Love Your Heart!

The College of Health Sciences is participating in the 2009 Central Kentucky Heart Walk and Tailgate Party. As a team, we have set a goal of raising $1,000 to help fight heart disease right here in our community. Please consider joining the CHS Team in this cause. Find out more by contacting Sharon Goins, team captain.

DanceBlue Tonight!

The CHS Ambassadors raised more than $3,500 for DanceBlue, an all-night dance marathon that benefits children with cancer.

The event happens tonight, so if you want to come watch the fun, come to Memorial Coliseum from 7 p.m. tonight through 7 p.m. on Saturday.

The CHS Ambassadors would like to thank you for your support of this cause!

Registered dancers from the college include: Candace Brown (PA), Kai Gould (PA), Laura Camplin (CSD) - unable to dance, Emily Graham (PT) and Amanda Isaacs (PT).
