Honorary Class member

Every year, the graduating class selects a member from the College community to be their honorary class member. An honorary class member is recognized as part of the 2019 class and will be invited to future class reunions and events.  Each nominee has been selected based on the impact they have made in the lives of the senior class. 

The 2019 Senior Committee is pleased to announce the following nominees for the selection of the Honorary Class Member:
Steve Graves
Paul O'Daniel
Katy Lowe Schneider
Nasrin Shahinpoor
D.J. Walch

VOTE NOW FOR YOUR HONORARY CLASS MEMBER.  The winner will be announced at Senior Induction.

What happens to my HC email account?

After graduation, you will still be able to access and use your current @hanover.edu email address. However, YOU can decide if you would prefer to have your HC email or a personal email account on file with the Alumni Office. The email address that you select will be used to keep you connected with HC.

Most communications regarding alumni events such as our Pub Night, Churchill Downs, Alumni Theme Park Days, Homecoming, networking gatherings, reunion gatherings and the monthly online newsletter called @Hanover will be sent to the email you have selected.  As part of your RSVP, you will be asked which email address you prefer to have on file with the Alumni Office.
