Parents and Families - June 7, 2023

Greetings from Winthrop!

I am happy to share with you the summer edition of the Winthrop Magazine. As usual, the magazine is packed with articles on our wonderful programs, students, alumni, faculty and staff.  

Please take a few minutes to peruse this edition, which includes:

  • The fascinating research displayed at the Showcase of Undergraduate Research and Creative Endeavors. I attended this event and was blown away at the level of research our students and faculty members are conducting;

  • A field study by biology faculty and students who are tracking Eastern Box Turtles in nearby Chesterfield County thanks to a Carolina Wildlands Foundation grant;

  • Our esports program's recent championship and new state-of-the-art home;

  • Compelling profiles on alumni Fabian Broich '16,  who is providing esports consulting to the Olympics this summer, and the Honorable DeAndrea Gist Benjamin '94, who has joined the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit; as well as

  • The latest campus happenings, alumni news and university advancement updates.

Thank you for choosing Winthrop as the place for your student to call their home.
