Millersville University urges alumni donations to support scholarships, study abroad and campus projects
Summary
A university spokesperson framed alumni gifts as a means to preserve tradition while funding scholarships, internships, study-abroad and campus renovations; the brief appeal did not specify a campaign name, date or gift process.
A Millersville University spokesperson asked alumni and supporters to give to the university to fund scholarships, study abroad, internships and campus renovations, saying donations link alumni memories with student opportunities.
"At Millersville University, tradition is more than a memory. It's who we are. It's the foundation of our identity and an ongoing source of strength that drives our future," the Millersville University spokesperson said. The remarks emphasized continuity and change: "While we honor our traditions, we also embrace transformation."
The spokesperson framed giving as a practical way to support students and programs, saying, "Your generosity builds bridges between alumni memories and student dreams. Traditions evolve into transformative experiences, funding study abroad, internships, and innovative projects that define a new era of learning." The appeal singled out scholarships and campus renovations as uses for gifts.
The remarks were brief — the three recorded segments total roughly 79 seconds — and did not include a date, a campaign name, specific dollar targets or instructions for how to donate. The spokesperson closed the appeal with an invitation: "Give to what you love."
Because the transcript offers a short, promotional message rather than an agenda-driven meeting discussion, no formal actions, motions or legal authorities were recorded in the text.
