ICYMI - HCE 2024 knocked it out of the park!! The best faculty and staff from our barbershop world contributed their time and talents to a weekend of learning, singing, and CONNECTION for all of our eager students. Evidence below.
Too many people to thank, so if you were a person who drove the “Bubers,” set up and took down risers, shopped, talked the deans off the ledge when necessary, or helped in ANY capacity over the last few months (and especially the last four days!), know that you are appreciated and loved. This is not an event that can happen without support.
