"Sacramento State’s College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics received $2.85 million to support the development of students in the greater Sacramento area. The money will go toward making improvements for Sac State students in the department.
The college received $350,000 in federal funds and $2.5 million as a gift from the estate of the late philanthropist David Steinberg. Steinberg’s gift was given to the college’s Voula Steinberg Memorial Mathematics Programs Fund, an organization created in memory of Steinberg’s late wife.
Both funds support the college’s Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics initiative, which recruits a diverse group of students and enhances their capacity for knowledge."
