Ben Ray ’82, current Board of Trustees member and Senior Pastor of First Presbyterian Church in Derby, Kan., will be the speaker for the 2024 Sterling College Commencement ceremony.  The ceremony will honor the Class of 2024 and will take place on Saturday, May 11, at 9:45 a.m. in the Gleason Physical Education Center on the Sterling College campus.

March is Women’s History Month and Sterling College Concert Choir will be celebrating with their concert “Music, She Wrote” which is slated for this Sunday, March 24, at 7 p.m. at the United Presbyterian Church in Sterling. Besides Concert Choir, the program will feature select ensemble Highland Singers as well as SC Lasses (women’s choir) and SC Lads (men’s choir). 

“You are never going to do anything interesting if you're always trying to make sense.” That quote sounds like a mantra, life’s philosophy, or admonition – maybe all in one. It is also the title of the latest art exhibit at the Sterling College Art Gallery. An exhibit of Polaroid photographs by artist Caitlyn Frazer of Hays will be on display now through April 19. 

The Sterling College band program will be well represented this week when the Kansas Intercollegiate Band performs at the Kansas Music Educators Association conference at Century II in Wichita this Friday, February 23, at 2:45 p.m. 

A total of nine players from the Sterling College Concert Band were chosen after going through the audition process to join the 65-member intercollegiate band. The Kansas Intercollegiate Band concert is chosen and performs every other year at the annual KMEA conference in Wichita. The band alternates with the Kansas Intercollegiate Orchestra.
