Our Vision for Upstate, ny

Why Graduate Students and Faculty?

Graduate students and faculty are the most influential people on campus. No one on campus has a greater influence in the lives of students on campus. Graduate students and faculty are the men and women who discover and give voice to the ideas that will change our world. They shape the structures the university and its professions. 30-40 years from now, the undergraduate students whom they are forming will be the world-leaders and culture-shapers.

If we want to reach every corner of every campus with gospel and if we want to change the world 30-40 years from now, it is strategically pivotal that we reach graduate students and faculty today.
