On April 13, more than 150 young alumni and guests from the Classes of 2003–06 gathered at the Racquet and Tennis Club on Park Avenue for the First Annual Young Alumni Fund Spring Benefit. An alumni host committee planned the $100 ticket benefit, and all tickets included a gift to the Columbia College Fund. The evening included a special reception with Dean Austin Quigley for Young Alumni Fund John Jay Associates (those who gave $250 or more to the fund), music, dancing and a raffle. The benefit was the first fundraising event hosted by and planned for young alumni to increase fund participation. The event yielded more than 150 gifts for the Columbia College Fund, including more than 50 first-time donors and 10 new John Jay Associates.
