Arbor Day Celebration
2024-04-19 14:00
Hannibal-LaGrange University will hold an Arbor Day Celebration on Friday, April 19 at 2 pm near the Roland Library on HLGU’s campus. HLGU’s Arbor Day Celebration is open to the public.
Two alumni, Ruth Ihrig Foreman ’49 and Dorothy Sisson ’58, will be honored by the planting of two river birch trees on campus. These women supported Hannibal-LaGrange during their lifetime through financial gifts, by referring students to campus, and through prayer. They are great examples of the rich legacy of HLGU.
As its name suggests, the river birch naturally grows along riverbanks. But as a landscape tree, it can be planted almost anywhere in the U.S. The species is valued for its relatively rapid growth, tolerance of wetness and some drought, unique curling bark, spreading limbs, brilliant yellow fall color, and relative resistance to birch borer.
Planting trees on HLGU’s campus has been a longtime tradition as a Tree Campus Higher Education institution.
Tree Campus Higher Education is a national program created in 2008 by the Arbor Day Foundation to honor colleges and universities for effective campus forest management and to engage staff and students in conservation goals. HLGU achieved this title by meeting recognition standards including student service-learning projects.

Senator Cindy O’Laughlin was elected in 2018 and again in 2022 to represent Northeast Missouri in the Senate. In 2022, she was elected by her peers to serve as the Majority Floor Leader, the first female to hold this position in state history. She is credited with improving the efficiency of the Missouri Senate during her first year serving in that role.
In addition to her public service, Sen. O’Laughlin is the former co-owner of Leo O’Laughlin, Inc., a trucking company and ready-mix concrete business with locations in Shelbina, Macon, Marceline and LaBelle.
Prior to being elected to the Missouri Senate, Sen. O’Laughlin served as a school bus driver, an administrator at a local Christian school and as a member of her local school board. She previously served as chair of the Senate Education Committee and remains a strong advocate for school choice in Missouri.
Senator O’Laughlin has served on numerous statewide boards, such as the Associated Builders and Contractors, the Children’s Trust Fund and the Missouri Club for Growth. Senator O’Laughlin is currently a member of the National Rifle Association, Missouri Cattlemen’s Association, the Missouri Farm Bureau and Macon First Baptist Church.
Senator O’Laughlin grew up on a farm and spent much of her childhood around horses, livestock auctions and corn fields. Today, she’s the proud owner of several dogs, including Basset Hounds, as well as several rescue dogs.
A current resident of Shelbina, Sen. O’Laughlin has four sons, a foster daughter and seven grandchildren. She is a 1978 graduate of the University of Missouri.

The Hannibal-LaGrange University Theatre Department is proud to announce its production of Henrik Ibsen’s classic play, Hedda Gabler. Performances will be held on November 1 and 2 at 7:00 p.m., and a matinee on November 3 at 2:00 p.m. in the Roland Fine Arts Center.

Hedda Gabler is a powerful drama that delves into themes of power, freedom, and societal expectations. Audiences will be captivated by the complex character of Hedda, one of Ibsen’s most compelling creations, as the play explores her struggles in a world constrained by tradition and societal norms.
