Some classes meet regularly for reunions; some come together only infrequently. As a way to give back to the college and help current students, classes often make a contribution to the college in honor of their class.
The Class Gift is given to Carolinas College collectively by the graduating students. Most often spearheaded by the Student Government Association, fundraising throughout the year (candy sales, book and jewelry sales) provides the resources for class gifts. The class gift provides an opportunity for students to leave behind a lasting contribution to benefit future students.
