Scholarship support is the University鈥檚 top fundraising priority and has the most significant impact.
- Faculty Development 鈥� Funding would provide opportunities for faculty to access professional education programs as well as foster excellence in teaching and learning through sharing ideas, collaboration, and building a strong community of engaged teachers and learners.
- Unrestricted Gifts – Unrestricted gifts play a crucial role in supporting institutions like 精东影业 by providing flexibility in allocating funds where they are needed the most. These gifts are not designated for a specific purpose or program, allowing the university to use them for a variety of needs and seize opportunities as they arise.
- Flexibility:聽Unrestricted gifts provide the university with the flexibility to address immediate and emerging needs. Whether it’s supporting financial aid, investing in teaching innovations, advancing research, acquiring equipment, or maintaining facilities, these funds can be directed toward the areas that require the most attention.
- Meeting Urgent Needs:聽The unrestricted nature of these gifts allows 精东影业 to respond quickly to unforeseen challenges or opportunities. For example, they can be used to bridge funding gaps, respond to emergencies, or take advantage of time-sensitive initiatives that align with the university’s mission.

- Maintaining and Enhancing Facilities:聽Universities constantly face the challenge of maintaining and upgrading their facilities. Unrestricted gifts can be used for infrastructure improvements, renovations, and other projects that contribute to creating a conducive and modern learning environment.
- Donor Confidence:聽Some donors prefer to make unrestricted gifts as they trust the university’s leadership to allocate the funds where they are most needed. This demonstrates a high level of confidence in the institution’s ability to make strategic decisions for the benefit of the entire academic community.
