[NU Sports] Northwestern Olympian

[Jonathan Michael Hawkins]

Former NU student Jamie Schroeder was on the US Olympic Rowing Team in 
Athens.

He transferred from NU to Stanford about midway through his career at NU 
because of the better rowing opportunities (and his increasing talent).

I'm not sure if you count him as an NU guy, but me and my friends sure do. 
In '04 about 20 of us got together at 1am to watch his heats, and 
celebrated his return from Greece when he stopped back into Ev,IL to say 
hello.

Best,

Jonathan
