| FOWCA Receives Endowed Gift |
It is with great honor and privilege that Wellesley College announces the establishment of the Linda K. Vaughan Endowment Fund to support the Friends of Wellesley College Athletics (FOWCA). Linda is Professor Emerita and former chair of the Department of Physical Education, Recreation and Athletics (PERA) and was a pioneer in the establishment of FOWCA in 1986, serving as its first co-chair. Her generous gift was made in honor of Katherine "Kitsy" Rigler '61 who was the first alumna co-chair—with Vaughan—of FOWCA for its first seven years. Linda’s commitment will enhance FOWCA's organizational mission to support student-athletes and encourage a lifelong interest in fitness and athletics among students, alumnae and campus community members for years to come.
