Cutline 11/12/01 ST. LAWRENCE RECEIVES GRANT FROM ALCOA FOUNDATION - Bradford Catling, left, St. Lawrence University major gifts officer, accepts a check from Mark R. Pensgen, controller of Alcoa's Massena operations. The Alcoa Foundation has awarded the University a grant of $6,000 in support of scholarships for students. The Alcoa Foundation is a long-time supporter of St. Lawrence and has been instrumental in assisting the University in addressing high-priority needs on campus. The Foundation's $30,000 grant to Campaign St. Lawrence launched the Integrated Science Education Initiative (ISEI) in 2000, making it possible for the University to raise an additional $1,270,000 for the project. A previous grant established the Alcoa Foundation Cultural Events Program Fund, which hosts a performing arts event for the community on campus every year.
