In May, we hosted the Dissertation Showcase at Union Square. Our graduating students shared the key takeaways from the dissertation work through their visual abstracts and a short presentation in one of four categories (education and coaching, college populations, special populations, and physical activity impacts). This led to some great conversations with attendees. It was wonderful to hear how the students’ dissertation work is making an impact.

We celebrated the accomplishments of the group and their upcoming graduation at Oden’s Brewery. Family and friends joined the festivities for an evening of smiles and laughter.

We had 20 students graduate with their Doctor of Education in Kinesiology (listed below). In addition, three of our graduate assistants earned their master’s degrees. Maggie Best graduated with her Masters in Kinesiology with a concentration in Sports Medicine. Agustin Saldana graduated with his Masters in Kinesiology with a concentration in Exercise Physiology. Jane Bodinger graduated with her Masters in Sport and Exercise Psychology. We are super thankful for their hard work and will miss them! Congratulations to all our graduates!!!
