Alumni, Faculty Help Pave the Way for Future Generations
T
here are many ways Salus students become successful, including hard work, determination, love for their professions and dedication to their
patients and clients. But an important part of the equation is help from those who paved the way, the alumni and faculty at the University who want to see future generations succeed. And, to that end, it’s the perfect opportunity for them to provide scholarships and other financial support to give Salus students an advantage when they enter the professional world. These are some individuals who have generously chosen to support Salus University with contributions to future generations of students:
