College of the Pacific
Professional development with experience that matters

The College of the Pacific offers a modern liberal arts and sciences education that prepares students for today's world. Our students contribute to a wide range of projects that benefit our communities, in and outside of the classroom. We strive to engage our students with meaningful, hands-on learning experiences from the moment they arrive on campus. From experiential learning programs to state-of-the-art technology, we pride ourselves on providing students with impactful opportunities. 


We encourage you to support our students’ path to success with a gift to one of the following programs during Pacific Gives 2022. You may also direct your gift to any department within the College of the Pacific. 


COP Retention Scholarship Fund

The College is dedicated to raising funds for retention scholarships to keep students at Pacific and on track to complete their degrees. Through the generosity of donors, the COP Retention Scholarship Fund provides awards of up to $10,000, which is the average gap in funding. Students may apply for a retention scholarship anytime throughout the year. 

Paul Winters Forensics Tournament Endowment

Excellence in Forensics is a Pacific tradition. For more than seven decades, Pacific has competed with distinction in intercollegiate speech and debate (forensics) at both regional and national levels. Show your support for the team and help continue the tradition with a donation to the Paul Winters Forensics Tournament Endowment. 


Art, Media X, Performance and Design

As technology and communication rapidly change, Pacific's Art, Media, Performance and Design interdisciplinary approach ensures students are ready for the challenges of the future. AMPD students learn a creative approach to graphic design, English, business, theater arts, digital and visual art, film, communication, computer science, engineering, and music industries.
