THE PACE STORY:
Pace is a university whose resources have played an essential role in the realization of individual dreams of achievement andwhose mission is voiced in its motto: Opportunitas.
Founded in 1906 by the Pace brothers as a business school for men and women who aspired to a better life, Pace Institute beganits transformation into a modern university, with emphasis on the liberal arts and sciences, under Robert Pace 42 years later. Withdynamic leadership and fiscally sound management, Pace has grown into one of the largest universities in New York State, with amulti-million dollar physical plant, an endowment of over $100 million and a reputation for excellent teaching and talented, am-bitious graduates.
Pace is a comprehensive university with five schools and one college that offers a wide range of academic and professional pro-grams for a large, diverse population of more than 13,000 students in for-credit programs, and in affiliated offerings. Through itsLubin School of Business, Pace continues to build its reputation for excellence in business education. The Lienhard School ofNursing, the School of Law, the School of Education and the Seidenberg School of Computer Science and Information Systemsare more recent responses to the needs of the New York City and Westchester communities for strong professional schools to pre-pare a well-educated workforce.
The University's decision in 1948 to develop a college of arts and sciences as both an autonomous academic unit and a foundationfor the undergraduate core curriculum has strengthened and enriched the educational experience of Pace students and provided anongoing source of intellectual enrichment to the University. The Dyson College of Arts and Sciences is central to the intellectuallife of Pace, to shaping academic priorities, and to providing ethical, humanistic and scientific principles upon which lives and ca-reers are founded.
At the heart of Pace's academic values is an historic commitment to excellence in teaching, as manifested by small classes, an em-phasis on skill development and critical thinking, special tutoring and support services, and academic advising. Academic experi-ences at Pace emphasize teaching from both a practical and theoretical perspective, drawing upon the expertise of faculty whobalance academic preparation with professional experience to bring a unique dynamic to the classroom.
While the primary emphasis of the institution is on excellent teaching, the university supports and encourages scholarly activity toensure the intellectual vitality of the faculty. While much of the work has had professional application, Pace particularly invitesscholarship that directly relates to the classroom experience and involves students in the research process.
Pace has always had a student-centered focus and is committed to providing access to those who range widely in age, ethnicity,socio-economic background and academic preparation. Increasing amounts of institutional financial aid to help students meet thegrowing costs of a private education; locations in New York City and Westchester County; evening, weekend and summer sched-uling; and special counseling and academic support services are ways in which the university has sought to enhance the accessi-bility and opportunities of a Pace education.
A significant tradition of Pace University is its strong relationship with business, civic and community organizations. Offeringspecial programs and services to neighboring institutions and corporate partners, the university gains strength in return from thesepartnerships and derives benefits for its students from the networks these linkages provide.
The future of Pace University will be shaped by its traditions and values as they respond to the current needs and expectations oftoday's students. Combining excellence in instruction with personal attention, Pace provides the virtues of the small arts and sci-ences college with the curricular richness, scholarly disposition and excellent professional programs of the research and compre-hensive institution.
HISTORY OF PACE UNIVERSITY:
Founded in 1906 by the Pace brothers, Homer and Charles, The Pace Institute was a business school for men and women who as-pired to a better life.
Homer and Charles Pace borrowed $600 to rent a classroom and office in the old Tribune building in lower Manhattan to teach 10men and three women the principles of accounting and business law. That building once stood where the Pace Plaza buildingstands today.
88
Two years later, because of the overwhelming success of the Pace School of Accountancy, the Pace brothers relocated classes to thenearby Hudson Terminal complex. Another move to the Transportation Building at 225 Broadway took place in 1927 in response tocontinued growth.
In 1948, Pace Institute was approved for college status by the New York Board of Regents. Academic expansion forced yet anothermove to 41 Park Row in 1951, and two years later Pace College received authorization from the State Education Department togrant the bachelor of arts degree.
Classes began on the Pleasantville campus in 1963. The year before, the Marks Hall building was signed over to the College byPace Trustee Wayne Marks, President of General Foods, and his wife, Helen. Soon after, Dyson Hall was constructed, named inhonor of alumnus, Trustee and benefactor, Charles H. Dyson. Willcox Hall was named for Trustee and benefactor Byron Willcox.
In 1965, the Undergraduate School of Business Administration, the School of Arts and Sciences and the School of Education wereestablished. The year following, the School of Nursing was founded and was later named after alumnus, Trustee and benefactorGustav Lienhard. In December 1966, at the groundbreaking ceremony for the Civic Center building, Vice President HubertHumphrey promised to teach at Pace and conducted a Scholar-in-Residence seminar at the New York City campus.
Finally, in 1973, the State Education Department approved Pace College's petition for university status. Two years later, the Col-lege of White Plains consolidated with Pace University, and the School of Law was established in 1976. The assets of BriarcliffCollege were acquired in 1977. In the years following, an international education center was opened by IBM Corporation, NYNEXopened a center and the Hastings Center moved its operations to the Briarcliff site. In 1983, the School of Computer Science andInformation Systems was established as its own entity. In 1997, Pace purchased the World Trade Institute, a leading-edge providerof international training programs.
Pace University today is a diverse institution with over 13,000 students. For 100 years, bright, motivated and talented men andwomen have walked out of Pace's many doors, degrees in hand, and have ventured into the world prepared for the challenges ofeach passing decade. Every year, curriculum offerings in schools and colleges are modified to meet the changing needs of ambi-tious and knowledgeable students.
Throughout the years since 1906, Pace has grown along with the talents of those who comprise what is affectionately known as the"Pace community." The Pace tradition is something in which we can all take pride.

MISSION STATEMENT:Pace University is committed to providing the best possible private education to a diverse and talented studentbody at each Pace University location. The University’s continuous commitment to Opportunitas must be retained,strengthened and, when necessary, redefined in an uncertain world where many are excluded from the full benefitsof higher education due to economic and social factors beyond their control. Pace’s sustained emphasis on excel-lence will be a constant, which will guide decision-making regarding academic programs and other endeavors. Ina world of increasing interdependence, Pace must strengthen its international efforts and continue its significantinvestment in technology. In addition, the University’s commitment to self-evaluation and civic engagement mustremain as major goals. All of this must be accomplished during a time of considerable economic change and in thecontext of strengthening Pace’s own financial base.
