The John Monteith Legacy SocietyThroughout the University's history, planned and estate gifts from generous alumni and friends like you have been vital to Michigan's becoming one of the world's premier educational institutions. Today your support remains more important than ever.
John Monteith (1787-1868) was a founding father and president of the institution that became The University of Michigan. Monteith and other University founders had a vision for a great educational system that is shared today by members of the John Monteith Legacy Society. Donors who support the University Library with an estate plan gift provide the foundation for academic excellence in years to come. Through their generosity, Monteith Society members demonstrate so clearly how one generation can help the next.
