Campaign Chairman Bill Gates Sr. ('50) made the official announcement that the UW surpassed its $2 billion goal January 26, 2007 after contributions totaling about $5 million came in.

Our 2006-07 annual fund drive is underway. Your gift to the annual fund will support scholarships for our students. This year, resident tuition is $16,255; only five years ago, it was $6,911. Due to the generosity of many, we have been able to increase the total amount awarded for student scholarships this fall. Your gift this year will enable us to provide even more assistance next year. Please join us in our journey to ensure that our students have every opportunity for academic and personal achievement by making a gift to the UW School of Law's Annual Fund.
