Fleck

Pund

Two Indiana State University graduating seniors, who are from Dubois County, are receiving the Hines Memorial Medal this fall semester — Luke Fleck from Jasper and Sarah Pund from Ferdinand.

The Hines Memorial Medal is awarded to students who entered Indiana State as first-time college freshmen and are completing their bachelor’s degrees with the highest cumulative grade point average. It is named after Linnaeus Hines, the university's fourth president, from 1921-1933, and served two terms as Indiana superintendent of public instruction. The medal is awarded for the spring and fall semesters.

Fleck, an accounting major, will be starting a full-time position at Dauby, O'Connor & Zaleski LLC, a public accounting firm at Carmel. Pund, a nursing major, is looking forward to becoming a nurse at a local hospital in her hometown.
