Departmental Needs
Your gift makes a difference!
Support the Departments
Our academic departments and student programming are important to us, and your gift to support their work provides much-needed funds to enhance our academics, athletics, and extra-curricular programming. Student groups, such as ENACTUS and our athletic teams, are making a huge impact on the community and abroad by participating in mission trips and community projects. Academic departments are finding new ways to enhance the learning experience by creating hands-on experiences for students, conference and workshop participation, and trips that expand beyond the classroom environment.
