"A part of our vision is to reach out to other departments and tie the student health care community together for common goals. After all, no health-related organization runs on nurses, occupational therapists, or administrators alone to make the communities we serve healthier, we're all in this together."

Will Chinn, Chair of HASPS
BA in Political Science, Wittenberg

"What intrigued me about HASPS is the opportunity to create a place where students can dialogue with other students and professionals. I believe that one of the keys to a successful career is the ability to communicate effectively and to have as many channels of communication as possible."

Nate Diller, Vice Chair of HASPS
BA and BS in Biology and Sociology, University of Cincinnati
