Greg Castanias, Vice President of the National Association of Wabash Men, welcomed the newest members of the College's ranks. "The road before you is open wide with options and opportunities," said Castanias ’87. "Wabash, and her alumni, will be with you all the way, just as they have been with me and generations of men before me. So, on behalf of all of our loyal sons, welcome. We’re proud that you’ve chosen to join us. You’re going to be so happy you did."

Dean of Admissions and Financial Aid Steve Klein served as master of ceremonies for the Ringing In Ceremony. "Wabash men come from a wide range of religious, cultural, and racial backgrounds," Dean Klein said. "I note this, not because it reads well in a college guide. But because it is an integral part of the Wabash experience. As we strive to best prepare you for an increasingly diverse society, the characteristics of our student body becomes an ever more important part of your education."
