Northwestern State University’s Cammie G. Henry Research Center received a trust of $200,000 from a benefactor whose collection of family documents has been managed by the NSU Archives for more than 40 years.  The bequest from the estate of the late Edward Myers Egan is the largest single monetary donation to benefit Northwestern State’s Eugene P. Watson Memorial Library.

Thirty-two Northwestern State University students were named to the 2012 edition of Who’s Who Among Students in American Universities & Colleges.

The students were chosen by campus nominating committees and editors of the annual directory based on their academic achievement, service to the community, leadership in extracurricular activities and potential for continued success.

The Northwestern State University Foundation presented proceeds from its Homecoming 5K to Hope for Paws, a non-profit animal rescue group. 

NSU teamed with Natchitoches Hope for Paws in hosting the 5K in which participants were invited to run or walk with their dogs, raising more than $3,200.
