DID YOU MISS GIVING DAY? YOU CAN STILL MAKE A GIFT HERE!
College of Arts & Media

The academic units comprising the College of Arts & Media (CAM) are housed in several beautiful buildings across campus: the award-winning James & Nancy Gaertner Performing Arts Center, the newly opened Dana G. Hoyt Fine Arts Building, the Erica Starr Theatre Center, the Dan Rather Building, and the School of Music. 

These buildings provide active classrooms, research and technology labs, media studios and creation spaces, rehearsal and broadcast production areas, art galleries, computer labs, and live performance venues for dance, music, theatre and musical theatre.

All students enrolled in our degree programs are challenged to fulfill their dreams. CAM students pursue CREATIVE, ACTIVE, and MEANINGFUL career paths.

Please consider making a gift to the College of Arts and Media EnrichmentTo do so provides flexible funding that allows the Dean to respond to our students' greatest academic needs, including student research support and enrichment funds for student travel and creative programming.

You may also consider a gift to the College of Arts and Media Scholarship which provides scholarships to worthy students. Your generous donation will help us recruit and retain talented students. Your donation also provides scholarships that help "fill in the financial gaps" when individual college funds fall short along the way. Please help us make an education within CAM possible and accessible for all and help us recruit and retain our talented students. Your donations can change lives.
