The College of Public Health continues to see significant growth in fundraising, thanks to the generosity of alumni and other friends of the college.

Over the past two years, Class of 2022 Master of Public Health graduate Jimmy Nash — a first-generation college student — has spent his time at the College of Public Health honing his knowledge surrounding Black men's sexual health, and equipping himself with the tools to address health disparities pertaining to HIV and STI prevention and care.

Spring 2022 brings with it the hope that the worst of the pandemic is behind us. It is a time to think about the long-term ways that the lessons we’ve learned in the past two years can better inform our approaches to teaching, advocacy, research and our work within public health and health administration.

With the fervent support of alumni, staff, faculty and friends, the College of Public Health has its first college-wide endowed scholarship – a fund developed to honor a public health trailblazer and one that will provide opportunities for public health and health administration students long into the future.
