Hi all, Happy January! Hope you had a great month of December! This month
and the highlight of year our 2017 VBSN class graduated Dec. 16.
CONGRATULATIONS 2017 VBSN students, we are all so very proud of each
one you and wishing you the best moving forward. Sarah Innis and Ashley Forti
from the School of Pharmacy and I attended the Education Fair at Ft. Hood in
Killeen, TX Dec. 7. TTUHSC – President’s Veterans Advisory Board met Dec. 8
and three of our VBSN Alumni came to share their stories and journey through
the VBSN track. TTUHSC students, faculty, and staff provided 88 toys to the
U.S. Marine Corps Reserve’s Toys for Tots campaign this year, donations were
picked up in the President’s office Dec. 13. A special thank you to Sara Henly for
working with Toys for Tots to make TTUHSC Lubbock campus a donation
location. Also, on Dec. 16 Team RWB Lubbock laid wreaths on veteran
tombstones for the “Wreaths Across America” event at the Lubbock Cemetery.

This month the 2018 VBSN students will be testing Jan. 3-5 for the
Comprehensive Assessment Placement (CAP) courses. First day of classes and
semester 1 (spring) will begin Jan. 9.
