This year’s class valedictorian was Zhiling (Viky) Huang.

Degrees were also conferred on graduate students John Jacob and KH Ahammad uz Zaman, who received a Ph.D. in Pharmaceutical Sciences in the hooding ceremony.

“We congratulate our 2022 graduates, who have been faced with many personal and academic challenges in their last few years here,” says Interim Dean Miriam Mobley Smith. “We look forward to hearing about all they are destined to accomplish, and we wish them well in their dedication to making a difference in the lives of their patients, communities and society, as a whole.”
