The university will hold a breakfast from 8-10 a.m. Thursday, July 8, in the Brotherton Boardroom on the third floor of the Meen Center. Representatives of the Offices of Admission and Financial Aid will join other Tusculum family members to present information about the abundant undergraduate and graduate programs the university offers through corporate partnerships. Dr. Scott Hummel, Tusculum’s president, will also be present to speak and greet attendees.
