Apr. 22, 1937: Grandmother as a College Junior

Once I figured out how to search the Florence Times archive on Google Newspapers, I found more great "small" insights into the family. Interestingly, I don't think the marriage announcement itself is digitized online.


Miss Virginia Reeder Honored at Montevallo

Miss Virginia Reeder, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Reeder, of Florence, a junior at Alabama College, Montevallo, was recently honored by being chosen for membership in Omicron Nu, national honorary home economics fraternity. 

Election to Omicron Nu is based on leadership and scholarship and only those students in the upper one-fifth of the class may be chosen. 

Miss Reeder was one of five students chosen from a large junior class. She is an honor student, having made honor roll each semester of her college career. She is at present a member of the Student Senate and has been reelected for the coming year. She will also serve next year as president of the Home Economics club, the largest club on the campus.
