Professor of Biology Dave Krohne retires this year after 30 years of teaching Wabash students and helping to strengthen the biology department. Professor of Biology David Polley said, “I think that all of us have come to know Dave through his photography and essays that have appeared in Wabash Magazine. Some of us have known him as a both friend and colleague, and we have enjoyed and benefited from our conversations with him about science and teaching. But the really lucky ones are his students, because they have known him as their teacher.”

Marcia Labbe served Wabash as administrative assistant for both Teacher's Education and the Social Sciences (and, for a while, both at once!). Arriving in 1987, she served the College for 22 years. Professor of Teacher Education Michele Pittard said, “Serving as administrative support for two divisions over her tenure, Marcia brought to her job professionalism, commitment, loyalty to the College and a good sense of humor. Marcia was well-respected for her expertise and straightforward approach.”
