SSU Kicks Off Fundraising Campaign – Live Coverage

fundraiserphoto

The University is experiencing its highest enrollment numbers ever. Yet, even with those numbers, SSU President Earl Yarbough said the school was forced to turn away 200 students because they were unable to afford tuition.

Besides helping with tuition, donations from the campaign will support new construction projects, membership in the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference and go toward the Homeland Security Program.

The goal is to raise $1 million in four months. The association is counting on pledges from alumni who want to give back to their alma mater.

Greetings Fellow Tigers!
This is advance notification regarding the SSUNAA Southern Regional Conference to be held in Charlotte, NC  March 12th & 13th  

There have been several alumni members inquiring about this meeting wanting to make reservations, etc.   Registration details regarding the conference are denoted below

The conference will be held at

Charlotte Marriott Executive Park

5700 Westpark Drive
Charlotte, NC 28217
USA

Reservations
 http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/CLTNC?groupCode=SVUSVUA&app=resvlink&fromDate=3/12/10&toDate=3/14/10
The 3-letter code is SVU if they call to book their room through the 800# (800-359-7961) and the 7-letter group code if they want to book online using the link below is: SVUSVUA

Rates with the Marriott have been renegotiated from $109.00/ Night to $89.00/Night, a $20.00 savings per night! 

Do not wait until last minute to book your rooms.  The SSUNAA has been extended until February 26th to secure rooms at these rates.  After that, they go through the roof! 

It’s far better to book now, and have to cancel, then to book too late and have to spend more on a higher room rate.
