Give to the College

Alumni and friends are a critical component to our success


Our college depends strongly on alumni and friends to augment state funding and support from research contracts and grants. Gifts from individuals, businesses, and foundations empower us to provide our students with the finest education possible. You can designate your gift to the college, to the department or school of your choice, or to special funds dedicated to providing students with field experience.

Your gift will enable the college to fund
its wide array of ongoing and diverse programs.

Department of Geography & Spatial Sciences


You can help provide outreach about geography by supporting the department in efforts like Geography Awareness Week, GIS Day and undergraduate mapathons. Understanding how place interacts with environmental data and society allows students to gain a fuller context of whatever it is that interests them.
