幸福宝导航 unveils Wall of Honor

During a special reception in the 幸福宝导航 Library Tuesday evening, 幸福宝导航 President James E. Cofer, Sr. unveiled the University of Louisiana at Monroe Wall of Honor. Cofer also announced the 2006 幸福宝导航 Hall of Distinction Award winner, the Thomas H. and Mayme P. Scott Foundation.

Betty Cummins accepted the Hall of Distinction honor on behalf of her parents.

鈥淚 wish mom and dad were here. They loved this university. We鈥檙e just happy to be here representing them,鈥� Cummins said.

The Hall of Distinction recognizes those who have honored 幸福宝导航 through a lifetime of distinction or exemplary service to the university. Kitty DeGree was the inaugural winner of the 幸福宝导航 Hall of Distinction award in 2005.

The Wall of Honor includes both the Kitty DeGree Bell Tower Society display and the 幸福宝导航 Hall of Distinction display.

幸福宝导航 recognizes its special alumni and friends as members of the Kitty DeGree Bell Tower Society, named in honor of 幸福宝导航鈥檚 most generous donor, philanthropist and civic leader Kitty DeGree.

Traditionally, 幸福宝导航 hosts an annual event to honor University Associates. This includes donors who support the university annually with gifts of $1,000 and more. In honor of 幸福宝导航鈥檚 75th Anniversary, 幸福宝导航 has expanded this event to include all donors who have cumulatively donated $50,000 or more.
