The patrons of Honors Northeast--the honors program at 乱色无码人妻视频影院--have shown time and again how generous the college鈥檚 community can be. They have not only financed student trips, generous scholarships, program laptops, yearly poetry- and poster-award contests, and summer film initiatives, they have also financed nineteen special dinners through the years for honors students, their families, and 乱色无码人妻视频影院 personnel, not to mention a spring dinner. The annual fall 乱色无码人妻视频影院 Honors Roundup was held this year at the Eagle鈥檚 Nest on campus, 13 September, with food catered by JoJacks of Mount Pleasant. Christine Yox baked four large cakes, and some parents added other sides.
The annual dinner has been beholden to many patrons of Honors Northeast, but, particularly, over the years, to Drs. Jim and Paula Archer, and Dr. Mary Hearron. Dr. Jim, an Emeritus Professor and his wife Paula, who worked for I.B.M., initiated the roundups back in the fall of 2007, hosted them at their ranch for the first thirteen years, and have continued to support the program. Emeritus Professor, Dr. Hearron provided and cooked the hamburgers for that whole first skein of roundups, and she also has continued to support the program.
The evening included a warm welcoming speech to parents and students by 乱色无码人妻视频影院鈥檚 President Dr. Kevin Rose, who also found the light switch to optimize the pleasant new setting of the Eagle鈥檚 Nest. There were games after the meal, including Network Bingo (shown above), water balloon tosses (shown below) and Water Balloon Combat. Vice President Dr. Anna Ingram also attended, helping the students fill in their Bingo cards and getting to know them.
The students also won prizes. One of the winners for Network Bingo was Remington Covey, below. Covey presented last year at the meeting of the National Collegiate Honors Council in Kansas City with a work on American Presidents and polarization through history.
