The School of Information is proud to have a talented and diverse group of alumni and friends without the support of our alumni, faculty and staff, we would not be able to support our students. You can make an immediate impact on student success or faculty research by supporting academic scholarships, study abroad scholarships, undergraduate research, faculty research/scholarship, or programs.
