Stony Brook University’s mission, vision and very essence are built on the principles of providing equal access to world-class education in a caring environment, where we respect and embrace our differences, take responsibility to protect our local communities, and practice civility at all times. We promote inclusion, welcome freedom of expression, encourage civil discourse, and take a firm stand against divisiveness and insensitivity in all venues and forms. This site – Caring, Respect, Civility – provides resources and support to help us all remember these values and practice these behaviors. This is more important than ever in today’s challenging and changing educational, political and social climate. Together, we can stay Stony Brook Strong, and continue to build and role model the culture that is the hallmark of our University.

GIVING DAY
2021
Stony Brook University Announces Giving Day 2021: April 21!
On April 21, Stony Brook University will host its third annual “Giving Day,” a 24-hour fundraising drive to generate support for students, faculty and research, and to help advance Stony Brook Medicine’s mission to provide the highest quality healthcare.
In 2020, a record number of alumni, faculty and staff, students, parents, grateful patients and friends helped Stony Brook surpass its Giving Day goal, donating over $300,000 to more than 90 initiatives across the University. This year, as Stony Brook continues to recover from the financial repercussions of the pandemic, the support generated by the event will be even more essential.
To inspire participation, all gifts made on April 21 will be tracked in real-time on Stony Brook’s Giving Day website.
