JMU will make a significant announcement at 7:00 p.m., which will be highlighted by a brief fireworks display. The university’s second ever comprehensive fundraising campaign will be launched by President Jonathan Alger on the steps of Wilson Hall.

In the event of rain, a decision will be made by Wednesday morning to relocate the event to the Festival Conference and Student Center. This announcement, along with additional information will be available at www.jmu.edu/news.
