ONU student profiles - features Ada's own Aaron Everhart

Currently on the ONU website
Posted by Fred Steiner on Friday, April 12, 2019

FROM ONU WEBSITE - ONU criminal justice major Aaron Everhart is a hometown guy, having grown up in Ada.

That was part of the reason he chose Ohio Northern – it really was home. That said, being involved in the production of a Super Bowl commercial wasn’t something he ever expected to happen to him, let alone through his Ada and Ohio Northern connections.

Through his family’s business, Everhart Trucking LLC, Aaron was presented with the opportunity to operate a truck used in the filming of a CBS Super Bowl pregame commercial filmed just down the road from ONU’s campus at the Wilson Football Factory.

45 minutes of Shakespeare

Posted by Fred Steiner on Thursday, April 11, 2019

WATCH THE VIDEO AT THE BOTTOM -

William Shakespeare visited a sophomore advanced English class at Ada High School on Wednesday.

Representing the English bard was former Ohio Northern University assistant professor of acting, John Robert Armstrong, who returned to Ada this week for a visit.

The 23 students in the class taught by Melody Veltri discovered that though the playwright died over 400 years ago, he left us with many phrases common in today’s vernacular.

Consider: Mum’s the word, something was dead as a doornail, too much of a good thing, seen better days, and, all Greek to me. Thank Mr. Shakespeare for these.
