2024 CAS Giving Day Priorities

 

1. Dean's Excellence Fund

The Dean’s Excellence Fund supports excellence in faculty teaching and student learning. Our goal is to provide every single student with an experiential learning opportunity. Whether it's a study abroad trip, field work, performances or research, these high-impact experiences get students out of the classroom and into real world settings, where they can apply their knowledge and develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills.  Gifts will also support faculty interdisciplinary teaching, evidence-based learning, curricular development, and pedagogical innovation. 

2. Student Excellence Fund

This initiative seeks to support student success for those students enrolled in the College of Arts and Sciences.  Examples include (but are not limited to) funding for: 

  • excursions for CAS students visiting important cultural establishments or participating in study abroad
  • CAS student-led clubs and organizations
  • stipends for CAS students undertaking valuable but unpaid or underpaid internships 
  • CAS students presenting research and creative works at professional conferences and festivals
  • incentives for faculty and staff who plan student success program initiatives outside of the regular curriculum

The goal is to raise enough money to create an endowed fund to sustain the College’s commitment to student success.

3. The Physics Department

For many years, the Adelphi Physics department has been a leader in physics at the undergraduate level in a number of different ways including research, teaching, and science outreach. Your support on Giving Day will ensure that students have the opportunity for hands-on learning experiences and research, utilizing new technologies that will set them up for success post graduation.
