When Bradley University opened its doors 125 years ago, it was to fulfill the long-held dream of its founder, Lydia Moss Bradley Not only did she love Peoria and give back to it generously, her bold vision was to build a school that would meet the needs and interests of its young people so they could live useful and productive lives Bradley University and Peoria share much in common: a diverse population, world-class research facilities, outstanding fine arts and entertainment, and a great sense of community. We are grateful for the friends and partners we have made who continue to help us build on Lydia’s legacy — for the next 125 years and beyond — Stephen Standifird, President Bradley University
