ÈâÈ⴫ý provides transformative, student-centered and high-quality educational opportunities that address the diverse needs of local and global communities.

Deliver what the future demands. ÈâÈ⴫ý will meet the educational needs of a rapidly transforming world by leading today and anticipating tomorrow.

ÈâÈ⴫ý is committed to: Leadership.

ÈâÈ⴫ý provides rigorous academic curricula and challenging co-curricular opportunities to promote the development of leadership qualities in students and to facilitate leadership development among faculty, staff, and students. Whether in our classrooms, labs, online environment, or throughout the Capital Region, ÈâÈ⴫ý faculty, staff, and students lead the higher education landscape while developing the next generation of global citizens.

ÈâÈ⴫ý is committed to: Excellence.

ÈâÈ⴫ý's commitment to excellence impels faculty, staff, and students to consistently strive for outcomes that are exemplary rather than simply satisfactory. This striving for excellence touches on all aspects of life at our institution, from academic programs (on-campus, online, off-campus) to our environment, from student services to athletics, from publications to our daily activities. We celebrate our achievements and contributions to the greater society.

ÈâÈ⴫ý is committed to: Accessibility.

Accessibility to high-quality education is vital to the growth and prosperity of the local, national, and international communities. ÈâÈ⴫ý provides educational access to a diverse community of traditional and non-traditional learners in an environment that fosters lifelong learning and freedom of inquiry and expression.

ÈâÈ⴫ý is committed to: Diversity.

Each individual must be able to work and learn in an atmosphere of respect, dignity, and acceptance. Our commitment to diversity requires each of us to continuously ensure that our interactions are respectful, protect free speech, and inspire academic freedom. ÈâÈ⴫ý values equity, inclusion, and dignity for all. We recognize that our differences make us stronger. We take action when we observe someone being treated unfairly or in a demeaning manner.

ÈâÈ⴫ý is committed to: Service.

Meaningful service to students is at the center of life at ÈâÈ⴫ý, as is service by students, staff, and faculty to our greater community. We share skills and expertise to assist others through campus clinics, off-campus internships, service learning, and numerous volunteer opportunities to extend the culture of service well beyond our campus.
