Shenandoah’s Top Ten For 2024

Top 10 posts for 2024

2024 proved to be exciting at Shenandoah University.

The year saw the receipt of a $20 million gift (the university’s largest ever!), the opening and naming of the Hazel-Pruitt Armory, home of the Hub for Innovators, Veterans & Entrepreneurs (HIVE), and the dedication of the Wilkins Health & Fitness Suite in the Pruitt Health & Life Sciences Building. We celebrated as graduates not only took roles on Broadway, in national tours and in films and television shows, but also won awards for their research. 

But, this is just a taste of Shenandoah’s 2024. Check out our top videos, social posts, blogs and more to re-experience a fantastic year!
