As students and alumni, Bill and Edna Rose Guy have been committed members of the HPU family for decades. As students, both were extremely engaged in student life, with Edna Rose serving as president of Kappa Delta, PanHellenic Vice President and staff member of the “Hi Po” and “Zenith,” and Bill serving as president of Pi Kappa Alpha, business manager of the newspaper and the dormitory board. After graduating from High Point College, they pursued graduate degrees at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, East Carolina University and Memphis University. Both served as high school educators, taking on many leadership roles and receiving honors throughout their careers. They returned to HPU, where Bill served as the dean of students in the 1970s. During that time, he and Edna Rose lived on campus and became second parents to many HPU students. The Guys are incredibly dedicated to HPU serving as members of the Steel Magnolias, the Alumni Board, the Panther Club Board and the House Board of Kappa Delta. They are also very involved in the community, serving in various leadership capacities at Emerywood Baptist Church and giving their time to the High Point Theatre Board, State Employees Credit Union Advisory Board, Graduate School Board at UNCG, Friends of the Library Board, and the League of Women Voters, just to name a few.
