Fall 2024

PDF Version

This fall marks the 100th anniversary of Lafayette’s beloved mascot and, in this issue, senior writer Bryan Hay celebrates the big cat and digs into all that it means to be a Leopard. That includes Pards being proud — and especially about their work. One example? The passion evident in Brian Pinkard ’15, who is tackling the dangerous forever chemicals crisis through his clean tech company Aquagga. (Read about his story in “Agent of change.”) Meanwhile, “Inside the Gov Lab” explores how a group of Lafayette students is spending the year, and the 2024 presidential election, analyzing young voters in swing states. Also in the Fall 2024 issue, we share a sentimental send-off for Prof. Rosie Bukics; explore the sobering statistics of gambling; recap a memorable Fall Weekend; and get a peek inside an alum's rare collection of Rivalry memorabilia.
