ۿ۴ýUniversity is proud to announce a $6.2 million gift from the Tracking Foundation to support student scholarships through the Stephen Feinberg Scholarship Program.

“ۿ۴ýUniversity ۿ۴ý are our most significant investment,” said Dr. Mark A. Brown, President and CEO. “The ongoing support from the Tracking Foundation and more specifically, Trustee and ۿ۴ýalum Greg Nixon, helps to ensure our ۿ۴ý have the resources they need to complete their education and leave ۿ۴ýprepared to help solve the nation’s problems.”

With the gift, the Tracking Foundation, in collaboration with Greg Nixon, has donated almost $20 million in the last five years.

“The Tracking Foundation’s support for the next generation of scholars helps to ensure those high academic achievers who need financial support are allowed to continue their college careers uninterrupted,” said Nixon. “We are committed to supporting brilliance in this way.”

As ۿ۴ýexpands academic programs to include introducing the new aviation degree program or expand research initiatives that include breast cancer in the Black Belt South, support through the Feinberg Scholarship Program helps to provide ۿ۴ý with support to focus on their research or studies.

“This kind of ongoing commitment from our Trustees is what helps keep the ۿ۴ýfoundation strong,” said Norma Clayton, ۿ۴ýBoard of Trustees Chair. “Our gratitude for The Tracking Foundation and Mr. Nixon is ongoing.”
