Introducing the Georgetown College Hall of Fame

CLASS OF 2021:

This past summer, Georgetown College started a new tradition of celebrating its Hall of Fame inductees with a special banquet. Celebrated at Founders’ Day in past years, we happen to think that these amazing alumni deserve their own day and their own ceremony.

Price & Judy Smith

Price and Judy Smith have dedicated their lives to improving Scott County and supporting Georgetown College.

Price Smith grew up on Main Street in Georgetown and would walk to class during his time at the College in the early 1960s. After his graduation, he began a fruitful career as a farmer in Scott County. During his long and successful career, he has served as Supervisor on the Scott County Conservation Board.

Judy Smith graduated from the University of Kentucky and worked as a teacher. In her distinguished career, she has served on the Scott County Board of Education and started the first Meals on Wheels program in Scott County, giving back to the community she loves so dearly.

The Smiths are huge basketball fans and loyal supporters of Georgetown College. They can often be found supporting the Tigers in Davis-Reid Alumni Gym. The Smiths have four children and twelve grandchildren. Their tireless work for their community and their everlasting support of Georgetown College has had an astounding impact on so many lives.

Ken & Sandy Hale

Ken and Sandy Hale have lived a life defined by a loyal obedience to God’s will, and their dedication to their alma mater has been a blessing to Georgetown College and the campus community.

Ken and Sandy attended Georgetown College in the late 1960s until their graduation in 1969. During their time as students, they both felt a call to ministry. After graduation, Ken attended Southern Seminary, and Sandy taught in the Jefferson County School System.

Eventually, they felt called to leave Kentucky and move to New Hampshire, where they helped to build a Baptist community and ministered to students at Dartmouth College. For more than three decades, they changed countless lives with their ministry in New Hampshire.

After retiring from their New Hampshire ministry, they have greatly enjoyed being able to more fully reconnect with Georgetown College and their classmates. They are still involved with several ministry programs, where they continue to work hard to better others’ lives.

Earl & Vicki Goode

Earl and Vicki Goode have devoted their lives to service, finding success by following their passions along the way. Both Earl and Vicki attended Georgetown College and graduated in 1962.

While students, Earl played basketball and was president of Pi Kappa Alpha, and Vicki was a member of Sigma Kappa.

After graduation, Earl began his career with GTE, where he worked for 40 years until his retirement. During his retirement, Earl entered public service. He has served as Chief of Staff for two governors from the state of Indiana, and he now serves as Chief of Staff to current Governor Eric Holcomb.

Throughout her life and career, Vickie has pursued her love of design and furniture. Vicki opened a successful design and furniture business in Indianapolis, which she owned and operated for more than 30 years before retiring.

The Goodes have been loyal servants to Georgetown College, with Earl serving as Chair of the Board of Trustees in the 2010s. Their commitment to their alma mater has touched countless individuals throughout their lives and their careers.
