Thank you to our friends who continue to support these programs, our students, and campus life. You are helping create opportunities for this generation of future leaders, and we appreciate it every day.

Daphna and Gerry Cramer Syracuse Student Exchange

Students from the Lauder School of Government, Diplomacy, and Strategy traveled to Syracuse University in August as part of the Daphna and Gerry Cramer Student Exchange.

After completing their studies at Syracuse, the group continued on to Washington, D.C., and then to New York City, where they met with Lauren Cramer, AFORU board member. Lauren introduced the students to her colleagues, who shared insights about their important work supporting non-profits with legal matters.

A heartfelt thank-you to the Cramer family for their continued support and partnership!
