Dear colleagues,

It is my pleasure to share some exciting news with you. On Friday, the Trustees approved a resolution for our campaign, slated to last five years. This news was greeted with cheers at a campaign preview at the Trustees dinner at the Jerome L. Greene Science Center on Friday evening, where alumni, faculty, and donors spoke of their commitment to ideas and impact, to new ways of thinking and doing in addressing the world’s problems. We look forward to a public launch in the next calendar year.

We will talk more about the campaign, and the important role each of us will play in making it a success, in the days and weeks to come. On behalf of Columbia’s faculty, students, alumni, patients, and all who will benefit from this campaign and Columbia’s heightened impact in the world, I thank each of you for all you do. I so look forward to our next chapter and to all we will achieve together!

Best,
Amelia
