President's Highlights - December 2023

Celebrating a successful year

This month, more than 4,400 Miners, Roos, Tigers and Tritons received degrees during December commencement ceremonies. Congratulations, graduates! Looking ahead, 2024 will be another historic year for the èßäappSystem. Plans are already in place for promising research and engagement, including the inaugural PATHWAYS Symposium on March 22. Hosted by the NextGen Precision Health initiative, this event will build new collaborations between students, faculty and staff across our campuses. By coming together, we can reshape the future of health care in èßäapp and beyond. I hope you all have a safe, restful holiday season, and I look forward to celebrating excellence across the system in the new year.
