About

History in the Making

The PSU History Department General Fund keeps the department moving. Your gift supports the full arc of a student's journey from the classroom into the world.

Your gift supports the work that happens beyond the classroom: faculty and student research, conference participation, and travel that puts our scholars in conversation with their fields. It covers the professional memberships, resources, and opportunities that keep the department vibrant and connected.

History students are researchers, writers, public historians, and community partners in training — and your support gives them the tools, connections, and experiences they need to get there.

There's no single thing your dollars do — there are dozens! And every one of them matters.
Because History students and faculty aren't just studying the world — they're changing it.
