Nick Vaughn's full ride.

On Thursday night Nick Vaughn, NAC's Friday guest columnist, was awarded the Benjamin Templeton scholarship for a full ride at Hanover College.

As noted on Fb, "This scholarship is given to students who have worked to build strong high school communities by bridging gaps among economically, socially, and racially diverse groups."

It has been a pleasure to get to know Nick. Contrary to what you might believe, it is not disconcerting to think that I'm old enough to be his father.

Rather, it's disconcerting to think that I'm old enough to be his grandfather.

Ouch. Good luck to Nick, and we'll read him again next Friday.

Wait; I meant to ask ... did this guy help arrange Nick's financial aid?
