The annual event recognized students and patrons. Invited guests included:
- Scholarship recipients
- Donors
- Advancement Board members
- College administration
- Scholarship committee members.
Rebekah Saylors, Scholarship Coordinator, said, "For many of our students scholarships are a key to a door of opportunity. This opportunity may be traveling abroad, returning to school to finish their degree, or even advancing their education with a master's or doctorate. For the 2016-2017 academic year, almost 330 students were awarded keys to their doors of opportunity in the form of almost $700,000 in scholarships."
