Every semester brings new opportunities to move forward.
At Pace, we don’t wait to get started. Already this fall, I’m seeing that drive in action: in our classrooms, labs, student initiatives, and community programs.
We roll up our sleeves. We get to work. And we create opportunities through research, creative exploration, civic engagement, and a deep commitment to our students and one another.
This is also a good time to reconnect. For Staff and Faculty, I hope you'll join us at one of the upcoming Community Conversations, where we’ll gather in person to reflect, listen, and keep moving forward together. We will also welcome alumni, families, and friends back to our campuses for Homecoming, a moment to celebrate our shared pride in Pace and the strength of our community.
Our commitment to civic engagement is also stronger than ever. With Pace Votes 2025, we’re making sure every member of our community has the tools and support they need to participate—from registering to vote, to casting your ballot on campus, to joining voter engagement events.
I am also proud to share that 34 Pace students have been named UN Millennium Fellows, the largest number in our history. These exceptional students are addressing global challenges through local action and embodying the Pace mission to make a difference.
Looking ahead, planning is already underway for Commencement 2025. Nominations are now open for Commencement speakers and for the Opportunitas in Action Award. These honors reflect the values of our University and celebrate those who inspire and elevate our community. I encourage you to consider leaders, changemakers, and community builders whose voices will guide and motivate the Class of 2026, and to submit your nominations.
Thank you, as always, for being part of this remarkable community. I look forward to seeing what we do next.
Warmly,
Marvin Krislov
President
Your Commencement isn’t just about walking the stage—it’s about celebrating the people and values that got you here. That’s why we want the Class of 2026 to help choose our Commencement speaker and the recipient of the Opportunitas in Action Award. Think of someone whose story will light up the room, inspire your classmates, and leave a lasting mark. Ready? Nominate now.
More Pace students than ever—34 across both campuses—have been named UN Millennium Fellows, tackling the world’s biggest challenges through local action and global collaboration. From clean water to climate change, these Go-Getters are making their mark.
Reconnect with your student and experience the best of Pace this October—from campus events and athletics to Broadway shows and local adventures in Westchester and New York City.
