Event recognizes committed gifts through estate plans
MURFREESBORO — MTSU
recognized community members who have made financial commitments to the
university for the long term during Friday’s second annual 1911 Society
Luncheon in the Student Union Ballroom.
The group, named in honor of MTSU’s founding year,
celebrates individuals and families who have created gifts to the university
through their estate plans. New members
of the 1911 Society receive a framed rendering of Kirksey Old Main.
New members honored Friday included: Steve and Kathy Anderson, Alee Clark,
Gayle H. and Dwayne Duke, Jean
Gould, Margaret R. Hall, Richard Key,
Rita S. King,
Paul W. Martin Jr., Karen
and Toby Mongan, Andrew and Elise Oppmann, Gayle Ray, and
Mary Secrest.
Also celebrated at the April 11 event were certain members
of the Signal Society, which honors annual donors who have supported the
university in 20 or more years. This group is named for Middle Tennessee Normal
School’s first newspaper/magazine, The Signal, which was originally published
in 1912.
Those recognized
Friday were Signal Society members who had reached the 40-year plus milestone.
Donors are given an engraved medallion reflecting their years of support.
This year’s group included: H. Dalton and Cynthia Drennan, Barbara and Jerre Haskew, Dan and Margaret
Scott, David and Lorraine Singer, and Tommy and Judy Smith.
