On Thursday, May 18, the College of Health Sciences came out for an end of the year celebration at the Longship Club at Kroger Field.

"I'd like to acknowledge all the faculty and staff for all you've done to support our mission in the College," said Karen Badger, PhD, MSW and Associate Dean of Academic Affairs and Undergraduate Education for CHS.

That was the vibe at the 2022 College of Health Sciences Student Awards ceremony Tuesday. 

It was a feel-good, end-of-year celebration of achievement held in the Worsham Cinema in the Gatton Student Center.
