The NGCSU annual leadership conference on May 8-9 drew academic and military leaders from
across the country and from various disciplines to focus on "Creating Leaders
for Asymmetric Warfare." Perceptions of asymmetric warfare taken from the news
media frequently focus on the devastation and loss of American lives in Iraq
from improvised explosive devises. Retired U.S. Army Brig. Gen. David Grange
offered a much broader perspective. 
Mike Cottrell, owner of Gainesville-based Cottrell Inc., received an honorary Doctorate in Business Administration from NGCSU on May 3. The Mike Cottrell School of Business, named for the university's largest benefactor, honored Cottrell
during the school's commencement ceremony. This is only the fourth honorary
degree title to be awarded by the institution.
