Quad View: As seen from the Alumni Office

One of our very own is going to the Olympics again!  Hunter Kemper (’98) was a very successful triathlete at MSD and has gone on to represent the US in the Olympics twice.  Hopefully the third time’s the charm!  (As an aside, not only is Hunter an incredibly gifted athlete, he also routinely smokes the competition in fantasy sports, to which I can personally attest).  Here is one newspaper’s blurb about Hunter:

Triathlon

Hunter Kemper, the 32-year-old athlete from Colorado Springs, Colo., earned the last of three berths on the U.S. team by finishing well ahead of his top rival for that spot, Andy Potts, at the Hy-Vee Triathlon in West Des Moines, Iowa, on Sunday.

“It’s tremendous,” Kemper said. “This is what we live for. I’m a very blessed boy.” http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/olympics/2008012041_oly23.html

The other news item came this past Friday.  There had been some concern among alumni about a change in how Greek organizations lounges would be recognized.  Dr. Hatch emailed Greek alumni on Friday to announce that in addition to the special plaques that had been designed for each lounge, they would also get a set of Greek letters too.   If you are Greek and did not receive that email, let me know (chapmaea@wfu.edu) so we can correct your email address in the records system and get the letter to you as intended.
