This semester marked an exciting new chapter for the Healthcare Pathways Resource Center! From a new name and new space in Allen Hall to the ribbon cutting of the Drs. Karen and William Hulett Ambassador Hub, it’s been a season of growth.
Thank you to Dr. A. Randle, Marilyn W. White, and Drs. Karen and William Hulett for their support in making it all possible and investing in our students.

Cookie crumbs, great conversations, and even better company! 🍪

Thanks to all the researchers, faculty, staff & students, who joined us for the A&S Cookie Crawl. The cookies were delicious, but the conversations were the real treat.

Until next year! 😊
