Dr. Mark Boas Named 2023 Named Albert Fitch Memorial Award Winner at PCO/Salus

During his second year at the Pennsylvania College of Optometry (PCO) in the 1980s, Mark Boas, OD ‘86, was elected class president. He would go on to be class president his third and fourth years as well, and after graduating from PCO, would continue to serve as Alumni Association president (1995-1999), faculty member (2001-2020) and on the Board of Trustees for many years.

He married one of his classmates, Suzanne (Helms) Boas, OD ‘86, and two of the couple’s children, Marie (Boas) Gwinn, OD ‘17, and Katherine Boas, OD ‘19, would follow in their parents’ footsteps and also graduate from PCO at Salus University.

Dr. Boas and his family have had a long and mutually respected relationship with the University for two generations. And, that longtime dedication has yielded another laurel for Dr. Boas as he has been named the 2023 Albert Fitch Memorial Alumnus of the Year.
