Endowment and Resources



Loyal support for 142 years from dedicated individuals and the prudent and attentive management of funds by Doane’s trustees have resulted in an endowment fund of approximately $93.5 million (as of March 2014). Net tuition paid by the School of Arts and Sciences students provides less than half the necessary funds to operate the college. Income from the endowment provides scholarships to students, support for faculty, and contributes to the necessary operating budget of the college. However, the need is always great for additional gifts to meet current expenses.
