Congratulations to the new @kuhgso board!! It has been a great pleasure to serve on the board for the past two years and I am confident that my fellow board members and I are leaving HGSO in good hands. I look forward to the great things the new administration will accomplish!

Congratulations to the newly minted Dr. Sarah Bell who successfully defended her dissertation yesterday!
