***Graduation Spotlight!***
Today we recognize Madeline Grey as a Graduating Member of SMACS! Madeline has been a valuable leader in our community outreach efforts, and we greatly appreciate the work she has done.

After graduating and receiving her teaching license, Madeline will be partnered with Cachengo Industries in Huntingdon, TN as head of the company’s Education Division. She also hopes to remain in local classrooms as an Educational Assistant.

“Even though I have not been involved with the SMACS program for a long time I am incredibly grateful for all of the opportunities this club has provided me. I am absolutely thrilled that such a wonderful organization has given much thought and dedication to the education of our youth! I am thrilled to see the community outreach program grow and flourish within the coming years!”

Today, we want to honor our Treasurer, Caitlin Campbell, as a graduating member of Bethel University SMACS! Caitlin has done an outstanding job as our Treasurer for the past year. She will graduate with a Degree in Biology: Pre-professional Health. Caitlin is continuing her studies at Lincoln Memorial University to obtain a Masters degree in Physician Assistant Studies.

"As Eleanor Roosevelt once said “If life were predictable it would cease to be life, and be without flavor”. This is SMACS. Never would I have imagined myself getting involved in a membership so prestige, yet exciting and unique. Daniel, Dr. Evans, and all of my peers have worked so hard to make this “club” active and fulfilling and it brings me great joy to see what it will hold for the future and future generations. So, to all the members of SMACS, “success is not final; failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts”. - Winston S. Churchill"

While we will greatly miss Caitlin's contributions to the organization, we can't wait to see her do great things in the future. Congratulations Caitlin!
