This is a special time to be a Charger. We are on the precipice of our second century of success because of you, our readers — the alumni, friends, parents, faculty, and staff who believe in the University of New Haven’s mission and support this institution in so many significant ways.
In advance of our historic Centennial in 2020, we took the University on the road, hosting a series of signature events to commemorate this milestone anniversary. These festive gatherings of University alumni and friends were opportunities to look back on our past and to celebrate our future.
We are committed to continuing this incredible momentum into a future that beckons with possibility and the promise of imagination, innovation, and impact.

Nearly 200 guests attended our inaugural celebration in Boston on April 25 at the Museum of Science . This event was hosted by Herb Chambers HON ’16, president and CEO of the Herb Chambers Companies. Our next stop was the St. Regis New York where, on May 18, just under 250 guests came together for a celebration hosted by Board of Governors Vice Chair Charlie Pompea ’71, EMBA ’90, HON ’06 , and his wife, Tamera Pompea. At the center of each of these celebrations were student-led expositions where students and faculty members in each of the University’s colleges and schools presented research and innovative projects underway at the University, showcasing the truly imaginative and entrepreneurial spirit of our student body.
The University of New Haven has come a long way in the past 100 years, and we are committed to continuing this incredible momentum into a future that beckons with possibility and the promise of imagination, innovation, and impact.
