Students continue to represent with Reinhardt pride
The average Reinhardt student is anything but average, often involved in many activities, teams and clubs. With nearly 1,600 students enrolled this fall, it's no wonder there is something on campus for everyone to make the most of their college experience and expand their minds. Reinhardt's campus saw some major expansions to accommodate the opportunities to further student success. ...  Read More
Cauble School filling critical need for nurses
The need for highly trained, well-educated nurses in the U.S. is expected to grow exponentially in the next decade. With the establishment of the Cauble School of Nursing & Health Sciences over the past year, Reinhardt is doing its part to provide the kind of caring, compassionate nurses to meet the demands for nursing professionals in Georgia and beyond.

At last month's Cauble School White Coat Ceremony, 15 students joined the inaugural class from the spring ceremony, beginning their journey in the medical field with a white coat presentation and blessing. ... Read More
#FacultyFriday: Keith Ray '06 sparks curiosity

Biology instructor and lab coordinator Keith Ray is a valuable asset to the biology department with his 15 years of research experience in the field, especially in aquatic biodiversity and ecology.

Building on his love of the outdoors, and inspired by his wife and three sons, Ray hopes to spark the interest in his students with how the world around them functions at all levels.

“There are so many amazing things taking place all around us, that illuminating one new plant or animal often allows us to see so much more that’s connected to it," said Ray. ...  Read More
Reynolds Wayside Chapel
installed in Burgess Arboretum
Reynolds Wayside Chapel, an outdoor meditation space located in Burgess Arboretum between Hill Freeman Library and Bannister Glasshouse at Hasty Student Center, was completed earlier this week.

The Chapel, designed and donated by longtime campus architect, Garland Reynolds, honors the historic connection of Reinhardt and the United Methodist Church. The words inscribed on the granite altar, "In Christ there is no east or west in Him no south or north, but one great fellowship of love throughout the whole wide earth," comprise the first verse of the hymn of the same name written by English journalist John Oxenham in 1908.

A dedication ceremony will be held later this fall honoring Reynolds, who has designed many campus buildings including the Falany Performing Arts Center, Fincher Visual Arts Building and Reinhardt's three latest building projects: Eagles View Residence Hall, Gordy Dining Center expansion and renovation, and the Reinhardt University Theater. Reynolds was awarded an honorary doctorate by Reinhardt last year.

Travis LeDoyt, "World's Best Young Elvis,"
to perform at Reinhardt Sept. 23
Get ready to be transported to the prime of Elvis Presley with a performance from Elvis impersonator Travis LeDoyt, dubbed the "World's Best Young Elvis."

LeDoyt's show will bring back all the fun Elvis Presley brought during 1954-1964, as he limits himself to Presley's hits and ambiance during that time period. He sings with a three-piece band including guitar, drums and bass.

LeDoyt's "Tribute to the King: Gospel & Hits" sells out nearly every show, and is about to sell out his performance in Flint Hall at the Falany Performing Arts Center, so be sure to purchase tickets as soon as possible. If you never got a chance to see Elvis in concert, this is your opportunity to experience the fun and aura of seeing him in person.

Tickets for adults are $35-40, seniors $30-35 and children $10-15. ... Read More
