One of my more frequent contacts is Paul Robinson. He and I have stayed in touch over the years. More recently we’ve met up in Phoenix, where Robbie resides, on winter trips Mary Ann and I’ve taken to AZ. We’ve had a great time reliving our Wabash days and, in the process, boring the heck out of our wives.  \nBoth Robbie and I enjoyed our Wabash days. Somehow, those recollections got funnier, more detailed, and greatly embellished since 1967!  \nI had the pleasure of meeting two of Robbie’s grandsons, both Wallies, at Homecoming in recent years. I was curious to see thru Robbie’s eyes, the Wabash of 1967 and the Wabash of today. He was kind enough to prepare this reflection.  \nThe Legacy Continues  \nDuane and Earl,  \nThanks so much for your Class Newsletters. I always look forward to their arrival.  \nI have two grandsons at Wabash. Both hail from Billings, Montana, where my daughter Kim and her husband have lived for over 25 years. Paul Haesemeyer is a Senior this year. And his brother Wade is a Junior. Paul, a Phi Delt, is 7th in his class. Wade, a Lambda Chi, is 4th in his class. Both are doing well, unlike their Grandfather 50 years ago.  \nNeedless to say, I am ecstatic that they are attending Wabash, but I was stunned when they chose Wabash. It was a total surprise to me. I admit to pushing for Wabash as a Grandpa. We had family pictures taken in Wabash sweatshirts when they were little. And when Wade, in the 7th grade, mind you, told his Mom that he was worried about college, my daughter shoveled him off to me. And all I knew what to do was to do some sort of book study on selecting colleges. And here is where I got lucky. I chose Loren Pope's book “Colleges That Change Lives”. It discusses “...40 schools that will change the way you think about colleges  ” ; and it did. So Wade and I went plowing through the book, 2 schools per week on Skype. And then his older brother Paul and I went through the book, and I just finished up with their sister Kate, who is a Junior in highschool. I feel like I am a co-author of the book, after going through it 3 times.  \nBecause college costs are staggering, scholarships became a dominating factor. And here is where Wabash came through, in spades! For that I was extremely grateful. It reinforces the fact that Wabash has always been there for me over the years; for that, I am her loyal son.  \nThis year, Paul graduates in May. And I hope I can experience that, and compare it tomy graduation days. What I don’t envy is that Paul has orals (1 hour) coming up in a week. But he doesn’t seem worried about it like I did. Comps seem to be much more civilized today. For one thing, they are in January, and not in the Spring. So they don’t ruin your entire Senior year, like they did in our time.  \nOne thing that seems constant between then and now is fraternity pledge-ship. I hated pledge-ship and my grandsons also hated it. I guess some things never change. But both, now, embrace their fraternity life.  \nOverall, I think the education at Wabash is better today than in our day. Today, students have a myriad of opportunities to study abroad, as well as being exposed to a number of summer internships, albeit non-paying. My grandson Paul had 2 summer non-paying internships-one in Massachusetts 2 years ago, and one in Santa Fe, New Mexico last summer. The Santa Fe opportunity vanished however when Covid-19 arrived. Incidentally, Paul had a Wabash Scholarship in Massachusetts, so he wasn’t broke all the time. Only Wabash would have a scholarship for non-paying summer internships. Incidentally that scholarship was set up by Mike Dill, a strong Wabash advocate. Paul was grateful for that significant stipend. Wade has just shipped off to New York for this semester. He’ll have a ","cbCainbfohCsbqjR","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainbfohCsbqjR","pdf",1486102,"English","# Class of 1967\n## Class Agents\n## The Legacy Continues\n## Classmate Comments on “Regrets”","[{\"question\":\"What does the letter say about reconnecting with fellow alumni?\",\"answer\":\"The author explains that while traveling, he tries to connect with Wabash alumni, mentioning regular contact with Paul Robinson and meeting up in Phoenix for winter trips.\"},{\"question\":\"How did the author influence college selection for his grandsons?\",\"answer\":\"He describes pushing for Wabash and using Loren Pope’s book “Colleges That Change Lives” as a guide, working through the schools with Wade and later continuing with other family members.\"},{\"question\":\"What role did scholarships play in choosing Wabash?\",\"answer\":\"The letter states that because college costs are high, scholarships became dominant, and Wabash helped significantly through support for non-paying internships via a scholarship set up by Mike Dill.\"}]","Class of 1967 - Class Agents | PDF",11]
