Each year, Senior Challenge marks the transition from student to donor for most Knox students. This year, half of the Class of 2019 contributed $5,008.01 to support financial aid and scholarships, student experiences, and faculty recruitment and retention—earning a $3,000 challenge gift from Nyerere Billups ’99, a member of the Knox Board of Trustees.
