Over the last decade under President Paxson, Brown has reached new levels of excellence in strengthening education, research, operations, campus life and engaged communities. We reflect on all that we have achieved together under her exceptional leadership as we look ahead to the next decade.
Spring Weekend is back! For the first time since 2019 students gathered on the Main Green to take a break from studying and celebrate the near completion of the academic year.
The treasured College Hill event featured an impressive lineup with a diverse array of talented artists including Amaarae, Flo Milli, Tems, Ari Lennox and more. #BrownU

On March 10, 1972, Brown University made a bold decision to support the creation of a four-year program in medicine. In a statement after the vote, the Corporation wrote: “It is this integration of medical education with the social sciences, humanities and other sciences which seems to us the most important feature of the new program and the one which promises to give it a special niche in medical education on the national scene.”
Built on that cornerstone, the Warren Alpert Medical School has become an innovator in medical education and research over the past five decades. Brown celebrates the 50 year legacy and impact of the Medical School while looking ahead to the discoveries and innovations to come.

Speaking as a public health expert, Jha describes how the short-term measures Brown is implementing are effective in reversing upward trends of positive tests, demonstrate the institution’s commitment to keeping its community healthy and help ensure that the campus can remain “open” in the long run.

On Thursday, April 1, Brown launched Phase II of its Diversity and Inclusion Action Plan, reaffirming the essential role of diversity and inclusion to academic excellence, and outlining new actions toward a more fully equitable community.
In the five years since the Diversity and Inclusion Action Plan was implemented, Brown has increased diversity among faculty, staff and students, created new opportunities for underrepresented scholars to teach and conduct research, and established a campus-wide understanding of the essential roles that diversity, equity and inclusion play in Brown’s success as a leading research university.
