Thomas J. Loughrey (MA ’69, Ph.D ’74) traces the values that define his decades-long career back to Iowa City: attention to detail, integrity, and a deep commitment to public service. As a graduate student in the Department of Physical Education (now the Department of Health, Sport, and Human Physiology (HSHP)) in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, he found a collegial and rigorous environment that emphasized both evidence-based instruction and mentorship. “It was clear the standard was high in all aspects of coursework. The faculty at that time consisted of highly respected international scholars, and all were generous with their time,” Loughrey said.
