Since I was so sad to see my time at Cedarville come to an end, I knew I had to be a part of it. It has been great to start a little Cedarville community away from Cedarville. I’m excited to see it grow and connect with Cedarville alumni from all generations!” — Andrea Davis ‘12 Get involved in an alumni chapter near you: cedarville.edu/alumnichapters February 2, 2013 — Southwest Florida | Chapter Event Alumni Scholarships Awarded on Honors Day The annual Honors Day chapel was held on April 15, 2013, recognizing students for their academic excellence. Awards were given based on the recipients’ field of study and future pursuits. These awards and scholarships are provided by generous friends and alumni of the University. On behalf of the recipients, thank you to our generous alumni who make these awards possible. Each year Cedarville alumni fund two scholarships: the John W. Bickett Heritage Scholarship and the Alumni Scholarship. The John W. Bickett Heritage Scholarship was established by the Heritage Alumni of Cedarville College in 1982, in honor of the first Cedarville graduate, John W. Bickett. It was awarded to five seniors preparing for pastoral or missionary service and planning to attend seminary or language school. The Alumni Scholarship, established by the Alumni Council, was given to one student from each of the 15 academic departments. Alumni Scholarship Recipients Radleigh C.
