Ways to Help the College

Join the Rhodes Career Network
Increasingly, we need alumni and parents who are willing to help students secure meaningful internships and young alumni in their search for employment. Learn more about the Rhodes Career Network and register to help other members of the Rhodes Community.
Host an Event
Rhodes Chapters are becoming more active in their programming. With this increase in activity, there is need for volunteers who are able to host events in their homes or other places. Please consider signing up to help in this way.
Join and Use Networking Groups
The Rhodes Alumni Career Network in Facebook, just a shade over four months old, has 870 members at the time of this writing. Please join. If you are a member of LinkedIn, please join the Rhodes College Alumni Career Network Group.
Recruit Students
Call and congratulate high school seniors who have been accepted to Rhodes. In April, we try to make sure each accepted student receives a personal phone call, but we currently have more students than available alumni and can use your help. If you are interested in calling a few accepted students to congratulate them and share your Rhodes experience, please contact Lauren Sefton ’03 at your earliest convenience.
Support Student Travel Through Frequent Flier Miles
Would you like to help a student take advantage of an opportunity to study abroad, present a paper at an international conference or travel to an archive to do research? Please donate frequent flier airline miles by contacting Judy Pierce of Academic Affairs.
Make a Gift
If we were to divide this fiscal year (July 1 to June 30) into segments that were attached to funding sources, the revenues generated from student tuition and fees would have expired last month. Thus, we are now operating the College through June 30 on gifts secured through the Annual Fund and income from the endowment.
Many of you have already made a donation to Rhodes this year. For that, we are grateful. Your gift will be put to good use in providing students with superior educational opportunities and experiences to support their learning.
If you have not yet done so, please make a gift online. Rhodes needs your support to continue moving forward as an institution committed to excellence.
