Richard M. Hickman, mayor of Angola, shared a message to welcome Trine University students:
The City of Angola is excited to welcome back all of our returning students as well as welcoming our new students to the campus of Trine University and the City of Angola. We wish you all well during this school year as you all enter into this new phase of your lives. Our community is excited that you are here and we want this to be a great experience for all of you. You are an important part of our community educationally as well as culturally. Please feel free to contact me any time you have questions or concerns about our community.
Life with COVID-19 is still new to all of us. You will face more than the normal challenges of University life with the virus still hanging over your heads. We encourage you to follow all of the medical directions and options that Trine University is making available to you. We want this to be a safe, healthy and enjoyable experience for all of you.
Again, we welcome you to the City of Angola. GO THUNDER!!!
Richard M. Hickman
Mayor, City of Angola
Two amputations haven’t stopped Ben Masten from working as a paramedic, but he still faces challenges every day. A team of Trine University biomedical engineering majors worked this spring to help him overcome one of them.
Trine University has named Eric Yoder, who most recently served as chief executive officer of the YMCA of Steuben County, as its new vice president for operations, beginning in June.
As we celebrate National Nurses Week, the nursing workforce is under pressure across the country. Staff shortages, high patient acuity and increasing complexity of care delivery are besetting our healthcare systems. Nursing education programs are being asked to provide graduates who will step directly into practice - faster, more efficiently and with the ability to cope at an increasingly fast pace with changing environments.
