An unforgettable evening with our NSU alumni and their families came together for a special baby sea turtle release in support of NSU’s sea turtle conservation efforts. Guests had the opportunity to learn more about sea turtle conservation and the important work being done to protect our local marine environment before experiencing the release of baby sea turtles into the ocean.

The evening offered Shark families a meaningful way to connect with NSU while supporting a program making an impact in our community. The highlight of the night? Watching these tiny sea turtles make their way into the ocean and begin their incredible journey. 🐢🌊

Thank you to all who joined us for this special experience and helped make the evening so memorable!

🌿 A garden rooted in NSU history and healing.
During a recent conversation with NSU alumnus Dr. Quan Pho, Pharm.D. ’02, we learned more about his connection to the creation of NSU’s Medicinal and Healing Garden.

As a student in the first Pharm.D. class at NSU’s Davie campus, Dr. Pho worked closely with the garden’s curator, David McLean, and helped bring the vision for this unique space to life. Dr. Pho also contributed to the educational mission of the garden by giving lectures on medicinal plants and highlighting their historical use in healing practices, helping connect pharmacy education with the natural origins of many therapeutic compounds.

Today, the Medicinal and Healing Garden continues to be a special part of our NSU community by providing a space for education, reflection, and healing. Hearing Dr. Pho share his memories reminded us of the lasting impact our alumni have had in shaping the NSU experience. 🌱

A special thank you to Carsten Evans, Ph.D., for giving our team a tour of the garden and sharing more about this space and reinforcing its continued impact.
We are proud to celebrate the alumni who helped shape NSU’s history and the spaces that continue to tell their stories. 🦈💙

🌊 Throwback Thursday!

This past April, members of our President's Associates joined President Harry K. Moon at the Guy Harvey Oceanographic Center to celebrate Earth Month and explore NSU’s meaningful impact on ocean conservation and research.

Guests heard from NSU's Halmos College of Arts & Sciences Dean Robin Cooper, Ph.D., and NSU coral researchers before getting a hands-on look inside our coral growing lab. 🪸 From learning about leading-edge ocean research to seeing coral restoration efforts up close, it was an unforgettable experience beneath the surface of NSU innovation!

The evening also featured incredible entertainment from Jake on the Lake and live artwork by Cherished Rain - Live Event Painting making the celebration even more memorable. 🎶🎨

Thank you to everyone who joined us for this special Earth Month event!
