Jessica Champion was a typical 16-year-old. She attended Cherokee High School, played softball, and was active in her church. She occasionally argued with her older sister and didn’t always see eye-to-eye with her parents. She worked part time at Cracker Barrel. All classic things in the life of a teen. Sadly, that all changed when Jessica died in a car accident on July 18, 2000.
Although Jessica never had the opportunity to attend college, four years after her death, her parents, Mike and Debbie Champion, established the Jessica Champion Memorial Scholarship at Reinhardt University.

Honoring our Veterans
The Reinhardt community united in the Bannister Glasshouse on Thursday evening to celebrate and honor all men and women who have served in the United States Armed Forces. Lanterns were decorated in honor of friends, family and those who have served; they will be launched on Lake Mullenix during a deeply moving event on a date to be determined, for this annual “Lights on the Lake” celebration. Walter May explained "Of course, we can never fully repay the debt we owe to our veterans. But we can and we must cultivate an attitude of profound appreciation toward those who have served."
