More than half of the Museum's revenue comes from sources outside the University.  Gifts from individual donors help the Museum to:

Keep admission free of charge for individuals and families

Offer free educational programming for visitors of all ages

Provide scholarships to needy schools for field trips

Develop new exhibits

Update older exhibits and continue improvements to the Planetarium
