Men's Cross Country Wins NCAA South/Southeast Regional Championship

 

Dear Alumnus/Alumna,

Greetings from Rhodes College! As we approach the final stretch of the semester, we look back on a wonderful fall term. Chapter receptions for prospective students, a productive meeting of the Alumni Association Board, and a splendid Homecoming/Reunion Weekend are among highlights for the Alumni Office in Fall Semester 2008.

This issue of Inside Rhodes is full of news and opportunities to become involved in advancing the College. I urge you to explore the various features and announcements. Please enjoy the Homecoming/Reunion photos, appreciate the contributions of Rhodes authors who have donated books to the College, enjoy the profile of Sid Strickland ’68 and see what is happening in Chapters.

Director of Alumni Relations
