University at Buffalo President John B. Simpson will deliver his annual community address at 8 a.m. tomorrow (Wednesday, Sept. 23, 2009) in Asbury Hall, 341 Delaware Ave., on the corner of Tupper, in Buffalo.

More than 500 community stakeholders are expected to attend Simpson's fourth-annual community address, during which he will share progress on the implementation of UB 2020 and focus on the work ahead for the university and the community in order to fulfill the potential of UB's strategic plan.

Regionally, as well as nationally, public research universities like UB play a more critical role than ever in responding to these challenging economic times. As UB grows and improves, so will the economy of Buffalo Niagara and the quality of life of citizens of our region.
