Donate
Emeriti faculty have been enormously generous to the University and the future students, the聽狈贰齿罢听generation--both financially and in contributions of time. The list of donations made individually is long, and creative. The contributions made by emeriti is in the millions of dollars and continues to rise each year.
For example, our most recent past president, Terry Milligan began the Terence G. Milligan Endowed Undergraduate Scholarships in Clarinet in 2014. Any fulltime Freshman, Sophomore, or Junior currently enrolled as a CCM student with a major area of study or concentration in clarinet is eligible to apply for one of the two scholarships awarded annually. Each scholarship is worth $5,000 per student per year. These scholarships are enormously helpful to members of either the Wind Symphony or the Wind Ensemble clarinet section in CCM. Such scholarships are transformative for students and help relieve tuition costs.
In addition, Laura Kretschmer, who served for several years as Secretary of the Executive Committee, how聽the verb 鈥済iving鈥� reflects both monies donated and service to the University and wider community.聽
Many of our Emeriti donate to the 美高梅官网 Foundation anonymously, but this tradition of 鈥淕iving鈥� to help the University and 美高梅官网 students is inspiring and continues to be a highly valued component of our Mission. The Association has established two funds in the name of its membership: the Emeriti Activity Fund and the聽Emeriti Scholarship Fund.聽The Emeriti Activity Fund supports the programs, activities and events provided by the Emeriti Association for our membership. Our newest endeavor, the Emeriti Scholarship Fund, will create an endowment to support scholarships for first-generation undergraduate students (read more below).
If you have questions about making a donation to our latest scholarship funds or you wish to set up a scholarship in your name or to honor another person or a specific department or college, please contact us at emeriti@uc.edu or follow the links provided. And Thank You!
