TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (WTWO/WAWV) Indiana State University s third annual Give to Blue Day Wednesday resulted in more than $1 million for the university a 51% increase over the total funds raised by the event in 2020.
A total of 2,620 donors from 48 U.S. states and five countries demonstrated strong Sycamore spirit by collectively contributing $1,022,945 during the 24-hour fundraising event. The donor count, just shy of the 2,700 goal, still represented 202 donors more than last year s number. The average size of the gifts was $295.
The $1 million mark was reached just after 11 p.m. on Give to Blue Day.
Tressel’s salary is $375,000 while Smith’s is $250,000, according to the university.
“We are happy to have the leaders of our executive team securely in place to continue their great work in service of our students, faculty, staff, alumni, donors and the greater Mahoning and Shenango valley communities,” board Chair Anita Hackstedde said.
Tressel was named YSU’s ninth president in 2014, agreeing to a three-year contract and then one-year extensions through June 2021. The latest extension says that, starting July 1, 2021, Tressel’s contract as president will continue until terminated by either party with 180 days prior written notice.
“We have accomplished much in seven years, but there’s more work to be done,” Tressel said. “We look forward to continue moving the university ahead on various fronts.”
