In our Winter 2022 issue of GETTYSBURG College Magazine, Molly Foster eloquently penned a feature defining A Consequential Education, our College’s promise to our students. She talked with many members of our community, including President Bob Iuliano and our 11th president, Charles Glassick; esteemed professors, one of whom was also a Gettysburg parent; and alumni spanning decades since the late 1960s. They all agreed—our graduates begin their lives of consequence here at Gettysburg College.

Paul Gilbert and F.E. Reinartz’s stirring lyrics rang true at Reunion Weekend this past June. It was the first time the tradition had been held in over three years and the enthusiasm was palpable. Eighteen classes—hundreds of Gettysburg alumni in all—returned to campus for a celebration that was joyous, uplifting, and representative of all that makes our College so special.

Retired Psychology Prof. Bob D’Agostino’s teaching philosophy is about more than just passion. It’s about being a meaningful mentor—for life.

Utilizing the Gettysburg Network and sharing a deep desire to solve problems, Roger Nelson P’91, ’93 and Rod Tosten ’85 collaborated in the College’s Innovation and Creativity Lab to build a teddy bear that’s captivating hearts and strengthening minds—now known and loved as CueTeddy.

At Gettysburg College, our passionate community leans into important conversations. From our faculty and staff to our students and alumni, we witness experts, leaders, and innovators at work. They’re newsworthy in their endeavors and are recognized as such- consistently featured by both local and national media outlets. 

From mid-August to mid-September, the College received more than 33 media hits, with six of them being national mentions. Each mention is a testament to the great work that happens here and its ripple effects across the world.
