Crowds "Make Some Noise" for Makin' Music 47

Hostesses for this year's show were Kaitlyn Moore, a social work and Bible major form Henderson, Tennessee; Emma Kate Garrett, a business analytics major from Decatur, Alabama; and Taylor Roberson, an English education major from Jackson, Tennessee. Jude Bowers, a marketing major from Franklin, Tennessee; Black Westmoreland, a marketing major from Madison, Alabama; and Elijah Hester, a finance and financial planning major from Florence, Alabama, were 2024 hosts.

Serving as this year's emcees were Michael Mullinicks, a Bible major from Hohenwald, Tennessee; Julie Gann, a kinesiology major from Huntsville, Alabama; and Zoe Johnson, a marketing and business major from Columbia, Tennessee. Student coordinators were Addie Everson, a public relations major from Mesquite, Texas, and Elle Rhodes, an early childhood education major from New Johnsonville, Tennessee.

Phi Kappa Alpha's winning show was created by a team of six hardworking student directors: Anniston McCall, Annie Simpson, Grady McCall, Derek Griffin, Cam Mann and Will Rawson. Anniston McCall, a senior photography and graphic design major, shared her favorite moment of the Makin' Music experience. "My favorite part was being in the middle of it all and seeing everyone's faces. As a director, obviously you want your show to win, but more than that, you want your cast to get to experience it more than you do for yourself. The directors have said from the very start that this could be the most talented cast the club has ever had, and they proved us right over and over again. They were hardworking and bought into the theme from the very beginning."

As is tradition, each of FHU's five social clubs took on the monumental task of presenting an original seven-minute musical story by creating their own costumes, props, choreography and lyrics set to popular songs. This year's club shows featured various themes, including Chi Beta Chi's "Washed Up," Omega Chi's "A Knight to Remember," Sigma Rho's "Conflict in the Cosmos," Phi Kappa Alpha's "When in Doubt, Call the Scouts!" and Xi Chi Delta's "Hysmith High: Clash of '02!"
