The Library's annual Mini-Conference is open to all Huntingdon students, faculty, and staff.  Presentations can take the form of the more traditional paper presentation, but can also include posters, panels (drawn from a group of friends, from a class, from an affinity group such as BSU, Allies, Hispanic/Latinx & Friends, Greeks, Athletics), and creative works.  Need to brainstorm an idea, or want to participate but don't know where to begin?  Contact Prof. Kidwell (ekidwell@hawks.huntingdon.edu) or Ms. Crumbley (paige.crumbley@hawks.huntingdon.edu) and they will be happy to talk with you.

The symbol is known as the Agitos, which comes from the Latin meaning "I move," and serves as the visual representation of the Paralympic Movement.

The three elements of the logo are red, blue and green representing the most widely represented colors in nation flags around the world. They symbolize motion and the "Paralympic values of courage, determination, inspiration and equality," according to the IPC website.

The IPC also says the logo is meant to emphasize "the role of the Paralympic Movement in bringing athletes together from all corners of the world to compete and achieve sporting excellence."

"The symbol also [emphasizes] the fact that Paralympic athletes are constantly inspiring and exciting the world with their performances: always moving forward and never giving up," the IPC adds.

This version of the Agitos logo was introduced in 2019.
