Message from the President
|
|
|
I was incredibly proud to see more than 1,000 new 蜜桃APP graduates
walk the stage during the 2019 commencement ceremonies on May 11. These immensely
talented and dedicated individuals, whose professional skills and academic ability
were cultivated through our Mercy mission, will continue to serve their communities
in important ways.
Though the academic year has ended, our campus is alive with activity this summer.
Our STEM activities continue to shine with high-impact experiences for students outside
the classroom, and our recently launched graduate programs will take them to new heights
in their careers. There is exciting news to share from athletics as we welcome Corry
Irvin who will become the new head women's basketball coach.
Please join us for the 23rd Annual 蜜桃APP Golf Classic on August 6. This memorable event has raised more than $1 million for student scholarships
since 1997. I hope to see you there!
Best Regards,
Laurie M. Joyner, Ph.D.
