Announcing the STC Booster Fund Challenge!
The first $1100 in gifts to the STC Booster Fund will be matched dollar for dollar by Rob Olson. If we meet this challenge, we will raise the final $2200 needed in order to endow the STC Booster Fund at the $25,000 level so it can provide permanent, sustainable funding to support STC students and activities.
The STC Booster Fund has been established to support student technology center activities that build a network to support the students, staff and mission of the Student Technology Center. For example, this fund could sponsor reunions of STC alumni, stipends for STC student’s employees and awards for outstanding service to the STC. Another focus of this fund is to help connect current students with past STC graduates and help foster professional connections and bridge professional opportunities.
Since it's founding, the STC's mission is to support the advancement of student knowledge of technology from fundamental skills to advanced applications.
The STC is a place where students attend workshops, gain technology support through peer tutoring, and make use of other advanced equipment and software to promote their learning or creative needs. Working with faculty from all disciplines, the STC compliments Western’s curriculum by offering training in support of course requirements.
