As part of the University of New Haven’s Sports Leadership Exchange Speaker Series, President Jens Frederiksen hosted business leader and prominent sports executive Marc Lasry, the former co-owner of the NBA's Milwaukee Bucks, who offered lessons on building strong teams, creating positive culture, and turning passion into long-term success.

"It’s very important that you have an organization that people want to be a part of," he told the students. He explained that in both his investment firm and his involvement in sports, building the right culture has been essential for long-term success.

We were one of only a small number of colleges and universities to share an announcement soon after National College Decision Day that we received a record number of deposits for our Class of 2030. The Chronicle of Higher Education, one of the leading publications covering higher education, took notice and featured us in a recent story.

As Greg Eichhorn, our vice president of enrollment, said in the piece, it is important to reinforce to our incoming students and their families that they've made a great choice, they are part of a big class, and they are part of a winning product.

And we want our community to celebrate with us and help us welcome our newest Chargers!

Father and daughter Mia Ribellino ’25, ’26 M.S. and George Ribellino ’95 joined Charger 360 to reflect on their shared affinity for being Chargers. “I grew up coming to campus as a kid and always joked it was my dream school,” said Mia.

George, a native of Florida, looked back on his involvement as a student, including hosting postgame shows on WNHU and serving as editor of the Charger Bulletin. “I can’t tell you how much this school has done for me,” he said. Remembering the support he received across campus when his mother passed away when he was a student and the lifelong friends he has from his time as a Charger, he added, “It is truly a family.

Mia also talked about her work as an RA and highlighted the impact of Enhanced Learning Communities in the residence halls as well as the role faith and community plays in her family. “I’m beaming with pride,” dad said, as Mia responded, “I have a great role model.”

Four of our undergraduates worked tirelessly throughout the last academic year in preparation to take on peers from across the world, outperforming teams from Harvard, Yale, Penn, and UC Berkeley, among others much larger in size, in the global University Rover Challenge.

“So much work went into getting the four of us and our advisor there,” Samuel Rosen '27 reflected. “The plane ride to Utah was when it really hit me. We were about to compete against some of the top engineering schools from around the world. Arriving at the Mars Desert Research Station and seeing the terrain and all the other teams was an incredible feeling. We were a team of four going up against teams with hundreds of members (some of which were Ph.D. students), yet we had earned our place right alongside them.”

The University of New Haven’s Equity in the Media Fellowship program brought together the Charger community, local high schools, and industry professionals to discuss representation and career pathways in the media, offering valuable insight into ever-evolving and competitive industry.

“In today’s media, many voices are still missing from the conversation, especially from underrepresented cultures, orientations, and communities working both ‘on-screen’ and behind the scenes," said Professor Wayne Edwards, who created the fellowship. "The Fellowship provides students with access to diverse professionals who share how they’ve navigated barriers, challenged bias, and built impactful careers."

After taking part in an Election Observation Mission in Hungary, Olena Lennon, a practitioner-in-residence in national security, wrote a poignant reflection on the significance of the transition of power in the Central European country and explains why engaged citizens can have such a profound impact on the direction of their country.

"All in all, it was a privilege to witness such a historic election firsthand," she wrote. "Despite widespread concerns about the unevenness of the contest and despite the considerable advantages enjoyed by the incumbent government, an exceptionally high voter turnout demonstrated the power of citizen participation and the ability of voters to shape their country’s future through democratic means and a peaceful transfer of power."

In advance of Commencement, we asked Sheraud Wilder ’26 a few questions about his time spent at the University of New Haven, his plans for the future, and what he will remember most from being a Charger.

"I’m appreciative of the community that we cultivated and changed through our time at the University." he reflected. "Before coming here, there weren’t many places where I felt a sense of belonging. Take initiative. I am grateful for the ability to have some of the experiences and support that I do have and the people in my life who want to see me succeed."
