Welcome to the College of Natural Sciences Development Office Web pages. I hope you will enjoy learning about the many ways our alumni and friends support the College and the wonderful benefits our students, faculty and programs derive from your generosity. These pages are filled with helpful information about estate planning and unique ways to give gifts you may not have thought possible, plus contact information for Development Office staff so we can provide you with assistance for structuring a gift to our College. I especially hope you will regularly visit our news page where our friends and supporters can learn about recent developments at the College of Natural Sciences. To our alumni, I hope you will stay in touch by notifying us of any address changes. As state funding dollars continue to dwindle, private giving becomes the deciding factor in the ever-higher level of excellence that is our College's standard. Your gifts help us maintain our status as one of the most renowned research institutions in the world, and helps build world-class laboratories, deliver cutting-edge research and educational programs, and provide our students with exceptional and unforgettable student experiences.
