You are cordially invited to a celebratory luncheon in honor of The Guild, held in conjunction with the
Dr. Dawn K. Wilson Teaching, Learning, and Research Symposium

on Saturday, October 11.

The 2025 symposium commemorates the inspiring legacy of Dr. Dawn Wilson — a beloved HCU faculty member, Guild member, and Guild scholarship recipient — whose passion for education, heart for service, and commitment to mentorship touched countless lives and brought glory to God.

The luncheon will feature a special panel of Guild Scholars sharing how their work is shaping today’s educational environments. Craig Doty, HCU’s Head Basketball Coach, will facilitate the panel discussion.

This year’s theme is: “Adventure Awaits: Exploring New Horizons in Teaching, Learning, and Research.” In the spirit of adventure, guests are warmly invited to incorporate safari-inspired or animal print accents into their attire, should they wish to reflect the theme.
