I was informed at a College meeting that I was a Herald at Large. That was some time ago, but I still haunt the hallways and help the newcomers in directions that lead them towards submissions. 
It gives those in the College a goal, and the members a measure of where they are in comparison to their fellows. 
It has not been utilized as a tool in a while, that I have seen, but I think it still is a valid item. 
Could the roster be updated? 

Crandall, Olde Phart 

One's sense of honor is the only thing that does not grow old, and the last pleasure, when one is worn out with age, is not, as the poet said, making money, but having the respect of one's fellow men.
-Thucydides
