Greetings from the President

Over the next year or so, we hope to bring your attention to the new bells and whistles that this new medium affords its readership. As with the latest offerings from any dealership worth its salt, the highlighted feature of this new format is convenience, convenience, and convenience! “Going digital” allows timely content that you can enjoy on your computer, on your tablet, or even on your phone.

As we explore the distinct advantages of this new communications tool, the editorial staff will continually add new features and ways to present the content that will bring Alumnus to life.

We would also like to hear your ideas about what you would like to see and hear in our newsletter. It's an exciting change that we have made with this electronic format, and we want the entire University community to play a part in its success.

As we celebrate 110 years of academic excellence, we must remind ourselves of the responsibilities that institutions of such distinction require. We have a responsibility to change, we have a responsibility to discover, and we have a responsibility to understand.

With each passing year, with each graduation and with each ceremony, these new beginnings help to define and catalyze our institution's

ever-changing reflection. We must however, continue the challenge to manage within the confines of a steadfast commitment to a consistent and understood mission. Each new class of students comprehends the voice of the mission in their own way. Each new class is influenced by tenured thought and process, but at the same time guided into the future through the academic interactions of give and take. In that same give and take, the academy as a whole discovers and refines its own mission and evolves into what each of its graduates remembers.

In that same give and take, the academy as a whole discovers and refines its own mission and evolves into what each of its graduates remembers.

With such a long history, NUHS must avoid the pitfalls of maintaining a status quo for the sake of tradition. We must be open to what is written on the wall but remain mindful to the voices of the past. Our hope is with the tethering to excellence, usefulness and pertinence. From these connections, National will continue to deliver opportunity.

As such, we take advantage of celebrations such as our 110 years of existence. But where to start? In these pages we have chosen to start with what really defines a University — people. Staff, faculty and students are a great way to highlight the product of our endurance. Please enjoy this issue of the Alumnus and the stories of some of our most recent successes. To continue your success and to provide another opportunity to celebrate, please pay special attention to the information of our upcoming homecoming. I look forward to seeing you there.

Congratulations on being part of our 110 years of excellence.

Esse Quam Videri
