The George I. Alden Trust has awarded Medaille College a $60,000 grant to update laboratory and science equipment in the Downey Science Building on the College’s Buffalo Campus. 

The Downey Science Building, which opened in 1987, contains a chemistry lab, two biology labs, an animal technology lab, and faculty offices.

The George I. Alden Trust, located in Worcester, Mass., concentrates its support on independent colleges that demonstrate a “combination of excellence, exciting programming, and efficient and effective administration.”

This grant demonstrates that The George I. Alden Trust recognizes and supports Medaille’s approach to education.
