Founded by visionaries within our own community, the University of Rochester was built on a belief that education can be a force for good—a place where big questions can lead to bold impact.
Today, we stand at another defining moment in our history. Once again we’re calling on our community to help us realize a better world—one fueled by curiosity, creativity, and shared humanity.
