November 14, 2014
In honor of the service and sacrifice of so many in uniform, we at the Aspen Institute
asked the veterans on our Leadership Council to reflect on their own service. Specifically, we asked them to reflect on the links between the work the Franklin Project is doing on civilian national service and the service of men and women in uniform.
We also spoke with three young and inspiring individuals who are not only veterans, but have continued to serve in other ways. We’ve included their reflections as part of this compilation.

Murray State baseball was hot and cold in a four-game series against Morehead State. In three of the four games, Morehead State’s offense was able to overpower the Racers, but an explosion at the plate from redshirt junior center fielder Jake Slunder helped Murray State capture a game three victory.
Game One
The Racers put freshman right-hander Jack Wenninger on the mound to start game one of the series on Friday, April 30. Wenninger has been a big help for the Racers, posting a 4-3 record coming into the game. However, the Morehead State offense exploited him as early as the first inning. AfterWenninger walked the second batter of the game, redshirt senior infielder Stephen Hill stepped up to the plate and hit a two-run home run.
