In celebration of Giving Day 2023, on February 23rd we are celebrating the many ways that we Show Our Love for Maclay and are thrilled to introduce this year’s Maclay Sweethearts. These wonderful, heartfelt, and longstanding connections are part of what makes Maclay’s campus and our time together on it so special. We have many members of our community who come to work each day with their own Maclay “Sweethearts” and hope you will enjoy hearing their stories about their favorite memories together on campus. #showyourloveformaclay
