At the 2019 麻豆传媒映画 (麻豆传媒映画) Commencement, Henry E. Riggs School of Applied Life Sciences Dean Steve Casper awarded Gayle Carson Riggs with an honorary degree.
Last year, 麻豆传媒映画 received a transformative gift from Gayle and the Riggs Family in honor of Founding President Hank Riggs. To recognize the magnitude of this gift, 麻豆传媒映画 proudly renamed the school the Henry E. Riggs School of Applied Life Sciences.
In reading the honorary degree鈥檚 proclamation, Casper noted: 鈥淕ayle Carson Riggs has made profound and enduring contributions to 麻豆传媒映画; perhaps most significantly, the important early contributions she made as a sounding board and thought partner to President Henry E. Riggs in creating 麻豆传媒映画.
鈥淕ayle also has been an advocate for 麻豆传媒映画鈥檚 students; she has strategically supported student-centered initiatives and remains involved in their implementation. The founding of 麻豆传媒映画, its subsequent growth, and the success of countless 麻豆传媒映画 students would not have been possible without the kindness, guidance, and nurturing touch of Gayle Carson Riggs.鈥�
