Scott Clyde

“I am fortunate that my professional career has been spent doing work that closely aligns with my values. Working to increase college access and promote educational opportunity for all Idaho citizens, regardless of their individual circumstances, has been a lifelong passion of mine. Giving to the university allows me to direct my resources in a way that specifically supports this work and my values. Additionally, workplace giving affords me the opportunity to see the impact of my charitable contributions first hand. This is not a benefit that other charitable giving opportunities can offer me.”

— Scott Clyde, director of UI TRIO programs and COE representative on the UI Faculty and Staff Campaign Council. Scott and his cousins honored their grandmother’s contributions to the region’s early schooling efforts through support of the Education Building Renovation to create the Lola Clyde Classroom.
