John Glenn, the first American to orbit Earth and then serve Ohio for 24 years in the U.S. Senate died on Dec. 8. He was 95.
Ohio Northern's Facebook page recognized Glenn this way:
"Yesterday we lost an icon and pioneer, but we remember the legacy he leaves behind. We thank John Glenn for his service and his heroism. Mr. Glenn was awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Public Service from Ohio Northern University in 2010. Godspeed, John Glenn."
