Why should I give to the University Fund?
The value of a Marshall education — Marshall University provides students an education of the highest caliber. Marshall attracts bright, motivated students who welcome the opportunity to collaborate with dedicated faculty. These students thrive in an environment enlivened by the variety of class/degree offerings, the latest and greatest technologies including online course, and the desire to give back to the community. Marshall students graduate with much more than a degree; they welcome learning opportunities and gain knowledge and experience they will use throughout their lives.
High standards for its students; high standards for itself — Just as Marshall University pushes its students to great achievement, the University strives to provide everything necessary to maintain a high quality learning environment. Only a portion of the cost of educating each student is paid for by tuition and state funding; for the rest, the university relies on private support from alumni and others. Marshall depends on gifts from alumni, parents, friends and the Marshall community to give students the quality, well rounded educational experience that has always been its focus.
Show you care for Marshall — As an alumnus or friend of Marshall University, you know that Marshall is a special place. Your education and Marshall experience was supported by gifts from others—and now you can return the favor. No matter the size of your gift, by supporting Marshall you are giving others the opportunity for a similar experience, whether from the classroom or at a University sponsored campus event.
Every gift is important — Each gift to the University Fund is important. Gifts impact the lives of students by providing a margin of excellence at Marshall University. Giving to the University also gives alumni an opportunity to participate at Marshall and to help today’s students receive the top-notch, affordable education they deserve while maintaining the integrity of the degree you received as a graduate of Marshall.
