HPU honors eight students for servant leadership
by HPU MEDIA RELATIONSEight Howard Payne students were honored
during Chapel on April 13 for their acts of ser-
vant leadership on campus and in the local com-
munity.
Four seniors were presented with the presti-
gious Nat Tracy Servant Leader Awards - Scott
Perkins, an Academy and Biblical languages
major; Rebekah Reed, a practical theology major:
Tiffany Warner, a communications major; and
Chase Woodhouse, a Christian education major.
The Nat Tracy Servant Leader Award was
established in 1998 to honor HPU seniors who
best demonstrate servant leadership qualities as
exemplified by the life of the late Dr. Nat Tracy, a
member of HPU's Bible faculty from 1950-1975.
The HPU Servant Leadership Award was pre-
sented to four junior-level students commemo-
rating the use of their God-given talents in ser-
vice to Christ and to others. Recipients included
Ciera Culpepper, a family studies major; Leah
Gonzalez, a social work major; Adam Hardy,
an Academy, political science and biblical lan- I
guages major; and Katie Riley, a cross-cultural
studies major.
A $1,000 scholarship is provided to each
recipient of the award. Each student designates
$250 of his/her scholarship award to be given to
his/her chosen charity.PHOTO BY AMANDA HENDRIX

Howard Payne's Dr. Pamela Bryant recently
was one of 35 people selected to attend a
University of Oxford conference of interdisci-
plinary scholars who have a particular interest in
gender equality in the education establishment.
The 35 scholars were joined in Oxford,
~ England, by Isobel Hurst, D. Phil. (Oxon.),
Lecturer at Goldsmith's College in the University
"With this invitation, you will join a small
interdisciplinary group of scholars who have a
particular interest in gender equality in the edu-
cation establishment," the event brochure stated.
The program took place March 20-25,
and Bryant hosted a session on Women and
" Leadership: Transforming Visions and Current
PHOTO Contests. In other words "How do women lead-
ecent ers in the university setting pave the way for
iblish- women like you to take our place and build
highways of your own," said Bryant, departmenthead for Physical Sciences at HPU.
The subtopics for the meeting were to "implic-
it institutional restraint on women's leadership,
manifestations of discrimination in the universi-
ty environment, gender and the hierarchy of the
institution (chairs to presidents), factors affect-
ing compensation, tenure and promotion, sexual
harassment and consequences, and discrimina-
tory rationalization of invisible ceilings," the
brochure stated.
"The purpose of the Oxford Round Table is
to promote education, art, science, religion, and
charity by means of academic conference and
publication of scholarly papers," the brochure
added.
Bryant promotes every element of the pur-
pose. "Recently I wrote an article in College
Faith, and I am currently teaching chemistry,
biochemistry, astronomy, and meteorology as
needed at Howard Payne, a truly awesome
University," Bryant said. "I am very humbled
and honored to attend this conference."
