SUU In View · Fall 2002

About the Cover:

On the Cedar City campus, President Bennion's High 5's are famous and something students, faculty and staff look forward to receiving. After the last Processional of Graduates at Commencement, President Bennion's hand was very warm, to say the least, from congratulatory slaps to some 1,200 students (the largest class ever!) and their great accomplishment. Along with this meaningful gesture, the President has declared the obtainment of more Scholarships, and Enrollment Management, as the foremost strategies for recruiting more students, and retaining them until a Commencement day on which he will give them the biggest High 5 yet!
