Stay tuned for new information on Hopwood Underclassmen Awards Ceremony (rescheduled for weather)

Because of the UM closures on 1/30 and 1/31, we have had to postpone the previously-scheduled events on those days.

We look forward to celebrating the student winners of these fall awards — hopefully on a day when no one has to risk their safety to join in the excitement! — and we will be in touch in the near future to announce the rescheduling of this event.

Updates will be posted here, on our twitter/instagram pages, and on our upcoming events page.
