UW-Stevens Point is widely regarded as the nation’s largest and premier undergraduate natural resources program. Each year, the College of Natural Resources sends out to the world over 300 graduates – more than any other educational institution of its kind – who are trained in proven methods for sustainably managing our planet’s precious natural resources. Partners and friends are vital to helping the College build thriving communities around the world. Gifts provide the margin of excellence necessary to bolster diminishing operational resources provided by the state (now down to 13% of the University budget), student tuition and project grants.
