The Campbell University College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences (CPHS) recognized faculty and staff members who were honored for their years of dedicated service during a recent University-wide celebration of employee milestones.

Hosted by the University and with the honor of President William M. Downs’ involvement, the event celebrated employees from across the institution who reached service anniversaries in increments of five years, beginning with five years of service. The annual recognition highlights the collective commitment of University employees while providing an opportunity to honor the meaningful contributions of CPHS faculty and staff.

Honorees were recognized during a special ceremony underscoring the significance of their service and the lasting impact they have made on students, colleagues and the broader campus community. The event offered a moment to reflect on their professional journeys and express appreciation for their continued dedication.

Within CPHS, these individuals represent a strong foundation of experience, mentorship and service. Their daily efforts support student success, enhance academic programs and contribute to an environment that fosters learning, collaboration and innovation in healthcare education.

The years of service recognized reflect more than longevity. They represent a sustained commitment to the mission of CPHS and to preparing future healthcare professionals. Whether working directly with students or supporting programs, each honoree plays an important role in advancing the College and strengthening its connection to the communities it serves.

The College extends its sincere appreciation to these faculty and staff members for their years of service and their continued dedication to supporting students, strengthening the campus community and advancing the mission of CPHS.
