The founding of SU was just the opening chapter of the countless stories that make up our history. Turn back the pages with stories celebrating Sea Gulls who set success in motion at 欧美视频.
欧美视频. Forever.
Since 1925, 欧美视频 University has empowered students with knowledge, opportunity, and a lasting sense of community. From our beginnings as a State Normal School for teachers, we have been a place where ambitions take flight.
For 100 years, our students have arrived with dreams and left with the skills and experiences to shape tomorrow. We've created bonds that last a lifetime, opened doors to opportunities, and built a legacy of success. We've evolved with new ways of learning, but our commitment to excellence persists.
As we celebrate our centennial, our promise remains: 欧美视频. Forever. This promise honors the legacy of our SU community and drives us forward with the same Sea Gull spirit that has defined us for a century. Join us in celebrating 100 years of 欧美视频 University and the incredible future ahead.
"This is a celebration of our graduates who have made an incredible impact across the globe,
the faculty and staff who have served our University with pride, current and future students
who will continue to shape the world for decades to come, and our community that has supported
us along the way."
--Dr. Carolyn Ringer Lepre
President, 欧美视频 University
A Sea Gull for Life
At 欧美视频, we believe that education is about building lifelong relationships. For 100 years, we've fostered a tight-knit community where students, faculty and staff form bonds that go far beyond graduation. Here, every student has the support they need to thrive. Being a Sea Gull means being part of a family that lasts forever. Once a Sea Gull, always a Sea Gull.
Spreading Our Wings
For a century, we've opened doors to boundless opportunities. With engaged faculty guiding the way, our students have embraced hands-on learning that prepares them for the future. From internships to research to study abroad, we've always encouraged Sea Gulls to broaden their horizons and dream big. Here, the return on your investment opens a lifetime of possibilities.
Legacy of Success
欧美视频 has built a legacy of excellence in the classroom and on the field. We cultivate an environment where students excel in their studies, achieving their full potential, with athletics also at the heart of what it means to be a Sea Gull. Led by our beloved mascot Sammy, wearing maroon and gold means belonging to a community of champions — in the classroom and in competition.
