King, Jr., leader of The United Methodist Church in Kentucky, will deliver this year's keynote address. In addition to the annual Founders' Day Dinner, the day will include the college's annual Honors Convocation. "Founders' Day is always a special day at Lindsey Wilson because it's a celebration of the women and men who have made this college great for the last 103 years," said Lindsey Wilson President William T. Luckey Jr. "It's also a celebration of our students' and faculty's accomplishments of the school year." Honors Convocation will be held at 4 p.m. Honors Convocation, which is free and open to the public, will be held at 4 p.m. CDT in Biggers Sports Center. The event will feature more than two dozen academic honors, including presentation of the President's Award, Teacher of the Year and the new Begley Scholars. The President's Award is presented annually by the president to a graduating member of the senior class who best exemplifies the spirit of the Lindsey Wilson mission; the teacher of the Year is given annually by the Lindsey Wilson Student Government Association to a member of the college's faculty; and the new Begley Scholars will include members of the Lindsey Wilson freshman class of 2006 and one returning member of the college's student body. Founders' Day Dinner by invitation only The Founders' Day Dinner, which is invitation only, will be held at 6 p.m. CDT in Roberta D. Cranmer Dining & Conference Center. "It is such an honor to have Bishop King deliver this year's keynote address," Luckey said. "I've had the opportunity to hear him speak numerous times, and he is one of the most inspiration speakers I've ever heard." King came to Kentucky from Tennessee King was elected episcopal leader of the Kentucky Conference of The United Methodist Church on July 14, 2000. He came to Kentucky from Tennessee, where he was most recently the senior pastor of the Brentwood United Methodist Church, a 5,000-plus congregation in the Tennessee Conference. King's appointment to Brentwood represented a major cross-racial appointment in the Tennessee Conference as he was the first African American pastor for that congregation. From 1996 to 1999, Bishop King was District Superintendent of the Murfreesboro District in the Tennessee Conference. King was born in Ashland, Alabama, and he was ordained deacon in the Central Alabama Conference in 1970 and elder in the same conference in 1972. The co-author of 365 Meditations for Men, King earned a bachelor of arts degree from Clark (Ga.) University and a master of divinity from the Interdenominational Theological Center in Atlanta. In 2001, he was awarded an honorary doctorate of divinity from Lindsey Wilson. This story was posted on 2006-04-25 02:28:36
