Over 250 people filled the atrium area of the
Philip H. Ryan Health Science Center for the official
grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony.
Named in honor of Bay Path benefactor and trustee emerti Philip H.
Ryan, the 58,000 square-foot academic facility will be the new home for
the growing Master of Occupational Therapy and Master of Science in
Physician Assistant Studies programs. Despite the wintery cold, hundreds
of people were on hand to honor the generosity of a much-beloved and
respected man, Phil Ryan, and tour the state-of-the-art building that
bears his name. To take a video tour or watch a slide show of the event,
