Join me in congratulating recent alum Jessica Mullins, who was just named one of twelve players nationally on the Arthur Ashe Softball team, an honor given to athletes of color with especially distinguished academic and athletic careers. Jess is the only student-athlete, male or female, from the Northwest Conference to be named to any of the 26 teams. She was an intern in Lewis & Clark’s Office of Multicultural Affairs. Kudos to her professors, coaches, mentors, and most especially to Jess herself!
It is my pleasure to announce that Kaitlyn “Fred” Demien ’11 won a Fund for Theological Education “Undergraduates Exploring Ministry Fellowship,” which provides funds for participation in the 2010 Conference on Excellence in Ministry at Boston University, June 16-20, 2010.
Peace,
Julio
