Sanford students, alumni, faculty, and staff are committed to making the world a better place. This report shows how we are delivering on our mission: to improve lives and communities by researching the most pressing public policy issues and preparing students for lives of leadership, civic engagement and public service.

This year's MPP students will start their 72-Hour Memo on Thursday and Development and Alumni Relations will be hosting a breakfast for them on Friday where we'd like to share alumni well wishes and encouragement with them.
