In 1878, W.F. Crusselle was part of North Georgia's first graduating class and, at age 17, the youngest. He went on to become editor of the
Atlanta Constitution. Crusselle was invited back to campus on the
school's 25th anniversary in 1903 to deliver the commencement address, and
through much of his speech, he marveled at the advancement in technology — from
typewriters to telephones — that had revolutionized society since his graduation.
The 14th annual North Georgia Honors Academic Conference, formerly
"Honors Day," is fast-approaching. The conference, planned for April 7 and 8, will feature a diverse and accomplished group of students, faculty and guest speakers. The conference is scheduled for 3 to 7 p.m. each day and covers the entire campus.
In addition to individual student presentations, honor societies and other
academic or professional groups will stage activities.
