A special ceremony was conducted Oct. 8 at Westminster Village in honor of Reed. After a brief introduction by ISU Executive Director of Alumni Affairs John Newton, Kevin Hoolehan of the ISU Foundation presented her with a one-of-a-kind Sycamore leaf sculpture in appreciation for her gift to the university. Reed addressed the crowd and shared memories of what it was like when she attended ISU.
