Change is in the air for the University of Delaware Physical Therapy Class of 2021. After two years of full-time classes - including navigating the COVID-19 pandemic - students have finished the didactic portion of the program and now step out into full-time clinical rotations this summer.
The transition was recently celebrated with the Second Year Send Off, where students were recognized and celebrated. For their part, students created their own thank you notes to faculty and staff for their hard work during this turbulent time.
The following students also were recognized with awards and scholarships:
Cathy Doetzer Kohlenstein Memorial Award: Lloyd Pierre
The Tupin Family Fund for Physical Therapy Award: Brittney Ploumitsakos
Patrick W. Stauffer ’98 Fellowship in Clinical Studies: Justin Burgess
