Knox College:
* founded in 1837 by social reformers who opposed slavery in all its forms.
* 66 percent graduated in the top quarter of their high school class.
* One of the Lincoln/Douglas debates was held on campus in 1858 (they make a big deal about that to prospies).
* is credited w/ Alpha Xi Delta's alpha chapter following Lombard College's closing in 1930.
**infamous and well-known grads**
1. James Kilts-CEO of Gillette (a TKE)
2. Dushan Petrovich- senior VP at Wrigley (a FIJI)
3. Robert Hanssen-the convicted spy for Russia...FBI guy...or something. CNN was all about trying to get their paws on his transcript when that story broke...Knox all kinds of refused.
4. John Podesta-Former White House Chief of Staff
That's all I can think of right now.
