Check Out Impact Magazine's NEW Digital Format
We're pleased to introduce the latest issue of Impact Magazine, and its new digital format.

You’ll read President Paul LeBlanc’s reflections on 20 years of service and meet the remarkable recipients of the 2023 Alumni Awards and Athletic Hall of Fame honorees. We hope these stories inspire you and reinforce the pride you feel as a member of the SNHU community.
