Yesterday, our grad students joined me to represent the Graduate School at the 32nd Genesis Women's Shelter & Support Annual Luncheon. This is always an inspiring event focused on hope, healing, and the ongoing work to end domestic violence. We also had the honor of hearing from keynote speaker Kristin Chenoweth, who shared a heartfelt message about resilience and advocacy.

It was an opportunity to be present, learn, and support an organization making a powerful impact in our community. We’re proud of our students for showing up with purpose and representing the heart of our graduate community.
