As the fall 2025 semester came to a close, Kendall Gragert, associate director of Sam Houston State University’s Elliott T. Bowers Honors College, and the 2025-2026 cohort of Sam Houston Honors Scholars partnered with the Sundale Senior Living Facility to facilitate meaningful and holiday-themed events for the residents.
Honors scholars recently gathered to spend an afternoon with Sundale residents for some festive rounds of bingo.
The students set up snacks and hosted rounds of bingo. Gingerbread decorating
tables were available, as well, which the students enjoyed and participated in,
even getting to taste some of their efforts. Bingo winners could choose from a
variety of door prizes gifted by the Honors College.
The bingo event was the second project the scholars took on this fall. Earlier in the
season, they gathered with Sundale to paint pumpkins and help host a fall festival
for the residents.
