Diana Bruce, Arts & Sciences ‘18 @dianabruce I loved my experience at Pitt as an undergraduate student. I knew I didn’t want my connection with the University to end after graduation. Giving back allows me to help facilitate programs and opportunities for the Pitt Community. I know that every dollar given is a dollar towards strengthening Pitt pride and tradition... no matter how much you can give. I’m proud to be part of that. Hail to Pitt!... - - The fifth annual Pitt Day of Giving is just two weeks away!

A message from Chancellor Patrick Gallagher on today's violence at the U.S. Capitol Building: "As an institution of higher education, the University of Pittsbur...gh acts as a beacon, elucidating the way forward for society and lighting a path toward a better future. As such, we strongly denounce the seditious and violent acts taken today to undermine the outcome of the 2020 presidential election. Our system of government is based on a shared commitment and obligation, bestowed upon every citizen, to uphold the Constitution and laws governing our nation. Our elected officials have a special responsibility: a sworn duty to support, protect and defend our Constitution and laws, including against the very attacksphysical assaults on others as well as direct assaults on the core principles of our democracythat unfolded at the U.S. Capitol Building today. None of us has ever seennor expected to seesuch acts on American soil. Today’s events remind us that our democracy is not to be taken for granted. It is only as strong as our shared commitment to uphold its ideals and strive together to create a more perfect union. It must be nurtured, supported and defended. Despite today’s tragic events, I am not without hope. I see our country’s future leaders in our students, and they compel me to believe that this democracy is stronger than the shameful chapter we witnessed today."
