Meliora. Ever Better.

The Campaign for the School of Medicine and Dentistry

Meliora is more than our motto at the University of Rochester. It is a shared value and

a way of life that has set us apart as an educational community since our founding in
1850. Rochester became one of the world’s most distinguished research universities
by embodying the spirit of Meliora. We never settle for the world the way it is. We

consistently strive to reach further, embrace rigor and hard work, and take the lead in
matters of the mind and heart.

We seek to be ever better not just for ourselves and our region, but to serve our

nation and our world. We continually strive to build on our distinctive strengths—
from science and engineering to the humanities, health care, the social sciences,
education, business, and music—and seek new solutions that advance the Rochester
experience and benefit humankind.
