DAVIS & ELKINS COLLEGE

ELKINS, W.VA.

“Leading The Way”

Davis & Elkins College First Lady Lisa Wood shares a family holiday recipe.

Kylee Yergeau - 2019 Pre-Physical Therapy Graduate of Davis & Elkins College. Completing her final rotation in her Physical Therapy Doctorate program back near her home in the hills.

Davis & Elkins College senior Ava Willis had a choice to make – whether to attend her graduation ceremony or pitch for the Senator softball team in the Mountain East Conference tournament, both occurring on the same day.

Ultimately, she got the next best thing to both.
Between a double-header on Saturday afternoon, Provost Dr. Rob Phillips – dressed in full academic regalia – joined her on the pitcher’s mound to symbolically award her diploma. Willis topped her uniform with her commencement gown and affixed her mortar board cap she had decorated with crayons.
