Dr. Raymond Cravens, a retired Western Kentucky administrator and faculty member, was recognized Friday for playing in the annual Faculty-Staff Golf Tournament for 60 consecutive years.
Steve Rey, director of intramural-recreational sports, presented Cravens with a plaque before the start of the 60th annual tournament at CrossWinds Golf Course.
“For someone to play in every tournament is special,” Rey said in a news release.
Cravens, a WKU graduate who joined the faculty in 1958 as an associate professor of political science, has seen the golf tournament and the university change in the past 60 years.
“I’ve enjoyed good health,” said Cravens, who also served as professor of government, dean of the college, dean of the faculty, vice president for academic affairs and dean of public service and international programs at WKU.
