In her address on the East College lawn on Sunday, May 18, Deborah Bial, founder and Spresident of the Posse Foundation, challenged the graduates to continue “working together, listening to one another, debating like you’ve done in class at DePauw. Learning from each other, and collaborating to make the best possible future for us all. The most powerful forms of leadership are those that bring voices together, hearts together, minds together and then most importantly actions together for the greater good. If we care about each other’s causes, and pool our resources; if we care about each other’s problems, we have much more chance to build greater prosperity for all.” “You are about to walk “What will you do as a collective?” Bial asked the graduates. “What will motivate you to do across this stage and into good things? How will you care? Did you ever have a moment when your whole heart went out the world.

It is my pleasure to introduce the various partnership opportunities available for the 2019-20 academic year. The corporate partnership program, now in its second year, connects local and regional businesses, Wabash alumni, and community organizations with the educational mission of the College through our varsity athletic and campus wellness programs. The athletics and wellness program plays an integral role in the daily experience of the Wabash community. Athletics is especially significant for the nearly 450 scholar-athletes participating in our highly competitive NCAA Division III program, which includes 12 varsity sports. Our students compete at a very high level – as evidenced by the number of individual and team championships and All-America recognition our scholar-athletes achieve. And we annually rank among Division III leaders in fan support and attendance. In sum, Little Giant athletics offers learning and leadership opportunities on and off the field that prepare our students for life. Matt Tanney '05 Wabash College The corporate partnership program is an opportunity to connect and strengthen the Director of Athletics relationship with your business and Wabash College. The diverse array of marketing, and Campus Wellness promotional, and advertising options through the partnership program can create powerful synergies between our respective organizations, and reach a broad audience Allen Center through multiple mediums. 601 Milligan Street Crawfordsville, IN 47933 I look forward to further discussing all of the ways we can collaborate in the coming year.

  • Planning Depauw: Campus Conversations on Our Future Begin
    MAGAZINE DEPAUW PLANNING DEPAUW: Campus Conversations on our Future Begin F A L L 2 0 0 9 A message from President Brian W. Casey Greetings from the DePauw University campus, As I write, it is a beautiful midsummer day in Greencastle, and our community is eagerly awaiting the August influx of more than 700 young men and women comprising the large and talented Class of 2013. Many of them are alumni legacies – about one in six of those students will carry on direct family histories at this great institution. Several became acquainted with DePauw at the urging of friends or acquaintances who at one time called our campus home, and others were directly recommended to our Office of Admission by DePauw alumni. To those of you who helped bring these students to DePauw, ’10) (Photo: Alex Turco I extend my deepest gratitude. Unlike many of our peer schools, DePauw is fortunate to have fulfilled its admission goal for this fall’s incoming class. Economic challenges continue, however, to shape the plans of many potential college students. Alumni assistance with recruitment has never been more critically important than it is today. If you know young people who would benefit from the DePauw experience – no matter when they will begin their college search – I strongly urge you to bring them to the attention of our Office of Admission. We are eager to hear from you, and I hope that you will take a few minutes to complete and mail the postage-paid postcard included with this message, or to talk to one of our admission staff members by phoning 765-658-4006 or 800-447-2495.

Classmate News As per usual, we begin with this topic. We received this very nice note from Larry Landis: Earl & Duane, Just for the record, classmate Steve Claffey has given leadership, time and more to the Crooked Creek pantry over time, not just on Wabash Day(s). Most recently he led a mini-fundraiser to buy a much-needed large panel van for the pantry to assist in transporting an astonishing variety of donated and purchased commodities. Rumor has it that Steve has had more fun driving the van than at any time since getting his driver’s license! Great message! Many thanks to Steve for his contributions and to Larry for sharing this information. Senior Bench Here is a link to an article on the Senior Bench we received from the Alumni Office. I must admit that I never did understand, during my four years on campus, the protocol for painting the bench, but it was always interesting to see the latest decoration. I hope you enjoy the article and that it brings back wonderful memories. D3football Article on Wabash As many of you know, this fall has been a challenging one for the entire Wabash community.
