 "Family of the Year" named
ASU alumni, Margo and Mark AufderHeide of DeWitt, and their children were recognized at Saturday’s football game as the “2003 Family of the Year.” Two of their three children, Matthew AufderHeide and Katherine AufderHeide, are attending ASU. Margo and Mark are members of the Alumni Association, the Indian Club and the Wilson Fellows Fellowship Fund. Margo is a former Wilson Award Winner, and served on the Wilson Award selection committee this year.
"First Friday" from Dr. Wyatt
President Les Wyatt has started a series of monthly reports to the campus community entitled, “First Friday.” It is available on the web site at: http://asunews.astate.edu/firstfriday.htm. This month’s report focuses on the strategic planning process, and includes a link to the Higher Learning Commission report with the institutional responses inserted. Everyone at ASU should have received an e-mail about this last week.
