Support Education and the Student-Athlete

In honor of Coach Knight and his lifelong belief in the power of education, discipline, and the student-athlete experience, we invite you to consider a contribution to Marian University. Your support helps provide transformative educational opportunities, strengthens athletic programs, and empowers the next generation of leaders both on and off the court.

In 2012, Coach Bob Knight was honored at Marian University’s annual athletics award ceremony, the Clayton Family Circle of Honor. In recognition of his achievements, the Coach Bob Knight Endowed Scholarship was created to support students pursuing careers in teaching and/or coaching — a mission deeply connected to Coach’s passion for developing future educators and leaders.

Make an impact that reflects what mattered most to Coach — invest in education and the student-athlete today.
