In Fall 2014, Young Harris College welcomed its largest- ever entering class comprised of 507 freshmen, and broke overall enrollment goals for the eighth consecutive year. We continued adding depth to our academic programming, welcomed world-renowned lecturers and performers to campus, and watched another impressive class of graduates walk across the stage at Commencement. There is no question that our success is due to the thousands of loyal and generous alumni, parents, and friends who help us create an extraordinary learning environment through their financial support of the College. This decision to give makes a difference in the lives of current and future members of the YHC community, as your generosity allows us to continue providing the highest quality liberal arts education. On behalf of our Board of Trustees, administration, faculty, staff and students, thank you for keeping the YHC experience truly exceptional. It is because of your support that YHC has established itself among the leading colleges in the nation both today and for generations to come. It is my pleasure to share with you highlights from the 2014-2015 year. Cathy Cox, President A SIGNATURE FACILITY On Oct. 1, 2014, Young Harris College officially opened the new $41 million, 121,000-square-foot Rollins Campus Center, the largest building ever constructed at the College. Students immediately took note of how the center’s exceptional features enhance the academic and social components of their campus experience. Later in the month, we witnessed another historic day when we held a ribbon-cutting and dedication ceremony for the Rollins Campus Center—the culmination of much planning, hard work and dedication by many members of the YHC community. This center would never have come to fruition without the generosity of so many who believed in the College and what we are trying to achieve for our students. A $24 million gift from the Atlanta-based O. Wayne Rollins Foundation served as the lead gift, and we offer our heartfelt thanks to the Rollins family for their generous support. We were thrilled to have so many of them with us on campus to celebrate the occasion. A second ceremony was held later in the day to dedicate the 40,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art Zell and Shirley Miller Library. Former U.S. Senator and Georgia Governor Zell Miller, ’51, his lifetime partner and Message from the President wife, Shirley, ’54, and several members of their family cut the ceremonial ribbon outside of the new library. The library more than doubles the College’s previous physical space, utilizing three floors of the center for group study rooms, reading carrels, computer stations, and areas for permanent and special collections. In addition to the Zell and Shirley Miller Library, the Rollins Campus Center features the new 500-plus seat Grace Rollins Dining Hall, featuring made-to-order meals, grab-and-go options, multiple platform grills, a salad station and dessert bar. The Charles Edwin Suber Banquet Hall provides an elegant, spacious venue for group gatherings, guest lectures, workshops and receptions. Featuring a sound system, retractable screen and portable stage, this multipurpose space is available to the surrounding community for rental. Additional highlights of the facility include space for student activities and services in the third-floor Mary Ripley Warren Student Organization Loft, a multimedia theater with stadium seating, a Chick-fil-A® Express restaurant, a Starbucks coffee shop, and a game room with a pool table and foosball table. Without a doubt, this building has truly become the new social and intellectual heart of our campus. NEW ACADEMIC PROGRAMS AND LEADERSHIP The educational experience at Young Harris College continues to offer diverse academic programs and attract superb faculty and staff. In Fall 2014, the College added three new bachelor’s degree programs in creative writing, environmental science, and interdisciplinary studies that will prepare students for a variety of careers. The College also established two innovative minors—popular culture and sport studies. We also welcomed new academic leadership with Professor of Theatre and Dean of the Division of Fine Arts Chris Crawford. 2014–2015 PRESIDENT'S GIVING REPORT 3 Our students continue to impress both on and off campus.

It is intended to illustrate some of the events and thoughts that helped shape Golden. Major historical events and common day-to-day happenings that influenced the lives of the people of Golden are included. Corrections, additions, and suggestions are welcome and may be relayed to either the Historic Preservation Board or the Planning Department at 384-8097.

  • Geology and Hydrology, Front Range Urban Corridor, Colorado
    Bibliography and Index of Geology and Hydrology, Front Range Urban Corridor, Colorado By FELICIE CHRONIC and JOHN CHRONIC GEOLOGICAL SURVEY BULLETIN 1306 Bibliographic citations for more than 1,800 indexed reports, theses, and open-file releases concerning one of the Nation's most rapidly growing areas UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE, WASHINGTON : 1974 UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR ROGERS C. B. MORTON, Secretary GEOLOGICAL SURVEY V. E. McKelvey, Director Library of Congress catalog-card No. 74-600045 For sale by the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office Washington, D. C. 20402- Price $1.15 (paper cover) Stock Number 2401-02545 PREFACE This bibliography is intended for persons wishing geological information about the Front Range Urban Corridor. It was compiled at the University of Colorado, funded by the U.S. Geological Survey, and is based primarily on references in the Petroleum Research Microfilm Library of the Rocky Mountain Region. Extensive use was made also of U.S. Geological Survey and American Geological Institute bibliographies, as well as those of the Colorado Geological Survey. Most of the material listed was published or completed before July 1, 1972; references to some later articles, as well as to a few which were not found in the first search, are appended at the end of the alphabetical listing. This bibliography may include more references than some users feel are warranted, but the authors felt that the greatest value to the user would result from a comprehensive rather than a selective listing. Hence, we decided to include the most significant synthesizing articles and books in order to give a broad picture of the geology of the Front Range Urban Corridor, and to include also some articles which deal with geology of areas adjacent to, and probably pertinent to, the corridor.

  • All Grants Awarded Through Fiscal Year 2020 INTRODUCTION and KEY
    All Grants Awarded Through Fiscal Year 2020 INTRODUCTION AND KEY This report is a list of all grants awarded by the Colorado Historical Society’s State Historical Fund (SHF) since its inception in 1992 (state Fiscal Year 1993) through the end of Fiscal Year 2020. The amounts listed are the original award amounts. If for some reason the entire grant amount was not used (i.e. a project was terminated or was completed under budget) the full amount awarded will appear. In other instances grant awards were increased either to enable project completion or to cover the costs of easements. In these instances, the additional award amount is shown in a separate entry as an increase. In those cases where no work was accomplished and the funds were either declined by the grant recipient or were required to be returned to the SHF through rescissions, no entry will appear. For this reason, projects listed in one version of this report may not appear in later versions, and the financial information shown in this report may not be comparable to other revenue reports issued by the SHF. Grants listed in this report are identified by project ID number. The first two characters in the project ID number represent the fiscal year from which the grant was scheduled to be paid. The state is on a July 1 – June 30 fiscal year. So, for example, all grants made between July 1, 2006 and June 30, 2007 will be coded “07”. The next two characters identify the type of grant. In the case of grants that are awarded based on specific application due dates, the grant round in which the project was funded will be paired with either a letter or number.

The myth of the unbeatable fighter is just that, a myth. In what will go down as the single most memorable UFC fight in history, Ronda Rousey was not only defeated, but systematically destroyed by a fighter and a coaching staff that had spent years preparing for that night. On 2/28, Holly Holm and Ronda Rousey were the two co-headliners on a show at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. The idea was that Holm, a former world boxing champion, would impressively knock out Raquel Pennington, a .500 level fighter who was known for exchanging blows and not taking her down. Rousey was there to face Cat Zingano, a fight that was supposed to be the hardest one of her career. Holm looked unimpressive, barely squeaking by in a split decision. Rousey beat Zingano with an armbar in 14 seconds.
