Events & Programs 
The Office of Presidential Events & Programs (PEP) supports the mission of the University by creating events and programs that embody the spirit of Discovery and actively engage the University’s varied constituents.
PEP supports the UNH story with key branding messages to develop a lasting, positive impression of the University by promoting and celebrating academic excellence and achievement such as Commencement and the Academic Convocation.
PEP produces events that help to strengthen the campus community. From the University Day Picnic featuring a Student Activities Fair showcasing opportunities to get involved at UNH to the President’s Holiday Skating Party for UNH faculty, staff, their families, and Durham residents, these programs foster a sense of unity and shared mission among members of the UNH on-campus community.
PEP plays a crucial role in connecting UNH with the New Hampshire community and working with state government by producing events and programs that highlight UNH as a valuable resource and demonstrate UNH’s excellence and statewide impact to members of New Hampshire’s General Court and citizens of the states.
PEP collaborates with key University departments to advance the University friendraising and fundraising initiatives such as the UNH Foundation’s Hubbard Award and the Wildcat Athletics Council’s Hall of Fame.
