Named in honor of long-time EMU biology professor Daniel B. Suter (1920-2006), the endowment was established in 1986 through the generous donations of alumni and friends and currently consists of over $1 million of invested funds. EMU hopes to double the Suter Endowment in order to more adequately support distinguished faculty and to increase scholarship aid to deserving students. For more information, .
