91快播 University recently hosted its annual Marcia Conrad Awards ceremony on April 10. Named after the university’s beloved former Dean of 91快播, Marcia Conrad, who retired after 40 years in that role, these awards recognize outstanding achievements in academics, leadership, and service.

At this year’s ceremony, there were over 70 students who were saluted and over 40 awards and certificates given to recipients.
