The celebration began early for College of Pharmacy students who were honored for various achievements at an award ceremony on Friday, May 3. The fourth-year students celebrated “Commencement Eve” together at the event, before donning their caps and gowns at EJ Thomas Hall on Saturday.
Congratulations to the awardees, as well as all of the fourth-year pharmacy students who will be earning their Pharm.D.!
