The annual Dakota Wesleyan University Cares event, a combination of the former Great Wesleyan Giveback and A Day for Wesleyan events, was held May 4-5.
The service project spans two days for students, faculty and staff to fan out across the Mitchell community performing service projects preceding the annual online event designed to raise money for the Wesleyan Scholarship Fund.
HAMMOND, Indiana â A caravan of Trump supporters traveled hours from Evansville, Indiana, to Hammond to drive by Mayor Thomas McDermott Jr.âs house Saturday afternoon in response to a spat over a flag being flown outside a resident s home.
The group, Young Conservatives of Southern Indiana, had made the trip from southern Indiana to the mayorâs home in response to McDermottâs condemnation of an anti-Joe Biden flag containing an expletive.
The flag, which was placed on a residence that sits across from a park, violated a Hammond ordinance banning public display of obscene material because it contains two uses of the F-word, McDermott argued.Â
