Stars & Stripes Homecoming at Campbellsville University By Matthew M. Billiot, student news writer, Office of University Communications CAMPBELLSVILLE, Ky. - "I didn't even think I was going to win," Kendra Polston, a senior from Burkesville, Ky., said after she won the crown of Campbellsville University's Homecoming Queen Oct. 6. Polston was crowned during halftime as the Fighting Tigers faced off against Bethel University to whom they lost 49 to 13. This was the Tigers' first night football game at Homecoming. Polston is majoring in social work and represented the Social Work Club. She plans to work somewhere in Kentucky doing child protection when she graduates. Kaleb Ibarra escorted her. Polston is the daughter of Pamela and Willie Polston. McKenna Hill, a senior from Smiths Grove, Ky., was first runner-up to the queen. She represented the School of Education and was escorted by Eli Wood. Her major is elementary education/special education. Second runner-up was Mollie Workman, a senior from Fort Gay, W.V., who is majoring in biology. She represented the Student Government Association with Levi Crossley as her escort. Alexus Hunt from Elizabethtown, Ky. was the freshman attendant. Her escort was Issiah Jones; she is majoring in social work. The Campbellsville University Distinguished Alumni were Dr. Paul and Shirley Lawson of Virginia Beach, Va.

The Class of 1968 was inducted into the Golden Heritage Club during a ceremony Oct. 5. This year's Homecoming theme was "Stars & Stripes." The winners of the floats who represented this theme were: Residence Life, first: Education Club, second, and Social Work Club, third. Brig. Gen.
