Photos of Past Events

Bottom Three Photos: IMIG hosted Heart Month in February in a national effort to raise awareness about risk factors for heart disease, prevention, and how it may manifest differently in women compared to men. The first Friday of the month, student wore red, shared a heart-healthy goal for the month, and received a free RVU Heart Month sticker designed by Student Doctor Mallory Thompson.
