"We sincerely hope that others will join us in supporting RCPD and establishing MSU as a university that extends excellence
to human needs as well as education."
-Hal and Phyllis Wochholz
Harold and Phyllis Wochholz established the Wochholz Endowment for the Resource Center for Persons with Disabilities to provide a source of funding to market MSU as a university with an exceptional and sustained record of success in meeting the needs of persons with disabilities.
Harold, a 1958 graduate of the College of Engineering, and RCPD 2007 Outstanding Alumnus, identifies MSU's accessible facilities as instrumental to the attainment of his engineering degrees and to his success as an engineer and leader within a major aerospace corporation. Employing a passion to involve today's students with disabilities in a similarly life changing experience, Harold and Phyllis are defining an exciting future with increased awareness and opportunity, in turn, enhancing the MSU advantage for students with disabilities.
Together with the College of Engineering, the RCPD will develop a continuous promotional program that will encourage future students with a disability to consider MSU as their choice for higher education.
Harold and Phyllis envision this fund remaining flexible enough that it does not lock MSU into today’s concepts of what accessible is, but rather takes into consideration the evolving unique needs of persons with disabilities.
