Brian Franco ’24<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

One day, in the midst of this pandemic, when life bogged to a halt and felt particularly uncertain, and as the dreams of many high school seniors began to dim, Brian Franco\u2019s future leapt vividly into sight. The Lafayette High School senior remembers it well. It was the day he received his scholarship to Transylvania University. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Franco had been doing his best under the circumstances of sheltering in place, helping around the house, doing homework and exercising. And, in spite of the disappointment of not having a graduation ceremony and getting to say goodbye to his teachers and friends, he describes being focused on \u201cstaying positive about this situation and bettering myself while I have the time to do so.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Still, the frustration grew as he sensed the doors to his future closing around him. Then came the news from Transy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pioneer. Trailblazer. Class of 2024. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI was so happy,\u201d Franco says, recalling how it \u201creally changed everything for me.\u201d All at once he felt welcomed, valued, relieved and grateful to have the opportunity to build on the hard work he\u2019d invested in his high school career. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt means a lot to me to go to Transy,\u201d Franco adds, acknowledging the sense of belonging he feels and the promise within him renewed. \u201cI am looking forward to getting a great education where I will learn a lot of things and be in a familiar environment. I\u2019m excited to make new friends and have a liberal arts education,\u201d he continues. \u201cThe Transy community helped me realize that all my dreams are possible.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As he becomes part of this community, Franco \u2014 and his dreams \u2014 will soon be as essential to Transylvania\u2019s future as the beloved 240-year-old institution will be to his. New days will bring new opportunities, new relationships and a new understanding of what it means to be a Pioneer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can play an important role in fulfilling the dreams of all our Pioneers, enabling them to use what they learn at Transy to become the next generation of problem-solvers, leaders and decision-makers. During these challenging times, the future of Transylvania and young Pioneers like Brian Franco relies on the extraordinary support of all of us.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Save the date and give<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

So much can happen in a day. A life can change forever. An entire community can come together to sustain the institution we love and believe in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On May 29, the university will host its fourth annual Together for Transy<\/a> giving day. This event encourages all who care for our university to step forward to assist Pioneers and their alma mater. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Join us by making a gift. Be part of this life-changing day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
