President's Council: Robert Morris University President's Council | Robert Morris University

Supporting RMU

RMU4MarchlenAlcoaGiving

When you believe in something strongly, you can't help but want to be a part of it in some way. The members of the President's Council feel this way about Robert Morris University, and they set a valuable example for others to share in this vision.

The President's Council consists of members of the RMU family who have made a gift of $1,000 or more to the university during the previous fiscal year. Gifts are directed to virtually every area within the university—academic programs, educational resources, faculty development, capital projects, student research grants, scholarship support, and endowment growth. For just a little over $83 dollars a month, President's Council members know that they are part of something that changes the lives of our students and has a ripple effect on the region as a whole.

Benefits of Membership

As a member of RMU's President's Council, in addition to providing a quality education to our students, you're also part of an exclusive club with many worthwhile benefits. Each December, the annual President’s Council Dinner  honors that year's contributors, as well as students and alumni who have shown exemplary service to the university. 

2012HeritageWinner During the dinner, RMU's Heritage Award is presented to an alum for distinguished service and accomplishment in any field of human endeavor that brings honor to the recipient and the university. The Rising Star Award is presented to a graduating senior who demonstrates academic success, individuality, determination, passion, and potential in his or her field of study.

The 2012 dinner was held Dec. 4 at Heinz Field, where President Gregory Dell'Omo presented the Heitage Award to Norman E. Gottschalk Jr. '67, and the Rising Star Award to senior student Jasmine Tate.

Other benefits include:

  • Invitations to VIP seating and hospitality suites at sporting events in The 1921 Club
  • Invitations to the President's box for home football games
  • Special events at President Dell'Omo's residence
  • Annual alumni trips
  • New York City Weekend
  • Annual New York City Holiday dinner
  • RMU/Manchester Craftsmen's Guild Summer Jazz series

Annual giving has the greatest impact on our students and our campus. When you choose to give annually at the President's Council level, you’re making an investment in the future prosperity and growth of our region, which, in turn, has a positive impact on the community at large.

You're changing someone’s life is by giving them the gift of opportunity.
