Alumni Spotlight Introduction

There is no better measure for a successful educational institution than its outcomes—the alumni, who are the greatest ambassadors we could have. Lake Erie College has been graduating students over the past three centuries, and here you can read some of their stories—whether they are of former students who were on the LEC campus in the 1950s, or of the young alumni who are out there spreading the word about their alma mater in the various spheres of professional and social life they have entered.

Natalie Anderson, Class of 2009 "My time at LEC helped prepare me for this position by teaching me the importance of professionalism, as well as helping me gain the knowledge that leads to confidence as an instructor."	Joan Colwell, Class of 1957 "In the 1950s women could be nurses, teachers, or secretaries—only until they married. [President Weaver] believed that women should be educated in a way that would prepare them for the multiple roles they would face as adults."
Deborah Royce, Class of 1980 "LEC gave me the foundaiton in the liberal and fine arts that feeds my interest in what I am doing today."	Mitchell Brown, Class of 2012 "LEC particularly the psychology department, introduced me to the world of research and how to conduct effective, viable experiments. They improved my ability to identify a problem and try to explain it with the scientific method."
Darcy Murphy, Class of 2009 "LEC lets you explore your subject and yourself, so get involved, ask questions and have an experience of which you can be proud."
