Greetings from the President
2005-2007 Graduate Academic Catalog | Catalogs

Dear Student,

Welcome to Roosevelt University. I invite you to learn more about us through this catalog which is designed to serve as a record of our policies and the programs we offer.

During the past two years, my colleagues and I have developed a new Strategic Plan for Roosevelt which emphasizes high academic quality and student success. All of us are committed to meeting those objectives by recruiting talented students and then providing them with the tools they need to graduate and become productive citizens.

You will find that Roosevelt classes are small and faculty members are accessible to students. Our professors are universally recognized for being outstanding teachers and scholars. In fact, last year, 18 faculty members published books, and 100 members of the faculty wrote articles for scholarly journals in their fields of expertise.

As a Roosevelt student, you will be challenged on a daily basis so that when you graduate you will be prepared to make a mark in the world as a teacher, business person, musician, or as a leader in many other professions. However, there is much more to becoming an educated person than passing courses and earning a degree. As a member of this special community,m you will be shaped personally in many ways that will enrich your life and help define what kind of person you will become. I know that the opportunity to meet and engage other students from a rich array of backgrounds and experiences will be a significant part of your long-term success.

Roosevelt University has historically been a place where economic opportunity and social justice are attained through educational accomplishment. How that is done may change over time, but our common commitment is to work together for each individual’s success and development in all aspects of life.

Thank you for your interest in Roosevelt University. Please do not hesitate to contact a member of the Roosevelt community if you have questions about programs or academic requirements. And, may good fortune await you in your future.

Sincerely,

Charles R. Middleton
President
