A Message from President Anderson


May 15, 2008

The St. Olaf community has been deeply shocked and saddened by Wednesday's news of the death of Veronica Schrader. Veronica, a sophomore from nearby Eagan, Minnesota, was a valued member of our community.

Because we are an intimate community that cherishes each individual, the loss of a classmate, a student, a friend at such a young age is a tragedy felt by all.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Veronica's family and friends as we struggle to understand and cope during this very difficult time.
