From
the President
From where I sit writing to you this season, my office window commands a
more expansive view than ever before. On a clear day, I believe I can see as far
as Montreal, Canada—even Dublin, Ireland.

 Champlain College Dedicates Schillhammer Hall
When Richard W. Schillhammer
graduated from Champlain
College in 1934, he was wellprepared
to make his way in the business world.
And he did—founding Queen City Printers, a
highly reputable enterprise that thrives today in
Burlington, Vermont.
As Queen City Printers earned its respected
place in the business community, two generations
of Schillhammers became members of the
Champlain College community. Following
Schillhammer, now a trustee emeritus, were
son John and daughter-inlaw
Anna—1960 and 1962
grads, respectively. Richard’s
granddaughter Shari and her
husband, Randy, also attended
Champlain and earned degrees
in 1983.
This spring, the College
honored the Schillhammer legacy—and Richard’s
contributions to the institution—by dedicating a
student residence hall in his name. Schillhammer
Hall, formerly East Hall, is located at 109 Summit
Street in a building erected in 1894 and acquired by Champlain College in 1994.
