LWC Psychology students present research at KPF Conference From Duane Bonifer Frankfort, KY - Lindsey Wilson College students Ashley Turner '26 of Lexington, Kentucky, and Alondra Fuentes Nava '25 of Columbia had both heard that a college student's grade point average can be affected by working too much, but they were curious to see if that claim could be supported through research. So along with Dakota Boaz '25 of Leitchfield, Kentucky, they set out to see if the two subjects were connected. Their research did not uncover a correlation between the two topics, but, as Turner pointed out, "that could be because we only surveyed psychology students." Turner and Nava were among 100 undergraduate and graduate psychology students from 15 Kentucky colleges and universities who presented their research findings on Saturday, April 12, 2025, at the Kentucky Psychological Foundation's Kentucky Psychology Student Conference, held at Kentucky State University.

These dedicated professionals are the first point of contact in emergencies, providing critical assistance to those in need. Their work ensures the safety of both the public and law enforcement officers, often under high-pressure situations. KSP telecommunicators are responsible for dispatching state police troopers, Commercial Vehicle Enforcement officers, Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Conservation officers and other emergency responders. Their duties include coordinating emergency responses, notifying administrative channels, running vehicle and criminal background checks and providing crucial information to first responders while managing multiple calls and radio traffic. Most importantly, they are the reassuring voice on the other end of the line when someone calls for help. "During National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week, KSP proudly honors the dedicated men and women who stand as the critical link between our Troopers and the communities we serve," said Post 15 Telecommunications Manager Miranda Luttrell.

LWC: Dr. Gerald and Sonja Chafin Music Endowment announced From Duane Bonifer The 25th Lindsey Wilson College Singers Gala Concert was one part performance, one part homecoming, one part family reunion, and one part celebration of the largest gift to the fine and performing arts in college history. The Gala Concert -- performed Sunday, April 13, 2025, at a packed Columbia Christian Church -- was the final time Lindsey Wilson music professor and director of choral programs Gerald Chafin conducted the choral group in an entire concert. (He will lead the Singers at the college's 2025 spring commencement on May 3.) The April 13 concert, which included more than three dozen of the program's alumni, was the 780th performance of the Lindsey Wilson Singers under Chafin, who has directed the musical ensemble since the 1997-98 school year. As had the previous 779 performances, Sunday's concert concluded with a benediction. But this time it included the announcement of the largest gift to the fine and performing arts in the 122-year history of Lindsey Wilson College. In honor of 28 years of service to the Singers by Chafin and his wife, Sonja, college officials announced that more than 50 alumni and friends of the choral program had combined to give $110,000 to establish the Dr. Gerald and Sonja Chafin Music Endowment. The endowment will be used to support the Lindsey Wilson Singers.
