Diane Breach Magazine Celebration

To say that Ms. Breach had an impact on Prairie only hints at her influence. She lived out our mantra of knowing and challenging students, whether they knew they wanted the challenge or not. Her standards were high, but her passion for teaching and developing students was higher. 

As a way to honor Diane, a special section will occur in the next edition of the Prairie magazine. The issue, featuring a tribute from Pat Badger (above, lower right), Prairie icon and close confidant of Diane, will debut during Alumni Weekend, and attendees will have the first opportunity to read more about her legacy at a tribute station in the Student Research Center.

And what better way to pay homage to Ms. Breach than with the writing instrument she favored in all of her editing and commentary? Purple pens will be available for all alumni to take with them as a reminder of one of Prairie’s finest educators.
