Congresswoman Brooks, who earlier in her career worked for Indianapolis Mayor Stephen Goldsmith ’68 and is married to David Brooks ’77, said Wabash men make 'such incredible public servants' because 'they are encouraged to challenge one another.'

Broecker said he was grateful for the College's recognition of him and of a career that was not typically followed by Wabash graduates, and he hoped students would realize that they could make a life and a living in the arts.
