Chancellor's Message

Opportunities abound
for university support

Dr. Vince Marsala
Chancellor

No public university can prosper and meet its full potential solely on the income generated from tuition and tax dollars. Through the LSUS Foundation and the LSUS Alumni Association, friends of the university have a number of opportunities to provide the additional support that is so vital to our school’s health and well-being.

This issue of LSUS News highlights several of those opportunities, as well as a new way our Office of Development has created to recognize the outstanding support we receive both in monetary contributions and in precious time donated.

This year the LSUS Alumni Association is spearheading the Annual Fund Campaign and is conducting the appeal through LSUS News. On Page 7, the deans of our academic colleges give you a summary of their programs and suggest ways you can help them fulfill their missions. There is also a convenient postage-paid return envelope attached to that page. I urge you to support LSUS by joining the Alumni Association and making a contribution to LSUS through one of the many programs outlined.

The Wall of Honor featured on Page 6 and in the photograph to the right of this column is located on the second floor of the Administration Building on the wall across from the Office of Development. The Wall recognizes such outstanding contributions to the university as heading the LSUS Foundation, endowing an academic chair or professorship, funding scholarships and membership in the Foundation. I invite you to stop by the Administration Building to peruse this most impressive display of recognition for those who support LSUS.
