Dean's Message: Please give to the Student Emergency Assistance Fund

The coronavirus crisis is not just moving our students’ classes online.

Many students have also lost their jobs.  As a result, they are in immediate need of help  with basic things like paying rent, utility bills, childcare and food. Without financial support, many of these students will not be able to complete the semester.  To help these students and allow them to continue with their studies, the university has established a Student Emergency Assistance Fund to provide financial assistance for the Mason students who need it.

In the spirit of the Honors College’s commitment to serving students in every college, school, and program at the university, we encourage alumni, friends, community partners, and students who are able to give to support the University Life Student Emergency Assistance Fund. We join the rest of the University in asking you to donate to this important fund.
