Reflecting on the College’s work, Dean Hans E. Butzer writes that, “The range of projects, from Blanchard, Oklahoma, to northern Uganda, is a testament to our students’ abilities and ambitions.” He continued, “It is also an indication of our faculty and staff team’s commitment to providing ideal and inspired learning environments for our students.”
