Good morning – I hope this note finds each of you doing well.
Please allow me to extend a request to this special group – on Tuesday, March 30, we will be hosting ZAGS Give day - calling on our community to reflect on how “Zags have shown up for them” and to support our students. We have held this virtual blitz in March for a number of years, given the great energy of March Madness, and in acknowledgement of our great students! And this year – fingers crossed – it could be a potential game day for our ZAGS! But before we get to that, please read the following…
“Many of us (in this email) were fortunate to go to school at Gonzaga University - so many years ago. The Jesuits and the lay teachers of the day were very serious teachers, but most of them were patient and helpful. They put up with occasional hijinks by the Butte Rats, but eventually became our good friends. When we graduated with our degrees, we were so proud - Gonzaga Proud!”

“Gonzaga shaped how I view the world and my contributions to it. I support Gonzaga out of gratitude, as well as to ensure that future students have an opportunity to experience what I did. I want to help them make the world a better place.” – Shared by a member of this email thread
