This is a first for Ada, Ohio.
Can you name a time when a former resident was featured on the back page of Time magazine?
We can’t.
The honor goes to Ohio Northern University graduate Mike DeWine, who also happens to be the governor of Ohio. Time asks the ONU alum 8 interesting questions, including, “You talk about bipartisanship. Would you serve in a Biden Administration?”
The feature’s headline reads: “Mike DeWine Ohio’s Republican governor on being honest about coronavirus and getting what he needs from Washington.

Icon will post Senior Spotlight features in cooperation with Ada schools
Posted by Fred Steiner on Thursday, April 16, 2020
The Ada Icon joins Ada High School in recognizing members of the class of 2020 by posting Senior Spotlights. The first Spotlight, featuring Logan Conrad, is posted in this story.
Dan Lee, Ada High School principal said, “We wanted to do everything within our power to preserve as many of the senior class members’ experiences as possible.
“We thought a Senior Spotlight would be a great opportunity to celebrate these students,” he said.
The Spotlight feature is found on the Ada Bulldogs Facebook and the Icon will use those features on its website.

Ada High School senior class is the winning class of the 2020 Interclass competition. The seniors compiled 1,115 points. Individual winners in the various entry categories follow:
