Nobel Prize-winner Paul Greengard '48, a neuroscientist whose study of brain cell messaging opened new pathways to studying psychological diseases, died at the age of 93 on April 13.

In an email to the Hamilton community on September 7, President David Wippman announced the death of Life Trustee David Harden ’48.

Peter Wenigmann '73 and his daughter Niki '15 have presented Hamilton with the jacket worn by his grandfather Carl B. Wenigmann '13. Carl Wenigmann began the modern Annual/Alumni Fund, along with William M. Bristol, Jr. '17 and Clancy D. Connell '12. He also helped raise money for the Alumni Gymnasium, and one of the Annual Fund Cups is named for him. The chapel spire was illuminated in memory of Wenigmann and Theodore C. Jessup '14 by their widows. Peter was given the jacket by his father, C. Mitchell Wenigmann '48, who, as a strong supporter of Hamilton himself, chaired the Annual/Alumni Fund and was a recipient of the college's Bell Ringer Award.
