Spring 2026 |

Welcome to our spring newsletter, a season of renewal, energy and new possibilities. Fittingly, this edition celebrates growth in all its forms, both metaphorical and literal.
Our Teacher Pipeline program captures this spirit in action. This innovative and distinctive initiative engages high school students as future educators, empowering them to earn college credits while gaining meaningful, hands-on experience they can bring back to their own communities. We also spotlight “Keanu Leaves,” a vibrant, grant-funded initiative in our dietetics program, where students quite literally cultivate growth through hands-on work in our Tower Garden.
That spirit of growth extends across our academic landscape as well. We are excited to expand our offerings with dynamic new programs at our Garden City campus and at our new Manhattan Center, opening doors to fresh opportunities for our students. You’ll find more about these exciting developments below.
What truly brings these stories together are the transformative experiences that define our students’ journeys. From global learning programs, including our signature annual trip to Italy and other opportunities highlighted in Only Adelphi Provides This Experience, to the inspiring mentorship of our outstanding faculty, whose scholarship continually pushes the boundaries of knowledge, our students are immersed in an environment designed for growth. Each day, we partner with them to nurture their potential, support their success, and prepare them to thrive in meaningful and impactful futures.
We invite you to explore, enjoy and celebrate this season of growth with us.
Warmly, |

“Only Adelphi provides this experience.”
—Dean Wang |
|
|
At the Ruth S. Ammon College of Education and Health Sciences, learning goes far beyond the classroom. Our annual study abroad trip to Italy gives students the chance to explore historic sites like Pompeii, engage with local culture in Florence and gain the confidence and perspective that come from experiencing the world firsthand.
These transformative opportunities are made possible by supporters like you.
Giving Day is April 22–April 23. Gifts made between now and then will count toward our Giving Day goals and help ensure that experiences like these remain accessible to every CEHS student. |
