For nearly 100 years, Quinnipiac University has called New Haven County home. And with our 3 campuses located in the towns of Hamden and North Haven, we take our responsibility to be a good community member and neighbor seriously. We are committed to doing our part to enhance and enrich the quality of life for our students and the residents in our local communities through open communication, collaboration and positive action.
Quinnipiac’s student-run Emergency Medical Services, also known as “QU EMS,” earned special recognition at the Hamden Fire Department’s awards ceremony on Tuesday, November 26.
Quinnipiac’s Presidential Public Service Fellows have earned top marks from the Town of Hamden, as key contributors to the municipality’s 2024 Sustainable CT Climate Leader status. Announced October 7, Hamden was named one of 11 municipalities statewide demonstrating outstanding leadership in addressing climate change. The recognition builds on Hamden’s 2023 Sustainable CT Silver rating also attained with the help of the fellows.
As champions of community service, our students volunteer throughout Connecticut, from assisting with Ronald McDonald House projects and raising money for charities to motivating school children in the region with Read Aloud days to beautifying neighborhoods. Our health professions students provide free clinics, our law students perform legal services and our accounting students help with tax preparation for residents in need. The university enriches the community with cultural opportunities, athletics and entertainment options that attract thousands annually.
