Welcome INTO Suffolk Students
Now that we all have had a chance to settle into the spring 2018 semester a bit, I want to take this opportunity to ask you to join me in welcoming one of the newest groups of students, our INTO Suffolk students. This spring the INTO Suffolk partnership became very real when the first group […]
#SuffolkSaidYes
Later today, we’ll gather as a community at the annual Suffolk University holiday party to celebrate our achievements this past year. It’s also a time of celebration for another special group, the prospective fall 2018 undergraduates. Today we let 2,237 early action applicants know they’ve been accepted to our University. They represent 45 countries and […]
A Poignant Gift — AIDS Memorial Quilt on Campus
I had a powerful experience today, one that I wanted to share with all of you. I had the opportunity to walk across campus with two of our students to look at – or rather to experience – three panels of the AIDS Memorial Quilt that are on campus this week. I got chills. Of […]
Happy Thanksgiving

You Are Valued

It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year

More precisely, the board and the senior administrative leadership team held a dinner that included each of the newly tenured and/or promoted faculty from across the University. […]
