Dear Blue Hen Family,

After more than a year and a half, we are thrilled to finally have all of our UD students back on campus for the 2021-2022 academic year. 

While there is a great deal of excitement in celebrating the everyday UD experiences we've all missed — The Green bustling with students, classrooms alive with healthy debate and residence halls full of life — there are still some uncertainties and much to do to ensure the success of our students. The challenges of the past year truly unveiled inequities that can be addressed with enhanced resources, opportunities and experiences that meet the holistic needs of our Blue Hens—overall health, academic achievement, professional development and more.

Make a gift today to help us reimagine and enhance the offerings for mental health resources, academic success, career readiness with experiential learning and much more. You will help cultivate the next generation of changemakers, preparing them for great success and impact at UD and well beyond graduation.

Together, we can ensure the Blue Hen student experience is an unparalleled experience of growth and excellence. 

Sincerely,

José-Luis Riera
Vice President for Student Life
Proud Parent of a Class of 2025 Blue Hen
