Ice Cream Social 2024

Over 150 faculty, students, researchers, and staff attended the department’s Ice Cream Social on Friday, August 9, in the Court of Sciences outside Young Hall.

The Paradise Fine Cookies and Ice Cream Truck offered a wide variety of treats, including vegan options, ice cream floats, and freshly baked cookies.

The combination of delicious ice cream truck treats and great company made it a perfect day for everyone who attended. Thanks to all who joined in the fun!
