Formed in 1937, the Maroon Club promotes the welfare of Lafayette through the support of its athletic program. The program has a tradition of being exceptionally strong because of three important ingredients-talented student-athletes, an excellent coaching staff, and the financial support of dedicated alumni, parents, and friends.

• Financial Aid: To help make the Lafayette Experience possible for our student-athletes, Maroon Club members supported financial aid allocations.
