CYAF profiles faculty research and work with students in series of videos

The Department of Children, Youth and Family Studies has produced a series of videos profiling CYAF faculty. According to Chair Rich Bischoff, the project was a recruiting strategy and a way to make the department's great work more visible. "I'm convinced that most of the best prepared doctoral students choose their doctoral programs because there is someone that they want to work with or study under," Bischoff said. The intent of the videos is to inspire students and steer them to UNL to study with specific faculty members.

Business minor is perfect supplement for Gangwish, nutrition major

Jena Gangwish originally came to the University of Nebraska-Lincoln to study pre-med and major in accounting so she could run her own medical practice. Then priorities changed and she decided that family aspirations were more suited to a path in a physician’s assistant graduate program. To prepare, she changed her major to nutrition through the College of Education and Human Sciences. However, she knew she still wanted business to remain a big part of her college education and also signed up for the business minor at the UNL College of Business Administration.
