Office of Institutional Advancement

Exterior Photograph of the Ruth Couch Center on the ASU-Beebe campus.The Institutional Advancement Office, which oversees the development, marketing, and alumni relations functions for ASU-Beebe and its campuses, is located in the Ruth Couch Center on the corner of Palm and Iowas. The building was constructed in the 1930's during the Depression and has served the campus as the library, the student center, and the bookstore. The building was named in 2006 for Dr. Ruth Couch, retired faculty/administrator and generous supporter of the institution.

The mission of the Institutional Advancement Office is to engage the community, create ongoing support for the campuses and students, and keep our constituents informed of the institution's impact on its communities. Our office accomplishes these goals through friend and fund raising; timely and accurate media and pubic affairs; and coordination of campus-wide marketing efforts.
