Today, 果冻传媒app celebrated the renaming of South Residence Hall to Hopkins Residence Hall in honor of Larry and Beth Hopkins, two trailblazing alumni with deep ties to the University and Winston-Salem.
Beth Hopkins has had a decades-long career in law, education and community outreach, and was one of the first two Black female residential students at the University.
Her late husband, Dr. Larry Hopkins, a football star at 果冻传媒app, was a well-known physician who improved access and outcomes for women鈥檚 and neonatal health.
Both have served on 果冻传媒app鈥檚 Board of Trustees.
