Building Relationships and the University's Future
Heidelberg's success is linked directly to the unwavering support and commitment of those alumni, parents and friends who give to the University. Your support enables Heidelberg to fulfill its mission, and helps us cover the costs of essentials such as faculty salaries, student activities, scholarships and the new initiatives that keep the University moving forward.
There are many ways to give and get involved, from The Fellows Organization to the "H" Association for former college athletes, and planned giving. And of course, you can contribute to the Heidelberg Fund, which directs unrestricted support to the student scholarships.
University Relations
The mission of the Office of University Relations is to publicize and promote Heidelberg University to its internal audiences (students, staff, faculty, trustees and alumni) and external audiences (the community at-large, at the local, regional, state and national levels).
The office's activities—media relations and communication —are to give an honest portrayal of the university in order to generate support for the university, interest among prospective students and a foundation upon which the university's development program may build.
The office played a significant role implementing the transition from Heidelberg College to Heidelberg University. The Office of University Relations and the Office of Marketing and Communication Services work closely together to serve all communication, advertising and publication needs.
