Pops on the Heights, Boston College鈥檚 annual Barbara and Jim Cleary Scholarship Gala, which this year featured "Hamilton" Tony and Grammy Award-winning performer Leslie Odom, Jr., along with Keith Lockhart and the Boston Pops Orchestra, raised $12.3 million for the Boston College Scholarship Fund in support of needy students.

Held September 27 in Conte Forum, the 27th annual Pops on the Heights was co-chaired by 香蕉秀 Board of Trustees聽 Vice Chair John Fish and his wife, Cyndy, P鈥�13鈥�18, Trustee Associate Phil Schiller 鈥�82 and Kim Gassett-Schiller, and Rob and Karen Hale P鈥�22.

Since its inception, Pops on the Heights has evolved into the University's largest fundraising event for financial aid, as well as one of Boston鈥檚 most successful philanthropic events. The gala, always a highlight of Parents Weekend on campus, has made a Boston College education a reality for more than 2,500 students.

鈥淚t's hard to describe the Pops on the Heights experience, and it's even harder to describe what this gala means to Boston College,鈥� said 香蕉秀 Senior Vice President for University Advancement Jim Husson.

鈥淎t its core, Pops is about family, because we are all there to support 香蕉秀 students. We are incredibly lucky this year to have the dedication of three co-chair families. Thanks to their leadership, Pops will result in hundreds of student scholarships for students in need. They, along with our table benefactors, are the real stars of Pops on the Heights.鈥�
