Dean Olson cordially invites all faculty, emeritus faculty, staff, students, administrators, and friends to join him in a welcoming ceremony for the College of Arts and Sciences Hall of Fame, Class of 2005. The reception will take place on Friday, February 18th from 4:00-6:00 p.m. in the Founder's Suite of the Bone Student Center and is free and open to the public. "Nineteen of the College's most prominent alums will return to campus for induction into our Hall of Fame—the highest honor the College bestows on its alumni," said Dean Olson. "This welcoming reception gives all those in the community who may have associated with one or more of our inductees the opportunity to welcome them back to campus and to congratulate them on this achievement."

Nomination can be based on outstanding performance in one's profession; demonstrated leadership in one's profession and/or community; favorable statewide, national, or international recognition; honors from associations or employers; outstanding service to the institution; and/or proof that one's work has proven beneficial to a pronounced segment of society.
