Members of the Class of 2016 returned to campus Friday with a strange new title – “Distinguished Alumni.”

A panel of nine recent graduates spoke with current seniors in the Stefanis room during break to impart wisdom on this year’s  class. They touched on an array of topics, including roommates and how to balance the new fun with the challenging schoolwork.

The college freshmen present were Camille Bone (Middle Georgia State), Carter Canady (Mercer University), Elizabeth Copelan (Texas Christian University), Jaedyn Ellis (Barnard College), Libby Ellison (Georgia Tech). Emily Claire Fussell (University of Alabama), Felton Hatcher (Wake Forest), Conner Hefner (Marymount Manhattan College), and Wehbe Lee (University of Virginia).
