Through health care simulations, the participants received instruction in suture/staple removal, basic EKG interpretation and emergency resuscitation. Through science labs, they performed DNA extraction and anatomy dissections. Students also earned their Stop the Bleed® certification, which was presented to them by Dr. Laci Sutton, dean of HPU’s School of Nursing, professor of nursing and co-director of HSEW.

HPU’s School of Nursing and School of Science and Mathematics organized the event. Along with Dr. Sutton, the program was co-led by Dr. Kristen Hutchins. She is the dean of the School of Science and Mathematics, professor of biology and JAMP faculty director at HPU.

“Dr. Sutton and I are excited to work together in supporting high school students interested in a healthcare profession,” said Dr. Hutchins. “This workshop provided excellent opportunities for them to expand their knowledge and skills on the HPU campus and spend time in a healthcare field of their interest.”

An important aspect of HSEW was the opportunity for students to shadow and network with healthcare professionals at Hendrick Medical Center Brownwood, which gave them exposure to a variety of career paths.

“Hendrick Health was a significant partner in making the first annual Health Science Enrichment Workshop a success,” said Dr. Sutton. “We are thankful for the partnership with Hendrick Health in supporting students during their educational journey.”

Dr. Sutton and Dr. Hutchins are eager to organize HSEW for summer 2024.

Cutlines: HPU’s Packer Administration Building is one of the campus facilities that will be available to students on Saturday, August 19.

The post Selected HPU offices to open Saturday, August 19, to serve students preparing for fall semester appeared first on Howard Payne University.

“This $1 million gift is an expression not only of the Mabee Foundation’s extraordinary generosity but also the founders’ vision for helping those in need,” said Dr. Cory Hines, HPU president. “HPU students will benefit from the impact of this gift for generations to come.”

Scholarship awards of $10,000 each will be made annually to at least four students who are enrolled full time, reside in Texas or one of several surrounding states, and maintain a 3.0 GPA. HPU’s administrative leadership team will make the selections each year. Students can apply through the university’s Office of Financial Aid.

Dr. Dale Meinecke, HPU’s vice president for advancement, said the gift will serve as an ongoing extension of the Mabees’ commitment to serving others.

“It is amazing to me that John and Lottie Mabee’s vision from years ago to bless others will result in perpetuity HPU students receiving an outstanding Christian education and developing into servant-leaders who we hope like the Mabees give back to their communities,” he said.

Howard Payne University and the Mabee Foundation have partnered together through the decades on projects such as HPU’s Mabee University Center, several campus improvement projects through the years and, most recently, the renovation of the Douglas MacArthur Academy of Freedom building. The gift for scholarships celebrates 75 years of philanthropic work by the Mabee Foundation in Texas and surrounding areas. Since 1948, the Mabee Foundation has given over $1.5 billion for philanthropic work toward bettering communities in areas such as education, health and religion.

“John and Lottie Mabee cared about giving people a ‘leg up’ to help them improve their situation and better their lives,” said Michael Goeke, executive director of the Mabee Foundation. “They also were valued and principled people. HPU represents the values of John and Lottie Mabee and we believe this scholarship fund will help many HPU students gain valuable experiences and knowledge that will lead them to live full, successful and purposeful lives.”

Applications for admission to HPU are still being accepted for the fall 2023 semester, scheduled to begin Aug. 21. To apply, visit www.hputx.edu/apply.

The center will be strategically positioned to direct the university’s efforts in areas such as academic advising, tutoring, dual enrollment and accommodations to students with disabilities while, through the newly created University Writing Center, helping students develop their writing skills across all courses.

The Center for Student Success, based in HPU’s Walker Memorial Library, will be led by Dr. Wendy McNeeley, assistant vice president for academic success. Dr. McNeeley’s 29 years of leadership at HPU includes experience as a faculty member and in roles such as director of developmental studies, dean of advising and general education and, since 2017, assistant vice president for university records and dean of general education.
