FHU Names 2023 Homecoming King and Queen
Henderson, TN (12/07/2023) — At the end of a week-long celebration of homecoming festivities, the Freed-Hardeman University student body announced their choices for the 2023 homecoming king and queen in a special coronation ceremony Saturday, Nov. 11. This year, Elijah Brewer, a senior communication and public relations major from Lexington, Tennessee, was crowned king, and Julie Gann, a kinesiology major from Huntsville, Alabama, was crowned queen.
Elijah is the son of Cory and Summer Brewer. During his time at FHU he has been involved with Xi Chi Delta, Remote Area Medical, SGA, COMMA, the office of admissions and the Makin' Music Showband. He says that he most appreciates the growth that Freed-Hardeman fosters in people. "The person I was freshman year wouldn't recognize the person I am today, and I know many people who can say the same. Spiritually, mentally, socially, even physically - this place can change you for the better, but you have to let it."
Julie is the daughter of Mark and Sheila Gann. As a student, she has served as both a CDT student coordinator and as part of the Pi Epsilon steering committee. "The thing that I appreciate most about Freed-Hardeman is that I am not just a number like I would be at other colleges," she said. "FHU cares about every soul whether that person be a student, faculty or staff, and I have felt that throughout my four years here."
The mission of Freed-Hardeman University is to help students develop their God-given talents for His glory by empowering them with an education that integrates Christian faith, scholarship and service. With locations in Henderson and Memphis, FHU offers bachelor's, master's, specialist's and doctoral degrees. More information is available at http://fhu.edu.
