Thanks to the remarkable generosity of more than 23,000 alumni, community friends and campus supporters over the past six years, Salisbury University’s Campaign 2012 exceeded its original goal by nearly $15 million. During a festive celebration of “Taking Excellence to New Heights” on Friday evening, February 3, Campaign Chair Henry Hanna announced that the highly successful fundraising initiative ended just inches from $40 million.

SU President Janet Dudley-Eshbach thanked donors, at all levels, for showing tremendous enthusiasm for the institution. Dr. Rosemary Thomas, vice president of University Advancement and executive director of the SU Foundation, Inc., applauded the work of staff and dedicated volunteers during the grassroots effort. University System of Maryland Regent Barry Gossett said the campaign truly elevated the University for the betterment of students’ lives, the community and the state.
