The current newsletter provides a summary of intervarsity student successes in the fall of 2023, including NTCC’s first attainment of the Portia Gordon Awards of the East Texas Historical Association, its anomalous showing in the recent publication of the state journal, Touchstone—having four of the articles authored by NTCC scholars, and Skylar Fondren’s success in becoming the seventh NTCC student to lead the student contingent of the Great Plains Honors Council. The newsletter also contains tributes to recent honors donors, the column of the honors director, and “Alacritous Alumni,” a section devoted to the attainments and activities of NTCC honors alumni.
