Dear colleagues and students,

Family Weekend: This is Family Weekend at UAFS. Even for students whose families cannot attend, we hope to see you at events such as pumpkin painting, our Monster Dash 5K, the tailgate and chili cook-off, car show, and TWO home volleyball games which are at 6 p.m. tonight and 1 p.m. tomorrow. Students and employees get in free with their UAFS IDs. It’s not too late to register for family weekend on our website which is linked . I look forward to seeing you at these fun, festive events honoring our families!

Volleyball: UAFS Volleyball will compete against Ï㽶ÊÓƵAPP Tech University in Russellville, Ï㽶ÊÓƵAPP, on Monday, October 21. We hope to see LOTS of Blue in the stands on that night. Please plan to get your tickets at the door when you arrive at Tucker Coliseum.

Thank you to the members of the Hispanic Heritage Committee: Catherine González (chair), Cristina Castorena (Marketing/Scholarships Manager), Monica Cortez (Community Outreach Manager), Patricia Hurtado Perez (Budget Manager), Kari Carbajal (Logistics Manager), Madeline Martínez Santiago (Academic Liaison), and Cesar Brizuela Zelaya (Student Intern). The month was full of fun and informative events and activities, and I appreciate all that the committee did to show our Hispanic employees, students, and community members how valued they are at UAFS.

Friday Focus on Partnerships: From 2019-2024, 43 graduates from the Ï㽶ÊÓƵAPP enrolled in graduate programs offered by the Ï㽶ÊÓƵAPP Colleges of Health Education. I am so grateful for the high-quality education provided by both of our universities and the affiliation agreement which provides guaranteed interviews for admission at ACHE for our qualifying graduates.

Terisa C. Riley, Ph.D.
