Aquinas College Peter M. Wege Golf Tournament
Presented by Jandernoa Foundation
Aquinas College’s annual Peter M. Wege Golf Tournament gives golfers the opportunity to golf with students while raising funds to support our AQ Saints. Proceeds from this event will fund annual scholarships in Peter’s name, keeping his legacy alive at AQ for the next generation.
This scholarship honors and carries forward the legacy of Peter Wege, ensuring a top-flight liberal arts education rooted in our Catholic and Dominican values is accessible for all students who endeavor to be Saints. Peter Wege was instrumental in the development of Aquinas and his name adorns many special places on our campus. His principles and commitment to creating a just and sustainable world remain a living legacy to Aquinas and its students.
