University pledges $250,000 to YMCA
 Huntington
University has pledged $250,000 to the Huntington YMCA for its use
in constructing swimming pool facilities in its new building. “We
are very excited to have Huntington University partner with the YMCA
as we build our new facility,” said Dan Akeley, executive director
of the YMCA. “The participation from the university will enable the
YMCA to expand the competitive pool from six lanes to eight lanes as
well as increase the size of the warm-water recreational and therapy
pool. The larger pools will be able to handle all the additional
programming needs that the university currently conducts in their
existing pool as well as the YMCA’s needs.”

 On
the Eastern side of the Mount of Olives, past the separation wall,
Huntington University student Christina Warner sits across the table
from a Muslim family, who share stories about their lives after the
start of the second uprising. “The family has lost close family
members, either because they were killed or jailed, since the
beginning of the infitada,” said Warner, a senior Bible and religion
major from Bloomington, Ind. “They were incredibly welcoming, and I
was honored to be able to sit and listen to their stories."
