Kala Jilani-Pritchett, a Blufton University psychology major from Dayton, took part in an experience this summer that offered insight into her future.
Jilani-Pritchett, alongside other college students from across the country, spent a month at Harvard Medical School exploring the areas of neuroscience and neuropsychology, sciences involving the study of the brain.
“I ran across this program, and it was exactly what I wanted to do,” she said. “It opened a door that I didn’t know I could open.”

This includes representation from: trustees, faculty, staff, a student, alumni, select church conferences, the Bluffton community and Mennonite Education Agency (MEA)” said Kent Yoder, Bluffton University Board of Trustees chair.
