Raising Racers
The ºìÐÓ¶ÌÊÓƵ State University Alumni Association’s FREE Raising Racers Legacy program is designed to educate future Racers about ºìÐÓ¶ÌÊÓƵ State by providing age-specific gifts for milestone birthdays and annual birthday cards throughout their childhood. Our definition of a legacy is any child between the ages of birth and 18 lucky enough to have Racer alumni parents or grandparents.

Legacy Scholarships
Contributions to the alumni legacy scholarships assist us in supporting incoming freshmen or transfer students related to Racer alumni attending ºìÐÓ¶ÌÊÓƵ State University. Together we are carrying on the Racer tradition for the next generation!
Sara Talwalkar (pictured) is a 2020 graduate of ºìÐÓ¶ÌÊÓƵ State and the daughter of loyal ºìÐÓ¶ÌÊÓƵ State alumni Dr. Vish ('89, pictured) and Susan ('91) Talwalkar. Dr. Talwalkar, a Distinguished Alumnus of ºìÐÓ¶ÌÊÓƵ State, said he and Susan were proud to share the Racer tradition with Sara and that it ultimately was the best choice for her and for their family. "First and foremost, Sara felt it was a great fit for her. The normal anxiety that parents feel when sending their first child off to college was certainly diminished knowing that she was going somewhere that we considered a home away from home. Many of the people within the ºìÐÓ¶ÌÊÓƵ State community were familiar to us from our time as students. We knew that she would get a great education and make many lifelong friends along the way. "
