Leigh Hurst<\/strong>, founder of “Feel Your Boobies”, was diagnosed with breast cancer at 33 years of age! Leigh started “Feel Your Boobies” to raise awareness among younger women about the dangers of breast cancer in young women and the importance of early detection.<\/p>\n

Rick Strasser ’02 and his wife Kristin<\/strong>, teamed with Scott Medsker ’03 and his wife Lauren<\/strong> to put together the 1st Annual Washington, DC “Feel Your Boobies” night to raise money for the organization. That’s Scott, Lauren, Rick and Kristin in the picture.<\/p>\n

My guess is that cancer has touched the lives of virtually every Wabash family. I know it has mine! It makes me very proud of these young people, at whose age everyone lives forever, to see the need and support the effort. Thanks Rick, Kristin, Scott, and Lauren!<\/strong><\/p>\n
