Ohio Northern University student Anthony Ginella, a senior pharmaceutical business major from Canal Fulton, Ohio, was awarded the Order of the Sphinx at the Delta Sigma Phi National convention in New Orleans in July.
Ginella, president of the Alpha Eta chapter of Delta Sigma Phi at ONU, was recognized for his outstanding contributions to Ohio Northern University, his chapter and the fraternity. The award is given annually to undergraduates nominated by their chapter or national officer for their efforts throughout the year. Ginella was an initiate of the Delta Sigma Pi fraternity in 2012.
Ada’s preschool with that name is ready for the 2015-16 school year, which starts Monday, Aug. 31. The school year runs to May 13, 2016, with a tentative year-end celebration and program May 15.

“We are now housed in First United Methodist Church on Main Street,” said Jami Dellifield, director. “We have a few spaces left for students who would like to join us.”

(Just kidding.)
