Kate, ’83, and John Stirek, ’82
Kate, ’83, and John Stirek, ’82
As third-generation Beavers whose eldest daughter is an OSU alumna, the Beaver spirit is the tie that binds the Stirek family. Amid the challenges of the pandemic, the Stireks stepped up to help establish a permanent source of support for students facing unexpected challenges: The Dean of Students’ Emergency Fund. Additionally, John chaired the OSU Foundation Board of Trustees and serves on the College of Business Dean’s Circle of Excellence and Development Committee, and the Athletics Leadership Advisory Committee. The Stireks have helped secure funding for the completion of Reser Stadium and its elevation to a national best-in-class football facility, with year-round programs and facilities for all students, faculty and staff.
