The Bergami Center, as you know, is a
centerpiece of The Charger Challenge, the
University's first comprehensive capital
campaign that endeavors to raise $100
million leading up to
our centennial in 2020.
The development of this building is a wonderful representation of our ambitious campaign,
and at its core this building will
create new opportunities for our
students and will strengthen the
foundation of the University for its next hundred years.
The University of New Haven has played a critical role in my life
from the day I graduated from the
Executive MBA program to today. My close involvement with the University has been
a life-changing experience. I envision
this building will provide the same
opportunity for the next generation of
students. We are especially eager to see
the opportunity this Center will create
for our students and the impact that it
will have on their education and their
future.
We can't move forward if we keep what we know to ourselves, and we move
forward better when we are surrounded
by people who know things that we do not. When interdisciplinary conversations
happen, such as engineers talking to
business people, amazing things can
happen. And that's what this building is
all about.
Innovation at the University of New Haven is therefore not just a buzzword. It is a concept we embody
through the work of our students and through the work of our talented faculty.
The Bergami Center will take this commitment to an entirely new level.
