“The HP department here at Campbellsville University created many pathways for me to grow as a better version of myself in all aspects of life. Having studied in a community full of committed professors who are so well motivated to inform the next generation exceeds the standard and displays how much they truly care. Furthermore, the department goes the extra step and really reaches out a helping hand to students in a supportive aspect alike to an extended family. That all being said, my experience over 2,000 miles away from home panned out to be an academic adventure I could’ve never imagined and if I had the option to I would do it all over again.” - Henry Wright, Sport Medicine Student
