2025 Francis R. Stanton ’27 Recognition: Patricia Ostrom Kohnen ’60

WE ARE PROUD TO HONOR PATRICIA OSTROM KOHNEN ’60 WITH THIS YEAR’S FRANCIS R. STANTON ’27 ALUMNI RECOGNITION FOR HER ENDURING COMMITMENT TO ENGINEERING, EDUCATION, COMMUNITY AND SERVICE. 

A trailblazer in STEM at a time when few women pursued such paths, Pat spent 25 years with Chevron and remained deeply engaged in civic life, serving for eight years on the Dublin School Board and helping shape local education. A child of a former North Shore teacher, she continues to carry forward a legacy of learning and service — values instilled in her from an early age. Pat truly exemplifies what it means to “Live and Serve,” and we look forward to celebrating her at Homecoming Reunion Weekend in September.
