With the spring season here and the semester entering the home stretch, this is a fitting moment to reflect on this year’s milestones. I’m excited to share the 2024–2025 President’s Report: A Year of Extraordinary Achievements, in which we proudly highlight Adelphi’s record-breaking fundraising, championship moments and rising national academic recognition.
That same spirit of accomplishment shines through our alumni and campus community alike, with many opportunities ahead and new reasons to celebrate. The newly released U.S. News & World Report rankings highlight the strength of our graduate health programs, with significant gains in clinical psychology and speech-language pathology, and nursing remaining among the top accredited graduate nursing programs nationwide. This year marks a magical chapter for celebrated author Alice Hoffman ’73, ’02 (Hon.), who hosts the third annual Writers & Readers Festival at Adelphi this month before her most famous work reaches Broadway and movie theaters this fall. Our most ambitious Scholarship and Creative Works Conference to date will spotlight record student participation and a Nobel laureate keynote. Adding to this momentum, our community will also come together for Giving Day to strengthen our mission.
From academic excellence and creative achievement to community impact and philanthropy, Adelphi lives its mission of delivering on opportunity for its students. I invite you to join us at our signature events this month and be a part of our community.
Onwards and upwards,
Chris Storm, PhD
