As an academic institution we are focused on education, but we are also mindful of providing assistance to our surrounding communities. Our support of United Way of Logan County is one way to help make our neighboring communities stronger, one way to provide a helping hand to those community residents in need.  We are pleased to be a part of this effort.”
