🦋Mental health matters, and so do YOU!

This morning, IUFW students, faculty, and alumni came together with members of the PFW and Fort Wayne community for the You Matter 5K on campus. We walked in remembrance of those we have lost to su***de, in support of those who may be struggling, and to raise awareness for su***de prevention.

We are proud to be part of a campus community that encourages connection, conversation, and care. No one has to walk alone.

Follow You Matter 5K to learn more about the movement.

Follow Purdue Fort Wayne Wellbeing for information about services offered to our students and community.

Our first-year students are building strong foundations in Dental Technology, with hands-on learning in every course! They’ve learned about lab safety and infection control, poured plenty of stone models, and practiced controlling wax. Some of them are even working on their first custom impression trays and occlusal rims.

Dental Technology, Dental Assisting, and Dental Hygiene students came together for a team-building in-service on Thursday.

Students practiced time management and learned about the importance of communication and student success. They explored campus resources through a scavenger hunt, enjoyed pizza, and even participated in a rock-paper-scissors competition.

We look forward to a great semester and wish all our students success!

A special thank you to the following presenters:

Martha Marshall, Director of Student Success at IU School of Dentistry

Sydney Reynoso, Student Resources and Recruitment Specialist at IU School of Dentistry
