Associate Dean, Student Success/Curriculum Development On September 27, walkers from across the region will gather in North Myrtle Beach to raise funds and awareness for the fight against ALS — a cause close to the heart of former UNC Pembroke professor Dr. Tim Ritter. For a pair of pre-vet students at UNC Pembroke, this summer meant long days feeding animals, cleaning enclosures and preparing injured wildlife for release — thousands of miles from home. NASA recently recognized a UNC Pembroke computer science student for his exceptional cybersecurity skills.
Shirsendu Mondal received a formal letter of appreciation from the agency's Vulnerability Disclosure Program for identifying and responsibly reporting a security vulnerability in one of NASA's digital systems.Dean's Office
