Members of ǿ޴ý’s Online Admissions team and a Ben Lippen School student visited 18 Columbia area first responder locations, thanking them for their service with Krispy Kreme doughnuts and greeting cards.


Director of Graduate and Online Recruitment, Scott Boyer, says the police officers and firefighters they met were genuinely grateful for the small token of appreciation, and asked if they could pose for photos with the team. They also noted that they have been blessed by the support they have received from the greater Columbia community.
