Honors Past, Present, & Future

Washington DC 2006!

photo album

Thanks to Betsy and Bill Leitch and their Fund for Student Travel and Research, we were once again able to travel with forty students to Washington, DC for the 2006 Honors Past, Present, & Future event at the Library of Congress.  Thanks to our host, Charles Stanhope, for his hospitality; to Howard Lowell, Jean Adams, and Allen Morell for arranging tours of the National Archives, Library of Congress, and DP Associates (respectively); and to all of the Honors alums who joined us for the gathering at the Library of Congress.  Special thanks also go to Marilyn Zoidis, senior curator for the star-spangled banner restoration project, for her stimulating talk on her work.  As the pictures below illustrate better than words ever could, the trip was enjoyable for all.
