Message From the President

A time of gratitude

The Thanksgiving holiday holds special meaning for many of us. It offers a time for rest and relaxation, and serves as an important reminder to reflect on and appreciate the good things in our lives.

As members of the MDC community, we have much to be grateful for: gifted students; creative and industrious faculty and staff; a supportive learning and working environment; access to the best in academic and cultural programming. The list is seemingly endless.

Every day, I see the way your work influences and inspires our community. I am grateful for all that you do  as students, educators, mentors and volunteers  and for my connection to an institution that makes such a difference in the lives of others.

You have certainly earned my appreciation and I wish you and your loved ones a joyous and peaceful Thanksgiving.

Thank you.

Eduardo
