Seventeen alumni, students, and faculty in the Community Health and Prevention Sciences Public Health program gathered to share and learn from each other on November 17, 2023. New this year, the Fall Tea involved alumni sharing their professional successes, challenges and tips for students moving into the workforce and continuing their education. Students had the opportunity to ask questions and seek advice from program graduates. Attendees also shared and exchanged their favorite fall treats including homemade muffins, cookies, pies, crisps, and cakes.
