Biographical History
On March 22, 1948, Iowa State College (University) sponsored a 90th anniversary celebration in honor of the founding of the college, which occurred on the same date in 1858 when the charter act establishing a state agricultural college became law. The celebration included a symposium, luncheon, departmental open houses, and a dinner.
In 1958, Iowa State College celebrated the centennial of its founding on March 22, 1858. President James H. Hilton appointed a committee to oversee events, including the production of publications, films, and books, and campus celebrations. The celebrations include a Founder's Day celebration, the centennial VEISHEA (the student-run spring festival) and the centennial commencement.
Lampe was the Administrative Director of the School of Religion at the university.
Iowa State University, founded on March 22, 1858, marked the sesquicentennial anniversary (150th year) of its founding with a year-long, university-wide celebration. Starting with kick-off events held during VEISHEA 2007, the celebration continued throughout the following twelve months, culminating with concluding ceremonies held during VEISHEA 2008.
The closing ceremonies of the sesquicentennial celebration took place on a chilly, snow-covered Saturday during VEISHEA 2008. The ceremonies included a tribute to Iowa State students enlisted in the armed services who gave their life in service to the country; a military flyover of central campus; a speech by Clayton Anderson, the first Iowa State graduate to venture into space; and the presentation of a U.S. flag that flew over the nation's capitol on March 22, the anniversary date of Iowa State's founding. The ceremony concluded with the dedication of a newly landscaped area near the campanile which included a bench and a plaque commemorating the sesquicentennial.
