In the summer of 2005, an Oberlin College professor offered his own money as a way of challenging young alums to make a gift of their own to Oberlin. The resulting Challenge, and this website, resulted in a 74% increase in new donors to Oberlin. We're leaving this site up since the facts and figures laid out inside are still relevant, and in case anyone missed the Challenge the first time around.


Ready to help screw the US News rankings? Well as an added bonus, an Oberlin professor is kicking in $5 of his own money for each of you who make a gift by June 30. And for you conservatory and double-degree alums, the Dean of the Con is putting in an additional $5 per. Jump on the bandwagon and support your slice of Oberlin today!
