Augie Sweethearts: Lisa Hansen '87 and Christian Ramsey '85

Submitted by Lisa Hansen of Park Ridge, Ill.

We were set up by friends from Augie in the spring of 1986. Chris had already graduated, and I needed to find a date for the Phi Rho spring formal. My friend Lisa Barth Sumerfield said that Chris was coming to visit our friend Tom Heiman a few weekends before formal and suggested I ask him. Little did she know that I'd had a crush on Chris when he was a junior and I was a freshman.

Mutual friends planned for us to "accidentally" run into each other one evening at a local bar. From there we went dancing, and at the end of the evening, I asked him to the formal. We've been together ever since. We've been happily married since 1990 and have three beautiful children--all thanks to our Augie matchmakers!
