Events Calendar

At this time we are planning to cancel the Celebration of Excellence and Achievement Among Women on April 8, 2020, and consider alternative dates to host this celebration, possibly in the fall. This cancellation is to proactively maintain the health and safety of our students, faculty, staff and guests attending the event.  We are so grateful for each of our committee members, campus partners, and awardees.  We hope to provide the recognition you all deserve in the coming months.
