Giving Back

The School of Meteorology has limited general funds and modest scholarship and fellowship funds from which many student educational and professional development needs are met. The only sources of these funds are gifts from alumni and friends. Each year, the requests for assistance far exceed the amounts available.

Support a specific need with a gift of any amount and make a real difference in the lives of current and future students in the School of Meteorology. Below are examples of the school's needs. Gifts can be targeted to any of these items.
