Homecoming reminded us just how deep the Doane legacy runs. From alumni finding their younger selves in old yearbooks to current students discovering photos of their parents and relatives, the connections made at Doane span generations.

Different generations. Shared stories. One incredible Tiger legacy.

Your gift helps ensure future generations of Tigers have their own stories to tell and opportunities to discover.

Every Tiger. All in for Doane. Let's keep the roar going! 🧡

If you had to describe Doane in just three words, what would they be? 🐯

We asked our students, and words like opportunity, formative, networking, and community came to mind.

Now we want to hear from you. Alumni and friends, what three words describe your Doane experience? Drop them in the comments. 🧡

Then help make those same opportunities, connections, and experiences possible for today’s Tigers. Keep the roar going and give today for Doane Giving Day.

Giving Day is here, Tigers! And today, we’re asking: 𝑾𝒉𝒐 𝒑𝒂𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒅 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒑𝒉𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝒚𝒐𝒖? 📞

Who welcomed you in? Cheered you on? Challenged you? Made you laugh? Helped turn Doane from a place you went to school into a place that helped define you?

Tag that Tiger in the comments and tell us why you’d pass the phone to them. 🧡
Then, help us pass the Doane experience forward. Your Giving Day support creates opportunities for the students who are here now—and the Tigers still to come.

Give. Share. Tag a Tiger. Keep the roar going. 🐯

The Doane University community mourns the passing of Kenneth “Ken” Fridrich ’59, a devoted alumnus, trustee, and friend whose connection to Doane spanned nearly his entire adult life.

As a Doane student, Ken embraced many parts of campus life. He played football and men’s basketball, was a member of Alpha Omega fraternity and Student Congress, and served as president of his senior class before graduating in 1959.

That involvement grew into an extraordinary lifetime of service. For 56 years, Ken served on the Doane University Board of Trustees, sharing his leadership, wisdom, and deep commitment to the university and generations of Doane students.

Beyond Doane, Ken built a 35-year career with The Principal Financial Group and served in numerous leadership roles in Omaha and Des Moines, with a particular commitment to bettering the lives of children and young adults.

We are deeply grateful for all Ken gave to Doane — first as a student, and for more than half a century as one of its most dedicated leaders. Our thoughts are with his wife of 65 years, Marjorie, their family, friends, and all whose lives he touched.

Ken’s impact on Doane will be felt for generations.

For those wishing to pay their respects, visitation will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 8, at West Center Chapel in Omaha. A memorial service will be held at 10:30 a.m. Friday, Oct. 9, at Dundee Presbyterian Church, 5312 Underwood Ave., in Omaha.

Memorials may be directed to Doane University for the Fridrich Scholarship Fund.
