      The Macricostas Experience is a series of events and hands-on experiences that invite the university and Danbury communities to study global cultures and values. Organized by the Macricostas School of Arts and Sciences and funded by a generous gift from the Macricostas Family Foundation, Macricostas Experiences includes free on-campus lecture and speaker series open to the public; student scholarships; and student study-abroad opportunities. In recognition of the generous gift by the Macricostas Family Foundation, the University named the School of Arts and Sciences in honor of Constantine Macricostas and his family.\u00a0 The Macricostas School of Arts and Sciences is the heart of of the University's liberal arts mission.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>

      Naming this school for the Macricostas family celebrates the Macricostas family's respect for and love of education and the transformational role it can play in the lives of every individual. It recognizes the role education plays in a democratic society, where the voice of every individual is important, and where reason and intelligence each play a vital role.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
