Feature
19 Roads Traveled, Continued

The Spring 2014 issue of Horace Mann Magazine reported on HM
graduates from recent years who have embarked upon interesting
and fulfilling journeys. This issue continues this feature, reporting
on another group of recent graduates who are pursuing equally
exciting paths in their lives. Featured here are a farmer, a college
senior back from study abroad, an Officer in the U.S. Marines, an
emergency room doctor, a literal "rocket scientist," and, since these
alumni are "millennials"- the inevitable Internet innovators.
"Roads Traveled" will be an ongoing feature of Horace Mann Magazine,
as we seek to connect our alumni from all eras with one another.
