You’ve heard of March Madness, but now it’s time for Macular Madness! This is our first year for this new class giving challenge that will support student scholarships.

Tournament Information

• This challenge is based on participation percentage, not dollar amounts. The minimum gift to participate is only $5.
• There are six rounds and each time a round ends, the classes with the higher donor percentage will advance. Round 1 opponents are grouped based on class donor count.
• The giving percentage for each class will then reset to zero and classmates will have to participate again to bring that percentage back up to compete against their new opponent.
• You are in the class for the year you received your first degree from our college. A few classes are grouped together so that we could include graduates as far back as 1946.
• All dollars will go to the College of Optometry’s general scholarship fund, which is essential in recruiting new top students and awarding those in upper classes who have financial need.

• Round 1: March 1-11 – 64 Classes
