Message from Dean Donnerstein
Welcome to SBS Developments.
There’s no doubt that these are rough financial times. But it is our job to ensure that our students are still receiving an excellent college education and that SBS faculty are conducting research that positively impacts the community and the world.
We are able to accomplish this because of you, our donors.
This issue of SBS Developments illustrates what SBS is able to achieve because of your generosity. For example, the new world-class Philosophy of Freedom Center is being funded by more than $6.5 million from foundations and individuals, such as Randy and Ken Kendrick.
Various foundations are supporting our work on helping cancer patients and their partners, alleviating hunger in Africa, decreasing alcohol use among Tucson Hispanic youth, and studying junk food marketing to children.
Richard and Wendy Gilman have funded a scholarship endowment in the School of Journalism. Our Magellan Circle patrons have provided 37 undergraduate scholarships, up from 24 last year.
Thank you for the various ways you have supported and, hopefully, will continue to support SBS. You are a critical part of our team, a partner in our mission to prepare students well for the next phase of their lives.
Sincerely,
Edward Donnerstein, Dean
College of Social and Behavioral Sciences
