The Annual Fund

In 2005, the NSU Foundation held its first comprehensive Annual Fund Drive, surpassing the original goal of $75,000. With the overwhelming support and generosity of the NSU Foundation Board of Directors, student volunteers, and thousands of alumni and friends, we raised over $82,000.

In 2008, You may have been among the over 40,000 Alumni and friends who received a letter outlining goals of the Annual Fund Drive, and in the Fall you may have received a call during our phone-a-thon. If you participated with a gift to the NSU Foundation, please accept our sincere thanks. If you haven’t yet had the opportunity to give, we encourage you to do so. Regardless of the amount you pledge, your gift has long range impact through student scholarships, faculty development, and campus improvements.

The Annual Fund generates consistent, unrestricted annual gifts to use where the University has the greatest need. With tighter annual budgets, NSU must look for ways to make up for funding shortfalls. The goal of the Annual Fund is to establish a dependable group of donors who will continue to support NSU on a yearly basis. Our goal is to build upon this core group each year.

Senior Class Gift

The Senior Class Gift Program was revived in 2005 and gives graduating students the opportunity to make a small gift to a project chosen by the graduating class. The winning project, or gift, will be a lasting tribute to the Senior Class. It will be just one other way that they were able to make their mark on our great campus.

Just as important as having a physical project, it is our hope that these future alumni will recognize the importance and significance of giving back to their alma mater. We hope to instill early on the philanthropic spirit that is so vital to Northeastern State University.

Class Gifts

The Senior Class of 2007 elected to preserve the Kiowa Buffalo Hunt mural (circa 1934) in Seminary Hall. The 8-foot by 14-foot mural is a priceless piece of art and of great historical significance to our campus. Preserving this cultural artwork for NSU campus will be a lasting tribute to the Class of '07. View photos of the dedication

The Senior Class of 2006 selected “Campus Maps” as their Senior Class Gift, choosing to place campus maps at prominent locations around the NSU campus as a lasting tribute to the Class of ‘06. This project will be completed as soon as university approved map reproductions are available.

The 2005 Senior Class chose to restore the historic Seminary Hall Clock Tower. Seminary Hall was built in the 1800s as a female seminary school. The main focus of the building is the Clock Tower, symbol for NSU for the past 100 years.
