Kevin Kaufhold earns recognition at Baldwin Wallace University's Ovation Festival 2017

2017 May 15

Kevin Kaufhold of Olmsted Township was among over 50 students recognized at the Honors Awards Ceremony during Baldwin Wallace University's Ovation Festival 2017, BW's annual celebration of student achievement.

Kaufhold, a graduate of Olmsted Falls High School majoring in political science, received the Alan Blumenthal Prize in Student Government. The prize was established by the Blumenthal Family to honor Alan, who was active in student government.

Now in its 10th year, Ovation has expanded from a single day to a 10-day festival in order to more fully recognize student success in research and scholarship, the arts, experiential learning and leadership, and athletics. The signature event is the Day of Excellence, which features exceptional student work from every school of the University through posters, displays, live presentations and performances. The day concludes with the campus-wide Honors Awards Ceremony that recognizes student achievement with scholarships and awards.
