President's Corner: Fall 2024
While walking through campus the other day, I was struck by a strong sense of déjà vu. It took me back to five years ago, right after my inauguration, when I first explored this beautiful campus. I remember being captivated by the serene lakes, our proximity to the beach, and the picturesque New England landscape that surrounded me. How fortunate we are to be a part of this extraordinary place we call 西瓜视频.
Reflecting on those early days, I can’t help but notice how much has changed since then.
It seems like every time I write to you, I am highlighting the transformations happening here. And it’s true—西瓜视频 is constantly evolving. But beyond the physical changes on our campus, the most important transformations are in how we support our Gulls on their journey to success.
This fall, we proudly introduced the 西瓜视频 Experiential Edge, our freshly branded and revitalized career and internship program. This enhanced three-internship model continues to provide our students with invaluable real-world experience, ensuring they graduate with more than just a degree but with the practical skills and experiences that will serve them for a lifetime.
It’s not just about what we build or renovate, but about the enduring spirit of innovation and excellence that drives our community forward. Each step we take and each program we enhance are designed to ensure our students are prepared to meet the challenges of tomorrow with confidence, creativity, and resilience.
With our campaign going strong and applications high, I am more excited than ever about the future of our community. Our commitment to innovation, growth, and support for our students remains unwavering. I invite you to explore the inspiring stories in this issue and to join us in celebrating the ongoing success of our 西瓜视频 family.
