A Message from the Chair
Dear Friends,
While the many challenges of this past year have come with a high degree of uncertainty, at least one thing has held true — the spirit of higher education is alive and well at the University of Nevada, Reno. This spirit drives all of us who make efforts on behalf of the University to make the world a better place.
For more than 135 years, Nevada has been home to talented scholars, artists and others who have been drawn from all over the world to teach, study and create. From the humble beginnings of a land-grant institution, the University of Nevada, Reno continues to receive national and international recognition in higher education.
The University of Nevada, Reno Foundation is grateful to our friends and alumni for providing the means by which our faculty and students investigate, discover, and share their findings with the larger community. Among these pages you will find stories to inspire you, messages to thank you, and information to assist you. We hope that you will explore our site and discover why Nevada is unique among institutions of learning.
Thank you for your generosity which helps to preserve the great tradition of academic inquiry that is such an essential element in the creation of new knowledge.
Best to you,
Sara Lafrance ’73 (English)
Chair, University of Nevada, Reno Foundation
