What a great night of great movies!
ππΏπ¬ππππ₯π₯οΈπ
Movies Under the Stars - OUBβs Digital Cinema Programβs showcase of films - has become the unofficial start of summer for fans, and this year 48 carloads of movie lovers pulled up to the Warwick Drive-In for the show.
With an impressive runtime of 1 hour and 45 minutes, an amazing audience, and spring weather that no visual effects supervisor could match, it was truly a perfect night. The camaraderie among the OUB's student cinematographers is really special, and the family, friends and faculty that came came out to see their work on the big screen made the event even more unforgettable.
A very special thank you to the Warwick Drive-In Theater for welcoming our students and creating such a memorable evening!

OUB staff traded their work shoes for sneakers and headed outside after work for our annual Heroes on the Run, a 5K-ish run/walk around the Amy Bull Crist Campus on Gibson Road! ππΊπΈ
Along the route, signs honored colleagues who have served, a reminder of the heroes right here at OUB.
Participants also donated items to the βUnited for the Troops Wish List,β raising a substantial stash of snacks and personal care items for our deployed troops. From chapstick and body lotion to Pop-Tarts and hot chocolate, we hope these donations bring a little comfort and a reminder that weβre thinking of our service members. β€οΈπ€π
And a special thank you to the OUB Wellness Committee for bringing everyone together for this great event!

Weβre so grateful for the more than 100 industry and community partners who joined us for our annual OUB Partnership Breakfast.
This very special event recognizes the vital role our partners play in supporting student success through clinical placements, internships, mentorships, and workplace learning experiences.
Thanks to them, this year OUB CTE students completed more than 45,000 hours through over 200 partnerships across Orange County. Every hour represents a future healthcare professional, technician, tradesperson, educator, or leader moving one step closer to their goal.
The morning included a beautiful breakfast prepared by OUB's skilled and talented Culinary Program students.
A special congratulations - and thank you - to our Advisory Board Member of the Year, Lauren Comizio of Healey Brothers Automotive Ford, and our Business Partner of the Year, Garnet Health Medical Center.
