Pomona College
Marston's 60-year active role in the founding, nurturing, and building of Pomona College included 26 years of chairmanship. His influence can be seen across the campus in a number of building projects he funded: the beautiful Marston Quadrangle, Smiley Hall, Florence Carrier Blaisdell Hall, and Lucien Frary Dining Hall.
George Marston would surely be happy to know that in 2018 Pomona was ranked as the most diverse college or university in the country; among enrolled students, 74% hail from out of state, 56% receive need-based financial aid, and 61% identify as a person of color or an international student.
