She Loves Me
Fall Musical
Georg Nowak and Amalia Balash are in love, they just don’t know it yet. Over anonymous correspondence the two have fallen for their mysterious pen pal, the only problem is that they know one another in person, and don’t like each other. In a musical filled with wrong assumptions and mistaken identities, will Georg and Amalia ever get their love/hate relationship untangled? Based on Miklos Lazlos play Parfumerie—which has been adapted into such beloved films as Shop Around the Corner, and You’ve Got Mail—She Loves Me takes this delightful romantic comedy plot and fills it with joyful music and spectacle.

2022 HLGU Phonathon
2022-04-11 17:30 - 19:30, 2022-04-12 17:30 - 19:30
HLGU alumni and friends will soon be receiving phone calls from current HLGU students, alumni, faculty, staff, and friends.
The 2022 HLGU Phonathon will be taking place on select nights between April 11 and April 21 from the institutional advancement office on the 4th floor of the Burt Administration building. Calling will take place between 5:30 and 7:30 pm on April 11-14 and 18-21. Callers will be reaching out to both HLGU alumni and previous donors to the institution.

This year’s Phonathon needs volunteers who love HLGU and would like to help make a difference in the lives of HLGU students. All volunteers will be provided with a script and phones for the event, as well as some snacks. Anyone interested in volunteering for the 2022 Phonathon should email Director of Alumni Services Lauren Youse at lauren.youse@hlg.edu.
Callers for the HLGU Phonathon will be focusing on four main areas of need for the University:

Immediate debt reduction
Student aid and scholarships
Faculty retention
Operating expenses

“The greatest impact we can make in this day is to raise up this next generation of students, equip them with the knowledge of a Christian worldview, and set them loose to serve the world wherever God should place them,” said HLGU transitional president Dr. Rodney Harrison. “In such a time as this, the need for friends to financially support HLGU is critical.”
Anyone who would like to give to HLGU can do so online at hlg.edu/giving or call the institutional advancement office at 573-629-3124.
For more information about the 2022 HLGU Phonathon, email Lauren Youse at lauren.youse@hlg.edu.
