Food for thought

Think Visionary

Visionary leaders look beyond the present to meet challenges and seize opportunities.

Binghamton University's current stature is the result of the visionary leadership of many, from University administrators and state legislators to dedicated faculty, staff, alumni and community partners.

As a premier public university, our mission is to enrich lives through discovery, education and engagement. In keeping with that mission, our strategic planning is driving us to yet higher levels of excellence, achievement and contribution to our state.

The result of this visionary "public" approach is clear.

We are consistently recognized by publications such as U.S. News & World Report and Kiplinger's Personal Finance as one of the nation's best colleges. And we provide that top-notch education at an affordable price.

Our faculty include a Pulitzer Prize-winning author and groundbreaking researchers working in fields ranging from information security to battery-powered cars.

We have been honored seven times over for preparing students for life in the global community. Still, of our 90,000-plus alumni, more than half choose to live, work and raise their families in New York state.

As we prepare to meet the future as successfully as we have negotiated the past six decades, we ask that you join with us.

Help us to define and achieve our vision by becoming a University advocate today.
