Stuart Wolfer, BSBA’93, was an Army reservist killed during a mortar attack in Iraq in 2008. The ROTC celebrated Wolfer’s life and commitment to his country with the unveiling and dedication of Major Stuart Adam Wolfer Hall.
The Hall is located in the North Campus Complex where the ROTC holds classes and training.
While a student at WUSTL, Wolfer was active in student government, ROTC and Hillel, and he remained engaged as an alumnus. Some 100 ROTC cadets approached Lt. Col. Jim Craig asking if they could honor Wolfer’s life of service. Many attended the memorial event, including ROTC cadets, Olin Business School classmates and members of Hillel and of the Olin Veterans Association.
