Make your gift to the campus expansion now!
Our new expansion project and renovations include the addition of a full-service cafeteria and Admissions Welcome Center, a STEM wing featuring a 2,200 sq. ft. organic chemistry lab, as well as additional classroom, tutoring, and student networking space. This $14.4 million project has been funded to date, by the University, $1.6 million from our Student Government Association and through corporate and private donations. But we need your help! To realize our goal of completing the project, we must secure private gift commitments for $1.8 million from alumni and friends like you!
