Happy belated birthday to our administrative assistant, Maggie Castillo! We couldn't celebrate Maggie properly on her birthday yesterday, but we will today. Thank you for all you do to support our department and students!
In the final pages of the year, UTRGV Pulse Magazine came alive through the hands of its hardworking students. "Corazón de Melón" became more than a theme. It became a lens for roots, culture and nostalgia, woven into stories that feel both personal and timeless.
Here is a look back at some of the faces behind it, where it all first took shape.
