🕊️🎓 Happy Higher Education Day from PIMS! 🎓🕊️

Today we honor the unique and essential role higher education plays — including the specialized path of funeral service education. At our mortuary school, students don’t just learn technical skills; they learn how to serve families with compassion, dignity, and respect during life’s most difficult moments.

Choosing a career in funeral service is more than a profession — it’s a calling. We’re proud to educate future funeral directors, embalmers, and death care professionals who bring comfort, guidance, and humanity to their communities every day.

Here’s to the students, alumni, and faculty who make this mission possible. You are the heart of our profession. 💚

Today at PIMS, we had the pleasure of welcoming Schoedinger Funeral & Cremation Service! 🕊️

Randy Schoedinger visited our students to share valuable industry insights, offer professional guidance, and even conduct on-the-spot interviews. It was an incredible opportunity for our future funeral service professionals to network, learn, and take real steps toward their careers.

Our students came prepared—with resumes in hand and ambition in their hearts. Thank you, Schoedinger, for investing in the next generation of leaders in funeral service.

Student POV: join Madi on “Rescue Randy Day.” Each term, we set up several stations on campus for students to practice transfers. Bringing a loved one into the care of a funeral home is never easy - it always comes with challenges and we try to prepare our students for every one of them!
