CTAHR undergraduates described their student life experiences during a live webinar for newly admitted prospective students and a student-faculty luncheon featured speed networking and idea sharing for first-year and transfer students.

The ASAO recently hosted its second CTAHR Student–Faculty luncheon, where freshmen and transfer students had the opportunity to meet and chat with faculty and the dean and associate deans. It started off with a speed networking session, in which the faculty and leadership spent five minutes introducing themselves to small groups of students.
