NDSU Faculty & Staff Campaign

Imagine, Inspire, Impact!

Faculty and staff are invited to Imagine, Inspire, Impact! by participating in NDSU's 2008-2009 Faculty and Staff Campaign. Make an impact in your campus community and help make an NDSU education possible for deserving students. College rankings for grants, research projects and programs use faculty and staff participation ratings when determining our institutional rating. As NDSU's ratings increase, so does the value of the University!

You may make a gift to the Greater University Fund or to the college, department, scholarship, or other specific fund of your choosing.

If you prefer, here are some additional gift opportunities directly related to faculty and staff  in the College of Agriculture, Food Systems, and Natural Resources; the NDSU Extension Service; the ND Agricultural Experiment Station; and the Northern Crops Institute.

Note: You must indicate your choice on the pledge card. "My gift is designated to the: ___________________________________." Otherwise, your gift will be applied to the greater university fund and not a specific fund.
