Together with family and friends, they gathered for an incredible "culinary trip of Japan", with stops in Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto. is lifelong bond of brotherhood started when they were undergraduates in the '80s, and exotic tours together started early. e recent trip included board members Chris Gary '85 X1225, Joe Pawlak '83 X1181, and Eric Mennell '85 X1207, former president of the Alumni Association Steve Kibler '86 X1255, and three of our top four donors.
