Clambake, New College of Florida’s signature fundraising event, raised more than $530,000—the most ever in the event’s history. Nearly 400 people attended the event on Nov. 4 on New College’s bayfront campus. One hundred percent of the funds raised are directed to student scholarships. The New College Foundation provides more than $2 million annually for student scholarships, faculty and student research, and campus enhancements.
