| April McCauley, former Gore Center graduate assistant, designed and installed displays for the 30th annual induction ceremony of the Blue Raider Hall of Fame. The two-day event was held in the Emmett and Rose Kennon Sports Hall of Fame on campus September 16 and 17. This year’s inductees are Roland McGhee (Track & Field, 1991-1994), Dennis Mix (Football, 1979-1982), and Tim Sisneros (Basketball, 1973-1976). | |

McCauley's design consists of six different display areas. The exhibits feature: the 2005 Hall of Fame inductees; Current members of the Hall of Fame; History of "Harvey" totem pole (traditional symbol of MTSU-TN Tech rivalry); Charles (Bubba) Murphy (former student athlete, coach, and athletic director); Blue Raiders Through the Years photograph display; and the Blue Raider Experience, featuring design plans of LaPaglia & Associates for future permanent displays at the Hall of Fame. |
| McCauley's exhibits will remain on display throughout the football season. The Hall of Fame is open to the public during the week. The Hall of Fame hosts a private reception for all former athletes two hours prior to all MTSU home games. | 
April McCauley is a former graduate assistant at the Gore Center. She is currently completing her thesis for the Master's Degree in Public History. |
