As Hurricane Irma and Hurricane Maria have impacted islands throughout the Caribbean, we are proud to join with our destination partners to assist residents and communities following the storms, while providing financial support to a wide variety of relief organizations and doing our part to help the region in its recovery. The Caribbean and its residents hold a special place in our hearts and we are committed to participating in the ongoing relief effort and providing assistance to those who need our help. Carnival Cruise Line and our parent company Carnival Corporation are providing extensive and wide-ranging relief to those affected by these storms, with ships delivering critical supplies to impacted islands, including food, water, and other essential items, to assist residents throughout the region. Carnival Corporation, Miami HEAT Charitable Fund and the foundation of Carnival Corporation Chairman Micky Arison and his wife Madeleine (the Micky and Madeleine Arison Family Foundation) have pledged up to $10 million in funding and in-kind support in Florida and throughout the Caribbean following Hurricane Irma. An immediate donation by the Micky and Madeleine Arison Foundation of $2.5 million will benefit Direct Relief, UNICEF and the United Way to support the most timely and urgent relief needs. Carnival is also donating proceeds from ticket sales for two recent Carnival LIVE performances by comedian Chris Tucker aboard Carnival Liberty and Carnival Breeze to hurricane relief. In addition, for Hurricane Harvey, Carnival Cruise Line, Carnival Corporation and the Micky and Madeleine Arison Family Foundation have already donated $2 million toward relief organizations that are providing food, water, medicine, shelter and other basic necessities to residents in affected communities. Our thoughts continue to be with everyone affected by these storms. Additional information: http://phx.corporate-ir.net/phoenix.zhtml?c=200767&p=irol-newsArticle&ID=2300778

Expressed in its still-relevant motto Urbi et Orbi, the mission of LIU since 1926 has been to open the doors of the city and the world to men and women of all ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds who wish to achieve the satisfaction of the educated life and to serve the public good. Its mission is to awaken, enlighten and expand the minds of its students. Generation after generation, the students who have enrolled at LIU Brooklyn have come from varied, primarily urban backgrounds. Like their predecessors, many of today's students are new to America and new to the English language or are the first in their families to seek a university education. At LIU Brooklyn, all students find an academic community where cultural, ethnic, religious, racial, sexual, and individual differences are respected and where commonalities are affirmed. This requires the Campus to be open and welcoming, even as it maintains respect for intellectual, cultural and academic traditions.
