Making hope happen

About the donor, Kaye Herth

Kaye Herth, Minnesota State University, Mankato Dean Emerita, established the Hope Research Fellowship through a donation to the College. Her contribution now creates fellowships to full time tenured or tenure-track faculty in the College of Allied Health and Nursing to expand the understanding of hope across individuals, families, communities or cultures. Having done extensive research on hope and how it affects humans herself, Dr. Herth is committed to continuing research on hope and giving hope. Dr. Herth served as Dean of the College of Allied Health and Nursing from 1998-2010.
