Today, on National Higher Education Day, we celebrate the power of public universities to transform lives, strengthen communities and fuel what comes next. As part of Ohio’s 14 public universities, The University of Toledo is proud to help prepare the educators, engineers, scientists, healthcare professionals and business leaders our state needs to grow and thrive. That work happens every day — through experienced-based learning, research and discovery as an R1 university, patient-centered care through UToledo Health and partnerships that turn ideas into impact for northwest Ohio and beyond. Across Ohio, public universities power a $68 billion economy, support 865,000 jobs and create opportunity in every corner of the state. At UToledo, we’re proud to be part of that momentum — building pathways for students, advancing solutions for our communities and helping shape a stronger future for Ohio. #NationalHigherEducationDay
