Giving to the Cinema Studies Department

Your support of Cinema Studies at the University of Oregon has allowed the department to experience outstanding growth since launching with just 58 students in 2010. Today, the department serves more than 300 majors, providing our students with the richness of a liberal arts education that intertwines cinema history and theory with practical state–of–the–art production skills—your donations of time and resources helped make this possible.
