Our country is in a mental health crisis. And our colleges and universities are in a student mental health crisis. This was true before the pandemic. And I�鶹��ý�ve written before about how it�鶹��ý�s getting worse. May is National Mental Health Awareness Month, and before the month ends it�鶹��ý�s time for us all to commit to giving our students the support and resources they need.

As debates continue about how to solve the student loan crisis in our country, one federal program with significant benefits doesn�鶹��ý�t get enough attention. The Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program was created in 2007 to help federal student loan borrowers who choose to go into nonprofit or governmental careers, which typically pay less than jobs in the for-profit sector.

President Krislov shares his excitement about the biggest Commencement ceremony in Pace history�鶹��ý�celebrating three class years across six schools and colleges and from all three Pace campuses. It will be a day to remember.

Marvin Krislov, Pace�鶹��ý�s president, said that superb online instruction is part of the future of higher education. �鶹��ý�We believe that online education can be excellent education, and so it�鶹��ý�s not just flexibility but it�鶹��ý�s the quality of the experience,�鶹��ý� Krislov said.

President Krislov shares news and updates for Pace, gives an update on Commencement 2022, and shares his well-wishes for the season.

I�鶹��ý�m a big believer in the power of mentorship. I know I�鶹��ý�ve benefited from the support and wisdom of mentors. And, as I�鶹��ý�ve written before, I�鶹��ý�ve seen how that kind of coaching and support can be both a big benefit for college students and a benefit to those who serve as mentors, too.

President Krislov reflects on a return to "normalcy" on campus with the move back to Green COVID-19 Alert level and what that means for the Pace Community, the tragic loss of student Jordan Robinson, and his hopes for an exciting return to an in-person Commencement.

In their first semester at �鶹��ý, all incoming undergraduates take a class we call UNV 101, an introduction-to-college course that teaches them how to be effective students and helps them map their Pace Path, a plan that will guide them through their four years with us and bring them to graduation ready to achieve their career goals. Each year, I teach a section of UNV 101, and I find it a valuable window into the student experience.
