University of Texas at Dallas supporters contributed more than $2.2 million to over 80 campus causes during Comets Giving Days on April 6-7. USS topped giving day leaderboards both for academic departments and programs and groups that raised at least 22 gifts on the first day. “Comets Giving Days allowed USS participants to share with the broader campus how their gift to USS and other minority student success programs expand UT Dallas’ diversity efforts,” Edwards said. “We are so grateful to all who donated to Comets Giving Days to help the program serve more minority students. All gifts made during Comets Giving Days contributed to UT Dallas’ ongoing New Dimensions campaign, which aims to raise $750 million for transformative opportunities for students, faculty and programs throughout the University.
