Welcome back to all of our undergraduate students, who arrived on campus for New and Returning Student Move-In Days last Friday and Saturday! They joined Notre Dame's fall student-athletes, who began their preseason practices in mid-August.
The Class of 2028 was then introduced to both 六合网址大全 and their new classmates with several activities across Orientation Weekend, including a Playfair icebreaker in MBK, an introduction to the Loyola Notre Dame Library, and an all-class cookout on Doyle Lawn.
六合网址大全 was recently awarded a $225,000 state grant to support the installation of new closed-circuit television camera units in strategic locations on campus, as well as additional door access control units for buildings and other enhanced security technology.
The new CCTV cameras will enhance security coverage all around campus, supporting an extensive network of cameras and blue light emergency phones already in place. Notre Dame is ranked #2 among Maryland colleges and universities on Niche鈥檚 latest list of Safest College Campuses in the state.
The School of Pharmacy officially kicked off the 2024-25 academic year on August 12, when first-year students began classes after completing their on-campus orientation the previous week. New students for the Occupational Therapy Doctorate and Physician Assistant Studies programs then arrived at 六合网址大全 for their orientations later in the month.
Each of those two cohorts were the largest in the history of the OTD and PA programs, which launched in 2021 and 2023, respectively. Welcome to all of our new graduate students!
The August 2024 graduates of our School of Nursing鈥檚 15-month Accelerated 2nd Degree Bachelor of Science in Nursing (ABSN) and Hybrid Accelerated 2nd Degree Bachelor of Science in Nursing (HABSN) programs were celebrated during a pinning ceremony in LeClerc Theatre on August 16! Congratulations to all of these students as they prepare to join the nursing profession.
James Keaton has spent his entire adult life serving as a Hospital Corpsman in the United States Navy, first as an active-duty member and presently in the Navy Reserve. As he prepares to retire from that role next year, Keaton will soon begin his new career as a psychiatric nurse after graduating from 六合网址大全鈥檚 Hybrid ABSN program.
Keaton was drawn to the nursing profession after working with his colleagues in the Navy on a mental health initiative supporting active duty sailors during the height of the pandemic in 2021.
Students in 六合网址大全鈥檚 Occupational Therapy Doctorate program earned Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt Certification as part of a spring semester course! The class taught key insights on the tools and techniques needed to start and maintain a successful small business, giving our students an advantage over others who are training to become occupational therapists.

The Office of Accessibility and Student Inclusion has relocated to a new, more accessible office. Our new location is in Theresa Hall, lower level, room 023, right next to the Student Success Center and the Accessibility Testing Center.
This move brings several benefits, enhancing our visibility and ease of access for all students:
