The Dean's Circle, originally called the Dean’s Council, was created in 2012 and has since grown into a devoted group of alumni and friends of the College of Agriculture who support the academic priorities and goals of the College through their annual investment of $1,000 or more to the Dean’s Excellence Fund.
Gifts to the Dean’s Excellence Fund are instrumental in providing the tools necessary to address critical needs as they arise and enhance the college’s tradition of preparing leaders in agriculture. Private funding is crucial for the College to have the resources to recruit and retain the best and brightest students.
Dean’s Circle membership requires an annual donation of $1,000, which can easily be divided into monthly, quarterly, or bi-annual payments upon request.
The Dean’s Circle is a devoted group of alumni and friends of the College of Agriculture that support its mission. Dean’s Circle members provide an unrestricted annual gift of $1,000 to support the priorities of the Dean, student scholarships, and academic needs.
I support the Dean's Circle because I believe in the work and mission of the College of Agriculture and the LSU AgCenter.
Kenneth WestChief Executive Officer, HCA Florida JFK Hospital
I support the Dean's Circle because the LSU College of Agriculture is leading our future Ag leaders. We need to bring back the importance of agriculture in our society and the College of Ag and the LSU AgCenter is the best place to start that.
