You will see many exciting changes as Ruth, al o editor of this magazine, plans and coordinates the college's publications, community relations, advertising, publicity, and the many other strategic responsibilities of the Communications Office. Most heartening to the entire Wesleyan community is the progre of our three-year Leap of Faith campaign. We are extraordinarily grateful for our anonymous donors' decision to award their 15 million match based on our overall fundraising succes during that time - over $35 million.
