Samantha Halime of Clawson, a M.A. in Counseling student, was named the Graduate Student Showcase People's Choice Award Winner for her display titled "Recoveropology Disordered Eating." She received a $250 prize.

“It was truly a pleasure to learn about the outstanding work our graduate students are doing in their programs,” said OU Graduate School Dean Brandy Randall. “The creativity and quality of the student's presentations are a testament to the excellent students and faculty at OU. We can't wait for next year! Thank you to the Oakland University Credit Union for sponsoring the prizes awarded in both of these annual events.”
