Donations can be made to provide annual awards to graduate students enrolled in the College of Education, faculty or staff. The quantity and amount can be determined by the donor as well as established guidelines for its awarding. Such awards may be given for outstanding research, teaching awards or graduate student tuition assistance. 

Annual awards are a naming opportunity and can be designated as the name of the donor(s) or someone they wish to honor. Annual awards are renewable as long as funding continues.  For the establishment of a permanent award, donors may want to consider an  endowed award —the gift that keeps on giving.
