Heywood Keep on learning ' Just when they thought their education was over, John O. Marsh, Jr., secretary of the U.S. Army, encouraged the 500 degree candidates to keep on earning. Marsh, who had served under Secretary of Defense Caspar Weinberger and President Ronald Reagan since 1981, said he found the need to keep learning essential to compete in today ' s world. He told the graduates to develop writing skills, study geography and demographics, master a second language, set a goal and then pursue it. Also at the ceremony, former Board of Regents members Welton Ideker and Dr. Harold Poynter were presented with the Distinguished Service Awards in recogni- tion of their contributions to the Board from 1977 to 1983. Other special awards presented at the 77th annual commencement ceremonies were the Morgan Citizenship awards. Graduating seniors Lauren Roland and Stephen Wheeler were recipients of the award for demonstrating the greatest appreciation of and capacity for the responsibilities of American citizenship. A rather unique event also occured at the spring ceremonies, however it was not an award or a special degree, but a personal triumph. Ruth Garrett, who started her college work on campus in 1939, completed her education 44 years later. Garrett received her bachelor of arts degree in English. -Heidi Hemmerlein James F McChee, a 1973 Northwest graduate, gave the jmmer commencement address.
