"The Fraker" and a remodeled Student Union at Goshen College

display of historic photos at the Leaf Raker

   During the late 1970s as I was attending Goshen College in Goshen Indiana the students would affectionately refer to the snack shop in the Student Union as “the fraker”.

The formal name is “The Leaf Raker”.

Sherry and I had opportunity to visit the Fraker Monday, September 2, 2019 and have dinner there. I had a hamburger. Sherry had some soup and kale entre.

For those who attended Goshen College decades ago, the Union building is very much different now.

Gone is the post office and mailboxes. The gym has been converted to offices.

But the Fraker remains, updated, remodeled, and refreshed, nonetheless, the Fraker remains.
