Another milestone unlocked, Coogs 🎓🚗 Last week, our seniors showed up and showed out for Senior Decal Drive-Thru at UH and the energy did not disappoint. From proud smiles to cars repping that Cougar spirit, it was all about celebrating how far they’ve come and what’s ahead.
The voices behind impact. Our volunteer leaders show up in so many ways & their words say it best. From why they give their time to what UH means to them, these stories reflect the heart behind the work.
Hear directly from the leaders who continue to shape the Cougar community.
Meet one of the many volunteer leaders making a difference at UH, Aylwin Lewis (’76, M.B.A. ’90).
