NPC Board Endorses Nighthawks Mascot
Hot Springs, Arkansas – National Park College (NPC) Board of Trustees held their regular monthly meeting on Wednesday, October 26. Items for report included endorsement of the new mascot, new art and criminal justice degrees, and an update on the Innovative Technologies Center (ITC). The Board welcomed new hire, Anne Benoit, NPU Admissions Representative. The October Student of the Month, Jacob Albrecht, was introduced by Communications and Arts Division Chair, Roger Fox. Fox said, Albrecht was nominated for the award by Dr. Ferris Allen, his Music Appreciation instructor. He graduated from Lake Hamilton High School, where he played trombone in the Lake Hamilton Powerband. He is taking general education courses and plans to work toward a degree in engineering. Dr. Allen said Albrecht has “insightful observations in writing and class discussion” and that, “instead of stopping at an introductory level of appreciation, he insists on reaching for a deeper understanding.”
