CRIMSON Laureate Society

Science and math drive technological and social progress, improve lives, and enable us to face the global challenges affecting today’s world. Much of this work begins right here at the College of Science, where researchers drive transformative discoveries in drug development, clean energy, data science, climate change, and astronomy, while training future scientists, doctors, business leaders, and more.

In March, we launched the Crimson Laureate Society, a group dedicated to advancing science and math at the University of Utah. We now have over 660 members, making the contributions that drive outreach, education, and research in your College while gaining exclusive, member-only benefits like VIP event invitations.

The holiday season provides an opportunity both to reflect on accomplishments like these, and to look forward to ways of making 2018 even more impactful for science and our students. That’s why I am asking you to join your fellow alumni and science supporters by establishing your Crimson Laureate Society membership.

Sincerely,

Henry S. White Dean, College of Science, and Distinguished Professor of Chemistry

CRIMSON Laureate Society The College of Science Dean’s Office provides the foundation for the success of our students and researchers.

Right now, we have nearly 2,500 students pursuing undergraduate and graduate degrees in astronomy, biology, chemistry, mathematics, and physics. In addition, we teach thousands of students from other areas of campus the science and mathematics principles that they need for success in their careers.

One of our most important jobs is to ensure students’ access to the rich experience of pursuing their passion for science, and the many benefits that come with a science or mathematics degree. That’s why we offer more than 100 scholarships that reward academic performance and help students overcome the obstacles that can make it difficult for them to succeed.

The Center for Science and Mathematics Education administers innovative programs at and beyond our campus, training educators, creating new opportunities for refugee students, and making connections between scientists and new parts of our community.

This holiday season, I hope you will join the Crimson Laureate Society and take an active role in advancing the cause of science on our campus and around the world.

Sincerely,

Henry S. White Dean, College of Science, and Distinguished Professor of Chemistry
