New Position Focused On Young Alumni What A Doll
Your Office of Alumni Engagement is excited to have transitioned Justin Latawiec ’17 into the new assistant director of young alumni engagement position. As a young alumnus of Carroll, he will bring fresh perspective on how we engage with students while they are on campus, helping their transition as they settle into careers and begin establishing themselves as young alumni. Stay tuned to carrollu.edu/alumni/events for upcoming young alumni programming including networking, social activities and personal / professional development. (While we define ‘young alumni’ as having graduated within the last 10 years, all alumni are welcome to join).
This little guy dates to the 1920s and was recently gifted to the Carroll University archives, by Sue (Graaskamp) Martin ’60.

Sue’s family has a pretty extensive history with the university. As she recalled, the doll was a gift from her father, Oliver Graaskamp ’29 to her mother, Alison (Caldwell) Graaskamp ’27 while they both attended school here. She remembers the doll being called Peter and he certainly looks ready for action on the football field. The Graaskamps had a full house at Carroll; Oliver’s brothers Lester Graaskamp ’18, Clifford W. Graaskamp ’20 and Arnold R. Graaskamp ’22. attended Carroll, as did his sister Jeannette E. Graaskamp ’24. Their father, Sue’s grandfather, also attended Carroll as a nontraditional student in the 1940s.
Peter dates to the 1920s and now has a home in the Carroll archives.
