 DANNY WEBER
In case you were wondering, my name is Danny Weber and I’m getting ready
to finish up my fourth year here at good ole’ MC. I’ve been visiting
Monmouth from the not-so-famous Westchester, IL (next to Oak Brook)
since I can remember, because pretty much my whole family has attended
the college at some point. It’s hard to believe that I’ll be graduating
soon. I’ve managed to have a little fun between classes though – whether
it’s writing articles and managing the website for the Courier student
paper, playing a round of golf, listening to and playing music, or just
hanging out with the guys in my fraternity – and I don’t think I’d trade
it for the world. As for my major, I finally found English after I tried
my hand at a few others, and it seems to suit me pretty well. If I had
to write four more things about myself, I’d say that I always enjoy a
good movie, am a huge White Sox fan (don’t hate me), have been known to
read occasionally, and I really, really, really like Dr Pepper. So long
for now – see you in the Fall.
 JEFF WHITMORE
I am Jeff Whitmore. I am from a little town
north west of Monmouth, called Albany, Illinois. I graduated from Fulton
High School and then went to college my freshman year at another college
Iowa. From there, I made my way down to Monmouth as a sophomore (the
best choice of my life so far) and now I am a senior. I am a History
major, seeking a certificate in education, hoping to fulfill my dream
job, a high school history teacher! This year I am an Orientation
Leader. I am extremely involved in college, and I love every minute of
it. I am the President of Illinois Education Association, the Vice
President of my fraternity, Student Senate Representative of Liberal
Legion, and a general member of Blue Key, Mortar Board, Kappa Delta Pi.
I am also involved with men’s club volleyball. For the upcoming summer,
I am extremely excited about going to England for two weeks for a class.
I am excited to meet all of you and hope that you are all excited to
come to Monmouth this fall. If you have any questions please feel free
to email me at jwhitmore@monm.edu,
I look forward from hearing from you.
 ALEX
WOODS
Hi there, my name is Alex Woods, and I am a
proud new member of the Orientation Leader Team. I am a sophomore Public
Relations major. I was born and raised in Moline, IL, where I attended
and graduated from Moline High School. During my time at MHS, I was on
the football team. Now that I am a student at MC, I am heavily involved
in Greek Life, and the Business and Economics club. Some personal fun
facts about me are that I am a huge Chicago Cubs and Bears fan, and I
love watching the University of Alabama Crimson Tide football team. My
favorite color is blue, and my favorite restaurant is Grinders back in
my home town of Moline. If there is anything that I love to do is to
make people laugh, and having a good time. My goal is to spread some of
those laughs and good times to others here on the Monmouth College
campus.

it's not exactly a normal name. I am a sophomore at MC and I love it
here. I'm very involved in Greek life here at Monmouth and was involved
in starting the men's club volleyball team last year. I love music and I
can make friends with almost anyone. As you can probably already tell,
I'm a joker and like keeping everyone smiling. Welcome to Monmouth and I
hope to see you out on the courts!
