Campus Campaign Council
The Campus Campaign Council is comprised of faculty and staff appointed by the University President. Members of the Council serve not only as an advisory board for the campus-wide fundraising effort, but also participate on one of three subcommittees created to further advance the effectiveness of volunteer efforts.
Members of the Communications and Marketing Committee develop and implement strategies to improve current communications and identify new communications and marketing opportunities. Committee members also review training materials for changes in presentation/format, content updates, and web applications, as well as draft a “Questions of the Week” newsletter series, and seek out personal testimonies and impact stories from faculty and staff for use on the website, in newsletters and other OSU publications.
The Major Events committee plans and coordinates three key annual events: the Coordinator and Volunteer Orientation, Mid-Point lunch, and Celebration Event.
Team Captains guide Coordinators from 2-3 colleges and/or administrative offices as unique campaigns are planned and implemented. Team Captains serve as liaisons with the Campus Campaign office, direct Coordinators to available resources, assist with event planning, and respond to questions about giving opportunities.
