A Noteworthy Goodbye for a Noteworthy Guy!

After more than a decade of leading the University of Dayton with vision, warmth and an unwavering commitment to our Catholic, Marianist mission, President Eric F. Spina will retire in June 2027.

During his presidency, President Spina has personally written more than 10,000 notes to students, faculty, staff and friends — that’s nearly 2.5 notes every single day! Now it’s our turn.
