The Carroll Shelby Automotive Program at Northeast Texas Community College added two “new” Mustangs to its stable this week. On Monday they took delivery of a pair of 1968 Shelbys donated by Barry Smith of Legendary GT in Blair County, Pennsylvania. Though both the same model year and convertibles, one is a GT350 (white) and the other a GT 500KR (black).

Academic conferences are not only great information-sharing events; they are contests that determine the scholars who have the information worth sharing. In this competition, written abstracts matter, and winsome abstracts, require arresting titles, unique phrases, and surprising insights—linked together and conveyed in the time consumed by an elevator ride. They are sometimes called “elevator pitches.” At Northeast Texas Community College, honors students often begin their research in conjunction with films that occur before their first fall semester. During the semester of their first year, they write weekly “ideophanies” that involve at least two conceptualizations every week. By November, they compose posters, engage in “arresting concept” contests, and write fifteen-page rough drafts.
