LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

"Another outstanding issue. I learn something every time. Blockchain is fascinating."

Charles J. (Chop) Keenan III ’66, Menlo College Trustee Emeritus, Woodside, CA

"Mahalo for your fine work. I especially loved the cover. Also, great coverage of Roxane Marenberg’s work on “Ethics in Real Time,” the intro of new board member Kathy Jackson, and coverage on the Global Immersion internship!!

So awesome!"

Micah Kāne ’91, Chair, Menlo College Board of Trustees, Kane’ohe, HI

"The recent Menlo College Magazine resulted in a fellow classmate, William Maxwell, reaching out to me to congratulate me on the “outstanding article” [see the Summer 2022 issue, page 52, on Spears’ career in art –Ed]. We caught up on common memories and who we have been able to stay in touch with over these past five decades (where have the years gone?). Another friend from Princeton reflected on the year in 1969 when the university went coed. It seems like there was a new awareness that single-sex higher education institutions, in order to survive and grow, saw the need to include women which, in turn, reaped benefits beyond financial gains and produced a more stimulating experience for everyone. I look back and I am thankful I was one of the first to experience this change at Menlo College."

John Spears ’73, Flemington, NJ

"Well done. Thank you."

Roger Smith, Menlo College Trustee, Palo Alto, CA

"Menlo College Magazine has become the vehicle of choice when I want to get up to speed with our student body. Great fun!"

"Finally, I am impressed with the students’ accomplishments—both academic and athletic. What a crew!"

David Irmer ’58, Menlo College Trustee, Tiburon, CA

"Wow! What a great publication! What a great issue! The top five highlights for me were: the cover’s visual emphasis on business, President Steven Weiner’s letter, the article by Sambhab Thapaliya ’21 and his desire to come to Menlo from Nepal, “Ethics in Real Time” by Roxane Marenberg, and the emphasis throughout on PEOPLE, which in my mind is the name of the game in every successful organization."

"As a long-time local resident and retired partner of Korn Ferry International who highly values the power of education, I salute you. And I send another salute to the awesome Menlo College athletic program and achievements. Keep up the great work!"

Tod Gregory, Palo Alto, CA

"As always, goodness, goodness, I am grateful for this publication; it is so comprehensive showing all the good things we are all doing."

Mouwafac Sidaoui, Dean of the Menlo College Business School, Vice President for Academic Affairs, and Chief
