Support the College of Education or a Department

The Michael D. Eisner College of Education is composed of six departments: Deaf Studies, Educational Leadership and Policy Studies, Educational Psychology and Counseling, Elementary Education, Secondary Education, and Special Education. These departments are the core of our activities and academic mission.

Donations of unrestricted funds allow the Dean and the departments to work smoothly, foster innovation, and provide the opportunity for growth. They unlock potential and allow the faculty and staff to do what they’re best at, empowering student success. They also help the departments weather crises without losing momentum. 

Giving to a department in an unrestricted way allows the chair and faculty to determine the best use of the funds within the priorities for the department as related to current needs and opportunities. These might include immediate needs like technology or materials, strategic scholarships, research opportunities for faculty or graduate students, travel and expenses related to event or conference opportunities for faculty, staff, or students, or emergency grants to help students in need stay enrolled. As we know from recent events, change can come quickly and the agility of unrestricted funds allows the departments to respond in a timely manner.
