Campaign for Students

Without students, the Infinite Corridor is just a hallway.

The genius of MIT depends on the unique expressions of its students’ talents and personalities — the human factors. MIT students’ achievements result from, and depend on, the connections they make between their academic and extracurricular passions.

Theater production teaches a planetary scientist collaboration. Reading a musical score gives a neuroscientist insight into a neural process. Playing in a jazz group nurtures the creativity that turns an engineer into an inventor.

MIT students’ commitment to expanding their knowledge in classrooms, labs, studios, libraries, workshops, activity spaces, living groups, residence halls, and athletic facilities is matched only by an equally impressive ability to integrate their passion for academics with myriad other pursuits.

All of these pursuits depend on the support of the Institute’s friends. The Campaign for Students focuses that support where it will have a direct impact on MIT students — through the funding of undergraduate scholarships, the undergraduate commons, graduate student support, and student life.
