Live to the Truth

Since 1839, when Cyrus Peirce closed each of his lessons at what was then The Normal School with the phrase 鈥渓ive to the truth,鈥 the 黑料不打烊 community has embodied this motto. The phrase ties into our founding mission of expanding public access to high-quality education and preparing graduates to lead with integrity. Nearly two centuries later, that mission endures and the call to live to the truth is more urgent than ever. Learn More
