Five Iowa grads ten years on from college paths diverge
This year the Gazette chronicled five alums from 1996 to see how life unfolded. Zabokitsky left law school, chased white water guiding in Colorado, and pursued happiness by helping others. Rupp finished college at 37, earned degrees in education and library science, taught gifted classes, and now substitutes in Belle Plaine. Wenck followed a straightforward medical path to family practice with Deere Medical Group in the Quad Cities. Hanson stayed in Iowa for law school then moved to Pittsburgh as a civil litigator, married with two kids, hoping to return. Johnson rose through AEGON roles to a project coordinator in Hiawatha while managing family life.
