How Do We Get There?
The 3 - year, $3million endowment campaign will be in two stages with
distinct, but overlapping focuses:
Stage I - $1.5 million to supplement existing University support to
build a new class room/conference center, upgrade adult
housing, student dormitories and recreational facilities, and
to purchase laboratory/field instrumentation. Target ending
date - June 2010
Stage II - $1.5 million for scholarships and financial aid for students,
course development, and research on best teaching practices
in the field. Target ending date - January 2012
A $3million endowment would exist in perpetuity and would provide
in excess of $150,000 of spendable income annually. This would be
supplemented with additional revenue generated by new courses for
adults.
