ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ Trustee Kerrii Brown Anderson '79 has declared The IGNITE Challenge "a big success." In a new video message, she thanks young alumni for answering her challenge to make gifts to ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ during February.

Pamela M. Kiser, Watts-Thompson Professor in the Department of Human Service Studies and interim dean of ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ College, the College of Arts and Sciences, has been named ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ’s fourth Distinguished University Professor.

Kerrii Brown Anderson ’79, former chief executive officer of Wendys International, shared lessons from her storied career as the Martha and Spencer Love School of Business’ annual Legends of Business speaker on March 4.

Ali Ford of the Phoenix women’s basketball team was named the Southern Conference Freshman of the Year by both the Southern Conference Sports Media Association and the 11 head coaches. Ford became the second straight ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ player to receive the award, after Tiara Gause picked up the honor last season. Ford was also the only underclassman named to the coaches’ All-Southern Conference team.
