I’m planning a story for the spring issue about alumni serving in the military, especially those in Iraq or Afghanistan and other far-flung spots on the globe. If you or someone you know has an interesting story to tell about current military service, please e-mail me at jsstarnes@widener.edu or call 610-499-4246. I look forward to hearing from you!

Calling All Widener Alumni in the Military
October 29, 2009Two New Statues at Old Main
October 26, 2009
Two new bronze statues now stand in the front lawn of Old Main. My original plan was to publish photos of these on the back of the upcoming fall magazine, with a short accompanying story, but another big breaking story fell into my lap — you’ll have to wait until the magazine comes out to see it. You can, however, read about the two statues, and a third one in University Center, in What’s Up, the online campus newsletter. Here Larry Welker, co-owner of Chester’s Laran Bronze Inc., guides the statue entitled Homecoming into place on Tuesday, Oct. 13. – Sam Starnes, Editor
