Become a Viticulture & Enology Associate
| | Dr. Jim Kennedy, Chair/Director |
The Viticulture and Enology Associates Campaign is an annual fund-raising campaign designed to support the activities within California State University, Fresno's Viticulture and Enology Program that fall outside of university and grant funding. We use this source of funding to promote our research and teaching programs and to extend our activities to the grape and wine industry. With industry support, we have been able to fund student scholarships, as well as cover equipment repair costs for teaching and research.
The ongoing struggle with our state budget has made this supplementary funding more important than ever. Since the campaign began in 1998, we have received over $175,000 in contributions from our industry friends and alumni.
On behalf of the faculty, staff, and students, we invite you to become an Associate. Thank you for your continued support and generosity.
-- Dr. James Kennedy, Chair/Director
