A weekend in Northwest Arkansas
Harding University is located within driving distance of two Southeastern Conference (SEC) universities: the University of Arkansas and the University of Mississippi. Both Fayetteville, Arkansas, and Oxford, Mississippi, are located within 200 miles of Searcy, Arkansas. This semester, several Harding students have taken advantage of the close proximity of these universities, traveling with friends and family for a weekend road trip.
Beneath the Pryor-England Science Building lies a network of tunnels, ordinarily inaccessible to students. Though this may sound like a rumor or superstition, students had the opportunity to see the tunnels themselves thanks to the Harding University chapter of the American Chemical Society (HUACS), which offered tours Oct. 21, 22 and 23. The club also took advantage of the tunnels’ natural eeriness by giving the Oct. 22 and 23 tours a haunted theme.
Harding COVID-19 quarantine protocols
As of Sept. 24, Harding University has had a total of 149 positive COVID-19 cases and 184 close contacts of COVID-19 cases. The current definition Harding provides of a close contact is: “Someone who has been within 6 feet of an infected person for a cumulative total of 15 minutes or more, with or without a cloth face mask, over a 24-hour period starting from two days before illness onset until the time the person who has tested positive is isolated.”
How to choose a major
Students may come to college uncertain about what their major will be, or they may decide that the major they chose is no longer what they want. However, there are resources on campus to help students have the education they want.
