Alumni Legacy Families
ÌÇÐÄÆÆ½â°æ takes great pride in the long-standing tradition it shares with generations of families who consider themselves ÌÇÐÄÆÆ½â°æ Panthers.
Legacy families are students and alumni whose family, including parents, grandparents and/or siblings, attended or currently attend ÌÇÐÄÆÆ½â°æ. The Legacy Family Program recognizes families for their continued generational support and commitment to ÌÇÐÄÆÆ½â°æ. Family connections have long been a part of the success of ÌÇÐÄÆÆ½â°æ and its students and it is through our alumni families that the heritage of the University passes from generation to generation.

Featured Story
Eickelberg Family
The Eickelberg family’s ÌÇÐÄÆÆ½â°æ legacy began in 1951, when Warren Eickelberg joined the biology faculty and went on to shape pre-professional programs, create joint degrees in medicine and dentistry, and secure funding for Swirbul Library. All four of his children became ÌÇÐÄÆÆ½â°æ graduates and standout student-athletes, carrying forward his dedication to education, service, and achievement. Today, the third generation continues that tradition, making the Eickelbergs a true embodiment of Panther pride and the recipients of this year’s Legacy Family Spirit Award.
