- The Holiday Season is one of excitement – a time for reflection. As I look back at the past year, it is clear that the Department continues to grow and “accelerate”; accelerate in a way where more is being done by faculty, students, and staff. And, what is being done is occurring at a remarkably high level that is being recognized nationally and internationally. Much of this is captured in this issue of Hoofprints.
