Invest in student scholarship, discovery, and opportunity through
The Calamai Family Endowed Scholarship. If we raise $4,400 by June 15, we can award the scholarship for the 2026-27 academic year.

As a first-generation college graduate and longtime educator, Professor Anthony Calamai knows that education is not simply about earning a degree — it is about opening doors. Help our students discover what becomes possible when curiosity meets opportunity. Make a gift today.
