Dr. Susan Hannam Endowed Scholarship

Dr. Hannam began her career at SRU in 1987 as a faculty member for the Athletic Training Program. In this role she not only taught classes in the program, but also served as Head Athletic Trainer for Rock Football – the first female to serve as a football head trainer in the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC). As co-director, the Athletic Training Program was one of the first 11 programs in the country to be granted accreditation in 1994. In 2001 Dr. Hannam was elected Chairperson of the newly formed Department of Exercise and Rehabilitative Sciences. Under her direction, both the Exercise Science and Athletic Training programs grew in both reputation and enrollment. Dr. Hannam became Dean of the College of Health, Environment and Science in 2005.
