Alumni
There are many ways to support the Department of Radio-TV-Film, some of which may even allow donors to provide more than they realize. Gifts to Radio-TV-Film may be made as unrestricted support or as support for a purpose that you designate. Private support encourages innovation and provides new opportunities. It makes possible undergraduate scholarships and graduate fellowships, endowed professorships, and state of the art facilities. Through major gifts our Department is able to pursue new programs and initiatives that our state-assisted funding may not make possible.
GIVE UNRESTRICTED FUNDS
Unrestricted funds present the College the greatest flexibility to meet its most imperative needs and promising opportunities.
CREATE AN ENDOWMENT
The funds are invested by the UT System, and the interest generated by that investment is used for the purpose you wish to support—financial aid, merit awards for students, supplemental salary support for faculty, program support, research and more. A portion of the income is re-invested each year, enabling the endowment to continue to grow and provide a predictable, stable stream of income over time.
