Scholars Fuel The Skyline


Scholars Fuel the Skyline is an initiative that brings to light the remarkable contributions of students and alumni from the colleges and universities within America’s Urban Campus (AUC) network. This campaign focuses on scholars who have significantly impacted Chicago’s cultural, social, and economic realms through their academic and professional endeavors. As these scholars strive for excellence in their careers, they also play a crucial role in enhancing Chicago’s reputation as a dynamic center of innovation and education. This platform not only celebrates their outstanding achievements but also underscores their profound influence on the community. It embodies the spirit of progress and collaboration that is central to Chicago’s educational landscape. Our overarching goal is to showcase Chicago as an exceptional location for both students and businesses, highlighting the strong workforce developed through our higher education institutions, which in turn fosters a thriving environment for business and innovation.
