Congratulations to John Witcher for receiving the 2026 Senior of the Year Award! ๐Ÿ†๐ŸŽ‰

John Witcher of Hudson Wisconsin, majored in marketing and management with a minor in communication. He was a committed athlete on the menโ€™s basketball team and served on the Student Athlete Advisory Committee. He also served as co-president of the Elmhurst University Business Club and a social media intern for the School of Business. โ€œThis year, I focused on making every player and manager feel welcomed and valued, even through small things like having a handshake with everyone. I bring that same mindset into the classroom and the business club by collaborating with other organizations and welcoming students from any major,โ€ he says. Following graduation, Witcher will be pursuing marketing and business opportunities in Minneapolis-Saint Paul and Chicago. Looking ahead, he aspires to become a mentor for the Elmhurst University School of Business.
