Warren Haas was judge of Grant Superior Court 3 in Grant County, Indiana from 2009 through 2020. He now serves as a senior judge for various courts in Monroe, Morgan, and Owen Counties. “Much of my success in life comes from my very positive experiences with the German Department while an undergraduate student from 1966 to 1970. Many professors made a lasting impression, such as Herr Banta, Herr Piedmont, Herr Holschuh, and others. The Junior Year Abroad Program in Hamburg Germany was a terrific experience. During those years we also had a floor of Wright Quad and later the old Graduate Residence Center for people who wanted to speak only German.”
