Celebrating Canisius University

July 13, 2021

Buffalo, NY - On behalf of the Board of Regents, Canisius University is excited to announce Celebrating Canisius: 151 Years of Excellence. The occasion, scheduled for Friday, November 5 at The Atrium @ Rich's, is a reimagination of the former Regents Scholarship Ball as committee members seek to host a less formal but more inclusive event for all members of our Canisius family.

Longtime alumni and supporters, and newer graduates and friends are welcome to celebrate the Canisius tradition of excellence. Event proceeds help fund scholarships for deserving students so they may extend that proud tradition into the future.

The event will be co-chaired by members of the Pullano family, which includes Board of Regents member Lynn A. Pullano ’85, her husband Gerald F. ’85, daughters Rebecca L. Sauer MBAPA ’14 and Laura D. Harris ’15, MBAACC ’16, and sons-in-laws Matthew Sauer and Adam R. Harris ’16, MBAACC ’17.

Lynn and Gerry Pullano have been Canisius supporters for nearly four decades, volunteering on reunion and alumni activity committees, serving on the Council on Accountancy and participating in the Leadership Society. Five out of the six family members are Griffs, and all three couples were married at Christ the King Chapel.

As we hit a positive turning point in our current landscape, it is the perfect opportunity to celebrate - in person - everything Blue & Gold.
