Treasure Returns Home to Concord
s. Ruby Hurt stopped by Concord University this past fall to donate a framed two-piece photo of the Concord State Normal School faculty and students from 1926 and the football squad and coaches from the same year. Ms. Hurt picked up the treasure at a yard sale and just wanted to get
it back to its Concord home. She has no ties to Concord herself, however, her friend who came with her to make the donation, is a relative of retired physics professor, Willis Hill and mathematics professor, David Hill. The friend assured Ms. Hurt she would get her to the correct school to make the donation. So, on Oct. 28, they drove to
Concord and were directed by a public safety employee to the Advancement team who gladly accepted her donation. Sarah Turner, executive director of the Alumni Association, thanks Ms. Hurt for this wonderful addition to the Alumni archives and for her generosity.
