Now, she uses her voice to tell the story of being kidnapped and held captive for nine months. Her story, she wishes, is one of hope. Smart came to the University on Tuesday to speak about her life and overcoming the trauma she went through when she was kidnapped from her bedroom in Salt Lake City, Utah, in 2002. More than 550 students heard her story Tuesday afternoon, and then around 350 com- munity members, alumni, faculty and staff heard her speak during her evening speech, said Sara Bushong, dean of the University Libraries, which hosted the event with the University Libraries Advocates Board. Throughout her speech, Smart talked with self-deprecating, humor and humbleness. She did accents of the voice of her Scottish husband and a character in her favorite movie, “Ever After,” and told what she learned from her situation and from being able to speak See SMART | Page 5 LOOK ON BGNEWS.COM FOR MORE COVERAGE OF SMART’S VISIT Missed the speech?

Even then, President Homer Williams had both the vi- sion and unyielding determination to build a university rather than a normal school. He believed in strong academic standards and fought many attempts to keep BGSU from becoming what it is today, a university in which excellence is continually promoted and valued.
