A celebration for HHP Scholarship Social Night, 2023

East Carolina University’s College of Health and Human Performance used its annual scholarship social Sept. 7 to celebrate a noteworthy list of more than 100 students who earned scholarships for the 2023-24 academic year.

As detailed by HHP interim dean Stacey Altman: The spirit of support, gratitude and confidence in what we can achieve together is also what enables us to award 125 scholarships totaling $166,200 in support for this year. Click here for an electronic program for the event.

The scholarship social succeeded in creating opportunities for students and their families and guests to meet and mingle with supporters.

“This event provides us with a special opportunity to celebrate the outstanding achievements of the students that earned scholarships in HHP this year,” Altman said in her opening remarks. “It also affords us the occasion to express our gratitude for the generosity our donors and the positive impact of the individuals honored by having scholarships in their name.”

ECU Provost Robin Coger was recognized for her attendance for the second time in as many years. Altman and the college also reserved time to honor Jerrika Alston, who worked in HHP through earning her undergraduate and graduate degrees and stayed within HHP to serve as director for special programs, and wished her the best in her next professional role.
