The best is yet to come for these Jayhawks!

🎉We kicked off graduation week strong with the Alpha Eta Society Kappa Upsilon Chapter 2026 Induction Ceremony. Founded in 1975, the purpose of the society is the promotion and recognition of significant scholarship, leadership and contributions to the allied health professions. The society was named for the Greek letters equivalent to the first letters of “Allied Health.”
 
🟩At the Induction Ceremony, inductees were presented with official certificates, as well as tassels and pins to be worn with their graduation regalia.
 
🏅Congratulations to the 2026 faculty and student inductees from the PTRSAT department!
