UNH Today

Reimagining the Game Plan

Given the ultimate outcome, perhaps it was oddly fitting that Fabian Lutz ’20G first received word that his UNH experience was about to look very different when he was already more than a thousand miles away from campus.

Lutz was in Miami for a spring break trip in March of 2020 – about a week before he planned to fully dive into the thesis work for his master’s degree in kinesiology – when the COVID-19 pandemic erupted, prompting the message he received announcing that UNH’s campus would be closed for the remainder of the semester as the university shifted to remote learning.

Twice as Nice

Sam Mercer ’23, a chemical engineering major at UNH, was named a finalist for a pair of prestigious fellowships to study in the United Kingdom.

Both the Marshall and Rhodes scholarships fund two full years of graduate study, while seeking young Americans with strong academics, demonstrated leadership ability and clarity of future goals. Mercer is the second UNH student in five years to become a finalist for both, joining Eden Suoth ’18.

Healthy Food for All

How does food and nutrition insecurity affect physical, mental and social well-being? How does it vary by race, ethnicity, gender and sexuality?

These are questions that researchers in the agriculture, nutrition, and food systems (ANFS) department at COLSA ask themselves daily, and they seek to find the answers through their research. Below, we’ve highlighted how the work of three ANFS professors serves and supports communities that are marginalized based on their race and ethnicity, socioeconomic status, sexuality and gender identity
