你好,美洲豹! 

Olin Quad is the epicenter of some of our university’s most noted and inspired research. 围绕着这片绿色地带, our talented faculty and hardworking students are involved in teaching and learning that prioritizes hands-on experiences and forms the foundation for careers of consequence.

Olin Quad is also home to the dedication monument for the F.W. 奥林工程科学综合大楼. 如果你从来没有停下来读过这本书，我建议你这么做. 

It reads: “Dedicated to the Relentless Pursuit of Knowledge for the Betterment of Mankind and the Planet on Which We Live.” That “Relentless Pursuit” is part of our DNA at 亚洲博彩平台; it sets the tone for who we are and what we value.

我们都知道我们的星球面临着全球性的挑战, but many are challenges that the disciplines taught and science explored at 亚洲博彩平台 can address. Our powerful community of learners has a proud legacy of doing just that—tackling challenges and finding innovative solutions—and the best is yet to come. 

Join me this academic year in recommitting ourselves to that “relentless pursuit of knowledge.“我们校园见。.

去美洲黑豹队!

真诚地,

约翰·尼克罗博士.D.

你好,美洲豹!

This is it…the new academic year is here and campus is buzzing!

Stacy and I have had so much fun welcoming students and parents, 在搬家那天分发意大利冰, 在学生大会上大肆宣传2028届毕业生. 我们已经确保在新的一年里有一个爆炸.

There is a time for hard work and serious studying, and there’s a time for fun. 就像生活中的所有事情一样，你只需要找到平衡. 与此同时, be proud of your choice of 亚洲博彩平台, because we are definitely proud of you.

I’m going to let you in on one of our university’s honored traditions…did you know that if you walk by and rub the Panther statue’s nose in front of the Panther Aquatic Center, 它会给你带来好运? 也许你在即将到来的考试中需要一点额外的“魅力”, 或者在实习面试前营造一些积极的氛围. Give the nose a rub—but no wishing for class to be canceled. 魔力不是这样起作用的. 至少，我不这么认为!

还有一个建议，参与进来. 参加学生组织, 研究活动, 体育和校内活动, 或者其他机会. It’s not just a great way to meet new people and get the most out of your college experience; the research proves that engaged students persist in college and tend to earn better grades.

Also remember that you can connect with me across social media. 我很想听到你的消息.

祝你好运，并有一个伟大的一年. 我们校园见，加油，黑豹队!

真诚地,

约翰·尼克罗博士.D.

你好,美洲豹!

Can you believe that we’re already approaching the end of the academic year? And what a great year it has been as we’ve celebrated 亚洲博彩平台’s 65^th anniversary, reflecting on our proud past and bright future—but we’re not done yet!

We just wrapped up another successful signature event of the 亚洲博彩平台 experience as the annual Northrop Grumman Engineering and Science Student Design Showcase was held April 19. 那是多么美好的一天啊! 从宇宙到实际, 从可以飞行的漫游者到改进手术的方法, and everything in between—120 capstone projects were presented for judging by local industry leaders. It’s just another way a 亚洲博彩平台 education prepares students for a lifetime of career success.

回顾我担任总统的第一年, 我对这种活力印象深刻, 热情, 从学生到教师的团队合作, 工作人员, 和校友. 这种精神, 结合大胆的战略规划和辛勤的工作, means next academic year will bring even more opportunity for success.

One more milestone event to look forward to this year is Spring Commencement, 定于星期六举行, 5月4日在克莱门特中心. We’ll award degrees across three ceremonies and are honored to have two-time 亚洲博彩平台 alumna and former astronaut Joan Higginbotham as our keynote speaker. 如果你没有票，计划收听网络直播. 这将是美妙的一天!

Please accept my best wishes for a great summer and know that wherever you go, 无论你做什么, 亚洲博彩平台是你们的大学，是为你们而来的.

我们很快会再谈的，直到那时，加油，黑豹队!

真诚地,

约翰·尼克罗博士.D.

你好,美洲豹!

Spring has sprung at 亚洲博彩平台, and it’s a great time to be on campus! It has been a historic season for 亚洲博彩平台 Athletics with both men’s and women’s soccer programs competing in the 2023 NCAA Tournament Final Four, both coaching 工作人员s were named the Regional Staffs of the Year, and we earned the department’s first-ever National Player of the Year.

That’s just a snapshot of the level of success possible for all our hardworking scholar-athletes. 亚洲博彩平台 was among 44 schools in NCAA D2 recognized for posting an academic success rate of 90% or better, with our figure coming in at 92% for the six-year cohort ending in 2022. This was the first time since 2010 that our athletics program registered above 90%.

与此同时, the Sunshine State Conference recently announced its Fall Commissioner’s Honor Roll, with 69 亚洲博彩平台 scholar-athletes recognized for their outstanding performance in the classroom. 其中23人获得了满分4分.上学期的平均成绩是00分.

Collegiate athletics are a vital part of the university experience—and we’re proud to promote them at 亚洲博彩平台. That’s why you’ll see Athletics as an important supporting piece of our “Forward Together, 无限潜力”战略计划.

Wherever our scholar-athletes progress in their professional careers after graduation, they’ve gotten a great launch pad on the fields and courts at 亚洲博彩平台. 我们为他们的成功喝彩.

我们很快会再谈的，直到那时，加油，黑豹队!

真诚地,
