Bard College at Simon's Rock: the Early College

Invest in Simon's Rock

Our mission is to nurture bright, highly motivated young people who are ready for an intellectual challenge at an earlier age.

Philanthropic support makes our community possible.

Donor contributions fund scholarships, help to attract and retain exceptional faculty, and assist in preserving our beautiful 275-acre campus and its facilities. Founded in 1966, Simon’s Rock has emerged as a leader in the early college movement and a cultural touchstone for our local community in the Berkshires. Your commitment helps us to continue our over 50-year legacy.

 

You [at Simon’s Rock] are fighting for a cause, which is the improvement of the way we educate young people in this country.

—Leon Botstein, president of Bard College, 2015 Simon’s Rock commencement address.

Our Legacy is Our Community
