The Shenandoah Top 10 for 2023
Reflecting On Shenandoah's Top 2023 Moments: Videos, Social Media & News
As an another exciting year at Shenandoah closes, we’re taking a few moments to look back at our top videos, posts and stories of 2023.
Haley Van Voorhis ’25, a safety on Shenandoah’s football team, gained national attention on Sept. 23, when she appeared in the Hornets’ win over Juniata College. Our most popular blog post of 2023 revealed that all of Shenandoah Conservatory’s BFA in musical theatre class of 2023 graduates had signed with talent agents or managers. Our new Bachelor of Science in Engineering program captured interest, too, as did University Commencement, Homecoming, Apple Blossom Festival activities, Move-In Day and Shenandoah Conservatory events. As usual, Shenandoah’s mascot, Buzzy D. Hornet, remained a fan favorite!
Read on to see what our viewers enjoyed the most in media coverage this year.
