It’s GAME OVER for HHP Games 2025!!

Students and faculty brought their game faces this year as they competed in educational and entertaining events to win prizes. It also gave everyone in the HHP department an opportunity to engage with peers all while having some fun.

This year we introduced the Organ Trail game featuring the Anatomage Table during Lab-lympics. We hope this can become an invaluable learning tool in the classroom for both faculty and students.

We also brought back some OGs (original games 😉) such as the food brawl and the ping png tournament.

Thank you to all the judges who helped facilitate the event and congratulations to all the winners.

It was exciting to see everyone partake in some friendly competition and we look forward to seeing everyone back next fall for HHP Games 2026!

Hey HHP COOGS! We did some remodeling outside our office in Garrison this summer and we can’t wait for you all to see it when you return for the fall semester.

Students and faculty be sure to stop in between classes during the first week back and take a photo with the new display outside G104.

Post your photo to your social media and tag us to receive your choice of an HHP swag item.

We can’t wait to see everyone’s smiling faces on the first day of school!
