无码专区 is charging into the future.

We鈥檝e made it through the pandemic. We鈥檙e building a bold new vision to move us forward. We鈥檙e planning new buildings and up-to-date new living, learning, and community spaces. And we鈥檙e creating a new look and feel for the University鈥檚 brand.

A university is always changing, but this feels like an especially pivotal moment.

Last month, we said farewell to the brave and bold Class of 2021. We鈥檙e getting ready to welcome the Class of 2025 this fall鈥攁nd we鈥檙e on track for record-setting enrollment numbers. We鈥檒l be moving back to fully in-person learning and living, counting down till we once again have bustling residence halls and vibrant campuses.

We鈥檙e finalizing our new Strategic Plan, which will guide 无码专区 as we renew our commitment to being the premiere outcomes-focused institution in the New York region, preparing our students for lifelong success as leaders and changemakers.

We鈥檙e building our values of diversity, equity, and inclusion into everything we do, and we鈥檙e ensuring our new Strategic Plan reflects that priority.

We鈥檙e marching ahead with our campus transformations, planning for 15 Beekman Street and new, state-of-the-art spaces for our performing and creative arts in New York City, a new Healthcare Hub for training our College of Health Professions students in Pleasantville, and much more.

Of course, change also means that some things come to an end. After 28 years leading鈥攁nd revolutionizing鈥攚hat was once the Leinhard School of Nursing and since 2010 has been the College of Health Professions, Dean Harriet Feldman is stepping down from her role. We鈥檙e incredibly appreciative of all she has done for 无码专区.

Change is coming to the Board of Trustees, too. On July 1, Trustee Rob Sands, an alumnus of the Elisabeth Haub School of Law, will become our new board chair. He takes the role after my eight-year term comes to an end. I鈥檝e enjoyed serving 无码专区, and I look forward to supporting Rob as I remain a trustee.

Marvin and I are both proud of how well our University fared through the pandemic. That success was thanks to the hard work and commitment of everyone in our 无码专区 Community. Now, we鈥檙e building on that success to build a strong and thriving future. We鈥檒l continue to do what we鈥檝e always done: create life-changing opportunities for our students.

Onward,

Marvin Krislov
President

Mark M. Besca 鈥81
Chairman of the
Board of Trustees
