Abbie knows how to balance a full plate. She was enrolled in ETSU’s online certificate program in One Health and Climate Studies, after earning her Master of Public Health (all while managing a busy and demanding home life). With a large family and caregiving responsibilities for elderly relatives, flexibility was essential. That’s what drew her to the program - the ability to learn on her own schedule made it possible to keep moving forward.

We can’t wait to see what you will tackle next, Abbie!

Homer Eugene Henley, Jr. truly embodies what it means to .

At 73 years old, he crossed the graduation stage to fulfill a dream more than 50 years in the making - earning his Bachelor’s of Science degree in Interdisciplinary Studies. Decades ago, Homer made the selfless decision to pause his education to care for a chronically ill parent, putting family before himself with remarkable love and devotion.

Today, Homer proudly joins the ranks of ETSU alumni, and we could not be more inspired by his perseverance, sacrifice, and achievement. His journey is a powerful reminder that it’s never too late to finish what you started.
