Our alumni base and friends of the University always answer the rallying call for our Blue Raider family to invest in the people and programs that define the character of MTSU.
Here are some highlights from this past year:
Alumni support for the University reached a 10-year high with 7,984 total donors, an increase of 350 over the previous year, led by the College of Basic and Applied Sciences, which had an increase of 103 donors.
Our True Blue Give exceeded $1 million in support for the first time, with gifts from more than 1,450 donors. The College of Liberal Arts led our academic colleges, securing more than $275,000 for its programs.
More than 1,000 graduates this spring participated in our Senior Gift Challenge—a 43% participation rate. Their gifts were directed to 74 unique accounts on campus, with a number of gifts made in honor of influential faculty and staff.
Faye Brandon (Class of ’49), who played women’s basketball for the institution before MTSU’s official intercollegiate teams after Title IX, left a generous bequest to the University, funding two undergraduate scholarship funds.
