Stephen Ciccone takes pride in introducing University of New Hampshire students to the world of finance.  

From hands-on learning with the Atkins Investment Group to organizing high-profile events like the Bretton Woods Accounting and Finance Conference, Ciccone, an associate professor of finance at UNH Peter T. Paul College of Business and Economics, is always looking for ways to bring the subject to life.  

With a new $6 million National Science Foundation grant, UNH will lead a Nature-based Solutions project that aims to combat climate change risks in marginalized communities.

Some high-profile visitors rolled through campus during the last week of October, as cast and crew from the Amazon Prime show The College Tour came to Durham to film for an upcoming episode that will feature UNH and is set to air in spring.

Craig and Linda Rydin both arrived at UNH as first-year students, making the adjustment to life on a college campus from the small industrial city of Berlin in northern New Hampshire. They thrived through that transition, and their UNH experiences opened doors that would likely not have been accessible otherwise, leading to both personal reward and professional success.

But their story is not unique — because they didn’t want it to be. For nearly two decades, their generosity has made it possible for deserving students to follow directly in their footsteps.

When the College of Engineering and Physical Sciences (CEPS) officially unveiled the CEPS Makerspace in September of 2023, it represented the fulfillment of a vision Kevan Carpenter, director of the CEPS Technical Services Center, had been hoping to bring to life for years.

But he wondered if the students – the primary intended audience for the co-working space focused on innovation and creativity – would find the resource as valuable as he did.

He's not wondering anymore.

Every year, a chosen few of UNH’s outstanding faculty members from each college and school receive Faculty Excellence Awards in recognition of their achievements in teaching, scholarship and service. University-wide awards recognize public service, research, teaching and engagement. The 2024 award recipients include:

New Hampshire's Rapid Response mobile crisis response teams are on the front lines of the state’s mental health and substance use crises, providing immediate support to individuals experiencing a crisis in their communities. 

These responders come from diverse training backgrounds and work in pairs, often teaming up with professionals like peer support specialists or clinical responders to assess situations, de-escalate tensions and stabilize individuals — all without relying on hospitalization or law enforcement intervention.
