The Muskingum University community raised more than $1,200 for the Cancer Concern Coalition. Students, faculty and staff gathered on the Quad Wednesday to show awareness and support by wearing pink. T-shirts were sold with the proceeds as part of the overall donation.

The Cancer Concern Coalition serves in the Morgan, Muskingum and Perry counties.

The theme of #MuskieHomecoming Day 2 was definitely enthusiasm. If you had a chance to walk around campus, then you saw people young and old, past and present, from all over the country soaking in the amazing day. Saturday kicked off bright and early with the M-Club breakfast, was capped by the Muskingum Society Reception that evening, with a whole bunch in between, including:

Hundreds of past and present Muskies descended on campus early Friday morning to kick off Muskingum’s weekend long Reunion/Homecoming festivities. Alumni and students took advantage of the perfect fall weather to enjoy campus and attend some of the many planned activities and events throughout the day. After a full day of celebration, Muskies were treated to a concert in Brown Chapel and a late night bonfire on the quad. Highlights included:

Ohio Department of Education Chancellor Randy Gardner made a scheduled stop in New Concord this week to tour campus and to learn more about key institutional initiatives. Chancellor Gardner kicked off the visit with a stop in President Sue Hasseler’s office where they discussed a bit of the University’s history and its impact on the region.
