This was the students’ day, said Karen Badger, PhD, MSW and Vice Dean for the College of Health Sciences.

“This is your day to celebrate your success,” she said.

The scene was the 2024 College of Health Sciences Student Awards, where faculty, staff and friends packed the Karpf Auditorium Thursday to honor dozens of students for their academic success, service and research, among other outstanding qualities.

“You are the leaders, healers and innovators of tomorrow,” said Scott Lephart, PhD and Dean of the College. “I am grateful each of you chose the College of Health Sciences.”
