Fall is packed with classes, holidays and events
August is here and Touro University Nevada classes are in full swing with our new class of DO students having joined the other students who began their coursework in July. This time of year is among my favorite when the campus is alive and busy.
This summer we also received our official accreditation re-affirmation and team report from the Western Association of Colleges and Schools (WASC). This process was very positive and genuinely involved the faculty, staff and students. I want to thank Dr. Robyn Nelson, our university accreditation liaison officer, and the members of the team, Dr. Kriz, Dr. Mills, Dr. Troll, Dr. Grove, and Dr. Thiessen.
In September, TUN will be closed a number of days in observance of Labor Day, Rosh Hashana, Yom Kippur and Sukkot. Be sure to check our calendar for campus closures during September.
October will be an exciting month as we will be holding our White Coat ceremony for new students in the Physical Therapy, Physician Assistant Studies and Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine programs.
If you are interested in learning more about the White Coat ceremony or Touro University Nevada, please contact our External Relations department at 702-777-4795.
Warm regards,
Michael Harter, PhD
Senior Provost and CEO
