It’s our fifth FOCUS here in the Vale of Paradise, and these incoming first-years are already pursuing the good life together. (We also learned why it’s better to eat a crayon than Play-Doh.)

While they spend the day on campus, give them a big welcome, and tell us in the comments: what do you wish you had known before your first day at Valpo?

Announcing the 2026 Messerli Award Recipient!

We're honored to recognize Rev. Ewald Mueller and Joan Mueller posthumously, and the entire Mueller family, as the 2026 recipients of the Dr. Carlos Messerli Service Award!

Rev. Ewald and Joan Mueller reside at the very cornerstone of LSM, having been the primary driving force from the program’s inception. From the initial spark of the LSM idea to generous philanthropic support, their legacy begins with the program’s founding and extends through the decades that have followed. Quite simply, their vision, dedication, and enormous appreciation for the Lutheran heritage of liturgy, music, and hymnody are the reason the academy was established in 1982.

The award will be presented during LSM 2026 at the annual Board of Directors Reception on Saturday, July 18th.

Please join us in celebrating the entire Mueller family, and their extraordinary service!
