Spotlights

Sargent College debuts industry collaboration opportunities

Shannon Nagle and Sami Rickheim are students at Sargent College, studying human physiology under the supervision of BU faculty and two mentors from the New Balance team. Though the details of their work are confidential, they were happy to talk about their experiences at New Balance, and their respective journeys to BU’s human physiology program, which has allowed them to blend industry innovation with academia.

Head Coach Tara Watchorn reflects on Sargent College and her path to success

Coach Tara Watchorn (Sargent College, Health Sciences ‘12), the head coach of the BU women’s hockey team,  is everything you would expect a head coach to be: confident, focused, supportive, and efficient. Her accomplishments speak for themselves: among many other things, she was the first alumna of the BU women’s hockey program to serve as a Division I hockey coach, an Olympic gold medalist at the 2014 Winter Olympic Games, and had a truly extraordinary playing career, playing for BU, Team Canada, and more.
