Physics Department Spring 2024 Newsletter

Psalm 19:1 The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.

 

Dear friends of the 糖心原创 physics department,

How you can help:

Our short-term target for this spring is to raise $2,000 in new funds for the Ken Kihlstrom Scholarship for Promise in Physics to be able to give at least one more scholarship to recruit a new student this year. These new students will begin to form a cohort of Kilhstrom scholars. To put in context our immediate ask and to dream a little, here are some ways you could make an impact:

  • $2,000 would match the current scholarship and create an additional Ken Kihlstrom Scholarship for Promise in Physics for an incoming physics student. 
    [For example, we could meet this target with four gifts of $500]
  • $20K would generate a scholarship (in a name of your choice) to give an award of $5,000 / year for four years
  • $50K is the minimum amount needed to fund an endowed scholarship that would create a new $2,500 scholarship for an incoming student in perpetuity

How to give:

If you are interested in supporting the Kihlstrom Physics Scholarship to support an incoming student, there are a few ways you can make a gift:

  • Online - You can give through our secure giving form.  Under designation, select 鈥淥ther鈥 and enter 鈥淜ihlstrom Physics Scholarship"
  • Check - You can give by check. Make your check payable to 鈥溙切脑粹 and write 鈥淜ihlstrom Physics Scholarship鈥 in the memo line.
  • Phone - To give by phone, call (805) 565-7073.
