"We are an accessible, public institution punching so far above our weight. Our faculty, staff and students are redefining this place every day, and our grads are at the forefront of art and design spaces internationally. The sheer brilliance and range of this community is staggering. I am hugely proud of all of the people who make up this university and the amazing work that they do."
