Dear Faculty, Staff, Students, Alumni, Family, and Friends,

As we approach the close of another year, I extend my heartfelt gratitude to each of you for your unwavering commitment to the mission and vision of the University of the Southern Caribbean. This year has been a testament to the strength of our community, the resilience of our spirit, and our shared dedication to go ‘Beyond Excellence.’

Together, we have embraced opportunities, navigated challenges, and achieved milestones that have further solidified our foundation. As we stand on the cusp of our centennial celebrations in 2027, this year-end Board of Trustees theme, "Strengthening Foundations, Expanding Horizons", resonates deeply. It reflects our focus on preserving the values that define us while aspiring to greater heights.

To our students, your determination to persist against challenging times inspires us daily. To our faculty and staff, your dedication is the cornerstone of our institution. To our alumni, family, and friends, your support is invaluable as we continue to grow and thrive as a community. The Board of Trustees and my administrative colleagues have once again demonstrated relentless fidelity to the strategic priorities of USC. As a collective, we have experienced God’s reminders of HIS guidance and providence to ensure the steady growth of the USC.

During this festive season, may you intentionally find time to reflect on the blessings of the year, cherish moments with loved ones, and look forward with hope and anticipation to the opportunities of the new year.

From all of us at USC, I wish you and your family a joyous holiday season and a prosperous, inspiring New Year.
