Testimonials

Peter G. Robinson, Vice President & COO, Medical Center & Strong Health, Colonel

My military experience has been foundational to my career at the University of Rochester and the Medical Center. From my initial assignment as a motor vehicle operator to my last position as a corps support group commander, I have benefited from the army’s educational programs and a breadth of assignments that have prepared me to be an effective team member and a leader. In the military we are mission focused and learn to perform at the highest level. We are fortunate at the University that we have a mission that we can support and believe in every bit as much as we do in the armed forces. There is no better preparation for a career at the University than a successful military experience. As veterans we are well positioned to make valuable contributions to the future success of the University of Rochester.
