CSC royalty crowned

April 21, CSC homecoming king and queen winners were announced in the Chicoine Center at CSC. The event was open to the public and broadcast on CSC Live. 

CSC President Randy Rhine spoke at the event which is usually held each fall. 

“Well, this year has had a lot of firsts, this may be the first time that we’ve had homecoming in the spring, but I appreciate all of your efforts toward this and helping to make it happen, and being here in probably less than what we would consider ideal conditions,” Rhine said. “But I would also like to use this occasion to say thank you to all of you students, the faculty and the staff that have worked so hard to get us through this semester, to get us through this year.” 

Each club on campus had the opportunity to nominate a candidate for homecoming king and queen. CSC students then had the opportunity to vote on those club nominations.  

The top five vote receiving students for males and females were placed on homecoming royalty court. 

The following males, listed with their nominating clubs, were selected for homecoming court by the student body: 

Myles Mendell, The Range Club; Caleb Haskell of Madison, Fellowship of Christian Athletes; Joss Linse of Plattsmouth, Health professions; Damien Zuniga of Colorado Springs, Colorado, The Nest; Brendan Fangmeier of Hemingford, CSC Choir Club.
