Community service is at the core of Greek life at Ohio Northern. Greek students recently gave several local children with special needs the chance to be a king or a queen in their own right.
Night to Shine, sponsored by the Tim Tebow Foundation, is a special worldwide event that began in 2014 as a way to celebrate those with special needs by giving them a classic prom experience, something many of them never have the chance to experience otherwise.
The Lima First Assembly of God Church was one of the original 44 sites to participate in the event, and ONU’s Greek students have been involved from the start.
ONU's composer workshop is slated for 8 pm on Wednesday in Presser Hall. The event is free and open to the public. The program will feature music written by ONU students.
The Engineering College will hold its annual Senior Design Showcase at 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday, April 25 in the McIntosh Center ballroom. The event is free and open to the public.
Engineering student groups will display their projects using posters and prototypes (or video or photos of their project if it is too large for McIntosh). The designs will be judged by industry representatives after the students give a short presentation and answer any questions from the judges.
The event will include 26 projects and 102 students working in teams.
Members of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes gather in the Kennedy Garden on Sunday afternoon to plan Tuesday's bonfire. The Kennedy Garden, adjacent to English Chapel, is in honor of the daughter and granddaughter of the school's founder.
ONU Disc Golf Club held its first tourney Sunday with 15 competitors aiming at 20 holes over a two-hour period to see who was the best. It takes a lot of discs to play, as evident in the pack held by Colin Frank. Each disc serves its own purpose depending on the throw that is needed. Adam Smith is club president.
