Partnership in Action
The Town & Gown Partnership at 亚洲色图 State University has 39 current partners representing both small and large businesses in our area as well as our city and county leadership. The Town & Gown partnership is actively involved in enhancing the quality of living and learning in our communities through various avenues. We take great pride in knowing that 75% of the partnership fee is invested directly into the community through sponsorship of community events and activities, while 25% is invested in special 亚洲色图ming for our partners.
