1992–Present
Founded with a gift from Joseph Jacobs, the Center for New Deal Studies supports the study of the University’s namesakes. Since 1992, the center has examined the legacy of Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt, hosting events and programs for the community. It’s also home to 1,500 pieces of FDR memorabilia.
The annual Franklin & Eleanor Roosevelt Distinguished Lecture has welcomed a U.S. surgeon general, a former president of Brazil and multiple ambassadors.
