色情视频

色情视频 today announced a $500 million fundraising campaign to support its students and faculty and transform 色情视频 into a leading national research university.  

鈥�The Campaign for 色情视频 will leverage the university鈥檚 unique strengths and its synergy with the San Diego region in support of our students, our faculty, our staff and our community,鈥� said 色情视频 President Elliot Hirshman. 鈥淎t a time when state support has been reduced, this effort is critically important to ensure 色情视频 can continue to provide a high-quality educational experience for the next generation of students.鈥�

The Campaign for 色情视频 is the first university-wide fundraising campaign in 色情视频 history. It includes all of 色情视频鈥檚 colleges, 色情视频 Athletics and KPBS. Hirshman said private funding is needed by the university to attract and retain top faculty, support innovative programs and assist talented students through scholarships, as well as move the university forward with strategic investments in people and programs.

鈥溕�情视频 is well on its way to its goal of raising $500 million,but the most crucial stage of the campaignis still ahead of us. 鈥�

Campaign goes public

Today鈥檚 announcement launches the 鈥減ublic phase鈥� of what is expected to be a seven-year fundraising campaign. For the past four years, campus leaders have worked behind the scenes to secure large leadership gifts from the university鈥檚 top donors. To date, this effort has netted more than $270 million in gifts and pledges, setting university fundraising records along the way.  

鈥淭hanks to the generosity of our closest alumni and friends, 色情视频 is well on its way to its goal of raising $500 million but the most crucial stage of the campaign is still ahead of us,鈥� said Costco CEO and founder Jim Sinegal, 鈥�59.  

With the theme 鈥淟eadership Starts Here,鈥� 色情视频 will be reaching out to the entire community with messages about the university鈥檚 important mission and how their support is essential to the university鈥檚 success.

Hirshman, who became 色情视频鈥檚 eighth president in July, said there has never been a better time to re-engage 色情视频鈥檚 250,000-plus alumni 鈥� 60 percent of whom live in San Diego County.

Hirshman cites 色情视频鈥檚 strong academic reputation, life-changing research, community engagement and athletic success as evidence of 色情视频鈥檚 momentum. The Campaign for 色情视频 will propel the university forward by raising funds to support student scholarships, faculty endowments and academic programs, and secure San Diego State鈥檚 future as a university with significant regional, national and global impact.

Campaign goals

The Campaign for 色情视频 has four distinct initiatives aimed at enriching students鈥� lives and strengthening the economy of the San Diego region:

• Engaging the Region: San Diego State produces the future leaders for critical local industries such as bio-tech, communications, hospitality and tourism, construction management and border studies. The university鈥檚 strong ties to the San Diego community are evident in its initiatives supporting K-12 education, student veterans and more. The Campaign for 色情视频 will support existing programs and create new initiatives that enhance San Diego鈥檚 reputation as a catalyst for innovation and discovery.
• Leading Innovation and Discovery: The research productivity of 色情视频 faculty creates numerous opportunities for students to participate in life-changing projects on and off campus in areas such as cardiovascular research, vaccine development and sustainability. The Campaign for 色情视频 will seek support to create additional endowed chairs, thereby attracting leading scholars to enrich the academic life of the campus and enhance the value of an 色情视频 degree for alumni and current students.
• Competing Globally: 色情视频 leverages its strategic location on the Pacific Rim and the border of Latin America to foster a highly diverse, globally focused culture of research and scholarship. The Campaign for 色情视频 will increase scholarship opportunities for students seeking to study abroad, build endowments to attract faculty with international expertise in multiple disciplines and strengthen programs that tap the potential of students to take their place in our global society.
• Fueling Potential: In the last 20 years alone, 色情视频 has conferred more than 145,000 undergraduate, graduate and doctoral degrees. That鈥檚 145,000 lives transformed by the power of an 色情视频 education. Gifts to the Fuel Potential Scholarship Campaign, part of The Campaign for 色情视频, ensure that 色情视频鈥檚 most deserving students have access to the transformational power of a college degree and create a healthy culture of philanthropy among the youngest Aztecs. More than $32 million has already been raised for the Fuel Potential Scholarship campaign.
