Stay warm, ‘mates!

We have a few updates for everyone this month so off we go:

First, our pending 10-year reunion! We already have 5 classmates registered: Chris Beymer, Jason Cantu, John Dustman, Zach Eichel, Michael Einterz, Michael Ruffing, and Ryan Thornberry. Awesome work, fellas! We now have 17% of our self-imposed attendance goal (41). Well on our way!

Again, the dates are JUNE 5-7. If you wish to check out more info, or even register, you can find all details right here: http://www.wabash.edu/alumni/reunion/schedule

Real quick, our class is making good headway on the Annual Fund as well but we have added just a single name to the Honor Roll since our last newsletter. Regardless, continued thanks to the following 27 men:

Nate Bell, Eric Bright, Beau Browning, Jason Cantu, John Dustman, Zach Eichel, Michael Einterz, Ryan Feeback, Greg Fulmer, Justin Jannuzzi, Paul Jansen, Bobby Love, Drew McCoy, Brock Medsker, John Meyer, Dane Musil, Josh Petruniw, David Pryzbylski,

Our goal of class donors is 63 and if we get there, all the reunion attendees will enjoy an open bar during the Saturday night event! Please visit https://www.wabash.edu/giving/give to make your donation today.

Now, a few updates on happenings in Crawfordsville:

The inaugural lacrosse season as a varsity sport began on February 14th! What has been a club team ever since the late 90s has grown in popularity and now is set to compete on a higher level.

Have you heard about the new student housing project? Have you seen it? Check this out, it’s a live webcam that is streaming the entire project. If you’re interested, you can check in any time right here: http://www.wabash.edu/news/displaystory.cfm?news_ID=10472

More awards for our faculty! Professor of chemistry and Dean of the College Scott Feller was named the 2015 winner of the Thomas E. Thompson Award, recognizing outstanding contributions and excellence in research in the field of membrane structure and assembly.

More record-setting athletic performances! Jack Belford’16 broke his own school record while winning the 500-yard freestyle at the 2015 NCAC Swimming & Diving Championships.

CLASS UPDATES

Wabash also now has its first-ever electronic music minor! Luke Walker’15 created and crafted classes to create this new minor and was of course featured at the school’s first-ever Concert of Electronic Music. More info about these stories can be found here:http://www.wabash.edu/news/displaystory.cfm?news_ID=10484

Last, Wabash is in the process of updating its alumni records. Please log into Alumni eServices (http://www.wabash.edu/alumni/eservices) to provide your most current information. This will help ensure that you are connected to not just the college, but to the rest of the class as your class agents work to keep everyone in the loop.

Again, thank you for reading! Be on the lookout for another letter next month.

Wabash Always Fights!

Michael Ruffing & Jason Cantu

Greg Fulmer: “After Wabash, I moved to Seattle to attend the University of Washington’s graduate program (and to become a Seahawks season ticket holder). While earning my PhD in inorganic chemistry, I met my future wife and fellow chemist, Liz. We got married in 2010, and we later moved to Saint Joseph, MI for work. I’m currently employed at Whirlpool Corporation, and we just celebrated our daughter’s 2nd birthday. Life is good. See everyone at the reunion!”

Justin P. Jannuzzi: Since graduating Wabash, Justin has earned a Master’s Degree in Sport Leadership from Virginia Commonwealth University, and is pursuing a career in college athletic administration. Currently, Justin is a major gift fund raiser for the Duke University Athletic Department. He and his wife, Jessica, married in 2013, reside in Durham, NC with their beloved dog, Toby, and are expecting their first child this August.

Abe Lucas: “I’ve been in Hong Kong about two years now, doing IT product development for an insurance company. Lots of opportunities for experiencing new things, as you might imagine. I’ve joined the company dragon boat team, which is basically a 17 man crew that races giant canoes through open water. Also last November I finished my first (and probably last) 100km race, which was an amazing experience, and painful. It’s looking very likely that I’ll be able to join the reunion this summer.”
