Arlene Pecora Supports Nova Southeastern University

Arlene Pecora is well known in the South Florida community for her activity in many local foundations such as NSU.

As an alumnus of NSU, Arlene has given generously to the growth and development of the campus. Her philanthropic efforts led to the launch of The Michael and Arlene Pecora Hospitality Pavilion, a modern food court and dining area in NSU’s new University Center.

Today, NSU is the nation’s sixth largest, not-for-profit, independent university, with more than 28,000 students and 103,000 alumni; a sprawling, 300-acre Fort Lauderdale-Davie campus; and a presence in nine countries around the world. Through five decades of explosive growth, our reputation for academic excellence and innovation continues to flourish.

In 1964, what was then called Nova University was chartered as a graduate institution in the physical and social sciences. Over time, Nova added programs in law, education, business, psychology, computer science, and oceanography, and, in 1972, introduced its first off-campus course of study, in education. Soon, Nova became nationally recognized for its innovative distance learning programs. Today, field-based programs are located throughout Florida, in 23 states, and at selected international sites.
