Congratulations to Dr. Tibi on this incredible achievement and her continued contributions to literacy research and linguistic diversity!

Congratulations to SCOM alumna Lindsay Lovins on being named one of Tallahassee's Future 5 Honorees! 👏

Lovins is making a meaningful impact in the Tallahassee community through NewBridge Living, a supportive housing initiative helping individuals rebuild their lives after substance abuse, homelessness, and incarceration.
