Adopt a Sycamore Squirrel $10,000 Challenge
50 donors to the Theater Department will unlock a $10,000 gift from Billy Joe and Nerissa Jay to the Summer Theater. Are you nuts about ISU? Do you have fond memories of feeding campus squirrels fries from George's? What about hearing those little critters run across the roof of your classroom? This year for Give to Blue Day, you can bring a part of your Sycamore experience home by symbolically adopting a Sycamore Squirrel! For only $25, you will symbolically adopt a squirrel, and in exchange, you will receive a Certificate of Adoption and an authentic photo of a squirrel on the Indiana State University campus! Adoption donations go to support the Department of Theater who spends many hours listening to the squirrels run across the roof of the New Theater, feeding the squirrels during rehearsal breaks, and, on occasion, even dresses as squirrels for productions.
