Troy Romero, Ph.D., began his UNO journey as an undergraduate student in 1992. Today he is the Chair of the Goodrich Scholarship Program, the same program that helped him - and nearly 2,000 other students - earn a bachelor's degree.
The University of Nebraska at Omaha has been Troy Romero's home for nearly 40 years - in more ways than one.
This week, Romero, whose doctorate is in psychology, begins his tenure as chair of the Goodrich Scholarship Program. It's a role that he's seemingly been working towards his entire life, though he never would have thought so when he was a Goodrich Scholar, himself, in the early 1990s.
