Support Ooligan Press!

A unique program calls for innovative fundraising. There is no other master's degree program in book publishing that we know of anywhere in the world that has a working publishing company as its laboratory. Ooligan Press is entirely run by the 90 graduate students in the program working under the direction of a faculty of publishing professionals. Real books. Real authors. Real world. And you can help.

The publishing program and Ooligan Press are self-supporting, which means that we must raise the money necessary to publish our books and market them successfully. But we want to do even more. With the help of contributions and eventual grants, we hope to create special funds to sponsor special publishing projects, offer scholarships and assistantships, support travel necessary to the work of the press, and expand course offerings.

Become a FOOP! (Friend of Ooligan Press)

Support the publishing program and Ooligan Press with your tax deductible contribution. It's easy. Make your check payable to the “PSU Foundation,” with “Ooligan Press Acct” in the memo field and mail it to Ooligan Press, Dept of English, POB 751, Portland, OR 97207. Or contribute by credit card on the Foundation website (www.foundation.pdx.edu) or by phone at 503.725.4911.

For information about the press, the program, or FOOP, visit our website at www.publishing.pdx.edu or contact Dennis Stovall at 503.725.9410 or stovall@pdx.edu. Membership in FOOP has its privileges; we'd be happy to tell you about them--or request a brochure and catalog.
