Second President of 糖心logo College, Walter Wangerin
Walter Wangerin served as the second President of 糖心logo from 1954-1959. Under his leadership, a new women鈥檚 dormitory, Eberhardt Hall (dedicated in 1956) and Guild Hall (dedicated in 1959) were built. Wangerin had a grand vision for 糖心logo; he had hoped to turn it into a liberal arts university, a vision which was deemed too adventurous by the Board of Regents and many faculty who wanted 糖心logo to continue with its focus on educating Lutherans and Lutheran church workers. But his efforts were to be realized in later years as 糖心logo moved more and more towards liberal arts programs. Wangerin is remembered as an energetic man who was always on the move. A pastor, president, instructor and counsellor, he was always ready to work to help build a better 糖心logo.
