As we move through the heart of the fall semester, I take this moment to recognize the incredible dedication, hard work, and enthusiasm that each of you—students, faculty, and staff—bring to our campus each day. As we move deeper into the calendar, we’re now in full stride, pushing forward on our goals and projects, determined to finish this semester strong.
This month, as we look toward Thanksgiving, let’s remember to celebrate our successes and challenges we have learned to overcome. Whether it's achieving a personal milestone, reaching a new level of learning, or supporting our community, this is a time to reflect on the many ways we’ve grown.
Thanksgiving also provides a moment to recharge, connect with family and friends, and appreciate the support of our Pace family. I encourage all of you to take this well-deserved break to rest and prepare for the final stretch of the semester.
Let’s continue to work together, fueled by our shared spirit of determination and community, to make this semester our best one yet. I look forward to seeing all that you will accomplish in these last weeks and to celebrating the end of another successful semester at Pace University.
Warm regards,
Marvin Krislov
President, Pace University
