A Note to Our Readers

So many of our readers have shared with us how much you cherish TC Today, and it’s been a joy for our team to reimagine the magazine and bring it back. At a time of much uncertainty, with media competing for your attention in every sector of our lives, we hope this publication offers you refuge: a moment to put your feet up and join your community, wherever you are, in reflecting on the uplifting and meaningful work of Teachers College, and especially our alumni across the globe. You’re part of something meaningful, and there’s so much to be proud of. 

At TC Today’s home in the Office of Institutional Advancement, our storytelling is driven by providing our community with value — through inspiring stories and insightful knowledge — and this magazine is another route in that journey. Our 100,000 alumni are making an impact through collaboration on campus and in all corners of the world. 

This is for you, and we look forward to your feedback and ideas, which you can share at tctoday@tc.edu

Yours truly, from TC Way,
The TC Today Team
