Dear Alumni and Friends,

Just a few weeks ago, TC reopened its doors for in-person learning and the energy is palpable.  As I write this letter, I hear lively conversations and excitement just outside my door. The hallways and classrooms are filled with students, faculty, and staff who are all the more ready to create a smarter, healthier, and more equitable world.

During the past 18 months, our students never wavered in the pursuit of knowledge. Our faculty reimagined and innovated new, virtual teaching methods while remaining focused on ground-breaking research. And you, our alumni and friends, showed resilience and leadership through your continued care for your families and communities.  

I am overjoyed to say TC is back. We are together. And your support makes us stronger than ever.

When you give to TC, you join us in developing leaders and changemakers who will continue making a difference here and around the world in the fields of health, education and psychology. I hope you will join our donor community by making a gift to Teachers College. Your support is needed as we continue to navigate this pandemic – together.

When you give to TC, your generosity supports:

  • 400+ faculty members in critical research and leadership roles 
  • Our 80 academic programs, 10 academic departments and 30+ research centers and institutes
  • Exciting new initiatives like the recent launch of TC NEXT, our re-envisioned career services office which provided support to over 2000 alumni and 30% of the student population in the past year.  
  • Over $15 million awarded annually in institutional scholarships.

These have been uncertain and difficult times and I hope you and your families have remained safe and well. The TC community has proven there is not a single challenge that we cannot meet. We will always be – TC Strong. 

Be well,


Tom Bailey Signature
