DONOR FEATURE, Linda Eldred Student Leadership Center

Amy and Mike Alley created the Linda Eldred Student Leadership Center to honor their ISU mentor, Linda Eldred. The Center is housed in the Hulman Memorial Student Union within the Office of Campus Life and will support programs for students on leadership development, inclusion, personal and professional growth, and community service. The couple’s gift inspired donations for the 2021 Give to Blue Day.

“Linda really brought so many of us together in so many ways. We really got to spread our wings and represent Indiana State in a positive way because of what she taught us. This is something we’ve wanted to do to honor Linda for a very long time. It is something that felt right to us and felt she would be honored and pleased with it. Her name will be carried on for generations among student leaders at Indiana State.” — Amy Alley, ’78
