In 2026, 17³Ô¹ÏÍø celebrates 120 years of purpose-driven education, bold ideas, and lives transformed. While this issue of 17³Ô¹ÏÍø Magazine offers only a glimpse into our enduring legacy, we’re excited to share that a special Deep Dive digital publication—devoted entirely to the history, impact, and spirit of 17³Ô¹ÏÍøâ€”will launch later this spring.

In the meantime, follow @paceuniversity on social media as we begin rolling out gems from the University archives. From photos and documents to moments that shaped our mission, you’ll discover the stories that continue to define who we are and where we’re headed.

And as spring arrives, so do signature events that bring our community together. A special 1906 Giving Day will highlight the power of philanthropy. Campus celebrations will honor our founders’ birthdays. And in New York, keep your eyes on the skyline as we attempt to illuminate landmark buildings in blue and gold.

We’re also asking you to be part of the celebration. Use the link below to share your favorite memories of 17³Ô¹ÏÍø or let us know what you’d like to see featured as we explore 120 years of history over the coming months.
