tuition freedom week news release

NEWS RELEASE March 19, 2015 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact Information: John Grice, assistant director of annual giving Office: 405.385.0723 Email: [email protected] OKLAHOMA STATE UNIVERSITY TUITION FREEDOM WEEK REVIEW The Oklahoma State University Foundation and Student Foundation celebrated the university’s essential state and private supporters March 2W6 during Tuition Freedom Week. Students engaged in a week of campuswide events showcasing the scholarships, facilities, faculty positions and programs OSU maintains thanks to valued donors. The campaign also educated students on the importance and magnitude of OSU’s philosophy while allowing them to show their appreciation to donors. Hashtags #OSUTFW and #IHeartDonors create a wave of appreciation that capped the campaign. On average, finances from tuition and fees fund 75 percent of an academic year at OSU. Donations help cover the costs needed for students to fund their education, sustain 306 endowed faculty positions and foster an innovative campus atmosphere. President Burns Hargis says too much of a burden in tuition and fees turns students away from higher education. “It’s great for the legislature to recognize the fact that their appropriations are really making a difference, and it’s especially nice for our donors,” Hargis said. Students like Emalee Williams, a public relations major and first generation college student, are directly impacted by donor support. She is able to pursue her dreams of becoming an associate for a nonprofit organization thanks to gracious contributors who provide college opportunities.
