We are now half way through Withrow’s exciting and historic Centennial Year and more is being planned. There’s been a renewed interest in Withrow History and Alumni. Bob Linnenberg ‘63, Christy McTigue Backley ‘66, Dave Blocksom ‘68, Dennis Goens ‘69 and others have done a lot of research over the last year to put together two interesting documents. First is a listing of 100 years of Withrow facts. The second is a listing of Notable Withrow Alumni.

Gentle slopes and lofty tower radiant in the sun,
Arching bridge and shaded valley all our hearts are won.
Withrow’s beauty, Withrow’s splendor fill our hearts with pride,
Love for you our Alma Mater ever will abide.
Friendships made in search of knowledge cherished bonds and true,
Memories of golden hours hold us close to you.
As we venture from your portals aims held ever high,
We’ll look back to glimpse once more the tower ‘gainst the sky.
