Department Holds Freshman Picnic

Dr. Alexander, the new Chair of HPJ, continued the tradition begun under former Chair Dr. Ellen Wilson and invited our Freshmen students to his house for a cookout.  Although students and faculty huddled in groups at the beginning, the ice soon broke and everyone started getting to know one another.

This annual picnic is a good way for students and faculty to learn each other's names and get to know the people that will be working together for the next four years.  Also, the food was, of course, excellent, including the smores!
