Favorite HPU Memory: In the Spring of 2022, I accompanied Drs. Allen and Fink and some of our amazing students to the opera in Charlotte.  We saw Aida, which was lavishly staged and beautifully performed.  The opera itself was unforgettable, but time away from campus with our enthusiastic and gracious students was even better! Advice for HPU History Students: Give yourself permission to be inspired by things that may be outside your comfort zone!
