BYU President's Report

Prophets have inspired BYU since its beginning, and they continue to guide this enterprise during this, our 150th year. That is our strategic advantage as we seek to “become BYU,” the “Christ-centered, prophetically directed university of prophecy.”

Most campuses leverage anniversary milestones as an excuse to put the fun back in fundraising, but BYU is different. While our fundraising efforts are ongoing and we are grateful for every donation received, we see our 150th anniversary as an opportunity to collectively reflect on what we’re doing to fulfill the prophetic vision laid out in President Spencer W. Kimball’s amazing and awe-inspiring address, “The Second Century of Brigham Young University.”

President Kimball prophesied that BYU would “become a unique university in all of the world” and “the fully anointed university of the Lord.” Such a lofty vision will only come to pass with our collective and combined efforts.
