STILLWATER, OKLA. – Former Oklahoma State University professor Irma Manning dedicated her career to improving the lives of others, and will continue to do so even after her death.  In May 2006, the OSU Foundation received $300,000 from Manning’s estate to support educational opportunities in the College of Human Environmental Sciences (HES).  Through lifetime and estate gifts, Manning generously contributed nearly $500,000 to ensure her mission would continue at OSU.
