Inaugural CPHS Excellence Awards Ceremony honors 20 individuals and groups

The College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences held the inaugural CPHS Excellence Awards on April 11 in Butler Chapel to recognize individuals and groups who have made significant contributions to promoting and enhancing CPHS, the University and surrounding community.

“The Office of Admissions and Student Affairs believes in recognizing the contributions and service of our faculty, staff and students,” said Dayna Harper, director of Student Affairs. “The CPHS Excellence Awards provided an opportunity to do just that and more.”

A committee of faculty and students from all CPHS programs convened to review more than 75 impressive nominations. Harper continued, “We understand how rigorous the programs are, so were highly impressed by the level of dedication to service our students and faculty have not only to CPHS, but also to the community.”

Twenty awards were presented at the ceremony including Student Ambassadors of the Year, Professors of the Year, leadership and more.
