Auburn, Ala (EETV) - Auburn University welcomed students, faculty, families, and members of the community to attend the annual Miss Auburn University Pageant Friday, Oct. 2.
Doors opened at 5:00 p.m., and the competition began at 6 p.m., with all contestants presenting an opening number. The evening that followed showcased each contestant's individual talents, personality, accomplishments, and commitment to service. These rounds included talent, interviews, health and fitness, evening gown, and on-stage conversation.
Contestants also created and presented their own unique community service proposals. Each initiative addressed a local need or cause meaningful to the contestant while bringing community members together and encouraging continued involvement.
Emma Bishop was crowned Miss Auburn 2027 based on her scores across the competition rounds.
