This #GivingTuesday, we are saying thanks to those who have given to the Walton College.
Without your private gift support, our faculty, students and programs would not have been able to achieve what they have in 2016. For example, 88 percent of job-seeking undergraduates were employed at graduation during the past academic year. Additionally, 31 percent more students were able to participate in international experiences than the past academic year. Entrepreneurship teams won $136,500 in prizes at business plan competitions this year. Finally, Walton College continues to rank in the top 30 public undergraduate business schools according to U.S. News & World Report. We have a lot to be thankful for this year, and none of it would be possible without the support of our generous donors. We know you will continue to see the return on your investment with Walton College.
Whether you are a first-time donor or loyal contributor, please consider a gift to the Walton College this #GivingTuesday. Giving is the best part of the holiday season, and nothing is more rewarding than making a difference in another’s life through the gift of education. Support of student scholarships, study abroad, academic departments like accounting, the portfolio management program, entrepreneurship support, and faculty research all help improve the education a student receives at Walton College. We are truly grateful for your generosity. It really matters.
