We are very proud of our standing as the second largest BNC chapter in the nation.
We have 883 members with 70 study groups. We thank each and every one of you for
maintaining your membership and keeping our chapter vibrant.
Your $60 annual membership goes to Brandeis University and the $18 study group fees remain at our chapter to
pay for operating expenses. Since its founding in 1948, BNC has raised nearly $150 million in support of
Brandeis.
Our special events now raise money for BNC's new multi-year campaign for the Brandeis National Committee
Professorship in Engineering. This supports a new engineering program that will immerse students in engineering
culture and provide them with the essential skills to become engineers and design solutions to complex problems.
