Investing in the Annual Fund will...  - Recruit and support promising Cardinal scholars whose lives are being changed by the mission and values of an Otterbein education.
- Provide resources and support to professors who are leaders in their fields and in the classroom. You understand Otterbein, and you know that professors here provide a transformative level of personal investment and attention to their students.
- Prioritize where, how and why Otterbein should focus its resources as it develops a Campus Master Plan.
- Most importantly, your support of the Annual Fund will help lead Otterbein into the future while protecting the traditions and commitments this University holds most dear.

The Annual Fund year begins July 1 and ends June 30. |  |  | | We thought you would be proud to know . . . | | Otterbein first-year students' responses in the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE) placed Otterbein in the top 10% of schools in the country for its "Level of Academic Challenge" and for its "Supportive Campus" environment."
A survey of the Class of 2011 graduates found that 96% of respondents were either employed, enrolled in graduate school or performing full-time service within one year of their graduation. Otterbein is consistently ranked in the top 10% of Master’s Midwest Universities in "America's Best Colleges" by U.S. News & World Report. Otterbein faculty and staff are recognized nationally and internationally for their expertise. For example, Lou Rose is the new editor of "American Imago," the journal originally known as "Imago" as founded by Sigmund Freud; Pete Sanderson’s computer science education software is used to teach students across the world; and Kate Lehman was one of only 10 leaders in the country to receive the Outstanding First-Year Student Advocate Award. | |
