ABOUT US

The Kemper Old Boy Network mission is:

To build and develop a socially professional organization bridging former Kemper Students, Faculty, and Family.
To unify members across generations and organizations in order to preserve our past and to ensure our common “Old Boy” legacy.
To leverage the “Network” in order to build and promote opportunities for Kemper Old Boys and future generations.
To promote and maintain values that were taught to us and further instilled when we signed the Standard of Honor. We honor God, Home, School and Country.
Because Kemper invested so much into our lives, we felt it was time to invest in what is left of her. As we surveyed the landscape of her alumni and the remnants of her artifacts, we felt the objectives layed out above were a necessary ingredient to ensure that she would not go gently into the night but rather that Kemper would remain a light and a legacy for the generations to come.
The Kemper Old Boy Network is a “Socially Professional” network connecting former students, faculty, friends, and family of Kemper Military School and College. While Kemper Military School and College has been closed for some time, Old Boys, former faculty, and family will continue on. Our purpose is to provide a means to network both socially and professionally, tapping into our past experiences while at Kemper, and to help create a vision for future legacy.
