THE MAGIC AT MONMOUTH

T

here is magic at Monmouth College.

One of the definitions of “magic” in my Webster’s New World Dictionary of the American Language is “any mysterious, seemingly inexplicable or extraordinary power or influence.”

That definition may apply to Harry Potter, David Copperfield, Penn and Teller, or other magicians, but not totally to the magic that is Monmouth.

Monmouth Magic is not mysterious.

Monmouth Magic is not inexplicable.

their magic is much more powerful and lasting. Monmouth Magicians work their wonder in the human mind and the human heart — in the confidence they stoke, in the breadth of knowledge they share, in the depth of understanding they nurture, in the possibilities they help others see and seize.

The Magic of Monmouth is the arc of lives changed for the better.

“Do You Believe in Magic?” asks the classic song from The Lovin’ Spoonful.

Do I believe in magic?

But Monmouth Magic is most definitely extraordinary in its power and influence.

The makers of Monmouth Magic don’t wear pointy hats. Instead, they wear lab coats and athletic gear. They wear academic regalia and business attire. They wear food service and facilities uniforms.

I believe in the magic of learning, of caring, of commitment to something larger than ourselves, of seeking to make the lives of others better.

In other words, I believe in the Magic of Monmouth. And I know you do, too.

Nor do the makers of Monmouth Magic wave magic wands. They use 3-D printers and potters’ wheels. They use virtual reality headsets. They build stage sets and combine words to evoke beauty and meaning. They put before us the far reaches of time and space and the inner depth of the human soul.

With thanks,

Monmouth Magicians don’t pull rabbits from hats or make objects levitate. No,

CAMPUS NEWS Monmouth College Presidential Search Committee named A 10-member search committee has been named to help select the next president of Monmouth College.

The nine individuals were appointed by Ralph R. Velazquez Jr., vice chair of the Monmouth Board of Trustees and chair of the College’s Presidential Search Committee.

Velazquez said that the Board of Trustees of the liberal arts college plans to elect Monmouth’s next president in early 2024; the College’s 15th president is expected to assume office in summer 2024.

Monmouth’s next president will succeed Clarence Wyatt, who has been president since July 1, 2014.

In addition to Velazquez, the search committee includes trustees Christine Beiermann Farr ’90, Mahendran Jawaharlal ’86, Brad Nahrstadt ’89 and Nancy Snowden; faculty members Saadullah Bashir of business and economics and Audra Goach of chemistry and chair of the Faculty Senate; student representative, Luis Castillo; and two staff members — Vice President of Development and College Relations Hannah Maher and Vice President of Finance and Business Holly Tharp.

Monmouth ranked among top 30 colleges for social mobility Monmouth College is one of the best colleges in the country when it comes to providing students a path to social mobility.

In the 2024 issue of the U.S. News & World Report’s Best Colleges guide, Monmouth is ranked No. 29 among National Liberal Arts Colleges in the category “Top Performers on Social Mobility.”

The guide’s social mobility ranking evaluates a school’s graduation rates of students who receive a federal Pell Grant compared to those students who did not receive one. Students who receive a Pell Grant display exceptional financial need as determined by the U.S. Department of Education when the student files the annual Free Application for Federal Student Aid application.

Among Monmouth’s freshman class, 45% of the students received a Pell Grant. Overall, 37% of the College’s student body received a Pell Grant.

Nathalie Roy and Bob Simmons are pictured at Monmouth’s Fox Classics Lecture in 2022, which Roy presented.

Classics program receives $175,000 NEH grant The College has received a major grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities to help U.S. teachers instruct their students about everyday life in ancient Greece.

The grant was the brainchild of classics professor Bob Simmons and Louisiana high school classics teacher Nathalie Roy. The NEH grant will fund Simmons’ and Roy’s application to hold a summer institute titled “The Ancient Olympics and Daily Life in Ancient Olympia: A Hands-On History.” The event for K-12 educators will be held July 7-20, 2024, on Monmouth’s campus. More than two dozen teachers from around the nation are expected to attend.

“It will allow them to learn some hands-on things that they can teach in their classes,” said Simmons, who will focus on the Olympics portion of the institute. Roy, who teaches at Glasgow Middle School in Baton Rouge, will

address daily life topics, and there will be other instructors, as well.

Monmouth named to Money magazine’s ‘2023 Best Colleges’ Monmouth College has been named one of Money magazine’s “2023 Best Colleges.” The ranking is based upon a school’s affordability, quality and student outcomes. A total of 2,400 colleges and universities were eligible for the ranking, and it was given to only about 700 four-year schools.

“While no ranking is perfect, it is always gratifying whenever an independent organization recognizes Monmouth’s efforts to provide an affordable, quality college education to young people,” said President Clarence Wyatt. “Monmouth has a proud tradition of being a college of high opportunity and high achievement, and this ranking affirms that work.”

Members of Monmouth’s communication studies department include, from left, Reginald Bell, Shweta Srivastava, Chris Goble, Trudi Peterson, Ethan Hager and Lori Walters.

‘COMMutopia’ department earns top national ranking from NCA Every first-year Monmouth student takes at least one course from an academic department judged to be the best in the nation.

The College’s communication studies department was recently named the recipient of the National Communication Association’s prestigious Rex Mix Award, which is presented annually to the top small liberal arts college undergraduate program in the United States.

“The areas of our curriculum that we emphasized in our application materials included our long-standing speech assistant program and civil dialogue in our basic COMM 101 course,” said professor Trudi Peterson, who chairs the department. “We also promoted our

MONMOUTH COLLEGE MAGAZINE

junior-level course that emphasizes vocational discernment and career preparation, and our ability to collaborate with colleagues across campus on interdisciplinary programs.”

The national award came down to two big factors, according to professor Shweta Srivastava.

“One was the deliberation assignment in COMM 101,” she said. “The other was what we like to call our department — ‘COMMutopia.’ It offers people a safe space to communicate and a safe space for our diverse students. And it’s not just the space, it’s the spirit.”

COMM 101, called “Fundamentals of Communication,” is a course that all first-year Monmouth students take, either during their fall or spring

semester. But the department doesn’t take the traditional approach to teaching a course that involves a good deal of public speaking.

Rather than throwing new students into a moment when they’re standing alone in front of a class, Monmouth faculty take a different tack.

“The first assignment we do in COMM 101 isn’t a speech — it’s a deliberation of a civic issue,” said Srivastava. “The students read several different perspectives of the issue in preparation for a small-group discussion. More than 90% of our students tell us it’s one of the most mature discussions they’ve ever had in their lives. They ask, ‘When are we going to do this again?’”

CAMPUS NEWS ‘Face of Monmouth’ Hucke named Student Laureate of the Lincoln Academy Monmouth College has seen many students progress from participants in its College For Kids summer enrichment program to actual Monmouth students.

Now, one of those College For Kids alumni has received one of Monmouth’s highest honors.

Lillian Hucke ’24, who attended College For Kids from her hometown of Aledo, Illinois, has been named Monmouth’s recipient of the Abraham Lincoln Civic Engagement Award, thereby becoming a Student Laureate of the Lincoln Academy of Illinois. Student Laureates are honored for their overall excellence in curricular and cocurricular activities. Hucke’s campus involvements are many — so many, in fact, that she seems to show up everywhere.

“The softball team calls me ‘the face of Monmouth’ — they like to joke about it,” said Hucke, who will suit up for her fourth season with the Fighting Scots next spring.

Although Hucke knew her way around campus from her College For Kids days, it still took a tour as a prospective student for her to decide where to attend college. As a Scot Ambassador, she’s now the one giving campus tours of her own. Then, if it fits, that includes the summer months, she lives relatively close to campus.

Another significant part of Hucke’s time is given to the women’s fraternity Pi Beta Phi, which she currently serves as vice president of recruitment.

Pevitz, Rathgeb honored by ZBT During the course of his Monmouth studies, Corey Pevitz ’24 has applied more than once for a scholarship from his Zeta Beta Tau

This spring, the process grew a little more lengthy, and that’s because the ZBT Foundation was targeting Pevitz for something special.

The process reached its conclusion this summer at a restaurant in Naperville, Illinois, where alumnus and ZBT brother Jeffrey Bakker ’90 presented Pevitz with a check for $17,500 — the largest scholarship the foundation has ever awarded to a student.

One of Pevitz’s fraternity brothers at Monmouth, Ethan Panganiban ’25, received a $7,500 scholarship from the ZBT Foundation.

At the fraternity’s national convention this summer in New York, Jake Rathgeb ’23 received the prestigious Roswell “Buddy” Messing Award for ZBT’s most outstanding individual brother. As a chapter, Monmouth earned the Lee Dover Award for Outstanding General Chapter Programming and the Joseph E. Glaser Award for excellence in philanthropy.

For the latter award, Northwestern University and the University of Central Florida had combined to win 20 of the past 25 years.

ZBT sponsors antisemitism talk They didn’t know it at the time, but earlier in

2023, the brothers of Monmouth’s Zeta Beta Tau fraternity scheduled an antisemitism program that became very much tied to current international events.

Thanks to a ZBT heritage grant the College’s Delta Lambda chapter received, the fraternity hosted speaker Alexander Katz on Nov. 5. The event, scheduled long before the Israel-Hamas war began Oct. 7, was free and open to the public.

Katz is a training and recruitment manager at URBN Playground, with a doctoral degree in educational leadership and administration from the University of Hartford. He’s also the adviser for the Eta Omicron chapter of ZBT at Quinnipiac University.

The speaker is the son of Martin Katz ’72, who during his time as a Monmouth student was president of the fraternity chapter that eventually became the Delta Lambda chapter of ZBT. Titled “Antisemitism: Past and Present,” Katz’s presentation not only reviewed and analyzed past antisemitism experiences but also took a look at the current and future landscape of the issue.

Founded in 1898 as the first Jewish fraternity, part of ZBT’s philanthropy focuses on uplifting and supporting the Jewish community.

MONMOUTH HOMECOMING Relationships at center of memorable celebration

BY BARRY MCNAMARA It all comes back to relationships.

During Monmouth College’s Homecoming weekend, that was the message shared publicly by award recipients and privately in countless moments across campus as “forever friends” reunited on the campus were their relationships were born.

One of the alumni who returned to campus even wrote a song about it.

Singer/songwriter Ross Clayton — known to his 2012 Monmouth classmates as Ross Donnan — presented a free concert Friday night, singing a few of the songs he performed last spring on NBC’s The Voice. Clayton also sang his original tune, “Memory’s Edge,” which he wrote based on a Monmouth moment.

“It’s good to be back here,” he told the audience at the start of his one-hour concert. “It’s been a decade. This stage here is the first place I ever performed.”

Earlier, Clayton led his band members on a mini-tour of campus.

“I can’t tell you how fun is it to be back here,” he said. “It’s easy to see people and the memories come flooding back. I’d show the band spots around campus, and they were like, ‘How much trouble did you get into in this dorm?’ I’m so happy to be back here.”

‘RELATIONSHIPS ARE EVERYTHING’ Clayton’s sentiment was shared by the scores of alumni who returned for the weekend, which coincided with the first fall-like weather of the season.

An alum who was making his second visit to campus of the year addressed the issue of relationships head-on.

“That invitation changed my life,” said Don “Mac” McKinley ’50 of the opportunity to form the Illinois Gamma chapter of the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity in the spring of 1948. “I learned the importance of deepening positive relationships.”

McKinley, who was also back in May for SigEp’s 75th anniversary celebration, was referring to the bonds he formed with his fraternity brothers, but he also began a relationship at Monmouth

that turned into a 68-year marriage to his 1950 classmate, Joyce Chatten.

McKinley was inducted into the Fraternity and Sorority Hall of Fame, and one of the other Order of Omega inductees — Hilary Hawkinson Stott ’07 — also married a Monmouth student (Jacob Stott ’09). The third inductee was John Courson ’64.

Monmouth marriages were a theme of the weekend, as all three M Club Hall of Fame inductees met their spouse on campus — Michael Blodgett ’11 (Chelsey Widdop ’13), Kendra James ’08 (Brett Peurach ’08) and Luke Reschke ’09 (Shannon Turczyn ’09).

Turczyn even presented her husband for induction.

In his remarks Saturday morning, Blodgett addressed the relationships that Monmouth students form with their professors, coaches and mentors.

“You saw the potential in me, even when I may not have fully seen it in myself,” he said.

“Your guidance, expertise and relentless pursuit of excellence have not only shaped me as an athlete, but as a person. You taught me

the importance of character and the value of hard work. Your influence extends far beyond the field, and I am honored to have had the privilege of learning from each of you.”

The night before, several individuals were honored during the College’s Alumni Impact Awards. One of them was Roy Sye ’13, recipient of the Young Alumnus Award, who married his Monmouth classmate, Colleen Sinclair ’13.

“I am a firm believer that relationships are everything in life,” he said. “Relationships build trust, and once there is trust, anything is achievable. Ninety percent of the collegiate experience happens outside of the stereotypical classroom setting, which means there is a tremendous amount of time to build and strengthen relationships.”

Sye said it was relationships that defined his collegiate experience, rather than specific grades he earned on exams.

“The relationships I made at Monmouth allowed me to take risks, ask questions ... and instilled confidence in me as I navigated a new career in the business world,” he said. “There is a debt here that I can never repay.”

The other honorees were Brig. Gen. Chris Lawson ’88, Hall of Achievement; retired John Deere executive Richard Yahnke ’66, Distinguished Alumnus; worldwide wildfire consultant Chuck Bushey Jr. ’73, Distinguished Service; political science professor Andre Audette, Hatch Academic Excellence Award for Distinguished Teaching; and the Dew family, Family of the Year.

Within the Dew family were several Monmouth marriages, including Clairus Dew ’38 and Elizabeth Johnson ’41, who were married for 76 years, and the alumnus who spoke on behalf of the family, Larry Dew ’66, who married his classmate, Judy Burmeister.

Audette spoke about relationships from the other end of the spectrum, presenting the faculty side.

“We want our students to know they are loved and supported,” said Audette, listing that objective as one of five he gleaned from the book All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten.

Others, he said, were indulge your curiosity and sense of fun, explore everything, sharing is caring and include everyone.

Lawson referenced that support, which was critical to him in his formative years.

“My family came from nothing,” he said. “But I was invested in by the faculty and the coaches.

I was surprised someone was that interested in me.”

Influential members of the campus community for Lawson included professors James De Young and Bridget Keefe, coach Roger Haynes and mentor Steve Bloomer ’83.

Reschke detailed how professors such as Ken McMillan, Mike Connell and Dick Johnston not only kept him on track academically but showed up for his track meets to cheer him on, and Bushey gave credit to faculty members who were on campus a half-century ago.

“Monmouth College is where I began the groundwork for my professional career,” said.

“In particular, Dr. (Milton) Bowman, thank you for getting the ball rolling. Man is a social being, and I’m thankful for the social skill set that was provided by Monmouth College.”

OTHER HOMECOMING EVENTS During a Friday afternoon ceremony at Monmouth Cemetery, a headstone remembering Champion Miller and his wife, Juda, was unveiled. Regina Johnson, director of the College’s Champion Miller Center for Student Equity, Inclusion and Community, researched Miller as a Monmouth student. She said two words came to mind at the fulfillment of what has been a 23year journey — “overwhelmed and surreal.”

“I’m floored and humbled by the response to the headstone project,” said retired College historian Jeff Rankin during his remarks. “This WINTER 2024 7

headstone is here to educate and inspire future generations.”

One of those generations was represented by a group of students from Monmouth’s Immaculate Conception School, which made up part of the crowd of more than 75 people. The ceremony was followed by the rededication of the Mellinger Office of Development and College Relations.

Slightly larger crowds turned out at April Zorn Memorial Stadium for a pair of traditional Homecoming events. At Friday’s Spirit Shout, the Homecoming court was announced. Izzy Gimm ’25, was named princess and Jackson Bergren ’25 was named prince. Vivica Graham ’24 was crowned queen, and Sencere Brent ’24 was crowned king.

Saturday afternoon, the Fighting Scots football team continued its pursuit of a Midwest Conference title, defeating Grinnell College 69-6 to improve to 3-2 on the season and 3-1 in the conference. Monmouth collected a schoolrecord 720 yards of offense.

On Saturday evening, the Concert Choir, Chorale and Chamber Choir gave “A Homecoming Concert: Featuring Music from the American Heartland” to an enthusiastic audience, and on Sunday music professor Solee Lee-Clark gave a recital to rededicate the Dahl Chapel and Auditorium’s Ardell Organ.

Ross Donnan ’12, who competed on NBC’s The Voice as Ross Clayton, gave a free concert in Dahl Chapel.

GREAT SCOTS: THE RESCHKE BROTHERS

Nothing runs like a Deere (except the Reschke brothers)

All Monmouth College graduates and John Deere employees, the Reschke brothers are, from left, are Ethan, Jordan, Luke, Shane and Josh.

STORY BY BARRY MCNAMARA PHOTOS BY KENT KRIEGSHAUSER

T

hankfully, when it came to their higher education experience, Monmouth College’s Reschke brothers took a break from green and yellow.

But it almost didn’t happen that way.

Josh Reschke ’07, Luke Reschke ’09, Shane Reschke ’12 and twins Ethan Reschke ’17 and Jordan Reschke ’17 all proudly wore the Kelly green of Geneseo (Illinois) High School. For Maple Leaf football games, the Green Machine add a healthy dash of yellow. They can easily be mistak-

en for the Green Bay Packers, right down to the “G” on their cheesehead-colored helmets.

Green and yellow are also the colors of John Deere Co., which is headquartered in Moline, a few miles west of Geneseo. All five Reschke brothers work for the giant international corporation, which manufactures agricultural machinery and other heavy equipment.

Josh is a global supply business manager for tires and wheels, Luke is a manufacturing engineer, and Shane is a supply management specialist. Ethan and Jordan are both material coordinators.

Sandwiched in between Geneseo High and John Deere was their college experience as Fight-

ing Scots, but who knows what would’ve happened if the oldest brother, Josh, had gone with his other college choice.

THE TRAILBLAZER “It was a last-minute decision to attend Monmouth,” said Josh, who returned to campus in October for Luke’s induction into the M Club Hall of Fame. “I was trying to play basketball, and I was being recruited by St. Norbert (College).”

Located in De Pere, Wisconsin (roughly five hours from Geneseo), and, at the time, members of Monmouth’s Midwest Conference, St. Norbert’s Green Knight athletes wear green and gold.

“At the end of July, I came to campus to meet

GREAT SCOTS: THE RESCHKE BROTHERS ‘TG’ (legendary Monmouth men’s basketball coach Terry Glasgow),” said Josh. “I just fell in love with the place.”

And he also came to a crucial realization.

“Why would I play basketball where my family couldn’t come and watch me?”

Soon, red-and-white Scots apparel could be found next to the green in the Reschkes’ wardrobes.

Josh made his remarks in the Huff Athletic Center fieldhouse, moments after the induction ceremony. On his official visit to campus, the Huff Center was still a work in progress.

“This part was just dirt,” he said. “We had to wear hardhats to walk around. You had to visualize what it would look like.”

The College felt right and had a bright future, and the geography was good, too, as Geneseo is just 45 minutes from Monmouth. That was not only good news for Josh, but for his parents, Allan and Kathy, who, respectively, ran a plastering business and the local Culver’s restaurant. They could squeeze in a drive to campus to see Josh while also being present for the many activities his younger brothers were doing on the home front.

“Staying close to home was an important part of it,” said Josh. “We’re pretty close to our parents.”

And that remains the case today. Kathy said her family’s weekly Sunday dinners typically have a crowd of at least 20 people.

“My dad comes, too,” she said. “We’re very fortunate that they’re all close by.”

Sixteen years after running his last race for Monmouth, Josh remains one of the top eight fastest Fighting Scots in the 400-meter dash. But at the Reschke dinner table, he only ranks third.

THE HALL OF FAMER The Huff fieldhouse would soon be home for the next Reschke brother, Luke. One can only imagine how many times the sprinter ran a lap around its 200-meter track during his illustrious career.

“I visited a few times to watch Josh play basketball,” said Luke. “I was really comfortable coming here. I talked with Coach (Roger) Haynes and with Coach (Steve) Bell.”

Luke would eventually play football for Bell, but not until his senior year. He also played some basketball for Glasgow, but it was in track and field, running for Haynes, where he made a name for himself, earning nine All-American honors and helping the Scots to a pair of top-three team finishes at the NCAA meet.

The first came at the 2007 outdoor meet, where Luke teamed with Josh to place second

Allan and Kathy Reschke host a weekly family dinner at their home outside Geneseo, Ill. “All the boys have young families now, but their mom and dad set the standard,” said former Monmouth track coach Roger Haynes. in the 4x400 relay, lifting Monmouth to a thirdplace team trophy. Earlier that year at the NCAA indoor meet, the brothers teamed for a fifthplace All-American finish.

At that year’s MWC outdoor meet, Josh and Luke were half of the winning 4x400 squad that set a conference record of 3:15.47. That time is still the record today, 16 years later. Luke’s ultra-fast meet record time of 46.75 in the 400, set three years later, was finally bested in 2023, although it remains the school record.

Haynes recalled Luke’s mindset the day before he ran that historic time: “I was standing with some other coaches, and Luke walked by me.

I asked him if he was going to take it easy and rest up for tomorrow. He just said, ‘No,’ and kept walking. The other coaches kind of looked at me.

But there was a national-caliber sprinter from Illinois College, and Luke didn’t want him to get a leg up.”

That type of competitive fire even burned in Allan, long after his days as a talented athlete at Geneseo High School.

“I remember going up to the Quad Cities to watch Josh and Luke run the uphill 400 they have up Brady Street before the Bix,” said Haynes. “It’s an extremely difficult race, and they wound up getting second and third behind an All-American

from Northern Iowa. I was talking to Al, and he said, ‘This is so much fun. I have trouble sleeping the night before big meets like this.’”

Kathy provided a reason Luke didn’t immediately make his way to the gridiron. A four-time state champion in the 1970s and ’80s, Geneseo was in the midst of a 15-year state playoff streak during Luke’s prep career. That included a run to the Class 5A state semifinal his senior year.

“I remember he said, ‘Mom, it’ll just never be better than playing for the Green Machine,’” she said.

Helping to change his mind as a senior was the fact that some of the Green Machine followed him to campus. Luke joined Adam Hoste ’12, Kevin Turner ’12 and B.J. Weber ’11 on that year’s roster and was a standout defensive back, making 15 tackles in the Scots’ NCAA playoff game against the University of St. Thomas.

And every day in practice, he went up against future NFL quarterback Alex Tanney ’11 and talented receiver Michael Blodgett ’11, who joined him in the Hall of Fame’s 2023 induction class.

“It was better than anything I could’ve ever dreamed,” said Luke. “I’ve got great memories of it all. I had the kind of coaches that I would want my kids to play for, and the friends I met here I’m still friends with.”

WINTER 2024 11

GREAT SCOTS: THE RESCHKE BROTHERS In addition to regularly seeing his parents in the stands, Luke recalled that several faculty members — particularly business professors Ken McMillan, Mike Connell and Dick Johnston — also attended his Fighting Scot events.

For a while, Luke considered pursuing professional sports, but not in track or football. Rather, with his flair for competition and speed, he flirted with the idea of becoming a NASCAR pit crew member. But, as his wife, All-American hurdler Shannon Turczyn Reschke ’09, said during her introduction of Luke at the Hall of Fame ceremony, he’s worked at Deere since two days following his last NCAA meet.

SHANE’S STORY Part of the group that made its way from Geneseo to Monmouth in the late 2000s was the middle Reschke brother, Shane, who was also a big part of the Scots’ success in track.

Shane, too, appreciated the support he received from his parents at all his competitions growing up and in college.

“They never missed a football game,” he said.

“And they’d drive eight hours to a track meet to watch me race for a couple of minutes.”

Or, in one case, to almost watch him run.

“I walked by Shane and I saw him warming up, and I said, ‘What are you doing?’ He said, ‘I’m not going to have us lose the final race of my career.’ So after not running that distance since February, he went out and ran a 49.5 split, and we won the race.”

“They were two minutes late to the 4x1 in Ohio,” said Shane of the 2011 NCAA meet. “They missed the whole thing.”

“They would work all day, and then get in the car and drive to wherever they needed to go,” recalled Haynes.

In addition to that national meet appearance, Shane was part of four relay squads that were provisional NCAA qualifiers. He was on four relay teams that won Midwest Conference titles, and the Scots were a perfect 8-for-8 in MWC championships while he was on the team, a statement that can also be made by Luke.

Haynes recalled the final race of Shane’s career, at the 2012 MWC outdoor meet.

“We were up at St. Norbert, and we’d pretty much won the meet by then,” he said of the 4x400, a squad that Shane had not been a part of during the outdoor season. “We had a couple kids sit out of the race. I walked by Shane and I saw him warming up, and I said, ‘What are you doing?’ He said, ‘I’m not going to have us lose the final race of my career.’ So after not running that distance since February, he went out and ran a 49.5 split, and we won the race.”

THE TWINS For one season, in 2013, there were no Reschke boys on the track team, but order was restored when Ethan and Jordan matriculated in fall 2013. Ethan went on to be an eight-time All-American, placing as high as second in the nation in the 400. Included among his 15 MWC titles was a 4x400 squad that equaled the mark Josh and Luke set.

“Some of my fondest memories are from Monmouth,” said Ethan. “I remember coming here when I was just a kid. And then as a student, the liberal arts experience offered more than I ever thought possible, and that’s something I definitely take into the workplace.”

Ethan recalled watching his two oldest brothers compete at the 2007 MWC meet, when the Scots scored a whopping 307.5 points to easily defend their title.

“I remember how dominant they were at the conference meet at Ripon,” he said. “In every event, it seemed, they finished first, second and third. That was a meet that stood out to me.”

His twin reiterated how important his parents have been in his and his brothers’ lives.

“You could always count on them if you needed anything,” said Jordan. “They always had something positive to say. At meets, I could always hear my dad’s whistle.”

Like his brothers, Jordan’s time at Monmouth was special to him.

“It’s just the memories and the friendships, like they’ve said, and everything you get taught here.

It was definitely a positive experience for me.”

GREAT SCOTS: THE RESCHKE BROTHERS

THEY’RE ALL RESCHKES: From left, Maddy, Beckham, Jordan, Lindsey, Emersyn, Reece, Shane, Kathy, Allan, Ethan, Joanna, Jett, Jenna, Bennett, Halle, Josh, Graham, Ella, Shannon and Luke.

FAMILY FOCUS AND WORK ETHIC “We loved that they were close by, and they could come home on weekends when they wanted to,” said Kathy. “We could even meet them in the middle, in Galesburg. I remember doing that one day when Luke called and said he needed some dress clothes.”

“I still stay in touch with them a fair amount,” said Haynes, a huge Rolling Stones fan who was listening in his office to the group’s new Hackney Diamonds album, which was released that day. “And this is appropriate for today, but Josh has become a big Rolling Stones fan, too. He called me one night to tell me he’d been at one of their Soldier Field shows and that he’d knocked over about 40 people to get a drumstick that Charlie Watts tossed to the crowd. I’m sure it’s in his man cave now.”

On another occasion, the three older brothers — all avid outdoorsmen — returned to campus to hear world-renowned hunter Tim Wells ’87 present the Wendell Whiteman Memorial Lecture.

Haynes called the brothers “five different kids,” but he noted two important similarities.

“Allan and I never dreamed all five boys would wind up at the same place. They’ve grown off of each other’s successes. Monmouth College met each of their needs individually — academically, athletically.”

In addition to Luke, two other brothers are married to Monmouth alumnae — Josh’s wife is the former Jenna Bean ’12 and Ethan married the track team’s 800-meter record holder, Joanna Podosek ’18.

Kathy is grateful for the role Monmouth College played in keeping the bar high for her sons.

“I’d talk to other parents about what was happening with their kids who went to college,” said Kathy. “As a parent, you just want it to go so well for them. After a month or so, I’d talk to each of the boys, and they seemed happy. And then you just go” — and with that, she made a Kathy Reschke fist pump.

Eventually, she was 5-for-5 on fist pumps.

“Allan and I never dreamed all five boys would wind up at the same place,” she said.

“They’ve grown off of each other’s successes.

All the boys have ceremony) and saw the boys all talking to their young families now, but their mom and dad set friends. I said to Allan, ‘It feels like home.’” the standard.”

WINTER 2024 13

After a renovation to the Ardell Organ this year, music faculty member Solee Lee-Clark said, “The organ is sounding the best it has since I came to Monmouth in 2017. It has always been a good-looking instrument, but now it also sounds great.”

College’s Ardell Organ restored and sounds (and looks) as good as new

BY BARRY MCNAMARA Log on to the Pipe Organ Database (pipeorgandatabase.org), and Monmouth College is represented. The top header on the school’s page reads “Schantz Organ Co. (Opus 6, 1946).”

The database’s “Status and Condition” header on that page about the College’s 77-year-old Ardell Organ can now receive a refresher — an update from “unknown,” to “as good as new,” thanks to a renovation of the instrument that was completed this year by Randall E. Karstens.

The Iowa City-based service and restoration technician finished his work in time for a Homecoming weekend concert. Monmouth music faculty member Solee Lee-Clark played a recital in Dahl Chapel and Auditorium featuring the music of William Byrd, G. H. Handel and Franz Liszt. It was followed by a talk by Karstens, who described the work needed for the “Status and Condition” upgrade.

SIGNS OF WEAR Karstens first began his focus on the Ardell

Organ in the fall of 2019 after hearing from LeeClark that “lots of issues were creeping up with the instrument, including dead notes.”

“I traveled down to see it, and that confirmed my suspicions of what was needed,” said Karstens. “I tendered a proposal for a two-stage work process.”

Chief among the issues was repairing leather pouches — quite a few of them, in fact. Every pipe in the organ has a pouch under it to control the air to that pipe, and Monmouth’s organ has more than 2,000 pipes.

In fact, during the previous restoration in 2003, which was funded by Robert Ardell ’62 and his wife, Lee, the number of pipes in the instrument was increased from 1,952 to more than 2,300.

Through the years, the leather pouches under the pipes begin to fail. The restoration begins with removing pouch boards, one of many steps to re-leathering the instrument. But before Karstens could get the project underway, COVID happened. The pandemic not only kept him off campus for several months, but it dis-

rupted the supply chain.

“I spent a lot of time on site,” said Karstens.

“This was already a bigger project due to the number of leather pouches that needed to be repaired. I had to unscrew a lot of screws and then screw them back in. And It became a more lengthy process due to COVID and to vendor issues.”

CELEBRATORY CONCERTS In 2003, a concert by a special guest — renowned organist David Schrader — celebrated the rededication of the Ardell Organ, just as the legendary organist Marcel Dupré had visited campus in 1946 to perform the inaugural concert.

This time, the honor went to Lee-Clark, an accomplished musician who in 2014 gave a solo performance at Weill Recital Hall in New York City’s Carnegie Hall.

“The organ is sounding the best it has since I came to Monmouth in 2017,” she said. “It has always been a good-looking instrument, but now it also sounds great.”

DONOR PROFILE THOMAS MARTIN ’72 THE BACKGROUND: Tom grew up in Moline, Illinois, and also spent time in Heidelberg, Germany, and Nigel, South Africa. He graduated from Monmouth with a degree in government and earned a master’s degree in human resource management from the University of Utah. Tom also worked in marketing for John Deere Co. for 27 years and today lives in Reno, Nevada.

THE GIFT: Tom has a streak of 14 years of consecutive giving and support of the College’s annual fund through a multi-year pledge commitment. That demonstrates his belief in the vitality of the liberal arts experience, in paying it forward for the next generation of students, and in the power of charitable support. “Think of what kind of world you want future generations to live in and what it is going to take to make that happen,” said Tom. “In a world of 8.1 billion people, helping a student afford a college education may not seem like much, but it means the world to that one student.

You can improve the future one person at a time. Give donating a try. You might like it!”

MONMOUTH MEMORIES: “I would say that the discipline I developed when it came to my study habits has helped me greatly over the years,” said Tom. “Hearing the viewpoints of others and learning about how other students grew up in ways different from my own broadened my understanding of the world.”

STORY TIME: “Since retiring, I have been doing a side hustle working as a standardized patient at the University of Nevada School of Medicine,” said Tom. “I enjoy being around young people and watching them grow from absolute novices to getting the right to put M.D. after their name. I admit my job is only the tiniest of cogs in that learning process, but I feel pride in doing my part.”

DONOR PROFILE CHARLES ’60 AND VIRGINIA RASSIEUR THE BACKGROUND: Following his graduation from Monmouth, Chuck received his divinity degree from the Princeton Theological Seminary. After serving two churches in Maryland for seven years, he returned to school, earning a doctorate in psychology from Claremont School of Theology. He worked in the latter field for more than a quarter century, including counsel to clergy and seminarians.

THE GIFT: The Rassieurs created a planned gift for the College, funding it early through a cash donation.

“We wanted to do it in our lifetime,” said Ginni. “We talked with our financial adviser, and we asked him, ‘Is it reasonable to do this?’ and ‘Should we do it now?’ He encouraged us to do it now, and he handled everything for us.” Chuck emphasized, “The most important lesson for young adults is that their integrity is their greatest asset.” With that in mind, the Rassieurs’ gift will fund a prize for an annual essay contest focusing on integrity.

MONMOUTH MEMORIES: “There were two major influences during my time at Monmouth,” said Chuck. “One of the requirements of the Bible major was that we had to do field work in a church. I asked Prof. (Charles) Speel if there was a Black church where I could do the work. I spent the semester at a Baptist church in Monmouth. It was an important experience for me to be the only white person sitting there on Sundays, and to meet the high school kids there.” The other influence was his participation in the Washington Semester Program his junior year. “That was a very, very important broadening experience for me,” he said.

STORY TIME: Chuck and Ginni were high school sweethearts, but the couple that’s now been married 63 years chose to go to different colleges. Ginni attended what is now known as Muskingum University in Ohio. “We support all four schools, including my graduate schools,” said Chuck. “They’re all very important to us.”

THE GIFT: The Sargents make a recurring gift to the College through payroll deduction.

“It comes right out of my check, and we get a statement at the end of the year,” said Tom. “We never actually have to worry about it. We don’t have to mail back any forms, so it’s nice to have that ease.”

MONMOUTH MEMORIES: Tom and Crysal met on campus during their freshman year at a fraternity-sorority exchange. “From that evening on, we started dating,” said Tom. “We got engaged as seniors, and we got married the July after Commencement.” Tom’s Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity experience helped him in other important ways, too. “SigEp helped me develop leadership skills,” he said. “I was placed in leadership roles, which I was not comfortable with initially, but by the end, I was chapter president. It developed a set of skills in me. I didn’t have that skill set prior to coming to college.”

STORY TIME: In the fall of 1987, Tom attended a gathering of recent alums, led by the late Safford Peacock, who at the time was chairman of the Monmouth College Board of Trustees. “He spoke about the importance of giving back to an institution,” said Tom. “He said it doesn’t matter how much you give, just that you begin a commitment to the institution. He also told us that continued commitment is important to the institution, not only because it impacts students, but because having a higher percentage of alumni support helps the institution secure funding from other sources. That was a new way of looking at things for me.”

BARBARA BOLON BYE ’64 PATRICIA BOLON ELMONE ’77 THE BACKGROUND: In the heyday of the Monmouth College Octopus Club — and when the legendary Bobby Woll ’34 was just a rookie head coach for the Fighting Scots — Bernie Bolon was a big man on campus. He and his future wife, 1939 classmate Rosemary Field, were a popular couple. Inspired by their parents’ fondness for their alma mater, sisters Barbara Bolon Bye ’64 and Patricia Bolon Elmone ’77 followed their parents to Monmouth. Like her mother, Barbara became a teacher, and the second portion of her career focused on special education. In between, she followed her father’s path in insurance, working for seven years for State Farm. Meanwhile, Pat was “Up, up and away with TWA,” enjoying her career with Trans World Airlines.

Midwest Journal of Undergraduate Research Stephen M. Bloomer ‘83 and Cheryl Youngren Bloomer Howard & Howard Attorneys, PLLC Howard & Howard Community Reinvestment Fund

THE GIFT: Barbara and Pat recently established the Bernard Dean and Rosemary Field Bolon Scholarship, which will provide perpetual financial assistance for select students each year, with preference given to incoming freshmen who participate in co-curricular activities. “We’re both retired, and we began really looking at the legacy we wanted to leave,” said Pat, who winters in Florida not far from her sister. “We wanted to do something to honor our parents. It all fell into place seamlessly. We were able to fund the scholarship through gifts of cash and stock contributions, and now that the scholarship is fully endowed, we’re looking forward to seeing it being awarded.”

Monmouth College Campus Garden James R. Bunn ‘68 and Alice Young Bunn ‘69 William G. Pyatt ‘75 and Brenda Pyatt

MONMOUTH MEMORIES: “We’re both very proud of them, and we loved them very much,” said Pat of her parents. “Monmouth College is where they fell in love, and we both loved our time at Monmouth, too.”

Monmouth College on the Road Charlie’s Charities Charles Courtney Jr. ‘57

STORY TIME: “One of my favorite pictures of the two of them at Monmouth is when they were voted by their classmates the May Queen and King,” said Barbara. “There’s a picture of them sitting on their thrones, and Mother is wearing a crown of flowers. It’s tipping on her head – it’s all cattywampus.”

RICHARD ’66 and LEE YAHNKE BACKGROUND: Dick’s Monmouth education served as a springboard to the success he experienced — first as a Navy line officer aboard the USS Massey with two overseas deployments in the 1960s, then throughout his 40-year marketing and management career with John Deere. He held a variety of management experiences in numerous marketing and manufacturing locations for the company, including an assignment as marketing manager for Australia and New Zealand. He retired in 2006 as vice president of Worldwide Agricultural Parts Marketing.

THE GIFT: A member of the Monmouth College Board of Trustees for 25 years, Dick and his wife, Lee, made a gift to establish the Yahnke Business and Economics Endowed Internship Fund, helping ensure that students seeking internships have the means to do so. The gift was made through IRA required minimum distributions, which “are a great way to avoid taxes and support worthy causes,” said Dick.

MONMOUTH MEMORIES: “An endowment for business internships will provide funding and accessibility for more students who simply could not consider an internship due to their financial limitations,” said Dick. “As the youngest of five, the first to attend college, with loving parents but limited financial ability, I was that student who relied on summer jobs and grants to pay for college.” Yahnke said he first heard about attending Monmouth from his teacher and coach, Keith Follett, who was the son-in-law of legendary Monmouth philosophy professor Sam Thompson.

STORY TIME: “Internships provide an opportunity for real-world practical business experience for students seeking business-related degrees,” said Dick. It’s encouraging to note that the first four internship recipients either have graduated or will graduate this spring and all are employed or have job offers. “The program is working,” said Dick. “Wackerle Center staff and business faculty are doing a great job of administering the program and encouraging deserving and qualified students to apply.”

DELETRA CROSS HUDSON ’92 THE BACKGROUND: Deletra Hudson, aka “The Financial Educator,” owns a financial and consulting firm in St. Louis, the same city where she grew up and attended Sumner High School, the oldest high school for African American students west of the Mississippi River. A bestselling and awardwinning author and speaker, her quarter century of financial experience includes working with corporations, municipalities, non-profit agencies, small businesses, churches and professionals.

THE GIFT: She has established the Deletra Cross Hudson Scholarship Fund to assist Monmouth’s minority students who are faced with financial challenges to continue their studies. “My goal is to get the scholarship endowed,” she said.

“Students are eligible to receive it after their first year. And there are academic requirements. We have to see that you have skin in the game. If money is the thing holding a student back, we want to make it so that money isn’t the thing.”

MONMOUTH COLLEGE MAGAZINE

MONMOUTH MEMORIES: Scholarships are important to Deletra because that’s how she became a Monmouth student herself. “Monmouth was the only predominantly white institution I applied to,” she said. “I’d always been good academically, and they gave me a large scholarship.” She was encouraged to re-engage with the College by staff member Mollie Williams Harrod ’07, and now she’s on the Alumni Board, helping to “assist with some of my peers getting involved with the College.”

STORY TIME: “I realized I’ve got do more,” she said of her financial advising. “I’m helping my clients to see the bigger vision. I want them to have a 100-year plan. That might seem like a large amount of time. A person might think, ‘One hundred years from now doesn’t affect me.’ But when I think of 100 years for me, that goes back to grandma and on to my children. All of that affects me. So my goal is to help people — and especially women business owners — bridge the gaps and help them build a legacy. That’s my passion.”

Three Scots now working in NFL There are now two former Fighting Scots coaching in the NFL after Rod Ojong ’13 was hired by the New England Patriots to serve as their defensive backs coach.

In addition to Ojong, the AFC East also features another Monmouth connection, Thomas Witty ’21, a player personnel assistant with the New York Jets. One of his main duties is to scout collegiate talent as the Jets prepare for the NFL Draft.

Ojong is a former teammate of Alex Tanney ’11, who was promoted for the second consecutive offseason by the NFC champion Philadelphia Eagles. Tanney is now the team’s quarterbacks coach.

During their college days, Ojong appeared in Tanney’s trick shot video, riding a bicycle and getting hit by a precise Tanney pass on his last throw of the video, which now has more than 4.4

million views.

In an article that called Tanney “a rising star” on the Eagles’ coaching staff, the team’s offensive coordinator last season, Shane Steichen (now head coach of the Indianapolis Colts), said of Tanney, “He gets it, you know what I mean? ...

Sharp. Very, very detailed. ... The way he teaches the game is second to none.”

Added Philadelphia’s head coach, Nick Sirianni, “He is super smart, super intelligent. He connects with the players. Playing for nine years in the NFL, he has this instant connection there.

He’s really worked to get everything he has.”

While Tanney is still coaching with his first team after his playing career, Ojong has moved around, sharpening his craft at a total of nine schools, including Monmouth. His two most recent stops were the University of Georgia and the University of Buffalo.

Scots win seven straight to finish season There aren’t too many football teams around the nation that close their season with a seven-game winning streak, especially in Division III, where all the playoff teams except the national champion end their successful campaigns with a loss.

But the Fighting Scots did just that, recovering from a 20-17 loss to Illinois College that ultimately kept them from winning the Midwest Conference to reel off the impressive streak, which included a pair of dramatic victories against Lake Forest and St. Norbert.

In Monmouth’s 16-14 win over Lake Forest, the Scots overcame what could’ve been a disastrous blocked punt in the final seconds by, on the very next play, blocking the Foresters’ attempt at a game-winning 32-yard field goal. Tevin Baker did the honors as Monmouth topped Lake Forest for the first time since 2018.

Two weeks later, the Scots played in their second straight Cousins Subs Lakefront Bowl by virtue of their runner-up finish in the MWC. Waiting for them in Wauwatosa, Wis., was a familiar foe – former league rival St. Norbert. The Scots and Knights had staged a trio of epic battles from 2017-19, and the bowl game would be no different. Monmouth trailed 14-0 in the second half but tied the game with 2:50 to play on a 20-yard run by quarterback Carter Boyer, capping a 97-yard drive. A fifth-year senior, Boyer had memorably led a similar drive to lift Monmouth to a 10-7 victory over St. Norbert in the 2019 MWC title game when he was a freshman.

The Scots got the ball back on a sack and fumble with 1:43 to play, and Boyer capped a short 28-yard TD drive with a 17-yard pass to Nate Thornton, giving Monmouth a 21-14 victory.

Sandwiched in between those games was a dominant performance in the Bronze Turkey Game. Monmouth topped Knox 42-7, extending its streak in the famous rivalry to 24 straight wins.

MONMOUTH COLLEGE MAGAZINE

A wild ending to Monmouth’s 16-14 victory over Lake Forest on Nov. 4 was capped by a game-clinching field goal block by Tevin Baker, and the Fighting Scots’ sideline couldn’t have been happier. Photographer Kent Kriegshauser captured the reaction.

In leading Monmouth to a 9-2 record, Boyer threw for 3,009 yards and 26 TDs. He also rushed for 449 yards and another eight scores and was named the first team All-MWC quarterback.

IN MEMORIAM

Sherman Smith ’72 Sherman Smith of Irvine, Calif., a member of the Monmouth College Board of Trustees and a champion of the Center for Science and Business, died Sept. 12, 2023.

“Sherm had battled various forms of cancer for many years,” said President Clarence Wyatt.

“His wife Diane told me of Sherm’s great pride in serving as a trustee of Monmouth College. That statement, from someone whose life was filled with accomplishment and service, is a great testament to the Board and to our College.”

The Smiths had recently made a $1 million deferred gift commitment to Monmouth in support of the College’s Light This Candle Campaign. It was the specific gift that pushed the campaign past its $75 million goal.

Smith was retired from his roles as owner, president and CEO of the Chambers Group, an environmental consulting firm that completed numerous multi-million dollar projects throughout the southwestern United States, including habitat restorations.

“Monmouth College very much has been a family affair,” Smith said at the time of his gift.

His mother, Mary Uhler Smith, graduated in 1941, and his brother, Greg Smith ’74, followed him to campus from their Burlington, Iowa, home. “I really love Monmouth. It meant the world to me when I was there. It’s a wonderful school.”

Smith elaborated, citing a recent tagline that Monmouth used to market itself.

“A few years ago, the College had the slogan ‘What college was meant to be.’ And that really resonated with me. I was at Iowa State for one summer term, and that was enough for me.

Monmouth was such a better experience for me.”

While majoring in psychology, Smith was active in Tau Kappa Epsilon, was a disc jockey for WRAM in downtown Monmouth and was named Blue Key’s Senior Man of the Year.

“I was there at a real turning point in my life,” he said. “I was just getting back from the service (three years of active duty, including one in Vietnam), and I needed some place like Monmouth to get re-grounded and refocused.”

IN MEMORIAM

Kennedy Reed ’67 Kennedy Reed, 79, a theoretical atomic physicist in the Theory Group in the Physics & Advanced Technologies Directorate at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, died June 20, 2023.

Reed was founder of the National Physical Science Consortium, a group of more than two dozen universities that provided fellowships for women and minorities.

He helped more than 100 such students earn their doctorates and, through the NPSC consortium, awarded over 300 graduate fellowships.

Known for his work related to ionization and atomic collisions in high temperature plasmas, Reed published more than 100 papers.

He was the recipient of the 2009 Presidential Award for Excellence in Science, Mathematics and Engineering Mentoring, presented by President Barack Obama.

Reed was also a professor of physics at Morehouse College in Atlanta for three years and a visiting scientist at the HahnMeitner Institute in Germany and the University College in London.

His research network was extensive, including many connections in Africa. Reed was cited for his work in promoting physics research and education in Africa and collaborative projects between African and African American scientists.

In the late 1990s, he was a visiting scientist at the Cheikh Anta Diop University in Senegal and at the University of Cape Coast in Ghana.

He was president of the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics from 2017 to 2019. He was a charter fellow of the National Academy of Sciences Board on International Scientific Organizations and the National Society of Black Physicists, serving as president of the latter organization.

In 2005, the California section of the American Physical Society created an award in his honor and annually presents the Kennedy Reed Award to recognize Excellence in Theoretical Research performed by graduate students.

Six years later, he was awarded the distinction of being elected as a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in recognition of his important studies in atomic theory and successful efforts to increase minority participation in the physical sciences in the United States and Africa.

Reed was inducted into Monmouth’s prestigious Hall of Achievement in 2010.

After graduating with a degree in physics, he earned a master’s degree in physics from the University of Wisconsin-Superior and completed his Ph.D. in theoretical atomic physics from the University of Nebraska.

Survivors include his wife of 55 years, Jane Hensleigh Reed ’69.

REVISITING NEVERLAND The Monmouth College theatre department, in association with Monmouth’s Buchanan Center for the Arts, staged the classic children’s story Peter Pan Nov. 16-19.

THE MAGIC AT MONMOUTH

T

here is magic at Monmouth College.

One of the definitions of “magic” in my Webster’s New World Dictionary of the American Language is “any mysterious, seemingly inexplicable or extraordinary power or influence.”

That definition may apply to Harry Potter, David Copperfield, Penn and Teller, or other magicians, but not totally to the magic that is Monmouth.

Monmouth Magic is not mysterious.

Monmouth Magic is not inexplicable.

But Monmouth Magic is most definitely extraordinary in its power and influence.

The makers of Monmouth Magic don’t wear pointy hats. Instead, they wear lab coats and athletic gear. They wear academic regalia and business attire. They wear food service and facilities uniforms.

their magic is much more powerful and lasting. Monmouth Magicians work their wonder in the human mind and the human heart — in the confidence they stoke, in the breadth of knowledge they share, in the depth of understanding they nurture, in the possibilities they help others see and seize.

The Magic of Monmouth is the arc of lives changed for the better.

“Do You Believe in Magic?” asks the classic song from The Lovin’ Spoonful.

Do I believe in magic?

I believe in the magic of learning, of caring, of commitment to something larger than ourselves, of seeking to make the lives of others better.

In other words, I believe in the Magic of Monmouth. And I know you do, too.

Nor do the makers of Monmouth Magic wave magic wands. They use 3-D printers and potters’ wheels. They use virtual reality headsets. They build stage sets and combine words to evoke beauty and meaning. They put before us the far reaches of time and space and the inner depth of the human soul.

With thanks,

Monmouth Magicians don’t pull rabbits from hats or make objects levitate. No,

Dr. Clarence R. Wyatt President

CAMPUS NEWS Monmouth College Presidential Search Committee named A 10-member search committee has been named to help select the next president of Monmouth College.

The nine individuals were appointed by Ralph R. Velazquez Jr., vice chair of the Monmouth Board of Trustees and chair of the College’s Presidential Search Committee.

Velazquez said that the Board of Trustees of the liberal arts college plans to elect Monmouth’s next president in early 2024; the College’s 15th president is expected to assume office in summer 2024.

Monmouth’s next president will succeed Clarence Wyatt, who has been president since July 1, 2014.

In addition to Velazquez, the search committee includes trustees Christine Beiermann Farr ’90, Mahendran Jawaharlal ’86, Brad Nahrstadt ’89 and Nancy Snowden; faculty members Saadullah Bashir of business and economics and Audra Goach of chemistry and chair of the Faculty Senate; student representative, Luis Castillo; and two staff members — Vice President of Development and College Relations Hannah Maher and Vice President of Finance and Business Holly Tharp.

Monmouth ranked among top 30 colleges for social mobility Monmouth College is one of the best colleges in the country when it comes to providing students a path to social mobility.

In the 2024 issue of the U.S. News & World Report’s Best Colleges guide, Monmouth is ranked No. 29 among National Liberal Arts Colleges in the category “Top Performers on Social Mobility.”

The guide’s social mobility ranking evaluates a school’s graduation rates of students who receive a federal Pell Grant compared to those students who did not receive one. Students who receive a Pell Grant display exceptional financial need as determined by the U.S. Department of Education when the student files the annual Free Application for Federal Student Aid application.

Among Monmouth’s freshman class, 45% of the students received a Pell Grant. Overall, 37% of the College’s student body received a Pell Grant.

Nathalie Roy and Bob Simmons are pictured at Monmouth’s Fox Classics Lecture in 2022, which Roy presented.

Classics program receives $175,000 NEH grant The College has received a major grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities to help U.S. teachers instruct their students about everyday life in ancient Greece.

The grant was the brainchild of classics professor Bob Simmons and Louisiana high school classics teacher Nathalie Roy. The NEH grant will fund Simmons’ and Roy’s application to hold a summer institute titled “The Ancient Olympics and Daily Life in Ancient Olympia: A Hands-On History.” The event for K-12 educators will be held July 7-20, 2024, on Monmouth’s campus. More than two dozen teachers from around the nation are expected to attend.

“It will allow them to learn some hands-on things that they can teach in their classes,” said Simmons, who will focus on the Olympics portion of the institute. Roy, who teaches at Glasgow Middle School in Baton Rouge, will

address daily life topics, and there will be other instructors, as well.

Monmouth named to Money magazine’s ‘2023 Best Colleges’ Monmouth College has been named one of Money magazine’s “2023 Best Colleges.” The ranking is based upon a school’s affordability, quality and student outcomes. A total of 2,400 colleges and universities were eligible for the ranking, and it was given to only about 700 four-year schools.

“While no ranking is perfect, it is always gratifying whenever an independent organization recognizes Monmouth’s efforts to provide an affordable, quality college education to young people,” said President Clarence Wyatt. “Monmouth has a proud tradition of being a college of high opportunity and high achievement, and this ranking affirms that work.”

‘COMMutopia’ department earns top national ranking from NCA

Every first-year Monmouth student takes at least one course from an academic department judged to be the best in the nation.

The College’s communication studies department was recently named the recipient of the National Communication Association’s prestigious Rex Mix Award, which is presented annually to the top small liberal arts college undergraduate program in the United States.

“The areas of our curriculum that we emphasized in our application materials included our long-standing speech assistant program and civil dialogue in our basic COMM 101 course,” said professor Trudi Peterson, who chairs the department. “We also promoted our

MONMOUTH COLLEGE MAGAZINE

junior-level course that emphasizes vocational discernment and career preparation, and our ability to collaborate with colleagues across campus on interdisciplinary programs.”

The national award came down to two big factors, according to professor Shweta Srivastava.

“One was the deliberation assignment in COMM 101,” she said. “The other was what we like to call our department — ‘COMMutopia.’ It offers people a safe space to communicate and a safe space for our diverse students. And it’s not just the space, it’s the spirit.”

COMM 101, called “Fundamentals of Communication,” is a course that all first-year Monmouth students take, either during their fall or spring

semester. But the department doesn’t take the traditional approach to teaching a course that involves a good deal of public speaking.

Rather than throwing new students into a moment when they’re standing alone in front of a class, Monmouth faculty take a different tack.

“The first assignment we do in COMM 101 isn’t a speech — it’s a deliberation of a civic issue,” said Srivastava. “The students read several different perspectives of the issue in preparation for a small-group discussion. More than 90% of our students tell us it’s one of the most mature discussions they’ve ever had in their lives. They ask, ‘When are we going to do this again?’”

CAMPUS NEWS ‘Face of Monmouth’ Hucke named Student Laureate of the Lincoln Academy Monmouth College has seen many students progress from participants in its College For Kids summer enrichment program to actual Monmouth students.

Now, one of those College For Kids alumni has received one of Monmouth’s highest honors.

Lillian Hucke ’24, who attended College For Kids from her hometown of Aledo, Illinois, has been named Monmouth’s recipient of the Abraham Lincoln Civic Engagement Award, thereby becoming a Student Laureate of the Lincoln Academy of Illinois. Student Laureates are honored for their overall excellence in curricular and cocurricular activities. Hucke’s campus involvements are many — so many, in fact, that she seems to show up everywhere.

“The softball team calls me ‘the face of Monmouth’ — they like to joke about it,” said Hucke, who will suit up for her fourth season with the Fighting Scots next spring.

Although Hucke knew her way around campus from her College For Kids days, it still took a tour as a prospective student for her to decide where to attend college. As a Scot Ambassador, she’s now the one giving campus tours of her own. Then, if it fits, that includes the summer months, she lives relatively close to campus.

Another significant part of Hucke’s time is given to the women’s fraternity Pi Beta Phi, which she currently serves as vice president of recruitment.

This spring, the process grew a little more lengthy, and that’s because the ZBT Foundation was targeting Pevitz for something special.

The process reached its conclusion this summer at a restaurant in Naperville, Illinois, where alumnus and ZBT brother Jeffrey Bakker ’90 presented Pevitz with a check for $17,500 — the largest scholarship the foundation has ever awarded to a student.

One of Pevitz’s fraternity brothers at Monmouth, Ethan Panganiban ’25, received a $7,500 scholarship from the ZBT Foundation.

At the fraternity’s national convention this summer in New York, Jake Rathgeb ’23 received the prestigious Roswell “Buddy” Messing Award for ZBT’s most outstanding individual brother. As a chapter, Monmouth earned the Lee Dover Award for Outstanding General Chapter Programming and the Joseph E. Glaser Award for excellence in philanthropy.

For the latter award, Northwestern University and the University of Central Florida had combined to win 20 of the past 25 years.

ZBT sponsors antisemitism talk They didn’t know it at the time, but earlier in

2023, the brothers of Monmouth’s Zeta Beta Tau fraternity scheduled an antisemitism program that became very much tied to current international events.

Thanks to a ZBT heritage grant the College’s Delta Lambda chapter received, the fraternity hosted speaker Alexander Katz on Nov. 5. The event, scheduled long before the Israel-Hamas war began Oct. 7, was free and open to the public.

Katz is a training and recruitment manager at URBN Playground, with a doctoral degree in educational leadership and administration from the University of Hartford. He’s also the adviser for the Eta Omicron chapter of ZBT at Quinnipiac University.

The speaker is the son of Martin Katz ’72, who during his time as a Monmouth student was president of the fraternity chapter that eventually became the Delta Lambda chapter of ZBT. Titled “Antisemitism: Past and Present,” Katz’s presentation not only reviewed and analyzed past antisemitism experiences but also took a look at the current and future landscape of the issue.

Founded in 1898 as the first Jewish fraternity, part of ZBT’s philanthropy focuses on uplifting and supporting the Jewish community.

MONMOUTH HOMECOMING Relationships at center of memorable celebration

BY BARRY MCNAMARA It all comes back to relationships.

During Monmouth College’s Homecoming weekend, that was the message shared publicly by award recipients and privately in countless moments across campus as “forever friends” reunited on the campus were their relationships were born.

One of the alumni who returned to campus even wrote a song about it.

Singer/songwriter Ross Clayton — known to his 2012 Monmouth classmates as Ross Donnan — presented a free concert Friday night, singing a few of the songs he performed last spring on NBC’s The Voice. Clayton also sang his original tune, “Memory’s Edge,” which he wrote based on a Monmouth moment.

“It’s good to be back here,” he told the audience at the start of his one-hour concert. “It’s been a decade. This stage here is the first place I ever performed.”

Earlier, Clayton led his band members on a mini-tour of campus.

“I can’t tell you how fun is it to be back here,” he said. “It’s easy to see people and the memories come flooding back. I’d show the band spots around campus, and they were like, ‘How much trouble did you get into in this dorm?’ I’m so happy to be back here.”

‘RELATIONSHIPS ARE EVERYTHING’ Clayton’s sentiment was shared by the scores of alumni who returned for the weekend, which coincided with the first fall-like weather of the season.

An alum who was making his second visit to campus of the year addressed the issue of relationships head-on.

“That invitation changed my life,” said Don “Mac” McKinley ’50 of the opportunity to form the Illinois Gamma chapter of the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity in the spring of 1948. “I learned the importance of deepening positive relationships.”

McKinley, who was also back in May for SigEp’s 75th anniversary celebration, was referring to the bonds he formed with his fraternity brothers, but he also began a relationship at Monmouth

that turned into a 68-year marriage to his 1950 classmate, Joyce Chatten.

McKinley was inducted into the Fraternity and Sorority Hall of Fame, and one of the other Order of Omega inductees — Hilary Hawkinson Stott ’07 — also married a Monmouth student (Jacob Stott ’09). The third inductee was John Courson ’64.

Monmouth marriages were a theme of the weekend, as all three M Club Hall of Fame inductees met their spouse on campus — Michael Blodgett ’11 (Chelsey Widdop ’13), Kendra James ’08 (Brett Peurach ’08) and Luke Reschke ’09 (Shannon Turczyn ’09).

Turczyn even presented her husband for induction.

In his remarks Saturday morning, Blodgett addressed the relationships that Monmouth students form with their professors, coaches and mentors.

“You saw the potential in me, even when I may not have fully seen it in myself,” he said.

“Your guidance, expertise and relentless pursuit of excellence have not only shaped me as an athlete, but as a person. You taught me

the importance of character and the value of hard work. Your influence extends far beyond the field, and I am honored to have had the privilege of learning from each of you.”

The night before, several individuals were honored during the College’s Alumni Impact Awards. One of them was Roy Sye ’13, recipient of the Young Alumnus Award, who married his Monmouth classmate, Colleen Sinclair ’13.

“I am a firm believer that relationships are everything in life,” he said. “Relationships build trust, and once there is trust, anything is achievable. Ninety percent of the collegiate experience happens outside of the stereotypical classroom setting, which means there is a tremendous amount of time to build and strengthen relationships.”

Sye said it was relationships that defined his collegiate experience, rather than specific grades he earned on exams.

“The relationships I made at Monmouth allowed me to take risks, ask questions ... and instilled confidence in me as I navigated a new career in the business world,” he said. “There is a debt here that I can never repay.”

The other honorees were Brig. Gen. Chris Lawson ’88, Hall of Achievement; retired John Deere executive Richard Yahnke ’66, Distinguished Alumnus; worldwide wildfire consultant Chuck Bushey Jr. ’73, Distinguished Service; political science professor Andre Audette, Hatch Academic Excellence Award for Distinguished Teaching; and the Dew family, Family of the Year.

Within the Dew family were several Monmouth marriages, including Clairus Dew ’38 and Elizabeth Johnson ’41, who were married for 76 years, and the alumnus who spoke on behalf of the family, Larry Dew ’66, who married his classmate, Judy Burmeister.

Audette spoke about relationships from the other end of the spectrum, presenting the faculty side.

“We want our students to know they are loved and supported,” said Audette, listing that objective as one of five he gleaned from the book All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten.

Others, he said, were indulge your curiosity and sense of fun, explore everything, sharing is caring and include everyone.

Lawson referenced that support, which was critical to him in his formative years.

“My family came from nothing,” he said. “But I was invested in by the faculty and the coaches.

I was surprised someone was that interested in me.”

Influential members of the campus community for Lawson included professors James De Young and Bridget Keefe, coach Roger Haynes and mentor Steve Bloomer ’83.

Reschke detailed how professors such as Ken McMillan, Mike Connell and Dick Johnston not only kept him on track academically but showed up for his track meets to cheer him on, and Bushey gave credit to faculty members who were on campus a half-century ago.

“Monmouth College is where I began the groundwork for my professional career,” said.

OTHER HOMECOMING EVENTS During a Friday afternoon ceremony at Monmouth Cemetery, a headstone remembering Champion Miller and his wife, Juda, was unveiled. Regina Johnson, director of the College’s Champion Miller Center for Student Equity, Inclusion and Community, researched Miller as a Monmouth student. She said two words came to mind at the fulfillment of what has been a 23year journey — “overwhelmed and surreal.”

“I’m floored and humbled by the response to the headstone project,” said retired College historian Jeff Rankin during his remarks. “This WINTER 2024 7

headstone is here to educate and inspire future generations.”

One of those generations was represented by a group of students from Monmouth’s Immaculate Conception School, which made up part of the crowd of more than 75 people. The ceremony was followed by the rededication of the Mellinger Office of Development and College Relations.

Slightly larger crowds turned out at April Zorn Memorial Stadium for a pair of traditional Homecoming events. At Friday’s Spirit Shout, the Homecoming court was announced. Izzy Gimm ’25, was named princess and Jackson Bergren ’25 was named prince. Vivica Graham ’24 was crowned queen, and Sencere Brent ’24 was crowned king.

Saturday afternoon, the Fighting Scots football team continued its pursuit of a Midwest Conference title, defeating Grinnell College 69-6 to improve to 3-2 on the season and 3-1 in the conference. Monmouth collected a schoolrecord 720 yards of offense.

On Saturday evening, the Concert Choir, Chorale and Chamber Choir gave “A Homecoming Concert: Featuring Music from the American Heartland” to an enthusiastic audience, and on Sunday music professor Solee Lee-Clark gave a recital to rededicate the Dahl Chapel and Auditorium’s Ardell Organ.

Ross Donnan ’12, who competed on NBC’s The Voice as Ross Clayton, gave a free concert in Dahl Chapel.

GREAT SCOTS: THE RESCHKE BROTHERS

Nothing runs like a Deere (except the Reschke brothers)

T

hankfully, when it came to their higher education experience, Monmouth College’s Reschke brothers took a break from green and yellow.

But it almost didn’t happen that way.

Josh Reschke ’07, Luke Reschke ’09, Shane Reschke ’12 and twins Ethan Reschke ’17 and Jordan Reschke ’17 all proudly wore the Kelly green of Geneseo (Illinois) High School. For Maple Leaf football games, the Green Machine add a healthy dash of yellow. They can easily be mistak-

en for the Green Bay Packers, right down to the “G” on their cheesehead-colored helmets.

Green and yellow are also the colors of John Deere Co., which is headquartered in Moline, a few miles west of Geneseo. All five Reschke brothers work for the giant international corporation, which manufactures agricultural machinery and other heavy equipment.

Josh is a global supply business manager for tires and wheels, Luke is a manufacturing engineer, and Shane is a supply management specialist. Ethan and Jordan are both material coordinators.

Sandwiched in between Geneseo High and John Deere was their college experience as Fight-

ing Scots, but who knows what would’ve happened if the oldest brother, Josh, had gone with his other college choice.

THE TRAILBLAZER “It was a last-minute decision to attend Monmouth,” said Josh, who returned to campus in October for Luke’s induction into the M Club Hall of Fame. “I was trying to play basketball, and I was being recruited by St. Norbert (College).”

Located in De Pere, Wisconsin (roughly five hours from Geneseo), and, at the time, members of Monmouth’s Midwest Conference, St. Norbert’s Green Knight athletes wear green and gold.

“At the end of July, I came to campus to meet

GREAT SCOTS: THE RESCHKE BROTHERS ‘TG’ (legendary Monmouth men’s basketball coach Terry Glasgow),” said Josh. “I just fell in love with the place.”

And he also came to a crucial realization.

“Why would I play basketball where my family couldn’t come and watch me?”

Soon, red-and-white Scots apparel could be found next to the green in the Reschkes’ wardrobes.

Josh made his remarks in the Huff Athletic Center fieldhouse, moments after the induction ceremony. On his official visit to campus, the Huff Center was still a work in progress.

“This part was just dirt,” he said. “We had to wear hardhats to walk around. You had to visualize what it would look like.”

The College felt right and had a bright future, and the geography was good, too, as Geneseo is just 45 minutes from Monmouth. That was not only good news for Josh, but for his parents, Allan and Kathy, who, respectively, ran a plastering business and the local Culver’s restaurant. They could squeeze in a drive to campus to see Josh while also being present for the many activities his younger brothers were doing on the home front.

“Staying close to home was an important part of it,” said Josh. “We’re pretty close to our parents.”

And that remains the case today. Kathy said her family’s weekly Sunday dinners typically have a crowd of at least 20 people.

“My dad comes, too,” she said. “We’re very fortunate that they’re all close by.”

Sixteen years after running his last race for Monmouth, Josh remains one of the top eight fastest Fighting Scots in the 400-meter dash. But at the Reschke dinner table, he only ranks third.

THE HALL OF FAMER The Huff fieldhouse would soon be home for the next Reschke brother, Luke. One can only imagine how many times the sprinter ran a lap around its 200-meter track during his illustrious career.

“I visited a few times to watch Josh play basketball,” said Luke. “I was really comfortable coming here. I talked with Coach (Roger) Haynes and with Coach (Steve) Bell.”

Luke would eventually play football for Bell, but not until his senior year. He also played some basketball for Glasgow, but it was in track and field, running for Haynes, where he made a name for himself, earning nine All-American honors and helping the Scots to a pair of top-three team finishes at the NCAA meet.

The first came at the 2007 outdoor meet, where Luke teamed with Josh to place second

Allan and Kathy Reschke host a weekly family dinner at their home outside Geneseo, Ill. “All the boys have young families now, but their mom and dad set the standard,” said former Monmouth track coach Roger Haynes. in the 4x400 relay, lifting Monmouth to a thirdplace team trophy. Earlier that year at the NCAA indoor meet, the brothers teamed for a fifthplace All-American finish.

At that year’s MWC outdoor meet, Josh and Luke were half of the winning 4x400 squad that set a conference record of 3:15.47. That time is still the record today, 16 years later. Luke’s ultra-fast meet record time of 46.75 in the 400, set three years later, was finally bested in 2023, although it remains the school record.

Haynes recalled Luke’s mindset the day before he ran that historic time: “I was standing with some other coaches, and Luke walked by me.

I asked him if he was going to take it easy and rest up for tomorrow. He just said, ‘No,’ and kept walking. The other coaches kind of looked at me.

But there was a national-caliber sprinter from Illinois College, and Luke didn’t want him to get a leg up.”

That type of competitive fire even burned in Allan, long after his days as a talented athlete at Geneseo High School.

“I remember going up to the Quad Cities to watch Josh and Luke run the uphill 400 they have up Brady Street before the Bix,” said Haynes. “It’s an extremely difficult race, and they wound up getting second and third behind an All-American

from Northern Iowa. I was talking to Al, and he said, ‘This is so much fun. I have trouble sleeping the night before big meets like this.’”

Kathy provided a reason Luke didn’t immediately make his way to the gridiron. A four-time state champion in the 1970s and ’80s, Geneseo was in the midst of a 15-year state playoff streak during Luke’s prep career. That included a run to the Class 5A state semifinal his senior year.

“I remember he said, ‘Mom, it’ll just never be better than playing for the Green Machine,’” she said.

Helping to change his mind as a senior was the fact that some of the Green Machine followed him to campus. Luke joined Adam Hoste ’12, Kevin Turner ’12 and B.J. Weber ’11 on that year’s roster and was a standout defensive back, making 15 tackles in the Scots’ NCAA playoff game against the University of St. Thomas.

And every day in practice, he went up against future NFL quarterback Alex Tanney ’11 and talented receiver Michael Blodgett ’11, who joined him in the Hall of Fame’s 2023 induction class.

“It was better than anything I could’ve ever dreamed,” said Luke. “I’ve got great memories of it all. I had the kind of coaches that I would want my kids to play for, and the friends I met here I’m still friends with.”

WINTER 2024 11

GREAT SCOTS: THE RESCHKE BROTHERS In addition to regularly seeing his parents in the stands, Luke recalled that several faculty members — particularly business professors Ken McMillan, Mike Connell and Dick Johnston — also attended his Fighting Scot events.

For a while, Luke considered pursuing professional sports, but not in track or football. Rather, with his flair for competition and speed, he flirted with the idea of becoming a NASCAR pit crew member. But, as his wife, All-American hurdler Shannon Turczyn Reschke ’09, said during her introduction of Luke at the Hall of Fame ceremony, he’s worked at Deere since two days following his last NCAA meet.

SHANE’S STORY Part of the group that made its way from Geneseo to Monmouth in the late 2000s was the middle Reschke brother, Shane, who was also a big part of the Scots’ success in track.

Shane, too, appreciated the support he received from his parents at all his competitions growing up and in college.

“They never missed a football game,” he said.

“And they’d drive eight hours to a track meet to watch me race for a couple of minutes.”

Or, in one case, to almost watch him run.

“I walked by Shane and I saw him warming up, and I said, ‘What are you doing?’ He said, ‘I’m not going to have us lose the final race of my career.’ So after not running that distance since February, he went out and ran a 49.5 split, and we won the race.”

Roger Haynes

“They were two minutes late to the 4x1 in Ohio,” said Shane of the 2011 NCAA meet. “They missed the whole thing.”

“They would work all day, and then get in the car and drive to wherever they needed to go,” recalled Haynes.

In addition to that national meet appearance, Shane was part of four relay squads that were provisional NCAA qualifiers. He was on four relay teams that won Midwest Conference titles, and the Scots were a perfect 8-for-8 in MWC championships while he was on the team, a statement that can also be made by Luke.

Haynes recalled the final race of Shane’s career, at the 2012 MWC outdoor meet.

“We were up at St. Norbert, and we’d pretty much won the meet by then,” he said of the 4x400, a squad that Shane had not been a part of during the outdoor season. “We had a couple kids sit out of the race. I walked by Shane and I saw him warming up, and I said, ‘What are you doing?’ He said, ‘I’m not going to have us lose the final race of my career.’ So after not running that distance since February, he went out and ran a 49.5 split, and we won the race.”

THE TWINS For one season, in 2013, there were no Reschke boys on the track team, but order was restored when Ethan and Jordan matriculated in fall 2013. Ethan went on to be an eight-time All-American, placing as high as second in the nation in the 400. Included among his 15 MWC titles was a 4x400 squad that equaled the mark Josh and Luke set.

“Some of my fondest memories are from Monmouth,” said Ethan. “I remember coming here when I was just a kid. And then as a student, the liberal arts experience offered more than I ever thought possible, and that’s something I definitely take into the workplace.”

Ethan recalled watching his two oldest brothers compete at the 2007 MWC meet, when the Scots scored a whopping 307.5 points to easily defend their title.

“I remember how dominant they were at the conference meet at Ripon,” he said. “In every event, it seemed, they finished first, second and third. That was a meet that stood out to me.”

His twin reiterated how important his parents have been in his and his brothers’ lives.

“You could always count on them if you needed anything,” said Jordan. “They always had something positive to say. At meets, I could always hear my dad’s whistle.”

Like his brothers, Jordan’s time at Monmouth was special to him.

“It’s just the memories and the friendships, like they’ve said, and everything you get taught here.

It was definitely a positive experience for me.”

THEY’RE ALL RESCHKES: From left, Maddy, Beckham, Jordan, Lindsey, Emersyn, Reece, Shane, Kathy, Allan, Ethan, Joanna, Jett, Jenna, Bennett, Halle, Josh, Graham, Ella, Shannon and Luke.

FAMILY FOCUS AND WORK ETHIC “We loved that they were close by, and they could come home on weekends when they wanted to,” said Kathy. “We could even meet them in the middle, in Galesburg. I remember doing that one day when Luke called and said he needed some dress clothes.”

“I still stay in touch with them a fair amount,” said Haynes, a huge Rolling Stones fan who was listening in his office to the group’s new Hackney Diamonds album, which was released that day. “And this is appropriate for today, but Josh has become a big Rolling Stones fan, too. He called me one night to tell me he’d been at one of their Soldier Field shows and that he’d knocked over about 40 people to get a drumstick that Charlie Watts tossed to the crowd. I’m sure it’s in his man cave now.”

On another occasion, the three older brothers — all avid outdoorsmen — returned to campus to hear world-renowned hunter Tim Wells ’87 present the Wendell Whiteman Memorial Lecture.

Haynes called the brothers “five different kids,” but he noted two important similarities.

“Allan and I never dreamed all five boys would wind up at the same place. They’ve grown off of each other’s successes. Monmouth College met each of their needs individually — academically, athletically.”

Kathy Reschke

“They all have some very strong characteristics — a family focus and a tremendous work ethic,” he said. “Their mom and dad undoubtedly did a great job of parenting. All the boys have young families now, but their mom and dad set the standard.”

In addition to Luke, two other brothers are married to Monmouth alumnae — Josh’s wife is the former Jenna Bean ’12 and Ethan married the track team’s 800-meter record holder, Joanna Podosek ’18.

Kathy is grateful for the role Monmouth College played in keeping the bar high for her sons.

“I’d talk to other parents about what was happening with their kids who went to college,” said Kathy. “As a parent, you just want it to go so well for them. After a month or so, I’d talk to each of the boys, and they seemed happy. And then you just go” — and with that, she made a fist pump.

Eventually, she was 5-for-5 on fist pumps.

“Allan and I never dreamed all five boys would wind up at the same place,” she said.

“They’ve grown off of each other’s successes.

Monmouth College met each of their needs individually — academically, athletically.”

Socially, too.

“With all my boys, these are their friends for life,” she said. “We walked in today (for the ceremony) and saw the boys all talking to their friends. I said to Allan, ‘It feels like home.’”

WINTER 2024 13

After a renovation to the Ardell Organ this year, music faculty member Solee Lee-Clark said, “The organ is sounding the best it has since I came to Monmouth in 2017. It has always been a good-looking instrument, but now it also sounds great.”

College’s Ardell Organ restored and sounds (and looks) as good as new

BY BARRY MCNAMARA Log on to the Pipe Organ Database (pipeorgandatabase.org), and Monmouth College is represented. The top header on the school’s page reads “Schantz Organ Co. (Opus 6, 1946).”

The database’s “Status and Condition” header on that page about the College’s 77-year-old Ardell Organ can now receive a refresher — an update from “unknown,” to “as good as new,” thanks to a renovation of the instrument that was completed this year by Randall E. Karstens.

The Iowa City-based service and restoration technician finished his work in time for a Homecoming weekend concert. Monmouth music faculty member Solee Lee-Clark played a recital in Dahl Chapel and Auditorium featuring the music of William Byrd, G. H. Handel and Franz Liszt. It was followed by a talk by Karstens, who described the work needed for the “Status and Condition” upgrade.

Organ in the fall of 2019 after hearing from LeeClark that “lots of issues were creeping up with the instrument, including dead notes.”

“I traveled down to see it, and that confirmed my suspicions of what was needed,” said Karstens. “I tendered a proposal for a two-stage work process.”

Chief among the issues was repairing leather pouches — quite a few of them, in fact. Every pipe in the organ has a pouch under it to control the air to that pipe, and Monmouth’s organ has more than 2,000 pipes.

In fact, during the previous restoration in 2003, which was funded by Robert Ardell ’62 and his wife, Lee, the number of pipes in the instrument was increased from 1,952 to more than 2,300.

Through the years, the leather pouches under the pipes begin to fail. The restoration begins with removing pouch boards, one of many steps to re-leathering the instrument. But before Karstens could get the project underway, COVID happened. The pandemic not only kept him off campus for several months, but it dis-

rupted the supply chain.

“I spent a lot of time on site,” said Karstens.

“This was already a bigger project due to the number of leather pouches that needed to be repaired. I had to unscrew a lot of screws and then screw them back in. And It became a more lengthy process due to COVID and to vendor issues.”

CELEBRATORY CONCERTS In 2003, a concert by a special guest — renowned organist David Schrader — celebrated the rededication of the Ardell Organ, just as the legendary organist Marcel Dupré had visited campus in 1946 to perform the inaugural concert.

This time, the honor went to Lee-Clark, an accomplished musician who in 2014 gave a solo performance at Weill Recital Hall in New York City’s Carnegie Hall.

“The organ is sounding the best it has since I came to Monmouth in 2017,” she said. “It has always been a good-looking instrument, but now it also sounds great.”

DONOR PROFILE THOMAS MARTIN ’72 THE BACKGROUND: Tom grew up in Moline, Illinois, and also spent time in Heidelberg, Germany, and Nigel, South Africa. He graduated from Monmouth with a degree in government and earned a master’s degree in human resource management from the University of Utah. Tom also worked in marketing for John Deere Co. for 27 years and today lives in Reno, Nevada.

THE GIFT: Tom has a streak of 14 years of consecutive giving and support of the College’s annual fund through a multi-year pledge commitment. That demonstrates his belief in the vitality of the liberal arts experience, in paying it forward for the next generation of students, and in the power of charitable support. “Think of what kind of world you want future generations to live in and what it is going to take to make that happen,” said Tom. “In a world of 8.1 billion people, helping a student afford a college education may not seem like much, but it means the world to that one student.

You can improve the future one person at a time. Give donating a try. You might like it!”

MONMOUTH MEMORIES: “I would say that the discipline I developed when it came to my study habits has helped me greatly over the years,” said Tom. “Hearing the viewpoints of others and learning about how other students grew up in ways different from my own broadened my understanding of the world.”

STORY TIME: “Since retiring, I have been doing a side hustle working as a standardized patient at the University of Nevada School of Medicine,” said Tom. “I enjoy being around young people and watching them grow from absolute novices to getting the right to put M.D. after their name. I admit my job is only the tiniest of cogs in that learning process, but I feel pride in doing my part.”

CHARLES ’60 AND VIRGINIA RASSIEUR THE BACKGROUND: Following his graduation from Monmouth, Chuck received his divinity degree from the Princeton Theological Seminary. After serving two churches in Maryland for seven years, he returned to school, earning a doctorate in psychology from Claremont School of Theology. He worked in the latter field for more than a quarter century, including counsel to clergy and seminarians.

THE GIFT: The Rassieurs created a planned gift for the College, funding it early through a cash donation.

“We wanted to do it in our lifetime,” said Ginni. “We talked with our financial adviser, and we asked him, ‘Is it reasonable to do this?’ and ‘Should we do it now?’ He encouraged us to do it now, and he handled everything for us.” Chuck emphasized, “The most important lesson for young adults is that their integrity is their greatest asset.” With that in mind, the Rassieurs’ gift will fund a prize for an annual essay contest focusing on integrity.

MONMOUTH MEMORIES: “There were two major influences during my time at Monmouth,” said Chuck. “One of the requirements of the Bible major was that we had to do field work in a church. I asked Prof. (Charles) Speel if there was a Black church where I could do the work. I spent the semester at a Baptist church in Monmouth. It was an important experience for me to be the only white person sitting there on Sundays, and to meet the high school kids there.” The other influence was his participation in the Washington Semester Program his junior year. “That was a very, very important broadening experience for me,” he said.

STORY TIME: Chuck and Ginni were high school sweethearts, but the couple that’s now been married 63 years chose to go to different colleges. Ginni attended what is now known as Muskingum University in Ohio. “We support all four schools, including my graduate schools,” said Chuck. “They’re all very important to us.”

THOMAS ’85 AND CRYSTAL KRUG SARGENT ’85 THE BACKGROUND: Tom was one of a half-dozen Zion-Benton High School students recruited to Monmouth in the early 1980s by Steve Ehrhart ’77. Crystal grew up outside of Monmouth and graduated from Yorkwood High School. In 2002, Tom returned to his alma mater to work, and he now serves as director of teacher education. Crystal is an English language learner teacher at Steele Elementary School in nearby Galesburg.

THE GIFT: The Sargents make a recurring gift to the College through payroll deduction.

“It comes right out of my check, and we get a statement at the end of the year,” said Tom. “We never actually have to worry about it. We don’t have to mail back any forms, so it’s nice to have that ease.”

MONMOUTH MEMORIES: Tom and Crysal met on campus during their freshman year at a fraternity-sorority exchange. “From that evening on, we started dating,” said Tom. “We got engaged as seniors, and we got married the July after Commencement.” Tom’s Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity experience helped him in other important ways, too. “SigEp helped me develop leadership skills,” he said. “I was placed in leadership roles, which I was not comfortable with initially, but by the end, I was chapter president. It developed a set of skills in me. I didn’t have that skill set prior to coming to college.”

STORY TIME: In the fall of 1987, Tom attended a gathering of recent alums, led by the late Safford Peacock, who at the time was chairman of the Monmouth College Board of Trustees. “He spoke about the importance of giving back to an institution,” said Tom. “He said it doesn’t matter how much you give, just that you begin a commitment to the institution. He also told us that continued commitment is important to the institution, not only because it impacts students, but because having a higher percentage of alumni support helps the institution secure funding from other sources. That was a new way of looking at things for me.”

THE BACKGROUND: In the heyday of the Monmouth College Octopus Club — and when the legendary Bobby Woll ’34 was just a rookie head coach for the Fighting Scots — Bernie Bolon was a big man on campus. He and his future wife, 1939 classmate Rosemary Field, were a popular couple. Inspired by their parents’ fondness for their alma mater, sisters Barbara Bolon Bye ’64 and Patricia Bolon Elmone ’77 followed their parents to Monmouth. Like her mother, Barbara became a teacher, and the second portion of her career focused on special education. In between, she followed her father’s path in insurance, working for seven years for State Farm. Meanwhile, Pat was “Up, up and away with TWA,” enjoying her career with Trans World Airlines.

THE GIFT: Barbara and Pat recently established the Bernard Dean and Rosemary Field Bolon Scholarship, which will provide perpetual financial assistance for select students each year, with preference given to incoming freshmen who participate in co-curricular activities. “We’re both retired, and we began really looking at the legacy we wanted to leave,” said Pat, who winters in Florida not far from her sister. “We wanted to do something to honor our parents. It all fell into place seamlessly. We were able to fund the scholarship through gifts of cash and stock contributions, and now that the scholarship is fully endowed, we’re looking forward to seeing it being awarded.”

James R. Bunn ‘68 and Alice Young Bunn ‘69 William G. Pyatt ‘75 and Brenda Pyatt

MONMOUTH MEMORIES: “We’re both very proud of them, and we loved them very much,” said Pat of her parents. “Monmouth College is where they fell in love, and we both loved our time at Monmouth, too.”

Charlie’s Charities

STORY TIME: “One of my favorite pictures of the two of them at Monmouth is when they were voted by their classmates the May Queen and King,” said Barbara. “There’s a picture of them sitting on their thrones, and Mother is wearing a crown of flowers. It’s tipping on her head – it’s all cattywampus.”

RICHARD ’66 and LEE YAHNKE BACKGROUND: Dick’s Monmouth education served as a springboard to the success he experienced — first as a Navy line officer aboard the USS Massey with two overseas deployments in the 1960s, then throughout his 40-year marketing and management career with John Deere. He held a variety of management experiences in numerous marketing and manufacturing locations for the company, including an assignment as marketing manager for Australia and New Zealand. He retired in 2006 as vice president of Worldwide Agricultural Parts Marketing.

THE GIFT: A member of the Monmouth College Board of Trustees for 25 years, Dick and his wife, Lee, made a gift to establish the Yahnke Business and Economics Endowed Internship Fund, helping ensure that students seeking internships have the means to do so. The gift was made through IRA required minimum distributions, which “are a great way to avoid taxes and support worthy causes,” said Dick.

MONMOUTH MEMORIES: “An endowment for business internships will provide funding and accessibility for more students who simply could not consider an internship due to their financial limitations,” said Dick. “As the youngest of five, the first to attend college, with loving parents but limited financial ability, I was that student who relied on summer jobs and grants to pay for college.” Yahnke said he first heard about attending Monmouth from his teacher and coach, Keith Follett, who was the son-in-law of legendary Monmouth philosophy professor Sam Thompson.

STORY TIME: “Internships provide an opportunity for real-world practical business experience for students seeking business-related degrees,” said Dick. It’s encouraging to note that the first four internship recipients either have graduated or will graduate this spring and all are employed or have job offers. “The program is working,” said Dick. “Wackerle Center staff and business faculty are doing a great job of administering the program and encouraging deserving and qualified students to apply.”

DELETRA CROSS HUDSON ’92 THE BACKGROUND: Deletra Hudson, aka “The Financial Educator,” owns a financial and consulting firm in St. Louis, the same city where she grew up and attended Sumner High School, the oldest high school for African American students west of the Mississippi River. A bestselling and awardwinning author and speaker, her quarter century of financial experience includes working with corporations, municipalities, non-profit agencies, small businesses, churches and professionals.

THE GIFT: She has established the Deletra Cross Hudson Scholarship Fund to assist Monmouth’s minority students who are faced with financial challenges to continue their studies. “My goal is to get the scholarship endowed,” she said.

“Students are eligible to receive it after their first year. And there are academic requirements. We have to see that you have skin in the game. If money is the thing holding a student back, we want to make it so that money isn’t the thing.”

MONMOUTH COLLEGE MAGAZINE

MONMOUTH MEMORIES: Scholarships are important to Deletra because that’s how she became a Monmouth student herself. “Monmouth was the only predominantly white institution I applied to,” she said. “I’d always been good academically, and they gave me a large scholarship.” She was encouraged to re-engage with the College by staff member Mollie Williams Harrod ’07, and now she’s on the Alumni Board, helping to “assist with some of my peers getting involved with the College.”

STORY TIME: “I realized I’ve got do more,” she said of her financial advising. “I’m helping my clients to see the bigger vision. I want them to have a 100-year plan. That might seem like a large amount of time. A person might think, ‘One hundred years from now doesn’t affect me.’ But when I think of 100 years for me, that goes back to grandma and on to my children. All of that affects me. So my goal is to help people — and especially women business owners — bridge the gaps and help them build a legacy. That’s my passion.”

ALUMNI NEWS | SCOTS SPORTS

Three Scots now working in NFL There are now two former Fighting Scots coaching in the NFL after Rod Ojong ’13 was hired by the New England Patriots to serve as their defensive backs coach.

In addition to Ojong, the AFC East also features another Monmouth connection, Thomas Witty ’21, a player personnel assistant with the New York Jets. One of his main duties is to scout collegiate talent as the Jets prepare for the NFL Draft.

Ojong is a former teammate of Alex Tanney ’11, who was promoted for the second consecutive offseason by the NFC champion Philadelphia Eagles. Tanney is now the team’s quarterbacks coach.

During their college days, Ojong appeared in Tanney’s trick shot video, riding a bicycle and getting hit by a precise Tanney pass on his last throw of the video, which now has more than 4.4

million views.

In an article that called Tanney “a rising star” on the Eagles’ coaching staff, the team’s offensive coordinator last season, Shane Steichen (now head coach of the Indianapolis Colts), said of Tanney, “He gets it, you know what I mean? ...

Sharp. Very, very detailed .... The way he teaches the game is second to none.”

Added Philadelphia’s head coach, Nick Sirianni, “He is super smart, super intelligent. He connects with the players. Playing for nine years in the NFL, he has this instant connection there.

He’s really worked to get everything he has.”

While Tanney is still coaching with his first team after his playing career, Ojong has moved around, sharpening his craft at a total of nine schools, including Monmouth. His two most recent stops were the University of Georgia and the University of Buffalo.

Scots win seven straight to finish season There aren’t too many football teams around the nation that close their season with a seven-game winning streak, especially in Division III, where all the playoff teams except the national champion end their successful campaigns with a loss.

But the Fighting Scots did just that, recovering from a 20-17 loss to Illinois College that ultimately kept them from winning the Midwest Conference to reel off the impressive streak, which included a pair of dramatic victories against Lake Forest and St. Norbert.

In Monmouth’s 16-14 win over Lake Forest, the Scots overcame what could’ve been a disastrous blocked punt in the final seconds by, on the very next play, blocking the Foresters’ attempt at a game-winning 32-yard field goal. Tevin Baker did the honors as Monmouth topped Lake Forest for the first time since 2018.

Two weeks later, the Scots played in their second straight Cousins Subs Lakefront Bowl by virtue of their runner-up finish in the MWC. Waiting for them in Wauwatosa, Wis., was a familiar foe – former league rival St. Norbert. The Scots and Knights had staged a trio of epic battles from 2017-19, and the bowl game would be no different. Monmouth trailed 14-0 in the second half but tied the game with 2:50 to play on a 20-yard run by quarterback Carter Boyer, capping a 97-yard drive. A fifth-year senior, Boyer had memorably led a similar drive to lift Monmouth to a 10-7 victory over St. Norbert in the 2019 MWC title game when he was a freshman.

The Scots got the ball back on a sack and fumble with 1:43 to play, and Boyer capped a short 28-yard TD drive with a 17-yard pass to Nate Thornton, giving Monmouth a 21-14 victory.

Sandwiched in between those games was a dominant performance in the Bronze Turkey Game. Monmouth topped Knox 42-7, extending its streak in the famous rivalry to 24 straight wins.

MONMOUTH COLLEGE MAGAZINE

A wild ending to Monmouth’s 16-14 victory over Lake Forest on Nov. 4 was capped by a game-clinching field goal block by Tevin Baker, and the Fighting Scots’ sideline couldn’t have been happier. Photographer Kent Kriegshauser captured the reaction.

In leading Monmouth to a 9-2 record, Boyer threw for 3,009 yards and 26 TDs. He also rushed for 449 yards and another eight scores and was named the first team All-MWC quarterback.
