The faculty and staff at Dakota State University achieved giving history last  year, with a 76% participation rate—up from 54% last year. The national average for public universities is 25% and for private is 35%.

Last year's theme for the Faculty and Staff Annual Fund drive was "Inspire by Example," and they did just that. The money raised helps support the most important part of campus, the students!

"I give because I feel blessed to be able to work here. I like what we're about and I like the opportunity to be able to work in the classroom with the students we have. The students here come from hard working families and that ethic shows in the classroom. If I can support that a little bit through the scholarship campaign fund I consider it money well spent."
     -Mark Hawkes, College of Education

"Why Do I give to Scholarships at DSU? They're for the students if it weren't for the students, we all wouldn't have a job here and if I don't, who will? I want to give them something I didn't have an opportunity to have.
     -Carla Sudenga, DSU Athletics

"As a former scholarship recipient (many years ago!) I know how much this influenced my decision to attend Dakota State College. Now it's my chance to give back and to show my appreciation."
     -Kathy Engbrecht, Enrollment Services
