William Sprecher

The “Then” photo from the summer issue of the Coloradan sparked memories for William Sprecher (IntlAf). While stationed in France with the U.S. Army during the 1950s, Bill realized that to develop and grow as an individual, a college degree was important. Unsure which college he should attend, he decided on CU Boulder after a coin toss in his barracks bunk bed. Later he was offered a job by the U.S. Department of Labor in Washington, D.C. Bill, who retired from the federal government 15 years ago, lives in Leesburg, Va.
