(By Adam Kurtz. UND Today) – At the Henry Family Ballroom, UND students, their family members and friends, as well as faculty mentors, gathered to celebrate the most recent cohort of the University’s recipients of national scholarships.

In total, 28 students were recognized for their accomplishments, in an event that was attended by President Andy Armacost and Provost Eric Link, both of whom, once the celebratory reverberations of the Hawks in Harmony choir wound down, gave introductory remarks.
