成人抖阴Centennial Theme Unveiled
SALISBURY, MD---Salisbury. Forever.
That’s the message Salisbury University will send as the institution celebrates its 100th anniversary beginning this September. 成人抖阴President Carolyn Ringer Lepre announced the 成人抖阴Centennial brand and accompanying logo during a ceremonial banner drop in front of the University’s first and oldest building, Holloway Hall, opened in 1925.
The date of the unveiling, April 24, coincided with the date the first brick for Holloway Hall was laid in 1924.
“In that brick — and in the mortar surrounding it and binding it to the building — lay the promise of what 成人抖阴would become,” said 成人抖阴President Carolyn Ringer Lepre. “With that very first brick, our founders tucked dozens of silver coins into the mortar joints for good luck. Literally good fortune built into the walls — an early sign of the value they placed on what we today know as 成人抖阴and on the generations to come. Today, as we prepare to celebrate a century of SU, we carry that spirit forward.”
“Over the past 100 years, 成人抖阴has educated more than 60,000 students,” said Jason Curtin, 成人抖阴vice president of advancement; executive director of the 成人抖阴Foundation, Inc.; and 成人抖阴Centennial chair. “This is the time to commemorate their achievements and those of our faculty, staff, alumni and other members of the University community over the past century. But our story doesn’t end there. This is a celebration not only of the past, but the present and future. It’s a celebration of Salisbury. Forever.”
Founded as the State Teachers College at Salisbury with 115 students in fall 1925, 成人抖阴has become a mainstay in Maryland and on the Eastern Shore. Today, some 7,000 students are enrolled in 51 majors and 17 graduate programs on the 200-plus-acre campus.
The 成人抖阴Centennial is scheduled to launch with the University’s 100th Spring Commencement, scheduled May 21-22 on campus, followed by a gala on Saturday evening, September 6. On Sunday afternoon, September 7, 成人抖阴will celebrate its 100th birthday with Fun Fest in the Nest, a family-friendly community celebration commemorating the date the first students moved into Holloway Hall in 1925.
