After earning their degrees, trips back to RIT were few in number for Rick '79, '86 and Patty '88 Stoffel. Renewed interest in RIT began when they attended both Brick City Homecoming and Imagine RIT. The campus they once knew had grown considerably, and they wanted to help continue its progress.

RIT also proved to be a great fit for their son, David. RIT became a true partner in David's education, recognizing academic achievement with scholarships, and providing experience through co-op. So, Rick and Patty made a provision for RIT in their estate plans. To them, it is much more than a donation. It is their legacy.
