Last Saturday the Walk for Mobility was held on campus in an effort to raise money for making inexpensive wheelchairs in struggling countries. It was the second year that the event has been held and the second year that I have participated. It is fun to see Newman students, faculty, staff, and alumni gather together for such a great cause. This year several of my classmates from the Occupational Therapy Assistant program at Newman participated. It was a 5K walk/run around campus, with student volunteers scattered throughout the course giving directions and words of encouragement to the participants. It was a beautiful morning and I think that fun was had by all.

My name is Clare and I am a fifth-year senior at Newman University. I can’t believe that I have already been here for four whole years! The time has definitely flown by. My favorite memories range from building the biggest snowman on campus with my friends from Nepal one winter to winning the conference tournament with my soccer teammates another year. I have made some amazing friends and can’t wait to make more memories with them in my final year at Newman. Who knows what will happen this year!
