Independent College Advancement Associates (ICAA) recently recognized ONU with a series of awards.
Dave Smittle, a 1984 ONU graduate, was awarded the inaugural Dave Smittle Service Award. The award was established in honor and recognition of his 22 years of service to ICAA.
The Ernest Sheetz Mentor Award went to April Novotny, a 1996 ONU graduate, who is assistant vice president for development at Capital University.
ONU’s “What's New at ONU?” alumni receptions were recognized as the ICAA 2017 Program of Excellence.
The Law College recently dedicated the Judge Allan H. Davis Lecture Hall. Davis, a 1968 law graduate, recently retired from the Hancock County Court of Common Pleas, where he served 40 years as a probate and juvenile court judge.
His gift funded a complete renovation of Room 125, one of three original lecture halls in the building.

Mrs. Gossard, first grade teacher, had her students tell a little about themselves as school got underway. You can see for yourself why they are special. (There's a lot of handstands in this class!)
For example:
• I can do a handstand while swimming
• I can draw people
• I can climb trees
• I collect LOL dolls
• I can sing
• I can do a handstand
