English

 Our students have been through a lot this year. 

They've been adjusting to online learning or "Hyflex" classrooms. They've been masking up and distancing.

They've been searching around campus for a place to sit while they attend an online class in between face-to-face meetings. They've been shushing their roommates in the background and lifting their cats off their keyboards.

They spent the summer not knowing for sure when, whether, and how they'd be attending school this year. 

And in the midst of it all, they've been dealing with everything else the world has been throwing at us this year.

So we've decided that all of our fundraising in the English Department for One Ball State Day will go to undergraduate scholarships. We want to thank our students for hanging in there and give as many of them as we can a hand as they forge ahead to complete their educations.

Here is your chance to reward our students' perseverance and give them a boost.
