Health sciences school named after late dean

By Staff Reports
The Register-Herald

The late Patsy Haslam was hired on at Mountain State University nearly 20 years ago, and from the beginning she made changes and developed a nursing program, along with numerous other medical-related programs, that helped transform the institution into a thriving center for higher learning.

In a private ceremony Friday, the MSU board of trustees permanently placed her name on the programs she established, nurtured and guided.

“Without Patsy Hesen Haslam’s steadfast support, the university might not have become the premier provider of allied health education programs in southern West Virginia and throughout the state that it is today,” MSU President Charles Polk said. “Now therefore be it resolved that the board of trustees of Mountain State University does hereby this day bestow the name Patsy Hesen Haslam upon the School of Health Sciences, hereinafter referred to as the Haslam School of Health Sciences in honor and appreciation for her outstanding support, generosity, commitment, dedication and contribution of time, talent and energy to the university and university community.”

Haslam died unexpectedly in July, just weeks after retiring as the university’s dean of health sciences.
