A New Society for Today's Visionaries


Standing in a grove near Nazareth College's eastern boundary, the Council Oak tree has been a graceful reminder of stability and growth for generations of students who have come to Nazareth in pursuit of knowledge, discovery, and experience.


The College's founders, five visionary women who understood the need for better access to higher education, turned dreams into reality for thousands of students by placing a college degree within reach. In honor of those early leaders – and all who followed – Nazareth invites you to become a charter member of the Council Oak Society, recognizing, as our founders did, the impact today's support will have on tomorrow's scholars.
