“We train students to be interdisciplinary problem-solvers and to do things that benefit mankind. Science for the good of the world.” – Ulysses J. Sofia, dean of W.M. Keck Science Department
Thanks to several generous donors, the College broke ground on this transformational initiative in May 2022 and The Nucleus opened its doors to students and faculty in fall 2024. However, additional support is needed.
