About the academy...
In the Elmira College tradition of giving, like the many classes before them, the Class of 1978 wished to endow a meaningful gift to the College in honor of its 40th Reunion in June of 2018. Following the untimely passing of a beloved classmate, Bette A. Mammone '78, in June 2017, the Class's legacy gift came into focus.
The gift established the Bette A. Mammone '78 Memorial Academy, which honors exceptionally successful alumni in business, leadership, community, educational, or philanthropic endeavors by inviting them to participate in an on-campus event with students, faculty, and other alumni. Alumni are selected based on their professional expertise and achievements, as well as dedication to charitable and community initiatives.
