Abstract
This research project explores ways in which development staff associated with performing arts
programs at colleges and universities can involve faculty in the fundraising process. I examined
this topic by conducting a case study of the UO School of Music and Dance. Through facilitating
a series of four meetings between the School of Music and Dance Development Director and a
small group of music and dance faculty, I identified opportunities for faculty participation in
certain fundraising activities. I collected data through document analysis, semi-structured
interviews, and participant observation. Based on my findings, I make recommendations
regarding faculty involvement in fundraising at the UO School of Music and Dance and other
performing arts academic units in higher education.
