Jane & Dave Gearhart – President’s Award

Within 48 hours, students had the space they needed. Jane Gearhart learned of the plans for a University of Arkansas food pantry at a World Food Day meeting in 2010. Their accounts of classmates going hungry and staff purchasing food with their own money moved her to act. She and Dave, then the university’s chancellor, helped clear the way. Sixteen years later, the Jane B. Gearhart Full Circle Food Pantry still reflects this kind of conviction: students deserve the opportunity to thrive; and students still lead the pantry. “Finally, our number one guiding principle was dignity,” Jane explained. “That is still the case today.”

NWACC moves forward on campus expansion

NorthWest Arkansas Community College is making headway on the recreational amenities in its master plan that was approved last year , with some of the first projects coming to campus. Why it matters: The long-term plan stands to significantly increase offerings and amenities at the region's growing flagship community college, which also offers non-degree programs geared toward filling needed jobs in the area. The latest: The school completed a fitness center in fall 2025 and plans to open outdoor lighted pickleball courts and multipurpose courts for basketball, volleyball and tennis in June, president Dennis Rittle told Axios. The $800,000 project, which includes trails, is funded by a $680,000 state grant and $120,000 from NWACC. The college is also pursuing a roughly $10 million walking and cycling trail project, including a tunnel underneath 14th Street. U.S. Rep. Steve Womack has requested $4.5 million in federal funding for construction. Yes, but: Progress hit a snag in June when the Board of Trustees didn't approve issuing a request required to move forward with construction on a $35 million residence hall to house 300–400 students. The board previously approved the housing concept, location and funding model. What they're saying: NWACC plans to be debt-free
