Jerah E. Chadwick '78 Fund

The class of 1978 lost one of its own, Jerah Chadwick, to a rare form of Alzheimer’s Disease. In addition to being a beloved friend and classmate, Jerah was a poet of astonishing power and served as the Alaska State Writer Laureate from 2004 to 2006.

It is in this spirit of intellectual curiosity and creativity that we have created the Jerah E. Chadwick ’78 Endowed Poetry Reading Fund at Lake Forest College. We invite you to join us in celebrating Jerah by making a donation in his honor.
