1992 – Spring ’22 Class Letter
Greetings, Class of 1992!
Hey, Class of 1992!
This is an important year for us…it’s our BIG 3 – 0 Reunion!! We need to get as many of us back on campus as possible because how fun would that be?? I don’t know about you, but I’m a little bit shocked that we’re old enough to be the 30th Reunion class because we just had our five-year a couple of years ago! …and those were the old people! LOL!
This is a reminder to mark your calendars…June 23-26, 2022…Alumni Weekend in Ripon. Please plan to join us. More details about Alumni Weekend will come from the College and registration for the weekend events opens April 1st, but here’s a preview of what is planned:
Friday, 24 June 2022
- Doc Weiske ’50 Memorial Golf Scramble
- Lunch and Wine Tasting
- Campus Tour
- Faculty Talks
- 1851 Awards Dinner & Program – Friday – Congratulations to BRAD ALBERTS ’92 for being selected as a 2022 Distinguished Alumnus!
Saturday, 25 June 2022
- Greek Socials
- “That Was Then” Storytelling Session
- Class March and State of the College
- 1992 Class Reunion Celebration – Saturday in the MLK Lounge (Harwood Memorial Union)
To help you plan, room blocks are available at the Heidel House (Green Lake, 920-807-0300) and Cobblestone Suites (Ripon, 920-748-5500), but you have to call for the Alumni Weekend rate. Check out ripon.edu/lodging/ for other lodging options. On-campus lodging registration will be available April 1, 2022 at alumni.ripon.edu.
We want to hear from you! We love to hear what everyone is doing so please share all your exciting news with BONNI, ERIN, and myself (or send it on to the Office of Constituent Engagement…they’ll get us the information). Here are a few exciting updates we received:
BRAD ALBERTS ’92 of Dallas Texas was recently written about in D Magazine about his tenure as the CEO of the Dallas Stars. Read the article here.
TARA LACHAPELL ’92 is the Director of Enterprise Applications at St. Norbert College.
GEOFF GUEVARA-GEER ’92 of Ripon, Wisconsin, associate professor of Spanish at Ripon College, had an article published in the November 2021 issue of the journal Chasqui, meaning an Inca messenger, in Volume 50, Number 2.
There’s a lot of exciting stuff happening on campus. You can check it out at ripon.edu/news. There are posts about current students and faculty and even retired professors. Here’s an update from one of my favorites…Dr. Woolley P’92! He has a new book being published in March 2022, it details how he believes the modern U.S. Army was created. The book was inspired by one of the courses he taught at Ripon, American Military Instructions.
Before I wrap up this Class Letter, I want to thank everyone that has supported the College this past fiscal year, especially those who supported the Ripon Fund and the #OneDayRally. Let’s make this the best fundraising year for the Class of 1992 since we graduated! Please consider donating in honor of our 30-year Class Reunion, any amount makes a difference. Let’s make an impact! You will hear more about our Class Gift efforts from KATE BURRALL JUSTIC ’92 who has graciously agreed to help lead the Class Gift effort. (FYI – #OneDayRally 2022 is scheduled for Wednesday, April 27.)
Here’s your to-do list:
- Make travel plans to be in Ripon for Alumni Weekend
- Share your updates
- Make a donation to Ripon in honor of our 30th Class Reunion
See you in June, Class of ’92!!
Sincerely,
