In the Fall 2024 term, a call went out for nominations of Bushnell students who had demonstrated by their observable behaviors that they were committed to approaching their classes as opportunities to learn, not simply to manipulate the class environment for high grades or other indirect rewards. Those nominees were named Bergquist Laureates. The award is named for Dr. Tim Bergquist, the founder of ACE Day, who loved to encourage students to be scholars. At noon, the Bergquist Laureates will participate in a panel whose topic is the elements of Bushnell classes that help them learn, things that do not help them learn, and things they wish they would see that would help them learn. Bushnell faculty are invited to attend to listen.
The panelists:
- Nate Bill
- Anne Faris
- Logan Gant
- Jackson Gielish
- Rachel Grant
- Trevor Hammond
- Trison Hedges
- Caleb Premo
- Dulce Ramirez-Ramos
