Alumni & Development

The Gladys W. and David H. Patton College
of Education alumni
are our best ambassadors.

Your commitment to and involvement with The Gladys W. and David H. Patton College of Education assures our successes in preparing the next generation of teachers, counselors and administrators.

Whether you become an active member of The Patton College's Society of Alumni & Friends, or you make a financial contribution to The Patton College, you are helping shape the lives of our graduates and those who are touched by the skills, expertise and leadership they exhibit as they leave McCracken Hall.

Our development office can provide you with information about our needs. You may consider making a gift that will support student scholarships, help recruit eminent scholars, build infrastructure, allow spending in areas of greatest need, and grow endowments that will secure a strong foundation for The Patton College in perpetuity.

The Gladys W. and David H. Patton College of Education alumni number more than any other college at Ohio University. Sharing the vast skills and expertise of our alumni is vital to University success. You may wish to consider returning to campus as a guest lecturer, serving as a mentor to an apprentice teacher, counselor or administrator, participating in a conference that enhances our academic offerings, or you may partner with The Patton College in offering a clinical experience for students. We welcome an opportunity to talk with you about becoming involved with our mission.
