 Newly Different, but Still the Same The end of August saw the campus again streaming with students back from summer break; that hasn't changed. Old friends greeting, new friendships being formed, all familiar scenes. There was, however, a large turnover of faculty and staff this fall.  The General Business Office has seen the most change. Barb Pfeiffer has retired after thirty plus years as the check writer for ILC and CLC business. Barb is in all our prayers as she recovers from a series of strokes. Please keep her in your prayers. Stepping in to fill Barb's position required two people, Beth Sandeen and Amanda Roth, who have stepped up and are learning the job, helped by our financial manager Steve Lentz, afternoon front desk worker Stephanie Quam, and long-time Book House manager and general glue of the GBO, Jessica Lau. Dr. Daniel Sullivan has taken on the call to fill out our faculty. Besides taking on new classes, Daniel is organizing the mass choir and the Tour Choir. ...

This report from Prof. Matt Thurow. Hi all, I wanted to share some comments that I received from Steve Gilbertson, the Vietnam vet, that I invited to speak to the juniors for History 11 today. He has given this talk for 10 years at Chi Hi, as well as spoken at McDonnell in Chippewa Falls. He was very impressed with our campus, and he mentioned how, right away, he could tell that there was something different about the students in the halls here - just how they acted and carried themselves. Steve commented several times during his presentation and afterwards how impressed he was with the class - how respectful they were and the quality of questions they asked. He told them that they were the best class he's ever presented to. I was very happy to see many of them go up to him, shake his hand, and say "thank you" at the end of his talk. It's good for us to get these outside perspectives of our students, and see how they do let their light shine.  We are blessed with grea...

  From Principal Joel Gullerud: Last night Leah Thompson and Malcolm Bauer were honored at the Dairyland Conference Scholar Athlete Banquet.  Megan Johnston, John Radichel, and Joe Lau also were in attendance to support Leah and Malcolm.  Here are a few pictures from the event forwarded by Heather Thompson.

Almost thirty years ago, the Faculty of Immanuel and Prof. Ron Roehl in particular, found a way to give the students a break from the long Wisconsin winters by developing what has become known as Miniclasses. Rather than the regular curriculum, the students are treated to a unique variety of amazing classes to help students learn about things that don't normally cross a high school student's mind and some that do.  Each year Senior Class member volunteers organize to select the classes/presenters, work on the schedule, and get students signed up. It is amazing the large number of volunteers who take off from their normal daily schedules to share with our students, some driving two hours or more to present. Most of the faculty, staff, and part-time teachers make a point of assisting by supervising, driving, or presenting classes of their own. Without the support of soooo many people (over 65 this year), Miniclasses would not happen. This year students were treated (oftentimes l...
