Development and Alumni Relations Operations supports Carleton in its mission to provide an exceptional undergraduate liberal arts education.

Our staff process donations, assist with stock and wire transfers, and send out receipts and year-end tax information; maintain, secure, and support our records containing information about our alumni, parents, and friends; and ensure that gifts to Carleton are recognized appropriately and used to benefit the College in the way our donors intend.

The varied specialties within the department aim to accomplish this by building relationships with and providing services to our internal and external customers in a timely, accurate, and confidential manner.
