[bs_col class=”col-sm-8″]Come join us for the 10th annual Susan Sandoval Memorial 5K for Ovarian Cancer Awareness! The event is held annually at Sugar House Park, and this year will be held on Saturday Sept. 10 from 8 a.m.-10 a.m. The event began in 2007 in memory of Susan Sandoval, a nurse at LDS and Primary Children’s hospitals, who battled ovarian cancer. Many event participants have been touched by ovarian cancer in some way, whether they come to honor the memory of a lost loved one, support survivors, and/or come out to support the cause. Participation in the race not only honors Susan Sandoval’s memory, but also the struggles of all who have been touched by gynecologic cancer.
The event is sponsored by the University of Utah Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the funds go to the Ovarian Cancer Research, Awareness, and Education Fund.

[bs_col class=”col-sm-8″]Prospective students invited to special campus tour designed to showcase campus while catching Pokémon
The Office of Admissions at the University of Utah is excited to announce an all-new campus tour experience for prospective students: The Pokémon Go Campus Tour at the University of Utah.
Pokémon Go has changed the way people interact with technology and has helped people discover new places and meet new people, and the University of Utah has become a popular area in Utah to “catch ’em all.”
“We’re excited to find an opportunity to connect prospective students to campus and take the general, everyday campus tour and offer something incredibly unique,” said Scott Kirkessner, assistant director of Admissions at the U, who oversees campus experience. “So far, we’re among the first few universities to offer this as a visit option, and we think a lot more will follow suit.”
Prospective students are invited to participate in a Pokémon Go campus tour on Aug. 4 and 11 at 5 p.m. Participants will tour campus and hunt the Pokémon that roam the University of Utah. The events are free, but space is limited. Register today to reserve a spot. Click below to register.
