Designed by Ken Mayer ’77 and dedicated on May 31, 1996, the Murphy Bell Tower and Arboretum anchored the ever-growing campus and inspired the design of buildings yet to come.

As he prepared for his last regular-season home game as head football coach, Ned Gonet shared his thoughts and gave unprecedented behind-the-scenes access to his game-day routine.

Hundreds of alumni and guests gathered to watch the game on Oct. 21, taking to the field during halftime for photos; then they returned to the Finley Center Oct. 22 for a dinner and program honoring Gonet. 

The longtime visual arts teacher, now retired, exhibits her work in watercolor, collage and photography in Pugh Lobby through the end of the month.

Part of a yearlong celebration, the 1997 image captured by Ray Barbour ’77 pays tribute to Ravenscroft’s 25th year in North Raleigh and its first graduating class.

Worthington, who served as Ravenscroft’s first academic dean, “touched a lot of lives — a testament to the extraordinary human being and educator he was.”

With time capsules and letters to their future selves, Ravens capture their passions and dreams — and then get to relive them as they prepare to move on.

The tournament-within-a-tournament at the 25th Ravenscroft Golf Classic draws a record 25 alumni competitors and helps raise money for Ravenscroft Athletics.
