"Some of you may have seen the local press coverage of the unveiling of a statue of David created by Fontbonne student Stephen 'Otter' Otten. Cathy and I could not be in St. Louis for the official unveiling, but we were given an opportunity to join Otter at the Ladue home of his friend and teammate Ron Cameron, where the statue is now on display..."

| Students Help Ferguson Business |
| |
| |
| |
|
Fontbonne University students are playing a role in helping a business in Ferguson, Mo., recover from an economic downturn after the shooting death of Michael Brown last summer and the protests that followed.
Efforts by the group have not gone unnoticed. Local CBS-TV affiliate KMOV Channel 4 highlighted the Fontbonne students during a recent visit to Ferguson. The “hands-on” effort by the students is a reflection of Fontbonne University's commitment to experiential learning outside of the classroom.
