2022 HKN President Jim Conrad traveled to Virginia to install the chapter and welcome 10 students and 1 professional member on April 8th, 2024, which was the same day as the solar eclipse. The inducted members had also petitioned this chapter to become established in the fall semester of 2023. We look forward to growing the HKN community across ‘Our Home by the Sea’ in the upcoming years.
