End of an Era

BIRD WATCHER—Associate Professor of

Rollins Brevard closes its doors after 53 years

Environmental Studies Barry Allen is spending the year on sabbatical in Monteverde, Costa Rica, where he is studying the economic impact on two threatened bird species, the three-wattled bellbird and the quetzal. The area’s economy has changed from dairy Allen

farming to tourism, which has impacted water pollution, waste disposal, and, most importantly,

the forests. Allen will assist the Costa Rican Conservation Foundation in their efforts to protect the habitat. His study will demonstrate the direct economic benefit to Monteverde of saving these birds from extinction. HONORING HEMINGWAY—Five Rollins professors recently traveled to Key West to take part in the 11th Biennial Ernest Hemingway International Conference. Professor of English Phillip Deaver, Irving Bacheller Chair of Creative Writing Connie May Fowler, Kenneth Curry Chair of Literature Maurice O’Sullivan, Assistant Professor of English Gail Sinclair, and English lecturer Steven Wexler read papers and participated in panel discussions. The Hemingway event is held in locations all over the world. NOVEL ACHIEVEMENT—Irving Bacheller Chair of Creative Writing and Writer-in-Residence Connie May Fowler was recently chosen as one of the 70 Top Fiction Writers in the Southeast by the Weekly Planet in Tampa. She also was named the 2004 Central Florida Reads Author by the Orange County Public Library. Her new novel, The Problem with Murmur Lee, will be published by Doubleday and released in January. CLASSICAL ACT—Assistant Professor of Classical Art and Archeology Elise Friedland was recently nominated by her students for inclusion in “Who’s Who Among America’s Teachers.”

ROLLINS ALUMNI RECORD

“In 1951, Harry Truman was president of the United States; the Cold War had begun, spawning a hot war i n Ko r e a ; a n d Rollins College, invited by the Air Force, began offering courses at Patrick Air Force Base, making Rollins the first college in the state of Florida to provide higher education in Brevard County.” These words, spoken by Professor of History Edward J. Harrell, opened a commencement address last spring that had bittersweet meaning for Rollins Brevard’s Class of 2004—the final class to walk across the stage and receive diplomas at the College’s 53-year-old campus. Over the years, Rollins built a legacy of excellence in Brevard, accommodating the varied needs of its students by offering specialized career-track courses built on the strong liberal arts foundation that is Rollins’ hallmark. While the program was originally established to provide education to military personnel at Patrick Air Force Base, in 1972 Rollins opened enrollment at the facility to residents of Brevard County, expanding academic programs and formally designating the campus as Rollins College, Patrick Air Force Base Branch. In 1988, after 37 years at the Patrick location, the College acquired new facilities in Rockledge and gave the program a new name: Rollins College Brevard Campus. In 1994, yet another move—to facilities in West Melbourne—resulted in the renaming of the campus to Rollins Brevard. Since its inception, Rollins Brevard has graduated more than 5,000 students, and more than half of these alumni remain in Brevard County as leaders in the fields of business, aerospace, education, law, communication, healthcare, and government. Like alumni of the Winter Park campus, graduates of Rollins Brevard talk of the quality of the education they received and the dedication and enthusiasm of professors and staff. “In the meantime,” concluded Harrell in his commencement address, “we instructors continue to marvel at how these men and women managed to balance pursuing careers, raising families, and earning college degrees. Rollins Brevard truly made a difference in their lives while making its mark in Rollins history.” —Mary Wetzel Wismar-Davis ’76 ’80MBA

VIEW points: The Election

Darwin Land Thirteen Rollins students boarded a 93-foot Motor Sailer Trimaran this past May and set sail with guides and professors on the Pacific Ocean, where they visited nine of the Galapagos Islands. The students, all sustainable development minors who completed a semester-long course on national parks and protected areas last spring, viewed the islands’ volcanoes and sea- and wildlife, such as birds, sea lions, penguins, and whales. They also swam with huge sea turtles. Associate Professor of Environmental Studies Barry Allen and Dean of the Faculty Roger Casey participated in the study trip. In this photo, the participants are checking out a nesting swallow-tailed gull, one of many bird species that exist only on the Galapagos Islands.—SB

The Heart of Rollins: A First-Class Faculty honor the intellectual T oachievement, teaching excellence,

and dedication to learning of Rollins faculty, the College presented the following awards last spring. Bush Professor of Science Donald C. Griffin received The Bornstein Award for Faculty Scholarship, which recognizes a faculty member whose outstanding scholarly achievement or creative accomplishment has helped bring national prominence to the College. Three new awards were established by the Board of Trustees in honor of Rollins’ beloved alumnus and longtime trustee George Cornell ’35 ’85H, whose generous bequest made the awards possible. Crummer Graduate School of Business Professor J. Clay Singleton received the Cornell Distinguished Faculty Award, Assistant Professor of Sociology Rhonda Singer received the Cornell Distinguished Service Award, and Professor of Biology Eileen Gregory received the Cornell Distinguished Teaching Award. Associate Professor of Physics Thomas Moore received the Hugh

and Jeannette McKean Grant for 2004-05 for his proposal “International Collaboration in Musical Acoustics.” Rollins annually recognizes three faculty members as Arthur Vining Davis Fellows. The recipients for 2004 were Assistant Professor of Communication Lisa TillmannHealy, Associate Professor of Graduate Counseling Kathryn Norsworthy, and Visiting Assistant Professor of Philosophy Ryan Musgrave. Visiting Assistant Professor of English and Coordinator of Expository Writing Sean Butler received The Walter E. Barden Distinguished Teaching Award, which is presented annually to a Hamilton Holt School faculty member who has demonstrated innovation and creativity in teaching and responsiveness, as well as commitment to adult learners. Assistant Professor of Education Debra Wellman received the 2004 Hugh F. McKean Award. The McKean Award recipient is annually selected by the senior class of Rollins to celebrate the art of quality instruction. —Ann Marie Varga ’82

We asked several Rollins professors their views on the upcoming presidential election, including what they believe is the most important issue in this election and the biggest challenge facing the new president, as well as what will influence their vote. “Our President needs to have experience, intelligence, knowledge of world and domestic issues, wisdom, and the ability to manage people. He should be a scholar and an ardent reader, yet able to communicate in public. The President should above all else defend democracy in this country by ensuring that elections are free and fair and by being responsive to the will of the electorate.” —Associate Professor of Biology Judy Schmalstig “The rush to war was a well-crafted marketing ploy, playing on fears and promising victory with minimal sacrifice and cost. Of course, advertisers sell fantasies, not virtue. The failure to plan for postwar Iraq left us holding a false bill of goods for a damaged, non-refundable product. Planning institutes short-term sacrifices to reach long-term goals. In an era where tax-cuts and rights of sexual identity consume pubic debate, it is hardly surprising that planning—with its engrained demand for sacrifice— remains an afterthought in American politics.” —Professor of Environmental Studies Bruce Stephenson “Currently both parties are both focused on two issues: foreign policy (including unilateralism) and the U.S. economy. I see the the biggest challenges facing our next President as turning around the trends that are leading more and more foreigners (including allies) to despise our nation and its actions abroad, and helping us become more sophisticated about the world’s realities. Character, intelligence, experience, and sympathy will all influence the vote; in other words, tendency to substantially misrepresent facts or to mischaracterize the arguments of opponents; knowledge of complexities of public policies and their spillover effects, and the ability to consider opposing arguments thoughtfully; worldliness, in the sense of a greater variety of life experiences—both in America and other places; concern for the real problems facing both Americans and other peoples who suffer war, hunger, homelessness, the ravages of needless diseases, and lack of opportunities for learning and self-accomplishment.” —Professor of Economics Charlie Rock

ROLLINS readables BUILDING THE NEXT ARK: How NGOs Work to Protect Biodiversity By Michael M. Gunter, Jr. In an eye-opening appraisal of the world’s ongoing species extinction crisis, Assistant Professor of Political Science Michael Gunter suggests that nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) are uniquely positioned to negotiate the powerful array of political and economic interests involved in species loss and preservation. Gunter focuses on the symbiotic relationship between a handful of specific mainstream and participatory strategies employed by a diverse group of well-known environmental NGOs (Sierra Club, World Wildlife Fund, The Nature Conservancy, Conservation International, and Earthjustice Legal Defense Fund, to name a few). Analyzing which strategies work and which do not, Gunter offers a detailed prescription for how NGOs can improve their species protection efforts and help build the “next ark” by working within the system, working with people, and working on themselves. FIAT LUX: Teaching in Paradise Executive Editor: Maurice J. O’Sullivan, Professor of English The following is from the preface by Roger N. Casey, Dean of the Faculty “This collection of essays is a tribute to the academic leadership of President Rita Bornstein and to the passionate, dedicated teachers who make Rollins the place for the best education under the sun. It is also a vehicle for letting light shine on our faculty and for illuminating why Rollins is such a teaching-centered institution. Whenever I hear Larry Eng-Wilmot’s stories of undergraduate research, Thom Moore’s booming voice of Socratic engagement, Dan Crozier’s transforming piano chords as fast as students can name a melody, Lee Lines’s perfect questions to set off class discussion; whenever I see Jill Jones’s line of students outside her office door, Barry Allen loading gear for a student trip to Costa Rica, Margaret McLaren intensely listening to a student’s question; whenever students tell me stories of Kathryn Norsworthy’s compassionate understanding, Barry Levis’s devilish playfulness, Pedro Pequeño’s patient advising; whenever Sharon Carnahan walks across campus with a line of preschoolers in tow, Thomas Ouellette walks on the Annie Russell stage to direct a student actor, John Sinclair waves a baton before a choir in perfect harmony, I know that the light is shining. When you read the stories, pedagogical research, and collected wisdom of the teachers at Rollins, I hope that you will become as enlightened as I have. And when stories of indifferent educators or colleges that don’t care about their undergraduates appear as media stereotypes, remember that on any warm, sunny day beneath the Spanish moss beside Lake Virginia in Winter Park, Florida, paradise is far from lost—some remarkable teaching is lighting up the world.” Fiat Lux: Teaching in Paradise is available for $14.95 plus shipping and handling through the Rice Family Bookstore, 407-646-2133. 4

MAKING A DIFFERENCE! By Sharon L. Carnahan and Cynthia Jurie Thanks to the success of Rollins’ Screen for Success community-outreach program, the Florida Children’s Forum funded the research and publishing of Making a Difference! The book, produced by Sharon Carnahan, professor of psychology, and Cynthia Jurie, community outreach specialist, outlines a statewide program in screening, child assessment, program evaluation, and curriculum. Making a Difference! provides information for stakeholders who must make crucial decisions for the Universal Pre-K Amendment and other programs for children. Thus far, the Forum has used the book to train 200 key personnel statewide who will, in turn, train others. One of several grant-funded projects at Rollins’ Child Development Center, Screen for Success is a three-year project to start developmental screening programs in child-care centers by training teachers and staff to identify and help children with learning problems. The project was funded by generous grants from the Winter Park Health Foundation, the Bank of America Foundation, and Rollins friends Warren ’39 and Augusta (Yust) Hume ’39. The results of Screen for Success will be published in 2005 in the form of a database and a book by Paul H. Brookes, Inc., co-authored by developmental specialist Robin Katz and co-developed by Jeffrey Janelle, who is now marketing and communications assistant for the Hamilton Holt School. WALK OF FAME: A Rollins Legacy Compiled by Wenxian Zhang with David Smith ’03 and Patricia Strout ’05 Generations of Rollins alumni have “walked the Walk”—the College’s Walk of Fame, that is. The brainchild of Rollins’ eighth president, Hamilton Holt (1925-1949), the Walk of Fame began as a personal collection of 22 stones donated by Holt to the College in the late 1920s. While a number of the Walk’s original stones have disappeared, through the years the collection has grown to 530 stones commemorating famous figures “whose services deserve the eternal remembrances of mankind.” In the summer of 2002, Associate Professor and Head of Archives and Special Collections Wenxian Zhang worked with two students to create a Walk of Fame directory as a part of a student-faculty collaborative research project. For eight weeks, David Smith ’03, Patricia Strout ’05, and Zhang created a detailed inventory and digital images of the Walk’s stones and compiled biographical sketches of the individuals they represent. The finished work, Walk of Fame: A Rollins Legacy, was published last spring and is available for $9.95 plus shipping and handling through the Rice Family Bookstore, 407-646-2133. —Mary Wetzel Wismar-Davis ’76 ’80MBA

A Home Fit For a President For the first time in history, Rollins College will have a President’s house located on campus. The new residence will sit on two acres the College owns on the east end of campus next to Sutton Place South and bordering Lake Virginia. Nestled between campus and a high-end residential development, the 7,200-square-foot President’s Residence will reflect the College’s Spanish-Mediterranean style of architecture. “The time was right and the opportunity presented itself,” said George Herbst, vice president for business and finance and treasurer. “When we looked at peer colleges, it was apparent that most residential campuses had a president’s home on or nearby campus. Rollins’ new President’s Residence will fit the character and tone of the campus, and it will offer privacy with proximity. It will be a real asset to the College to have this kind of welcoming environment.” The $1.8-million project, designed by ACi architects of Winter Park, is slated for completion in January 2005.—AMV

Lancaster Named Vice President and Provost

P

atricia Lancaster has been appointed vice president for academic affairs and provost of Rollins. Lancaster, who has served as the College’s interim provost since January 2004, joined the Rollins staff in 1970 as professor of French and humanities. She served as Rollins’ associate dean of faculty (1983-87) and director of International Programs (1987-91) before being named dean of the Rollins Brevard Campus in 1992 and dean of the Hamilton Holt School in 1999. Lancaster was responsible for the development and coordination of resources for graduate, undergraduate, and non-credit programs at both the Holt School and Rollins Brevard, the College’s evening studies divisions. During her five-year tenure as Holt School dean, enrollment at the School grew significantly and annual gifts to the Holt Scholarship Fund increased 17 percent. A native of South Carolina, Lancaster received her bachelor’s degree in French from Coker College in 1963 and a master’s degree and doctorate in French Literature from Emory University. Her research interest is 20th-Century French theater. In 2001, Rollins awarded Lancaster the Hamilton Holt Award for her service to the College.—Ann Marie Varga ’82

Rollins Athletes Achieve Grand Success Wins achieved both in and out of the classroom

Charlotte Campbell ’06 led the Tars to the 2004 NCAA Championship title

n the rich history of intercollegiate athletics at Rollins College, the 2003-04 school year was indeed “one for the ages.” Rollins’ student-athletes established many new records on the playing field as well as in the classroom. Rollins finished sixth among the 282 schools in National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division II in the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) Directors’ Cup standings. Rollins was the only private college and had the smallest enrollment of any school in the top 10, and was also the highest-finishing school from the South or East. Director’s Cup points are awarded based on success in NCAA Tournament competition, and eight Rollins teams reached NCAA post-season play during the 2003-2004 school year. The women’s golf team claimed the NCAA Championship. The baseball, men’s tennis, and men’s basketball teams all

finished in the top five. The Tars also earned points in men’s soccer, softball, and women’s tennis. In addition, the water-ski team, which does not compete in the NCAA but is part of the Collegiate National Water-ski Association, claimed the Division II Collegiate National Championship for the second straight year. Rollins also claimed the championship in both the men’s and women’s Sunshine State Conference (SSC) Mayor’s Cup standings for the second straight year. The Tars earned a school record five SSC Championships and won 74.2 percent of all athletic contests during the school year. In addition to great successes on the playing fields, Rollins also enjoyed the finest academic grade point average (GPA) ever posted by the student-athletes. Rollins’ 270 student-athletes registered a GPA of 3.16 during the spring 2004 semester, and 65 percent of all

Academics Still Priority With Rollins By Mike Bianchi, Orlando Sentinel columnist

T

here is something wrong with Phil Roach. We may have to get him Baker Acted. It only takes a few minutes to find out the man is cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs. For instance, just he other day, somebody asked Roach, the athletic director at Rollins College, how he keeps all his great athletes eligible. You must have a lot of tutors, huh? “We don’t believe in athletic tutors,” Roach said. “We don’t need them.” Well, you must lower your academic standards to admit athletes, right? You can’t have a great athletic program without making concessions. “We don’t have any special admissions for athletes,” Roach said. “Our admission standard for an athlete is the same as for a history major.” Then, surely, you must have some criminals? Every great program needs a few thugs. So, how many athletes do you have who’ve been arrested multiple times and are on probation for felonies? “We couldn’t take an athlete like that,” Roach said. “We wouldn’t take an athlete like that.” Not even if it meant wining a national title? “Winning national titles is not the goal of college athletics.” See what I mean? Did you hear what he just said? Winning national titles is not the goal of college athletics. Somebody call 9-1-1 before this guy hurts himself. I’m starting to wonder

whether he’s the type who sets traps at Christmas to see if he can catch Santa’s reindeer. “We believe you can win without sacrificing academic integrity,” Roach said. They’re coming to take him away, aha. But before the boys in the white jackets come to haul him off, maybe we at least should give Roach the courtesy of reading Rollins’ resume this year:

Phil Roach recently announced that he will retire at the end of the 2004-05 academic year, bringing to a close a highly successful 13-year tenure as Rollins’ director of athletics and physical education.

■ Women’s’ golf: Won the national championship for the second consecutive year. ■ Men’s basketball: Set school record for victories, reached the NCAA Elite Eight for the first time in history. ■ Women’s basketball: Set school record for victories, undefeated in conference play, reached NCAA Sweet 16. ■ Baseball: Set school record for victories, claimed conference title for the first time in history, and won the NCAA Division II South Regional title. ■ Softball: Set a school record for victories, best finish ever in the conference.

student-athletes boasted a GPA of 3.0 or higher. For the school year, Rollins student-athletes had a GPA of 3.13, establishing a record for the department. “It truly was a remarkable year for our student-athletes,” said Director of Athletics J. Phillip Roach. “The pride they take in having success both on the playing field and in the classroom has been inspiring. This success displays the outstanding quality of student-athletes and coaches we have here at Rollins. Our coaches have done a great job bringing to Rollins studentathletes who are successful in all aspects of campus life. And though this year’s student-athletes have a tough act to follow, I know they will rise to the challenge.—Dean Hybl

■ Men’s tennis: Won conference title, advanced to the NCAA semifinals, had a player (Mark Thompson) who will be college valedictorian. Wait a minute, there must be some mistake. Even Rollins’ water-ski team won a national title. How can you be so good in so may sports and still have a 3.2 cumulative GPA among your athletes? Have we been brainwashed by the big boys into thinking athletic excellence can’t be attained unless you prostitute academic principles? It seems you don’t have to sin to win at Rollins, a charming little Division II campus in Winter Park, where all except one four-year basketball player in the last quarter-century has earned a degree. But the only way this can happen is if you’re committed to the mission—if you really, truly believe athletes should be in college to get that precious sheepskin. The BCS boys somehow have managed to convince us academic standards must be lowered so elite athletes can get into college and become pros. Their entire educational mission has been compromised just to cater to a few—that minute percentage of jocks who will make it to the NFL or NBA. This is where the big boys went wrong. They began selling the sport—and not the degree—as the path to prosperity. “We believe in graduation and life preparation through athletics,” Roach said. “We believe a college degree is your ticket to a better future.” Turns out Phil Roach isn’t the crazy one. Everyone else is. This story appeared in the Orlando Sentinel on May 16, 2004. Reprinted by permission.

Rollins Explorations program helps ensure positive experience for first-year students Incoming students now have more resources than ever to ensure their academic and social success, thanks to a new program that helps freshmen make the most of their Rollins experience. Rollins Explorations is a multi-faceted program designed to integrate students into a curriculum of courses and programs both inside and outside of the classroom that help them learn, make connections, and have fun. “This innovative program enhances the first-year experience of students who are exploring who they are, what they value, and what they want to do for their next four years here,” said Assistant Director of Student Involvement & Leadership Doug Little. The program kicks off during Orientation Weekend with “Reach Out,” which takes students into the Central Florida community to work on a variety of community-service projects such as cleaning up local parks, planting trees, and building Habitat for Humanity houses. A key component of Rollins Explorations is participation of all first-year students in a Rollins College Conference (RCC) course. Taught by student advisers, RCC courses encourage participatory learning and include a range of topics from Visions of Harry Potter to Conversations Across Difference: Embracing the Power of Diversity to Multicultural Thinking and Writing. Students are also assigned peer mentors and faculty members to guide them and help get them back on track if their grades begin to drop. Peer writing consultants, peer tutors, and time management workshops also assist in academic monitoring. In addition, a variety of programs assist first-year students in exploring their choice of a major, including a Major/Minor Fair, an academic and career planning course, and the culminating Declaration Day for celebrating academic intent. Other Explorations initiatives include Nexus, a program in which students participate in “living-learning communities” by taking linked academic courses and living together in a residence hall, and the STARS project, which provides outstanding first-year students with mentoring for future potential graduate school or national scholarship applicants. —Jeni Flynn Hatter FALL 2004

ROLLINS ALUMNI RECORD

Imagine a class where the professor dresses in bright, cheerful, gold- and ruby-colored crepe and wears a huge, silver peace symbol from the end of her necklace, along with a jewel-colored beret atop her head and a sincere smile that won’t disappear. Add the music of Joan Baez roaring in the background and—no, you haven’t just stepped back into the ’60s—you’ve entered one of Professor of Philosophy and Religion Yudit Greenberg’s classes, Love, Eros, and Religion. In this class, which Greenberg developed after a decade of research into the topics of love and sex in world religions, students study not only scriptures and philosophies, but also a contemporary work called Following Your Bliss, which explores the ’60s values of love, sex, and rock ’n roll in America. Greenberg dons attire from this period to create the mood and engage her students.

Costumes and music are not her only strategies for drawing students into the class material. Last fall, Greenberg developed a Rollins College Conference (RCC) course called Spiritual Technologies of Yoga, Meditation, and Prayer, where students learned traditions from yoga masters and learned how to get to know themselves better through meditation. Students studied practices that have been common in Eastern culture for centuries—and actually got to apply them. Greenberg hopes to introduce students to a variety of views through her classes. “Many students take only one or two religion classes during their entire college career,” she said. “Why not introduce them to a range of religious traditions in a way that is broad enough to capture their interest and provide a larger context from which to examine their values?”

Greenberg, who was born and raised in Israel, was drawn to the study of philosophy and religion. Her mother had a great interest in the arts and her father’s background was scholarly and Hassidic (the Jewish mystical tradition that began as a grassroots movement in the 18th century). Greenberg describes her personal spirituality as “grounded in the Jewish tradition and love for my home country with a deep appreciation for other world religions.” Love of scholarship, travel, and interfaith dialogue also play an important role in her spiritual journey. In the early ’70s, Greenberg’s sense of adventure and desire to see the world landed her in San Francisco, where she enrolled in a philosophy class and “fell in love” with the discipline. From there, her interests grew to include religious studies. She graduated with a master of arts degree in philosophy from San Francisco State University and earned her Ph.D. in Jewish philosophy from the Graduate Theological Union in Berkeley. Greenberg began teaching Jewish studies at Rollins in 1986 and soon integrated her academic and personal interests in Eastern culture and religions into her courses. “Classes that offer cross-cultural studies of religion allow students who are primarily of the Christian and Jewish traditions the opportunity to step outside of their comfort zone and consider the wisdom in other traditions,” she said. “This allows them to recognize the similarities, as well as differences, in people’s beliefs.” Greenberg has taught classes in Jewish studies, Middle-Eastern studies, comparative religion, and women’s studies, among them Religion and the Body; Love and Eros in Judaism and Hinduism; Religion and Science in Dialogue; and Religion, War, and Peace. In 1998, with an advisory committee, she created Rollins’ Jewish Studies Program. Her responsibilities in heading up this program include mentoring students, offering independent studies, and facilitating their learning experiences in Israel. With pride, she relays the story of Maureen Melcer ’04, who, after spending a year in Israel, changed her major from psychology to religious studies,

with a minor in Jewish studies. “Dr. Greenberg transformed her,” the student’s mother told Rollins’ president shortly after Melcer returned home. Greenberg clearly puts a great deal of thought into her duties for the College and her students, including her current role as president of the faculty. “One challenge is to create an environment where students are very open,” she said. “Subjects like religion, sex, and politics are not always discussed over

ways, Rosenzweig helped expand my intellectual and spiritual horizons: the intensity of his spiritual quest in the midst of a highly assimilated German Jewish life, his interfaith dialogues, his project of reviving adult Jewish education in Germany, and his continuous creativity in providing new forms to ancient truth.” Greenberg is currently working on a new book, The Metaphysics of Desire: Human and Divine Love in Jewish Thought.

“Classes that offer cross-cultural studies of religion allow students who are primarily of the Christian and Jewish traditions the opportunity to step outside of their comfort zone and consider the wisdom in other traditions. This allows them to recognize the similarities, as well as differences, in people’s beliefs.” —Yudit Greenberg dinner at home. But they’re so important in shaping who we are. We are often the sum of what we learned at home, and the college experience is ideal for examining biases and pre-conceived notions. We as teachers have a crucial role to try to help our students wrestle with their beliefs.” Anne Chernick ’03 was so influenced by Greenberg as a professor and mentor that she says she wants to be like her and is now pursuing graduate studies in religion. “Professor Greenberg has great enthusiasm and passion for her students and life in general, and because of this she brings topics to life,” Chernick said. “She teaches from her heart. Any words spoken from the heart have a tendency to bring others’ hearts to life.” Greenberg’s teaching and scholarship came together in 1996 with the publishing of her first book, Better Than Wine: Love, Poetry, and Prayer in the Thought of Franz Rosenzweig. Her studies of Rosenzweig, one of the most important Jewish philosophers of the 20th century, began with her Ph.D. thesis. “When I started reading his works, I immediately felt a kinship with him—especially his passion and sensitivity for the poetic, for love, and for the mystery of language,” she said. “In many

Greenberg has won numerous honors and awards, such as the Harvard University Pluralism Project Grant, which provided her the support to sponsor student field work that documents the changing religious landscape in Orlando. She also received Templeton’s Science and Religion Course Prize, which enabled her to engage with a new community of scholars working on various areas of scientific research, including neuroscience. In the spring of 2001, she was a visiting scholar at Oxford University’s Centre for Jewish Studies, where she participated in weekly lectures and presentations and was part of this international community of Judaic scholars. Greenberg, who has been an interfaith and peace activist for two decades, has an ongoing commitment to optimism. This past summer, she led five Rollins students to Barcelona to participate in the largest interfaith event in the world, “The Parliament of the World’s Religions,” where issues such as AIDS, water shortages, and religious conflicts were discussed. “We live in a precarious time in history filled with global crises,” she said. “But we must continue our efforts, even in little ways, to heal the earth and ourselves.”

It takes a rocket scientist to run Rollins…

LEWIS DUNCAN

LAUNCHES NEW ERA AT ROLLINS

L

ewis M. Duncan, Rollins’ 14th president, took office on August 1, 2004. Born in West Virginia and raised in Texas, Dr. Duncan is a self-described member of “the Sputnik Generation.” His childhood fascination with satellites and the space program guided his educational and career paths. And while today Duncan is literally a rocket scientist, he is remarkably down to earth. Warm, friendly and approachable, he was attracted to Rollins because of the College’s commitment to excellence, innovation, and community. He is a cheerleader for the value of a liberal arts education and Rollins’ role in raising the issue of how to make liberal education relevant for the 21st century. Assistant Vice President of Public Relations Ann Marie Varga ’82 sat down with President Duncan (he actually prefers to be called Lewis) to learn more.

Choose the things that you do based upon what you really love doing... I think your interests and passions probably evolve as you work through different phases of your life; but once you’ve found them, invest yourself.

Why Rollins, why now? I believe you make the big decisions with your heart, and this felt right. What appealed to me about Rollins was that, for 75 years, beginning with the conference led by John Dewey in 1930, Rollins has regularly asked, how do we continually renew the purpose and execution of a liberal education? At Rollins, we ask the question, which is far more than many other schools do. To talk about a practical liberal education, in almost every other liberal arts college, would be considered an oxymoron. Many schools teach a curriculum derived from the early Greek philosophies of purity of thought, but a Platonic education is one that’s purely intellectual, not one that leads you to look at applications to real decisions in your lifetime. The idea of a practical liberal education is actually revolutionary. I also like the idea of a school this size, because we can have some experiments, like the Rollins College Conference (RCC), which helps entering students adjust to college life by teaming them in small groups with a faculty member and two upperclass students to explore a topic of mutual interest through reading, writing, and discussion. Those kinds of classes offer the opportunity to synthesize what a liberal education is about. The RCC should help students move from an educational system in which information is pumped into them, into the college world in which we’re trying to make them critical thinkers. We want to help them embrace the idea that you have to be a learner for your entire life. We’ll help them figure out how to not only assimilate all that knowledge, but then distill from it their own informed opinions. And even more importantly, help them decide how they intend to act on those FALL 2004 11

opinions to follow their passions, but to do it in an informed way, so they will become participants, not just spectators, in the issues that shape their lives. I keep being asked, why a liberal arts college? I was offered presidencies at colleges that were very good science and technology schools, but I never felt comfortable with that because I like bringing the message of science and technology to the humanities. I was also offered presidencies at schools that were in trouble. Rollins is in great shape and well regarded, and it’s an honor to have been selected to lead it to even greater levels of excellence and distinction. When you were on campus considering Rollins, what were your initial impressions of the College? One of the things I liked, which began with the search committee and was reinforced with all of my visits to the campus, was just how much of a community this is. The faculty, staff, and students all seemed to enjoy one another and respond to one another in the way an extended family would. I found that enormously

appealing. It provides a safe environment for intellectual inquiry and honest disagreement, which is exactly what a college is supposed to be. I had some question about an oft-repeated phrase of “taking Rollins to the next level.” You see far too many colleges and universities talking about becoming the next great “fill in the blank”—whether aspiring to set new standards in higher education or to redefine higher education, or for the bigger universities, becoming the next great research university in some particular field. I didn’t feel that so much here, and, in fact, I found among individual conversations a lot of resonance with “Why not make Rollins the very best that it can be?” Let’s not aspire to be something that we’re not, but really make Rollins the very best learning community it can be. Your presidency began with a great deal of sound and fury—three hurricanes! How would you characterize the experience? People kept reassuring me that this wasn’t “normal”—I asked them to tell me when things got back to normal, since I hadn’t had a chance

to know what that was. When it appeared that Hurricane Jeanne would follow Frances’s track toward Florida, I began to think this was becoming personal! My family and I stayed with the students in the Cornell Campus Center during Charley, and the Bush Science Center during Frances and Jeanne. I want parents to know that we’re taking care of our students the same way we care for our families. It was an unexpected welcome, but one that actually introduced me to the Rollins community at its best. As a newcomer, I found the way everyone stepped up and got things done was exceptional. Rollins is an extraordinary group of people—students even offered to help groundskeepers clean up the campus, and volunteered in Winter Park. We have a lot to be proud of; I am honored to join a community like this.

LEWIS DUNCAN LAUNCHES NEW ERA AT ROLLINS

Can leadership be taught, or does it come from within? Leadership is an action, not a position. Can you teach people to act on their passions? I think so. You can help them learn to have the courage of their convictions. I think that’s one of the outcomes of being a well-informed critical thinker—that you have a strong sense of what you’re doing and why you’re doing it. Leadership is something that can occur at every level in an organization and at every phase in your life. When did you know you wanted to be an educator? I knew I wanted to be a scientist when we started putting satellites into orbit and my parents took me out into the West Virginia night to watch the satellites overhead. There were a lot of kids my age in school who did well in science and math for whom space was the obvious place to go, the so-called “Sputnik generation”; we were raised on the space programs. The opportunity to go to Rice [University], which has an affiliation with the Johnson Space Center, and to be a graduate of their Department of Space Science and Astronomy, was like a dream come true. I left Rice with my Ph.D and went to Los Alamos National Laboratory, which is kind of like a university without students. At that time, it was the penultimate research facility and I worked on satellite systems that served national security needs. I greatly missed students, so I mentored students while I was there. At the same time, I realized that I was very well educated as a scientist, but what I was doing was part of a larger national security function that was equal part policy making, of which I knew too little. I took a leave from Los Alamos to become a Carnegie Science Fellow at

President Lewis Duncan and his wife, Dr. Paula Hammer

Stanford. The purpose of that program was to take a couple of mid-career scientists and have us take and teach policy-oriented classes in the Center for International Security and Arms Control. [Astronaut] Sally Ride was the other Fellow in that program while I was there. The Stanford program fulfilled one of my ambitions, which was to better understand the other dimensions of the work I was doing at Los Alamos, and also led to my decision not to return there. I don’t think there was an epiphany, it was more of a path. You were the first in your family to graduate from college. Why you? I think in my generation there are a lot of young people who were first-generation college graduates. In less affluent families, there weren’t a lot of opportunities to go to college. Our fathers fought in World War II, and even if they had had the means and opportunity, there was something else happening to change the circumstances of their ability to go to college. After the war, many of our parents started putting their lives back together instead of going back to school. It was important to our parents that my brother and I receive a good education. They did everything to provide for that. We moved to Bellaire, Texas, primarily based on a Sunday news supplement that described the Bellaire magnet high school as one of the top math and science high schools in America.

What’s the best advice you ever received? My father always told me to find the things that you really love to do and then do them to the very best of your ability. He never pushed me to be a doctor or a lawyer or a scientist, but if I wanted to be carpenter, I should be the very best carpenter that I could be. Choose the things that you do based upon what you really love doing, and that may even change during your lifetime. I think your interests and passions probably evolve as you work through different phases of your life. But once you’ve found them, invest yourself. I give that same advice to others all the time. If you were to look down the road, what would you want your legacy to Rollins to be? I would like to leave it a better place than it is today. And that’s actually quite a challenge, because it’s a wonderful place today. This is not a campus in crisis and so what’s asked of me is to continue to build on the very positive trajectory that it’s on—to find ways of enhancing what we do, not redirecting it. I don’t think we’re going to get bigger, but we can get even better. I think the quality of the students and the faculty will continue to improve. I would hope in my presidency that Rollins will continue to move from being a really good regional college to being even more recognized on the national stage as a first choice of students hoping for a quality liberal education. I’d like us clearly to be first in Florida and among the finest nationally.

I plan to listen and stimulate conversation by asking questions and convening various groups on campus. I think a new president has an opportunity to revisit how things are done— in many cases to reaffirm our traditions and in some cases to find new ways of doing things, which are different because the times are different. I’ll listen and ask questions, and actually those are two very different things. I think you can exhibit a lot of leadership by asking the right questions.

SEARCHING FOR DUNCAN A glimpse into the process of finding a college president By Lezlie Laws, Professor of English

Stage 1: Getting Elected

Stage 2: Sizing Up the Committee

I had only done it as a favor to Barry. “Just let me put your name on the ballot, Lezlie,” he said in an upbeat phone call. “You probably won’t get elected anyway.” Poor Barry, as president of the faculty, it was his burden to govern 180 strong-willed, independent-thinking, and often outrageously outspoken members of the Rollins College faculty. It wasn’t an easy job, but if anyone was up to managing the enigmatic beast of a college faculty, it was the inimitable Barry Levis, a scholar of the English monarchy, and on rare occasions, known to be rather outspoken himself. I knew I wouldn’t be beheaded if I refused his request, but I also knew there was no way I was in a position to serve on the committee charged to find Rollins’ 14th president. “Oh Barry, do you know what my coming year is like? It’s packed to the gills.”

Now don’t misunderstand. I’m a woman possessed of a deep sense of responsibility, especially when it comes to my work. So once elected, there was no question that I would serve with enthusiasm. I walked into the first meeting of the committee with high hopes, but definitely wary of the people sitting around the table. Imagine aligning the wide array of agendas represented by the members of this committee: two faculty from Arts & Sciences, one from the Hamilton Holt School (myself), and one from the Crummer School; two students; the president of the Alumni Association; four trustees, including our committee chair; a senior administrator; and a senior staff person who provided administrative support for the committee. I looked around the Rice President’s Dining Room, where we would meet and deliberate for the next six months,

“I’ll bet I’m not the only one in the group who made a silent petition to a higher order, asking to be guided by wisdom and honor and integrity. I know this because someplace very early in the meeting process, I saw egos pushed aside; I saw personal agendas give way to community; I saw 13 people commit themselves to seeking the highest good for Rollins College.” “Listen,” he said, “it’s really important we have a varied slate. Just let me put your name on the ballot.” And somehow, though I’m sure he didn’t repeat the line, I heard: “You probably won’t get elected anyway.” For some good reason I can’t recall right now, I was not able to attend the faculty meeting when my colleagues voted to determine who would represent us on the Presidential Search Committee. This, of course, was a grave mistake on my part. That afternoon, a colleague from environmental studies approached me, put his hand on my shoulder, and said, “Don’t worry, Lezlie, you’ve had a nice, strong career here at Rollins; you may be able to weather this blow.” The grim news finally hit me: I had been elected. Damn that Barry Levis! 14 ROLLINS ALUMNI RECORD

and knew I was looking at the dream team or the creamed team. In a matter of months, we’d know which. In many ways, of course, our job was incredibly easy. Rita Bornstein was leaving Rollins having made extraordinary improvements on all fronts. Everyone agreed: the College is poised to move to the next level of excellence. It was clear: our new leader will have the lovely opportunity of moving on up the educational mountain with all the equipment and support necessary to reach the next visible peak. And while the notion of “moving to the next level” became a kind of mantra for us in our deliberations, it also became a burning question, each member of the committee forming a slightly different answer. Faculty wanted a higher bar for academic excellence.

Lezlie Laws

Administrators wanted a deeper financial base. Students wanted a stronger sense of community. Trustees wanted an outstanding national reputation. The jockeying to defend agendas began. Those early discussions were certainly cordial and professional, but don’t think for a minute that the articulate and thoughtful people around that table were not employing their most persuasive rhetorical skills in an attempt to secure their map for the new territory we would soon enter.

Stage 3: Being a Committee We met often in those early weeks. And you must know this: we were scared. We did not want to make a mistake. Much more than our own egos was on the line in the work we would do around that large table in the Rice President’s Dining Room; many lives and a whole institution would be affected in the coming years by the efforts we put forth over the next few months. We wanted to get it right. And so, long before we ever examined the first letters of application, much less talked to candidates, we talked about Rollins—what it is, and what it can be—and we talked about ourselves—who we were, and who we wanted to become. We talked, we argued, we instructed each other gently, and we listened deeply to one another. And I’ll bet I’m not the only one in the group who made a silent petition to a higher order, asking to be guided by wisdom and honor and integrity. I know this because someplace very early in the meeting process, I saw egos pushed aside; I saw personal agendas give way to community; I saw 13 people commit themselves to seeking the highest good for Rollins College in the spirit of cooperation, collaboration, and

service. Respect sat largely at the head of our table. We became a committee in the highest sense of the word. And then came the hard work. Hours and hours of perusing materials, calling references, conferring with members of the Rollins community, all in an effort to identify those few persons with the right stuff to lead Rollins in the next decade.

Stage 4: Finding Duncan Months later, on a chilly Friday evening in February 2004, sitting in a windowless conference room at the Hyatt Hotel in the Orlando International Airport, we met Lewis Duncan, dean of the Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth College. Our conversation with him was the first of 10 more conversations we would have over the course of three days with 10 remarkable men and women, each knowing that becoming president of Rollins College would be a professional coup. What then, you surely are asking, set Lewis Duncan above the other fine candidates we met with that weekend? Lewis Duncan is a rare bird, for sure. Even in an aviary of high-powered, impeccably trained academic specimens, he has many more beautiful feathers than most. He is a scholar, an intellectual, an engaging thinker; he is a curricular innovator and a talented teacher; he is a knowledgeable, articulate, and forwardthinking defender of the liberal arts; he has demonstrated success in development; he is a savvy manager, a consensus builder among divisive and diverse groups. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Rare and wonderful qualities, to be sure. But when it comes to choosing a president for the institution that you love, a place you have given much of your life to and have such very high hopes for, such qualifications are simply a requirement, not a luxury. In the search for our lead-bird, we were in the enviable position of being picky. We were looking for something that we knew wouldn’t be discernable in the written materials, that special quality that distinguishes excellence within a group of highly qualified peers. In the end, we knew that visionary leadership cannot be quantified, classified, objectified. There was some additional quality, some mysterious element, we wanted to see in our next president—something we struggled to put into words: passion? intensity? engagement?

creativity? vision? We danced around and around trying to identify it. Let’s just call it the X-Factor. And then, somehow, amazingly, at the end of our conversation with Lewis Duncan on that Friday night at the Hyatt Hotel, we knew we had just spent two hours with a person possessed of that quality. And though I’m not able to put a word to that quality, I can tell you what the effect of it was on the whole group. We left that conference room wanting to be better people ourselves. We left energized and hopeful. We left even more deeply committed to the powerful work Rollins College is doing in the world. The work of training minds, and opening hearts, and leading young people to engage intelligently, compassionately, even wisely, with a complex and challenging world. Here are three characteristics Dr. Duncan demonstrated for us over the course of the several visits we had with him. These qualities, in part, define the Duncan X-Factor. 1. A wide-ranging intellect. As we listened to Dr. Duncan talk in that first interview, I think every member of the committee was struck by his remarkable understanding of the history of ideas and of how the liberal arts tradition is driven by that history. He spoke eloquently about liberal education in a classical sense, and also described liberal education in the light of 21st-century geopolitical, social, and cultural structures. Of all the candidates we reviewed, Lewis Duncan (a rocket scientist!) spoke most passionately, most clearly, and most innovatively about liberal education. 2. A genuine interest in pursuing knowledge, understanding, and wisdom with young people. As the interview continued, Dr. Duncan showed how much he loves leading students into his world of ideas. He spoke of his own teaching, his informal conversations and interactions with students, his involvement in campus life. The student members of the committee were beaming. He told us about his own rich intellectual life, his development of new courses, his research, and most interestingly to us, his annual challenge to immerse himself in a week-long study of something entirely new. 3. Finally, a profound sense of the challenges of our future on this planet, for us especially demonstrated in the course he teaches called “Technology and the Future of Human Society.”

Who are we? What is good for us? How shall we conduct ourselves? What can/must we become? These are the questions that have shaped the liberal tradition for centuries. Lewis Duncan showed us the importance of addressing those questions to our future, as well as to our past. In his welcoming lecture to the Dartmouth Class of 2004, he said: “Ours is a world in transformation, a world of changes that—perhaps within the lifetimes of our children—promise to eclipse all others in the accumulated history of our civilization.” As the committee deliberated, calling upon the collective intellect and intuition of the various constituencies we represented, we recognized Lewis Duncan as the president to walk with us into the brave new world. And you know what? On March 19, 2004, when Lewis Duncan was formally announced as Rollins’ 14th president, I was standing out on the Jane Moore Johnson Plaza in front of the Cornell Campus Center cheering him with the rest of the Rollins community, feeling oh-sorelieved to be finished with the six-month-long search, and actually thanking Barry Levis for putting my name on that ballot. ■

Three major hurricanes in six weeks. It sounds like the plot of a really bad disaster movie, but it also sums up how Rollins’ new president, Dr. Lewis Duncan, was forced to spend a fair amount of his first two months at the College. The Rollins Alumni Record was going to press as Hurricane Jeanne drove through Central Florida, only three weeks after Hurricane Frances and the writing of this article.

riday the 13th…ah, the irony! Just 10 days before Rollins College was set to open up the 2004-05 academic year, Mother Nature had other plans…and her name was Charley. Rollins’ Emergency Operations Plan Team closely monitored the progress of Hurricane Charley as it approached Florida’s southwest coast. Approximately 150 early-arrival students and essential Rollins personnel were moved to the security of the Cornell Campus Center that afternoon, where they remained until Saturday morning, August 14, after the hurricane had passed. Thankfully, there were no injuries and only minimal damage to the campus. Due to sustained loss of electricity, however, Rollins had to make quick adjustments for the new academic year. Orientation for new students, the return of upperclass students, and the start of classes were delayed. Following the hurricane, telephone and electronic communication was limited, so a “grassroots” communications effort was put into effect. Rollins’ new President, Lewis Duncan, calmly rallied the troops, made swift decisions, and empowered students to get things done. Under the guidance of Student Involvement & Leadership, 64 Peer Mentors made personal phone calls to every new and returning student to advise them of the new schedule. Student Government Association President Pierce Neinken ’06 and a team of students handed out informational fliers to campus visitors to help facilitate communication. Fliers were also posted in key locations and the main campus phone line was used to provide updated information. For those with electricity and access to the

Internet, the Rollins College Web site supplied online status updates. “I cannot even begin to tell you how impressed I was with the way the community came together to get through one of Rollins’ toughest times,” said Sarah Ledbetter ’05, past SGA president. “I will never forget the experience for as long as I live—it was surreal. If there’s anything I’ve learned in this, it’s that we’ve got a great family here, and no matter what happens, we can get through it one way or another.” It went so well, in fact, that students had joked with President Duncan afterward about making the event an annual tradition. But as Hurricane Frances made her way toward the state of Florida, it seemed unthinkable that Mother Nature could make it a monthly tradition. It had been just three weeks since Hurricane Charley had slammed into Central Florida—the eye passing right over Orlando. Charley’s arrival was fast and furious. He hit in the middle of the night with hurricane-force winds that left the City of Winter Park and

surrounding areas with months of cleanup work. The tree debris still lined many of the area streets. But here came Frances—a massive hurricane the size of the state of Texas—lumbering her way toward us. Rollins College now found itself faced with a familiar yet far greater challenge: this time, classes were in full swing and 1,100 students occupied the residence halls. Most students left campus, but nearly 300 Rollins students, faculty, staff, and community members spent the night in the Bush Science Center, which was dubbed the “Bush Hotel and Resort.” Movies, games, and an “Internet café” helped to pass the time. Frances was crawling so slowly that at one point she almost seemed suspended offshore. The eye passed south of Orlando and Winter Park, sparing the area from significant damage, but it took more than a full day to be completely free of hurricane- and tropical-storm-force winds.

Two distinctly different experiences, yet two very similar instances where the Rollins community came together in true Rollins fashion. Perhaps Lewis Duncan said it best as he readied College personnel to face Frances: “It is in trying times that true character comes out…and the character of this community is remarkable.” —Ann Marie Varga ’82

Rollins appreciates the special efforts of: The Facilities staff, for their tireless and swift cleanup efforts; the Dining Services crew, for keeping students, essential personnel, and the Winter Park Police and Fire Departments well fed despite the challenges of limited electrical service and an ice shortage after Hurricane Charley; the Information Technology team, for getting systems up and operational so quickly; and the Residential Life staff and Campus Safety officers, for working diligently to keep our students safe.

The Amateurs & the Authors

For more than 65 years, Rollins College has hosted an award-winning visiting authors series, which brings distinguished writers and poets to campus to share their work and expertise with students and the community. Last spring’s series, “Winter With the Writers: A Festival of the Literary Arts,” was directed by renowned author Connie May Fowler, who joined the College last year as Irving Bacheller Chair of Creative Writing. The following article, which appeared in the Orlando Sentinel, takes a look at this innovative program, which brought four noted authors to Rollins in 2004, including Kaye Gibbons, Silas House, Sena Jeter Naslund, and Diana Abu-Jaber. On the lineup for 2005 are authors Barbara Robinette Moss, Denise Duhamel, Edward P. Jones, and Michael Ondaatje. The Winter With the Writes program is sponsored by the Department of English and the Thomas P. Johnson Distinguished Visiting Authors Fund.

her story. And it’s why she’s terrified by what he might say next. Jones hears House’s voice. It seems to come from close up and yet a long way off. Her tan face flushes as pink as her earrings. Omigod. He’s talking about her.

students get to know writers intimately as they learn to perfect the fine craft of storytelling—and put in some sweat equity. Colette Jones claims not to be nervous. But she knows that 50 pairs of eyes have sighted her blond head in the fifth row of Bush Auditorium at Rollins College on a recent Thursday afternoon. She plays with her pink chandelier earring with her right hand and tries to concentrate on what author Silas House is saying onstage. The words are familiar. After all, they

are her words. She wrote them, strung them into sentences, crafted them into paragraphs. They tell a story. Her story. Fiction, yes. But still a story she wrote in private. And now House is reading part of that story in public. The story is about a young woman who recently had a baby and now has identity issues. Jones has been there—the young mother part, anyway—but she has known since the age of 5 that she wanted to be a writer. It’s why she’s taking an advanced writing class at Rollins, even though she already has a degree in English from Tulane. It’s why she’s thrilled that House is reading

Flash back two weeks to the patio outside Rollins’ Orlando Hall, where Jones sits with 16 other hand-picked students enrolled in an innovative course taught by award-winning writer Connie May Fowler. Officially, it’s English 467: Winter With the Writers Internship. But it’s really more like a reality-based television show, a literary version of The Apprentice. No one’s going to get fired, but everyone’s going to be graded—on projects as mundane as putting up posters and as glamorous as guiding visiting writers around the Winter Park campus. Call it: So You Want to be a Writer. “I’ve never taught a class like this—I don’t know anything else like it—so I don’t really know what to expect,” says Fowler, a visiting creative-writing professor at Rollins. “We’re sort of making this up as we go along.” As an acclaimed novelist and memoirist (Before Women Had Wings, When Katie Wakes), Fowler has been a featured author at numerous literary festivals and conferences, including Rollins’ prestigious series. “It’s wonderful to have someone to meet you at the plane, because here you are in this strange place and you see someone holding up your book,” she tells the students, who are taking notes and nodding their heads. “And hey, when you get in the car, here’s your chance to ask questions and tell the writers how much you love their books.” Fowler grins. “Writers love to be fawned over and have their work spoken of highly.” FALL 2004 19

The students grin back. Blue-jeaned legs drape over chair arms, and the afternoon sun dapples the tables, where textbooks for the course are scattered. They are five noels by the four visiting writers—Four Spirits by Sena Jeter Naslund, Parchment of Leaves by Silas House, Crescent by Diana Abu-Jaber, and Ellen Foster and Charms for the Easy Life, both by Kaye Gibbons. The students read the books during Christmas break. Part of their internship will be helping Fowler teach a literature course based on the Winter With the Writers books. In addition, the 12 interns will have their stories critiqued and discussed by the visiting writers. The other five will have their writing “workshopped” by Fowler and the class in the spring. They also will see what goes into putting together a writers program as they help Fowler plan for 2005. Telling Stories Jones, a transplanted New Yorker, moved to Central Florida seven years ago for her husband’s job at Merrill Lynch. At 30, she is one of several older, returning students in the intern class. “I decided it was time to pursue my oldest and most elusive dream,” she says. Ditto for Darlyn Finch, who took the Winter With the Writers literature class several years ago. She jumped at the opportunity to be an intern, even though it meant begging her boss for the time off during the day from her full-time job at Siemens Westinghouse. “Each author has a spellbinding gift with words, and I am giddy at the thought of being in the room with them while they teach their art,” says Finch. Like Jones, she’s wanted to be a writer from an early age, ever since she wrote a story titled “Arthur the Antelope” and illustrated it with crayon. Others see benefits beyond trying to turn dreams into reality. Cora Hardin isn’t even an English major, but she thinks writing skills will carry over into whatever profession she ends up in. “If it is true that we learn for life and 20 ROLLINS ALUMNI RECORD

not for school, well, then this class is the best thing that could happen to me,” she says. “It seems to provide the perfect balance between intellectual stimulation and just pure fun.” That’s the goal, Fowler says—to learn and to have fun learning. But first, there are chores. Someone needs to help write fliers. Christina Jeffrey raises her hand. She also volunteers to type in the opening—no more than five pages— of Parchment of Leaves so it can be posted on the program’s Web site. That’s invaluable training, Fowler says. “If you want to really understand a writer’s voice, type in a few chapters of their work sometime,” she says. “It’s a whole different experience that just reading it, or even hearing it read. It’s an exercise in craft.” Other assignments are handed out. Laura van den Berg is going to try and snag author interviews on campus radio. “One never knows what opportunities might emerge from one moment, one meeting, one comment, a mention of a certain book, or a place that moved you,” she says. Committees are appointed to decorate Bush Auditorium. The interns will act as ushers. “We want to get people up front near the writers,” Fowler says. “None of the audience sitting in different ZIP codes. Do you know how awful that is for an author to come out on stage and see that?” No, they don’t know, but maybe they will someday, when they become authors.

In Bush Auditorium, Jones’ eyes are riveted on House as he stands in front of the Masterpiece Theatre setting the students have arranged on stage—a heavy leather chair and a floor lamp. He looks calm and carefree. Her stomach is doing flip-flops as he renders his verdict. “This story has a strong narrative voice,” says House, his voice steeped in the mountains of his eastern Kentucky home. “Anyone can sit down and string words together in a clever way, but it takes a real storyteller to create a voice and a character.” Jones squirms. But she can’t hide a slight smile as House, with two acclaimed novels to his credit and a new book in the works, continues to address the class. He is impressed with the Rollins course and students. “The stories I read didn’t read like undergraduate work,” he says. “I see a lot of potential.” Afterward, Jones waits in line to meet House and collect her manuscript. He already has made one suggestion “to punch up the ending,” but she wants to go over the detailed critique. “Oh, it was exciting and embarrassing hearing my words spoken on stage,” she says. “I tried not to look nervous, but I could feel myself turning red.” She tugs on the strap of her pink-andblack dress and looks toward House, who is chatting with the students. She is ready to power up her laptop. “It means everything to have the encouragement of a talented and successful author,” Jones says. “If I ever turn this 20page story into the novel I want it to be, I’ll say a little thank you to Silas House.”

To help spread the good news, each issue of the Rollins Alumni Record features “Alumni of Note.” If you know of any alumni who should be spotlighted, please contact the Alumni Relations office at 1-800-799-ALUM, or e-mail us at alumni@rollins.edu.

Leslie Jones ’92 Leslie Jones’ Diary ■ Sometimes life leads us down unexpected paths that we’d never envision for ourselves. Even those with overactive imaginations might not readily concoct dreams of traipsing across the globe for a major TV network. So if you think it would be heady and exciting to work at NBC in New York, just ask Leslie Jones about her experience. Unlike other TV executives, this Illinois native never harbored any serious television ambitions at a young age. A tennis scholarship brought her to Rollins College as a sophomore transfer. And as an economics major, her desire was to use her degree to work in a field that would allow her to delve into international affairs. Life had other plans for the moment. Upon graduating magna cum laude from Rollins, she set out for Southern Methodist University in Dallas, where she obtained her MBA in 1994. During graduate school, she began working for a small, yet bustling, sports marketing company that was partially owned by NBC Sports. After graduating from SMU, Jones was offered a job at NBC Sports in New York. “I found myself with what others would see as a glamorous job working on everything from NFL to NBA marketing projects,” she explained. “Of course, the flip side was that I was staying with friends and sleeping on a couch—New York City rent isn’t cheap.” While at NBC Sports, Jones had the opportunity to assist with the marketing efforts of the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta. Working on such an international event gave her the experience needed to set her up for her next success at NBC: a position in international program sales for the network. New challenges arose with a quick move to L.A. and a whole new set of issues in selling American shows into syndication in

overseas markets. “Will and Grace, a leading-edge irreverent comedy, was a tricky sell in the Middle Eastern market,” Jones said. “Once we were able to show that homosexuality was referred to, but never blatantly exhibited, then things improved, although they still do censor certain shows.” Cultural awareness and understanding is key to conducting business internationally, she explained. “I love the diversity of my job—dealing with people from different backgrounds and ultimately realizing that there are so many common denominators between us.” Now, back in New York City, Jones still finds herself in a new area of the globe each month— London, Sydney, or Paris—selling scripted and non-scripted (“Reality TV”) programming worldwide. She handles selling everything from NBC News, which entails selling coverage to negotiating safe houses for journalists, to selling syndication rights to wildly popular hits like Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. “It’s really funny because I still don’t think my parents know exactly what I do—I think they think I sell ads overseas or something,” she chuckled. Thanks to Jones’ diligent and savvy efforts, Queer Eye for the 2004 Olympics Straight Guy can be seen in over 102 countries. Additionally, there are currently 15 international versions of the show (yes, if you visit Spain or Denmark, you can actually see the Spanish or Danish version of the show). Oh, and it all seems like just another day at work for the unassuming 33-year-old vice president of international sales and production. “Honestly, I never planned to be where I am today—I feel lucky to have been able to hop into different experiences at NBC and learn something valuable from each of them. Who knows where I’ll be in the future.” —Zaida Rios FALL 2004 21

Harriet Atlass “Sis” Kaplan ’55 FromTomakan to Broadcast Radio ■ Radio has been very good to Sis Kaplan ’55. She’s spent the better part of her adult life working at or owning radio stations. This spunky past president of Gamma Phi Beta never let the fact that she was a woman prevent her from exploring a variety of opportunities that tended to present themselves to her male counterparts first. With a Rollins dual degree in psychology and sociology in hand, Kaplan returned home to Chicago after graduation to embark on a rather event-filled and satisfying career. She landed a position at WBBM and WBBM-TV, the then-CBS-owned-andoperated Chicago stations. “I started out as a gopher, plain and simple, and worked my way up to public affairs programming, where I produced a series of new shows,” she explained. Never one to let an opportunity pass by, Kaplan took a bold leap when Aaron Cushman & Associates, a public relations and advertising agency, recruited her to coordinate their programming for the Chicago White Sox, working primarily with the organization’s Bill Beck. Here was where Kaplan experienced a crash course in baseball as well as chutzpah. In the early ’60s, it was relatively unheard of for a woman to be involved in sports news in any capacity at all. “There’s no doubt it was challenging for me. You have to realize they didn’t even let women in the press boxes back then, let alone the locker room,” she said. “And yet Bill and Aaron were so incredibly supportive that I was able to carve out a challenging career there.”

Things took an even better turn when she met her future husband, Stan Kaplan, at a broadcasting convention in Chicago. Within less than a year, she found herself adjusting quite nicely to married life in Boston and working for an ad agency there. “In less than a year after we were married, Stan and I bought a radio station and moved to Charlotte,” Kaplan said. “We later bought a station in Florida and started a weekly newspaper called The Leader.” It never surprised Kaplan that she would inevitably work in broadcast and print journalism. “Back in college, I always had an affinity for journalism,” she said. “After all, I worked a bit on the Sandspur doing layout and was the editor of the Tomokan, the Rollins yearbook.” These days, after an illustrious career in broadcasting, Kaplan is content to slow down and enjoy the simple things. “Now my grandchildren are my biggest priority—my daughter and son-in-law have two girls, and my step-daughter has two boys,” she said. When asked to pinpoint the highlight of her career, Kaplan replied, “Wow—there were so many highlights, it’s hard to choose one.” Her grandkids will no doubt love hearing the stories of her days in radio and television, especially as the first woman to be in the Chicago White Sox locker room! —Zaida Rios

Paul N. White-Davis ’94 Legal Eagle ■ You don’t need to realize your ultimate career path while you’re still wet behind the ears, but sometimes it really helps. Take Paul White-Davis, for instance. His inspiration to become an attorney came to him while ambling the halls of middle school. Then, while in high school, an article hailing the merits of a liberal arts education for future lawyers propelled him to seek out just the right school. With the encouragement of his parents, White-Davis chose Rollins. “In retrospect, I think my parents were just jockeying for me to stay close to home,” laughed the Orlando resident, who is originally from New York. “In the end, I was the one who substantially benefited from the experience.” Paul isn’t the only White-Davis who was smitten with Rollins—his sister, Tanya White-Davis, graduated from the College in 2000 with a biology degree; his cousin, Nadine White-Davis graduated from Rollins in 1999 with a psychology degree; and his father, Karl White-Davis, was an adjunct professor in economics at the Hamilton Holt School. After attending the University of Miami School of Law, Whie-Davis ventured into practice with a sole practitioner, and then quickly moved to working as a prosecutor at the State Attorney’s office in Orlando. As fate would have it, one of his best Rollins buddies, Amir Ladan ’94 (also an alum from UM Law School), was a fellow prosecutor at the State 22 ROLLINS ALUMNI RECORD

Attorney’s office. “I met Amir my first day at Rollins at Orientation in front of Ward Hall, and we’ve been friends ever since,” White-Davis explained. “I was in his wedding, and we remain very close after all these years.” The State Attorney’s office was a wonderful training ground for honing White-Davis’ skills as a trial attorney. “I gained a tremendous sense of purpose and personal satisfaction from my work there. It’s a great place for anyone who wants to be involved in public service—I think many of us started out as young idealists there,” he said. Nowadays, White-Davis is a workers’ compensation defense attorney for Rissman, Weisberg, Barrett, Hurt, Donahue & McLain, P.A. Despite a hectic schedule, he remains very committed to helping others advance, regardless of their personal circumstances. Currently, he is a mentor for a gifted student at Jones High School. “I really feel privileged to be involved in his life, and it gives me great satisfaction to know I’m making a definite impact—I took him on his first college interview!” White-Davis said. Being an advocate just seems to come naturally to White-Davis, who’s also very active with the Central Florida Caribbean Bar Association for lawyers of Caribbean descent. White-Davis, whose family hails from Jamaica, has assisted the organization with working on immigration issues and a voter registration drive to give those in the Caribbean community a voice. Just another one of the many ways in which he has committed his life’s work to making a difference for others. —Zaida Rios

Robin Wunderlich Williams ’75 Inviting MS patients to laugh ■ “Well, it certainly helps people remember me!” said Robin Williams when asked about the reaction people have to her name. This Robin Williams, however—1975 Rollins graduate Robin Wunderlich Williams—while not a comedian, invites Multiple Sclerosis patients to find moments in their lives when they can laugh. Since being diagnosed with MS in 1998, Williams hasn’t stopped thinking about MS—but not out of personal concern. She focuses daily on helping people with the disease, and has touched thousands of lives in doing so. Shortly after her diagnosis, Williams’ neurologist asked her to speak to other newly diagnosed patients. She researched as much as she could about the disease and services available to MS patients and quickly became aware of the lack of available social care for people and families living with the disease. She heard hundreds of stories about the challenges faced by MS patients. For instance, 85 percent of marriages end after the individual is diagnosed. People lose their jobs. “I can’t just sit around and be one of the numbers. I have to do something about this,” she concluded. After much thought, prayer, and many conversations with her doctor and key members of the community, Williams decided to start a foundation to provide comprehensive services for people with MS. The MS Centers of Florida Foundation opened its doors in Vero

Beach in 2002. To date, Williams has opened six offices in Florida and one in Puerto Rico. “It’s not just me. There are so many wonderful individuals who have given to the cause and who truly want to help,” Williams said. Among her dearest friends are the individuals who attend the “Circle of Hope” support-group meetings held at her house every month. While she believes she can’t focus her whole life on the disease, she says the gatherings are her opportunity to dive into a focused discussion that leaves her relaxed and able to go back to the Foundation to help others. One of the Foundation’s many services is a guest-speaker series, which has included a horticulturalist who helped patients garden, a chef who explained how to make six meals with three ingredients, and a meditation expert who helped attendees learn to relax. Williams, who majored in education and served as rush chair for Kappa Kappa Gamma, said her ability to educate is one of the benefits she derived from attending Rollins. Meeting her husband, Andy [’74 ’75MBA], was another. While Williams calls herself a volunteer, she is chairman of the Foundation’s board of directors and, amongst a multitude of activities, writes a column for the organization’s monthly newsletter. One column, titled “An Invitation to Laugh,” tells the story of a letter Williams received shortly after her diagnosis. It was from the Muscular Dystrophy National Foundation, alerting her that a donation had been made in her memory. “Not only was I holding a notification confirming my death; I died of the wrong disease!” she chuckled. She still keeps that letter on her desk as a constant reminder to laugh. —Tania S. Calderon ’03MLS

Sonny Everett ’55 The Bright Fuzzy Lights of Broadway ■ Whoever thinks puppets are strictly for kids and Muppet Show reruns has never seen the likes of the Tony-awarding winning musical Avenue Q. Go ahead and abandon thoughts of soft fluffy benevolent creatures and replace them with the irreverence of South Park combined with the quirkiness and originality of That ’70s Show, and you’re way more on target. Avenue Q features a motley group of 20-something puppets struggling to make it in the big city. The play’s lead producer, Kevin McCollum, whose credits include Rent and La Boheme, invited Sonny Everett to a reading, and Everett was hooked. “It was hilarious, and I knew that something like this would be a welcome hit on Broadway,” Everett said. As a talented and savvy producer with producing credits on 16 Broadway and off-Broadway shows, Everett seems to possess a knack for inherently knowing what will captivate an audience. The show has been a hit with audiences as well as celebrities (Avenue Q made the much-coveted Entertainment Weekly’s It List) and it even piqued the interest of Steven Wynn, real estate magnate and owner of the world-famous Bellagio, who has recently purchased rights to the show out west and plans to build an 1,100-seat theater specifically designed for Avenue Q at his newest hotel. Despite the show’s popularity, Avenue Q was still the underdog amongst more mammoth budget productions such as Wicked. “We were like the little engine that could and we were

truly stunned and elated to receive the Tony for best musical,” Everett said. “The moment that Sarah Jessica Parker called out our name for best musical, we all raced down the aisle—it was magical and yet very surreal. I’d definitely say that it was the highlight of my career as a producer.” Winning a Tony award is not too bad for someone who got a late-blooming start in the Broadway theatrical scene. Back in his Rollins days, Everett was a sociology major who had minored in theater, participating in several productions. After graduation, he moved to Tampa and began working in the insurance industry. A 20-year hiatus from the theater world ensued until he uprooted himself to New York City, where he rekindled his love of the theater. And although Everett still remains in the insurance industry specializing in entertainment insurance for theater productions, films, and special events, his passion remains deeply engrained in the theater. His next plum project is an adaptation of the perennial movie favorite, White Christmas. “During show rehearsals, everyone sort of got a tear in their eye during the rendition of “White Christmas”…it’s going to be a spectacular show.” Even the most jaded cynic won’t be able to resist sentimentally dreaming of a white Christmas—just like the ones they used to know. —Zaida Rios FALL 2004 23

AMAZING ALICE ■ ALICE DYE ’48 Alice Dye [’48], whose golf career has included capturing national amateur championships, serving at the game’s highest administrative levels and influencing modern golf architectural design to better serve players of all abilities, has been named recipient of the 2004 PGA First Lady of Golf Award. A native of Indianapolis, Ind., Dye was honored May 26, 2004 in a ceremony at The Kentucky Center’s Bomhard Theater in Louisville, Ky. The ceremony was in conjunction with the 65th Senior PGA Championship week, May 24-30, at Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville. “Alice Dye’s passion for the game of golf is infectious and serves as an example for all who cherish the game and its future,” said PGA of America President M.G. Orender. “Alice has achieved success both on and off the golf course, and has extended her career of service through tireless efforts in both architecture and serving with industry leaders to expand the accessibility to the game for women golfers. The PGA of America is very proud to present her with its PGA First Lady of Golf Award.” Introduced to golf at age 11 by her father, the late Perry O’Neal, Dye began a lifetime love affair with the game that would lead her to winning 50 amateur titles, including two USGA Senior Women’s Amateur Championships, two Canadian Senior Women’s Championships, nine Indiana Women’s Amateur and three Florida Women’s Amateur titles, competing on the 1970 Curtis Cup Team and serving as captain of the 1992 Women’s World Cup. Dye met her husband, golf architect Pete Dye [’50], following World War II at Rollins College in Winter Park, Fla., where she graduated in 1948 and later received an honorary doctoral degree in 2002. The Dyes married in 1950 and have collaborated on the design of many of America’s premier golf courses. Their first joint effort was El Dorado, now Royal Oak Country Club in Greenwood, Ind. They have since co-designed such courses as PGA West in La Quinta, Calif.; The Ocean Course in Kiawah Island, S.C.; Harbour Town Golf Links in Hilton Head, S.C.; Crooked Stick Golf Club in Carmel, Ind.; and The Dye Course at PGA Golf Club in Port St. Lucie, Fla. The partnership evolved into Alice contributing her expertise to make more courses manageable for the woman player. She led a successful campaign to have “forward tees” added to new courses nationwide.

Dye was the first woman to serve as an independent director of The PGA of America (1999-2002), the first woman president of the American Society of Golf Course Architects, and she is a past member of the USGA Women’s Committee and LPGAAdvisory Council. She currently serves on the Women’s Western Amateur Board of Directors. Dye’s previous career honors include being a member of the Indiana Sports Hall of Fame, an honorary member of the Indiana PGASection, and a recipient of the Women’s Western Golf Association Woman of Distinction Award. Additionally, Pete and Alice Dye funded a pilot program at Purdue University, Golf: For Business & Life, which has since grown into a premier PGA Growth of the Game initiative operating at 35 colleges and universities nationwide. The program is taught by PGA professionals, who instruct college juniors, seniors and graduate students in the basic skills, etiquette, and terminology of golf. “I am most honored to be selected by The PGAof America for this award,” said Dye. “I fell in love with golf from the start, and have worked my whole life to promote the game and particularly women’s golf. Throughout this journey, I have been blessed by having the guidance of many PGA Professionals, who encouraged me in my game and guided me, serving as mentors to help make me a better person. “I have met so many great people in the game and have had the opportunity to express to young people how golf teaches you life skills and that the game can help make all of us better citizens. I believe that you never truly leave the game of golf. You may not be out on the course every day, but if you have played golf and understand its challenges and its joys, you may continue to watch it, pick up a magazine, and follow the great people who are part of the game and its history.” Alice and Pete Dye live in Indianapolis and Delray Beach, Fla. They are the parents of two sons, both golf architects: Perry Dye of Denver, Colo., and Paul (P.B.) Dye of Wellington, Fla. —Reprinted by permission of The PGA of America

ALUMNI BOARD PROFILE LARRY LAVALLE ’59 Native New Yorker Larry Lavalle ’59 moved down to Central Florida to start College at Rollins at age 17. “I fell in love with Rollins, and then with Florida, and I never left,” he said. After graduation, the English major found himself in what he recalls as “an uneventful and boring banking life in Winter Park.” One of his customers, fellow alumnus Chappy McDonald ’56, entertainer, restaurateur, and legal eagle, suggested that Lavalle attend law school. McDonald then helped Lavalle get into the Stetson College of Law in St. Petersburg. After three years in law school and a one-year federal appointment as a clerk for a U.S. District Court Judge, Lavalle moved his family to the Southeast coast of Florida. He opened his own general law practice, eventually specializing in family law, and practiced law in Boca Raton for 25 successful years. “Majoring in English was good preparation for practicing law,” Lavalle reflected. “Once a legal concept got through my thick head, I never had any problem communicating it verbally or in writing!” Lavalle enjoyed his years at Rollins, especially the intimacy of the classes and the campus (he had come from a New York City high school of 6,000). “There were so many things that surprised me,” he recalled. “It was certainly a slice of life that I never knew existed. I was far from sophisticated…and just to hear Southern accents was intriguing.” Lavalle had roommates from Boston to California and met students for the first time from Europe and Latin America. “My freshman year was the first year that soccer was played at Rollins. Nine out of 10 of the soccer players were European or Latin American because soccer wasn’t widely played in America,” he said. “In hindsight, it was amazing that Rollins went down to the University of Havana prior to the Castro takeover for a soccer match.” For Lavalle, the Rollins experience was a highlight in his life. “It was almost like a dream,” he said. “The Eisenhower years was an era without controversy. World War II had ended a decade before, it was a few years after the Korean War, and it was well before the Vietnam War. It was a time of peace and prosperity.”

An interesting time in the history of the world— and an interesting time in Rollins history. “The very first Fox Day was held during my freshman year,” Lavalle said. “It Lavalle and daughter Maria was such a surprise. There’s no comparison—that’s my fondest memory.” Lavalle also enjoyed the Pelican, a large rambling beach house on New Smyrna Beach, then owned by Rollins (the College had received the house as a donation). Each fraternity and sorority would enjoy the use of the Pelican two weekends a year (with faculty chaperones, of course). Over the years, Lavalle has stayed in touch with many of his Rollins friends, and with Rollins. He has attended many Reunions, and he regularly visits Sigma Nu fraternity brother Mo Cody ’59, who lives in Nova Scotia. A member of the Rollins Alumni Board for six years, Lavalle is enjoying the diversity of his fellow alumni leaders. “Most of them are considerably younger than I am,” he said. “It is such a dynamic group that’s not afraid of innovation. Personally, I’m excited about the Board’s interest in revitalizing Reunion and increasing attendance by trying something new with fall Homecoming. I have such a lifelong fondness for Rollins that I can’t imagine someone not feeling that way.” Today, when he isn’t busy with his three children and two grandchildren, staying in touch with the law firm, or playing racquetball, Lavalle enjoys traveling with his wife of 42 years, Mary. And the two are an adventurous pair. “I don’t like tours,” he said. “It is much better to explore at your own pace.” So far, Ireland ranks at the top of the list, followed closely by Italy, Germany, and a variety of landmarks in the United States. One of the other reasons Lavalle likes the flexibility of planning his own trips is because he gets to “look up Rollins friends as we travel along the way.” Luckily for Rollins, those travels often bring him home to the campus he fell in love with more than 45 years ago. —Ann Marie Varga ’82

DALE INGMANSON ’60 ■ CALIFORNIA DREAMIN’ A snowstorm sent Dr. Dale Ingmanson ’60 and his wife, the former Sally Zuengler ’62, to California. It was the mid 1960s—he’d been teaching earth science at Southern Connecticut State College; she was working as a TWA flight attendant based in New York City. Returning to the U.S. from Madrid at Christmastime, the young couple came home to a blizzard. They decided to escape, hopped a flight to California, and booked a motel room in La Jolla overlooking the Pacific. Enjoying the surf from their rocky vantage point just above the beach and feasting on freshly caught steamed mussels and champagne, the two were charmed by the California lifestyle. Ingmanson, armed with a master’s degree from Rutgers and an Ed.D. from the University of Florida, accepted a teaching position at San Diego State University (SDSU). Sally transferred her home base with the airline, and the couple relocated in fall of 1968. Ingmanson met Sally at Rollins. After graduation, he “chased her to New York City,” he explained, ultimately catching her and proposing. They now have a home in Escondido, a mountain retreat in Idyllwild, and two children—Gretchen, a 1991 Rollins graduate, and Sonja, an SDSU graduate. Ingmanson began his career teaching science at Howard Junior High School in Orlando before going on to the University of Florida. When he first taught undergraduatelevel oceanography, popular among business majors and other non-science types for fulfilling the science requirement at SDSU, no textbooks existed on the subject. Consequently, he collaborated with William Wallace to write Oceanography: An Introduction, which eventually appeared in five editions and sold more than 100,000 copies. The Ingmansons lived in Brazil from 19721974, after Ingmanson received a United States Agency for Internal Development grant

In the ’80s, he performed groundbreaking research on the chemical precursors to life in the Red Sea Brines. In 1999, he received a Fulbright Scholar Award to do research in Portugal. “I met many of my lifelong friends at Rollins,” Ingmanson said. “As a member of the Rollins Players, I greatly enjoyed my involvement with the Theatre Department. My soccer teammate, Elias Taylor [’62], who came to the College as an exchange student from Greece, is still one of my best friends.” Among the numerous honors bestowed on Ingmanson over the course of his career are the Award for Outstanding Contribution to Science Education in 1995 and a Fulbright Senior Scholar Award for his work in Portugal in 1999. Ingmanson, who most recently was a professor of teacher education at SDSU, and Sally, who taught computer science at Grossmont College, are now retired from teaching.

ELEANOR KENYON ’60 ’65MAT ■ TEACHER OF HISTORY AND STUDENT OF PEACE A passion for teaching makes Rollins alumnus Eleanor “Ele” Kenyon ’60 ’65MAT one of America’s most highly regarded teachers, while her passion for peace and thirst for knowledge makes her one of life’s most humble students. Kenyon, who came to Rollins to complete undergraduate studies begun in Ohio, received her bachelor’s degree in education in 1960. She then continued on at Rollins, earning her master’s degree in education five years later. Recognized in 1988 by the National Education Association for her outstanding 28-year career, Kenyon credits Rollins with teaching her a most valuable job skill. “What made me a successful teacher was what I learned in a methods course at Rollins,” she said. “I was taught in the methods of teaching to ask questions. So, that’s how I began teaching. I didn’t tell the students anything. They had the textbook to read and I asked them questions. And after they’d answer, I’d ask, ‘Then what happens?’ They learned to think.” Since retiring in 1988 from teaching American history at Boone High School in Orlando, this 82-year-old great-grandmother has kept a happily busy schedule. Among her activities is an active membership with the Florida Coalition for Peace and Justice, an organization that advocates “peaceful means to social change” and holds its annual meeting at Rollins.

“Everything I do is for peace and justice— its my whole thing,” she said. Kenyon was giddy with excitement when describing a life-changing event she attended last year hosted by Church Women United, a national movement of Protestant, Roman Catholic, Orthodox, and other Christian women. “Jewish and Muslim women showed up at the meeting, and I thought, ‘My gosh, I don’t know any Muslims, and here they are with us.’ I thought we should get acquainted and get to know each other better.” As a result of this experience, she founded an Orlando-based group with a similar focus named Women For Peace, which unites women of various faiths to discuss their backgrounds and beliefs. “All the women are very astute, friendly, warm, and congenial, regardless of their religious faith,” said Kenyon of her fellow participants. “I now have Muslim friends!” Her affectionate outreach to others is deeply rooted in this Buffalo, New York native. “As a little girl, I went to Sunday school and I learned the Golden Rule. I think that was very important in my life—the lesson to love one another.” — Vickie Pleus

DR. JOSEPH PORTOGHESE ’79 ■ PHYSICIAN ON A MISSION Dr. Joseph Portoghese ’79 is a Rollins College alumnus who truly exemplifies in his daily life one of the guiding principles of Rollins: active citizenship. Raised and educated in Central Florida, today Portoghese is a partner with Surgical Associates of Winter Park, a prominent surgical group that has served the Central Florida community for more than 30 years. A noted surgeon, dedicated patient advocate, and leader in healthcare, he was selected by his peers and featured as one of Central Florida’s Top Doctors in Orlando Magazine in 2002. Portoghese said he became a doctor to make a difference in people’s lives, and he has touched the lives of countless Central Floridians. Known well to young medical residents, he speaks to them about “The Service of Medicine vs. the Practice of Medicine.” And he walks the talk in his community and beyond, having participated in mission trips to Peru with the Florida Hospital SHARES International Medical Missions for Children to make a difference in the world. Dr. Frank Stieg, a colleague on a recent mission trip, shared the following story about Portoghese: “We were more than 12,000 feet in the Peruvian high plains when a young woman was brought to us with a scalp injury after her hair was caught in a fan at work. Without hesitation, Joe stepped forward, controlled her bleeding, and repaired her scalp. The doctors and nurses we were working with later revealed that when they first saw this poor woman, they were certain that she would bleed to death. We all knew that Joe had saved her life (and he had even preserved her long, beautiful hair). “The next morning when we all went to see her—and were still marveling at the phenomenal surgical triumph—Joe was there at her bedside. Through a translator, he was downplaying his accomplishment and praising the local doctors and other team members. Most of all, he wanted to make sure that she and her family were okay (they had been so worried about her). He brushed aside all the attention directed to him and told us all how brave the young woman was and what an honor it was just having the opportunity to do what he was trained to do and to help other people.” In 2002, Portoghese called on another Rollins graduate—his sister—to help him with an issue hitting closer to home. “Joe called me absolutely devastated because he wasn’t going to be able to afford his

own medical malpractice insurance,” said Ann Marie Portoghese Varga ’82, a 23-year public relations professional, who joined the Rollins staff in 2000 and currently serves the College as assistant vice president of public relations. “He was struggling with really big decisions like moving out of state, and even questioning whether he should have become a doctor. In the end, he was willing to stand up and be the ‘poster doctor’ for the issue…and I just had to help.” Together, the dynamic duo worked tirelessly in 2002 and 2003 on the controversial issue that continues to negatively impact Florida’s ability to provide outstanding healthcare. Varga founded and served as volunteer director of the Florida Hospital Public Relations Advisory Council, worked behind the scenes as a publicist, wrote op-ed columns, and traveled with physicians to Tallahassee to speak directly with legislators and participate in a physician’s rally. While his sister was working behind the scenes, Portoghese was busy serving as a spokesperson on the medical malpractice issue, debating tough attorneys on television, presenting at community forums, visiting with legislators, and more. And he continues that fight, leading the way to find solutions for the serious healthcare crisis that Florida, and many other communities around the nation, still face. The current president of the medical staff at Florida Hospital (through December 2005), he is also working to make Florida a model for quality control in medical care. Toward that end, he will serve on a statewide physician’s task force currently being assembled by former United States Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Mel Martinez. According to Portoghese, “The practice of medicine isn’t just about making a living, it’s about making a difference.”

WHAT DOES YOUR GRANDMOTHER DO?

MLS alumnae pursue doctorate degrees Love of the liberal arts persuaded them. Christine Dudding ’92MLS and Kathy Bailey ’96MLS, alumnae of the Master of Liberal Studies (MLS) program, had not considered a Ph.D. program. The women were fulfilled with work, teaching, children, and grandchildren. After completing the MLS program, an intense, interdisciplinary graduate program that explores significant ideas and themes of Western culture, Chris Dudding began teaching humanities at Valencia Community College while working full time in the international high-technology field. With no plans for further graduate study, but a strong interest in horticulture, she studied botany, ecology, biology, entomology, and horticulture at Valencia. She completed the Orange County master gardener program and the National Wildlife Habitat Stewardship program. As her interests developed, she anticipated a new goal: to do research and teach in the horticultural field. In August, Dudding entered a Ph.D. program in environmental horticulture at the University of Florida (UF). She will study the morphology and taxonomy of tropical/subtropical plants of the new world, particularly the orchid and bromeliad families. She received a tuition waiver and a $12,000 research fellowship for her first year at UF. “My end goal is to work as a teacher, researcher, and developer of programs for conservation and horticultural education in Florida and Latin America,” said Dudding, who is fluent in Spanish. She has three children, ages 33, 28, and 22, and two grandchildren. Daughter Maya Greven ’04HH received her bachelor’s degree in humanities from the Holt School in May. The Master of Liberal Studies program provided a significant contrast to her former “techno-focused” career, Dudding said. “It gave me a broad understanding of the world in the context of history, culture, and science, and gave me excellent experience articulating my ideas.”

Also seeking to reconnect with the liberal arts, Kathy Bailey taught humanities part time at Valencia Community College after completing the MLS program, eventually expanding her repertoire to Rollins students. This fall, for example, she is teaching Introduction to Art and Artists for the College of Arts & Sciences at Rollins. A program adviser at the Hamilton Holt School (and Rollins employee since 1985), Bailey will enter a Ph.D. program in humanities at Florida State University (FSU) in January. And she will receive a teaching assistantship stipend and 80 percent tuition waiver. Bailey has three daughters, ages 26, 22, and 21, and two granddaughters. “I can’t count the ways the MLS program enriched my life,” she said. “I came out of it so much more skilled and confident. It prepared me to teach, which is very enriching. It helped me secure my current position and a job in the corporate world. And it was excellent preparation for the FSU interdisciplinary humanities program.” Bailey believes the Ph.D. program will position her to devote the rest of her life to “learning and sharing the beauty of the humanities and promoting their essential role in our world.”—Linda Carpenter

Q&A A L U M N I P E R S P E C T I V E S

Mark Twain said, “Our opinions do not really blossom into fruition until we have expressed them to someone else.” The new Q&A Alumni Perspectives section has been created to provide an avenue for alumni to share their opinions on a variety of topics. This issue’s focus is on the freedom of speech. Three political science majors were asked:

{

“Do you believe the freedom of speech includes publicly speaking out against the government for any reason. Why or why not?”

}

William J. (Bill) Green ’95

Thomas J. Baird ’81

Publication Printing Consultant The Watkins Printing Company Columbus, Ohio wgreen@watkinsprinting.com

Bureau Chief Gannett News Service Silver City New Mexico gilamedia@msn.com

“One of our country’s greatest gifts and strengths is that our government was founded by and for the people. If a citizen chooses to speak out against the government, that person is actually performing his or her obligation and duty. The problem occurs when people of tremendous wealth or fame use these means to influence elections and voice their opinions on a platform far above the rest of the country. These individuals, such as George Soros and Michael Moore, have extreme agendas and political views that bypass our system of checks and balances and do not seem representative of our society at large. They should be able to express their views freely, but it is troublesome to me that one person can have his or her individual views heard so loudly and widely without ever being granted this power by the people, through a democratic election. Although our system is not perfect and those with wealth and power can abuse free speech, we still live in the best from of representative government in the world.”

“In the debates of the Continental Congress, the nation’s founders extended what would become First Amendment rights to all except the treasonous—those providing comfort or aid to an enemy of the state. During WWII, “loose lips sink ships” warned Americans to be careful—the enemy was listening. In our fear, we violated our own citizens’ Constitutional rights by interring those of Japanese descent. Our speech at home directed the course of the Vietnam War and ensured our defeat. As a journalist, soldiers returning from Iraq have told me how demonstrations at home demoralize them in the field. Yes, we may speak out against our government at any time for any reason. But we will reap, in deed, what we have sown in words—perhaps contrary to our intentions, perhaps not.”

Gillian Smith ’95 Director of Media and Interactive Burger King Corporation Miami, Florida gilliansmith@whopper.com

“Absolutely. The First Amendment to the Constitution includes not only the freedom of speech—but freedoms of expression, such as the freedom to assemble and freedom of the press. As a founding principle of our government, it is imperative that it remain protected. What is interesting to see now is the influence that large corporations have on these rights. The film Fahrenheit 9/11, which is a personal expression (albeit on a large scale) against the government, was met with numerous challenges regarding its initial distribution due to the economic influence of certain corporations. This is especially concerning since a small handful of conglomerates have great power and could potentially endanger these freedoms.”

CONNECTED FOR LIFE...HAPPILY EVER AFTER Darren Schuringa ’93MBA began looking at professional business schools soon after earning his bachelor’s degree from the University of Western Ontario. Born in Canada, Darren wanted a first-class education at a location that would allow him stay proficient as a competitive water-skier. After visiting Rollins’ Crummer Graduate School of Business, he decided there was no better place for him to get his MBA. “I was so impressed with the faculty. I realized right away that professors would take time to teach you as individuals, not just as a class.” Meanwhile, Allison Hug Schuringa ’92 was pursuing her undergraduate degree at Rollins—a huge change to a small-town environment for this New York City girl. “I didn’t know where I wanted to attend college until I saw some literature at my high school about Rollins. Once I saw the campus, I fell in love with Rollins and made my decision immediately to attend school here.” As Allison neared graduation, working hard on earning her political science degree and volunteering at the inaugural Florida Film Festival, she was introduced to Darren, who was in his first year at Crummer. “A Rollins friend of mine, Kim Shearer Pride ’91, met Darren while at Crummer and introduced us,” she explained. A friendship, interlaced with

dating, formed quickly between the two, but graduation was looming for Allison. Just four months after meeting Darren, Allison graduated from Rollins and entered a career in politics, which took her first back to NYC and then on to Madrid. Darren remained behind in Winter Park to finish his MBA studies, then returned to Canada to work for his family’s business. Following several years of keeping in touch via long-distance phone calls, Darren and Allison met for a vacation in the Greek Islands—and the rest is history: Allison moved to Canada shortly thereafter, the couple became engaged two years later, and they returned to the States and settled in NYC, where they married. Allison, now a stay-at-home mom to 2-yearold Sarah, and Darren, a portfolio manager for Estabrook Capital Management, are enjoying married life and love reminiscing about Rollins. “My experience at Crummer was outstanding,” Darren said. “Everyone supported one another. I’m still in touch with professors and classmates.” Added Allison, “We made so many friends at Rollins. More than half the people in our wedding party were friends from Rollins and Crummer. Whenever we talk about that experience, we both start smiling!”—Lynn Penyak

Corporation, she has run approximately 100 meeting/seminars, flown more than 200,000 miles, and met celebrities such as Dennis Rodman and Lynyrd Skynyrd.

RAMONA VONONDARZA ’96 ■ ROLLINS IS HER RACKET Ramona Vonondarza was introduced to the idea of attending Rollins College when her father visited the campus in 1985 as a technical official for an American Junior Hockey Tournament that was played on the College’s soccer field. “Ever since then, he had it on his mind,” said the native Venezuelan. “He never gave me a choice. It was Rollins all the way. “By the time I was old enough to go to college, he did give me a few choices,” she laughed. “But, Rollins was the first college I saw. I said to him, ‘You can cancel the rest of the college visits. This is where I’m going to be.’” Today, Vonondarza has followed in her father’s footsteps, making her own mark on professional sports. She is currently ranked 19th in the world—a career high—as a player with the Ladies Professional Racquetball Association, which requires that she train four hours a day and compete up to 20 weeks a year in cities across the nation. Regardless of this jet-setting agenda, the 30-year-old athlete’s favorite place to play her game remains close to home. “I will sometimes play Florida State University singles or doubles, and the tournaments are often played in Orlando,” Vonondarza said. “I love that. Often, the first ’96 Jennifer Crawford Mohead and husband John, son John Joseph “Jack,” 5/3/04; Erin Thomas Pavao and husband Matt, daughter Madison Elizabeth, 4/28/04; Shelley Boyer Luck and husband Matthew, daughter Pamela Kay, 7/16/03; Wendy Speake Brunner and husband Matthew, son Caleb Mathieson, 12/17/03. ’97 Jeffrey Henry and wife Kristine, daughter Ryann Olivia, 4/22/04; Brian ’99 and Kara Kidman Logue ’99MAT, daughter Meghan Elizabeth, 2/26/04; Matt Pistone and wife Jeana, daughter Mia, 2/16/04. ’98 Carlynna Bonfiglio Golas and husband Christopher, twin sons Presley Christopher and Zachary Peter, 5/19/03; Nikki White Lazzaretto and husband Nick, son Riley Nicholas, 3/27/03;

thing I do is eat something at Rollins or just walk around the campus. To this day, it’s like coming home.” What drew Vonondarza to Rollins was its coziness yet close proximity to a large metropolitan area. What kept her there was her piqued interest in learning. The first in her family to attend college in the U.S. and the only one to live there, she was awarded a bachelor’s degree in Latin American affairs in 1996 and went on to earn two master’s degrees from Lynn University in Boca Raton, Florida, where she currently resides. “I could not have done two master’s degrees in five years without going to Rollins,” she said. “Back in the day, I struggled a lot because English was not my first language. When I first got to Rollins, I literally studied with a dictionary next to me, and it took me a little more time. The whole Rollins experience both prepared me for graduate school and taught me to never give up.”—Vickie Pleus

Young Alumni Find Their Calling Seeking Justice for All Joyce “Joy” Ahlering ’98

Revisiting His Roots Cato Anderson ’98 canderson@delandgibsonins.com

frauahlering@hotmail.com

Joy Ahlering ’98 has accomplished an array of impressive feats in her short time away from Rollins. She has tested the waters from Charlotte (l-r) Jane and Joy Ahlering to Orlando, from Berlin to Washington, D.C., and has found a more permanent home in Seattle, Washington, where she is currently finishing her law degree studies. When Ahlering was searching for “the right” undergraduate college, Rollins won out over UNC-Chapel Hill, the College of Charleston. Ahlering decided that a small campus environment “with the peaceful absence of traffic roaring through it” was exactly what she was looking for. “Rollins was a cozier school where I knew I would get a lot more personal attention academically—and I most definitely did,” she said. Rollins also ended up being the top choice for her younger sister Jane Ahlering, a Crosby Scholar who graduated from the College in 2004. After graduating from Rollins with a double major in German and international relations, Ahlering was awarded a one-year Fulbright Scholarship, which took her to a small town on the German-Polish border. She gives much of the credit for her positive experience in Germany to her Rollins German professor, Nancy Decker. “The complete language and cultural immersion teaching methods that Dr. Decker used in the classroom were so important to my survival in East Germany,” Ahlering said. “Thanks to her, I arrived in an obscure German town where no American had ever lived before equipped with a great command of the German language and a thorough knowledge of all the post-reunification complexities of the country.” After her Fulbright year, Ahlering remained in Germany to intern at the German Parliament in Berlin. “Legislative work is like catching a bug—it’s very motivating because if you spend massive amounts of time on one single bill proposal and it ends up not getting a majority vote, you feel certain that if you work just a little harder the next time, you can get that next one passed,” she explained. After returning to the States in 2000, Aherling considered law school, but she wanted to make sure that her interest was well grounded. So she worked as a litigation paralegal at a private law firm in D.C., then moved back to her hometown of Charlotte, North Carolina for a year to commit herself to public interest law as a volunteer for Legal Services AmeriCorps. “The D.C. law firm ‘rat-race’ mentality didn’t appeal to me much, but the day-to-day contact with indigent clients convinced me I was ready to be a lawyer.” Ahlering plans to stay in Washington State and would like to work full-time with the Washington State Senate, where she recently completed a summer internship. “Public service and legislative law, especially at the state level, are ever-changing and involve a lot of writing and comparative research. Those are the parts of law school I’ve enjoyed the most.”—Lara Bueso ’07

Close ties to his hometown of Concord, Massachusetts, have shaped Cato Anderson’s life. Anderson headed south to Rollins with four fellow classmates from the schools he’d attended since he was young. Most of the group pledged Chi Psi together, and the Concord ties remained strong throughout their college days. An economics major, Anderson also developed close ties with Rollins and has particularly fond memories of serving on the Greek Council and playing softball and football with his fraternity brothers. Today, he continues to spend time with his fraternity brothers in the Boston area. After leaving Rollins, it didn’t take Anderson long to return to his roots in Massachusetts, where he reconnected with childhood friend Alexa. After numerous letters from college and long-awaited visits, the couple’s 10-year friendship culminated in their marriage in August 2003. From his experience as co-founder of a dining publication magazine, Boston Flavor, to insurance broker with Deland, Gibson Insurance Associates, Inc., Anderson has witnessed the value of his education throughout his career endeavors. He attributes his success to the personalized education and mentoring from his advisor, Associate Professor of Economics Harry Kypraios, he received at Rollins. “The small size of the school gives you the valuable lesson of how to deal with people on a day-to-day basis,” he said. Now a property casualty broker, Anderson says he can see himself settling into the insurance business. He enjoys the freedom to make his own schedule and the ability to work with diverse types of industries. No matter where the future may lead him—which will more than likely be close to Massachusetts—he knows he is assured of one thing: “My experience at Rollins instilled me with the confidence I need to face any challenge and accomplish any goal, personal or professional.” —Elaine Worth

Mastering the Art of Medicine Zofia Nowicki ’99 Zofia Nowicki, M.D. says that being a good doctor is mostly about being a good person—being caring, honest, hard working, self-directed, and well rounded. And by all accounts, this 1999 Rollins honors graduate is well on her way to achieving that goal. After graduating Zofia Nowicki: Self-portrait from the University of Florida (UF) Medical School in 2003, Nowicki spent a year at the Erlanger Medical Center in Chatanooga, Tennessee gaining clinical experience in many different areas of medicine—from internal medicine to surgery, emergency treatment, family medicine, radiology, and pathology.

Enjoying Sweet Success Peter Behringer ’96

Caroline Hamilton Bone to Scott Allan Templeton, 5/8/04 at Quivey’s Grove in Fitchburg, WI.

peterbehringer@hotmail.com

For now, at least, Peter Behringer ’96 is not pursuing his dream to write opinion articles for the Wall Street Journal. Instead, he is satisfying Floridians’ sweet tooth with lots of chocolate. Peterbrooke Chocolatier, Inc. was founded in 1983 in Behringer’s hometown of Jacksonville, Florida, where the company’s visionary, Behringer’s mother, Phyllis Geiger, named the business after Behringer and his sister, Brooke. Behringer came to Rollins to prepare for a career in politics, but an internship for a lobbying group in Washington, D.C. convinced him that the political arena was not for him. So, in 1995, while still a student, the political science major became involved in the family business. This responsibility, however, did not hinder his involvement in campus life. A campus leader, he was a member of the Student Government Association, wrote for The Sandspur, volunteered for Habitat for Humanity, and was a member of Rollins Cigar Aficionados. He is especially proud of his involvement in student policy-making regarding student parking, the residence halls, and J-Term. Behringer assumed the position of vice president at Peterbrooke Chocolatier, Inc. after graduating and he advanced to president upon his mother’s retirement in August 2003. “I like the candy industry because there’s a certain magic about it, there’s nothing controversial, and it’s an upbeat place to be,” Behringer said. “There’s also an element of creativity that I enjoy.” Despite the demands of running a business that has grown to nine locations in Florida, including one on Winter Park’s Park Avenue, the busy young entrepreneur still finds time for his family (wife Allison and son Daniell) and to manage and play for a city-league softball team called the “Swingers.” —Ilyse Gerber

In her current role as radiology resident at UF’s Shands Hospital, Nowicki uses digital images to reconstruct the body in three dimensions and diagnose disease. She cites many elements of her Rollins education as preparation for her career in medicine. As art editor for Brushing, she was introduced to the digital-imaging technology that would help her in future radiology projects, like the Web site she designed and created to test the radiology skills of residents and medical students. Her study of nuclear magnetic resonance as a chemistry major at Rollins also laid an excellent foundation for her chosen field of specialization in radiology, particularly magnetic resonance imagery (MRI). Nowicki continues to paint and has various works on permanent display at Shands Hospital, UF College of Medicine, UF Brain Institute, and Erlanger Medical Center. One of her recent shows featured portraits that explored the patient-doctor relationship. —Teresa Greenlees Gelston ’97

PLANNED GIVING PROFILE SANDRA “SANDEE” HILL SMITH ’73 ’74MBA “If I can give something back to the college that has given me so much through a planned gift of a retirement asset, and still meet my financial goals, then I have accomplished a wonderful result.” Sandee Hill Smith ’73 ’74MBA knows how to make things happen. As an undergraduate at Rollins College, she was an Algernon Sydney Sullivan Scholar, recognized in Who’s Who in American Colleges and Universities, a member of Kappa Kappa Gamma Sorority, and graduated with honors. And this was just the beginning. Smith went on to receive her MBA in international finance from the Crummer Graduate School of Business, again distinguishing herself with honors and being awarded the John C. Myers Award. She also added Certified Financial Planner, Consulting Group associate, senior investment management consultant, and Certified Investment Management Analyst to her impressive list of credentials. Most recently, she was acknowledged in Research magazine’s “Winner’s Circle” as one of America’s finest female financial advisors. Smith began her professional career as a market analyst and economist, moved into the securities industry as an analyst, and was recruited in 1979 to join the Consulting Group of E. F. Hutton in 1979, now called the Consulting Group, Smith Barney, a subsidiary of Citigroup Inc. She currently works with the company’s institutional clients, endowments, foundations, and individuals, managing more than $600 million in assets. Smith’s great affection for her alma mater is revealed through her service on Rollins’ Alumni Association Board of Directors. For the

University of Virginia School of Medicine and was actively involved in research. He is survived by his wife, Beverly “Bev” Burkhart Ogilvie ’49, two sons, and a daughter. ’55 John W. Thibodeau died June 13, 2004. He is survived by his wife, Mary.

past three years, her enthusiasm and innovative ideas have benefited the Association and the College. A consistent Rollins Fund supporter, Smith recently made a planned gift to the College by designating Rollins as a beneficiary of her Individual Retirement Account. This gift of a retirement asset allows her to reduce the negative impact of both estate and income taxes. Her estate will be entitled to a charitable tax deduction, and Rollins College does not incur the income tax for which her heirs would have been liable. “I can provide for my children’s financial security through estate gifts like this that do not carry such a heavy tax burden,” she said. Through her gift, which she would like ultimately to be used to assist with upgrading campus technology, Smith will make a far greater impact on the College than she ever thought possible. She can rest assured that she is not only helping Rollins students for years to come, but that she is making her gift in the most cost-effective manner possible. “Investing in Rollins’ future in this way is about more than tax benefits,” she said. “It is about helping the College I love create generations of excellent students and citizens.” —Robert R. Cummins ’03MBA For information on making a planned gift to Rollins, contact the Office of Planned Giving at 407-646-2606.

Paul Henry Harris ’45 ’74MAT Lt. Col. (Ret.) Paul H. Harris, assistant professor emeritus of physical education, died August 12, 2004 at age 82. Loved by his students, Harris taught at Rollins for 17 years and served as the College’s waterfront director, coaching two water-ski teams to the NCAA Championships and bringing Rollins’ water-ski program to national prominence without the benefit of athletic scholarships. Harris attended Rollins from 1940-43 and served in the U.S. Air Force from 1943-70.

Amy Louise Lathrop ’00 Chi Omega President 1998-99 Amy Louise Lathrop (ALL). Really her name is so perfect for such a beautiful and wonderful person. She had it all. Every person who met Amy was touched by her personality, her smile, and her infectious enthusiasm. Amy brought something to this world that you rarely find—honesty and truth in all situations. She was truly someone you could admire both inside and out. Amy’s love for all things in nature was contagious. You couldn’t help but be enthralled with her pet-sitting business or her latest trip to Mexico to help veterinarians. After a battle with cancer, she moves on to a more peaceful spot. She will become part of nature as she has her remains included into a reef ball and lowered into the ocean. Amy’s life has influenced so many people. And we can all only hope to carry that spark of life in our hearts. Amy has left us now, but her influence and love will never leave us. We are all better people for having known Amy. Amy had it ALL. We miss you so much… —Andrea Henderson ’99 ’02MBA
