The Impact of Giving
Program Funds that Support Community Engagement and Program Enrichment
This fund supports the ACT Human Rights Film Festival, the only university-produced, international film festival in the Rocky Mountain West that is dedicated to human rights issues—put on by the Department of Communication Studies in the College of Liberal Arts.
Scholarships that Support Undergraduate Students Beyond their First Year of Study
This scholarship was created by a gift from Ann Gill, alumna, long-time faculty member, and Department Chair from 1990 to 2001. The Gill Scholarship is awarded to an undergraduate major who has completed at least 60 credits at Colorado State, demonstrated creativity, initiative, and concern for human rights and equality.
