LWU Honors students showcase graduate-level research By Shelby Burton From the economics of jiu jitsu to the effects of ASMR on short-term memory, 13 Lindsey Wilson University Honors students explored a wide range of topics during the R.V. Bennett Honors Program spring symposium on Tuesday, April 14, 2026, in the Katie Murrell Library. Held in the Thomas D. Clark Reading Room, the symposium featured student presentations spanning healthcare, business, communications, psychology, literature and more - turning the space into a daylong academic conference that highlighted the depth and diversity of undergraduate research at Lindsey Wilson. The symposium is a cornerstone of the R.V. Bennett Honors Program, where students spend a semester, and sometimes up to a year working closely with a faculty mentor to expand a course project or independent study into a more in-depth research presentation. "The students spend a semester working one-on-one with a faculty mentor to take a project wider and deeper," said Lindsey Wilson associate professor of history and R.V. Bennett Honors Program director Beth Tapscott. "We want them to find something they're passionate about and have the opportunity to really dive into it and take things beyond the expectation."

Baseball: Adair defeats Green Co. 9-4 By Trey Stephens, Staff Writer The Adair County Baseball team currently sits at 8-7, recently off a 9-4 win at home over Green County. Prior to the win over the Dragons, the Indians fell 0-6 to Frankfort last Wednesday, defeated Henry County 6-1 last Thursday, and lost to Muhlenberg County 10-12 on Friday.

Bryce Russell would come in on relief for the final inning, giving up two hits and one earned run while striking out one batter on 26 pitches. Russell lead the team offensively, with three hits on three at bats He also posted five of the team's seven RBIs. Kemp also did well at the plate, posting two hits. Bentley Petty and Alex Martin also posted a hit each for the Tribe. Martin posted an RBI, joining Russell and Dax Conn to be the only three Indians to bat in runs in the game. The long ball was key to Russell and Martin's hitting. Russell sent two scorchers over the fence and Martin sent one. The team now turns its attention to South Warren (8-4-1) who will host the Indians on Wednesday, April 15, 2026. The Indians faced the Spartans twice last season, and each team took a game during the month of May. Adair County will host Clinton County on Thursday.
