But for many promising students, financial and other barriers stand in the way. Alumni and friends who share our commitment to making a CAHSS education possible for students from all backgrounds and walks of life will enable more to take part in the transformational education experience offered here today. You can make a difference in a number of ways:
Attract the best and brightest. Merit scholarships help us recruit a diverse pool of Minnesota’s top scholars.
Aid students from middle-income families. New scholarships will ease the path to graduate on time and with less debt for undergraduates who must fill in gaps in funding with loans and more work hours.
Make college possible for more. Support scholarships for students who otherwise would not have the financial resources to afford college, students who are underrepresented on campus, and students who are first in their family to attend college.
Create an enriching, rewarding student experience. Students need an environment in which they can thrive both in and out of the classroom. Funding study abroad experiences, fine arts
performances off campus, scholarships for unpaid internships, and services that address both physical and mental health are just a few of the ways to support students outside of the classroom.
Thank you to all of you that are already supporting the College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences. If you are interested in learning more about how you can partner with us to support current and future students, please contact me.
