A Christmas Reflection: Message from the President

Dear Schiller International University Community,

As the year draws to a close, I would like to take a moment to reflect on the journey we have shared and to express my sincere appreciation for being part of the Schiller community.

This season means different things to different people. Some of you are celebrating Christmas with family and friends, others are observing different traditions, and many are simply using this time to pause, rest, and recharge. Wherever you are, and however you mark this moment, I hope you feel connected to the global community that unites us across campuses, cultures, and continents.

For many students at our campuses in Tampa, Madrid, Paris or Heidelberg , this time of year is spent far from home, navigating new environments and experiences. Your resilience, curiosity, and openness to learning, both inside and outside the classroom, continue to define what it means to be part of Schiller.

At Schiller, education goes beyond academics. It is about lived experience, global awareness, and the relationships we build along the way. These values become especially visible at the end of the year, when reflection, gratitude, and human connection take center stage.

As we look ahead, I encourage you to take pride in what you have achieved and to approach the year to come with confidence and optimism. Thank you for your energy, your engagement, and your contribution to the diverse and vibrant community that makes Schiller International University unique.

To those celebrating Christmas, I wish you a joyful and peaceful holiday. To everyone in our community, I wish you a restful end of the year and a positive start to the one ahead.

Warm regards, 
Dr. Marta Muñiz 
President CEO 
Schiller International University
