The late David C. Mandeville '45, a long-time benefactor of the College, has left approximately $5 million to the College through a bequest, it was announced by Union President Roger H. Hull.

“That David was so generous comes as no surprise to anyone who knew him,” Hull said. “He had been a faithful and generous donor to Union and a number of organizations for a number of years. His support of Union will have a tremendous impact on furthering this institution.”

Mandeville, who died Sept. 16, 1996 at the age of 74, had pledged $1
million for the Nott Memorial's Mandeville Gallery in memory of his father and
grandfather, both of whom were also Union graduates.

The balance of his bequest will create the David C. Mandeville
Scholarship Fund.
