Alumni Spotlight: Upper School Alum Completes First-Ever Ascent of Remote Peak

If you know where to find Bishkek on a map, that’s pretty impressive.

Now, can you find Point 5318? No?

Well, that’s understandable . . . because, thanks to Upper School alum Austin Lines (’07) and five of his climbing buddies, the 5,318-meter (17,500-foot) peak in the Central ...

Humility and Persistence Carry Alum into the Major Leagues

BAs, BBs, BKs, HRAs, RBIs . . . it seems that baseball was just made for statistics (and vice versa). And like any announcer worth his salt, the Seattle Mariners’ newest broadcasting recruit knows and loves statistics, with one major exception—himself!

Referring to early employment challenges in his chosen ...

Justice with Peace: Lessons from Afar

Students and the wider Principia community were recently introduced to a unique and healing concept of justice from a rather unlikely source—a tiny, impoverished nation that many here had barely heard of.

The thought-expanding encounter was led by former Principia College political science professor Libby Hoffman, founder of Catalyst ...

While at the College, Josh was a member of ...

The Hall of Fame honors not only the winning seasons and record-breaking accomplishments of ...

100 Years of Educational Excellence: Principia’s Emeriti Faculty and Staff

In some cases, longstanding tenure in a job signifies little more than dogged determination. But at Principia College, the two decades of service required for faculty and staff to achieve emeriti status signals something far deeper and more enduring than mere stamina. It indicates commitment to the Christ-idea in education. ...

College Reunion: “The Years Melt Away”

More than 800 people attended Principia’s College reunion last month—from a six-week-old baby to an alum who enrolled at the College in 1939. Renewing old friendships and making new ones filled the weekend, along with great entertainment and, of course, education. In fact, while attending classes, Kendra Nordin (C’93) had ...

Rob Ostenberg is 2009 DKA Award Winner

Presented annually, the Principia Alumni Association David K. Andrews Distinguished Alumni Award (affectionately known as the DKA Award) recognizes alumni who have rendered outstanding service to others in the spirit and example set by David K. Andrews. That’s exactly what Rob Ostenberg (US’65, C’69) has don
