FROM THE OFFICE OF THE DEAN
Staying True to
Our Values in
Challenging Times
T
he shi ing political landscape presents new challenges for higher education, but at Pace
University and Dyson College, we remain steadfast in our commitment to what we do best:
providing students with a high-quality education and unwavering suppo , especially in these
unce ain times.
Our faculty and staff continue to lead with integrity, staying focused on our core mission and
values. We are dedicated to fostering an inclusive environment—one that honors and respects
differences, values diverse perspectives, and suppo s every individual for who they are. Diversity is not
just a principle we uphold—it is central to our identity and essential to the work we do.
At Dyson College, we recognize the vital impo ance of the liberal a s in today's world. These
disciplines help us understand who we are, what we value, and how we can contribute to building a
be er, more equitable society. They remind us of our shared humanity and our collective responsibility
to ensure that all people have the oppo unity to succeed.
Even as the world changes around us, our mission does not. We do not shi with the political winds
or falter in our beliefs. Our students can take comfo in this consistency, and our suppo ers can be
confident in our continued dedication to excellence, equity, and inclusion.
Thank you for standing with Dyson College and our students. Together, we will continue to grow as
a community—of students, alumni, faculty, and staff—united by shared values and a shared purpose.
