For the past year, our community has wrestled with the events of last October and the painful and difficult aftermath. In this message, I share thoughts on what I've learned, how we can remain connected and the values that will help GW University move forward. president.gwu.edu/reflecting-pasā¦


This November, we honor the diverse and enduring traditions of Native American communities and cultures past and present. At GW University, we proudly celebrate their achievements and invaluable contributions, which continue to enrich our university and nation.


It was a joy to welcome Jeanelle & Russ Johnson back to the F Street House today! Their GW love story began 19 years ago when they celebrated their wedding in this historic space. These moments remind us that GW University isn't just for learningāit's a place of lifelong connections.


Had a wonderful morning yesterday hosting GW University student leaders for brunch at the F Street House with Sonya, Dean Coleman, and Chief of Staff Mory. Our students' passion for building a stronger GW community is truly inspiring. Thank you for the great conversation and company!


Today, we honor the service and sacrifice of our veterans. GW University is proud to have one of the largest military student populations of any private research university, continuing a legacy that began with the first GI Bill recipient in 1944. To all who have served: Thank you.

A wonderful evening at GW Men's Basketball where I had the chance to congratulate GW University alum @gilcisnerosca on his election to represent CA-31 in Congress. From military vet to Department of Defense to Capitol HillāGil truly exemplifies our amazing alumni community! #OnlyatGW #RaiseHigh



Great to see GW Investment Institute students in action during Rodney Lake's Applied Securities Analysis class today! Their energy and expertise in their buy/sell pitches were remarkable, not to mention the real-world experience they are gaining managing a portion of endowment funds.
