Rausser College Giving Tuesday 2025 Campaign for Graduate Student Support

On December 2, the world will unite for Giving Tuesday—a global day dedicated to generosity. For Rausser College of Natural Resources, this is our moment to ensure our students and faculty can continue leading the way in climate change, biodiversity, and conservation research, despite growing uncertainty around higher education and the rapidly shifting research funding landscape.    

Graduate students drive the exchange of new ideas. Scientific advancement relies on brilliant insights and intellectual exchange. Rausser College graduate students make significant scientific breakthroughs when combining these new insights with the depth and breadth of knowledge offered by our award-winning faculty.

A gift to the Rausser College Graduate Student Support Fund enhances the experience of our graduate students as they form lasting partnerships with faculty working at the leading edges of their fields.

Your generosity ensures that we have the necessary resources to recruit and retain the most talented masters and doctoral students. Accepting admission to our programs can be financially challenging for many prospective students due to the high cost of living and offers from other universities. Gifts of all sizes can help us offer competitive funding for current and future graduate students. You can help ensure that these students have the financial means to pursue ambitious and demanding graduate research that benefits us all.
