Circle of Excellence Roundup
October 3, 2003

The UW-Eau Claire Foundation welcomed 150 guests to the 2003 Circle of Excellence Roundup at UW-Eau Claire Oct. 3. The event was a jubilant kickoff to Homecoming weekend as these generous supporters of UW-Eau Claire's people and programs celebrated the ongoing success of the university's Fulfilling the Promise of Excellence campaign.

The Foundation's Circle of Excellence recognizes significant giving over time, beginning at a $10,000 threshold for individual gifts and $25,000 for organization gifts. Read more about the Circle of Excellence and other Foundation gift-recognition levels.
