"Do You Remember Wednesday?!" - Our first VAD Event

As we prepare to host our annual Veterans Day Event this Friday, we took a moment to reflect on our roots. A quick look through our archives reminded us where this tradition began.

In 2015, former Navy SEAL Jon Sanchez delivered the inaugural Veterans Day address to our students and honored guests. While the ceremony has evolved and grown over the last decade, our central mission remains unchanged.

It is a profound privilege to recognize those who live out the Lasallian mission of being "Called to Serve" with such selfless devotion. We look forward to seeing everyone Friday as we continue this proud tradition.

We are once again moved by the dedication of Tom Buchman ’68, who continues his meaningful tradition of transforming our hallway displays ahead of our annual Veterans Appreciation Day (VAD).

This year, Tom returned to campus to mentor Aidan Taylor ’26. Together, they have curated a powerful tribute that captures the deep respect our alma mater holds for those who served.

We are profoundly grateful for alumni like Tom, who embody the spirit of service by giving back to the veterans who have given us so much.

Join us this Friday as we honor our VAD traditions.

From the halls of our alma mater to the bricks of Athens!

President Mike Overbey and Brian Heidorn had a blast visiting our young alumni at Ohio University last week. There’s nothing better than catching up over a great meal and hearing how our former students are thriving in college.

See you on the road for more campus visits in 2026-27.
