Dear friends,
It is my pleasure to welcome you to the University of Richmond. I encourage you to learn more about this exciting university by exploring our Web site and visiting our beautiful campus.
As an environment for learning, it is hard to imagine a more inspiring and nurturing setting. Richmond is a place where students are given the opportunities, resources, and support they need to excel both intellectually and personally. Each of our schools offers challenging academic programs that focus on developing close student-faculty relationships and producing successful graduates.
Our School of Arts & Sciences anchors Richmond as a nationally ranked liberal arts university. A top-20 business school, the nation’s first school of leadership studies, a highly respected law school, and the community-focused School of Continuing Studies build on that strong liberal arts foundation and make this university something truly unique.
The University of Richmond is a place that makes a difference—in the lives of our students, in the community we serve, and in the world around us. I hope you will join us on that journey.
I also would like to invite Richmond alumni, parents, and friends to attend one of the welcome receptions taking place around the country. At these events, I will have the opportunity to greet you in person and provide an update on the exciting progress taking place on campus.
Sincerely,
Edward L. Ayers
President
