Ovid Butler Society Member Benefits
Butler University greatly appreciates the generosity of its
annual supporters. The best reward you can receive for your
contribution, of course, is the satisfaction of knowing that you
have made a difference in the lives of others. Nevertheless, Butler
enjoys publicly thanking its donors and recognizing them for their
philanthropic efforts. Listed below are Butler's university-wide
annual recognition societies. In addition, different areas such as
the Bulldog Club, may have their own recognition societies and
