Committee on Elon History and MemoryIn August 2018, President Connie Ledoux Book announced the launch of the Commemoration Committee, now the Committee on Elon History and Memory, to explore questions related to historical memory and collective identity at Elon University. Provost Steven House subsequently appointed a university-wide committee of 12 faculty, staff and students to carry out the work, thereby joining the ranks of colleges and universities who are revisiting the stories institutions of higher education tell about themselves.
