Joel Featured as First Young Professional
Joel Henderson, EMS Faculty, was the first Young Professional to be featured in the new weekly Chamber/Tribune Spotlight on Up-and-Comers.  
We found out a few new things about Joel from the article - we know that he likes to hunt, fish, spend time with his family, and workout and that he grew up in Great Falls. A great quote from Joel:  "Back in high school there were two things that I stated that I would never do. One was teach and the other one was go into the medical field. As it turned out I was wrong on both!" 
Student Art Exhibit
There is some great student art on display in the lounge areaStudent Art leading to the B-Wing. Here is a sample image, but you will want to take a look for yourself. Very nice work.
