As a part of Homecoming 2014: Off the Charts, Illinois Wesleyan University will recognize the Alumni Award winners Oct. 18 at a luncheon at the Shirk Center.
Kris Condon ’84 is the Loyalty Award winner!
Recognizing alumni who have benefited Illinois Wesleyan—either through service to the University, financial support, or both—the 2014 Loyalty Award will honor Condon’s service as a volunteer class newsletter editor for 29 years.
She was a member of the IWU Alumni Council Executive Board and the IWU Alumni Fund Board. Condon also served as a member of each of the reunion committees for the Class of 1984, and has returned to campus several times to mentor and advise students. Currently, Condon is a professor and program coordinator in paralegal/legal studies at Kankakee Community College.
All honorees will be featured as “Back to College Classes” speakers during Homecoming weekend. On Oct. 17, Condon will present “Order in the Court! Or, How I Spent My Summer Vacation at the U.S. Supreme Court” at 1 p.m. All classes will be held in Beckman Auditorium at The Ames Library.
Congratulations, Kris!

Kathy would like to share some news!
Hi. This summer our family traveled from St. Louis to Colorado. We took some pictures with our IWU friends and family while we were there. I wanted to share them with you.
Lisa Subar Fetters ’90 and Kathy Blattner Solodar ‘ 89 in Rocky Mountain National Park. Lisa and I were best friends and Elementary Ed majors and in the AOII house.
John Solodar ’91, Kathy Blattner Solodar ’89 and Lisa Subar Fetters ’90 with our IWU banner in front of the Rocky Mountain National Park sign.
Family gathering in Breckenridge, CO. Three alumni, 1 current student and 1 future student!
We are looking forward to being back on campus for family weekend and for Homecoming.
And I have another fun story to share with you….One of my best friends in the AOII house was Amy Gearhart. She was also my “pledge mom.” Last year Amy’s daughter Hannah came to visit Wesleyan, and my daughter Kristin showed her around the Theatre department. Hannah chose Wesleyan as her school, and now she is in this year’s freshman class. And my daughter Kristin ’17 might end up being her “big sis” in the Theatre Department. Small World!!! :o)
