Symposium Explores School Integration II

I 11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111

Seeking information on public school integration, more than 300 Connecticut residents gathered at Trinity on N ov. 15 to discuss the subject with experts from across the nation. School superintendents, teachers, legislators, members of boards of education, and parents were among those who attended the day-long

program titled "Quality Integration: Options for Connecticut Schools." This first Presidents' Policy Forum was sponsored by Trin ity in conjunction wi th the member ins titutions of the H artford Consortium fo r Higher Education. The program was designed to give Connecticut residents a chance to discuss ideas with school in tegration experts and those involved in desegregation plans in other parts of the country . The subject is of particular interest to Connecticut citizens,

who expect to see a court test of public school integration in their own state next spring. The Scheff vs . O'Neill suit was brought against the Connecticut Board of Education by the parents of 17 black, Hispanic, and white chi ldren from Hartford and West Hartford (including Eugene E. Leach, associate professor of history and American studies; Leach's wife, Kath y Frederick '71; and Denise T. Best, assistant director of special academic programs) who allege that the Hartford school

was keynote speaker at the forum . Citing Boston as an example, he warned the audience not to desegregate schools on the basis of race alone. When this was done in Boston 15 years ago, Lukas said, white families who could afford to leave the city or send their children to private schools did. As a result, 78 percent of Boston's public school population are students of color. Lukas said Boston's desegregation policy also caused middle-class families of all colors to take their children out of city schools, so most of the remaining students are living in low-income families. "The net result, I'm afraid, is that Boston's schools, at first desegregated by race, have now been resegregated by both race and- perhaps more important - by class," Lukas said. "Social science research has demonstrated that it is not enough to put an economically deprived, illprepared, ill- motivated black child next to an economically deprived, ill-prepared, ill-motivated white child. To improve classroom performance, this research shows, one must integrate by social class as well as by race. "Class is America's dirty little secret," Lukas said later in his remarks. "The unwillingness to grapple with class realities is one of the fatal weaknesses of American public policy." He concluded by saying that he believes racial integration is possible in schools if questions of race and class are considered jointly. As promised, the forum presented a variety of options and opinions. For example, the audience heard Christine H . Rossell, author of The Carrot or The Stick for School Desegragation Policy, discuss her view that

ride" are more effective in integrating schools than forced busing programs in which the only people who really have no choice are those "who have their backs against the wall, the poorest people in the school system." She was challenged by Charles Vert Willie, author of The Caste and Class Controversy on Race and Poverty, who believes that a

variety of simultaneous approaches works best to desegregate schools. "One of the problems we created years ago is we desegregated schools, b~t we forgot about upgrading education," Willie said . "Then we came by with magnet schools: We upgraded education but we forgot about desegregation. Then we came along with choice and we forgot about both." The forum also featured a lunchtime address by Connecticut Commissioner of Education Gerald N. Tirozzi. Don Noel, political columnist for The Hartford Courant , moderated a case study of school integration in Charlotte-Mecklenburg, which included the comments of the former superintendent of schools, the chairman of the Board of Education, an editor of Th e Char-

lotte Observer, a teacher, and a parent from Charlotte-Mecklenburg. In addition, there was a discussion titled "The Integrated Classroom: Curriculum Issues and Psychological Dynamics" with experts from the Milwaukee (Wis.)

Major Photographic Show Features Alumni Collections

"You have to see my favorite ," said a visitor to Widener Gallery, leading her friend to a black and white image of a couple kissing in a busy street. Her favorite was an original print of "Le Baisser de !'Hotel de Ville, Paris" a 40-year-old photograph by Robert Doisneau that was readily recogniz.able from its widespread reproduction on posters and post-

cards. Many other photography lovers no doubt found their old favorites or discovered new ones at "Shooting Life: Twentieth Century Photographs," an exhibition displayed at Austin Arts Center in November. Sixty-two works by major photographers , ranging from Edward Steichen's 1920 image of a dancing Therese Duncan to Robert Mapplethorpe's 1987 picture of "Charles" posing in a studio, were seen by numerous visitors to the show sponsored by Friends of Art. The photographs were drawn from the personal collections ofJoel M . Goldfrank '69 and his wife, Kathryn Weill Goldfrank; Peter Hay Halpert '80; and Mary Salter '73 and artist Mel Kendrick '71. A N ew York Times critic wrote that the exhibition contained "a lot of good prints chosen by a sharp eye and assembled with a light touch." Michael C. FitzGerald, curator of the show and assistant professor of fine arts, said that the photographs

he selected "record and interpret both major historical events and the less-obvious transformations of society that have characterized the century. "For example, photographs by Dorothea Lange and Walker Evans record the experience of the American Depression. The Second World War is reflected in the photographs ofW. Eugene Smith and Horace Bristol. The social upheaval of the 1960s and 1970s fueled the work of Larry Clarke and Mapplethorpe. The urban architectural transformation of our cities is investigated in photographs by Berenice Abbott and Barbara Morgan. "The prominence of women in the history of20th-century photography is reflected in the selection of works by women in this exhibition," FitzGerald added . "It's a show that presents women as major contributors - as photographers rather than subjects." Other photographers represented in the exhibition were Manuel

Bravo, Henri Cartier-B resson, Imogen Cunningham, Judy Dater, Jan Groover, George HoyningenHeune, Marcus Leatherdale, Rene Magritte, Irving Penn, August Sander, Cindy Sherman and Edward Weston. The Trinity exhibition marked the first time that the Goldfranks, who started collecting photographs 14 years ago, had displayed their collection publicly. At the opening, the couple remarked that it was a strange experience to have empty spaces on their walls at home but it was exciting to see their photographs hanging in the Trinity gallery. "I was particularly happy that the students seemed to get a lot of enjoyment out of the show," commented Halpert, a collector who also works with contemporary photographers on shows . Recently, he put together a one-person exhibition of Marcus Leatherdale's work for display in major American cities as well as overseas in London and Tokyo. Halpert credits Michael Mahoney, the Genevieve Harlow Goodwin Professor of the Arts, and his 17th-century art courses with teaching him "to appreciate the intellectual content, the use of colors, the construction of the composition, to really examine a picture."

Trustees Investigate Religion, Coeducation Issues on Campus

........................................................

A 1950 PHOTOGRAPH by Robert Doisneau, "Le Baisser de l'Hotel de Ville, Paris," from the collection of Peter Hay Halpert '80, was part of "Shooting Life: 20th Century Photographs."

Two important aspects of life at Trinity - the coeducational experience and religion on campus - are currently being investigated by ad hoc committees of the board of trustees. According to Alfred J. Koeppel '54, the issue of religion on campus arose at last May's board meeting , when the trustees were made aware of the position of some faculty members advocating the barring of

President Gerety urged faculty committees and campus groups of administrators and students to think about the issue and to share their thoughts with the coordinating committee and the trustees studying equality in coeducation.

Fall Phonathons Are Spectacular Phonathon records fell early this year as the fall volunteer telephone effort produced $83,544 in five sessions. The total is more than was raised in all17 phonathons last year, according to C. Jeffery Wahlstrom, director of annual and special gifts. A comparison with last year shows the calling program ahead in every category (1989 results are in parentheses): 5 phonathons (7); 91 callers (73); 866 pledges (563); $94.47 average pledge, ($56.41); $83,544 total; ($31, 760). The successful effort is attributed to better recruiting and some innovative techniques for building competition among callers, according to Constance French, assistant director of annual giving and phonathon coordinator. Phonathon chairs in each city were particularly successful in rounding up a persuasive group of volunteers. The chairs included: Rebecca Ward '88, Hartford; Chrissy Cervo '89, New York City; Amy Bennett '83, Philadelphia; and Wendy Goldstein '88, Boston. Three of the sessions were challenge phonathons . In New York, Trinity young alumni competed against callers from Bowdoin and Union Colleges. In intramural competition, Trinity Boston and Philadelphia alumni challenged each other in a caller-for-caller and dollar-for-dollar battle. Boston came out on top in both contests with 20 callers and $11,705 to Philadelphia's 13 callers and $11,205 raised . "In our eyes," French said, "both cities are winners because each group increased caller participation and dollars raised over last year."

ALONG THE WALK

Wahlstrom also paid tribute to Assistant Director of Annual Giving Llyn Kaimowitz and her 22 parent volunteer callers. Last year only five parents took part in the fall calling program. Seven more phonathons are slated in the next two months and volunteers are still needed to take part. The locations and dates are: Washington, D .C., Feb. 25; Baltimore, Feb. 26, Wellesley, Mass ., Mar. 4; Hartford, Mar. 5; Chicago, Mar. 6; New York City, Mar. 11; San Francisco, Mar. 18; and Los Angeles, Mar. 19. "We are thrilled with the success of this fall's phonathons," French said. "The volunteers had so much fun, it felt more like a party than a night of work."

Peer Education Raises Awareness of Sexual Assault

........................................................

In the face of alarming statistics, a number of students, faculty, and administrators are making it their business to heighten awareness of the problems of sexual assault and harassment. National statistics indicate that one in four female college students is raped sometime during her undergraduate career, and that 80 percent of these victims know their assailant, say Diane R. Martell, coordinator of the Trinity Women's Center, and Patricia M. Dowling, a graduate intern from the University of Connecticut School of Social Work. Campus awareness of the problem, they say, is the first step toward a solution. One of the efforts now underway at Trinity is a Peer Education Program, coordinated by Abigail K. Bordner '93. Last year, Bordner and other concerned students enrolled in a 12-hour training program run by the Hartford Sexual Assault Crisis Service. Upon completion of their training, the students began offering education sessions, as well as longer

workshops, to classes and student groups. "When I came to Trinity, I found the social scene pretty abominable," says Heather L. Walsh '93, a peer educator. "At parties, women were treated like objects. When I heard about peer education, I felt like this campus really needed to get some serious training out there." In 1989-90, peer educators were invited to conduct about five information sessions; this semester, they already have run 10. Three of the sessions were offered at fraternity houses , says peer educator Jessica J. Gilbert '92, and two went extremely well. In one fraternity, however, the brothers were interested in the program only when it focused on what women are doing to help themselves and not on male attitudes. Despite this, Gilbert is encouraged by the reception the peer educators have received. "Since my freshman year, the change in attitude that I've seen on this campus has been drastic and positive," says Gilbert, a residential life peer mentor in the area of sexual assault who, with Walsh , leads a

support group for victims of sexual assault. A great deal of credit belongs to the Sexual Assault Task Force, a committee of students, faculty , and administrators, she says. According to Gilbert, the task force's "Take Back the Night" rally and march condemning violence against women last spring did a lot to attract attention to the problems of sexual assault and harassment. "Awareness has just shot up ," says Walsh. Gilbert also represents Trinity in the Connecticut Consortium for the Prevention of Sexual Assault on University Campuses. She says Trinity is ahead of many consortium members not only in such safety measures as campus call boxes and an escort service, but also in the existence of such organizations as Men Against Violence Against Women and in the dedication of student volunteers. At most colleges, the responsibility for sexual assault awareness is placed solely upon the director of the women's center. Another area .in which Trinity is a leader is that of peer counseling. Trinity now has seven peer counsel-

ors who have completed 30 hours of training and six months of telephone bot-line counseling with the Hartford Sexual Assault Crisis Service. In February, Trinity will have its own bot-line staffed by student counselors. "This College has a great group of students," Martell says. " We can be very proud of that."

Program Combats Asian Stereotyping

........................................................

As a youth watching a television crime drama, Fred Ho wondered why the Green Hornet got all the glory when his Asian manservant Kato - who was a better fighter - only was allowed to drive the car and say "Yes, boss. " On the TV show that aired in the 1960s, Kato was portrayed by Bruce Lee - a famous martial artist. The stereotyping of Asians in popular culture and the media continues today and still concerns Ho, a Chinese-American saxophonist, composer and political activist. Ho gave a campus talk in November as part of Asian Awareness Month. Other events included a lecture by Associate Professor of American Studies Jerry G. Watts on the "Recurrence of an American Phobia: Anti-Asian-American Sentiment," a food festival and an exhibition on Asian culture. The Asian Students International Alliance (ASIA), whose president is Minako Koike '92 ofJapan, sponsored the month's activities. Support also came from the Area Studies department, Students Organized Against Racism and Students for Equality. Koike explained that Asian Awareness Month was held a~ a way of making ASIA more active on campus as well as heightening people's sensitivity and knowledge about Asian-American issues. "I hope to see a continuation of activities," she said.

"The quality of roles and depictions of Asian-Americans hasn't improved," Ho said during his talk. "Asians and Latinos have become the new wave of pop villains." He said that Asian men are portrayed as "ruthless, evil and talking in Oriental fortune cookie sayings," while female Asian actors and models still appear as subservient sex objects. "Asian-American women are 'exotic/ erotics,' so you see them as co-anchors on TV - but you never see Asian-American men as TV anchors." According to Ho, this condition remains prevalent in the mainstream entertainment industry because consumers don't demand changes and because Asian-Americans aren't forceful enough in advoca~ing change. "Asian-Americans should demand full affirmative action in the media, arts and entertainment industry," he said. "Actors should turn down jobs of racial stereotypes and should seek work in small but developing theater companies ... Asian-Americans should support a true and powerful Asian-American art."

Growing up in Amherst, Mass. , Ho was inspired by the work of radical black artists and musicians. In the 1970s, he founded the HarvardRadcliffe Asian American Association and the Asian-American Resource Workshop in Boston. In the early 1980s, without a job, apartment or contacts in the music business, he headed to New York to give it a go as a professional musician. "I struggled for many years and paid some dues and started the Afro-Asian Music Ensemble. It was music that struggled to unite people of color," Ho said . Ho strives to achieve his goal of racial harmony through his multicultural music; he performs around the country and gave a concert at Trinity last September. He also speaks out about the need for education and dialogue about the political, social and economic issues which he says will become increasingly volatile in the 21st century. "It's projected that by 2020, the so-called minorities will be the majority," he said. "This has raised issues about our changing culture and how we foster racial harmony."

addition of videos to the library's slide and record collection. Current holdings include over 800,000 books and periodicals, 200,000 microtexts, 150,000 slides, 15,000 sound recordings and several thousand videotapes and films. After retirement, Emerick will pursue his hobbies of gardening, travel, opera, and volunteering time to care for babies with AIDS.

Librarian Named To Succeed Emerick

........................................................

Dr. Stephen L. Peterson, librarian at the Divinity School ofYale University, is Trinity's new college librarian, chosen following a nationwide search. He assumes the post Feb. 1, succeeding the retiring Ralph Emerick, who has been college librarian since 1972. Reporting to the dean of the faculty, the librarian is responsible for planning, supervision and administration of the main library, the Watkinson Library (a separate research and rare book facility), the College archives, and such special collections as the slide and music library. The librarian also holds an appointment as a member of the faculty. Divinity librarian at Yale since 1972, Peterson received his B .A . from Bethel College, B.D. from Colgate Rochester Divinity School and master's degrees in Near Eastern languages and literature and in library science from the University of Michigan. He was awarded the Ph.D . in religion from Vanderbilt University. In 1984, he attended the Institute for Educational Management at Harvard University. Before going to Yale, Peterson held several positions at the Joint University Libraries (now Vanderbilt University Library). From 1978 to 1980 he served successively as acting librarian and librarian of the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library. Concurrent with his duties as divinity librarian he was assistant to the dean of the Divinity School for long range planning from 1984 to 1987 and associate dean for administration in 1987-88. The author of numerous articles and reviews in professional and academic journals, Peterson is currently at work on a book, tentatively titled "The American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions and The Development of Missiology in the United States." He has served as a consultant and participated in ac-

creditation reviews for numerous institutions. From 1981-84 he was director of Project 2000, a research project funded by the Lilly Endowment to develop planning strategies for theological libraries to the end of this century. Dr. Peterson and his wife, Mabel, have two children: Anne, a student at Bates College, and Matthew, a sophomore at Trinity. In announcing Peterson's appointment, Dean of the Faculty Jan Cohn expressed her own and the search committee's pleasure at Peterson's selection as well as the College's admiration and gratitude for Ralph Emerick's distinguished career as college librarian. "He has been a valued colleague throughout his nearly two decades of devoted service to Trinity." In his 18 years at the College, Emerick guided the library through tremendous technological change, including its conversion to automation and its linkage with Wesleyan and Connecticut College in the CTW Consortium. In 1979 he oversaw construction of a major addition to the library, a 43,000-square-foot expansionwhich increased library space by almost 50 percent. The library budget grew fivefold in 18 years to its current $2 million annually; the size of the staff increased; and the areas in which the staff operates expanded greatly, such as in the

Trinity students joined a statewide effort to combat substance abuse with an Alcohol Awareness Week in October. Signalling the week's kickoff was the arrival in each student's mailbox of a red ribbon and flyer stating, "The choice for me is drug free." According to Mary Rosenstock , associate dean of students, the College sponsors programming on substance abuse issues throughout the academic year, but was encouraged, along with other colleges and businesses to plan special programs around the issue, in line with Governor William O'Neill's designation of October 22-26 as Substance Abuse Week. "The most relevant issue for Trinity was alcohol abuse, although we tried to infuse the larger issue of substance abuse into the program," sh,e said. " The timing was fortuitous because drinking on campus had been a big issue earlier in the semester, when new regulations about midweek parties were put into effect," she said. The ruling, announced in August, prohibits the serving of alcohol at campus social events on Sunday through Thursday nights. "It has become much less of an issue as the semester goes on. Students were already in the habit of not drinking on school nights, so it was reinforcing to have the Alcohol Awareness Week at this time." The week's e.vents were planned by students from the Student Gov-

ALONG THE WALK

ernment Association, the Office of Residential Life, the Interfraternity Council and the Trinity Activities Council. Each group sponsored at least one non-alcoholic event on the problems associated with alcohol abuse. A demonstration of the physiological effects of alcohol consumption, "Get Drunk with the SGA," attracted a packed crowd to the Cave in Mather Hall. In a controlled experiment, student volunteers were given a series of shots of vodka, while police officers tested their motor function skills and discussed the effects of the alcohol consumption on response times. The leadoff event of the week was a workshop on alcohol abuse for freshmen in Jarvis and Jones dormitories by Mark Tenerowicz '91. As one of four peer mentors appointed by the Office of Residential Life in a new program this year, Tenerowicz has served as a resource for resident assistants in the area of substance abuse . The IFC's Wednesday night panel discussion on the effects of alcohol on interpersonal relationships attracted a large audience of some 70 students in the Cave; participant Heather Walsh '93 of the Women's Center discussed the effects of alcohol and rape. TCAC's Cave Dance on Friday featured a DJ and "mocktails." Other campus organizations, encouraged by the committee's programming, held their own events during the week. Residential Life's peer mentors sponsored a challenge for the most creative and best attended events by groups holding alcohol-free events on Saturday night. The top prizes of $500 for catering by Marriott Food Service of another non-alcoholic event during the academic year went to B-Psi for a dance party at the Umoja House, and to Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority and Alpha Chi Rho fraternity for a pie-throwing contest. According to Tenerowicz, both of these events were very well attended, and proceeds from them went to charity. A magic show in the Cave by Pi

Gerety and Hansen rapidly raised "bail" and made speedy getaways.

Kappa Alpha fraternity was awarded second prize of$100 for catering by Marriott. "The student groups on campus are very much involved in planning alcohol-free events year-round," said Rosenst<;>ck. "The prime movers in this effort are the RAs every event they sponsor is nonalcoholic. But, while Residential Life and the RAs are spearheading this effort, there is a real commitment also on the part of SGA. The IFC has been doing a lot more to be socially aware and sponsor more community events."

SILP Allows Students To Speak In Many Tongues

........................................................

Students with a yen to study Thai, Norwegian, or Hindi have found a niche in Trinity's Self-

Instructional Language Programs (SILP). Trinity ventured into SILP when it joined the National Association of Self-Instruction Language Programs in spring 1989 and enrolled its first students the following fall. According to Associate Academic Dean J. Ronald Spencer, the main reason for offering SILP was the College's desire to provide students in Area Studies- an interdisciplinary program that focuses on Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe, Latin America, and the Caribbean- a chance to learn languages relevant to their major but not generally available. For instance, area studies majors in the Asian studies concentration are required to take three credits of an Asian language, explains Ellison B . Findly, associate professor of religion and coordinator of Asian studies. The SILP, she says, expands their choices from the regularly offered East Asian languages of Chinese and Japanese to such South Asian languages as Hindi and Thai. (In addition to Chinese and japanese, Trinity regularly offers Arabic, French, German, Hebrew, Italian, Russian, and Spanish.) Louise Q. van der Does '91 is an Asian studies major who selected two semesters of the self-instructional program in Thai to fulfill her language requirement. "I went on a family trip two summers ago, and Thailand was one of my favorite stops," van der Does says. Her interest in returning to Thailand (she is considering teaching English there after she graduates) and the flexibility of self-study led her to choose Thai. As much as the SILP benefit Area Studies majors, they serve other students as well. Findly says the SILP have "opened up" the curriculum so that undergraduates can study languages simply because they are interested in them. The SILP also give students planning to study abroad a chance to learn the language they will be using while away. "In practice, we're also finding that there are many students who

want to learn their ancestral language," says Spencer. Such is the case with Rita M. Zandbergs '91, an economics major from Franklin, Mass. Zandbergs' parents came to the United States from Latvia about 40 years ago, and Zandbergs grew up speaking Latvian at home. She attended a Latvian school on Saturdays and a Latvian camp in the summer, and she was a member of a Latvian Girl Scout troop and of a Latvian folk dance group. "My entire life up until I went to high school was Latvian," Zandbergs says. Once in high school, however, Zandbergs drifted away from her Latvian activities, and her family stopped speaking Latvian at home. Her interest in Latvian was rekindled when the Berlin Wall came down and the Baltic states began their struggle for independence. She realized then that changes in the Soviet Union would make it easier to visit relatives in Latvia someday. She saw an announcement about the SILP and enrolled as a student of Latvian for the fall 1990 semester. "It had been eight years since I was really speaking Latvian, and it had deteriorated a lot," says Zandbergs, who will continue in the SILP during the spring semester. In addition to Thai and Latvian, Hindi Vietnamese, Demotic Greek, and Norwegian were offered through the SILP last semester. Korean, Swahili, and Telugu are among those languages in which students have expressed interest for the spring semester. For its part, the national association recommends books and audio and video tapes and supplies Trinity with the names of professionals qualified to evaluate student progress . Students in SILP purchase their own books; Trinity provides audio and video tapes. The College also hires tutors to meet with students for 75 to 90 minutes a week and pays the expenses of the end-ofsemester examiners. "In most cases, the tutors are not professional tutors," Spencer says .

"Typically, they are native speakers. One of the advantages of being in Hartford is that we have lots of native speakers." At the end of each semester, recognized professionals give exams to the students and recommend grades and credits to the chairman of the modern languages department. Students receive . 5 to 1. 5 credits a semester, depending on their performance . findly; Spencer; and Kenneth Lloyd Jones, chairman and professor of modern languages, oversee the SILP, which are jointly run by Area Studies and modern languages . The first year of the SILP was underwritten by a gift from the Braitmayer Foundation.

Poet Shares Verse, Environmental Theme

........................................................

Gary Snyder, a poet and environmentalist, charmed the standingroom-only crowds who attended his two readings at Austin Arts Center's Goodwin Theater during his stay as poet-in-residence in November. Snyder wound up his second public appearance by reading poems accompanied by a surprise guest, renowned contemporary musician Paul Winter, playing soprano saxophone. The California writer was a member of the Beat Generation poets of the 1950s, who were considered the forerunners of a counter-culture revolution in literature. He was the model for the character ofJaphy Ryder in Jack Kerouac's novel, Th e Dharma Bums, and he won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1975 for Turtle Island. Snyder's latest.book, a collection of essays titled The Practice of the Wild, was published in 1990. A "Noted With Pleasure" column in The New York Times Book Review stated that "Gary Snyder reminds us that the best way to learn about nature is to learn from nature, close up."

Sponsored by Trinity's Poetry Center, Snyder's residency also included discussions with undergraduates and workshops for Hartford high school students and their teachers.

Psi Upsilon Fraternity Placed On Probation

........................................................

As the result of a bottle-tossing incident following the TrinityCoast Guard football game, Psi Upsilon was placed on probation. The penalty, according to Dean of Students David Winer, prohibits the fraternity from holding any social events for the semester. According to the Dean's office the incident involved an exchange of words between some fraternity members on the roofofthe Psi Upsilon house and a passing group of Coast Guard cadets. Someone on the roof threw a bottle toward the cadets, followed by a second bottle that landed near a campus safety officer. There were no injuries in the incident. The fraternity has accepted the semester-long suspension and sent letters of apology to the Coast Guard Academy .and the Campus Safety Office.

graduation through the Scholar connection. Dawn Williams '90, now a consultant in university relations at CIGNA, met frequently with representatives of the Bloomfield insurer as one ofCIGNA's Scholars. When she thought about doing an internship in her senior year, CIGNA was a logical choice. With the help of Shirley DeLong, director of corporation and foundation giving at Trinity and coordinator of the Corporate Scholars Program, Dawn arranged a year-long internship in the Corporation's human resources area. The internship evolved into the job she now holds. "Being a Capital Area Scholar started the whole process," Dawn says. "It's how I got to meet the people in the Company and get started. " In the work that we do here in university relations we're trying to establish more strongly that relationship between the Company and the Scholars. I've been in contact with one of our four Scholars about working during Christmas break and possibly during the summer. I explain to the Scholars what work opportunities and internship possibilities exist, both during the school year and in the summer. "The experience with the Company helps students come to know their own preferences and skills. It was a natural progression for me to go from my internship to this job. I was able to visualize myself in a career track here. "The Corporate Scholars Program is great in that it links the educational community with the business community. The corporation benefits by having access to bright, local talent who are contributing to the company, and the Scholars benefit from us, through work experience and sponsorship."

by Trinity Authors STUDENTS, PROFESSORS , AND THE STATE IN TSARIST RUSSIA Samuel D. Kassow '66, professor of history at Trinity The University of California Press (Berkeley), 1989, 480 pages, $48.50 "Here is a really splendid study of the intellectual in politics in late Imperial Russia . No country had better universities or more intelligent students, and few had a more miserable citizenry. The intricate dance ofloyalists, revolutionaries, and the apathetic masses has never been better described." (The Virginia Quarterly Review, Winter 1990) "The first systematic and exhaustive study of one of the most important social and political developments in pre-October Russia . . . It ranks among the best studies in modern Russian history." Alexander Vucinich, University of Pennsylvania. Volume 5 in the University of California series, Studies on the History of Society and Culture, Professor Kassow's book originated in his doctoral thesis from the rnid-1970s. Examining the student strikes and demonstrations which pervaded Russia's higher educational institutions between 1899 and 1911, this original and incisive work appeals to Russian specialists, but also to those interested in the dynamics of student protest and the role of the intellectual in popular movements. This first comprehensive study of the student movement during the closing decades of tsarist rule centers on the interweaving of student protest, faculty politics and government policy toward the universities. In the changing responses of students, professors and bureaucrats to the crisis in the universities , the author uncovers some of the persistent political and social failings of the tsarist system. Kassow's source material for the book included archives recently opened to him in this country and

the U .S.S.R. , Soviet doctoral dissertations, unpublished manuscripts, newspapers of the period, and other printed material. The result is both incisive analysis and lively depiction of the period .

AFTER THE GU NS FELL SILENT: A POSTAPPOMATOX NARRATIVE, April 1865-March 1866 A. A. Hoehling '36 Madison Books (Lanham, Md.) , 1990, 336 pages, $24.95

thor has uncovered new primary source material - diaries, letters and eyewitness accounts - that offer new light on how ordinary people were affected by the war and its aftermath. The book's narrative covers Lincoln's assassination, the search for John Wilkes Booth, the capture of Jefferson Davis, Mary Surratt's trial and execution, a bitter oil strike in Pennsylvania, the attempt to stretch the trans-Atlantic cable, Robert E. Lee's horseback journey across Virginia to assume the presidency of Washington College, the building of the Union Pacific, and the rebuilding of the cities of Columbia, Charleston, and Atlanta. Through it all, the use of first-person accounts of these historic events brings a unique immediacy to the history .

************* In the second book released this fall, Hoehling leaves the Civil War period for a topic of more personal immediacy: the Liberty Ships of World War II, 2700 merchant vessels that carried supplies to American forces in every theater of war.

BENEDICT ARNOLD A Novel

The late Rev. Dr. William]. Wolf'40 Paideia Publisher (Ashfield, Mass.), 1990, 413 pages, $26 Author Bill Wolf died last June, just before this novel, his eighth book, was published. The Howard Chandler Robbins Professor Emeritus at the Episcopal Divinity School in Cambridge, Wolf delivered the Kellogg Lectures there in 1987 on story and novel as sources for religious reflection. In his previous books, all nonfiction, he wrote about topics in theology. One, The Almost Chosen People: Lincoln's R eligion, was selected for the White House Library by President Kennedy's Commission as representing the American experience. In the Lincoln book and one on Thoreau, Thoreau : Mystic, Prophet, Ecologist, Wolf described two heroic figures in American history. In this

novel on America's most infamous traitor he explores the life of a villain. Wolf said the Arnold story is "the story of every one of us, of how we cope with evil and good in our own lives, in the lives of those around us and in the history of nations." Wolfhad been fascinated with Arnold since reading Kenneth Roberts' novels . He explored and wrote about the Mohawk Trail, near the town of Heath, Mass ., where he lived, and during his college years he worked as a canoe guide in Arnold country. Many years ofhistorical investigation convinced him that only fiction answerable to historical accuracy could do justice to the traitor's story. The book's fictional protagonist and narrator learns that Arnold is more evil than he had thought, but also a better human being than could be admitted by his contemporaries. N early all of the major episodes of Arnold's life are recounted here, including the usually omitted 20 years after the treason, spent abroad. Writin g about the book in Booklist, the ALA publication, Jay Freeman calls it "meticulously researched" and "a fine work of historical fiction." "The characters, both real and fictitious, are compelling;" he w rites, "the dialogue, although invented, is succinct and plausible; and Wolfbeautifully describes the majesty and squalor of the Revolutionary War."

Associates, in Denver and San Antonio. He has served on the clinical faculty of two universities and a medical school in addition to being a staff member and consultant to several hospitals, private schools and industries. Individuals' growth and the process ofhuman behavior hold a fascination for Smith. In his view, human growth and individuals' relationships , organizations, societies and nations all follow clearly predictable stages. He believes, furthermore, that feelings are the one natural and universal connection that everyone shares. "There are differences in intellect, in social status, in cultural mores, in races, and in religions," he writes , "but we are very fundamentally alike in the recognition, perception, expression and resolution of our feelings." In this book Smith describes individuals ' natural feelings, the causes of those feelings, and how boys and girls are raised differently in regard to feelings. Intimacy is a function of individuals' awareness and communication of feelings, he writes. Intimacy can be taught, he says, but it is often lacking in relationships. The book contains exercises for couples in building intimacy; Smith captures each feeling described with a poem, many of them written by him. The author is currently working on two books, "The Disease Called Criticism" and "The Selection Process."

Discussing forensic science within the context of legal proceedings, for example, he examines: how, or if, the scientific integrity and evidence presented by an "expert witness" can be judged by a juror, attorney or judge; how procedures like DNA testing can invade the privacy of the suspect, and whether there is a responsibility to protect that suspect; how sophisticated crime information computer databases can release " bad" data , leading to the arrest of the wrong person or unusually severe sentences, in the case of conviction; and whether new forms of correction- through chemistry, electronics and self-help programs - really improve on past practices. Zonderman specializes in science technology and business in his writing.

He has coauthored three books, including two with his wife, Laurel Shader, M .D. He is a member of the adjunct faculty at the Columbia Journalism School and

RISK MANAGEMENT AND INSURANCE AUDIT TECHNIQUES Dwight E. Levick '50, The John Liner Organization (Boston, Mass.), 1990, $137 (updates available on an annual basis for $85) Written by an expert in the insurance field, this guidebook is designed to help risk managers or buyers of insurance determine the effectiveness of an insurance program through periodic audits of their risk management and insurance programs. The book guides the reader through the audit process. Financial officers, chief executives , consultants, insurance agents, students and underwriters all can benefit from this book. Annual supplements to the book will be published on topics including updated coverage information, new risk management strategies, developments in self-insurance, plus discussions of risk management techniques and coverages for "special situations," such as banks, hospitals, and municipalities . A Chartered Property and Casualty Underwriter and member of the Society of Risk Management Consultants, Levick has performed and supervised audits, special projects and continuing risk management services for a variety of national and international clients, including financial institutions, hospitals, and universities. He was for many years Special Projects Editor of The John Liner Letter, has written two textbooks and numerous technical papers on risk management, and lectured to professional groups on risk management and other insurance topics. Formerly president of the John Liner Organization, he is now an executive vice president of Kevin F. Donoghue & Associates, risk management consultants and corporate insurance advisors in Boston.

T hank you for your article about last spring's survey of women graduates from the college. I was pleased that you gave the results of the study, and the April conference, such thorough coverage. I. am writing now, with reference to the study, for two purposes . First, I want to thank the 990 women who took the time to respond to the survey. We especially benefitted from the many women who responded to our request for "a specific memory or two" about being a student at the college. These comments provided a broad view of the experiences of women at the college that we have never before had. Many of these comments included quite negative memories about experiences at Trinity - sad, angry, lonely, painful, disappointed. The interest in and concern about the negative aspects of these comments has been widespread and strong. This brings me to my second reason for writing: I am very optimistic about the usefulness of these survey results . In addition to becoming the focus of discussion for a number of campus committees and organizations, the Board ofTrustees has directed its Student Life Committee to gather more information and to submit proposals to the Board about the changes necessary to achieve equity for women on campus. This will surely lead to concrete improvements in student life at Trinity. The survey - and the individuals who supported it - have helped to sharpen the focus on these issues and, I believe, will play a role in making the years ahead at Trinity a more positive experience for women. I look forward to these changes and, again, extend my thanks to the women who helped begin this process.

Widener Exhibits Holocaust Art By Josef Nassy Barbed wire, guard towers and the faces of his fellow prisoners became subjects for Josef Nassy's artwork during World War II. As part of an international traveling exhibition and Black History Month at Trinity College, "In the Shadow of the Tower," will be displayed at Austin Arts Center's Widener Gallery from Tuesday, Jan. 22 through Friday, March 22. It includes over 100 powerful paintings and drawings created by Nassy (1904-1976) during his internment in Nazi prisoner-of-war camps . Exhibition curator Monica Rothschild-Boros will give a gallery talk on "The Art ofJosefNassy" on Sunday, Feb. 3 at 7:30p.m. Leon Bass, a member of the allblack U.S. Army unit that liberated the German concentration camp of Buchenwald in 1945, will speak about "The Black Soldier as Liberator of Buchenwald" on Monday, Feb. 4 at 4 p.m. in the Austin Arts Center. His talk will be followed by a reception to mark the show's opening. Through his artwork, Nassy, a black American artist ofJewish descent, documented his experiences in civilian prisoner-of-war camps in Belgium and Germany for three years following his arrest in 1942 by the Germans because of his American citizenship. "The significance of the collection is that it contributes both to the growing collection of art by black painters and to the genre of Holocaust art by showing a different facet of the war - the space between deportation and death or liberation ," explained Dori Katz, professor of modern languages, who has been instrumental in bringing the show to campus. Supplied with art materials by the International YMCA, Nassy created a body of work later known as the

prisoner-of-war suite. In it are delicate pencil portraits of his fellow internees and ink drawings which often had a caricature-like decisiveness. Nassy frequently used watercolor and ink washes for studies for larger oil paintings. He painted expressive, expansive skies in striking colors, against which he positioned his symbols of the camp: barbed wire, guard towers, solitary armed soldiers standing guard and silhouettes of the prisoners . After the war, Nassy was able to retrieve his work. Working in a different style, he continued to paint landscapes and portraits. He died in 1976. The prisoner-of-war suite was acquired by Severin Wunderman, a Holocaust survivor, chief executive officer of the Severin Group and founder of the Severin Wunderman Museum in Irvine, Calif. Organized by the Wunderman Museum, this exhibition reflects Wunderman's personal commitment to keep alive the memory of the Holocaust and to honor Nassy 's stipulation in his will that the collection not be broken up but maintained as a whole. The United States and European tour will continue through 1992. "In the Shadow of the Tower" may be seen daily from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. at Austin Arts Center's Widener Gallery. Admission to the show and lectures is free .

stunningly successful renovation and expansion have transformed the lovely Victorian structure at 123 Vernon Street into the Allan K. and Gwendolyn Miles Smith Alumni/Faculty House. The College's first facility designed exclusively for alumni and faculty gatherings, Smith House is also a welcoming home for guests of Trinity and a harmonious setting for meetings, parties and receptions. Planning and construction on the House have been underway for more than two years. One of the objectives of The Campaign for Trinity, the project was completed at a cost of $1.9 million, including construction, engineering and architectural fees, furnishings, and landscaping. The leadership gift for the House was made by Gwendolyn Miles Smith Hon. '90 and her husband, the late Allan K. Smith '11. A nine-member committee of alumni, faculty and College administrators, chaired by Vice President for Finance and Treasurer Robert A. Pedemonti '60, worked with the Boston architectural firm of Ann Beha Associates on the Smith House plans. The construction work was done by The FIP Corporation of Cheshire, Conn. and involved renovating the three-story house's existing 4,056 square feet and building an addition of approximately 3,000 feet. The addition incorporates a formal dining room seating 50 people, which was given by the Class of '61 in memory of their classmate, the late Thomas D. Reese.

Along with the dining room and kitchen, the first floor rooms include a reception area and three function rooms. The Ware Room, a small lounge, was made possible by gifts from friends of the late Constance E. Ware, former vice president for development at Trinity; a painting by Clay Kanzler '79 entitled "Morning Fog. 1988" and given to Trinity by the artist in Ware's memory, enjoys a prominent place in the room. The Cuppia Room, a sunny sitting room on the south side of the house, was given by Jerome C. Cuppia, Jr. '43. The Mason Room, an adjoining sitting/dining room, was made possible by a challenge gift from Phyllis Mason, widow of John Mason '34, former alumni secretary of the College, which was met by gifts from his many alumni friends and others. The second and third floors feature two meeting rooms, an office for the director of alumni and college relations, a sitting room, a serving kitchen, and five guest rooms with private baths. One meeting room was given by the College 's 16th president, James F. English, Jr., in memory of his father, The Rev. James F. English '16, leader of the Congregational Church in Connecticut for 26 years. Prominently placed in

the Engli sh Room is the official presidential portrait of James F. English, Jr. Hon. '89. Although the Smith House has entrances on Vernon Street and on its south side, the House's orientation was changed in the renovations to face south, into the campus. Landscaping for this southern side of the house was given special attention; gardens around its sweeping veranda were given by the Trustees in honor of President Emeritus James F. and Isabelle Cox English Hon. '88. According to Director of Alumni and College Relations Gerald J. Hansen, Jr. '51, one of the principals on the committee, the house at 123 Vernon Street, built in 1885 for a faculty member, was seen as the ideal site for the new facility from the start. "The location is perfect," Hansen said, " next to the President's house and just a few steps from the new Koeppel Student Center and Vernon Street dormitory. And, the College was committed to restoring an existing structure on campus, rather than building a new 000000000000000000 Photos by Jon Lester except as noted.

The wonderful architectural details - from the interior's decorative moldings to the charming gingerbread trim -have been highlighted in the renovations, so that its innate beauty is apparent. "It's exciting to have this beautiful and comfortable facility on campus. Reaction to it is universaleveryone loves Smith House! The House has already been used for trustee meetings and alumni events this fall , including Black Alumni Gathering, Leadership Weekend and Homecoming, and will be a focal point for alumni and other guests at special events such as Commencement, Alumni College and Reunion." "People seeing the House for the first time all remark on how wonderful it is," agrees Beth Sievers, acting manager of the Smith House. "I overheard a conversation between a guest artist from Italy who

was staying here and someone who had heard his group's performance say she felt the music in her soul. 'That's how I feel about the room that I'm staying in,' he said. This was his first visit to the States, and he felt at home here immediately." For Alexander "Sandy" Ogilby, son of the late President Remsen B. Ogilby, staying in Smith House on a recent trip through Connecticut involved a pleasant journey through nostalgia. He recalled the house as that of the next-door neighbors of his youth and remembered the grape arbors in the yard and wisteria growing along the house 's veranda. The house at 123 Vernon Street had been home to several generations of Trinity faculty and administrators and their families . Staffed by students round the clock, Smith House is now fully operational. Information on using the function rooms or guest rooms of Smith House is available by calling the manager at (203) 297-5241 or (203) 297-5245 . â&#x20AC;˘

e witnessed a celebration of democracy in Prague, we talked at length with members of Solidarity in War saw, and we had an hour-long discussion with a senior research fellow who advises the Kremlin on U.S. policy. We chipped away at the last remnants of the Berlin Wall, cruised on the Danube, and waded in the Bay of Finland. But, when the 20 of us recount this exciting adventure, what we always remember are the trains. Between July 2 and 18, we toured West and East Berlin, Prague, Budapest, Warsaw, Minsk, Leningrad and Moscow. Such an itinerary does not allow time to truly know a city and its people, but this sampling at this time of dramatic change was irresistible to 20

of us. Professor Brigitte Schulz of the Trinity political science department and I led a group of 18 alumni and friends of the College in a tour arranged by Academic Travel Abroad, Inc. of Washington, D.C. Our first tour was a swift bus ride around West Berlin, then into East Berlin. It was a rainy afternoon and evening, but the rain held off while we whacked at remnants of the Berlin Wall at Checkpoint Charlie. We shared a hammer and chisel rented from one of the enterprising Germans there. For about $5, we had 15 minutes to pound into the Wall. We all left with pocketfuls of chiseled concrete, delighted to have had a part in the Wall's destruction.

We dined in a smoke-filled East Berlin tavern that was lacking the jovial sounds we associate with a corner pub. We found those back in West Berlin where we sampled a sweet beer and passed some time till our 11 p.m. train. Our luxurious coach deposited us in a dimly lit, crowded, hostile train station and we raced to the track rather than linger among the scary mobs of punks warring with one another. The train was dismal. We were six to a compartment, each of us with two weeks worth of luggage. Windows were jammed shut and barely clear enough to see through. The musty, dank scent hung all around us, and everything was so filthy. After the initial shock, we recovered our senses of humor and patted ourselves on the back for making the best of this dreary situation. Fortunately, we did not know then that this would be among the better trains we would board. The best thing to be said about the train is where it deposited us: in Prague, an enchanting city that many of us talk about seeing again. Everywhere we turned, we found beautiful architecture, buildings decorated with sculpture and frescoes. We lingered on an ancient stone bridge lined with statues, and we wandered through rambling, narrow streets. On the Fourth of July, we met with leaders of Civic Forum, the movement that replaced a Communist government with Vaclav Havel, AnneGushee a poet and playwright. We joined in the people's "karnivale of demokracie" at Hradcany Castle the day the new parliament reelected Havel president. Some of us were just several feet away from Havel as he was escorted out the castle courtyard. Our guide, a very bright, energetic and fun 30-year-old woman named Dana, was ecstatic. Twice before she had tried to get a glimpse of her new president and missed him. The look on her face after she saw him made this momentous occasion tremendously more exciting for us. Just one night in a stationary bed and we were back on a train the next night. We were getting smarter about this, though. We purchased a few extra beds where we stowed luggage so we could at least spread out a little. And we had picked up some Czechoslovakian liqueur and other tasty beverages for the ride. We shared the good cheer and slept a little better.

Alumni Journey Through Contemporary History

Stephen lewis '86

Budapest is a lovely city, especially so with two nights in a luxurious hotel nestled on an island in the Danube. Ferenc, our young guide, proudly showed off his city from Fisherman's Bastion on Castle Hill to Heroes' Square with its monuments of saints and soldiers. At night, the Danube reflects the landmark Chain Bridge outlined in white lights. Above it on the river's bank the Castle Palace dominates the skyline. We ventured outside the city to Szentendre, a charming small town in the hills 12 miles north of

Budapest. There we ate lunch, strolled and shopped. Enroute back to the city, we stopped on a hillside high above a sharp bend in the Danube to soak in an unforgettable view. Another day and a short flight later, we were in Warsaw, a city that had been leveled in World War II, but has managed to recreate some of the earlier charm it apparently had known for centuries. Our guide stood with his back to the square in Old Town and held up a large black and white photograph. He pointed to the colorful, ornate

buildings behind him, then showed us the photograph, taken in 1945, with the bare outline of the building that was left standing in the rubble. One afternoon we rode out to Zelazowa Wola, where we visited the birthplace of Frederic Chopin. A concert pianist filled the simple but charming house and its surrounding gardens with the composer's music, lifting us into another world. After a couple of days in Warsaw, we boarded the train for Minsk, a 16-hour journey. This

was the train that would make the first two look like first-class. Once we rushed our luggage aboard in an assembly-line fashion at which we'd become rather adept, we looked around in shock and dismay. If the other trains were dirty, how would we describe this? Adding to the stench and filth were burlap-covered mattresses and pillows that we were sure had lice and/or fleas. The wood-burning samovar at the end of the car was a charming touch, but only made us think how this train must predate the Revolution.

Alumni Journey Through Contemporary History As one of the tour leaders, I went around to each member of the group to see how they were adjusting. Most were okay; one asked to be left alone while she composed herself. This was depressing, but thankfully my co-leader, Gitte, knew just how to restore our spirits. She spread a cloth over a small table in our compartment, opened up her bag and laid out fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, cheese, sausage, bread and a bottle of brandy. Soon others joined us, bringing their food and drink with them. For many of us, this most dreary train holds the special distinction of being both the worst and best of our memories. Among the sites we visited while staying in Minsk was Khatin, a memorial to the villages destroyed by the Nazis in the 1940s. Unlike so many monuments and memorials, this one shook every one of us. Our guide, Zena, explained the black and concrete shapes spread across a few acres. The roof shape in one area symbolizes the bam where villagers, including children, were rounded up and burned to death. The numerous concrete outlines show where houses were, each with a chimney-like stack that holds a mourning bell and a plaque listing the names of the family members and the children 's ages. One large looming sculpture is of the only man who survived the bam burning, and he is depicted cradling the limp body of his dead grandson. This memorial stands for the hundreds of Russian villages destroyed in such horrific times. We flew Aeroflot, the Soviet airline, to Leningrad. Mid-July was still in plenty of time to experience the " white nights" when the sun does not set until 11 :30 at night. Our first evening a group of

us strolled the main street, Nevsky Prospekt, and stood practically alone in the huge square outside the Hermitage. It was around 10:30 p.m. and just dusk. Elegant, brightly colored architecture and winding canals were all around us. Over the next couple of days, we would see dramatic skies where clouds and blue and gray are constantly shifting. Like Prague, Leningrad is a city many of us hope to visit again some day. On our last day in Leningrad as we rode together on the tour bus, one member of our group asked our guide, Ana, "What is the best thing about living in the Soviet Union today?" She said she would have to think about this and would give us her answer that night on the way to the train station. Ana was a 30-year veteran of Intourist, the Soviet Union's state-run travel agency (needless to say, it has no private competition). To have held this position all those years, where she was in constant contact with tourists, we knew she must have supported the Communist Party line. The leaders must have been confident she would present only the best picture of communism. So, her reply that night genuinely surprised us. She told us her three favorite aspects of Soviet life were, first, "Glasnost, freedom of speech. The newspapers are so interesting. I read all of them cover to cover. I never used to. The old fear is gone. There is an interesting mass media with no fear of saying something wrong." Second, she continued, "Freedom of conscience, the revival of religion is spreading like fLre. It's been suppressed so long.

Ten years ago, we didn't have the word 'spirituality' in our dialogue. It's very positive." And lastly, she said, "Private enterprise. When I see the Vemisage (a park surrounded by artists selling their works) I see how much talent is in this country. Talents are blooming. People find creative ways to express themselves. "We do not give up hope. Things move slow but in the right direction." Our final overnight train ride took us to Moscow. In sharp contrast to all of our other trains, this one was clean, bright, air conditioned, and it slept only two to a compartment. We agreed that if we had started out on such a train, the others would have seemed even worse. Moscow, as our Leningrad guide had warned us, was a big city, and our hotel was huge and noisy. But, the Kremlin and Red Square dazzled us. After our "gala farewell dinner" of caviar, champagne and other assorted delights, we took the Moscow Metro to Red Square around 11 p.m. Each of us stood with the ornate St. Basil' s Cathedral in the background as Jon Tiefenbrun '63 videotaped us recounting our most memorable moments of the trip. The sites, current events, even the trains, and particularly my fellow travelers, made the entire experience one of life's most memorable.

The changing rules in the college rating game

B ack in October, U.S. News & World Report released its annual rankings of the nation's best colleges and universities. Trinity, which a year earlier had ranked 20th on the list of national liberal arts colleges, fell out of the top 25 and landed in "Quartile One." This ranks Trinity somewhere between 26th and 36th place according to the U.S. News yardstick. A closer look at the magazine's methodology, however, shows that the measuring criteria have changed from one year to the next. This year's model definitely worked to Trinity's disadvantage. As a result, the College has taken steps to see if the process can be made more equitable in future years, despite serious qualms about the rating game in general. The fact is that neither Trinity nor any other institution of quality is going out of its way to make this list. Ever since the magazine began its rankings some years ago, many college presidents, including those of the toprated institutions, have publicly criticized this attempt to make comparisons among colleges and universities. There have been numerous questions raised about the methodology, and many institutions have consistently refused to respond to the "reputational survey." As a device to sell magazines, the annual ranking works very well; as a measure of relative worth of colleges, it is superficial at best. Having said this, there's no question that we would prefer to be on the list, not off it. Many colleges use their inclusion on the list as a marketing tool. From an image standpoint, being on the list is an advantage with prospective students and alumni, even though the data is suspect. Obviously, U.S. News intends to perpetuate this annual rating as long as it boosts sales. Since the survey appeared, President Gerety has made several suggestions to the magazine's editors to make the comparisons more equitable. Among his recommendations are the following: I. In the case of small colleges, compare undergraduate enrollments only, as most of the top schools are strictly undergraduate institutions. On this basis Trinity 's enrollment would be 1,772 instead of the 2,131 listed in the magazine. Using this figure, our spending per student is $19,833 instead of the $16,492 calculated by U.S. News. (This one change in methodology from 1989 probably knocked us out the top 25.)

2. Convert part-time students to full-time equivalents. Trinity, with 197 part-time undergraduate students, most of whom are taking only one course, is being measured on a different scale when the magazine counts these students the same as full-time ones. It's particularly unfortunate that the Individualized Degree Program, in which we take great pride, is literally counting against us in the magazine's calculations. Similarly, U.S. News counted Trinity's graduate students as if they were full-time. 3. Consider other factors that reflect the quality and aspirations of colleges. The size of the library collection, measures not only present fmancial strength, but also intellectual resources and commitment to academic excellence, something that cannot be bought in a hort period of time. Trinity has one of the best small college libraries in the country. Another area to consider is minority enrollment and minority faculty and staff as a reflection of the institution's willingness to innovate and diversify the educational process. In the last year we made major advances in diversity. 4. Reconsider using SAT scores as a comparative statistic. Schools like Bates and Bowdoin, for instance, do not require SATs, so the only scores submitted by prospective students are high ones, resulting in a highly inflated "average." Similarly, class rank is a tainted measure because many secondary schools do not rank their students. At Trinity, nearly half of our freshmen come to us unranked. Also, because of qualitative differences among school systems, class rank is not a consistent measure from one system to the next. President Gerety's comments clearly illustrate some of the pitfalls inherent in making comparative judgments. It should be noted, however, that Trinity's response to U.S. News does not represent a change of heart about the validity of the survey. But, as long as the magazine continues this feature, we must do all we can to see that Trinity is not penalized unfairly. Even if all the foregoing suggestions were to be adopted, however, (and, to date, the magazine has been receptive to President Gerety's commentary) the rating process remains highly flawed . Institutions of good conscience will continue to resist all attempts to create academic pecking orders. W.L.C.

As the year begins, I have launched a major effort of strategic planning for the College. At the direction of the Board I have appointed a steering committee that will seek to engage the entire College community in this important process. In terms of the decisions that we will have to make and the consequences those decisio~s will have for many years, this may be the most important task I will undertake as President. As we begin this process, we draw strength from Trinity's identity as a first-rate liberal arts college.

FROM THE PRESIDENT

A Teaching Tradition

s I write to you now to reflect on the year that has passed and to look ahead to Trinity's future, I am struck by the uncertainties that face us all. Harsh news from the Persian Gulf and elsewhere in the world together with our nation's economic difficulties underscore the challenges we face as a liberal arts college. For Trinity, and for colleges like us, the N ew Year and the new decade bring the challenge of more difficult fiscal choices than we have faced in many years. For 40 years or so higher education in America has grown. At Trinity we have built well in this period of growth, with prudence and care for the future. We have strengthened our academic programs, we have built up our physical plant, and we have increased our endowment. The next several years will not bring much growth to education- not in budgets, or size, or resources. We will have to make choices, and often hard choices, between what is necessary and what is not, between what we can do and what we cannot. We will have to choose with a strong sense of identity, of who we are and where we are going.

All of us here at Trinity measure our achievements by the contribution we make to learning.

Our efforts must now turn to renewing and revising our traditions and our vision in a period of scarce resources. 2R

Teaching lies at the heart of all that we do: we come together here at Trinity to work as students and teachers in the great tradition of the liberal arts. We believe that this tradition leads our students towards a sense of freedom, towards a sense of mastery and choice in a complicated world. I knew as I began that Trinity was a fine teaching college, but it is better than I knew or even hoped. All of us here at Trinity measure our achievements by the contribution we make to learning. Whether it is faculty research or a librarian's help in finding a reference, coaching a student in computing or in swimming, we share a sense of purpose and direction: we are here to keep alive Trinity's tradition of fine teaching in the liberal arts. We see this every day on campus in the intellectual camaraderie between student and faculty, in the intense give-and-take of our classrooms, in the passionate discussions in the Cave in the artwork that spills out of Austi~. Each year we renew our teaching traditions. Dean Cohn's report tells of wonderful appointments this year bringing new strength and new diversity to the faculty. Our studentfaculty ratio of roughly 10 to 1 allows intellectual activity to extend beyond the classroom and into the daily lives

of our students. Faculty at Trinity care about teaching in a way that has become more and more unusual in our time. This year we began a new faculty orientation program emphasizing teaching. We held workshops on writing and reasoning across the curriculum. And the faculty continued its quest for interdisciplinary collaboration, notably in the creation of the neuroscience major. In the beauty ofTrinity's campus, in its arches, peaks and Gothic details, we catch an echo of the traditions behind our commitments. Our quadrangles make us a village in the city. Curiosity thrives in an atmosphere where strongly held ideas and opinions are welcomed- and criticized. We want this campus to be a lively, stimulating place where the energies of our young people are engaged in performance, in athletics, in debate and in service. To these ends we place an extraordinary emphasis on extracurricular life. We educate the whole person, not just the intellect. The vitality of the arts at Trinity shows the many ways in which sensibility and taste give expression to intelligence. Sports thrive here, and we are proud of our traditions in competitions among ourselves and with other schools. Our many residential programs are part of our learning and teaching. We do not and we cannot live in secluded comfort here at the College. We must reach out to our neighbors and to the larger community that surrounds us, learning from others, always tempering our idealism with practicality. Here in Hartford our students can speak Spanish on the street corner, intern with legislators at the State Capitol, or make a real difference in the lives oflocal youngsters through volunteer programs.

Alumni Spirit Trinity draws its strength, its wealth and many of its students from our alumni body. As I traveled around the country meeting alumni and parents during the past year, I found not just respect and enthusiasm but a passion for Trinity- among both those who hold our degree and those whose sons and daughters now seek it. We see increasing participation in the Alumni Admissions Support Program, in area and parent associations, in reunions and in fund raising. This spirit helps secure our future. We cannot deny that Trinity's commitments come at a high price. The pool of secondary school students is at an all-time low, and our traditional markets in the Northeast are shrinking. As our tuition has risen, we face the danger of drawing our student body only from the highest and lowest income sectors of the nation's families. To counter these pressures, we must manage our resources frugally: 20 consecutive years of balanced budgets attest to our habits of careful management; we cannot desert them now. Nor can we escape the need to direct more of our resources into financial aid, to compensate for reduced funding from federal and state sources and to help families encountering difficulties of their own. We grapple here with the most difficult questions of American society, including questions of race and gender, but also many others. There has been some visible progress: Trinity has never been more varied than it is now in its students, faculty and staff All of us must learn from others who are quite different from ourselves. We must balance informed inquiry and robust debate. Trinity has always produced leaders; the new dynamics of our campus will yield generations of leadership that represent the many facets of our society.

Like nowhere else I have ever lived, Trinity gives a sense of place, of rootedness and liveliness in a certain spot. Here many have gone before us and many will come after, through the same arches, across the same lawns, with aspirations and obstacles much like our own. The seasons themselves multiply on a college campus. To the four seasons, the College adds its own- registration, graduation, winter break when all is still, and the first day of class in the New Year when the walk is thronged with blue jeans and parkas. Our efforts must now tum to renewing and revising our traditions and our vision in a period of scarce resources. In my own efforts I have the constant support of gifted and thoughtful colleagues among the faculty and staff In the rest of this report our deans and vice presidents discuss recent initiatives in the academic arena, in admissions, student life, fmances and advancement. Please take the time to read these through. This report concludes with a compilation of the distinguished scholarship of our faculty, in which we take great pride. To everyone who contributed to making the freshman year of my presidency a time of great learning and exhilaration, I am grateful.

FROM THE DEAN OF THE FACUL1Y

he 1989-90 academic year was exceptionally successful in several areas of faculty activity and academic emphasis. A considerable amount of energy and creativity went into faculty workshops on teaching and into planning for changes in the freshman year and for the introduction of a new faculty orientation. The scholarly and creative work of the Trinity faculty was realized in numerous publications, presentations, performances, exhibitions, fellowships and grants, many of which are listed at the end of this annual report. Especially noteworthy were the efforts of all the recruitment committees, for the new faculty members brought to Trinity for the 1990-91 academic year are a remarkable group of teacher-scholars.

Aconsiderable amount of New Faculty energy and creativity went To begin, then, with some of the into faculty workshops on new members of the Trinity faculty. teaching and into planning for Three of our new faculty have been changes in the freshman year appointed at the rank of associate and for the introduction of a professor. Robert Kirschbaum, associate professor of fine arts, is the new faculty orientation.

new director of studio arts. Ronald Thomas, associate professor of English, comes to us from the University of Chicago; his book, Dreams o}Authority: Freud and Fictions of the Unconscious, will be published this year by Cornell University Press. Jerry Watts, associate professor of American studies, is Trinity's first full-time appointment in the newly-revised American studies program; he comes to us from Wesleyan, where he had appointments in both government and Mro-American studies. There are four new coaches at Trinity this year. John Anz is the new head coach of men's squash, and is coaching tennis as well. William Decker, our new head baseball coach, was previously at Macalester College. Steven Fluhr, director of rowing, comes from the Florida Institute ofTechnology. And Edmond Mighten, co-head coach of men's soccer and head coach of men's and women's outdoor track, was previously at Connecticut College. Tenure-track assistant professors have been appointed in several departments and programs. Kathleen Archer, biology, is a plant physiologist whose most recent appointment was as a postdoctoral feliow at the University ofWisconsin. Carol Clark, economics, is a specialist in the USSR with a doctorate from Cornell University. Kathleen Curran, fine arts, is an architectural historian; she comes to us from a teaching position at Brown University. Dario Euraque, history, is a specialist in Latin American history with a joint appointment between the history department and the area studies program; he has recently completed his Ph.D. at the University of Wisconsin. Mark Friedman,

computer science, also comes to us from the University ofWisconsin; he is a computer scientist with training as well in computer engineering. Kathlene Kete, history, is a specialist in French history; she has her doctorate from Harvard University. Katherine Lahti, modern languages, is a Russianist; she has done her doctoral work at Yale University and has taught for two years at Bowdoin College. Judith Moran, mathematics, has taught for the past several years at Smith College while working on her Ph.D. at the University of Massachusetts. The Ann Plato Fellowship, in its second year, was awarded to Gabrielle Foreman, who is completing her doctoral work at the University of California, Berkeley. In addition to the Ann Plato Fellowship, and through the generous cooperation of the department of fine arts, Trinity was able to award an Austin Fellowship in 1990-91. Our first Austin Fellow is Paul Rogers, who is completing a Ph.D. in fine arts at Yale University. Two non-academic appointments deserve note as well since both have great significance for Trinity's academic programs. Nancy Birch Wagner is our new registrar; replacingJohn Woolley, Jeffry Walker is the new director of the Austin Arts Center.

Orientation and Workshops All new faculty members, along with those whose appointments began in September 1989, were invited to a two-day orientation, planned and run by members of the faculty, chiefly, Professors Noreen Channels, Dina Anselmi, Henry DePhillips, Dan Lloyd, Beverly

Wall and Diane Zannoni. This orientation focused on teaching, but served as well to introduce new members of our community to information about that community. There was, as well, ample opportunity simply to strike up new acquaintances and make new friendships. The orientation was a major success and it will be continued. The impetus, indeed the inspiration, for the orientation was the series of faculty workshops that have been occurring at Trinity over the past few years. From the first Writing Across the Curriculum Workshop organized by Professors Dina Anselmi and Diane Zannoni, we have continued with additional writing workshops, under the guidance of Beverly Wall, director of the writing center, and added new ones in Reasoning and in Mathematics Across the Curriculum, the last of these led by Tim Craine, director of the mathematics center. All of these efforts have encouraged wider discussions about teaching methods, some of which have been published in issues of The Write Stuff and, recently, in a booklet on teaching innovations edited by Professor Dan Lloyd for the Friday Committee. Finally, it is with pleasure that I note the action of the trustees last spring. At that time, comparative data showed that the salaries of Trinity faculty at the rank of assistant professor and professor had fallen behind those of their peers at comparable institutions. To help offset that disparity, the trustees allocated funds to make up 75 percent of that salary difference.

Racism and Sexism Workshops

FROM THE

DEAN OF STUDENTS

here is a tendency in some quarters to think of Trinity, or any college, as enjoying an "ivory tower existence." Those of us who live and work here know that the complex social issues of our day, ones that tear at the fabric of our society, do not stop outside Trinity's front gates. Questions of race and gender, or class inequities, for example, are as vexing and destructive on a college campus as they are in the world beyond our gates. The Dean of Students' Office is committed to bringing Trinity students an increased knowledge and sensitivity to these issues which they will undoubtedly be facing after they leave the College. In the 1989-90 academic year, our office planned special programming and established new grievance policy guidelines in areas such as racial harassment, aimed at educating on these larger societal concerns.

Questions of race and gender, or doss inequities, for example, are as vexing and destructive on a college campus as they are in the world beyond our gates. 6R

At New Student Orientation, for example, Trinity faculty led workshop discussions about racism and sexism, encouraging freshmen to think about the issues in a new light. Follow-up sessions in freshman seminars during the fall semester continued the dialogue. In the spring semester an ad hoc committee of students, faculty, administrators and staff planned Sexual Assault Awareness Week. Thirteen events, ranging from a panel presenting the resources available to help students report and receive counseling about sexual assaults to a "Take Back the Night" march and rally, were attended by more than 800 people. As a direct result of the heightened awareness among students about sexual assault and harassment, a peer counseling program was developed. Students trained by a local sexual assault crisis service are available to counsel victims of assault. Staff of the College Counseling Center, Women's Center, and the deans themselves have been called upon increasingly to provide counseling to victims of sexual assault. Education and programming efforts have been supplemented by strong policies decrying acts of racial or sexual harassment. New brochures outlining the College's policies against sexual harassment and racial harassment were distributed to the entire Trinity community; grievance committees adjudicate violations of either policy. The Racial Harassment Committee, in its first year, was put to a hard test early in the spring when it heard a complaint against a member of the Nation oflslam, who had spoken on campus in November. While painful, this and other incidents during the year initiated a healthy

Among the innovations and successes of the past year was a program to integrate further the academic and residential experience of freshmen.

dialogue on campus, wherein students, faculty and administrators spoke openly and often eloquently about racism and sexism.

Counseling Tackling these difficult issues is only a part, albeit a significant one, of the larger mission of the Dean of Students' Office-namely, to support and enhance the academic experience of our students. This is accomplished chiefly through oneto-one counseling of students about academic and non-academic problems, through providing guidance to student groups, and offering programs which teach time management and study skills. In any given year the Dean of Students' Office keeps more than 4,500 individual appointments with students.

The Freshman Year Among the innovations and successes of the 1989-90 year was one designed by the Office of Residential Life to enhance the freshman year for many students. To further integrate the academic and residential experience in the first year, the Office designated Jones Dormitory as an all-freshman residence. Jones moved from a shared living space to one where innovative programming was taking place. "University 101" presented weekly events in the Dorm with content that ranged from cultural to intellectual and political. Two freshman seminars sharing a common theme had class meetings in Jones, and seminar members took joint field trips. So successful was the ''Jones Experience" that this year Jarvis Dormitory joined the allfreshman roster. In all, the Office of Residential Life conducted more than 1,500 programs within our 24 dormitories and around the campus.

Community Outreach Student groups were engaged in important projects as well. Community Outreach placed 300 volunteers in over a dozen projects in the community; Trinity students were tutors in local public schools, he lped build houses for Habitat for Humanity, and worked in soup kitchens. Another group of students started a recycling program on campus, which is in full operation this year. A new academic and social honor code for Trinity, proposed by the Student Government Association, is now under study by the facu lty and administration. There is great concern in academic circles currently surrounding the "challenges of diversity" facing most colleges and universities. The challenge is very real, though there has been so much attention paid that sometimes talk of it is dismissed as "just another cliche." What should never become commonplace is how institutions face those challenges and how they creatively meet the needs of students from a variety of backgrounds. During the 1989-90 academic year, the Dean of Students' Office tried, with the support of students, faculty and administrators, to create a community that is flexible, strong and caring. With all their help we'll continue our work toward that goal.

Academic Quality

FROM THE

DEAN OF ADMISSIONS AND FINANCIAL AID ggressive, targeted recruitment, with an ever-watchful eye on academic quality and ability, was the hallmark of the admissions effort at Trinity during the 1989-90 year. Facing a decline of nearly 10 percent in the number of high school graduates in its primary market areas, Trinity maintained a stable applicant pool with less than a two percent drop from the previous year's totals. This slight downturn (only 46 applications out of a pool of nearly 3000) was far smaller than the sharp declines experienced by many of the College's primary competitors. However, it was the end of the cycle, in terms of the yield on offers of admission, which turned out to be less predictable than expected. Most institutions, including Trinity, were compelled to tum to their waiting lists to obtain the last 5 to 10 percent of their freshman classes. The final number of students in the class- 427was somewhat smaller than usual. A deep and capable transfer applicant pool, however, enabled us to enroll a total of 472 new students in September, thereby providing a"buffer" against the national demographic trends.

Despite the signific111t national drop-off in the number of high school graduates,- the academk profle of the entering class is as good as or better than that of its innnediate predecessors.

Despite the significant national drop-off in the number ofhigh school graduates, the academic credentials of the applicant pool at Trinity remained high. In terms of test scores, class standing, average grades, and number of advanced courses, the academic profile of the entering class is as good as or better than that of its immediate predecessors. When one looks further, the diversity and strength of this group become even more clear. The class comes from 31 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and 13 foreign countries. The freshmen bring with them a wide array of backgrounds and experiences, which can only serve to enliven class discussions as well as improve the learning pro- ' cesses that occur in the Cave, on the playing fields, and in the dormitories. Especially noteworthy is the fact that 17.5 percent of the Class of 1994 are minority students, the highest such percentage of any Trinity class to date. Several other important admissions goals were realized with the enrollment of the Class of 1994. The male/ female ratio approached an even 5050 mix. For the second straight year, the number of students expressing a strong possible interest in majoring in either mathematics or the natural sciences exceeded 20 percent of the entering class, a marked increase as compared to classes of a few years ago. Finally, the Class contained a healthy mix of public vs. independent schooling; urban, rural, and suburban backgrounds; talents in the arts, athletics, and other areas of involvement; and many other personal factors and characteristics.

Financial Aid Recruiting and retaining such an able student body at Trinity would be virtually impossible, however, were it

Financial aid was again the single fastest growing segment of the College's operating budget this year.

not for the College's strong commitment to financial aid. In 1989-90, a record amount of over $6 million was awarded to approximately 40 percent of the student body to help with educational expenses. Of this total, over $4.5 million came from Trinity funds. Unlike some of its sister institutions, Trinity remains among the group of selective independent colleges and universities that continues to employ a policy of aid-blind admission, with admission decisions kept independent of the financial circumstances of our applicants. For many years, the College has been able to meet the full demonstrated need of all of our admitted applicants, employing a need-based system of distributing resources so as to assure that students who most need help to attend Trinity will receive it. Financial aid was again the single fastest growing segment of the College's operating budget this year. With prospects for increased federal or state assistance gloomy at best in the current economic climate, the College must continue to rely on both its endowment and its generous supporters for the resources necessary to help maintain the quality and diversity of the current student body.

Alumni Admissions Support Program Of great assistance to the admissions effort this year was the rejuvenated Alumni Admissions Support Program, with over 400 volunteers now participating nationwide. Revived in 1987 after a number of years of very little activity, the Program has been expanded rapidly, becoming an important component of the admissions effort. Hundreds of alumni actively represented the College in some fashion during the past year, attending college nights, conducting

interviews, making congratulatory phone calls to admitted applicants, hosting receptions, and the like. As the demographic decline continues during the next several years, we will need to draw even more heavily on the work of these alumni volunteers in order to expand our reach and keep Trinity's name in front of families and students across the country. In the first sentence of this report, I made reference to the need to be aggressive in our efforts for the remainder of the decade. As the numbers ofhigh school graduates have declined, the level of competition for qualified and attractive students has increased dramatically. Many excellent students have a dazzling array of possible college choices, and we need to be sure that appropriate messages concerning Trinity's quality and special nature are directed in a targeted fashion at these outstanding students and their families. We will continue through this difficult period realizing that there is much to be done, but also understanding that Trinity is one of a very small number of selective colleges and universities across the country that is operating from a position of relative strength in these uncertain times. We certainly cannot become complacent or passive. If we do, we will surely find that our competitors have outdistanced us in the "race" for the relatively small pool of highly qualified high school graduates. But we know also that we have the resources, the reputation, the faculty, the alumni support, and the long tradition of excellence which will enable us to compete successfully in this arena during the lean years ahead. -David Borus

The College's endowment reached its highest level ever- $137.3 million as of June 30, 1990.

lOR

he College concluded its 20th consecutive year with a balanced budget. This continued record of careful stewardship reflects the strong financial position that the College will carry into the nineties. Undergraduate tuition revenues, endowment income and annual giving receipts continue to be the College's three largest sources of income, accounting for more than 82 percent of educational and general revenues and 70 percent of total revenues. In support of the 1989-90 operating budget, the College set tuition and fees at $18,500. However, this figure did not cover the full cost of a Trinity education as each student received a subsidy of more than $6,000 from endowment income, annual giving and other sources. Total budget spending in 1989-90 increased approximately10 percent and exceeded $46 million. A quality education is not only expensive, but also labor-intensive: compensation accounts for nearly half ofTrinity's expenditures. Employee benefit costs went up by 12 percent to over $4

million, due mainly to the increases for health insurance. Utilities expenditures increased by over 19 percent (to almost $1.7 million) , because of increased consumption and last winter's escalating prices. Alterations and repairs to College facilities continue to grow at a rate of almost 22 percent (similar to last year's growth) as the College strives to maintain an aging physical plant. Financial aid, the fastest growing expense category in our budget, increased 15 percent ($866,000) over 1988-89 as we continued to support the needs of every student with demonstrated financial need. Trinity has also been using its own funds to make up the shortfall of aid monies from federal, state and other sources. This has meant an increase of25 percent ($635,000) in College funds used for financial aid in 198990. Trinity's contribution from operating revenues in 1989-90 totaled $3.15 million, up eightfold from the College's share of $385,000 recorded 10 years ago. The College's endowment reached its highest level ever$137.3 million as ofJune 30, 1990. At this time, Trinity's combined asset allocation was 52 percent stocks, 34 percent bonds, 4 percent real estate and 10 percent cash reserves. This amount included $5.1 million of gifts and additions, equaling the record gifts that were recorded in the 1985-86 period. The portfolio's total return (income plus realized and unrealized appreciation) was 11.4 percent.

The most ambitious construction and renovation program in College history was initiated in fiscal 1989-90.

Construction Projects The most ambitious construction and renovation program in College history was initiated in fiscal 1989-90: contracts awarded exceeded more than $15 million. Work began in July 1989 at the southern end of the campus on the "New Academic Building" which will cost $8.4 million to build. Designed by Cesar Pelli, the 48,000-square-foot structure will house the departments of mathematics, engineering and computer science, as well as the College's computer center and administrative computing operations.

The renovation and expansion of the Victorian building at 123 Vernon Street, at a cost of$1.4 million, has resulted in the Allan Kellogg Smith and Gwendolyn Miles Smith Alumni/ Faculty House, a very beautiful and spectacular addition to the campus. The architects, Ann Beha Associates of Boston, working with a building committee of alumni, faculty and administrators, have produced a building that has both elegance and warmth. This 11,300-square-foot facility provides much needed meeting rooms, dining facilities, and guest rooms.

The College is adding 10 new squash courts to Ferris Athletic Center at a construction cost of$1.9 million. The project encompasses 10,500 square feet of new construction, and will contain seven American courts and three international courts. All courts will have glass back walls and there will be spectator seating for 150 people at one exhibition court. All three projects cited above will be funded, in the main, by the recently completed Campaign for Trinity which raised $50 million. Total costs for the three projects, including construction costs, architectural and engineering fees , furnishings and other related expenses, will approximate $14.1 million at the time of completion. Other路 capital projects and enhancements to the physical plant completed during 1989-90 include the renovation project at 115 Vernon Street (the English departr:nent) ; refurbishment ofJones and Stowe dormitories; reconstruction of the outdoor track at Jessee Field; extension of the College's state-of-the-art telephone system into student rooms; and installation of a handsome, intricately hand-carved sedilia in the Chapel. The latter was a gift from former Trinity President and Trustee Emeritus G . Keith Funston. Trinity, like most institutions of higher learning, faces many pressures in the coming decade. A soft' economy, discouraging demographics, reduced investment returns, rising medical and energy costs, and a growing financial aid budget are among the immediate challenges facing the College. It is my belief that Trinity has the creative leadership, financial stability and loyal alumni support to meet the tests of the times.

. FROM THE VICE PRESIDENT FOR COLLEGE ADVANCEMENT

Many individuals made a powerful commitment of time in Trinity's behalf. More than 1,500 alumni and friends volunteered to help with admissions, phonathons, reunion and class giving, student mentoring and career placement, area associations and governing boards. Alumni also made a significant time commitment by returning to reunion in record numbers: more than 1,400 individuals came back to the. campus in June. The Class of 1985 brought back 167 members for its fifth reunion, an all-time record of any reunion class in the College's history.

National Visibility n July 2, 1990, I joined Trinity's administration as vice president for college advancement. This move is proving to be one of the happiest decisions I've made. Because I'm new, my report will focus less on the accomplishments of the previous year and more on the role the Advancement Division will play in Trinity's future. College Advancement consists of Alumni Relations, Development, Public Relations, and Government Relations. Together, we seek to foster long-term commitments between Trinity and its constituents, so that the College can attract outstanding students and facu lty and raise the maximum in gift dollars to meet our educational priorities. During the past year we made great strides in meeting our goals. We raised over $9 million in support of our educational programs. Alumni contributed $4.5 million of the total ; parents and other friends donated approximately $1 million.

More than l,SOO alumni and friends volunteered to help with admissions, phonathons, reunion and class giving, student mentoring and career placement, area associations and governing boards.

One of the ways we foster longterm commitments is by keeping Trinity's name before potential students, their parents and guidance counselors, as well as our alumni and friends. Last year, President Gerety's Convocation Address against racism made The New York Times as did stories about our freshman dormitories and issues of free speech on campus. Other major coverage on Trinity faculty, guest lecturers and activities appeared in The New Republic, The Washington Post, The Baltimore Sun, and on CBS' "Sunday Morning with Charles Kuralt." Our own publications have also been well read and received. Among several honors was a bronze medal from the Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE) for a recruitment video- a joint project of the public relations and admissions offices.

Anew stewardship program is in place so that the president, faculty and students can tell each of you, our donors and volunteers, precisely how your gift made a difference.

Looking Ahead As you can tell from President Gerety's introductory commentary, Trinity is facing difficult times with optimism, a strong sense of self, and with concrete plans for not merely weathering the storm, but emerging as a s~ronger institution. College Advanc_e ment will play a key role in this process. We have reorganized the development staff with a focus on strong, timely support of our volunteers and more personal interactions with alumni and friends. A new stewardship program is in place so that the president, faculty and students can tell each of you, our donors and volunteers, precisely how your gift made a difference. Increasing the number of area associations and providing sound, prompt support for the leadership is another important focus for us. To this end, we are working closely with the executive committee of the National Alumni Association. Increased interaction with the faculty, so that we can bring news of their teaching and research innovations to our friends, is a third area of focus . With the cooperation of Dean of the Faculty Jan Cohn, we have made the Faculty Grants Office part of the Advancement Division. We are also meeting with individual faculty more frequently, and working closely with the Dean's Office on academic proposals and projects. So, I conclude as I began. I have joined a wonderful organization and a distinguished college. There is much to accomplish in 1991, and I look forward to working with you to keep Trinity among the nation's leading liberal arts colleges. -Karen E. Osborne

Capitalizing on Communism's Fall BY BRIGITTE

M. ScHuLz

EASTERN EUROPE GRAPPLES WITH THE ECONOMIC IMPERATIVES OF FREE

herever one travels in this region, one is left with the powerful sense that overthrowing a dictatorship physically is only the beginning of a very slow and painful process. It is, in other words, the necessary but not sufficient precondition for building a system of participatory government and individual rights along with functioning administrative and economic structures. In the case of the various Eastern European countries on the Trinity itinerary, one also gets the sense of distinct cultural differences which are reemerging in this post-Communist era. The entire atmosphere in Prague, for example, was one of optimism and joy. The new government, comprised of Civic Forum representing the Czech and People Against Violence representing the Slovak part of the country, was elected on a broad mandate to bring about economic changes that were certain to drop living standards considerably in the near term. Thus, the people overwhelmingly voted in a government which promised to make everybody's physical existence more difficult in the short term to overcome the legacy of mismanagement and decay created by the old order. Such honesty during an electoral campaign in the United States would lead to certain defeat at the ballot box; it was indeed heartening to see their civic spirit and real commitment to change, even if that meant personal sacrifices for everyone in the Czech and Slovak Republic. Impressions in Poland went almost completely in the opposite direction. The attitude was more one of seeking help from abroad to make up for the hardships created by the changes instituted by the Solidarity government. Instead of the willingness to make sacrifices now for future rewards that we found in Prague, Polish thinking seemed to revolve around the themes of foreign responsibility for the Polish condition. Powerful images of having been wronged historically by the neighbors in both East and West were constantly invoked: Germany and Russia were Poland's eternal obstacles to peace and prosperity. If Poland were ever to tum into a prosperous country, we were told, the United States and France, as Poland's traditional "friends," would have to make substantial aid commitments as well as heavy private investments. Otherwise, said one Solidarity representative to the group, "there will be war." The mood in the Soviet Union was in many ways the most difficult to grasp during such a short visit. What is clear, however, is that many of the power relationships which have been clarified in Eastern Europe still are rather blurred in this huge country. The Communist Party is still in

charge officially, but the political and nationalist forces in the country seem to pull very much in the opposite direction. While we were in the Soviet Union, the Congress of the Communist Party was going on, and Boris Yeltsin as well as the mayors of Moscow and Leningrad resigned from the Party. The impression one gains in the country is one of disintegration, of power vacuums at all levels of society, of near anarchy. In this context Mikhail Gorbachev seems almost irrelevant, since he seeks to hold together a system which is in the process of disintegration. Economically, the situation also is much worse than what we experienced in Eastern Europe. In front of our hotels in Leningrad and Moscow young men were trying to sell anything from caviar to military insignia to us, and waitresses would produce various black market items from beneath their aprons for sale

right in the hotel's dining rooms. Nationalism is a force to be reckoned with not only in the Soviet Union but in all of Eastern Europe. Because so many nationality questions are unresolved in the Soviet Union, the problem seems to be keenest there. The country will not exist much longer in its present form. Poland, on the other hand, is at the other end of the spectrum: here we find a real commitment to the maintenance of existing borders. Nervous glances go west, in the direction of a newly united and enormously powerful Germany. Soviet troops in Poland are no longer vilified as "occupation forces" but are welcomed by the weary Polish population as guarantors of the existing border with Germany. Nationalist tensions are still subdued in the Czech and Slovak Republic but one wonders what will hap-

pen when the economic downturn actually has touched everyone's lives. Will the tolerance persist, or will the Czechs begin to blame the Slovaks, and vice versa? Hungarians are already in a state of extreme tension with Romania over the issue of Hungarians inside Romania. And they all hate the gypsies, from Berlin to Prague to Budapest. Stalinism certainly did not heal the wounds of historic national antagonisms in Eastern Europe; dictatorship merely stitched them together with an iron fist. Now that the fist is gone the wounds have reopened and healing as part of a democratic process will take a long time. That process itself is not well established yet. In the Soviet Union, democratic yearnings are still largely controlled by the Communist Party. What united the peoples of Eastern Europe, on the other hand, was their common hatred of the communist system. Now that the old communist parties are out of power in the countries we visited, ways have to be found to negotiate among competing interests. Political party systems, which will channel these interests into democratic patterns of behavior, are only in a nascent stage. The process was just underway in Poland during our visit, with the Solidarity movement breaking into two camps, one supporting Lech Walesa and the other the current prime minister, Tadeus Mazowiezki. In Hungary, various parties competed in the last national election, while the mood in Prague is still on maintaining a broad national consensus rather than allowing the political process to degenerate into party politics as usual. Everywhere, however, one gets the sense that democratic patterns

of behavior are still not well understood, that dictatorial modes of thinking continue to prevail even in the minds of those who successfully overthrew the old dictators. Government by consensus rather than diktat is clearly a much more difficult task and one that has not been mastered well anywhere in the world. In Eastern Europe, however, the structures for this process are also still underdeveloped. Even people of good will do not quite know how to move the political process into a democratic structure which allows for freedom and social justice at the same time. It is in the definition of social justice that the economic imperatives of the free enterprise system and the will of the people seem to diverge the most. While the lack of personal freedom and the inefficiency of the economy were a source of everlasting frustration to average Eastern Europeans, the cradle-to-grave social security guaranteed by the system to a large extent became "human rights" to them. The difficulty now facing post-communist governments is to maintain the social security structures established under the old order while creating free market structures which, hopefully, will increase the level of economic prosperity. This task becomes even more difficult since economic growth strategies are predicated upon finding foreign investors for much needed renovation of plants and equipment. As Polish workers have already learned, foreign investors are not keen on sinking money into an economy which does not control the demands of organized labor. Hungarian officials told us that they hope to attract foreign capital to increase agricultural production as well as to build chemical

plants to produce fertilizers, insecticides, and other products closely tied to modem agricultural production techniques. Hungary also hopes to build up its tourist trade. The assumption is, of course, that investment capital is abundant in the West and simply waiting for an opportunity to move into the Eastem European economies. So far, that hope has not materialized to a large extent. The economic policies of the new Eastern European governments thus seem almost predestined to fail to the extent that they bank on significant foreign capital investments. Closely tied to this is the urgent need in all of the countries we visited to privatize property, from government-owned housing complexes to banking, industry, etc. What should the government do, asked one highly placed Czech official, if it wants to get out of the role of landlord and the tenants refuse to buy the apartments they live in? Who should own and operate them? How do you prod people into private home-ownership if there are no mechanisms for taking out a mortgage, for taking out private insurance policies for homeownership or for liability? Why; furthermore, should anyone wish to buy his/her apartment if the current rent is so cheap that it is simply not worth it to "own" it via a mortgage? People simply have become accustomed to letting the bureaucrats run things rather than assuming individual responsibility. Finally, what strikes the visitor to this part of the world is the profound lack of know-how in all aspects of running a modem industrial society. Just as structures are still missing at the party/governmental level, efficient managerial and production techniques are completely absent in the economy. No-

body really knows how to calculate the true production costs of an item and thus how to charge the proper price for it in a store. These societies have few lawyers and no CPAs. Therefore, many of the professions which undergird (some cynics might even say undermine) our Western societies simply do not yet exist. Even with Western help it will take at least a generation to build up this type of foundation. This process will also require a radical restructuring of university curricula and the complete reeducation of the professors, principally those teaching in the field of economics. One leaves Eastern Europe with a sense of excitement and joy that Stalinist dictatorships everywhere have caved in to the genuine desire of people for a life of personal dignity and economic prosperity. On the other hand the attainment of these lofty goals is years, if not decades, away. What may transpire in the interim fills the visitor with as much fear as hope. History is surely unfolding in the lands east of the now defunct Oder-Neisse border, and one wishes and prays that this history will lead to prosperity and peace for all. As the Solidarity official reminded us during our visit to Poland, the alternatives indeed could be tragic. â&#x20AC;˘

SPORTS FALL WRAP-UP

Headlining the fall sports action at Trinity this fall were the surprising achievements of the field hockey squad. Trinity began the season with the modest goal of landing a playoff bid, and they made that hope a reality when they won eleven of fourteen contests and were seeded fifth in the Eastern College Athletic Conference Tournament. Led by goaltender Louise Van der Does, a Collegiate Field Hockey Coaches Association All-American First Team selection, Trinity defeated Smith (1-0) and Middlebury (3-1) before losing a 3-1 decision to Williams. The team finished the season with a 13-4 record and a new piece of hardware for the trophy case. On the gridiron, the Bantams secured the school's eleventh consecutive winning football season by defeating Amherst 44-14 and Wesleyan I0-9 to finish the year at 6-2. In a driving rainstorm at Wesleyan, Trinity strong safety Andrew Wilson knocked Wesleyan's signal caller, Dave D'Onofrio, out of bounds at the oneyard line on a two-point conversion attempt with 44 seconds left in the game to preserve the Bantams' victory. It marked the fourth consecutive victory over the Cardinals. At the baseline, the women's tennis team enjoyed a fine 8-3 season and earned a third place finish at the New England Tournament. Sophomores Bo Hewitt and Laura Hubbard, and freshman Stephanie Voros all reached the finals in their respective single titles at the Tournament. It was the first time that the team finished in the top three in New England since 1984. On the pitch, the men's soccer team posted a 6-6-2 record including an

impressive 2-0 victory over Amherst in front of a large Homecoming crowd. Ralph Fierro and Peter Alegi, the team ' s top scorers, notched a goal each and goaltender Jeff Ward made seven saves to record the shutout. Trinity had tough luck all season with the one-goalgames as each of the team's six losses were by a single goal. On the year, Trinity outscored its opponents 25- I 9. The women's soccer team put together a five-game winning streak as the I 989 E.C.A.C. Champions pushed towards a playoff bid, but the team's 73-2 record was not good enough to earn a berth in the post-season action. Trinity's biggest win of the year was a 2-0 overtime victory over Williams. Sally Thayer and Lea Macaro, who were both named to the E.C.A.C. AllNew England Second Team, scored in the first ten minutes of the extra session. In the gym, senior captain Grace Russell directed the volleyball team to a 15-11 record including a first-place finish at the Rhode Island College Tournament. In the Tournament, Trinity won four straight matches to capture the title, and Russell was named the Tournament's Most Valuable Player. The Bantams finished the season with a win and two losses at the NESCAC Invitational. On the footpaths, the women' s cross-country team enjoyed another successful season while the men's squad struggled. The men's team, slowed by injuries, posted its best finish in the team's first race of the season at Vassar in which the team placed third. Scott Mattoon was the team's top runner. The women ' s team, paced by sophomore Carrie Pike, captured firstplace finishes at the Vassar and R.P.l. Invitational and one second-place finish at the Amherst Invitational out of eight races. Neither team placed a runner in the top ten at the New England Meet.

Men 's Swimming The men ' s swimming team appears solid for the upcoming season in spite of fact that the team is once again small in numbers. Last year's crop of super freshmen will return as the core of the team. Luke McCarthy, holder of five Trinity College records, is primed for another successful outing. Breastroker Rob Lenois, backstroker Dave Lynch, and buttertlyer Jon Nusbaum had fine seasons last year and will be back to set

the pace for the Bantams. David Shapiro, who is a versatile breastroker and freestyle, once again will be a key performer for Head Coach Chet McPhee. Captain Frank Monaco, a premier sprinter, wiiJ handle the short freestyle events. Coach McPhee welcomes some top quality recruits to his program this season who should complement the core of varsity swimmers. Kristian Reich, a superb buttertlyer, leads the freshman recruits.

Women 's Swimming Captain Karen Leonard, who has been the top-point scorer since her freshman season, will return to again lead Trinity in the water. Head Coach Chet McPhee will have Leonard handle the freestyle sprints and the short butterfly. Chris Hewitt, a senior, will take care of the backstroke chores while sophomore Renee Mailloux, a middle-distance freestyler, will return after an outstanding freshman season. Veteran Ann Reutter had some strong individual performances last year, and she could be a pleasant surprise if she can recapture that form. The season may hinge on the freshman recruits. Kim Aquilar, Cristina Bonaco, Natascha Kontny, and Stephanie Cope are all strong swimmers who wil l be called upon to fill the gaps in the line-up.

Wrestling The squad ' s top wrestler this season is Adam Dunn. Dunn, a sophomore, competed at the 190-lb. weight class last season and placed sixth in the Division III Championships on his way to being named an All-New England Wrestler. Dunn, a linebacker on the football team, will move up to the heavyweight class this season. "I believe Adam will do even better this year," explains Head Coach Sebastian Amato. Freshmen will fill the lower weight classes for Trinity as David Bruno and Brian Burke are scheduled to compete for the 118-lb. weight class. Senior Colin Kisor, a two-year letterwinner, and sophomore Jeremy Burden will combine to form a tough tandem at the 134-lb. weight class. Junior Michael Taylor will compete at 142lbs.,while serving as a role model for freshman Michael Higgins. At 158

Senior Larry Trinceri, who recently passed the 100-point mark in his Trinity career, is the Bantams' top offensive weapon.

lbs. , Matthew Pietrafetta is a talented and enthusiastic wrestler. Junior Captain Jack Kirkpatrick, the team's most physical wrestler, will lead the team from the 167-lb. weight class. Sophomore Matt Pedersen, who wrestles at 177 lbs., is looking to establish himself as one of the top wrestlers in the league. "For the first time since I've been coaching here," explains Amato, "there will be experienced upper-class leadership to bring along the freshman."

Hockey After graduating the team 's top three scorers from last season, Head Coach Dunham is rebuilding his forward lines. Dunham is counting on the strong leadership and versatility of this season's senior captain, John Gregory, to fill the void left by graduation. Gregory, a former defenseman, will be moved into a regular spot at right wing along with senior Darin Steinberg. Center Larry Trinceri, a senior who has recorded 94 career points, should establish himself as the team's number

one offensive threat. At the left-wing position, junior Tom Scull is an excellent all-around player who has scored 19 goals over the last two years, and Eric McGranahan returns after contributing 31 points in his freshman season. The defensive end should be Trinity 's strength this season. In goal, junior Jeff Tuck emerged as the numberone-goaltender late in the season and played extremely well in the playoffs. Another junior, Rich Getzoff, is a reliable backup. On defense, junior Scott Leddy, a New England Sportswriters All-Star and an ECAC second-team selection, has the size, speed and offensive skills to be the top defenseman in the league. He is joined by veterans Steve Burgess, Tom Presz, John Snecinski, and Bill Grube, who are a talented group that give the Bantams excellent depth. On the outlook for his 1990-91 Bantams, Coach Dunham explains, "The team faces a very difficult early season and much of our success will depend on the improvement of our sophomores as well as how quickly our freshman can contribute."

Coach Ogrodnik is optimistic about his team 's chances of returning to the E.C.A.C. Tournament. "Attitude, physical and mental toughness," says Ogrodnik, "and our backcourt experience will have to carry us early in the season. I am more than a little excited by our incoming freshman class, and if we can generate some team chemistry early, we are capable of having an outstanding season."

Women 's Basketball The strength of this year's team will be its height with five players measuring in at 5' 10" or taller. Leading the way will be senior captain Kirsten Kolstad. Kolstad (5' 10") is a tough, physical player who dominates the

Men 's Basketball This season Head Coach Stan Ogrodnik will be trying to replace the nation' s leading rebounder, Michael Stubbs, who was lost to graduation. Stubbs is the only young man in Trinity history to score I ,000 points and grab 1,000 rebounds. On the positive side, Coach Ogrodnik has nine lettermen returning from last year's E.C.A.C. Tournament team. Co-Captains Joe Reilly (6'0") and Chris Hinchey (5' II") will be in charge of the squad from the guard positions. Reilly, who averaged 16 points a game last season, should become the latest member of the 1,000 club as he enters this season with 818 career points. Hinchey adds quickness and defense to the veteran backcourt. Long-rangebomber Mike Allen (5' 11 ")and the tenacious Dennis McCoy (6'2") will add depth to the backcourt. Two-year starter Matt Vaughn (6'2") will be joined by sophomores Mark O'Day (6'6"), Pieter Vanderheide (6'8"), and Doug Rausch (6'8"). These four players will shoulder the front court responsibility that was Stubbs' duty for the last four years.

Captain Kirsten Kolstad, the team's only senior, will pace the Bantams with excellent shooting and rebounding.

" =============t offensive and defensive boards. The other board-crashers for the Bantams will be junior Amy Chiodo (6'0") and Jackie Kupa (5 ' 11"). Chiodo set a school record last season for blocked shots in a season with 35. Point guard Kathy Moynagh (5 '5") will be responsible for feeding the Bantams ' imposing front line. Moynagh is an excellent ball handler who can drive to the basket. The other starting guard position is up for grabs and Coach MaureenPine expects the competition to be fierce. Veterans Maureen Strickland (5'7''), Lisa O'Connell (5'7'') and Jodi Falcigno (5'4") all have experience but face a battle from the incoming freshmen. Coach Pine believes her players are ready for this season. "Our players know what it takes to win at the college level," says Pine, "and they are anxious to make good things happen this season."

Men 's Squash New Head Coach John Anz will inherit five of the team 's six top players from last year's 9-7 squad which finished eighth in the country en route to capturing the Edward G. "Red" Hoehn Trophy. Justin McCarthy, Rick Campbell and Mark Lewis played the squad 's top three ladder positions respectively last season. McCarthy, a sophomore, will be a key player for Trinity this season. Senior Captain Rick Campbell is a very talented player who has the skills to rival McCarthy at number one. Junior Mark Lewis, who plays attack on the lacrosse team in the spring, is an excellent athlete. The majority of the middle ladder positions will be filled by the strong sophomore class. Cameron Hopkins, Chris O'Brien, Chris Hart, and Blair Keller all gained valuable varsity exposure last season in their rookie seasons. The team's adjustment to a new coach should be eased by the familiarity that Anz has with the Trinity program. After their successful postseason action last season, the Bantams are eager to make a return trip to the team championships.

Over his career, Hamel taped thousands of ankles, spent hundreds of cold nights at hockey practice, and endured endless Sundays in the training room with inj ured Trinity athletes. Hamel's impact upon the athletic program is impossible to quantify, but it is safe to say that when a game was on the line, Hamel was there to insure that Trinity's athletes were fit to compete.

Capen Award Caps Successful Year for Hartford When National Alumni Association President Dave Raymond ' 63 made the presentation of the George Capen Award to Trinity Club of Hartford President Roger Derderian '67 at October's Leadership Conference, the moment signalled a summit and a culmination for the Club. Receiving the Award, presented annually to the area alumni club that has most effectively fulfilled its function during the preceding College year, achieved the Club 's goal ofbeing recognized as themost active in the country. "'When David began his presentation of the Award , l was amazed that one club could have so many events in one year," said a surprised Derderian. "But, when he mentioned the summer carillon concert, l knew he could only be talking about us." lndeed, the Trinity Club of Hartford sponsored an unparalleled 16 events during the 1989-90 year, including an annual dinner, winter reception, young alumni events, boat cruise along the Connecticut River, the annual Buttondown Sounds Scholarship Fundraiser Concert, several downtown luncheons with guest speakers, and a summertime Carillon Concert Cookout for alumni, friends, and incoming area freshmen. Such a full schedule could not be achieved without the efficiency and enthusiasm of the executive committee. Led by Derderian, the executive committee members include Executive Vice President (and current President-elect) Marion Hardy '84, Vice President for Admissions Kathleen O ' Connor Boelhouwer '85 , Treasurer Alan Mandell ' 61 and committee members Michael Masius '63, Claire Joyce '86, Ernest Mattei ' 70, Mary Clare Mooney '85, Joseph Reid '86, H.

Area Association Activities continued Boelhouwer received the Club's approval to accept as new members of the executive committee Michael Gary '86, Lyn ne Johnson Pease '80, and Harold A. Smullen, Jr. '76, while Clifford presented the Trinity Club of Hartford Person of the Year Award to the Rev. Bill Eakins '66 for his remarkable service to both Trinity and the City of Hartford. It should be noted that two of the three clubs hosting receptions for the President this fall, New Haven and Providence, are new clubs, rejuvenated by infusions of volunteer leadership and spirited alumni participation. Both New Haven and Providence are currently planning additional events, including sporting and cultural evenings, and admissions receptions. The alumni office salutes these efforts and 42

enthusiastically supports them! Another newly-rejuvenated club is New York City. New Club officers President Scott Cassie '82 and Vice President for Admissions Peter Schaefer '89 organized a "Welcome to New York City Champagne Reception" for young alumni and guests on Nov. 18. Hosted by And rea Scully Keough '82 and Alex Boyle '85, the Club hosted more than 50 recent graduates in a tour of the fine art exhibit at the Godel & Company Gallery on 76th Street, providing a chance for friends and classmates to get reacquainted. Alumni reported a wonderful evening and are looking forward to the next New York event. While the young alumni of New York saw fit to enrich their lives and their reception with art from the Hudson River Collection, the young alumni of Boston put on their dancing shoes and tripped the light fantastic in a gala holiday affair at the Roxy Club on Nov. 30.

until 8:30, when the doors were opened to the public for a fast-paced evening of dancing. One of the evening's highlights occulTed when event organizer, Lisa Cadette '87, surprised classmate Pam Ingersoll '87 with a giant chocolate birthday cake and a resounding chorus of "Happy Birthday! " Boston holds claim to yet another success. Recently , a group of local volunteers won a phonathon competition that pitted them against an aggressive and talented corps in Philadelphia, Pa. Organized by Constance French, assistant director of annual and special gifts, each city held phonathons in its area, vying to enlist the most callers and rai se the most dollars. While Boston takes the prize in raising $500 more than the City of Brotherly Love, they shouldn't rest too easi ly on their laurels. Although Philadelphia alumna Pam Von Seldeneck '85 is not demanding a disqualification for Boston, she reports that Boston made phone calls for a full 45 minutes longer than Philadelphia and is definitely looking forward to a rematch! In addition to some fine phonathon efforts, Philadelphia continues to provide its local alumni with a variety

of cultural events. Club President Peter Halper t '80 organized a night at the theater, inviting 20 alumni and guests to a showing of "Love Letters" with Eli Wallach and Anne Jackson. Described by Time magazine as "one of the best American plays of the decade," thi s play was also performed at Trinity 's Austin Arts Center this past Parents' Weekend. The Trinity Club of Chicago has also led an active fall season. Kicking off the annual program of events was a cocktail reception organized by Club President Dede Seeber Boyd '81, attended by alumni, parents, and friends at the University Club on Nov. 16. The Club has also recently held a series of elections for officer positions , bringing to the organization new energy and a wealth of ideas. While Peter Bartol '62 will remain treasurer, Patrice Ball-Reed ' 80 will take the helm as president; John Lee '87 assumes the duties of vice president for admissions, with the support of Jane Melvin Mattoon '84.

write and submit news of themselves, thoughts or opinions which might be of interest to others of 1927? Surely, everyone is delighted with the "Operation Desert Shield" situation and the prospect of no problems with the oil supply. Certainly we are all pleased with the way the administration and Congress are solving the deficit, budget and tax questions in complete harmony. The recent activity in the stock market must have brought happy smiles to the faces of traders, investors and even those with but one or three shares - all pleased with the trend. With all these goodies, Jet's not forget the Boston Red Sox fans who have that wonderful feeling about the Club's performance with Oakland, to say nothing about being happy with Roger Clemens valedictory! So why should one be depressed and frustrated?

Last Sunday evening I had a phone from California. It was HERB NOBLE telling me that his new address is 1015 Madden Ln., Roseville, Calif. 95661. His telephone number is (916) 773-6374. He and his wife decided it was time to get closer to the rest of the family. Should any of you be out that way, I'm sure Herb would be happy to hear from you. Also had notice that as of Aug. 1, JIM and Betty BURR moved to 621 Lakeside Dr., S.E., Apt. B, Grand Rapids, Mich. 49506. Their telephone number is (616) 774-2481. ~

Julius Smith, D.M.D. 142 Mohawk Dr. West Hartford, Conn. 06117 Little news to report on this October of 1990. The fall weather has been beautiful in New England and augurs well for the November Trinity Homecoming. HUGH CAMPBELL and YOUR SECRETARY were on a committee to celebrate the 62nd reunion of Hartford High School's Class of 1928. And in two years the Trinity Class of '32 will have our 60th. Stay well and send in any news you have. We recently visited with LOU ROLNICK '28 and DR. AARON BOBROW '30, with much discussion of fond memories under the Elms.

Charles A. Tucker, M.D. 7 Wintergreen Ln. West Hartford, Conn. 06117 This is a year for many of our classmates and their spouses to celebrate their half-century wedding anniversaries. This has been accomplished by a combination of luck and good genes. GRAHAM and Katie DAY celebrated their 50th on May 4 at the Kenwood Country Club in the company of 82 relatives and friends. They had such a good time that they are already planning their 75th. They are heading for Honolulu in October for a meeting of The Former Special Agents of the FBI. Others in our Class worthy of mention are as follows : HOFF and Joan BENJAMIN, married June 22 , 1940; ELLIOTT and Cindy MAYO, married July 2, 1940; JOHN and Genevieve KELLY, married Aug. 21, 1940; GUS and Irene UHLIG, married Oct. 4, 1940; and CHARLIE and Ruth TUCKER, married Dec. 21 , 1940. If I have omitted anyone, please let me know. I would like to hear from any of you in '34 who have been married for a longer period of time. I know that there must be several. Class Agent: John E.

So, I finally have read a book written by Dolph Hoehling, the last of his writing career, according to Dolph: Damn the Torpedoes. After reading about some of the usually-not-mentioned incidents of the Civil War, one has to wonder- or, rather- to hope, that the management of the crisis in the Persian Gulf is not anywhere near as inept as was the management of the Civil War effort by the Federal government, or, indeed, both sides. A very interesting book. At this writing, quite near my deadline for the winter Reporter, I have not received any response to my request for comments re our need for Class officers to present to the 55th Reunion next June. That request was included in the fall issue about to come out. (It will be in your hands before this issue goes to press.) A most interesting note from BOB McKEE via JACK HANNA. At our age, Bob has just moved his industrial real estate brokerage to larger offices in Pasadena, and is thinking of retiring in 1994. Wants to go to the 50th anniversary of the Omaha Beach landings where he skippered the LCT549. Since his heart attack in 1977, he has been walking and jogging daily. Has a lens in>plant in one eye and expects to have another soon. Bob, whose Jove for music was evident while we were at Trin, this spring composed and heard a public performance of his first musical composition in 50 years. He is at work on another. He had planned a cruise in August from Nassau, touching Atlantic ports and ending up in N.Y. City. Perhaps some of you have heard from him while he was in the East. Now, there is a man of action.

There was a wonderful article in 17te Hariford Courant about LOU STEIN

and his tennis prowess, which I sent to Jack Hanna. Jack's comment will be of interest, not only to Lou: "Lou looks handsome, vital, graceful, and in command." HARRY DAVIS writes that he, too, takes medication for his heart and that his cardiologist has given him simple instructions: Don't push, pull, or lift. Harry says: What's left? Dr. Harry has had back problems for years, but finally found a surgeon who agreed with him about his trouble and has had surgery and has recovered wonderfully. More about Harry later. Don't forget June 1991. Class Agent: Dr. John G. Hanna Michael J. Scenti 226Amherst Wethersfield, Conn. 06109 Billie and JOHN BANKS celebrated their golden wedding anniversary at a reception and tea dance planned by their three children and held in the Carolina Inn in Chapel Hill, N.C. on Aug. 5. A ride in the rumble seat of a 1930 Chevy concluded the party. Six grandchildren cavorted through the festivities and also e(\joyed the fanilly's week at Topsail Beach preceding the celebration. A three-week tour of England and Scotland followed, with John preaching in the 500-year-old church of his ancestors in the far northern county of Caithness. He keeps busy in Chapel Hill as a volunteer in patient education at North Carolina Memorial Hospital, on church committees, and as a gardener and golfer. He has presently embarked on a write-up of memoirs and is now in the midst of college years. He can't believe how much centers around choir, glee club, chapel, and prexy (Dr. Ogilby)! In July, BILL McCARTHY of Vero Beach, Fla. attended an Elderhostel at the Simpsonwood Conference Center near Atlanta. When the roster of attendees was received, he found that BILL HULL would also be there. McCarthy and his wife, Angie, and Bill and Ruth e(\joyed the Elderhostel program in which they learned about the history of the City of Atlanta. Also, the Hulls piled up points against the McCarthys in games of bridge. The McCarthys were then heading for Ohio to visit their children. HOWARD (Bucky) GALE has notified me of the death of DR. IRVING FIEN (see I n Memory) of Alamo, Calif. 1rv was killed in an auto accident Monday, Sept. 17, near his home. Bucky and Edith had planned a two-week vacation with 1rv and Ana They were met at about 9 p.m. at Oakland Airport by Ana, who informed them that 1rv had died about four hours earlier. Their plans were cancelled, but they stayed on with Ana to help her through her ordeal. They returned home to St. Augustine, Fla. on Oct. 2. We express our deepest sympathies to the Fien fanilly. I was also informed of the death of Dr. Fien by COLONEL JOE GRECO, who had been notified by Bucky Gale. Joe, Bucky and 1rv had been friends for 63 years. Joe has sent a donation to the

Alunmi Fund in memory of Dr. Fien. Class Agent: William G. Hull Walter E. Borin 30 Ivy Ln. Wethersfield, Conn. 06109 As this is being written, we are looking forward to Homecoming in two weeks. AL and Jean HOPKINS are committed to attending a five-day hospital conference and seminar in Monterey, Calif. at Estes Park Institute aimed at better quality medicine at a lower price. AI is a trustee representing St. Clare's-Riverside Medical Center in New Jersey. They expect to return just in time to make the Saturday Homecoming luncheon. BOB PYE (without question our best communicator) reports that WALTER and Betty FAY stopped to visit him and his wife, Dot, on their way to Canada last June, and expressed the regrets of all for not having been able to attend the Reunion. It was their first meeting since 1940. Bob is coping as best he can with the after effects of a stroke. DICK MORRIS reports that our late BILL WOLF's novel about the life of Benedict Arnold has been published, and he wants to see it reviewed in the Reporter some day. (Editor's note: See Books by Trinity Autlwrs in this issue.) Dick is doing better with his new brace, but is reconciled to less function than preceded his last mishap. He also wants everyone to know that he uses the walking stick AI Hopkins presented him at Reunion and shows it proudly at every opportunity. Long before this appears in print the Class Reunion booklet containing individual profiles and much more should be in all hands. YOUR SECRETARY wishes to thank everyone for the many kind words said about the Reunion and for the expressions of sympathy given me. Class Agent: Stephen M. Riley, Esq.

Frank A. Kelly, Jr. 21 Forest Dr. REUNION Newington, Conn. 06111 TED RYDER has attained a distinction not shared by any other Class member (or, I suspect, by any other Trinity alumnus) in having a children's coloring book named after him. The new book, called "Teddy Ryder Rides Again," is a 22-page booklet which explains in simple terms what diabetes is, how it is treated and how young diabetics can participate in childhood activities. In the coloring book, which will be distributed nationally by the American Diabetes Association, Teddy Ryder is the name of a bear with diabetes. The president of the Association said that "we are proud that Ted lent his name to the book and is willing to participate in the project." This is Ted's 68th year on insulin, which he has been taking longer than anyone else still alive. He is the only survivor of the first group of children to be given the treatment by Dr. Banting, who won a Nobel Prize for isolating insulin.

17te New York Ti-mes, in September, printed a letter from New Jersey State Senator JOHN H. EWING expressing his unhappiness with the policies of Governor Florio. A note following the letter gives the information that Jack is ranking Republican member of the New Jersey Senate Finance Committee. YOUR SECRETARY attended the annual Cape Cod Trinity clambake in search of news for this colunm, but no other classmates showed up, even JOE RUSSO who has traditionally been a good source of news. We should mark our calendars with the dates of our 50th Reunion get-together, which will be held June 13- 16, 1991. A report from DICK BARNES in the Aetna retirees' magazine, in addition to revealing that Dick will be 70 on Nov. 16 and golfs two or three times a week, states that he and his wife hope to make it to Hartford to attend our gathering. Way to go, Dick! Class Agent & Reunion Gift Chair: Donald J. Day Reunion Chair: Louis E. Buck

John R. Barber 4316 Chambers Lake Dr. Lacey, VVash. 98503 My "cold canvass" phone calls to classmates sometimes yield depressing news better left out of this colunm. So, while leaving the inevitable necrology reporting to Director of Alumni and College Relations JERRY HANSEN '51, YOUR REPORTER will include any disability reports along with upbeat stuff. Is losing friends, even those not seen for half a century, not perhaps a payment for the privilege of growing old? DR. ROBERT WHITSITT, eminent retired educator in Amenia, N.Y. continues to e(\joy his creative hobbies of watercolor painting and music. Bob recalls the set of caricatures he once drew of the then Trinity faculty that were naturals for our yearbook. Unfortunately their realism was more than some of the subj ects could accept. In those days, authoritarians such as Professors Notopoulos and Costello could overrule youthful editors. But how about publishing these for our 50th in 1992, Bob? DR. MICHAEL ZACCARRIA, a resident of San Antonio since 1950, is still livening up that already exciting city. His latest efforts involve development of an entertainment complex downtown along the river - which already is a magnet for tourists and a great place to visit. On your next WW2 reunion there, he'd be a good classmate to look up. OLCOTT COLTON could use some cheering up, having lost his wife, Loretta, and now reported convalescing from a stroke at St. Joseph's Manor, Trumbull, Conn. I've e(\joyed seeing Ollie, a most pl~asant and outgoing fellow, as a regular attendee at Trinity class reunions. I know he'd like to hear from you. THE REV. GUSTAVE PETERSON was about to be ordained in his new ministerial calling at the U.C.C. church in South Hadley, Mass. on Oct. 14, 1990 - the day.after I phoned him. The

Headliner Col. Edmund C . Morrisey, Jr. '52, retired commander of the !.G. Brown Air National Guard Professional Military Ed ucation Center in Knoxville, Tenn., was awarded the O rder of the Sword last spring . He was honored for his dynamic leadership and compassion for the enlisted corp while serving as the first commander of the Center. Morrisey was commander there from 1968 to 1983, and retired in 1984. Previous recipients of the award, which is the highest tribute that non- commissioned officers can bestow on an individual, have included General

amazing Reverend Gus, armed with a newly-earned MA. in religion, will be devoting professional time to the Puerto Rican community in the local Holyoke urban area, on top of other pastoral duties. In his third career (20 years in advertising, another 20 publishing a community newspaper), Gus has recovered beautifully from heart bypass surgery in late '89. Looks as if the Lord has picked another winner from the unsinkable Class of '42. Visiting the Petersons last summer from Seguin, Texas were THE REV. and Mrs. JOHN PAYNE, JR. Officially retired, this former rector puts his master's degree in clinical psychology to good use in the social fields. Jack and Ruth have been escaping east Texas summers in breezy Point Judith, R.I. CHARLES JOHNSON, Class Agent, reports: ''The Class raised $13,474 for the 1989-90 Alumni Fund, $1 ,474 over our goal. We ranked fourth in participation, with 66 percent." Congratulations to all! - and now Jet's build up both categories as we approach our FlFI'IETH. Charlie adds: "With our consorts, DICK PADDON and I spent a colorful fall weekend with MATT BIRMINGHAM at his Vermont farm. One neighbor, a bearded Russki named A. Solzhenitsyn, writes now and again." Classmates, please emulate the above and Jet me have some unsolicited news for next time's Reporter. Class Agent: Charles F. Johnson II John L. Donee, Es q.

Elliott K. Ste in 215 Gibbs Ave. Newport, R.I. 02840 Class Agent RICHARD HASTINGS was host for a lunch meeting at the Farmington Country Club with fellow Class of 1944 co-agents JOHN FINK and ELLIOTT STEIN, and our newest assistant director of annual giving, Llyn Kaimowitz. The end-of-summer session was to plan for the 1990- 91 annual campaign. Our Class did extremely well during the 1989-90 drive, attaining nearly 55 percent participation. Forty-two of the 77 remaining Class members contributed during the past year. We're hoping for "44 from '44" for the 1990-91 annual campaign, whlch would come out to 57 percent participation. Your secretary and his wife, Josephine, saw Class Photographer DR. ARTHUR CHAMBERS and his wife, Irene, at the annual Elms Fair in Newport. Arthur spent much of his younger years in nearby Middletown and returns annually to the Rhode Island area for various summer activities. Speaking of old times, your secretary and his wife have just returned from our own Grand Tour. We met old Army Company buddies at our annual reunion in Greer's Ferry, Ark., and continued on to Springfield, Mo., for the

84th Division reunion. From there, we drove to Memphis to visit another buddy (the company first sergeant), and we stopped there to see Elvis Presley's Graceland. After that, we traveled to Nashville for a get-together with fellow Lions at a U.S.-Canada Forum. Naturally, we also took in an evening at the Grand Ole Opry at whlch the King of Country Music, Roy Acuff, starred. Then we flew to Atlanta to meet another old Army buddy. Let me tell you, Atlanta is going wild over being chosen to host the 1994 Olympics. Speaking of reunions, it's not too early to start thinking of our own Class of '44 Reunion in 1994. Remember, guys, the 50th comes only once. Those of you who were here for the 40th and 45th will attest to the great time we had then. The 50th should be still better. I'd Jove to include more in this report, but unless I hear more from you, I can't. I know many (if not most) of you are taking time off to smell the roses. Let me hear of your doings on a postcard or a letter. Tell me about your own kids, grandkids, etc. We love you all and want to hear from you. Class Age nts: John T. Fink Walte r H. Ghe nt Richard C.

VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT

Joslin Heads Global Entertainment Empire at Hearst framed notice of seven 1990 Emmy Award

A nominations, several cable television network posters and original cartoon illustrations on the walls in the reception area make it evident to all who enter that this is no run-of-the-mill executive suite. Those decorating touches reflect the work of the occupant- Raymond E . Joslin '58. He heads The Hearst Corporation 's vast Entertainment & Syndication Group. Also a vice-president and a director of The Hearst Corporation, Joslin has had more than 25 years of experience in the cable television and m edia industries. The magazine, Channels, recently selected him as "one of the people to watch in 1991., When it comes to this self-described corporate entrepreneur, there's plenty to keep an eye on. Out of the 12 companies in the Entertainment & Syndication Group, only one existed a decade ago when Joslin came on board to develop these businesses for The Hearst Corporation, then under the name of the Hearst Cable Communications Group. The Entertainment & Syndication Group was formed in 1989. The move combined H earst's cable communications businesses with its entertainment, world-wide film and cartoon distribution, comics and features syndication and licensing companies, and electronic publishing companies. Now, Joslin's activities range from traveling to the Soviet Union to develop private enterprise deals to overseeing King Features Syndicate - the largest international sy,ndicator and licensor of75 comic characters including POPEYE, BLONDIE, BEETLE BAILEY and HAGAR. "We've licensed Blondie to Disney and expect they 'll release a musical by next Christmas, " he noted . King Features has also licensed THE PHANTOM and MANDRAKE THE MAGICIAN for production of theatrical movies . Interestingly, at the age of 11 on a Springfield, Mass . radio station , Joslin played the kids ' and women's voices, before his own voice changed, reading the Sunday comics including BLONDIE and other King Feature characters. "Alii can say, " says Joslin, "is that 43 years later, I am still trying to animate the same comics." Joslin also co-founded and is co-

RAY JOSLIN '58 cites his liberal arts education as an important influence in his life_

chairman of the boards of the Arts & Entertainment Network and LIFETIME TELEVISION. A&E is a joint venture among The Hearst Corporation, Capital Cities/ ABC, Inc. and NBC. It has received numerous accolades for its documentary drama, comedy and performing arts programming to more than 47 million homes nationwide. LIFETIME, of which Hearst is a partial owner, is a cable television entertainment and information network for women which is seen in over 50 million homes nationally .

Another unit under Joslin's purview is Hearst Entertainment Productions, Inc., a major producer of made-fortelevision movies and mini-series. In 1990, HEP delivered 11 movies to the major networks including "Jekyll and Hyde" starring Michael Caine, "Challenger" with Karen Allen and Barry Bostwick, and " Brewster Place," the series starring Oprah Winfrey. The company received three Emmy Awards in 1990 including one for Barbara Hershey's performance in "Killing in a Small Town." Joslin is also a member of the board of directors of the world's largest sports network, ESPN, a joint venture between Hearst and Capital Cities/ ABC. He is a co- chairman of the boards of Hearst Cable News, Inc., a company formed to manage Hearst's interest in the newly-announced N ew England Cable News Network, and of Hearst/ ABC News, a producer of news inserts for the cable television network industry. Looking back at the record ofJoslin's days at Trinity, it's easy to trace the extra-curricular activities in which his career path had roots . An economics major, he did WRTC's play-byplay for football games . He also hosted the "All Night Dance Party ," a weekend radio program popular with teens all over the state who called in to request songs by Chubby Checker, Chuck Berry and Eddie Fisher. "That's before WRTC became a closed circuit station," he explained . "John

Palshaw and Phil Ives, the student station managers, used to look the other way when engineer Sam Stone would crank up the transmitter and we could be heard as far away as Springfield ." Joslin sang in the choir, was a member of the fencing team and Inter-Fraternity Council and was elected to the Student Senate. In his senior year, he was 'president of Delta Phi Fraternity. Soon after graduating and a short stint as a salesman for Jones & Laughlin Steel Corporation, Joslin launched his career in cable television. He assisted in the formation and development of Continental Cablevision, Inc. , now the third largest cable television company in the country with over three million subscribers. "I spent the first 15 years of my career as an entrepreneur in the cable television business . Having done that, I was fascinated by the then-new programming side of the cable business," Joslin said. "I really enjoy putting new ideas together with good people, and then sticking with the ideas and the people ... It's very rewarding. " Joslin described his November trip to Moscow, providing a behind-thescenes peek at his work. Met with flashing cameras and V.I. P. treatment at the airport, he was treated to an evening sleigh ride through Gorky Park . He sat in on a closed session of the Soviet Parliament during an important political speech by President Boris N . Y eltsin of the Russian Republic. And , in a ceremonial start to the first-ever game of American-style football between two Soviet teams, he kicked the first football in Red Army Stadium before 3,000 curious onlookers. Joslin's series or'meetings with a pro-private enterprise group that has "the right kind of political and financial support" were quite productive, he reported. "The population of Moscow is nine million and there are 160 million people in the Russian Republic. It's a huge marketplace and there are some interesting television opportunities - if the present political and economic problems are stabilized. "My task was to do two things and to keep them simple. Given the problems presently facing The Soviet Union, I believe it's best to pursue very simple projects so that cultural differences and bureaucracies don't get in the way. A simple project has the chance to get done quicker and people feel more comfortable as a result then you can move on to something more complex ."

First, he began negotiations for a simple exchange of 100 hours of American cartoons for 100 hours of Soviet historical documentaries. "Both can be easily dubbed into the other language. The cartoons are non-political and lighthearted - and the Soviet population needs something lighthearted at this moment in their history," he said. "And, our experience with A&E has shown us that the American public enjoys historical documentaries and would be fascinated with unedited Soviet television and KGB-produced documentaries. " The second aspect of his European/ Soviet Union visit entailed preliminary discussion about the development of a Soviet sports network which would broadcast athletic events to Europe and perhaps to the United States. Growing up in Rhode Island, a future in the global television and entertainment industry was far from what Joslin had in mind . However, he did have a Saturday morning radio show, "Teen Topics," on WICE in Providence. As a high school senior, he P.layed Georg,? in Thornton Wilder's Our Town. An acolyte to the bishop of Rhode Island, he intended to become an Episcopal priest - until the bishop advised him that the world could benefit from "more people without round white collars capable and independent enough to make positive changes in the world ." Another clergyman in Joslin's home state told him about Trinity and he became the first member of his family to attend college. Scholarships and hard work during the summers helped make it possible. "I used to make over $3,000 in the summer as a milkman on Cape Cod," he recalled. "This money allowed me the opportunity to attend Trinity and participate fully in campus life. "My years at Trinity are the most important in my life and the two persons who were most positively influential during these years were Joe Clark, dean of students, and John Candelet, professor of economics," Joslin added. "For their support and confidence, I shall always be grateful. "I am a staunch advocate of a liberal arts education because it creates options and options are the key to independence ."

YOUR SECRETARY looks forward to teaching in this year's Alumni College in Rome from June 17- 29, 1991. I hope to see some classmates there and at future Alumni Colleges back in Hartford. PETER LOWENSTEIN has joined the law firm of O'Connor, Paine, Morris & Jones in Greenwich, Conn. as a partner. He will be in charge of the firm's business and corporate practice group. Peter left his position as vice president, general counsel and secretary of Service America Corporation of Stamford to assume this position. MICHAEL ZOOB continues as vice president of Elderhostel with offices in Boston. Elderhostel now has approximately 200,000 enrollments each year in its domestic programs, and over 20,000 in its foreign programs. Trinity hosts three one-week programs in Hartford each summer and administers all the Elderhostel programs in Italy. The latter now take place at 10 sites, from Sicily to Lake Garda in northern Italy, with nearly 3,000 annual enrollments. Mike currently serves as an alumni trustee of the College.

His telephone numbers are: home - (415) 841-0829, office (415) 42S-3276. During the past year he has been on educational sabbatical and was a student at U.C. Berkeley, earning a master's in public health in the School of Public Health (division of maternal- child health). His theses were "Foster Parents of Infants Needing Special Care and Developmental Follow-up." He is working as a neonatologist at Children's Hospital Oakland and Berkeley. Jim recently visited his Trinity graduate son, STEVEN '89, who is a mechanical engineer in Hartford doing free-lance design work, and Jim traveled to Germany with his son, Andy, a junior at Amherst in history, doing language work at the Goethe Institute in Murmau this summer.

Richard W. Stockton 121 Whittredge Rd. Summit, N.J. 07901 YOUR FRIENDLY NEW SECRETARY has just realized that this Class notes business poses a logistical problem that he wants to share with each of you. First of all, as this is being written (October) the fall Trinity Reporter has yet to be distributed. Hopefully, in reading our fall Class notes, you will be encouraged to respond and stay in touch. Your secretary likes to write about you, but needs the communication. Put a string around your finger and a note on your mirror to share words of personal and professional wisdom, joy and sadness (hopefully little on the sadness issue) as often and as completely as you can. Your secretary received two letters from JOHN RUTLEDGE since our last Reporter. In the first letter, John indicated that he has changed his address from the snappy Upper East Side in Manhattan to the conceivably more civilized Beacon Hill district in Boston. John's new address is as follows: John L. Rutledge, 82 Pinckney St., Boston, Mass. 02114. With his address change comes a new job. John is now vice president of research at Loomis Sayles & Company specializing in computer hardware and semiconductor businesses. . .. And his good news continues. In John's second letter, he advises us that he and his bride, Barbara, were blessed with a new daughter, Madeleine Uu, on Aug. 22 (see Births). She weighed in at a trim 6.0 lbs. and has already been outfitted in her first set of Trinity diapers. Let's see, that sounds like Class of '12 . . . don't even think about it!!! The Williams football game is now a piece of sad history, but yours truly and wife, Barbara, tailgated at Trinity and entertained son, Rick (Class of '91), and about 75 close friends prior to and at half-time during the game. While there, we saw ED and Carol C!MILLUCA, BOB and Faith JOHNSON, and RAY and Roberta BEECH. There must have been other '60ers there, but we were having a hard time getting away from our party. The day was perfect and it looked like Trinity was going to pull it off, but alas, the boys from Billville continued their streak - the longest in the nation - with a victory in the last two minutes of play. Wait until next year. As I said at the outset, kindly bring to the frontal portion of your able brain, the need to communicate. It's much more fun that way. Class Agents: John D.

No news is delinitely NOT good news. After the glut of info passed along in the last Reporter, nary a word. The only conclusion to be drawn is that everybody's harboring energy for the upcoming 30th Reunion. (How time flies when you're getting senile. It seems only a couple of years ago that we had our 25th.) GEORGE LYNCH, PETER KREISEL and YOUR HUMBLE SCRffiE represented the Class at a Reunion seminar at Trinity during the fall, and can assure you of plenty of timely informa路 tion about the big June get-together. Til then: ef\ioy, and keep in touch. Late-breaking news sent in by MICHAEL SIENKIEWICZ '60 to the alumni office: KEN CROMWELL has moved to 4970 Burch Creek Dr., Ogden, Vt. 84403. "Ken qualified for the U.S. Seniors Professional Open this weekend and was two strokes behind Arnold Palmer. (Neither made the cut, but that reads better.)" Class Agent & Reunion Gift Chair: Peter H. Kreisel Reuni on Chai 1'S: George P. Lynch Kerry P. Fitzpatrick Bill Kirtz The Rev. Arthur F . "Skip" McNulty Calvary Church 315 Shady Ave. Pittsburgh, Pa. 15206 We heard from GUY ANDERSON that he now has a new job. He is vice president for ml\jor accounts at Shared Financial Systems in Dallas, Texas. There was a front page article in the Montclair 'J'i.mes about WILLIAM H. TURNER. Not only is he the councilman for Montclair's first ward, but he was recently promoted to vice chairman and director of Chemical Bank in New York. Bill oversees regional banking activities, which means that he oversees over 130 offices in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. Bill and his wife, Judy, have two sons: Chris, who is in graduate school at U.Va., and Andrew, who is a senior at Trinity College. Congratulations to both Guy and Bill on their respective promotions!

G. Alexander Creighton 117 Lincoln Rd. Lincoln, Mass. 01773 Congratulations to LLOYD REYNOLDS who remembered my voice mail number and spent all its memory loading about 45 minutes of monologue about where he has been for the last five years. He and wife, Nancy, have just moved back to Haverford, Pa. into a townhome next door to the Merion

Cricket Club. "You're invited to tennis," said Uoyd after having spent five cold winters in Prout's Neck, Maine on a fogging expedition. Besides his own business, Uoyd reports that he is also consulting with Sedgwick James, as director of executive financial services. Nancy is a fashion designer and should be most happy to be less than two hours to fashion city New York vs. the many from Maine. Welcome back to civilization, Lloyd and Nancy. RICHARD KROLL is now a full professor and chair of the department of geology and meteorology at Kean Col路 lege of New Jersey. Richard reports that he and wife, Cathy, retreat summers to their place in the Adirondacks where "one can feel secure sitting on billion-year-old rocks rather than the relatively youthful 180 million-year-old rocks in New Jersey." Aside from his teaching and research, Richard keeps busy writing field guide books and leading, as its president, the Geological Association of New Jersey in its annual conference. This year Richard is leading the group to Lafayette College which is closest to the rocks " .. . for those field trips associated with the meetings. For those interested, the topic for the seventh annual conference of this Association deals with "aspects of groundwater in New J ersey." SAM WINNER reports from his home in Del Mar that he and wife, Julie, have just renovated their A-frame guest house and will be living in that with son, Austin, and nanny, while the main casa is being blown up into a two-story version of itself. So don't plan on visiting them for the next six months unless you have your tent and snake repellent for their back yard or can afford to stay in La Jolla. Sam's general surgery work continues with his being senior person in a four-doctor team at Scripps which is now part of an $800 million consortium of hospitals in the San Diego area. Julie is still doing DA. work in San Diego. Son Austin is now three; Sammy, Jr. is now 11; daughter, Maureen, has made Sam a granddad with the birth of her daughter, Maureen. The Winners have just purchased their island in the sky in Pagosa Springs, Colo. This 45-acre spread will be home in six to nine years after Sam retires. I wish I could be as prophetic about my future as Sam has always been. Instead, my life and career have been as peripatetic as JIM TOZER's in that I have left the Prudential for more exciting moments "elsewhere." Hopefully, by the time you read this, I will be happily at work "elsewhere." While on a recent interview trip to the Big Apple, YOURS TRULY bumped into JIM BLAIR amidst the morning rush hour crunch in Grand Central one sunny September day. We caught up on the years we had not talked while the humanity of the suburbs passed us by on its way to work. Quite coincidentally, I received through the alumni office a press release from Jim's employer, Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association, which was extolling his elevation to vice president of TIAACREF (College Retirement Equities Fund - dummy!). Congratulations to you, Jim, on the promotion, his fifth since his joining Teachers in 1967! In digging deeper into the press transcript I found reference to Jim's paramilitary

activities, namely nightly forays, chairing the Ossining, N.Y. zoning board of appeals. Jim, were you the one who zoned out the electric chair at Sing Sing? In the recent Report of Gifts, there was an error in our Class' listing for the President's Circle. The members are as follows: MARSHALL E. BLUME, ROBERT L. BURGER, H. RICHARD GOODEN, VICTOR F. KEEN , ROBERT C. KNOX Ill, STANLEY J. MARCUSS, JR., CHARLES H. McGILL Ill, SCOTT W. REYNOLDS, and HAROLD K. VICKERY, JR. The Class of '63 can be proud that it leads all other classes in the number of members in Trinity's top gift club. Again, fellow classmates, let me hear from you. You can write me with your news directly to the above address, or through the alumni office.

how much he e(\joyed our 25th Reunion. Don set his thoughts to verse, and the opening lines read: "Bob Hope often regaled us with 'Thanks for the Memories,' Reunion '90 allowed us to relive our reveries." Let's hope our 30th is just as pleasant and e(\joyable. One of our number unable to attend last June was MARK JOHNSON who reports that he and his wife were on a three-month sabbatical in Europe at that time. The Johnsons plan to be present for our next gathering in '95. That's all for now and remember to keep me posted on news of note.

Class Agents:

The alumni office has asked me to print a correction. In the last issue we reported that RANDY LEE had opened a second office in private practice on Prospect Avenue and had a "part-time private practice doing adolescent, individual, and couple psychotherapy. The rest of the time I'm here with two-anda-half year old son, Trevor." This news was actually that of his wife, TRACY BODINE LEE '80. Randy is still associate director of the counseling center at Trinity and associate professor of psychology. Sorry about that. I ran into MIKE MOONVES (He lives! He's not a phantom!) outside Fenway Park last week, waiting to get into one of the Red Sox-Oakland play-off games. He looked fine (much better than the Bosox did shortly afterwards) , is still at Governor Dummer, and promises to appear at the 25th in June. PAUL PATAKY wrote in August, reporting, "! live in Boca Raton, Fla., with my wife, Aimee, and our two daughters: Meryl, age seven-and-onehalf, and Lisa, age four. I am an opthalmologist in private practice, and am currently serving as president of the medical staff of Bethesda Memorial Hospital in Boynton Beach, Fla., which is where my practice is located." CHUCK WESTON reported the birth of Mary Christina Weston (see Births). Congratulations! ERNEST BAYNARD (that's 路 E.C. Baynard Ill to the legal community in our nation's capital) reported returning to private law practice in Washington, D.C. (the office is Holland and Hart) after having served as an Assistant Secretary of Energy in the Reagan administration. Finally, I'll add that JIM KILGORE reported that Leslie Schweitzer is as lovely as ever - he ran into her (don't worry, Bill!) at a trade conference in Atlanta in September, where their meeting was the high point for Jim.

I am so relieved when summer finally ends. Autumn means I can put away all my warm weather "corrective clothing" that skillfully hides my everwidening girth and slip into huge downfilled parkas, bulky wool sweaters and soft, wrinkled corduroys. Hidden under mounds of clothing, my body can hibernate for the winter without fear that some jerk will start with the fat jokes. I mention the above observation only because I have nothing to report but feel obligated to fill this space with words. I was elected secretary with the promise that if no Class news came in, B.S. would do. I lied. JIM TWERDAHL has saved this column. He wrote. He cared. He changed jobs. Jim gave up corporate life and bought a company in the hobbycraft industry, plus he's about to sign another deal to purchase a luggage manufacturer. Let's name Jim's new company for him. Combine hobbycraft with suitcases, come up with a name and write me. Results next issue. God, this is exciting! Jim also mentioned that he and his three children flew off to a Young Presidents' Organization university in St. Moritz last sununer. One last comment which has nothing to do with our Class. It's about a member of the Class of 1965, DAVID SOTTER. He and his wife own one of the finest restaurants in the Philadelphia area, called the Skippack Roadhouse. It's located in Skippack, Pa. and worth a visit Use my name and see how far that gets you. Send your news or you'll get more quality reporting like this column.

Peter J . Knapp 20 Buena Vista Rd. West Hartford, Conn. 06107 DON KOLB wrote recently to say

Jeffrey Fox Fox & Company, Inc. 34 Dale Rd. Avon,Conn.06001 CHARLIE KURZ was at his monthly

seance, and who should appear but Ute ghost of the late great Colonel Brownell. Charlie reports the Colonel was in good spirits but a lot paler than his statue on the Quad. The Colonel says afterlife is heavenly. His main complaint is the birds who sit on his hat. (Note: the Colonel said sit on his hat.) If anyone is interested in attending Charlie's next session - they're hoping to get Buddy Holly - please call 215-92S-2836. Since we are now in a spiritual phase, YOUR DAUNTLESS SECRETARY contacted our men of the cloth. You will recall STU BARNS is chaplain of Harvard and Radcliffe. Stu is just one of a number of men in the Class of '67 who mend men's souls. Since many of you need cleansing, let's visit the clergy. NED PREVOST is rector of St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Fairfield, Conn. He has been there 10 years, and has a flock of 600-800 good souls. Prior to St. Paul's, Ned labored in Southington and Wallingford, Conn. He and Bev have two lovely daughters: Elizabeth, who is a junior in high school, and Marnie, who is 10. Running a parish is a very busy job, and the hours are long. So Ned and Bev bought a house on Cuttyhunk Island. From their house you can look across the water and overlook Gay Head on Martha's Vineyard. There is a beautiful harbor for sailors, but there are no phones, no raucous nightlife, and no gambling casinos. If any of you needs to make a confession, please call Ned at 203-2593013, or if he's at Cuttyhunk, put a note in a bottle. "Heavenly days are here again, it's twilight time." (The Platters) JIM PURDY is a preacherman in Beverly Farms, Mass. He is rector of St. John's Parish, and ministers to 1,400 adults and 350 children (depending on how you count them). This, sports fans, is a big flock , practically a herd. Like Ned's, Jim's day is from 6 am., often until midnight. He has two assistant priests, both of whom are women. Jim has been running this church for seven years. He and Emma have two great kids: Sara, 11, and Katherine, seven. Jim is very involved in community activities, and reports no mid-life crisis as yet. Those of you who do have a midlife crisis, or a midwife crisis, or just want a way to get words from your lips to God's ears, give Jim a call at 50S-9270229.

LYNN KIRKBY is in the religion game, as well. He is the new vice president for advancement at Trinity Lutheran Seminary in Columbus, Ohio. We don't know what he advances, but he is very busy. We played telephone tag around board meetings, business trips ("church business") and other such stuff. We will track Lynn down for a full report later in the decade. From one Trinity to another is a quick description of Lynn's life over the last 23 years. If you wish to fulfill your secret desire to become a Lutheran seminarian, Lynn will give you an advance on your salary if you call him at 614-2354136. Some save souls, and some save minds (which many of you learned, too late, are a terrible thing to waste). DOUG JACOBS is in the mind-mending

business, so pay attention. Doug is a psychiatrist in Newton, Mass. He has been on the Harvard Medical School faculty for 15 years. That association led to Doug's publishing Suicide, Understanding, and Responding, a book he recently donated to Trinity's library. Doug's career is very successful, and things are well for him and his wife, Mary, and girls, Carolyn, 14, and Deboralt, 11. Mary is a social worker who helps Doug in his medical practice. Doug testified before the House Armed Forces Committee during the investigation of the explosion in the U.S.S. Iowa Doug disagreed with the Navy's position that the explosion was an act of suicide. Doug sees STEVE EUOT once in a while (Steve, you will recall, is a psychologist, another breed of head doctor.) Our spies have learned that Doug weighs in at 220; although this is just a few pounds over his playing weight, it does bring to mind one of the great injustices in the annals of Trinity athletics. Doug was the only guy to win the Dan Jessee Blocking Trophy two years in a row. However, the Trophy is inscribed "David Jacobs" for 1966, and "Doug Jacobs" for 1967. This is a recurring nightmare for Doug's family. If you wish to commiserate with Doug, or have your dreams examined, give him a jingle at 617-332-1673. That's it for the healers. BOB TUTTLE is anti-nudity. He believes people should wear clothes. He believes in this old-fashioned idea so much that he designs computer programs that help clothes designers come up with new looks in mini-skirts, bikinis and other outerwear. Bob is director of software research for Gerber Garment Technology in Connecticut. They are the largest supplier of CAD programs to the apparel industry. He recently spent three weeks in Japan, doing his part in reversing the trade deficit. The Japanese bought some of his programs which are used to run robotic cutters. Bob runs a staff of 17, and business is good. He and his wife, Elizabeth, who is a school teacher have one daughter, Carey, who is 12. If you have any ideas for Bob, send him your old F'rederick's of HoUywood catalogues, or call him at 203-871-8082. He's back. GEORGE SOMMER, that is. At last report he was in London. Now he's in Tulsa where he is corporate director of internal audit for Themorex-Telex. This job takes George all over the U.S. and Europe. Doing operations audits, ensuring pricing policies, and watching for inefficiencies at a two billion dollar company keep George hopping. He and Nancy have been married for 20 years or so and have two good soccer players: Tyler, 13 and Courtney, ll.lfyou need some creative ideas when filling out expense reports, give George a call at 91S-2745432. He's seen them all. Do you remember Annette on the Mickey Mouse Club? Sure you do. This column opened with a heavenly body, so it is fitting to end with a similar vision. BOB EBINGER is a free-lance television cameraman in Los Angeles, and is involved in the serialized dramas of the Mickey Mouse Club for the Disney Channel. He also did a series of children's television announcements

for the Fox network, and a show on cancer for NBC. Bob had to run when we called (to film old Mouseketeers, we think), so we didn't get to hear how Annette is doing. Why don't you give Bob a call at 213-257-0060 and you might get a chance at stardom. (Yes, Richard, you can wear your Mickey Mouse ears when you call.) Call (203-677-4318) or fax (203-6775349) and let us know how Buddy Holly looks. How's his voice ... does he still need those glasses ... is Peggy Sue an animal or what ...?

COLLEEN COURNOT writes to let us know that she has moved her dental office in New York. She completed recently the construction of a brand new office and moved in early June, on time and on budget ("no mean feat in New York City") and thanks her husband, PIERRE COURNOT, for his legal advice dealing with New York landlords and contractors! Colleen notes that her new office address is 30 East 40th St., New York, N.Y. 10016 (212-682-0770). This is two blocks south of Grand Central Station between Madison and Park Avenue. She still practices general dentistry with an emphasis on prosthetics, that is, crowns and bridges. Colleen says, "To most people, going to the dentist ranks on a par with riding the New York City subway. Nevertheless, I would be happy to assist those of you who live in the New York metropolitan area." USE GESCHEIDT notes that she

opened her own law office specializing in criminal defense. Her office is in Providence, R.I. EMiLY HOLCOMBE read her poetry on Sept. 16 in the Koeppel Student Center at Trinity.

Guidance for Death with Dignity Is Key Element for Hospice Head Gerald]. Hansen III '78 was named "citizen of the week" last August by The Ambler Gazette, a weekly newspaper i~1 Pennsylvania . The following article by Melanie Kitchner was edited for publication in the Reporter and is reprinted with permission of The Ambler Gazette.

r. Gerald J. Hansen Ill '78 has

been the medical director ofWissahickon Hospice, located on the Chestnut Hill Hospital campus in Philadelphia, since 1986. While Hansen had some contact with the Hospice during his residency in family practice at Chestnut Hill Hospital and temporarily took over the administrative reins after the Hospice's former director resigned , he at first refused to accept the directorship on a full -time basis. " They asked me to stay but, at that time, I was in the emotional process of adjusting to dealing with people with terminal illnesses and did not feel ready to accept the responsibility on a fulltime basis, " explained Hansen, who is also on the faculty of the Family Practice Residency Program at Abington Memorial Hospital. Originally from Gladwynne, Pa. , Hansen was 18 and 20, respectively, when his two grandmothers died of cancer. Those experiences provided the motivation for him to get involved in hospices. "My famil 짜 was not aware of how a hospice could help; it would have been nicer for us all if we could have had time with them at home," he said . Hansen, known as "Trip" to his family and friends ("there were so many Jerrys in the family and being ' the third' produced the nickname of 'Triple' then Trip' "), is the son of Gerald J. Hansen, Jr. '51, Trinity's director of alumni and college relations. After receiving his bachelor's degree in biology from Trinity, he went on to earn his medical degree from the University of Connecticut School of Medicine in 1983. He did his post-residency training in family therapy at the Philadelphia Child Guidance Clinic.

TRIP HANSEN '78 and Gretchen Mathieu Hansen '78, with their children, Alexandria and Gerald, IV. The young physician has developed a strong interest in how the behavioral sciences interplay with family medicine. He explained that patients who are admi tted to hospice care are expected to live less than six months, have agreed to forgo further curative treatments and have a primary care- giver to tend to them in the home. " We provide palliative treatment to help with the symptoms ," he said. " Every Wednesday we hold team meetings at the Hospice and go over every patient's chart. Their physicians provide the diagnosis and treatment plan; I act in an advisory capacity," he said. " Hospice patients have four fears in common," he continued. "Pain, nausea, weakness and loneliness or abandonment are what concern our patients. The lay person assumes that the patients ' greatest fear is death but that is not the case. "Most of the time is spent talking about living . I think patients want to get closer on family issues and be able to say goodbye," he reflected. Hansen has observed that the hospice patients don' t die until they are ready . "We have treated 900 to 1,000 families since I began here and there have been only two or three patients who have died before they were ready to. The patients actually have some control over their death," he said. "Another interesting phenomenon is that patients often don't die until they get permission from their family."

Hansen is enthusiastically appreciative of the many vol unteers without whom, he said, the hospice effort could not function. "Over 90 people give of their time to help with direct patient care, provide relief so that caregivers may take a break from their duties, help with transportation to and from the doctor or hospital , and with fund-raising," he said . " After the sixweek training course, a volunteer quickl y becomes a key element in our care. We would not have a hospice without volunteer efforts." He and his wife, Gretchen Mathieu Hansen '78, live in Flourtown, Pa. with their two young children. He credits his wife, whom he met at Trinity and who is a psychologist with a family therapy practice, with helping him through the emotional process necessary to interact frequently with terminally-ill patients. He plays squash and raquetball as often as possible, fmding that physical exercise is a great way to relieve the tensions associated with his professional responsibilities. "One of my personal goals is to try to demythologize death," he said. " It is part of the natural process . Death is not this painful, evil thing. In fact, sometimes it's God's way ofhealing. I think if hospice becomes more a part of the fabric of our society, that people will recognize it's okay to die at home and make death less frightening. There is such a degree of human dignity presented by the patients that I find rejuvenating."

Greetings. Once again, I'd like to make a brief disclaimer. Your letters and postcards are great; your classmates and I are most appreciative. Please understand the publishing schedule though ... I submit this column some three months before you see it. Generally, my deadline is around the time a Reporter comes out. What that means, then;is if you're inspired to write upon your perusal of a column, by the time I get your letter I've usually sent in a column, so your news won't get in until I send the next one. So .. . the delay can be as much as six months before you see it. Even though NANCY KATZ is going to tell me this is boring ("Jane, why

don't you write real news?"), I want you to understand so you'll keep writing all those great letters. By the way, Nancy Katz blew through Chicago a while back. Advertising woman extraordinaire, she handled 43 minor crises in a 10-minute period, all while having lunch with me! Unbelievable. CATIIY MARONA wrote from Washington, D.C., just prior to her move to Madison, Wis. to begin a graduate program in South Asian Studies. For the past two years she's been working for a non-profit international development organization. She's excited about her graduate studies, especially after her Peace Corps experience in Nepa!. Flip on VH-1 now that we're growing too old for the MTV audience (forgive me, MTV fans and employees) and look for MARK TIEDEMANN's work. He's currently doing free-lance production for VH-1. ELLEN MORlARTY married Mark Hinnau in June of last year. She can be found in New Haven where she's the director of personnel for The Institute for Professional Practice - it's a large non-profit human service agency. Congratulations and best wishes are also due to Don and MARIA DiBELLA KILEY. Maria was married last May (see Weddings). She and Don live in Forest Hills and Maria is an advertising sales manager for Radio & TV Reports. I am crediting this news to ELUOT KATZ and I hope it came from him (strange copier). Elliot planned to finish his M.BA. at NYU this past summer. Following completion of his degree, he planned to start as an associate in risk management at UBS Securities in New York. He and CIWG MESCHES were looking forward to attending ERIC STEED's wedding. ADRIENNE LOTOSKI moved to Boston to become research director for WCVB-TV. She was formerly a client service representative at Arbitron in New York, but she loves Boston! Congratulations to MATT GOWING on his engagement to Dawn Hecht. Matt, now living in San Francisco, is thrilled. LAURA AUSTIN-ALLYN continues to work in television and is teaching aerobics and dance. That's the news I have. I plan to reinstate my gift-to-the-alumni-fund-forevery-letter program, but until I do, I welcome all suggestions for any other incentive plans. Write or call and let me know how I can get others to do the same. If you're in Chicago, please make sure to call. You can find me most of the time at Leo Burnett. The rest of the time, Rick and I are living it up in this great city. We've adapted the famous Chicago "garden on a bun" to our hot dog stand. Do stop by. Ciao. Cla.ss Agents: Janice M.

Well, here we are again. Season's greetings to everyone and best wishes

as we head into 1991, which is, by the way, the only year in this century in which the number is the same forward and backwards. Good grief, look what I have been reduced to! Class news this quarter is a bit skimpy. But since my first report is still unpublished as I'm writing this one, I forgive you all for not flooding my mailbox with commentary about your life and times. However, I won't be as compassionate in future , tabloid-like efforts . .. get the picture? LORI DAVIS SHIELD gets an A for being a good secretary emeritus ... she reports that she's recently been promoted to media supervisor at Emerson, Lane, Fortuna. If I'm not mistaken, Lori also gets an A for longevity ... she's still working for her first post-Trinity employer. Is there anyone else out there who can match Lori's staying power? Lori passed along word from ALYSON GELLER, who's editing science papers for a professor at UCLA while working towards a master's degree in public health. "I love it," was her succinct commentary on her current lifestyle. Alyson sends matrimonial congratulations via the Reporter to DOUG WEISBURGER and MARTHA ERSKINE , and reports that she ran into newlywed FLOYD IDGGINS when he was on a business trip to LA. Alyson also saw SUSAN BLOOMQUIST, who started with us at Trinity but trans-

ferred during her junior year; Susan is now the proud mom of twins (one of each sex) and is doing well. Doug and Martha aren't the only '85 alums to take a trip to the altar lately. SARAH GRANGER married Bill AdanlS on Oct. 20 (see Weddi ngs), and LOUISA WRIGHT became Louisa Sellers on May 26 (see Weddi ngs). Louisa actually spent her first non-honeymoon, married-person weekend at our Reunion in June. Quite the loyal Bantam, I'd say. ALISON BERLINGER isn't married yet (I think Monty Python would offer something along the lines of "I'm not dead yet," but I'll withhold my marital cynicism for now), but she will be this spring. Ali moved to Atlanta in July, but didn't report what she's doing there. Always the mysterious one, all she wrote was "will let you know." The suspense is killing us, Ali! MIYUKI KANEKO has gone back to school again, having just completed her Ed.M. at Harvard last year and after a year-long stint in the development office at Hartford College for Women. Miyuki is now a first-year law student at Rutgers, although no one has heard from her since she migrated to Jersey in her attempt to have more letters after her name than any of us! Actually, ANTHONY BEAVERS is doing a pretty good job in that department, too. He just received his Ph.D. in philosophy from Marquette (to go along with BA. and MA. degrees from Trinity). He

wrote and successfully defended his dissertation on the metaphysical affectivity and ethical responsibility ... try saying that with your mouth full! DAN GREEN is also plugging his way through grad school; he's in his senior year at the University of Texas' medical branch in Galveston. Dan's applying for a residency in orthopedic surgery and is hoping to return to the Northeast. The Hartford Advocate released its list of ''The Best of Hartford" recently, and the reader's poll voted JOHN BONELLI as the second-best public servant in Connecticut! John finished just behind Hartford Mayor Carrie Perry, and bested both of Connecticut's U.S. Senators. Congratulations on this welldeserved recognition, John. Another one of our classmates, MIKE DUFFY, waged a close, but unsuccessful campaign for a seat in the Massachusetts State Legislature. After winning the Republican primary for state representative in Boston's South End, Mike garnered 46 percent of the vote in the general election, no small feat in the Democratic bastion of Boston. GARY CHRISTELlS graduated cum laude from New York Law School last June.

As you may or may not have noticed, there is sometimes, between the time you submit your news to Trinity, the time I receive it, and the time the news is published, as much as an eight month lag, which can produce some very untimely news.

After working in Washington, D.C. for two years, Phil moved to Bangkok, Thailand in October and now works for the Joint Voluntary Agency, an agency run by the International Rescue Committee under a State Department contract. Phil expects to be "dealing with persons who either fled on foot from Laos or departed Vietnam by boat and ended up in Thailand. Once these individuals arrive, the Thais toss them in a refugee camp where they are stuck pending a review and determination (by a Thai government board which also receives

input from the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees) whether a particular individual has a claim to political asylum and/or whether he/she has relatives who are citizens of a resettlement country, such as the U.S., Canada or Australia. If he/she is screened in (i.e., not found to be simply an 'economic migrant' without overseas relatives, and therefore ineligible for resettlement) and he/she says he/she has ties to the U.S., that's where I come in. Phil is based in Bangkok but spends about 20 days a month on the road at refugee camps- "company car with driver!" - where he wiU interview those individuals seeking to resettle in the U.S. and "based on the information I get, put together a case as to why they should be admitted to the U.S. That involves getting information on overseas relatives, compiling information on any claims for political asylum (i.e., how and why they were persecuted in Vietnam or Laos), and basicaUy getting the person(s) prepared for their interview with an official from the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS). Phil acts as an advocate who has "the ability to try and help people who are stuck in an overcrowded hellhole and seeking to be rejoined with family members who they probably haven't seen in a decade." Phil expects to be in Thailand for a year or two, "depending on how the situation in Cambodia shapes up. If there's a peace settlement, there wiU be a lot of work to do

on the repatriation to Cambodia of the 300,000 plus Cambodians currently in camps on the Thai/Cambodian border." Phil is "pretty sure that I will return to Washington, D.C. after my Asia stint, and hope to put my knowledge and ex路 perience gained out there to work for a human rights refugee organization." That's all for now. Thanks to those of you who've written. As for those of you who haven't, WRITE. Class Agents: Lisa Cadette Hope A. Williams Edward B. Meyercord ill

Yuichi P. Lee 272 Court St. Br ooklyn, N.Y. 1123 1 Hello, fellow '89ers. Before I start, I

want to apologize for this extremely short report Due to uncontrollable circumstances such as people not contacting their friendly secretary, I have only a handful of names. To begin with, I am finishing up my third semester of law school. Nothing exciting is happening in my life except that I'm waiting for the results of finals to be posted on the bulletin board. Reporting from the military, BEN CILENTO is now an officer in the Marines, MATI MAG INNISS is still watching the blue skies in the Air Force, and JAMES STOREY has joined up with the Navy in the medical division. With officers like these boys, Saddam Hussein will surrender in no time! Besides the Middle East, our fellow classmates have been making their mark in other parts of the world. AVACHA! TAYJASANANT has been reported missing in the Morgan Stanley computer room in Taipei, Taiwan. MASSOUD AMIRI is stuffing his face with sushi while attending business school in Japan. CHRISSY CERVONI spent the summer of 1990 in Italy in search of fine Italian art (men!). Back at the homefront, BEVERLEY HARRISON has returned down South to Plant City, Fla to settle down and is planning to attend graduate school. Also moving, but this time crosscountry to San Francisco, is JANICE PIERCE-RENDON (with hubby). Next stop ... Hollywood. STEPHEN FRANCIS has returned from the hills of West Virginia to the Northeast where he can be closer to his "special friend ," EUZABETH ROSANO. M~ MILLER has moved to Providence, R.I. due to relocation with his company, Connecticut National Bank. Also, JASON MANSKE and I have moved from our old homestead to a grander apartment down the street. As you noticed, ROBERT CUMMINGS is no longer with us. Rob is now attending N.Y.U. Business School and is living at home in Armonk, N.Y., where he is a little closer to CIORsDAN CONRAN who is still at UPenn Graduate School. Sadly to report, leaving grad school is ROB VALLETIE, who is now in search of a corporate job. Hey Rob, I think I'm ready to follow your footsteps. ANDREW O'BRIEN and SANDY JEDZINIAK were united in legal matrimony. Among people from Connecticut in attendance was MARGARET COUGHUN who sang a beautiful rendition of "Wind Beneath My Wings." (Who is sorry now!) This past summer, I ran into SUSANNAH BROWN, who was sitting on the steps of Ann Taylor at the South Street Seaport. She was purchasing some back-to-school clothes, since she's on her way to attend Emory Law School. DOUG MACDONALD reported from Rockefeller University in New York. He is presently doing research at a symposium in Barcelona, Spain as part of the Lab at Rockefeller. His work took him to London and Florence. We are looking forward to reading his research paper, "Specificity of Position 9 for Glucagon Activity" in a scientific journal when it is published. JONATHAN MIU.S moved to Brighton, Mass. and is now marketing and selling advertising for a Russian medi-

cal journal, The American-Soviet Medical Market Journal.. Hey Jon, sorry I missed you when you were in New York. As you know, the life of a student is tough. ANDRES ESTRADA is still down on Capitol Hill working as a staff assistant for Senator D.P. Moynihan. He is also attending American University, working for his master's in international affairs.

VINCELETIE, JR. is working for the Institute for Professional Practice as a residential instructor in a group home for the developmentally disabled in East Haven, Conn. LYERLY SPONGBERG was in the September issue of MademoiseUe Magazine. The article described her "dream job" as an assistant in the interiors department with Peter Marino and Associates Architects. Well, we know who to ask for money in the future, don't we? In the few letters I did receive, SHARON KRAFT reports of her endeavors. Sharon teaches third grade in the Independent Day School in Middlefield, Conn. She also reports that she has a wedding date planned for June 29, 1991. In her letter she reports that SHARON CODEANNE is living in Somerville, Mass. and working for the Massachusetts Bar Association. PATIY MARCIANO was doing well in N.Y. when Sharon visited her. In closing, she reports that lRIS ZADEH will be going to Europe and DANIEL GOLDBERG is now located in Rocky Hill and is a financial consultant for a West Hartford firm.

ation may have been. So here is the latest gossip for all of you nosy maggots, beginning with B for Boston (pronounced BAAston here). The Trinity contingent is rather large in this fine city, so please bear with me, so I do not forget anyone. SUSAN MONACO's smiling face is seen around Boston, especially in Harvard Square, where all of the action is. She is working hard at getting her master's in public policy at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government and living nearby in Allston with PAUL DIAZ who is also at the Kennedy School, and BETH UNCOLN, who is researching at the Joslin Diabetes Center. At Harvard Med School is our salutatorian, DAVID WEINSTEIN, who is "breezing through" the field of medicine, as he says - way to go, David! Other Trin alums at Harvard are JOELLE GREENE, attending the Harvard Graduate School of Education, and CHERYL GIAMMUSSO, who is a research assistant for Richard Pipes, a professor of Russian history. KELLY NASH, MEG WAITERS and CAROUNE MARPLE are administrative assistants at Harvard, in the development office, the Carpenters' Center and the Kennedy School, respectively. Speaking of Ms. Marple, I cannot forget the "Grendel's" gang, who include KRISTIN BERGMAN, KIM UNCOLN, ELYA SCHWARTZMAN, TIM CALLAHAN, et al., (I'll be there some day, guys

.. .). When she is not smuggling drugs from Colombia Qust kidding, Mrs. Bergman), Kristen is the assistant to the sculpture department at Childs Gallery. Kim is doing research on hypertension at Brigham & Women's Hospital, and Elya is a management consultant at DRI in Lexington. When last spoken with, Tim was still a proud member of the unemployed. SARA CODD lives in downtown Boston and can be seen managing a specialty boutique in Faneuil Hall. KRISTIN CUMMINGS is "banking it," in a loan officer training program at Bank of Boston, along with ROB RIESKIN '88, GAIL McLAUGHUN '89 and BETH EDELMAN '89. She is studying hard, but still manages to have a ~ood time in the true Trinity fashion. Over in Peabody, Mass. is UNDA DiPAOLO, who is working as a technical support consultant for Easel Corporation. She lives right down the street from JEFF BUZZ!, a marketing representative at Gallo winery in Peabody. He is doing well in the sales department, and has the opportunity to travel a bit. JEAN ELLIOT was spotted temping at Thinking Machines in Cambridge. She loves living in Boston and is looking into grad schools. Down in the financial district is SCOTT HADDAD, a p.c. specialist at Fidelity Investments. Scott went to England for two weeks with the crew

Hi folks ... I am writing this from my new apartment in Boston. For all of you people who had the pleasure to visit my humble abode, it looks the same, and no, we have not disposed of the red fridge. It has character, like us, right? To anyone who does not know what I am talking about, I am living with USA TOMLINSON (aka Willy) in a very colorful neighborhood in East Cambridge. My "real" job is as an assistant editor for CAS (Competence Assurance Systems), at University Park at MIT, a technical support group that makes instructional videos and textbooks for corporations to use in sales training. Lisa is an administrative assistant at Cable and Wireless (Communications, in case you were wondering) . We both like our jobs, but are planning to go back to graduate school soon.

team for the Henley Royal Regatta and "had fun," as he says. Fellow crewbies were GUNNER FURGUESON, SCOTI GERIEN, JOHN ULRICH and ED KUPA, who I was told to say went as a spare (I don't get it, so I hope they do). Bumped into SUE HONYCHURCH and UNDSAY McNAIR on the "T," coming home from a Sox game (9-1 , Chicago), and found out some interesting info. Lindsay is researching at Mass. General Hospital and Sue is working at a shelter for runaway teenagers. They live in Somerville and told me they were Class Agents and would soon be hunting me down for donations. So, now I know whom to avoid, right? TOM SCHAEFER is a sales rep for Allnet Communications in Cambridge, and, I just found out, works out at the same health club that I do. Bali's Holiday also recruited JULIE SCHUTI '88 (an assistant buyer at Johnny Appleseed's), not to mention Lisa and myself. Aah, Cher would be proud. I spoke with EILEEN SHEEHAN, who is a paralegal at Rubin and Rudman in Boston. She is living in the North End with ALYSSA NELSON, who is working at Peat Marwick, an accounting firm, while studying to receive her M.P A. They tell us that DOUG McCABE is a car salesman at a Nissan dealership on the South Shore of Boston. Over at Northeastern University are LAURA COOPER and RON GOODMAN, who are studying for their master's degrees in accounting. Goody is working hard and "taking school seriously," as he says, in order to pass the C.P A. exam with flying colors. Other '90ers in the Boston area include TERRY McNAMARA, TODD LEVINE, RICH MANCINI and MIKE VANDALL. TORY GARDNER is in western Massachusetts, at Williams, going for her MA. in art history. Over in Holyoke, Mass. is BARBARA GINTY, who is living at home, and working as an outreach counselor for a special program in the school system in Springfield. She was accepted into a highly competitive program because of her degree (from Trinity, no less) in psychology. Make us proud, Babs! Traveling down I-95 to Connecticut, we hit good old Trinity, where some '90ers have stuck close by. I spoke with CAROLYN BOYLAN and promised that I wouldn't tell anyone that she said things about them, but I just cannot resist the"power of the pen." She reports that she is living with CARA MATTHEWS in nearby Wethersfield and is doing research for Professor Kehoe, with med school in the near future. Cara is a campaign manager for Marie Galbraith, a candidate for Connecticut state rep. Carolyn spotted UZ HALE and JEN VAN CAMPEN house-sitting at Dean Winer's. Jen is looking for a job and Liz is moonlighting at Margaritaville's, while she saves money for a January trip to China. In case you haven't heard, KIRSTEN BRAATZ is engaged to ED TROIANO and wedding bells can be heard already. Kirsten is working as an receptionist at an ophthalmologist's office in Avon and living in New Hartford, and Ed is anticipating a federal job. Congrats, guys . . . a Chapel wedding, perhaps?

Nearby in Stamford is SUE CARROLL, a computer consultant at Hewitt and Associates. WENDY CLAPP reports that she is living at home in Ellington, Conn., looking for a full-time job. This summer, she spent a relaxing week of "sun and sand" on the Cape with CAROLINE BAILEY, KRISTIN COMSTOCK, HOPE WEINER, ANGIE WOLF, SHERI QUALTERS, CHARLES CHENG and several other Trinity campers. SUE DAVIDSON is e(\joying her new set of "wheels," which she drives from home to UConn every day, while she studies to get her MA. in school psychology. Also at UConn are PETER BERGWALL, in the doctoral program in biochemistry, and DAVID BREAULT, who is at the med school. LYNN FRASCIONE is living with ALEXA RICHMAN in New Britain and is working for Big Brothers/Big Sisters. She plans to attend Columbia University next fall to get her master's in social work. In the financial sector are SAM GOURLEY, who is working for Arthur Andersen, and MATI RODRIGUEZ, who is at The Travelers. NEIL WALSH is also working for The Travelers, as a computer consultant. When last spotted in East Cambridge, Mr. Walsh was soaking wet and carrying a Rolling Rock.

Working in the area of politics is JAMIE MONGILLO, a campaign assistant for the soon-to-be controller of New Haven. Jamie is working long hours for virtually pennies - now that's dedication. BRIAN NUSOM, ROB SICKINGER and NGOC DUNG HO are in the management training program at G. Fox in Hartford. So, if you are in the area, you know whom to go to if you need any discounts. JEFF PROULX is said to be waitering at TGI Friday's close to home, and is eflioying himself for the moment. He plans to find a full-time job soon. JENNIFER SCHULTZ is a promotions designer for Blum Promotions and Display in Elmsford, N.Y. She is living at home for a while but does not mind the commute to the hopping town of Elmsford. What better way to earn money than to do what she loves to do - draw. Schultzie says she works with GINA ZARRA '89 and will be driving up for Homecoming to hang with her old gang. HEIDI WISBACH is a public relations assistant on the Hartford Steam Boiler account at Mintz & Hoke Advertising and Public Relations. Over the summer, she interned at Mintz & Hoke and at WBZ-TV 4 in Boston, and was hired by Mintz & Hoke in their Avon, Conn. branch. Other residents of Connecticut are ROB COCKBURN and TONYA ROUSMANIERE, who are living in Meriden, and MICHELLE WATSON, who is in Greenwich. After spending a summer in Hyannis, Mass. with YOURS TRULY, GABIN RUBIN moved to Washington, D.C. to be a part of the Trinity contingent there. When she is not attending class at Georgetown, she is working on cases for the public defender through The Washington Center. Law school is in the immediate future for Gab, in either New York or possibly Boston (hint,

hint ...). Also in D.C. is ALANA JEYDEL, who talked my ear off with all of the latest Trinity gossip at the Capitol. She is a paralegal at Milbank, Tweed, et al.,and lives in Alexandria, Va. with many other Trinity grads. She says she rides in on the Metro with PAM HICKORY and MARNEY FAESY. Pam is a paralegal at Allied Capital and Marney works at the National Gallery. Working in a law firm seems to be the thing to do in D.C. and fellow paralegals are MIKE PETRUCELU (Arent, Fox, etc.), GREG POITRAS (Cummington & Berling), LIZ SILVA (Sidley & Austen), JIM WALSH and JOHN GREENSPAN. John is living with LEVI RICHARDSON, who is working for a non-profit organization. Rumor has it Goon is still wringing out the rug from one of their basement gatherings. RUSS OSTERMAN is a salesperson for Eddie Bauer. ANA CARVAJAL is teaching biology, chemistry and algebra to high school students at Connelly School in D.C. She is living in Falls Church, Va. with HELENE KIRWAN-TAYLOR, who is at the Office of Technical Assessment (OTA), and TERRELL SMITH, a free-lancer for Time-Life. Nearby are SUSAN CLARKE, who is at the Corcoran Gallery, and KATE MACAULAY, who is working on a senatorial campaign. RANDY HANNON and SARAH RAFLE are living in an apartment in the heart of the city. Randy is at American University Law School and Sarah is on the mad job search. UZ HORN is working in the public relations office at the American Film Institute. Also in D.C. (employment unknown or soon-to-be) are JEFF BARRY, ALEX EWERT, GAIL FEINBERG, FERNANDO GUTIERREZ, MEUSSA HALLMAN, ANGIE HAN, DAVE HOPPER, CHAD OPPENHEIMER, SARAH REED, TIM SEffiERT, THIS VAUGHAN and CINDY WOOSNAM. I do not know what these guys are doing, but I know they're there. If you are in the area, look them up. After Washington, I think it would be a good time to mention all of the lawyers that will emerge from the Class of 1990. So, if you are ever having some serious problems, come talk to them: DENISE CHICOINE is at the Boston College Law School with MIKE DONOVAN '87 and BRAD BABBITI '87 and RICH MALONEY '89. She lives in Newton with some B.C. students, but still manages to hang out in Boston with her Trinity pals, despite her heavy schedule. STEVE COYLE is living at home and going to Western New England Law School. He says law school is tough, as he expected, but he likes the challenge. He has been down to Boston to visit with DOUG CAMERON, who is living in Stowe, Vt. Dougie is applying to law schools and has interviewed with several firms in the Boston area. AL FUENTE is at Case Western Law, GUY OKSENHENDLER is attending Brooklyn Law, and VICKY WINTER is at George Mason Law in D.C. Down in Philly is TERESA SCALZO, studying for her J .D. at Temple University. She wants us all to come down to Philly and hang with her. She says she

might even cook some pasta for us, just like the kind "Mama T" used to make. Also in Pennsylvania is GREG JOHNSON, who spent a summer on the Jersey shore. Gretzky is currently working as a waiter at Gator's Restaurant in Valley Forge, while still "seeking that most elusive first job in the financial sector." On the other side of the country, in the state of Washington, Seattle to be exact, we find several members of the Class of 1990. JEANETTE EDELSTEIN says that she and LAURA KEARNEY are eflioying themselves in the beautiful city of Seattle, but will be trekking back to Trin for Homecoming to see everyone. Also in Washington are ALIX OGDEN, JUUA VIRDONE, JOE CADIGAN and CHRIS U CHATZ. DAVE and TOBY BATES spent the summer out there and then moved back to Cleveland, Ohio, where they are currently residing. Let's all give them a big "Hello, Cleveland ..." Down in sunny California is MIKE CARNEY, who moved to Los Angeles this past August. Mike writes about his fascinating job at the National Neurological Research Bank (a "brain bank"). He plans to go to UCLA in a year or two to get his Ph.D. He also mentioned a part that he was chosen for in an upcoming movie called, "Keeper of the Gap," -just for being in the right place at the right time! Also in California we find SCOTT (Opus) GERIEN, who is an assistant account executive for a local advertising agency. In his spare time he coaches novice crew at Redwood High School. He is living in San Francisco with PAUL CHE KENNEDY and they plan to come to Homecoming in 1991. CHRISTINE HULL was spotted in Palos Verde, Calif. She is working as a legal assistant, while living at home and has plans to attend law school in the near future . After working at an internship for the Washington Redskins this summer, MIKE MACCAGNAN was chosen as a scout for the New World Football League, a branch of the NFL. He is stationed in Dallas, but frequents the Boston area quite a bit. In New York City, ALEXIS BRASRICH reports that she is living at home and attending classes at both the New York School of Interior Design with VICTORIA CLEVELAND '89 and Cooper Union, with RICHARD COLEMAN. When she is not studying, Alexis is working part-time at McLaughlin's Clothing Store. DAWN BROWNE recently moved into a new apartment on the upper West Side. Rumor has it that by day she is an editorial assistant at the College Board and, by night, she moonlights as a cocktail waitress. She frequently runs into Trinity grads like MIM1 KELLER and SCOTT ENGUSH, who are both working at Conde Nast publishers. The two attended the Radcliffe Publishing course over the summer and are now editorial assistants. They also live with PETE DENIOUS, who is working for Chemical Bank. Two possible lawyers in N.Y.C. are COURTNEY C!MlLLUCA, a legal assistant at Donaldson, Lulldn and Jenrette on the West Side, and TED FOSS, who is at a law firm downtown. MARIE DEMPSEY is living in Rye, N.Y., but commutes to Manhattan daily.

She was chosen as the assistant director of public affairs at a (major) Japanese trade organization. DAN GOLDMAN is living in lovely Brooklyn Heights, N.Y. with STEVE VAN PUTIEN. Mono is "trading Deutschmarks" at J.P. Morgan and Steve is a paralegal in midtown Manhattan. BEKA JEANETIE reports that she, AMY KELLY and RAJESH SINGH are all in the management training program at Bloomingdale's. She loves the world of retail and has apartment plans with KATE HOPKINS. Amy is living in the city with SARA MOORIN, who has a job in the admissions office at Nightengale-Bramford, a regional school. JIM MURPHY is an account representative at Kidder Peabody in Manhattan. He is said to be working 12 hours a day, but loving it, and has seen MIKE CAVANAUGH and DAVE KILBORN. STEVE WEINSTEIN reports that he is attending NYU Law School, finds the work challenging, but still loves it. He runs into SCOTI' GOLDSMITH, ANDY KATZ and ANDY SCHINDERMAN, who are living together on the East Side, and entertaining frequently. Also in the big city is KATIE TOZER, but, Katie, the fax has yet to come ... In my home state of New Jersey only a few graduates have taken up residence, which puzzles me a bit. (It's a lovely state, don't you think?) ROBIN SILVER was up in Boston visiting, and excitedly talked about her new job at Chubb in Murray Hill, N.J. DAVE LOEW is still looking for a job and LIZ ATHERTON is residing in Ridgewood. Down in Delaware, STEVE SONNONE is a claims representative at CIGNA. Sonnone says that not only does he "represent claims," he also manages his own department and supervises numerous business transactions, in addition to dealing with his own clients on a daily basis. He wanted to make sure I said hello from him to his many friends. Aah, the travel section. These people were lucky enough not to have to pay their first month's rent, cook their own meals, or actually work a full day. Instead, they get to see the world, experience new and different things, foreign to us working people. And what do we get in return? A few tacky postcards, and maybe aT-shirt if we're lucky. En route, in alphabetical order are: LJSA BANKS spent the summer as a sales rep for Reebok and just left on a European tour with KATHY ENNIS and LEANNE LEBRUN '89. DAVE BROSGOL, STEWART MANGER and FRANCINE MALLEMENT are all in England, milling among the Brits. LIZ STEINHOUSER is also in Britain, working for Procter & Gamble. LIZ FLAMMIA spent the summer profitably, by creating her own catering service, affectionately entitled "Intimate Affairs." She recently set off on an extended European trip with JULIE BELLATIN . AJ KOHLHEPP, BENNET NOTMAN and BILL MACARTNEY just embarked on an extended trip to Australia, Fiji, New Zealand, the Far East, Greece and maybe Europe (if there's time). Upon return to the U.S. (arrival time unknown), these guys should have some very interesting stories to tell. DAVE LANDA is in Taiwan teaching

English to the residents, quite the adventuresome task, if I do say so myself. LAURA TAYLOR is reported to be in Malta, fulfilling her responsibilities for the Watson Fellowship. Well, that's about all I have time (and room) for. I hope I managed to include all who wanted to have their names in print, or to be included. Any complaints go directly to the editor- that's me, by the way, in case you were wondering. So keep those letters coming! By the time you read this, I will have seen all of you at Homecoming and everyone will have new and exciting things for me to write, right? Take care of yourselves. Later, dudes.
