The High Point University History Club recently held a unique inaugural event – the first ever "Historical Halloween." Ellen Shelton, vice president of the club, organized the event. "The event was held in the Fellowship Hall of Hayworth Chapel, complete with Halloween decorations," Shelton says.
Dr. Frederick Schneid, professor of history at High Point University, recently published a chapter in the book, "Fighting Techniques of the Colonial Era, 1776-1914." Schneid, who co-authored the book, explains that the work is part of a series examining the evolution of European warfare from the ancient world to the present. This book is the fifth volume in the series.
High Point University was on Wall Street in New York City on Monday, Oct. 12, to ring the closing bell at the New York Stock Exchange. Dr. Nido Qubein, president of HPU, rang the bell, alongside 11 HPU students. The event aired live on nyse.com, and was aired live to the jumbo screen on the W Hotel in Times Square.
High Point University continues to find success - not only in growth in campus size and population, but in national rankings as well. New rankings that appeared in "America's Best Colleges," 2010 edition, published by the U.S. News & World Report, rank HPU as No. 1 in "Best Colleges: Up-and-coming Baccalaureate Colleges (South)," as well as No. 5 among all "Baccalaureate Colleges (South)."
