Jerry Zwaga '68 and Carolyn Zwaga

As leaders in outright giving, the Zwagas have established the Jerry and Carolyn Zwaga Study Abroad Fund, which supports a student annually while he or she is overseas. Jerry and Carolyn have also made plans for a deferred gift, which will establish an endowment under the same name. Their deferred gift will provide future opportunities for classes and/or groups of students to participate in faculty-sponsored study abroad experiences. Knowing the profound impact of intercultural exchange, the Zwagas support Potsdam students in their pursuit of academic, social, and personal excellence.

"Carolyn and I have found travel abroad enriches our lives. We give to Potsdam so that students can experience a different perspective on life, culturally and politically."
