‘Call Yourself a Team’

Pace University is a private metropolitan university that has campuses in New York City and Westchester, N.Y.

The institution currently is in the midst of a $100 million campaign — the most ambitious fundraising effort in its more than 100-year history — to fund scholarships, support faculty, install state-of-the-art technology and facilities on campus, and improve its academic programming. Thanks in part to a $15 million gift from Verizon CEO Ivan Seidenberg, the campaign had raised $65 million by the time it went public in late April.
