Sharon McEwan ’64 has fond memories of her time at UC—most notably, the evening anatomy course on Plant Street, part of UC’s former Oneida Square campus, where she met her late husband, Robert. 
 

“He was an adult learner, and I was a full scholarship student,” she says. “We made some wonderful memories at Utica College.”

Today, McEwan, a retired teacher, loves returning to her alma mater—a place substantially different from the campus she recalls.

“I enjoy seeing how UC has changed over the years,” she says. “It’s wonderful to see the growth.”

By her participation in Planned Giving, McEwan hopes to honor her husband’s memory, and give students the same opportunities that scholarships afforded her.

“I know how much financial support can mean to students who have very little.”
