Campaign climbs to new high

Strong support from alumni and friends of New Mexico State University enabled the university to reach the $150 million plateau of the “Doing What Counts” comprehensive campaign in record time. However, there are still unfunded needs that will have a great impact on the academic atmosphere for faculty and students alike. With that in mind, the campaign committee raised the overall campaign goal to $225 million.

“We are confident that, working together, the additional $75 million will be raised over the next three years to support academic chairs and professorships, endowments for scholarships and fellowships and complete the funding for our capital priorities,” says President Michael Martin. “I invite you to join me in ‘doing what counts’ to elevate New Mexico State University to a new level of excellence in education and research in the state, nation and world.”
