DSC Crowns D-Queen 2008
Jennifer Shakespeare, a sophomore communication major from St. George, was crowned 2008 Dixie State College D-Queen at the annual D-Queen Pageant held April 8 at the Cox Auditorium on the DSC campus.
Shakespeare, who is about to complete her term as DSC student body president, was awarded a $500 scholarship. She carries a 3.7 GPA and will graduate with honors with an associate of science degree from DSC. Following her graduation from DSC, she will embark on a summer government internship in Washington, D.C.
Making up the rest of the D-Queen Court is first attendant and Miss Dixie Spirit Kathleen Price, a junior dental hygiene major from Sandy, Utah; and second attendant Rebecca Wright, a sophomore integrated studies major from St. George.
The D-Queen Pageant celebrates, first and foremost, academic prowess, service endeavors, talent, and extra-curricular activity. The pageant has long been a staple of D-Week, which first began at the college in 1915 as a way to increase school spirit among students, alumni, and the community.
