We’re also celebrating a new distinguished professorship at Candler School of Theology; introducing well-being coaches who have joined Campus Life; and sharing impressive figures related to research funding during fiscal year 2024. Plus, check out the variety of public art across campus. You might want to find them the next time you’re at Emory. Thanks for reading, — The Emory Report team |
