Lechner Hall marks 10th anniversary
with reunion for past, present residents
BY PATRICK PEABODY
The Battalion
The first Lechner Hall reunion
will be held Saturday. It has been
10 years since Lechner first
housed students, and the Honors
department decided the anniver
sary would be the perfect time
for a reunion.
Heidi Bludau, an adviser in
the Honors Office and former res
ident of Lechner Hall, is coordi
nating the reunion.
“The idea of having a reunion
really sparked some interest in the
Honors Department,” he said, “and
an anniversary this year seemed
like a perfect time to have it.”
Bludau said they are expecting
a good turnout for the first reunion.
“We sent out invitations to
everyone we had addresses for,”
Bludau said, “which was around
1,500 former and present residents,
and we are expecting around 250
people to come. That doesn’t seem
like many, but it is a good start.”
Sam Keen, the president of
Lechner Hall and a freshman
chemical engineering major,
said he is looking forward to
the reunion.
“I think it is a really great
idea,” Keen said. “We get to see
all of the students that were here
before us. We get to see where
they ended up and perhaps
where we might end up. The for
mer residents are like a pilot pro
gram for us, and we can see
some of what is in store for us.”
Bludau said the reunion will
be more of a family reunion than
just a dorm reunion.
“The honors students form
close bonds at Lechner, and we
become a family,” he said. “The
former residents coming back
will see some of their traditions
carried on, and they will be able
to see what has changed.”
Keen said the reunion should be
helpful for the freshmen this year.
“They will be able to see how
other Lechner residents succeed
ed,” Keen said. “It will fire them
up and help them focus on their
studies. 1 really hope this becomes
an annual event.”
The reunion will be held Sat
urday from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. on
the east side of the Academic
Building. There will be a barbe
cue, and at 4:30 Dr. Finnell, exec
utive director of the Honors Pro
gram, will introduce some of
Walter Lechner’s grandchildren
and great-grandchildren. Walter
Lechner donated money to the
dorm, which was opened in the
Fall of 1988.
