Congratulations to Annika Poet for receiving the Kendall E. Burke Award, one of Bushnell University's highest honors! 🏆
Annika was presented the award during Spring Commencement, where she graduated summa cum laude with a Bachelor of Science in Biology and received a medallion as a Song Nai Rhee Honors Scholar.
The recipient of the Dr. Kendall E. Burke Award, determined through a vote by the student body and faculty of Bushnell University, is presented with a distinctive Bible during the Spring Commencement service. This award is bestowed upon individuals who have demonstrated exceptional academic achievement, served as a source of inspiration to both students and faculty, embodied high ideals of Christian character, and made significant contributions to the University’s mission. This distinguished honor was named in tribute to the late Dr. Kendall E. Burke’s wholehearted Christian service to the University.
Great work, Annika!

Our grads understood the Gradbot assignment 🤝🎓
As a fun way to shake off some nerves and celebrate the event, we filmed some slo-mo moments of our graduating Beacons in their caps and gowns before Commencement!
The Gradbot videos and candid photos of Commencement can be found on our university Pixieset! Check the link in our bio for our gallery!

There’s something special about Baccalaureate bringing the journey full circle. 🌿
This evening we came together for a time of reflection, worship, and celebration with students and their families. The Cutting of the Ivy brings us back to Twining of the Ivy during Orientation weekend, where the journey at Bushnell began.
See you tomorrow morning, graduates!
