Dear Friend,
The beauty of a college campus is its ability to bring together people of all backgrounds, perspectives and ages to work toward a shared goal of changing lives through education. Here at Adelphi, our increased focus on supporting adult learners is especially impactful. This month, I’m proud to share the many ways we are helping adults return to college to finish their degrees or advance their careers.
Adelphi’s campus is also a hub for discovery and extraordinary experiences. One professor is reinventing our Innovation Center to become one of the most popular—and innovative—spots on campus. A graduate student is benefiting from a life-changing summer internship at NASA. A rising theater star performs in Adelphi’s Larson Legacy Concert Series. And LeeAnn Black ’83 shares why our personalized education inspired her thriving career and desire to support the next generation of students.
As Women’s History Month gets underway, I’m eagerly looking forward to our annual Women’s Leadership Conference on March 29, featuring ABC News anchor Juju Chang, bestselling author Kindra Hall, and many more inspiring women. I hope you will join us for what promises to be a powerful day of growth and connections.
And tonight, join me in rooting for our top-seeded men’s basketball team in the Northeast-10 Conference tournament semifinals as they compete for our first basketball championship title since the 2010–2011 season.
All the best, |
