University students currently graduate with the highest
accumulated debt of any higher education institution in
Maryland. This fund-raising initiative will dramatically affect that statistic and allow SU to help its students earn a degree
without accumulating the financial burden. Additionally, our
award-winning and dedicated faculty deserve additional funding
and recognition for their outstanding efforts and achievements. |
| This 165,000
square foot complex is scheduled for
completion in fall 2008. State appropriations will fund the
lion’s share of the project costs, but dollars are desperately
needed for technology, faculty and facility enhancements. This
complex will aid SU in educating tomorrow’s teachers while
enhancing the technological aspects of nearly every discipline
on campus. |
Perdue School programs have been ranked in the top 20 percent
of all schools of business in the United States. Its new home will
create a flexible educational environment with high-performance technology and interactive classrooms.
The Perdue Foundation’s $8 million gift challenges SU to raise
an additional $4 million to make this project whole |
| One of
Salisbury University’s greatest needs is enhanced library
facilities and collections. Each and every student that passes
through the halls of SU utilizes Blackwell Library. Many are
disappointed by the technology and resources
currently available. SU is making the addressing of this
shortcoming a major priority. Campaign 2012 intends
to facilitate much-needed funding for a variety of projects. |
| Salisbury University serves the Eastern Shore community
as a cultural beacon with stellar programs such as the
Salisbury Symphony Orchestra, the Bobbi Biron Theatre Program and University
Galleries. A new fine and performing arts center is projected
for the SU of the future. This initiative will serve as a jump
start in funding this land-mark facility and enhancing its
programs. |
Sea Gull
student-athletes enjoy a tradition of excellence, yet even with
their winning records, our teams are at a tremendous
disadvantage. Our current athletic facilities do not provide the
infrastructure to live up to our
performance standards and reputation. This campaign focus will
serve as a catalyst for enhancements and continued success. |
| Enhancing
campus esthetics and improving opportunities for academic and
community outreach constitute this campaign component. Campus
enhancements planned include green space improvements, property
acquisitions and modified pedestrian areas. Outreach efforts of
SU range from public broadcasting to civic engagement, regional
history to international mediation and more. It is hoped that
Campaign 2012 can address both of these priorities. |
