University of Denver Spring 2024

50 Reasons to Love DU

#

At the University of Denver, we took a good, long look at the future of higher education and thought: We can do better. So, we’re challenging conventional thinking. We’re doing higher education our way. Holistically. We’re developing the whole student, focusing on intellectual growth, life purpose, character and well-being. We’re redefining the promise of higher education. Preparing a new kind of leader and world citizen for what’s ahead. Solving problems and creating new knowledge that directly improves the human condition. Because young people coming up deserve a better future. And what DU can do will help them to solve the toughest challenges they face.

True to our Rocky Mountain West can-do spirit, we’re rolling up our sleeves to do the hard work of making a difference now. With open hearts and minds, we’re actively solving complex societal problems through visionary leadership, research, scholarship and strong partnerships. We are grateful for your interest and support as we set the new standard for higher education in the 21st century. This campaign is the turning point that establishes our approach as the model to match. It makes transformation possible—and raises everyone’s hopes for the future. We’re The Denver Difference. Let’s show the world what DU can do.
