LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT Dr. Franco J. Vaccarino
Dear Colleagues:
Together, we transformed the University, through incredible enrolment growth, new academic buildings, residence halls,
new academic programs and the creation of a more beautiful campus. None of this would have been possible without the
forward thinking of our visionary donors.
I thank the corporations that not only gave generously, but also partnered with us in mentoring, and often hiring our
students. I thank the alumni who contributed so that students such as they once were could be helped in their
educational journeys. I thank our deans, faculty and staff for leading and organizing the compelling programs and
important research that inspired this support. I also thank our legislators for the Tier One legislation that leveraged
our donors' generosity to deliver the greatest possible impact, and The University of Guelph System Board of Regents for their visionary support.
Finally, I sincerely thank each member of the University Campaign Council for your help in championing the ambitions of
the University. We could not have made our goal without you. Detailed information can be found in the attachment to this
email. All employees are advised to review the information.
Yours sincerely,
Dr. Franco J. Vaccarino
President, University of Guelph
