Our Changing
Landscape
BY DR.TIM GILMOUR, WILKES UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT
ORTHOSE OF YOU WHO VISITTHE WILKES CAMPUS, I'M SURE YOU'LL NOTICE
the significant improvements to our beautiful university grounds and
revitalized downtown. The Wilkes University Board of Trustees
dedicated alumni and regional leaders are working hard to improve
the campus and downtown business district. If you haven’t visited recently
you should see what you are missing! In the meantime, take a minute to read
| the cover and feature stories in this issue to gain an understanding of the
| latest developments.
£
The feature story on the new pergola demonstrates the impact an alumnus can
have on the landscape of Wilkes University. Clayton Karambelas ’49 and his
wonderful wife, Theresa, should be commended for their unique contribution of
a Greek pergola that will soon grace the Greenway next to the Alumni House.
This wonderful tribute will be enjoyed for generations by students and alumni.
For all of us here in Wilkes-Barre, the wait for a downtown bookstore has
taken a decade. But the presence of a Barnes & Noble College Superstore
near Public Square on South Main Street was worth the wait. It is everything
we had hoped for. With 20,000 square feet of retail space, this academic
superstore will serve students from King’s College, Luzerne County
Community College and Wilkes University as well as theater-goers, shoppers
and others looking to reignite downtown nightlife.
Wilkes could not have done this alone. Without close collaboration with our
friends at King’s, and without the assistance of the Greater Wilkes-Barre Chamber
of Business and Industry and the city and county governments, this wonderful
development would not have materialized. This is the first time that two colleges
have collaborated with Barnes & Noble to jointly operate a bookstore anywhere
in the U.S. It shows a commitment to think in new ways so we can best serve our
students and our community. I hope it is just the beginning of innovative ways to
improve student services and to lower the costs of doing business.
This issue of Universe also includes the Report of Gifts for 2005-2006. You
will find hundreds of names of alumni who, over the years, have supported
students through generous giving to scholarships and general fund needs. 1
want to personally thank each and ever}' one of you for your support. We
should all be pleased that Wilkes has raised SI million more this year than
two years ago. To reach our goal of becoming a premier university in the Mid
I
1
Atlantic Region, we will need everyone’s continued support.
The Report of Gifts also shows that Wilkes University raised 5100,000 for
student scholarships from local businesses and corporations in support of the
Jay S. Sidhu School of Business and Leadership “Outstanding Leadership Fund.
Hope to see you on campus soon. L! I

In Memory/ln Honor:
Emilio A. Marianelli '73
Made a Great Investment
Emilio Marianelli ’73 was looking
for ways to honor Dr. Umid Nejib,
who passed away in 2002 after
serving Wilkes for 37 years. Dr.
Nejib was a professor of electrical
engineering, dean of the school of
science and engineering and was
responsible for the development and
accreditation of the Doctor of
Pharmacy program.
“Let’s keep Dr. Nejib’s vision and
memory fresh for future genera
tions,” was what Emilio had in mind
when he made a generous gift to
increase the Nejib Scholarship Fund.
The funds of an endowment will
never be exhausted. Earnings from
these invested funds will provide
talented students with a chance to
realize their educational dreams.
Ninety-seven percent of our
undergraduate students receive
financial assistance from Wilkes,
and this support often makes the
difference whether a student can
attend or not.
Why not follow Marianelli’s lead
to increase Wilkes’ endowments
when you want to make a gift in
memory or in honor of a special
person in your life?

Development Office at 570-408-4300.

Fenner Quadrangle and
Residence Halls Get Facelift
As part of the university’s 20-ycar
master plan to create a green, urban
campus, an additional 3.2 acres of
green space is being added to the
Fenner Quadrangle, making “the
quad" a more inviting, student
friendly place. Expansion and
landscaping of the green space is
expected to be completed by the
end of the year.
An artist renderingj depicts Delaware and
Chesapeake residen
:nce hall renovations.
The project coincides with a
SI.5 million renovation of the
Delaware and Chesapeake
residence halls, which are located
at the north end of the quad. The
renovation project will add 12 beds,
a sprinkler system, central air
conditioning, a center skylight and
Wi-Fi capabilities, plus new
furniture, lighting and windows to
the halls. While under
construction, the university is
leasing housing around the Wilkes
campus until the buildings reopen
for the 2007-08 academic year.
Other residence halls arc slated for
improvement or renovations over
the next 15 years.

The campus is getting greener thanks to expansion of the Fenner Quadrangle.
The Evans Hall parking lot was
removed to make room for greenway
expansion. Parking has shifted to the
new University Center on Main
parking garage in the 100 block of
South Main Street. Another element
to the project is construction of a
pergola, a canopied walkway, made
possible by a gift from alumnus
Clayton Karambelas ’49 and his wife
Theresa. Read more about the
pergola on pages 16-17.
Wilkes Purchases High-Rise
Apartment Complex
Wilkes University officials recently
announced they have reached an
agreement of sale to purchase
University Towers, a 130-unit
apartment building located at 10 E.
South Street in Wilkes-Barre. Wilkes
will purchase the building for
S8.2 million from JPJR Ten E. South
Tower, LP, an affiliate of Trivest
Realty Group, LLC of Washington
Crossing, Pa.
The acquisition will solidify the
university’s presence as an anchor to
the downtown business district. In
line with its master and strategic
plans, the university will eventually
reduce its presence in the neighbor
hoods south of the campus and
support downtown economic devel
opment while creating increas-

ingly advantageous living/leaming
environments at the university.
“This is an extraordinary move for
Wilkes," said Dr. Tim Gilmour,
Wilkes president. “Wilkes will serve
its students better, enhance
residential living options and
further the reputation that WilkesBarre is a college town.”
About half of the University
Towers’ 205 occupants are students,
according to Scott Byers, vice
president for finance and support
operations. “There will be absolutely
no changes in the mix of tenants in
the near future,” he said.
Wilkes has had students
residing at University Towers
for the past three years in
what Dr. Paul Adams,
vice president for
students affairs, has described as “a
remarkably successful living
arrangement that has blended gener
ations in the same living space.
“This was a particularly
attractive option for the university
since University Towers is the
preferred living space for our oncampus students,” Adams said.
University Towers currently has
the capacity to house 405 students,
doubling the number of occupants
and further increasing the number
of residents living in the WilkesBarre business district. The
university does not anticipate
reaching maximum occupancy for
several years.
Wilkes will be able to offer
student programming to a much
larger audience, including support
for mentoring and studying activ
ities that are intended to increase
student success. The college will no
longer need to rent residential space
from private landlords and will sell

Colleges Connect
Students Online
BY JANET KORNBLUM, USATODAY
Andrew Seaman has a few jitters about
going to college for the first time later
this month. But upperclassmen already
have made him feel better—and he's
never even met them face to face.
Seaman, who will attend Wilkes
University in Wilkes-Barre, Pa., has
inquired about student politics and
dorm living on HelioWilkes, a private
network the school created this year
for incoming freshmen.
"The other kids were able to put my
mind at ease that the dorm rooms are
livable," says Seaman, 18, of Forest
Hill, Pa.They've also doled out advice
on how to get involved in student
government.
Without the site, "I would've been
more nervous," he says.
To better communicate with a gener
ation that socializes online on websites
such as MySpace and Facebook, many
colleges are launching into the social
networking frenzy.
More than a dozen so far have
created private sites with features
from profiles to bulletin boards and
information areas.
"In a year or two virtually every
college will have something like
this," says Steve Jones, communica
tions professor at the University of
Illinois, Chicago.
The reason is "obvious," he says.
"This has become such a familiar
mode of communication for
teenagers; it's basically meeting them
on their own turf. It makes it more
comfortable to get information they
might not otherwise get."
Administrators say they use the
sites both to market their schools to
potential students and to put new
freshmen at ease.
Students find out about the sites in
a variety of ways — from e-mail and
postal mail invitations to orienta
tions. Most schools feature
prominent links promoting the sites
on their main university websites.
"We realized that in order to
communicate truly effectively to
students we needed a medium that
they are already accustomed to," says
Mark Sikes, assistant dean of students
at the College of William & Mary in
Williamsburg, Va., which created a site
for freshman this year.
Along with message boards that
allow students to connect, the site
acts as a clearinghouse for all sorts of
information on everything from
classes to regional culture and events.
College networking sites vary.
Some are little more than message
boards, others have areas where
students can write full profiles and
communicate with each other like
they do on MySpace and Facebook.
And judging by the traffic at some
sites, students are using them. At
William & Mary, for instance, 1,500 of
the 1,600 newly admitted students
have logged on in the past month,
Sikes says.
Other schools with new networking
sites this year include Harrisburg (Pa.)
University of Science andTechnology;
Marietta (Ohio) College; Wellesley
(Mass.) College; Purchase (N.Y.)
College and Seton Hall University in
South Orange, N.J.
"Universities need to be where
people are," says Cheryl Brown,
director of undergraduate admissions
for Binghamton (N.Y.) University,
which also has a new site.
Seaman and his friend, Stephanie
Gerchman, also an incoming Wilkes
freshman, say HelloWilkes makes
connections and answers questions.
Gerchman, for instance, got advice
from upperclassmen to choose
psychology as her minor.
Some kids like the idea of
"advance networking" so much
that they are even taking a do-ityourself approach.
Gerchman says she prefers
MySpace and Facebook because they
allow her to directly contact friends.
HelloWilkes has an area to post
personal profiles and to weigh in on
predesignated topics, such as dorm
living and studying, but there's no
built-in spot for e-mail addresses or
instant-messaging names.
So she created her own space on
MySpace, based on the HelloWilkes
site, open to incoming Wilkes
students. She also uses Facebook,
and already has a movie night
planned for the beginning of the
school year with another Wilkes
student she met there.
Some colleges use college-oriented
Facebook rather than building their
own sites.
"Why re-invent the wheel?" says
Christopher Oertel, director of
residential life for the College of Saint
Rose in Albany, N.Y. He created a
Facebook page for his department to
reach out to incoming freshmen.
"We're taking advantage of what's
provided for us."
Some worry that creating their own
online networks could create legal
problems. "If we exercise prior review
or censorship, we're going to invite a
whole new series of litigations," says
Michael Bugeja, director of the
Greenlee School of Journalism and
Communication at Iowa State
University in Ames.
But by and large, students' contribu
tions are valuable, administrators say.
"If you want the authenticity and
true voice of the students, you have to
be willing to take the bad with the
good," says Binghamton's Brown. "On
occasion, something sneaks in where
we go, 'gulp.' And so far we have
been pretty open about letting our
students' comments stand as is.
"For students, these really are
social connections," she says. "If we
want to connect with our students and
have them connect with each other,
we need to be taking advantage of
this medium."

WILKES UNIVERSITY
BY JOHN SEITZINGER
HE WILKES UNIVERSITY ATHLETICS
Hall of Fame inducted its
14th class in a ceremony on
Saturday. Oct. 8 on the
Wilkes campus.
The Hall of Fame was established
in 1993 to honor those players,
coaches and other non-partici
pating individuals who have made
outstanding contributions to
athletics at Bucknell Junior
College, Wilkes College and
Wilkes University.
Neil Dadurka '57
The late Neil Dadurka was a
three-sport participant during his
collegiate days at Wilkes.
On the field, Dadurka garnered
four varsity letters in wrestling and
helped the team post a 28-11-2
record. As a senior, he was one of
the Colonels team captains and led
the unit to its first Middle Atlantic
Conference (MAC) championship.
Dadurka had an individual record
of 8-3 during his final campaign,
playing a critical role as the squad
J
posted their first unbeaten season by
going 10-0-1.
Dadurka was also a four-year
member of the Colonels football
team, and played on the first varsity
golf team at Wilkes in 1957.
Dadurkas leadership skills were
evident. He served as the president of
the senior class in 1957, and was the
president of the Letterman’s Club.
Dadurka was also the vice president
of his sophomore class in 1955 and

was selected to Who’s Who in
American Colleges and Universities.
Karen (Olney) Hazleton '78
Karen (Olney) Hazleton was a
four-year member of the women’s
basketball team from 1974 through
1978, while also earning two varsity
letters in softball during the 1977
and 1978 seasons.
On the basketball court, Hazleton
was a top point producer during
each of her four seasons. She set
what was then a school record by'
amassing 731 points during her
basketball career. As a sophomore,
she earned a berth on the
Northeastern Pennsylvania Women’s
Intercollegiate Athletic Association
all-star team after leading Wilkes
with 212 points. She was voted as
the Lady' Colonels Most Valuable
Player in both 1976 and 1978, and
served as the team’s captain during
her senior year.
Hazleton also excelled during her
two seasons on the softball diamond.
A pitcher for the Lady Colonels,
she was named to the Northeastern
Pennsylvania Women’s Intercollegiate
Athletic Association all-star squad as
a senior and was voted the team’s
Most Valuable Play'er.
Kim Kaskel '96
A four-year member of the field
hockey team from 1992 through
1995, Kaskel helped Wilkes win

Bob Wachowski '89
No one in the history' of Wilkes
University athletics could energize
and unite a student body as
effectively as Wachowski. Affection
ately known as “Colonel Bob,”
Wachowski spent four seasons as
the mascot al Wilkes, serving in that
capacity' from 1987 through 1989,
and again from 1992 through 1994.
A true ambassador of athletics at
Wilkes, Wachowski always found a
way to make a grand entrance. Many
times he would arrive to an athletic
event riding his eight-foot unicycle.
Other times, he might be seen riding
his go-cart with a dummy dressed in
opponent's colors dragging behind.
He arrived at Homecoming one year
riding a horse, while yet another
time he landed on Ralston Field
in a helicopter.
Wachowski would even show
up at opposing sites, unicycle and
all, to provide inspiration during a
key game.
Wachowski was so popular that
he was asked to serve as the student
speaker at Commencement in both
1989 and 1994. He also served as
the student speaker at the
dedication of the Arnaud C. Marts

serves the needs of the general

floors of the former Woolworth’s

creating approximately 20,000
square feet of retail space.
The first floor of the historic
building looks like a traditional
Barnes & Noble store with
newspapers, magazines and a wide

an 84-seat, full-service Barnes &

Maloney explained that the term
"academic superstore" is used to
describe a store that is a mixture of a
traditional Barnes & Noble store
and a college bookstore. "An
academic superstore is typically
located on the edge of campus." he
said. "It brings the university and
community together in a different
way. improving relationships
between the two. It's a wonderful
vehicle to create that bridge between
'town' and ‘gown.’"
!
"This is the
largest single
retail project
in Wilkes-Barre
in 30 years.
It's a huge step
for downtown
Wilkes-Barre."
Barnes & Noble currently operates
more than 570 college bookstores.
Of those, nearly 50 are academic
superstores like the one in WilkesBarre. The Bames & Noble
bookstore in Wilkes-Barre joins an
impressive list of colleges and
universities with academic super
stores on the edge of campus or
close to town, including Southern
Methodist University, University of
Pennsylvania, The Ohio State
University. Yale University, Georgia
Tech, DePaul University and
Dartmouth College.
“The academic superstore that
Barnes & Noble brings to WilkesBarre is centered around the needs of
the campus with a mix of retail to it.”
14
Byers said. "The former bookstore
campus was 3,000 square feet. The
Bames & Noble bookstore will be six
times larger at about 20,000 square
feet. The company brings an
expertise that is second to none. It is
a well-recognized brand known for
its quality.”
Community Reactions
The downtown bookstore is a key
piece in the overall strategy to
revitalize downtown, and the
community has been embracing it.
“The reaction has been
unbelievably positive,” Lohman
said. “This is the largest single
retail project in Wilkes-Barre in 30
years. Barnes & Noble brings a
nationally recognized retail store to
town, adding to part of the fabric of
downtown. It's a huge step for
downtown Wilkes-Barre.”
“For a long time, people asked
why downtown Wilkes-Barre is not
more of a college town,” Newman
said. “There are 6,500 college
students here, but traditionally,
there was a divide between ‘town’
and ’gown.’ That divide is rapidly
disappearing."
Gilmour said feedback from
students, faculty and staff when the
bookstore was officially announced
in August 2006 was very positive.
"Overall, there is genuine enthu
siasm to having Barnes & Noble
bookstore,” he said. “Students will
have to walk a little farther to get
their books, but they’ll be walking
there a lot as other businesses
open. Once they walk the two
blocks and come to the bookstore,
they’ll enjoy it.”
Jenna Strzelecki, a senior business
administration student and
president of student government at
Wilkes, said the new Barnes &
Noble bookstore will help current
and future Wilkes students and
make a good addition to the city. "It
gives students the opportunity to get
down to the center of Wilkes-Barre
and see what’s beyond the Wilkes
campus, giving them a different
perspective of the city,” she said.
“Since it’s a joint bookstore, it gives
Wilkes students a chance to get to
know King’s people more and vice
versa. There is a little bit of a rivalry
place where the community could
go and congregate. It does much
more than provide required educa
tional materials.”
In addition to offering books,
magazines and school merchandise,
the Barnes & Noble location
provides another positive place to
hang out in Wilkes-Barre.
“Approximately 14,000 people live
and work downtown,” Byers said.
“People can go there at lunchtime,
shop and have a cup of coffee. It’s
another level of service that couldn't
have happened without this collabo
ration. The bookstore helps to
further revitalize Wilkes-Barre by
giving more things to do during the
week and weekend for students and
members of the community."
Competitors Collaborate
When discussing this new
bookstore, the word heard most
often from Wilkes and King’s admin
istrators, Chamber officials and
between the two schools because
we’re located so close, but the
bookstore is a good idea.”
The bookstore helps faculty and
members of the community as well
as students, Maloney said. “A
tremendous amount of books are
available to them,” he said. “It gives
them a place to come together.
Some faculty members may

oration. Despite being in-city rivals
who compete for students and wins
on the sports field, Wilkes and
King’s were able to come together.
“Collaboration was crucial,”
Gilmour said. “We had a real desire
to create this bookstore and felt it
was a real value to our students. We
[Wilkesl couldn’t do it alone, but we
[Wilkes and King's] could do it
together. Both of us can be so much
stronger if we collaborate.”
Setting aside the rivalry was not
difficult. Byers said. "The bookstore
is part of the first wave of opportu
nities to collaborate and benefit
both universities,” he said.
“Students at Wilkes and King’s
interact a lot now, but this helps
solidify those interactions.”
A New Wilkes-Barre
Gilmour believes that the project is
much more than a bookstore; it is
part of an effort to revitalize
downtown Wilkes-Barre. “There is
a definite feeling that this will be a
major step forward in the city’s
revitalization,” Gilmour said.
“With Barnes & Noble moving in,
it signals to other retailers that
Wilkes-Barre is a vibrant town.”
Strzelecki said the bookstore
is good for the city and its future.
“Economically for the city, it was
needed,” she said. "The new
bookstore will draw a lot more
people in from surrounding
areas to Wilkes-Barre. By
bringing people in, it gives
| Wilkes-Barre a jumpstart for
revitalization and could help
bring in other businesses."
Byers cites three reasons
this new bookstore is
important to Wilkes and the city.
“First, it’s Barnes & Noble—we
attracted a world-class retailer,” he
said. “Second, we couldn't have
done this on our own. Third, the
bookstore serves to further revitalize
the city, which is critical to the long
term success of the city and the
university. We can’t act as an island
and not be active with our city."
Maloney said he is happy to be a
part of the redevelopment of the
city. “1 think the bookstore is a
wonderful thing for Wilkes-Barre,”
he said. “These two institutions of
higher education located half a mile
apart were able to come together
and make this happen. The store
will celebrate the rebirth of WilkesBarre and the two schools. I hope
it’s a place that the community
takes pride in.
“I’m very happy to be a part of
this. I’m verj’ proud that we [Barnes
& Noble] were selected. And I’m
ver)' optimistic about the bookstore
and the future of Wilkes-Barre."
Wilkes alumni who have not
returned to Wilkes-Barre in a few
years may be surprised at how the
city has changed. “The difference
is amazing, and alums will be
pleasantly surprised even if their
last visit was three or four years
ago,” Gilmour said. “You have a
Barnes & Noble, a 14-screen
movie theater and night club that
have changed the character of
South Main Street significantly.
South Main is much more lively
and attractive."
Lohman said alums will see a new
Wilkes-Barre that they haven't seen
before. "They’ll sec a cleaner, brighter
and vibrant Wilkes-Barre that they
haven't seen in decades." H1

Piece of Ancient Greece
Special couple's vision for campus is becoming a reality

thanks to Clayton '49 and
I
Theresa Karambelas.
As the focal point of Wilkes’ new
Greenway project, which also
includes landscaping, a formal
walkway and a volleyball court,
Clayton and Theresa have donated a
beautiful pergola. Located next to
the Alumni House and behind
Breiseth Hall, construction of the
pergola will begin later this year
with trelliswork and Greek-style
columns that will be filled with
colorful flowers and climbing vines
in the spring.
f
“The pergola is such a nice anchor
for the Greenway," Clayton said. “As
a classic Greek structure, it is a
fitting gift from my wife, Theresa,
and I since my family is from Greece
and her family is from Italy, where
pergolas began."
A rare architectural structure for
college campuses, the Karambelas
pergola is even more unique because
it features a stage for outdoor
theatrical performances, concerts or
gatherings. The pergola is approxi
mately 56 feet long and 15 feet wide
and can be used for an unlimited
number of activities—from
weddings to relaxing in the shade.
's'
“As we worked with the architect
to develop the construction plans
we wanted to lake the idea of a
pergola and modernize it so
students would take full advantage
of it,” Theresa said. “We wanted it
to be a quiet place to contemplate
and escape but also be in the heart
of the campus. Since we didn’t
want it to just occupy space, I
think incorporating the stage was
the best idea. That way, the uses for
it are unlimited."
Marty Williams, vice president of
advancement, agrees. “The concept
of the Greenway was to improve the
space around the Alumni House and
create an environmentally friendly,
ceremonial place,” Williams said.
“The pergola is a great addition to
the university and is a strong
reminder of the power of
architecture and ideas.

drivers on River Street apprised of
the latest happenings around
campus and the community.
“I thought the sign was a good
idea because if I wanted to know
what’s happening around Wilkes,
other people probably do, too,”
Clayton said. “Theresa and I live
only a mile or so away from

students, we wanted to stay

money to Wilkes each year. “As a

he said. “After all, the university can't

How it AH Started
Since his undergraduate years,
Clayton has been extremely active at
Wilkes. Graduating in 1949 with a
bachelor's degree in commerce and
finance, Clayton was president of
Student Council and of the
Thespians. He also was an athlete.
He was on the university's first
wrestling team, first tennis team and
was the coach and co-captain of the
first swimming team.
“And he’s still a social butterfly,”
Theresa added.
Now married 39 years and retired,

eventually formed an affinity for the
university, its wrestling team and
ultimately all things Wilkes.
Community Involvement
In addition to being involved at
Wilkes University, Clayton and
Theresa also are active within their
community and the Greek Orthodox
Church in Wilkes-Barre.
Clayton has always lived within one
mile from the university. For several
years after college, he ran a restaurant
and candy shop that his father and
uncle started in 1923 called The
Boston Restaurant and Candy Shop.
After he sold the business in 1973, he
started C.K. Coffee Service and
continued to grow that company for
more than 30 years. With these
businesses and his involvement with
charities, Clayton is a prominent
member of the community.
“We’re really excited for the new
things happening at Wilkes and in
Wilkes-Barre," Theresa said. "We

ideas. It is only natural that you may want to change your
career to something you’re more passionate about and that’s better suited to your interests.
Sometimes, careers can be chosen based on your individual skills as well. Just as with the
previous example, if you are good with math, you may choose to become an accountant, because your
skills are best suited for that job. While you may still appreciate medicine, you could always study it as a
hobby.
It is also important to note that job availability and finances can affect how you choose a path.
In any case, you should be encouraged to change career paths as often as you need to make sure you
are building yourself a bright and happy future. Changing career paths shouldn’t be viewed as being
indecisive, but rather as a growth opportunity for your potential into a field that is suited for you.

�Trying to be the Perfect Student
By Giovanni Rodriguez
Listen. Do you find yourself overworking because you want to have perfect grades? Maybe
you ask your friends about what they did on an assignment and they said they basically did the bare
minimum and earned a 100. However, you tried your hardest on that assignment and completely
stressed over it to get the same score. You received that 100, but then it does not satisfy you because
everyone else received the same grade without all of the effort .
Well, my friends, I can relate.
Ever since elementary school, I have always been a straight A student. School has usually come
easy to me, so maintaining those grades has never been a problem. Having this image for so long, it
is a habit to use everything in my power to keep myself as the “perfect student.” If my English teacher
asked for a five page minimum essay, I would give them ten. If my math teacher wants to see my
work, I will give them every single step of that problem. It just goes on and on… and it just gets more
and more stressful everyday. So, why do I , and people like me, give the maximum effort when the
minimum effort is rewarded equally? This is the question that I have asked myself over and over. That
is when I figured it out, and maybe this will help save you from this cycle too.
I saved myself from this mentality with one simple thought,one simple solution,one simple
question: I asked myself, “what is perfection?” It does not exist. Nothing can be perfect. Everything in
the world has at least one flaw. I could not expect myself to be perfect. There is a difference between
trying your best, and trying to be perfect. The “trying to be perfect” mentality is toxic. It is a poison.
Get rid of that personality. Just do your best, instead. Hey, if you get a B instead of an A, who cares?
You did your best. It is not perfect, but then again, nothing is. Next time, try your best again, and
again, and again. The satisfaction of trying your best and succeeding instead of stressing over being
perfect is one of the best feelings in the world. Get this into your head; do not try to be perfect, try to
be your best.

�Loving
Our
By Nicholas Kratz
World
Nature is something that will forever be around us. It’s the beautiful natural world that shows the harsh
reality and innocence of life. To us, a branch is a branch, but to a bird, it’s a foundation to their future home.
Nature is existential to all of us. It's a fundamental part of every being's livelihood. We may take it for granted,
which may be a hard feat to overcome, but it’s internally important for us.
We need to start looking at this world through a different lens. Our eyes. It takes only a minute to bask
in the world and enjoy it. There’s beauty in everything around us. Beauty is what our planet is founded on; even
some things that people may declare “ugly” are still beautiful because it’s what our world made. Looking outside
your window is a menial task which can benefit us greatly. To look out into the wild world and see what’s around
us. Simply looking upon the horizon with a smile can bring fortune into our life.
So I urge you to look at our world with shining eyes! It’s
a beautiful sight to see. The bright green grass flowing through
the wind of summer, the fallen leaves of fall, the bright snow
of winter, the blooming flowers of spring. It’s all a part of our
natural world. You may hate the bright sun, the heat, the snow,
the dark clouds, the constant leaves all on the ground. But
internally the concept of renewal is beautiful. Our world is taking
that cycle and turning into a new one. It’s all part of a process
called life. Our planet grows and changes with us. We’re growing
up together.
We need to come together and look at our world with the
eyes a parent does a child. It’s a simple, naive thing that needs
nurturing. It’s up to us as humans living on this planet Earth to treat our planet with the love and respect it
deserves and needs. The more we take advantage of it, take it for granted, or simply trash it - the worse we make
everything.
If we treat our planet with love, it will treat us with love back. Our world won’t amount to anything if we
continue to hate each other or the planet. We all need to look into our horizons and make the change. A change
that can be a difficult task for us all, but doable nonetheless. We’re not built to last forever, but our planet is.
Nothing is easy in life, that’s certain. But going outside to take a walk and taking in the air, or just going outside
to read in the summer is a big step. Once you realize the world we’re in through enjoying our planet, YOU can
then take the next step towards becoming someone who cares for our planet. I believe we should all take time
to appreciate what we have and try to enjoy it. Realizing this first is a difficult shell to break out of. But life is
too short to not try. Sooner than we know it, we won’t be around anymore; but if we can establish a strong base
within our future generations because we did, then our planet's outcome can look strong. Whether or not we see
much change in our lifetime doesn’t mean what we can do is for not. But it means what’s to come: hope, beauty,
perseverance. Our planet can endure as long as we can.
Change begins within all of our souls. Be a strong person who tries to bring a good change to this world
because dooming our future generations will be detrimental for everyone. So next time you’re picking up garbage or recycling or just walking outside and thinking you’re not doing anything..
To the future world, you did everything.
We need to
come together
and look at our
world with the
eyes a parent
does a child.

�A Poem
By Jevahnie Hernandez
Why do we love?
We love knowing the pain will come
We love when they don’t
Why do we love?
We love to show our differences
We love to feel whole
Love is something we can’t control
Love comes with tears, pain and lies
But true love?
True love causes happiness through your darkest times
This type of love doesn't have to be towards another person
True love comes when you accept yourself
When that happens, it will never leave

�A UB Student’s Take
on Colorism
By Giselle Aguilar
Whilst there are many different types of discrimination, a big one that gets ignored daily is colorism, or
sometimes referred to as, “shadeism.” Colorism is a form of racism happening within cultural communities
where people are prejudiced against another person’s skin color. Our society overlooks the effects colorism
could have on a person, just as much as any form of racism often is. This is especially seen in communities
where races are intertwined and, what many other people call, “mixed” their race with another. Within these
communities of people, it is not unheard of for someone of two different races to be not able to fit into either
one; even more so if their skin color isn’t seen as a “perfect shade” according to the standards of said races.
“Beautiful, caramel skin” is the standard many Hispanics/
Latinos have placed upon themselves. Within this
community of people, if you’re too dark, you’re often
looked down upon for being dark skinned. Sadly
enough, having a darker skin complexion in certain
communities can mean you’re ugly. In these certain cases,
the person you truly are doesn’t seem to matter when it
comes to your beauty. The same could be said for light
skinned people in a culture where they don’t meet the
expectations. No one should have to prove their own
race to society itself, especially to their own culture.
No one should
have to prove
their own
race to society
itself, especially
to their own
culture.
In retrospect, more light should
be shared on colorism within our own
communities. It is important to recognize
this as soon as possible so we can begin the
process to improve ourselves as a society. We
shouldn’t base our standards of being any
race based on one’s skin color, nor should
we let it determine one’s beauty. At the
end of the day, a person’s value and worth
should not be determined by their skin
color, especially in their own ethnic group.

�Who is Behind
Upward Bound?
By Jessica Graziano
Ms.Abraham, the current Director of Upward Bound, was an Upward Bound Wilkes University alumni and
Mansfield Trio alumni. She has worked to aid several other TRIO programs, and joinedUpward Bound Wilkes
University, all to help students on a closer level. She is working towards making change within the program, to
further enhance the student experience and set them up to success at a college ready level. Mrs.Abraham hopes
to have an area on campus solely for Upward Bound students to feel comfortable.
Ms.Robinson, the Academic Coordinator of Upward Bound, was actually also an Upward Bound Wilkes
University alumni, class of 2018. She became a TC, Tutor Counselor, for the summer program unexpectedly,
and enjoyed the atmosphere and cause of the program. She has since been honored to help the young minds of
Upward Bound, and enjoys seeing the brilliance of their thoughts. Ms.Robinson wishes to amplify the students
thoughts and ideas, and help students have a say in the world around us. Thus, giving students a strong sense of
self and understanding of the paths college, and beyond, has to offer.
Mr.Murphy, the College Coordinator of Upward Bound, is the third alumni of the Upward Bound Wilkes
University program on staff, graduating as the class of 2016. He stayed with Wilkes and the program throughout
college. After being a TC in the summer program, he applied to Upward Bound as a staff member. Since then
Mr.Murphy has been, as he says, “in the progress of changing the world” through the Upward Bound program.
Yielding time, he aids in making this program beneficial for the students, socially and academically. Mr.Murphy
hopes to one day have a dedicated space for the Upward Bound students on campus with more resources to aid
students in need.
Mrs.Nolan, the Office Coordinator of Upward Bound, is the only staff member who is not an Upward Bound,
nor TRIO, alumni. However, she had had a long career at General Hospital, in Wilkes-Barre, before joining
the Upward Bound Program at Wilkes University. Mrs.Nolan yields time to the program for the students to be
able to succeed and bloom during their time with UB. Mrs.Nolan helps students have a good understanding of
college prep in the sense of communication and growth as people. She hopes to offer the program to a larger
demographic of students, to thus be able to help a larger quantity of students.

��Parental Control
By Hayley Harris
Growing up is realizing your parents were never the bad guys. They didn’t make you stay at home
to torture you. Your parents wanted you safe and all they knew was the world around us was and still is
always changing in dangerous ways but inside the house is safe. As your guardians they are responsible for
school so of course they won’t let you skip. They didn’t take your stuff to make it feel like you were dying.
Your mother took the stuff you liked to teach you a lesson and keep you from being spoiled. A child not
disciplined in some way will be spoiled and always
think they are right. These are the same kids that
are told “if you have nothing nice to say don’t say
anything at all”. They will play the victim and try to
blame everything going wrong in their life on their
parents. Only you control your life and have the
power to fix or change it in any way.
Your parents are only there to guide you
and be there when you need them. From your first
steps to dropping you off at college every moment
is meaningful to them. They teach you to walk it
off when you get hit with a softball. Parents always
have the same phrase growing up, “kill them with
kindness”, because as an adult you need to be able
to let go of what others say. The only opinion of
yourself that matters is your own.
“You can not love others if you don’t love
yourself ”. If your mood is terrible, you’re going to

reflect that on others. Friends come and go but that
is no reason to push them away faster. The only person that will stay in your life, indefinitely, is yourself.
There is always a possibility that someone will leave.
As a kid you get your hopes up, as an adult you let your hopes fade away. As a teenager you think
you know the world around you but you don’t. You don’t know anything yet. Nothing about bills or taxes.
The stress of making it on your own without your parents to cradle you. If you run back to them, you’ll
be a failure. As a young adult you learn to cope with failure and often find yourself wishing to get those
younger years back. Quietly wishing to yourself that you never
wished to age faster.

Butterfly..Angel..Demon
By Jazmine Trathen
Fly
Even if your wing is broken,
Even if your lungs can’t hold anymore air,
Even if you feel numb,
Even if the rain stays and the sun never comes back out,
Even when you are down on your knees,
Fly; so high that they will be damned if they forget
Your will to fight
But never let it go to your head
So Fly,
My butterfly; My angel; My demon
Whichever you are;
Fly
Because the sun can’t shine without rain
And flowers can’t grow without water.
14
The rain falling faster and faster
My mind was at ease
It's quiet; peaceful; it's dangerous
Because it’s so addicting
The quiet and the peacefulness
Come knocking on my windows;
Begging to be let in; to be heard
But yet I can't seem to get passed
The gray and white skies;
like a tie-dye
Bleeding, bleeding together
Now the sky doesn't seem so scary
It seems at peace
With the storms
It’s created
Her Storm
By Jazmine Trathen
Her story is not as over as she thinks
It's just begun
The storm isn’t yet over but the sun is starting to shine;
Through the dark clouds,
The rain has stopped
For the time being; you see no tears in her eyes
But yet they hold her story,
Her storm,
Her dark secrets
That the world around her can’t see.
�What’s it like being a
Cyber Student in 2023?
By David Howell
Photo accessed from PBS Education
During the third quarter of the 2022-2023 school year, I decided that my best course of action would be
to switch to full time cyber. I chose this option because I felt like I was alone in my classes. I felt like I didn't have
any friends, and that my courses were too boring to sit through. I also wanted the opportunity to get a full time
job, because my parents were having trouble paying their bills. Many people have better reasons for switching to
cyber, but those were mine.
Now to answer the question, What is it like to be a cyber student in 2023?
Well, it straight up sucks! Point blank.
Let me clarify- If you have the patience and fortitude to sit through hours of school work in a lonely dark
room, cyber provides you just the right amount of brain candy to do so; but, if you're someone like me, then
expect to be open-jawed at the amount of work they expect you to do. The program my school uses for cyber
is called “Edgenuity.” They use very old videos to teach you “modern” topics. By “very old” I mean very old. The
webcam quality is about 140,p and the mics sound like they've been waterboarded. To prove the age of the videos
used, let me provide you with an example…
In one of my lessons, the woman in the video was talking about gothic architecture. As an example of one
of these buildings, she pulled up a picture of Notre Dame. She then went on to say that the building still stands
perfectly today. Notre Dame burnt down in 2019! Now that might not seem “old”, but remember that a fire took
place almost 5 years ago at this cathedral. the videos, and their lessons, haven't been updated for at least 5 years.
So I cannot help but ask - How am I supposed to learn modern world history when the videos were filmed before I
was born?
So - Would I recommend cyber to a dear friend? Depends. I wouldn't say cyber doesn’t offer anything,
because it offers the most difficult classes I have ever taken in my highschool career. At the same time though,
with no teachers present, I can’t really say all your questions are answered.
Will I ever take cyber again? Maybe. I did make a lot of money from working my job, and I had much
more time to take care of and enjoy myself, but I never felt like I truly learned my material.
If I had to say one final thing, it would be that I enjoyed my time in cyber and I learned a lot about myself. If you ever get the chance, you should try it for yourself to see if you like it or not.

�Clean Your Community
By Kayla Nash
16
When regarding the word pollution, the minds of people correlate this word with the thought of global
warming. Global warming is a phenomenon that is a severe consequence to the air pollution that occurs in our
world, but other forms and outcomes of pollution aren't taken into account as promptly. Though all pollution
is not something that we, as a community, can overlook, many choose to entirely disregard it because it doesn’t
concern them. But how can this pollution not concern you if it is occurring right in front of you?
One of the major forms of pollution in our community can be
seen on the ground we walk on or in most cases drive on: land
pollution. People of our community shrug off the image of the trash
and waste that is dumped by others, turning a blind eye. They often
believe since they are not the ones committing the action of littering
and dumping their trash that the pollution happening isn't their
responsibility. Though this isn't true. Our community is directly
responsible for letting the waste sit and accumulate with more
people contributing towards it since no repercussions are given. By
ignoring the pollution, you are actively taking a role in letting our
planet and community become dirty and even producing bacterial
diseases if left neglected.
Many individuals have achieved the mindset to play their part by
not littering or discarding their waste in orderly fashion. Though
this is a step that the plants, animals, and fellow members of our
community can appreciate, we shouldn’t stop at these actions.
Help our community become as beautiful as it was originally given
Photo taken by Kayla Nash in Hanover Twp. to us without all the wrappers and plastic thrown on the ground
that supplies us with nature and a food source to us and other beings on the planet we share. Take action with
your community to help return the home we inhabit to its prior state and get back the pristine environment as
it once was. Keep the pollution from becoming irreversible
and recycle the materials that you can. Maintaining sanitary
conditions can positively impact not only the environment, but
also the people and things that we share it with.
Though this task may seem tedious, it isn’t much
different from cleaning your own home. There are days when
people, especially parents, may feel the burden of cleaning
up after oneself or others. However, it still needs to be done.
The task of the dreadful cleaning of your home may not be a
weekly occurrence, but it still takes place to an extent every
day by picking up trash left behind or dishes from a tasty meal.
Helping maintain the cleanliness that you have in your home
to the community that your home dwells in. By cleaning up
litter and waste that nature man leaves polluting the land,
air, and water, we can showcase our beautiful community to
anyone that passes by or perhaps stays some time. With a clean
environment, we can feel good going into the world every
morning with a fresh outlook for our everyday goals we have
for ourselves.

�Wrong Time Period
By Jazmine Trathen
This life isn't for everyone as they say,
As I sit with my phone writing and listening to all the poems that fill my head.
I daydream if I had been born in another time;
Would that life be more for me?
I suppose I could thrive better there,
I'm talking about the time when they wore long skirts and puffy shirts that make you look like a queen;
Where the dresses were so elegant and pure.
The times when you're mother would wake you up in the morning with breakfast and you have to walk to school,
When there was only one teacher to teach you all the major subjects you needed.
The time when every girl wore dresses to class just to show off how beautiful they were.
The time when there was a take notice board, and where there weren't any phones nor anything like that.
Where it was just you and your books,
I would so love to be born in that time when the crease of this reality wasn't even thought of.
Where every song had a bigger meaning than what it was to give,
And where love was so beautiful and pure.
I could thrive in a time like that but here in this reality unfortunately I was born; in this reality where no one is meant to
thrive.
So how does one survive in this unsurvivable time where no one was meant to thrive and live like there's no tomorrow?
A Lost Parent
By Jazmine Trathen
I do not understand,
I never thought of losing a parent so young.
Nor, did I want to;
But now seeing how cruel this world is for taking you away.
Why must life take you?
I'm only 16..
I've had more death than I can count;
But yours will be the most painful.
I will miss you;
I don't think life will be the same without you're beautiful soul mom
And I'll forever miss our music sessions in the car.
R.I.P Mom

My guardian angel, that was taken too soon…
Snow
By Jazmine Trathen
The moon, on the snow, brings life
To those who feel less of the living
A breath of the snowy air
Is freeing to my troubled soul
Snow is sound canceling to; our messy heads
But even when there’s snow there’s happiness even if it
Leaves as fast as it came
Breathe; relax; it’s okay
Life isn’t always as it seems but remember only you
Stops.

ideas. It is only natural that you may want to change your
career to something you’re more passionate about and that’s better suited to your interests.
Sometimes, careers can be chosen based on your individual skills as well. Just as with the
previous example, if you are good with math, you may choose to become an accountant, because your
skills are best suited for that job. While you may still appreciate medicine, you could always study it as a
hobby.
It is also important to note that job availability and finances can affect how you choose a path.
In any case, you should be encouraged to change career paths as often as you need to make sure you
are building yourself a bright and happy future. Changing career paths shouldn’t be viewed as being
indecisive, but rather as a growth opportunity for your potential into a field that is suited for you.

�Trying to be the Perfect Student
By Giovanni Rodriguez
Listen. Do you find yourself overworking because you want to have perfect grades? Maybe
you ask your friends about what they did on an assignment and they said they basically did the bare
minimum and earned a 100. However, you tried your hardest on that assignment and completely
stressed over it to get the same score. You received that 100, but then it does not satisfy you because
everyone else received the same grade without all of the effort .
Well, my friends, I can relate.
Ever since elementary school, I have always been a straight A student. School has usually come
easy to me, so maintaining those grades has never been a problem. Having this image for so long, it
is a habit to use everything in my power to keep myself as the “perfect student.” If my English teacher
asked for a five page minimum essay, I would give them ten. If my math teacher wants to see my
work, I will give them every single step of that problem. It just goes on and on… and it just gets more
and more stressful everyday. So, why do I , and people like me, give the maximum effort when the
minimum effort is rewarded equally? This is the question that I have asked myself over and over. That
is when I figured it out, and maybe this will help save you from this cycle too.
I saved myself from this mentality with one simple thought,one simple solution,one simple
question: I asked myself, “what is perfection?” It does not exist. Nothing can be perfect. Everything in
the world has at least one flaw. I could not expect myself to be perfect. There is a difference between
trying your best, and trying to be perfect. The “trying to be perfect” mentality is toxic. It is a poison.
Get rid of that personality. Just do your best, instead. Hey, if you get a B instead of an A, who cares?
You did your best. It is not perfect, but then again, nothing is. Next time, try your best again, and
again, and again. The satisfaction of trying your best and succeeding instead of stressing over being
perfect is one of the best feelings in the world. Get this into your head; do not try to be perfect, try to
be your best.

�Loving
Our
By Nicholas Kratz
World
Nature is something that will forever be around us. It’s the beautiful natural world that shows the harsh
reality and innocence of life. To us, a branch is a branch, but to a bird, it’s a foundation to their future home.
Nature is existential to all of us. It's a fundamental part of every being's livelihood. We may take it for granted,
which may be a hard feat to overcome, but it’s internally important for us.
We need to start looking at this world through a different lens. Our eyes. It takes only a minute to bask
in the world and enjoy it. There’s beauty in everything around us. Beauty is what our planet is founded on; even
some things that people may declare “ugly” are still beautiful because it’s what our world made. Looking outside
your window is a menial task which can benefit us greatly. To look out into the wild world and see what’s around
us. Simply looking upon the horizon with a smile can bring fortune into our life.
So I urge you to look at our world with shining eyes! It’s
a beautiful sight to see. The bright green grass flowing through
the wind of summer, the fallen leaves of fall, the bright snow
of winter, the blooming flowers of spring. It’s all a part of our
natural world. You may hate the bright sun, the heat, the snow,
the dark clouds, the constant leaves all on the ground. But
internally the concept of renewal is beautiful. Our world is taking
that cycle and turning into a new one. It’s all part of a process
called life. Our planet grows and changes with us. We’re growing
up together.
We need to come together and look at our world with the
eyes a parent does a child. It’s a simple, naive thing that needs
nurturing. It’s up to us as humans living on this planet Earth to treat our planet with the love and respect it
deserves and needs. The more we take advantage of it, take it for granted, or simply trash it - the worse we make
everything.
If we treat our planet with love, it will treat us with love back. Our world won’t amount to anything if we
continue to hate each other or the planet. We all need to look into our horizons and make the change. A change
that can be a difficult task for us all, but doable nonetheless. We’re not built to last forever, but our planet is.
Nothing is easy in life, that’s certain. But going outside to take a walk and taking in the air, or just going outside
to read in the summer is a big step. Once you realize the world we’re in through enjoying our planet, YOU can
then take the next step towards becoming someone who cares for our planet. I believe we should all take time
to appreciate what we have and try to enjoy it. Realizing this first is a difficult shell to break out of. But life is
too short to not try. Sooner than we know it, we won’t be around anymore; but if we can establish a strong base
within our future generations because we did, then our planet's outcome can look strong. Whether or not we see
much change in our lifetime doesn’t mean what we can do is for not. But it means what’s to come: hope, beauty,
perseverance. Our planet can endure as long as we can.
Change begins within all of our souls. Be a strong person who tries to bring a good change to this world
because dooming our future generations will be detrimental for everyone. So next time you’re picking up garbage or recycling or just walking outside and thinking you’re not doing anything..
To the future world, you did everything.
We need to
come together
and look at our
world with the
eyes a parent
does a child.

�A Poem
By Jevahnie Hernandez
Why do we love?
We love knowing the pain will come
We love when they don’t
Why do we love?
We love to show our differences
We love to feel whole
Love is something we can’t control
Love comes with tears, pain and lies
But true love?
True love causes happiness through your darkest times
This type of love doesn't have to be towards another person
True love comes when you accept yourself
When that happens, it will never leave

�A UB Student’s Take
on Colorism
By Giselle Aguilar
Whilst there are many different types of discrimination, a big one that gets ignored daily is colorism, or
sometimes referred to as, “shadeism.” Colorism is a form of racism happening within cultural communities
where people are prejudiced against another person’s skin color. Our society overlooks the effects colorism
could have on a person, just as much as any form of racism often is. This is especially seen in communities
where races are intertwined and, what many other people call, “mixed” their race with another. Within these
communities of people, it is not unheard of for someone of two different races to be not able to fit into either
one; even more so if their skin color isn’t seen as a “perfect shade” according to the standards of said races.
“Beautiful, caramel skin” is the standard many Hispanics/
Latinos have placed upon themselves. Within this
community of people, if you’re too dark, you’re often
looked down upon for being dark skinned. Sadly
enough, having a darker skin complexion in certain
communities can mean you’re ugly. In these certain cases,
the person you truly are doesn’t seem to matter when it
comes to your beauty. The same could be said for light
skinned people in a culture where they don’t meet the
expectations. No one should have to prove their own
race to society itself, especially to their own culture.
No one should
have to prove
their own
race to society
itself, especially
to their own
culture.
In retrospect, more light should
be shared on colorism within our own
communities. It is important to recognize
this as soon as possible so we can begin the
process to improve ourselves as a society. We
shouldn’t base our standards of being any
race based on one’s skin color, nor should
we let it determine one’s beauty. At the
end of the day, a person’s value and worth
should not be determined by their skin
color, especially in their own ethnic group.

�Who is Behind
Upward Bound?
By Jessica Graziano
Ms.Abraham, the current Director of Upward Bound, was an Upward Bound Wilkes University alumni and
Mansfield Trio alumni. She has worked to aid several other TRIO programs, and joinedUpward Bound Wilkes
University, all to help students on a closer level. She is working towards making change within the program, to
further enhance the student experience and set them up to success at a college ready level. Mrs.Abraham hopes
to have an area on campus solely for Upward Bound students to feel comfortable.
Ms.Robinson, the Academic Coordinator of Upward Bound, was actually also an Upward Bound Wilkes
University alumni, class of 2018. She became a TC, Tutor Counselor, for the summer program unexpectedly,
and enjoyed the atmosphere and cause of the program. She has since been honored to help the young minds of
Upward Bound, and enjoys seeing the brilliance of their thoughts. Ms.Robinson wishes to amplify the students
thoughts and ideas, and help students have a say in the world around us. Thus, giving students a strong sense of
self and understanding of the paths college, and beyond, has to offer.
Mr.Murphy, the College Coordinator of Upward Bound, is the third alumni of the Upward Bound Wilkes
University program on staff, graduating as the class of 2016. He stayed with Wilkes and the program throughout
college. After being a TC in the summer program, he applied to Upward Bound as a staff member. Since then
Mr.Murphy has been, as he says, “in the progress of changing the world” through the Upward Bound program.
Yielding time, he aids in making this program beneficial for the students, socially and academically. Mr.Murphy
hopes to one day have a dedicated space for the Upward Bound students on campus with more resources to aid
students in need.
Mrs.Nolan, the Office Coordinator of Upward Bound, is the only staff member who is not an Upward Bound,
nor TRIO, alumni. However, she had had a long career at General Hospital, in Wilkes-Barre, before joining
the Upward Bound Program at Wilkes University. Mrs.Nolan yields time to the program for the students to be
able to succeed and bloom during their time with UB. Mrs.Nolan helps students have a good understanding of
college prep in the sense of communication and growth as people. She hopes to offer the program to a larger
demographic of students, to thus be able to help a larger quantity of students.

��Parental Control
By Hayley Harris
Growing up is realizing your parents were never the bad guys. They didn’t make you stay at home
to torture you. Your parents wanted you safe and all they knew was the world around us was and still is
always changing in dangerous ways but inside the house is safe. As your guardians they are responsible for
school so of course they won’t let you skip. They didn’t take your stuff to make it feel like you were dying.
Your mother took the stuff you liked to teach you a lesson and keep you from being spoiled. A child not
disciplined in some way will be spoiled and always
think they are right. These are the same kids that
are told “if you have nothing nice to say don’t say
anything at all”. They will play the victim and try to
blame everything going wrong in their life on their
parents. Only you control your life and have the
power to fix or change it in any way.
Your parents are only there to guide you
and be there when you need them. From your first
steps to dropping you off at college every moment
is meaningful to them. They teach you to walk it
off when you get hit with a softball. Parents always
have the same phrase growing up, “kill them with
kindness”, because as an adult you need to be able
to let go of what others say. The only opinion of
yourself that matters is your own.
“You can not love others if you don’t love
yourself ”. If your mood is terrible, you’re going to

reflect that on others. Friends come and go but that
is no reason to push them away faster. The only person that will stay in your life, indefinitely, is yourself.
There is always a possibility that someone will leave.
As a kid you get your hopes up, as an adult you let your hopes fade away. As a teenager you think
you know the world around you but you don’t. You don’t know anything yet. Nothing about bills or taxes.
The stress of making it on your own without your parents to cradle you. If you run back to them, you’ll
be a failure. As a young adult you learn to cope with failure and often find yourself wishing to get those
younger years back. Quietly wishing to yourself that you never
wished to age faster.

Butterfly..Angel..Demon
By Jazmine Trathen
Fly
Even if your wing is broken,
Even if your lungs can’t hold anymore air,
Even if you feel numb,
Even if the rain stays and the sun never comes back out,
Even when you are down on your knees,
Fly; so high that they will be damned if they forget
Your will to fight
But never let it go to your head
So Fly,
My butterfly; My angel; My demon
Whichever you are;
Fly
Because the sun can’t shine without rain
And flowers can’t grow without water.
14
The rain falling faster and faster
My mind was at ease
It's quiet; peaceful; it's dangerous
Because it’s so addicting
The quiet and the peacefulness
Come knocking on my windows;
Begging to be let in; to be heard
But yet I can't seem to get passed
The gray and white skies;
like a tie-dye
Bleeding, bleeding together
Now the sky doesn't seem so scary
It seems at peace
With the storms
It’s created
Her Storm
By Jazmine Trathen
Her story is not as over as she thinks
It's just begun
The storm isn’t yet over but the sun is starting to shine;
Through the dark clouds,
The rain has stopped
For the time being; you see no tears in her eyes
But yet they hold her story,
Her storm,
Her dark secrets
That the world around her can’t see.
�What’s it like being a
Cyber Student in 2023?
By David Howell
Photo accessed from PBS Education
During the third quarter of the 2022-2023 school year, I decided that my best course of action would be
to switch to full time cyber. I chose this option because I felt like I was alone in my classes. I felt like I didn't have
any friends, and that my courses were too boring to sit through. I also wanted the opportunity to get a full time
job, because my parents were having trouble paying their bills. Many people have better reasons for switching to
cyber, but those were mine.
Now to answer the question, What is it like to be a cyber student in 2023?
Well, it straight up sucks! Point blank.
Let me clarify- If you have the patience and fortitude to sit through hours of school work in a lonely dark
room, cyber provides you just the right amount of brain candy to do so; but, if you're someone like me, then
expect to be open-jawed at the amount of work they expect you to do. The program my school uses for cyber
is called “Edgenuity.” They use very old videos to teach you “modern” topics. By “very old” I mean very old. The
webcam quality is about 140,p and the mics sound like they've been waterboarded. To prove the age of the videos
used, let me provide you with an example…
In one of my lessons, the woman in the video was talking about gothic architecture. As an example of one
of these buildings, she pulled up a picture of Notre Dame. She then went on to say that the building still stands
perfectly today. Notre Dame burnt down in 2019! Now that might not seem “old”, but remember that a fire took
place almost 5 years ago at this cathedral. the videos, and their lessons, haven't been updated for at least 5 years.
So I cannot help but ask - How am I supposed to learn modern world history when the videos were filmed before I
was born?
So - Would I recommend cyber to a dear friend? Depends. I wouldn't say cyber doesn’t offer anything,
because it offers the most difficult classes I have ever taken in my highschool career. At the same time though,
with no teachers present, I can’t really say all your questions are answered.
Will I ever take cyber again? Maybe. I did make a lot of money from working my job, and I had much
more time to take care of and enjoy myself, but I never felt like I truly learned my material.
If I had to say one final thing, it would be that I enjoyed my time in cyber and I learned a lot about myself. If you ever get the chance, you should try it for yourself to see if you like it or not.

�Clean Your Community
By Kayla Nash
16
When regarding the word pollution, the minds of people correlate this word with the thought of global
warming. Global warming is a phenomenon that is a severe consequence to the air pollution that occurs in our
world, but other forms and outcomes of pollution aren't taken into account as promptly. Though all pollution
is not something that we, as a community, can overlook, many choose to entirely disregard it because it doesn’t
concern them. But how can this pollution not concern you if it is occurring right in front of you?
One of the major forms of pollution in our community can be
seen on the ground we walk on or in most cases drive on: land
pollution. People of our community shrug off the image of the trash
and waste that is dumped by others, turning a blind eye. They often
believe since they are not the ones committing the action of littering
and dumping their trash that the pollution happening isn't their
responsibility. Though this isn't true. Our community is directly
responsible for letting the waste sit and accumulate with more
people contributing towards it since no repercussions are given. By
ignoring the pollution, you are actively taking a role in letting our
planet and community become dirty and even producing bacterial
diseases if left neglected.
Many individuals have achieved the mindset to play their part by
not littering or discarding their waste in orderly fashion. Though
this is a step that the plants, animals, and fellow members of our
community can appreciate, we shouldn’t stop at these actions.
Help our community become as beautiful as it was originally given
Photo taken by Kayla Nash in Hanover Twp. to us without all the wrappers and plastic thrown on the ground
that supplies us with nature and a food source to us and other beings on the planet we share. Take action with
your community to help return the home we inhabit to its prior state and get back the pristine environment as
it once was. Keep the pollution from becoming irreversible
and recycle the materials that you can. Maintaining sanitary
conditions can positively impact not only the environment, but
also the people and things that we share it with.
Though this task may seem tedious, it isn’t much
different from cleaning your own home. There are days when
people, especially parents, may feel the burden of cleaning
up after oneself or others. However, it still needs to be done.
The task of the dreadful cleaning of your home may not be a
weekly occurrence, but it still takes place to an extent every
day by picking up trash left behind or dishes from a tasty meal.
Helping maintain the cleanliness that you have in your home
to the community that your home dwells in. By cleaning up
litter and waste that nature man leaves polluting the land,
air, and water, we can showcase our beautiful community to
anyone that passes by or perhaps stays some time. With a clean
environment, we can feel good going into the world every
morning with a fresh outlook for our everyday goals we have
for ourselves.

�Wrong Time Period
By Jazmine Trathen
This life isn't for everyone as they say,
As I sit with my phone writing and listening to all the poems that fill my head.
I daydream if I had been born in another time;
Would that life be more for me?
I suppose I could thrive better there,
I'm talking about the time when they wore long skirts and puffy shirts that make you look like a queen;
Where the dresses were so elegant and pure.
The times when you're mother would wake you up in the morning with breakfast and you have to walk to school,
When there was only one teacher to teach you all the major subjects you needed.
The time when every girl wore dresses to class just to show off how beautiful they were.
The time when there was a take notice board, and where there weren't any phones nor anything like that.
Where it was just you and your books,
I would so love to be born in that time when the crease of this reality wasn't even thought of.
Where every song had a bigger meaning than what it was to give,
And where love was so beautiful and pure.
I could thrive in a time like that but here in this reality unfortunately I was born; in this reality where no one is meant to
thrive.
So how does one survive in this unsurvivable time where no one was meant to thrive and live like there's no tomorrow?
A Lost Parent
By Jazmine Trathen
I do not understand,
I never thought of losing a parent so young.
Nor, did I want to;
But now seeing how cruel this world is for taking you away.
Why must life take you?
I'm only 16..
I've had more death than I can count;
But yours will be the most painful.
I will miss you;
I don't think life will be the same without you're beautiful soul mom
And I'll forever miss our music sessions in the car.
R.I.P Mom

My guardian angel, that was taken too soon…
Snow
By Jazmine Trathen
The moon, on the snow, brings life
To those who feel less of the living
A breath of the snowy air
Is freeing to my troubled soul
Snow is sound canceling to; our messy heads
But even when there’s snow there’s happiness even if it
Leaves as fast as it came
Breathe; relax; it’s okay
Life isn’t always as it seems but remember only you
Stops.

�Foreword
GREG CANT, PH.D
PRESIDENT, WILKES UNIVERSITY
�Wilkes University has been the proud home of the Sordoni Art Gallery since it first opened its doors
50 years ago. Since then, thousands of guests have admired outstanding exhibitions that showcase
art in its many forms. From its opening show in 1973, which featured the paintings of Wilkes-Barre,
born George Catlin, to more recent collections including works by Andy Warhol, Pete Souza, and
orman Rockwell, the Sordoni Art Gallery always inspires.
The Sordoni has always been more than just an art gallery to Wilkes University. A non-traditional
classroom, the Sordoni Art Gallery encourages students to ask questions, test boundaries and think
critically about the world around them. For some Wilkes students - many of whom are the first
in their families to attend a four-year college - the Sordoni Art Gallery offers the completely new
experience of being immersed in the visual arts. This is a life-changing moment for these students,
and we take great pride in having such a valuable resource on our campus.
The Sordoni Art Gallery sits at the cross section of campus and community and adds to the vibrancy
of our downtown Wilkes-Barre community. This connection has always been an important part of
the Sordoni's mission and we are proud to continue - and expand - our presence in the region.
For all of these reasons, we remain grateful to Andrew J. Sordoni, III and the Sordoni family for
their unwavering support of the gallery and Wilkes University. We believe that this show The One
Rose: Celebrating the Life and Legacy of Rose O'Neill (another Wilkes-Barre native) is a wonderful way
to celebrate the Gallery's first 50 years and we look forward to celebrating many more decades of
exceptional and inspiring exhibitions at the Sordoni Art Gallery with you.

EXHIBITION CURATOR
Celebrating the Sordoni Art Gallery's golden anniversary warranted an exhibition worthy of such
a landmark. In the spirit of our first exhibition centered on Wilkes-Barre native, George Catlin, we
opted to honor another Wilkes-Barre native, Rose O'Neill, born here in 1874.
Known as the "mother of Kewpies," Rose O'Neill was so much more - artist and illustrator, writer and
poet, philanthropist, entrepreneur, and suffragist. Although born here in the Diamond City, O' eill
spent much of her life in the central United States. She owned property in Connecticut, New York
City, Capri, and her beloved homestead, Bonniebrook, in the Missouri Ozarks. She made her mark on
the world and arguably, history. Before Mickey Mouse, there were the Kewpies.
To the many I worked with to realize the exhibition, she is their "one Rose." Remembering Rose
would not be possible without the tireless efforts of so many people dedicated to her legacy. For me,
it has been a joy and pleasure to get to know these people throughout the project and I owe them a
tremendous debt of gratitude for assisting with the exhibition. Thank you to the several institutions
and collectors who loaned artwork for The One Rose: Celebrating the Life and Legacy ofRose O'Neill.
They are Sarah Buhr and Kyle Climore at the Springfield Art Museum, Susan Scott and Gayle Green
at Bonniebrook Historical Society, Museum and Homestead, Susan Wilson, Susan Strauss at the
International Rose O' eill Club Foundation, Emily Zeman at the Andrew County Museum, Noreen
Tillotson at the LeRoy Historical Society / Jell-O Museum, Annette Sain at the Ralph Foster Museum at
the College of the Ozarks, Amanda Burdan and Sara Beuhler at the Brandywine Museum, Stephanie
Plunkett and Laurie Norton Moffatt at the Norman Rockwell Museum, Meg Thomas at the Delaware
Art Museum, Wendy Pflug at the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library at Ohio State University, Skye Lacerte
at the Washington University at St. Louis Library and Collections, and Elizabeth Marecki Alberding at
the Kelly Collection of American Illustration.
The Sordoni Art Gallery is dedicated to academic excellence and this exhibition provided us the
opportunity to further the scholarship and study of Rose O'Neill. I was privileged to spend time at the
State Historical Society of Missouri and the Missouri State University Archives to read O'Neill's papers.
Thank you to Hayley Frizzle-Green at SHSMO and Tracey Gieselman-France at MSUA. In addition,
the Luzerne County Historical Society was a wonderful resource for both me and my colleagues who
contributed essays to the catalog. Thank you Amanda Fontenova for your assistance.
�I also want to thank my colleagues who also contributed essays to the catalog. Rose O'Neill made vast
contributions to our culture and I was honored to have such meaningful scholarship as part of our
publication. Thank you Dr. Diane Wenger, professor emeritus of history at Wilkes University, and Jenny
Shank, award-winning author. This is also another opportunity to thank Sarah Buhr, curator of art at the
Springfield Art Museum.
Celebrations such as this are not possible without the support and guidance of many. Thank you to the
Sordoni Art Gallery Advisory Commission for their dedication and in particular, Ken Marquis
for his continued support and advice. I also want to thank my colleagues on campus: Melissa Carestia,
assistant director of the Sordoni Art Gallery, Dr. Paul Riggs, dean of the College of Arts & Sciences, Kevin
Boyle, vice president of Advancement, and of course, Dr. Greg Cant, president of Wilkes University.
One thing I always say is that we in higher education are in the business of ensuring our students' success.
I couldn't be more proud to have a former Sordoni Gallery design fellowship alumnus contribute her
talents to the project. Thank you,Jessica Morandi, for your ongoing enthusiasm for the gallery. She sets
a fine example for what students can achieve. I also want to thank the current student gallery staff, in
particular, this year's design fellow, Dylan Kofie.
Finally, none of this would have been possible without the support, encouragement, and interest of
Andrew Sordoni. Thank you for providing the opportunity to do such important work here at the gallery.
In addition, I would also like to thank the Sordoni Foundation for its support of the curatorial project.
Rose O' eill can be quoted as saying, "I have a thrilling hope that women are going to do something
glorious in the arts. It is my passionate conviction." As women artists have struggled to be recognized
throughout art history, I am honored that as part of our golden anniversary, we are able to celebrate what
"glorious contributions" Rose O' eill has made for our culture.
�About
ROSE O'NEILL
American
illustrator
of the early
twentieth
century, was
a woman of many accomplishments. She was the :first
woman illustrator for Puck magazine, the leading men's
magazine of the late-19th century, entertaining its readers
with considerable satire and political commentary; creator
of the Kewpie Doll, the subject of a major merchandising
campaign, which made her fortune; activist for women's
suffrage; and accomplished artist and sculptor featured in
exhibitions in Paris (1921) and New York (1922).
Rose O'Neill,
Rose O'Neill was born in the Diamond City, Wilkes-Barre,
Pennsylvania, on June 25, 1874. She was the daughter of a
Civil War veteran, bookseller, and businessman William
Patrick O'Neill and schoolteacher Alice Asenath Cecilia
Smith O'Neill, otherwise known as "Meemie." Inspired
by Thoreau's newly published "Walden," they were
an unconventional family who left Wilkes-Barre for a
homestead in Nebraska. Her father determined that Rose
would be educated in the arts and had aspirations for her
to be an actress or opera singer. Instead, Rose entered and
won a drawing contest in the Omaha Herald at the age of
13, marking a future in art.
�I I r work a an artist established O'Neill
a one of the wealthiest women of her era.
In fact, by 1914, she was the highest paid
woman illustrator in the United States and
th fir t artist to ever build a merchandising
mpire through her work, earning 1.6 million
dollar at the height of her popularity; over
36 million dollars by today's standards. The
Kewpies, a cartoon first printed in Ladies Home
journal in 1909, featured the cherub-faced
er ation and their antics. The Kewpies went
on to promote commercial products such as
olgate, Sears, Kellogg's Corn Flakes, and
Jcll-0. Her commercial success provided her
with the resources to own four properties: an
apartment in Washington Square in New
York City, an estate, Carabas Castle, in
We tport, Connecticut, a villa in Capri,
and her beloved Bonniebrook in the Ozark
Mountains of Missouri.
The Kewpies challenged the conventions of
g nder while encouraging people to "do good
cl d in a funny way;" however, the characters
did take on social cause . In support of
women' suffrage, the Kewpies donned aprons
to advocate for public support of women's
right to vote on posters for the National
American Women's Suffrage Association.
O' eill was no stranger to activism. Her first
job as an illustrator was for Puck magazine,
a publication infamous for political satire.
Her work challenged attitudes towards ethnic
stereotypes, dass discrimination, and race
during the height ofJim Crow.
The Lady in the White Veil (1909), Carda (1929),
and The Goblin Woman (1930). Her book of
poetry, The Master-Mistress, was published in
1922. She also wrote her autobiography
which was published posthumously in 1997
and reissued in 2022. In addition to writing,
she would also illustrate her books and those
of her second husband, Harry Leon·Wilson.
In contrast, her "Sweet Monsters," developed
in private alongside the Kewpies, were
contemplative and emotional figures
exploring mythology and the subconscious.
These drawings were a passion project
rumored to be under her mainstream
drawings on her drawing board. The monsters
were the subject of her gallery and museum
exhibitions, Galerie Devambez (1921),
Paris and Wildenstein Gallery (1922), ew
York, where she became equally respected
by curators as she was with editors in the
commercial world.
Indeed, O' eill experienced tremendous
financial success early in her career. She was
known to spread her wealth and support the
creativity of others. She surrounded herself
with creatives such as Witter Brynner, Kahlil
Gibran, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Martha
Graham, and many more. Her long-running
support of family and friends in addition
to the economic downturn of the 1930s led
to financial strain. ear the end of her life,
O' eill pursued several projects to regain her
commercial success. O'Neill passed away in
her nephew's home in Springfield, Missouri, in
1944 and is buried alongside members of her
family at her Bonniebrook estate.
O'Neill was not only an accomplished
artist but also a published author and poet.
Throughout her lifetime, she wrote four
gothic novels: The Loves of Edwy (1904),

"Whether We Are
Rich Or Poor, We
Can Love Each
Other The Same:"
THE O'NEILLS IN
WILKES-BARRE
BY DIANE WENGER, PH.D.
July 9, 1872, Wilkes-Barre was crowded as some
40,000 residents and visitors celebrated the
96th anniversary of U.S. independence and
the 100th birthday of the city's founding. A
highlight of the day was an enormous parade
featuring bands, fire departments, military units, and
over one hundred horse-drawn wagons representing local
business and industry. Rose O' eill's father, William Patrick
O'Neill,was in that procession. His real estate buggy was
"decorated with appropriate banners" and, according to an
observer, "the only agency of its kind which had the good
sense to show its colors." 1 The comment surely pleased
O 'Neill, but he also had other reasons to feel happy. Just a
few weeks earlier, on June 20, he and his wife had welcomed
their first child, [John] Hugh.
0n
�Indeed, O'Neill's prospects seemed bright. The previous April, after a
five-year courtship, he had married Alice Cecelie Asenath "Sena" Smith
of Fairmount, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania. 2 The couple traveled to
Philadelphia for the wedding and stayed in a suite at the Continental
Hotel before settling down in their new home on Meade Street in
Wilkes-Barre, about 10 blocks south of Main Street. 3 "Emerald Cottage"
was a country gothic bungalow with gingerbread trim, surrounded by
fruit trees and a garden. Inspired by a recent trip to Europe, O'Neill
hired an Italian artisan to decorate the ceiling of its octagonal parlor
with a fresco of cupids and wreaths; the local paper described the
property as "that romantic eyrie on Brewery Hill." 4
Rose's father was a native of Overton, Pennsylvania. After he was
discharged from the military in 1864, he relocated to Wilkes-Barre,
where his brother Daniel was a well-respected attorney. 5 By 1870 he
was operating a real estate firm, and also an auction, emigration and
exchange business on North Main Street. In 1873, he briefly went into
partnership with auctioneer W. E. (William) Whyte. The auction house
handled a variety of goods including art, books, household furnishings,
and, once, a large collection of sea shells. 6 In April 1874, O'Neill
adverti ed he had relocated (no mention of Whyte) to Public Square in
the center of the city. 7
OnJune 25, 1874, the O'Neills' second child, Cecelia Rose,
was born.
If O'Neill's star seemed to be ascending, Wilkes-Barre's clearly was
on the rise. It achieved city status in May 1871, and its first police
force formed in 1872. 8 Population in 1870 was 10,174, making it
the eleventh largest city in Pennsylvania. That figure had doubled
since 1860; it would double again by 1880. 9 The primary reason
for such dramatic growth was an influx of immigrants attracted
by the burgeoning mining industry. By 1875, Wyoming Valley coal
made up half of Pennsylvania's anthracite production, and the
resultant prosperity gave Wilkes-Barre the nickname "Diamond
City. "10 The importance of mining was evident in the centennial
parade, which included wagonloads of miners and breaker boys
(both groups were given the day off) and a "giant lump of coal"
weighing several tons.
As the coal industry expanded, so did transportation. Canal
and rail lines, carrying both coal and passengers, passed directly
through Wilkes-Barre, but trains soon made the mule-drawn
canal boats obsolete. For local travel, there were horse-drawn
street cars. Had the O'Neills wanted to take the children on a
river excursion, they could have bought tickets for the steamboat
Hendrick B. Wright, which, starting in late
1874, plied the Susquehanna between
Wilkes-Barre, Plymouth and Nanticoke. 11

a book store, but there is no mention of that in newspaper ads or city directories. On the auctions, see Times Leader Nov. 13, 1873, May 14, 1874 and Jan. 4, 1875.

�Another city attraction was the four-story Music Hall, WilkesBarre's "first genuine theater," erected in 1871 at West Market
and North River streets. 12 The Hall hosted serious entertainment
such as the Holman English Opera Company and lectures by
luminaries including Henry Ward Beecher and Mark Twain; on
the lighter side were burlesque and minstrel shows and novelties
such as Madame Zoe, "champion of the broad-sword" and Kate
Smith and her horse "Wonder." 13 As a bachelor, William attended
performances at the hall and it is quite likely he took Sena there
after their marriage. 14

In 1875 the O' eills encountered financial problems. In March
that year, Pat Sheahan, a New York emigration and foreign
exchange agent, ran a series of ads advising the public against
purchasing any of his drafts or tickets from William O'Neill.
O'Neill responded that he had to cover Sheahan's drafts because
British banks deemed them worthless. 15 As their situation
worsened, Sena told William it made no difference whether
they were rich or poor: "We can love each other the same. "16 A
bitter blow came in September when Emerald Cottage, along
with O' eill's land in Plains Township, was "seized and taken in
execution at the suit of William Hoover,Jr." 17 In November,
W. E. Whyte (W. H. 's son) sued to have the business
partnership officially dissolved. 18

[Letter from William P. O'Neill to Sena O'Neill, 187 6] Rose O'Neill Papers
(SPOO26); The State Historical Society of Missouri Research Center-Springfield
By May 1876, William was no longer in business in WilkesBarre. Rather, he was working in Philadelphia as a Centennial
Exposition guard; periodically he sent money home and
promised to "support [his] little family." 19 In spite of the
property lien, Sena stayed on in Emerald Cottage. Between
caring for Hugh and Rose, whom both parents clearly adored,
she sewed and worked in her garden. She and William wrote
frequently; their letters provide insight into their precarious
finances. The letters also afford a rare glimpse of Rose, whom
they called "Little Sister," at the tender age of 2: singing "Papa's
Coming Home"; recovering from measles with a lingering
cough; marching up the sidewalk on her own to visit a neighbor;
climbing on her mother's lap and saying "rock it," referring to
herself. 20 At the same time, Sena economized. She sold off books,
pictures, the organ and sewing machine. She gave music lessons
and studied for the exam that would qualify her to teach school
(and thus add to the family income); she considered discharging
the hired girl to save expenses. 21

�The precise reason for William's failure is unclear, but, by 1877,
a Ro e put it, "Papa had spent all his money. "22 The Panic of
1873 ruined many businesses and caused widespread
unemployment, and he had spent lavishly on Emerald Cottage.
\ for his business dealings, he pleaded, "I have been indiscreet
but never dishonest. I have often been the victim of deceit or bad
judgement but never willfully wronged any man .. .l do not fear the
future even in poverty." 23
,
In June 1877, Sena and the children, then 5 and 3, moved into a
rented room; she paid her landlady, Mrs. Higgins, with her velvet
carp t. ext, they moved to Fairmont, while William headed
west for what he called his "new venture. "24 That summer, the
n xt chapter of Rose's life began as they followed William-first
to ebraska and then Missouri-to make a new start. On the way,
daughter Mary Ilena (Lee), was born, August 28, 1877, in Iowa. 25
De pite O'Neill's financial embarrassment, local newspapers
treated him uncritically. In September 1877, the Luzerne Union
report d that he was in O'Neill City, Nebraska, to exhibit "his
c ntennial show." 26 On July 16, 1882, the Sunday News advertised
the ale of Emerald Cottage. The notice alluded to O'Neill's
altered situation: "In the good times (emphasis added) Wm. P.
O'Neill bought a large lot on Meade Street, some one hundred
and eighty-five feet wide, and built an elegant cottage, which he
named 'Emerald Cottage.' He made of it a fair bowerie [sic]."
adly, nothing is left of the O'Neill home. On March 12, 1888, the
7imes Leaderreported that "Emerald Cottage on Meade Street,
near Market, built by William P. O'Neill, is going to make room
for a n w church. The Welsh Baptist people of Sheridan Street are
about to build a larger and more commodious edifice where the
cottage now stands."
It i impossible to know how Rose's early years in Wilkes-Barre
haped her life. We do know that she never forgot Emerald
Cottage; she recalled fondly its "charm, fine trees, a lawn
and plenty of roses." 27 lt is tempting to imagine that pleasant
memories of her childhood home sparked her life-long affection
for another bucolic locale far away in the rural Ozarks.

�Reenvisioning
Rose O'Neill's
Comic Feminist
Debut Novel,
THE LOVES
OF EDWY
BY JENNY SHANK
�the truth, and then, entirely knowing
it, I want to see the fun in it," Jane
Ross-Connaught tells the narrator,
Georgie, in Rose O'Neill's 1904 novel,
The Loves ofEdwy, in a moment of
candor when she explains to him her animating force. "I wanted
to ee," he continues. "I abhorred being blind and selfishly living
in illusions, like- others. But when I saw, I was not content; I
wanted to make the others see, too. Their eyelessness irks me"
(O' eill, Edwy 160).
career, but "autobiographical" implies a close plot resemblance
to the author's life, and key elements of the plot of The Loves of
Edwy roam far from documented details of O'Neill's life. Another
problem with the term "autobiographical" is that this is often how
novels by women are labeled and understood- as emanating from
personal experience rather than imagination and artistic choice.
Perhaps The Loves of Edwy is better described as a feminist novel
that offers a study in the possible life paths and ways of being in
the world available to an American woman at the beginning of
the twentieth century.
In The Loves ofEdwy,Jane evolves from a verse-scribbling sevenyear-old into an independent woman and professional writer,
and her mission of portraying the truth with humor could
de cribe O' eill's own. Almost eighty years after Rose O'Neill's
death, he is best remembered as a pioneering artist and
illu trator, although her literary output was also considerablehe wrote and illustrated four novels and a collection of poetry,
a well a several books featuring her most famous creation,
the Kewpie. While O' eill's stature has risen in recent years as
a trailblazing female cartoonist, a convention-flouting feminist
and uffragist, and as the creator of one of the most soughtafter doll among collectors, it appears her books are little read
today- or if they are, readers keep their thoughts about the books
to them elves. O' eill's first novel, The Loves ofEdwy, is often
mentioned in passing in roundups of her accomplishments, where
it i almo t always described as "autobiographical." But is this
adjective accurate?
As The Loves of Edwy opens, its protagonist Aspasia Jane RossConnaught is a 7-year-old growing up in a "mountain town in
Pennsylvania" (23), and the narrator, Georgie, most frequently
referred to by Jane's nickname for him, Juggs, is a few years older.
Juggs is the son of a wealthy man whose business keeps him in
New York, while Juggs' mother lives in Europe. While his "father's
man" nominally looks after him, instead he becomes "almost a
sixth child in the house of Connaught" (25). In many ways this
setup echoes the plot of Little Women, a novel popular during
O'Neill's childhood, in which the wealthy and parentless boy
Laurie becomes a fixture in the impoverished but lively home of
the March family next door. Juggs soon begins to feel "that [he]
preferred to throw things at [Jane] than at any other little girl"
(28) and his lifelong devotion to her begins.Juggs' cousin Edwy
becomes equally enamored ofJane, though while the otherwise
reserved Edwy speaks openly of his feelings for Jane,Juggs keeps
his own hidden. Juggs is sent away for schooling for several
stretches of years, but the events of the narrative only continue
when he is inJane's presence, chronicling his unexpressed
devotion for Jane, which her hints suggest is matched by her own.
"I want
It' true that several key details of the novel clearly seem inspired
by people and incidents in O'Neill's own life, particularly her
childhood poverty, her singular father, and her early acting
�First Person Peripheral:
A NARRATIVE APPROACH MOST
OFTEN RESERVED FOR MEN
The first unusual choice that O'Neill makes with crafting
The Loves ofEdwy is her selection of point of view. The novel is
narrated in the first-person perspective of a man,Juggs. Female
novelists of this era and before it rarely wrote in the first-person
from a man's perspective. An omniscient point of view that
included access to the thoughts and feelings of both male and
female characters wa a more typical tactic, favored by novelists
including Jane Austen, George Eliot, and Louisa May Alcott.
O'Neill, however, selected a narrative style that is even more
unusual for a female novelist than the first-person central: the
first-person peripheral. In this approach, the main character of the
novel does not narrate the book, rather, the narrator is someone
who is obsessed with the subject or at least keenly interested in
them. The most famous example of this type of narration appears
in a book published about two decades after The Loves of Edwy, _F.
Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby, in which Nick Carraway details
the exploits of his fascinating neighbor. Notably, though, that's a
story narrated by a man about another man whom he considers
to be "great." Man-on-man narration is the most frequent use of
the first-person peripheral, from Robert Penn Warren's. All the
King's Men to John Irving's A Prayer for Owen Meany. Occas1onally,
especially in recent years, authors have used the _first-pers?n
peripheral in books in which a female narrator descr~b:s the _hfe
of another female main character, for example, My Brzllzant Friend
by Elena Ferrante. O'Neill's extremely unusual choice is to employ
a male narrator for the story of a female protagonist, an approach
whose most salient example, Willa Cather's My Antonia, was not
published until 1918.
Was O' eill's choice of point of view for The Loves ofEdwy a
deliberate flouting of gender conventions, or, as someone who
was accustomed to living so free from gender role restrictions in
other aspects of her life, did it just not occur to her that it was
unusual for a man to narrate a story that was primarily concerned
with the activities and decisions of a woman? In any case,Jane
is the star of the book, the character whose actions and choices
influence all the other characters, while Juggs, for much of the
novel, remains the indolent-if handsome and witty-son of a
wealthy man who hangs around observing her.
For much of the first part of the book,Juggs only narrates events
whenJane is present.Juggs quickly summarizes the years he's
apart from Jane while he attends high school. When he returns,
he finds her spending more time practicing "the dramatic art"
than writing poetry. "She confided to me, though, that she
had not out and out abandoned literature, but would content
herself with being a great actress who brought forth a book
of astonishing poems every year or so. She said her father had
assured her that these two, along with music and painting, were
'sister arts,' harmonizing with, and the complements of, each
other; all alike being the gifts of the All-ruling Mind to man, to
serve as a medium of expression for the pent-up emotions of
the human heart" (77). This sentiment about "sister arts" echoes
the views of O'Neill's father, as expressed in her posthumously
published autobiography. As The Loves of Edwy unfolds,Juggs and
Jane both suffer from pent-up emotions, as they busy themselves
with writing and drawing, but neither can bring themselves to
plainly express how they feel about each other, with tragic results.
The narrative again skips rapidly ahead whenJuggs parts from
Jane to attend Yale for three years, after which he drops out
without graduating and travels to Paris to idle with his mother.
His father summons him to New York to enter the family
business, a period which he summarizes in one sentence as, "I
tried and failed; yawned, sulked, and made pictures in the ledgers;
contrived pranks on fellow clerks, played at imitating my father's
signature, loafed, and made myself disgusting" (122). After this
quick digest of pivotal events in Juggs' life, the narrative pace
slows again onceJuggs is back in Pennsylvania inJane's presence.
He perceives that her family is suffering financial difficulty, and
he hatches a scheme to sell his artwork to a magazine named Wit,
and give the money to the Connaughts by purchasing the books
Jane's father sells through a third party, obscuring his own role.
Juggs lavishes much more time in his narration on every stray
glance or encouraging word Jane gives him than on the events
that shape his own life. Even the defining episode of his life and
the climax of the novel-whenJuggs goes to prison for five years
for forging his father's check-is glossed over in the space of a few
pages. The book is written from the perspective of a man, but it's
the woman whose life is central to it.
WhileJuggs lazes about,Jane keeps active, studying Latin,
memorizing Shakespeare, performing in plays, writing poetry,
and scraping together an education despite her father's inability
to pay school fees. Like O' eill, after acting in plays during
her early years under ~he encouragement of her father,Jane
renounces the theater. Unlike O'Neill,Jane aspires to become a
writer, while Juggs becomes an artist.

"Make her Commonplace":
MARRIAGE MAKES AWOMAN COMMON
Late in the novel, after Edwy has repeatedly proposed to Jane and
been rebuffed, while Juggs continues waffling about declaring his
love for Jane, Juggs confides his feelings to an older friend named
Octavia, who insi ts that he propose to Jane. By now Jane is an
ind pendent woman earning a living as a writer in New York,
with a lively social life, throwing artsy salons like the ones O'Neill
ho ted. Jane has made herself into an exceptional woman. Still,
Octavia advises Juggs, "Make her commonplace, make her happy,"
by proposing to her (355).
Throughout The Loves of Edwy, O'Neill depicts female characters
who are "commonplace"-those who follow prevailing gender
role . Jane's mother is sweet and cheerfully long-suffering; by the
nd of the book, after giving birth to nine children, five of whom
die, he loses her mind, "thenceforth resting in a dimly smiling
oblivion in which she forever nursed an imaginary baby" (320).
ailed "the little mother," she is the only character in the book
who isn't given a name.
While high-spiritedJane is always joking and thinking about
art,Jane' younger sister, Cornelia, is practical, ladylike, and
a bit of a pill. O'Neill writes, "Cornelia, who was ten and the
housekeeper, now came in with a broom, dustpan, and an air of
great severity, to put things to rights." When, as an adolescent,
Jugg realizes that Edwy loves Jane too, he tries to instead interest
him in Cornelia, but neither will have her.Jane dresses like a
ragamuffin, and comports herself as she pleases, but Cornelia
" elected for her playmates only little girls of white aprons and
unmistakable gentility; and those who whistled, wore gingham,
and threw their dresses over their heads when it rained, were no
better than riff-raff" (45). Cornelia is named after her aunt, who
comes to stay with the Ross-Connaughts when it's clear that her
i ter need help, and Aunt Cornelia and Jane clash, largely over
Jan 's violation of typical expectations for girls. Aunt Cornelia
"preferred the little housekeeper, her namesake," O'Neill writes,
"and often told her that she hoped she would never, never be like
A pa iaJane" (89).
Whit Jane spends her time studying, creating, working, romping
outdoors, thinking, and being active, the women inJuggs'
family are empty-headed coquettes, living in a way that seems
parasitic. Juggs's mother and aunt cannot stand to live with
his father, so they amuse themselves in Paris, living on their
"allowance," buying fancy clothes and frequently beggingJuggs'
father for more money. Juggs' sister Nina has been trained at a
convent "not to cross her knees, not to recline in her chair," and
"not to fail in the lowering of her heavy, white eyelids under a
masculine regard" (207). However, when Nina is still a teenager,
she elopes with a handsome young man who has no knack for
earning a living. It's to support this silly, penniless couple that
Juggs eventually forges a check and goes to jail. Even after Juggs'
sacrifice, his sister's marriage continues on its luckless path, with
Nina repeatedly bearing children, though "none of the babies had
outlived a day" (333).
Given this portrait of the drudgery of women's roles as child
bearers, housekeepers, dependents, mourners, and scolds, it's
little wonder that Jane chooses to model her life after none of
them. Even though it's suggested her family is Catholic,Jane has
little heed for society's or her faith's expectations for marriage.
After Edwy again proposes to Jane andJuggs asks himJane's
response, Edwy reports, "She asked me if I believed in a short
marriage and a merry one" (194). That is,Jane was considering
agreeing to marry Edwy, as long as she could divorce him as soon
as she becomes bored, an attitude extremely uncommon for
women in the early 1900s.
Shakespeare, whose works are referenced throughout the novel,
established the principle that comedies end with a marriage and
tragedies end with a death. With its ample humor but nothing
that resembles a traditional happy ending, which category does
The Loves ofEdwy fall into? A contemporary reviewer writing in
The New York Times described it as "a tragedy done in a series of
jests." At the end of The Loves ofEdwy, when Jane andJuggs fail to
marry and instead resolve to live apart, this story of star-crossed
lovers is presented in the tone of a tragedy, since Juggs is the
narrator of it. But given the evidence of the fates of married
women in this novel, and the fact that while writing it, O'Neill had
just scraped off a first husband, Gray Latham, who drained her
financially, and was enduring a second husband, Harry Wilson,
who was a depressive scold that she would soon dump, when seen
fromJane's perspective,Jane's escape from marriage at the end
might be better understood as a triumph.
�Funny Woman:
O'NEILL'$ RADICAL HUMOR
the Annual Meeting of the National Women's Studies Association
in 1989, she asserts, "Marietta Holley, Kate Sanborn, and Rose
O'Neill have never been given the status accorded to Mark Twain,
Will Rogers, or Charles Dana Gibson" (Sheppard, "Continuity" 5).
Perhaps the most feminist aspect of Th~ Loves of Edwy is how fu?ny
it is. For all the deaths of children, parental emotional abuse,
fistfights,jail sentences, and thwarted love affairs it depicts,
the novel's tone is largely comic.Juggs' editor at Wit prizes his
drawings because they display the same qualities that many of
O'Neill's illustrations did, being humorous yet sympathetic. The
editor tellsjuggs, "Remember, stay funny in spite of the devil.
Funny with that other you have-the little dash of pity" (175).
The humor in The Loves ofEdwy ranges from entire
characterizations-Mr. Ross-Connaught is funny in bearing,
actions, and expression throughout-to Oscar Wilde-esque oneliners. For example, beforejuggs leaves for college, he andjane
are hanging out, snacking on nuts and chatting, whenjane uses a
pun. Juggs relates, "it was an observance with us to turn a deaf ear
to puns, so I continued cracking nuts like a person of some selfrespect" (104). The narration and repartee are witty throughout
the book, even when events turn tragic.
Although women have been producing humor for centuries,
with evident wit, for example, in the novels ofJane Austen and
George Eliot, men have frequently questioned whether women
are capable of being funny, as recently as 1999, when Christopher
Hitchens published his Vanity Fair essay "Why Women Aren't
Funny." In 1884, The Critic, a ew York-based magazine of literary
criticism, asked its readers to provide evidence of women's humor
(Sheppard, "Social Context" 156). In response, the following
year, Kate Sanborn published an anthology, The Wit of Women,
"to prove that American Women were not devoid of humor"
(Sheppard 156). In Alice Sheppard's "Continuity and Change: The
Cultural Context of Women's Humor," a paper she presented for
O'Neill was funny in her drawings and funny in her writing, but
because the guy did not win the girl at the end of The Loves of
Edwy, contemporary critics read it as a tragedy, although at least
one allowed it had "to a large degree a Dickens flavor" ( The New
York Times). ow that it is seldom read, The Loves ofEdwy is mainly
remembered as merely "autobiographical" in lists of O'Neill's
accomplishments. Instead of understanding O'Neill's first novel as
an autobiographical tragedy, perhaps we can more clearly see it as
a thoughtfully-crafted work of feminist comic fiction, informed by
some of O'Neill's personal experience, that should be considered
alongside her better known works of art as evidence of her
multifarious gifts.

ROSE O'NEILL AND
THE MISSOURI

P
a girl. She is eighteen. It is 1894. She has
been raised in an unconventional family
with parents who told her she could do
anything she set her mind to and that she
should have a career. She can draw, write,
ing, and dance. She was born into poverty. But her family has
created a world of their own imagination, one that is different
from the usual family. Stacks of books serve as furniture, their
mother works outside of the home, and their father cares for
the children.
This girl has just moved to New York where she lives in a
convent as she launches a career as a commercial illustrator.
And her family has moved, again. She is going to visit them by
horse and wagon.
It is a long journey, first a train from New York to St. Louis, then
another train to Springfield, and finally a two-day journey by
hor e and wagon through the Ozark Mountains to a tiny dogtrot cabin on three hundred acres, nestled in the mountains,
remote as remote can be.
But there is a babbling brook, a forest of trees, massive caves,
and neighbors tucked away in the hills whose language is vivid
and playful. It is a place where you can run free in the clothes
that you made, bathe in the stream by your home, and ride
horses through the fields.
Ilow might that affect you? How might that protect you? How
might that place be a refuge from the greater world that does
not think you should get divorced, or cut your hair, or wear
pants, or vote, or do what you want?
To live with nature as your kin, with your family of misfits, in
a place too far for others to bother with. Well, you just might
decide that THAT world IS the world, the REAL world, because
you made it. So, you take that world with you wherever you
go, nestled in your heart and mind. And then come back
whenever you need to recharge. And it serves as a bulwark
against despair, sadness, hurt, war, poverty, society's rules,
and patriarchal conventions.
Who might you be if yo~ were given a place such as this when
you were 18, with the freedom it entailed?
Well, you might turn out to be Rose O'Neill. (Fig. 1) And that
place would be Bonniebrook, in the Missouri Ozarks.
Ro e O'Neill is bigger than life. She was complex and
paradoxical. Her avid admirers (me included) have refocused
her history dependent upon their own connections to her work,
which has unfortunately fragmented and_di~ided her persona.
At this point we may never fully be able to reform her into the
true picture of who she was. But I do believe one thing to be
true - he would not have been fully herself had she not been
introduced to the Missouri Ozarks.

�Rose had already left home to seek
a career in ew York when her
father, Patrick, moved the family to
"Bonniebrook," located just a few miles
from Branson and fifty miles south
of the larger township of Springfield,
Missouri (Fig. 2). On her first visit to
see the family's new home, Rose fell in
love with the landscape, calling it "the
tangle" and the "forest enchanted." 1 She
wrote expansively about her introduction
to both the land and the people of the
Ozarks in her memoirs, in stories, and
even in an article for the St. Louis PostDispatch. 2 Within her florid descriptions,
she links both of her most well-known
creations - the Kewpies and the Sweet
Monsters - to the Ozarks.

As she bumped along the trail towards
Bonniebrook for the first time, she noted,
"The leafy darkness seemed peopled with elves ... exquisite little
presences weaving enchanted webs among the boughs. I did
not dream then that they were "previews" of Kewpies. I had no
inkling that my own beloved elves were waiting in that wilderness
for me to give them birth. "3 The Kewpies eventually came to her
in a dream (1909), flying in through her studio window in the
attic at Bonniebrook.
trees made strange figures. I seemed to see primeval shapes with
slanting foreheads, deep arched necks, and heaping shoulders
playing on primordial flutes. I had a sort of cloudy vision of
pictures I was to make long afterwards - a great female figure
loomed out of the rocks holding mankind in her vast bosom.
That night there came to me the title of the unborn picture,
"The Nursing Monster." 4 (Fig. 3)
The Sweet Monsters consequently rose from the earth. These
drawings depict low-browed beasts and horned creatures whose
profiles resemble the craggy outcroppings of rocks visible
throughout the Ozark Mountains surrounding Bonniebrook.
Rose also mentions these drawings as she describes her initial
voyage to Bonniebrook, "The heaped rocks with twisted roots of
As Rose, her two younger sisters Lee and Callista, and her father
finally reached the cabin at Bonniebrook she exclaimed, "The
next day we went deeper and deeper into the thick woods. I
forgot my fears and shouted with joy. I called it the 'tangle' and
my extravagant heart was tangled in it for good .... The Forest
Enchanted closed us in. "5

�Bonniebrook immediately became a refuge, an inspiration, a
place to which Rose would return repeatedly to recharge and
recuperate. As her fortunes grew over the course of her career,
she invested heavily in the home, adding bay windows, French
doors, bookshelves, two additional stories, and the first working
indoor toilet and telephone in the region (Fig 4). Rose wrote,
"For the first time in our lives we learned by heart the sound of
solitude, that mystical voice made up of winds, flowing water,
rustling leaves and little secret feet, soliloquies of birds and
insects, the long lament of owls. It was wild." 6 ature, her hills,
forests, and streams were integral to this connection, this belief in
the land as respite, but the effect was deepened and augmented
by the unique people who lived there and who accepted Rose and
her family as best they could with kindness and care.
The Ozark Mountain country in Southwest Missouri, where Rose's
beloved Bonniebrook was sited, was originally seasonal hunting
grounds of the Osage Nation. As white settlers began to move
in, they came from Tennessee, Kentucky and the Carolinas and
were mostly yeoman farmers by trade. The majority were, as
Ro e described it, "that old breed of Scotch and English that had
trekked west from the Southern states, following mountains, and
carrying with them obsolete English words and Scottish ballads.
They carried something else as well: certain courtesies, fine
reserves, and gracious hospitalities; indestructible dignity, liberal
mind, stoic endurance, and flabbergasting humor." 7
The primary characteristic of this region is isolation. The hills
and valleys make the area hard to traverse and easy to hide in.
It attracted loners and rebels 8 , but it also supported a network
of liberal mindedness and hospitality as the harsh and remote
conditions made it tantamount to help your neighbor.
Vance Randolph 9, folklorist and Rose's friend, noted that for the
residents of the Ozark Mountains, "their way of life changed very
little during the whole span of the nineteenth century. They lived
in a lost world, where primitive customs and usages persisted
right down into the age of industrial civilization." 10 Randolph
also fell in love with the people, eventually moving to the Ozarks
full time in the 1920s. He described them as "the best talkers I
have ever known. Their speech was musical and soothing, full of
strange, meaningful words and phrases." 11
The speech patterns of Ozarkians retained an inordinate number
of words and phrases from Elizabethan English. According to
journalist and scholar H.L. Mencken in 1921, "In remote parts of

the United States, there are still direct and almost pure-blooded
descendants of the seventeenth-century colonists. Go among
them and you will hear more words from the Shakespearian
vocabulary, still alive and in common service, than anywhere else
in the world, and more of the loose and brilliant syntax of that
time, and more of its gypsy phrases." 12 These were the people
whom the O' eills befriended and befuddled when they settled at
Bonniebrook.
Rose, raised on the works of Shakespeare by her father, was
enthralled by this world where Shakespearean language was part
of everyday speech and was besotted with the turns of phrase,
grammar, and vocabulary of her friends and neighbors, many of
which she recorded in her journals. Of her neighbors' speech,
Rose said "We had never heard such talk. The charm of long-ago
words. The drawl. We never tired of the drawl. "13
According to Randolph, "the most striking features of the
hillman's speech is his habitual use of picturesque comparisons,
outlandish metaphors and similes, old sayings and proverbs,
cryptic illusions to esoteric mountain lore, and bucolic wisecracks
generally. "14 This use of humor supported and invigorated
Rose's own love of wordplay, a trait built into the family dynamic

A group of vigilantes, named the Bald Knobbers, were based in the Missouri Ozarks. They were active from 1883 to 1889 and first formed to protect life and property in the
region but later became known for enacting violence and taking the law into their own hands ..

�She also wrote of their neighbors' unique way of dress and
comportment: "The young men were fond of decoration. Many
wore their hair long, sometimes almost to the shoulders. Often
the broad-brimmed hats had a girl's colored belt for a band. On
festal occasions a masculine chest would be bespangled with
'beauty pins' (brass breast-pins with setting~ of colored glass).
Leather belts were sometimes wound with ribbons. Boots had
fringes round the tops or cuffs of scarlet leather. "17 In comparison
to the standard fashions in the rest of the country, where men
were expected to wear suits and women wore corsets, the
Ozarkians were unusual and unconventional - further proof that
the O' eills had found a unique. community that might be more
accepting of their own unusual ways. Rose noted that "They never

they could and did not let it interfere with our friendship. "18

through Patrick's r citation of plays and Meemie's love of books
and mu ic. Rose was educated in elocution, acted in several
theatrical productions, and was an avid reader. Her own love
of wordplay i evidenced in her journals, letters, illustrations,
and the entire world of the Kewpies. The tongue-in-cheek
name , the alliterative speeches, and the Kewpies' witticisms are
unmi takable evidence of Rose's love of language, all of which can
al o be traced back to the Missouri Ozarks. 15
o. e was equally inspired by the resilience of her Ozark
neighbors and featured them in stories and illustrations. Rose
featured their closest neighbor, "Aunt Jane," in her story "The
llir d Man," with accompanying illustrations published in Good
Jfou ekeepingin]une 1929. According to Rose,Jane was "elderly
and moked a pipe ... her calico shoulders were narrow and bent...
her voice wa a weary little whine. "16

The O'Neill family, raised as iconoclasts, also used the isolation
to their advantage in following their own creative pursuits. (See
Fig. 5) Meemie created a lavish and beautiful garden, the children
explored the woods, and they read and read and read. As Rose
became famous, she invited friends from all over the world to
visit where they would swim in the creek, read poetry, and revel
in the solitude. She authored books, she made illustrations, and
she drew. Brother Hughie made furniture, sister Lee painted,
and Meemie played piano. As Rose noted, "we have been coming
back to it [Bonniebrook] all these years, from New York,
London, Paris, Italy... none of us have ever thought of giving
up Bonniebrook. "19
Bonniebrook's supportive and creative environment is linked
to so many of Rose's life choices and creative pursuits. It was at
Bonniebrook that Rose first determined she ought to divorce first
husband Gray Latham. Her father drove her to the courthouse in
Forsyth, Missouri, in 1901 to help her file for divorce. 20 During her
second marriage to Harry Wilson, they split their time bet~een
Bonniebrook and ew York as Wilson found it an ideal place to
write. He authored several novels there, which Rose illustrated,
including The Spenders (1902) and The Lions of the Lord (1903). It
was also at Bonniebrook that she realized she had to leave Harry;
a decision supported by her family.
�21

�Rose created untold numbers of illustrations there for the many periodicals for which
she worked. She sold the first "pile of drawings" that she made by the brook and the
cabin as soon as she returned to New York. And she never stopped working while she was
there, rolling her drawings "around smooth sticks ofwood ... sent out across the hills on
horseback." 21 The family left their mail by the 'Fairy Tree' at the foot of their property. And
she wrote her own poems and several of her novels there.
And despite her life as a world traveler, her wealth, and her homes, it was to Bonniebrook
that Rose would eventually retire. Of course, her changed financial situation precluded her
need to sell her other properties but I remain convinced that she would have preferred to
spend her final days in Bonniebrook regardless of the circumstances. When Rose finally
returned to Bonniebrook for good, sister Callista also returned. Meemie and brother Clink
were already there, and the foursome spent their days reading, singing, and enjoying the
company of their Ozark friends, as well as brother Hugh and his children, who now lived
in Springfield.
If you are given space to imagine your life differently, if you are introduced to diverse ways
of living through travel, then you are much more likely to find it possible to navigate your
own path. Of course, Rose's wealth made her ability to fully embrace different modes of
living financially possible. Her privilege of wealth and race made it easier to be a divorcee
and dress in velvet robes in a world that said women should do otherwise.
This privilege did not exempt her from all of society's rules or judgements, but it did mean
that she was able to create a small pocket where the world ran according to her desires.
Bonniebrook and the Missouri Ozarks were such places and had all the ingredients to
support such a family - seclusion, forests, magic, caves, and mountains. I would argue that
while Rose would always have been a successful illustrator, she might not have had the
courage to be herself so fully if she had not had Bonniebrook, where she could recharge,
regroup, and arm herself to deal with the rest of the world. She wrote, "I never approached
Bonniebrook without an ecstatic lifting of the heart ... "23 (See Fig. 6)
A visit to Bonniebrook in 2023 reveals that the site, even without the original home, is
magical. It is a place unto its own, created by the confluence of nature, history, and people,
and imbued with the frolics and wisdom of Rose O'Neill, her kewpies, and sweet monsters. It
remains The Forest Enchanted.

�Re-examining
Embrace of the Tree:
ROSE O'NEILL'S
ART AS ADVOCACY
FOR WOMEN
BY HEATHER SINCAVAGE, M.F.A.
�A heavy numbness seizes her limbs, / her soft breasts are girded by thin bark, / her hair grows
into foliage, her arms into branches, / her foot, just now so swift, clings by sluggish roots.
Ovid's Metamorphoses, an insulted Eros (Cupid) shoots two arrows - one of gold
and one of lead. The golden arrow hits Apollo who falls deeply in love with
nymph Daphne. Shot with the lead arrow, Daphne is impervious to love and
rebuffs Apollo's advances. Unrelenting Apollo pursues Daphne who cries out to
her father, Peneus, the river god, to save her. Peneus transforms her into a laurel
tree. Apollo, unable to control himself, steals her leaves, creating a wreath for him to don.
The laurel wreath became a symbol of honor and victory, Apollo's triumph to claim a piece
of Daphne in his pursuit of love.
In
Over time, the tale of Apollo and Daphne has been fodder for countless pieces of art;
most notable is the marble sculpture by Gian Lorenzo Bernini made between 1622 and
1625, famously still on display today in the Galleria Borghese in Rome. In recent years, the
Apollo and Daphne tale has been re-examined through a feminist lens by art critics such as
Griselda Pollock. Critics refocus the tale to reflect the Me Too era. Instead of being a story
of Apollo's unrequited love, what cannot be ignored is Daphne's lack of body autonomy
and her rape.
He gives the wood kisses," Ovid recounts, drily, "and the wood shrinks from the kisses. / The god
said to her, 'Since you can't be my bride, at least / you will certainly be my tree!
Rose O'Neill's impressive and probably most controversial work is Embrace of the Tree
(c. 1920), a depiction of the Apollo and Daphne myth. Now residing at her Ozark
estate, Bonniebrook, the limestone sculpture was first displayed as a bronze in Paris
in 1921 and was thought to be stylistically inspired by the sculptures of Auguste Rodin.
The sculpture shows two figures, one male, muscular and commanding, clutching the
demure and willowy female figure. The legs of the female figure are bonded at the base
to form a rooted tree trunk, thus embodying Apollo's futile attempt to keep Daphne from
transforming into a tree. The sculpture's controversy is mostly due to the sensual embrace
of the two figures, an image that is troubling for most. Now, as part of the Me Too era,
current interpretations of the story might reposition the sculpture's meaning as less of an
unrequited love story, but rather as a woman without agency. As an advocate for women,
one could imagine that Rose O'Neill might concur with this reinterpretation had she still
been living today.

�from aWoman's Perspective:
MORE THAN THE ANGEL IN THE HOUSE
Rose O' eill was a singular woman at the turn of the twentieth
century. n accomplished artist, writer, poet, and entrepreneur,
she used h r gift to be an influential figure in the suffrage
lllO\cmcnt, firmly believing in body autonomy and emancipation.
In Shelley Armitage' book, Kewpies and Beyond, she states
1h.1t O' ill "e entially argued that only the woman artist
ran change the fal e and failed images of women, shaped by
mrn's \rnrd "(Armitage, 132). Throughout her career, O' eill
\\Ould create ensitive, self-reflective images of women in her
illustration for p riodicals such as Puck magazine. She built her
ct1n'rr advocating for the marginalized and used her prestige to
motivate other to support causes she believed in.
In her 1905 illu tration for Puck, The Moral Atmosphere, (p#56)
the art nouveau- tyled pen and ink drawing is an image of a
hustling treet out ide of a theater. While the people depicted
in the image are glamorously self-involved, the woman in the
foreground i with her own thoughts - as if she knows she is
about to b on <li play and perhaps is uncomfortable about it.
I heaters at the time were places to be seen by social climbers
\dthin , ociely a evidenced by Mary Cassatt's series of paintings
of th cat rgo r throughout the 1880s. At the theater, women
\\CIC obj cl lo be seen and everyone knew it. Many of O'Neill's
illmtration for Puck are from a woman's perspective which is a
profound choice for a men's magazine. O'Neill often grounds her
images with women at the forefront of the composition taking up
prom in nt pace in the lower quarter of the illustration.
1
"\ioman's the Virtues, Man's the Stupidity Is the Division the Gentle
lm 1r11/01 of Kewpies Makes." The New York Tribune, Apri I 14, 1915.
O' eill herself was often described as one of the most beautiful
women in the world. However, one can imagine how she would
recoil at such a statement because of her professional and
personal accomplishments. She prided herself on being both
an artist and writer, goals she made for herself at a young age,
but she also was the sole provider for her family, paying for her
siblings to attend college or funding their professional pursuits.
She writes:
... she must be taught, as a young girl, not that she is a woman who
can do what men allow her to do, but that she is to be the producer.
She is to think about her vocation when she is young just as the man
does now. Then when the time comes for choice, she is to emancipate
herselffrom all traditions. She is to eliminate from her mind all
thoughts of shocking anybody or anything. 1
The values she challenged were instilled during the Victorian
era when the "Angel in the House" (1854), a poem by Coventry
Patmore, was embraced as the feminine ideal - subservient,
chaste, and devoted to her family. Writers such as Virginia Wolff
and Charlotte Perkins Gilman, author of "The Yellow Wallpaper"
and within O' eill's circle of friends, later critiqued the concept
as antiquated and unjust for women. In Sands of Time (c. 1901), the
woman in the painting seems to question this notion of "Angel of
the House." Potentially realizing the value placed on her fading
beauty (and all that is implied within a patriarchal society), one
might even hear her ask "is that all there is?"
�Gibson, C. D. (1903) The weaker sex. II. , 1903. [Photograph]
Retrieved from the Library of Congress, https://www.loc.gov/item/2010716170/
Women of the late 19th century and early 20th century were
fundamentally governed by their marital status. Generally, a
married woman had no separate, legal identity from her husband
and prior to marriage, a woman fell under her father's purview.
The Gibson Girl, the feminine ideal created by Charles Dana
Gibson in 1890, was the new feminine ideal looking to break away
from the patriarchy. However, while the Gibson Girl pursued
more assertiveness to manage her happiness, her appearance
and how she conducted herself in public were still a reflection
of the men in her life. 2 Virtue was paramount and a reflection
of her upbringing.
Stylish with her Gibson Girl updo, the Sands of Time (p#39)
woman is not one-dimensional. While the Gibson Girl was the
feminine ideal in the late 19th century, suffragist Nina Allender
adopted the Gibson Girl aesthetic and "injected [the Allender
girl] with the spirit for reform" in 1912. 3 The Sands ofTimewoman
precedes the Allender girl but perhaps predicts her existence.
O'Neill draws the Sands of Time woman with a concerned
expression. The artist professes that men have placed women
in the shackles of society-not physical restraints (although she
would argue a corset is just that) but with words.
They were much easier to make than chains, and more convenient.
So, men taught them that chastity was a woman's great virtue. Even
now only one thing can 'ruin' a woman. That word should be nonexistent, for it represents false ideals. He taught her that prudence
and obedience and all the gentler attributes were fine and womanly.
It was convenient for the husband, and it was convenient for the
father before he gave her to the husband. And women have believed
the silly things. 4
Her Sands of Time woman seems to be in the midst of realizing her
constraints. Her image and her beauty represent the values of her
family, but she is more than this.

llll!!!"lll!lll"!!I...
Year later, as O'Neill lent her talents to the suffrage
movement, she reimagined the Modern Woman. The
1915 po ter, Together for Home and Family, depicts a man
and woman holding hands, the woman with her arm
out tretched and reaching forward as if to gesture
toward the future. The two are depicted as equals.
O' 1cill' Modern Woman wore a long flowing dress
\\ith no evidence of the corset, and wore bobbed hair,
popular for the period, abandoning the Gibson Girl style
that pr vail d in the early 1900s. Women desired to seek
life out id of the home - to go to college, have careers
- and O'Neill uggests that this was possible in equal
partn r hip with her partner. Indeed, this did mean
that thi wa available almost exclusively to middle - and
upper-class white women. 5
, upporting a cause she believed in, O'Neill called
upon her Kewpies to bring her personal beliefs to
the main tream. Her infamous creation debuted in
Ladies 1/omejournal in 1909. They were inspired by Cupid,
(the Kewpie name hark ning to her love for speaking
in 'baby talk') and are considered figures of mirth.
The K wpie earned O' eill 1.4 million dollars, over
35 million in today' standards, and were all the craze,
preceding Walt Di ney's Mickey Mouse by almost 20
year .

·1he Kewpies' philosophy is to do "good deeds in a funny
way." To promote women's suffrage, O 'Neill enlisted
the Kewpies to persuade voters to support the
movement. In one instance in 1914, she organized a
stunt to drop celluloid Kewpie dolls, each wearing
a tiny yellow parachute and a sash bearing women's
right slogan , from a plane piloted by aviation pioneer
Kath rine tinson over Nashville. 6 The Kewpies were
powerful persuaders.
O' eill al o would use her own celebrity for the
mov ment by attending protests, marching in parades
and vrn hanging a banner outside her Washington
, quar apartment. As a twice-divorced businesswoman,
the m n he married were not particularly helpful and
supportive of her accomplishments. She was
succe ful - and wealthy- in spite of them, going on
to ingl -handedly support the endeavors of her
family, other artists, writers, and dancers; therefore
she undoubtedly felt she was due the same rights as
her male counterparts.

�Sweet Monsters:
AN AWAKENING CONSCIOUSNESS
\s 0' eill continued as an illustrator and writer, her private
l'ndcarnrs, th wcet Monsters, reflected the new Modernist
id<'ab that reli hed creation from self reflection and
rnnsciousne . Modernists aimed to dismantle the Victorian
.. \ngd in the Ilou e" trope. At the same time as her Together for
fl111t1l' mul Family ' Uffrage poster, O'Neill created a rendering of
the "\1odern Woman" for The New York Tribune, which was more
of a stylistic departure from her public suffrage work and more
akin in spirit to her private drawings, the Sweet Monsters. The

gffflf er;t insult of the world, but she is now to be emancipated. 7
,\ patriarchal societ~ puts limitations on women, an attitude
th,tt somr vom n internalize, causing them to hold themselves
hark. 0' eill believed that women's ability to give birth was not
a limitation of their gender and should be celebrated. She urged
,wmrn to join her in working to overturn such barriers. In her
)()Vi articl for the Times Dispatch, she writes: 'You are a woman. So
am I. lie have the same problem. We are of one sisterhood. Let us help
mrh othn~' 8 encouraging women to band together and support
l'lll.trtcipation. Helping each other begins, however, with the
sdf. Shelley Armitage writes, "she seemed vitally aware that by
rh,mging the inner picture of oneself, the public articulation- the
\\Ords of society- could be changed." (132)
Indeed, 0' eill publicly celebrated women but perhaps explored
h<'t "inner picture" in her private endeavor, the Sweet Monsters.
I h<' , ,wet Mon ters, sometimes referred to as Titans, were
dr,mings that weren't released to the public until some twenty
H',lf'S after he began drawing them. Sitting in her second floor
studio at Bonniebrook surrounded by the woods, she would look
out of hrr window after dark and wait for the monsters to show
7 " \\ 0111r111's
themselves in the windings of tree limbs and branches. Through
the Sweet Monsters, O' eill explored the :Jungian Self,' 9 better
known as the study of the conscious and subconscious mind,
which was a new psychological study emerging in 1902.
The monsters could be considered her most honest and
revealing work .
Stylistically, the Sweet Monsters are "sculpted" through O' eill's
heavy cross hatching in pen and ink. Their substantial figures
often intertwined with each other suggest interdependence and
companionship. Androgynous in nature, the monsters investigate
emotional relationships and embody that subconsciousness
through their actualization, whereas in O'Neill's earlier work,
women are sensitively drawn as thinking and feeling people. The
monsters, free of gender constraints, are the act of thinking and
feeling. Armitage describes them as the "birth of consciousness. " 10
Androgyny was a distinct choice by O'Neill when creating both
the Kewpies and the Sweet Monsters. While O'Neill considered
the Kewpies to be male, she did not depict genitalia; moreover,
the Sweet Monsters often displayed physical characteristics of
both genders simultaneously. By using androgyny as an identity,
O' eill offers that the tension between the sexes is eliminated and
therefore implies their opportunities are limitless. Differences are
resolved when genderless. 11
Once free of constraints, the Kewpies float through the air- an
act of being so free that their imagination allows them to flip
and float as needed. The monsters emerge from scribbles and
become figures woven together hardly noting where one ends and
the other begins - the embodiment of collective consciousness.
Imagining a world without the limitations of gender suggested
that a fuller, limitless world could be created for women. The
constraints society created around gender were false shackles.
Breaking free from those confines, and by merging the Kewpies
with people in the actual world, O'Neill encourages that anyone
was capable of this consciousness. "Each person must realize
the power of imagination - become an artist of the self- to
incorporate the male and female parts of the self." 12

�Emancipating Daphne
At her core, O'Neill was a forthright activist for women. To her, gender was a power
construct in a patriarchal society and when eliminated from the equation, the ability to
realize women's potential could happen. Through her early illustrations, O'Neill portrayed
women aware of their constraints enforced through the expectations of gender, but with the
Kewpies and the Sweet Monsters, the truest of selves could flourish. That said, would she
have agreed to reimagine the Apollo and Daphne tale, Embrace of the Tree?
Embrace of the Tree is the depiction of gender inequity. Eliminating binary gender as part of
the Kewpies and Sweet Monsters identities allowed them to thrive as their truest selves. The
only way for Daphne to escape the advances of Apollo is to transform into a non-human,
a tree. Even when Daphne changes, Apollo robs her of her leaves to take a piece of her for
himself- a metaphorical rape- and, because she is without autonomy, her cry is silenced.
In fact, in true Modernist fashion, O' eill uses this well-known mythology because of its
inherent emotions and experiences. Perhaps, because of this, she might also agree that her
version of the story, Embrace of the Tree, suggests the woman's body is a political space.
As O'Neill developed as an illustrator and artist, no doubt she felt the profound impact
of her creative voice. For Puck magazine, she was the sole voice for the marginalized. As
an up-and-coming entrepreneur, she overcame the doubt of others by wielding her
abilities. She used her success to advocate for others, becoming a prominent force in the
suffrage movement.
As we imagine her cherished sculpture in today's world, Rose O'Neill was not a silen er of
women; she was a voice for them. Embrace of the Tree reminds us that power inequity remains.
However, if the Kewpies remind us of anything, it is that, when women are freed from the
shackles of gender, our abilities are limitless.

Description
An account of the resource
In celebration of Sordoni Art Gallery’s 50th anniversary, the gallery honored the work of Wilkes-Barre native, Rose O’Neill (1874–1944), artist, illustrator, sculptor, poet, novelist, suffragist, and entrepreneur. Exhibition ran from August 25th-October 8th, 2023.
O’Neill (1874–1944), an American illustrator of the early 20th century, was a woman of many accomplishments — published poet, novelist and activist for women’s suffrage. She is considered the first female comic artist and was the first woman illustrator for Puck magazine, the leading men’s magazine of the late-19th century, entertaining its readers with considerable satire and political commentary.
Kewpie dolls, based on comic strip characters O’Neill created, gained international popularity, served as the face of major advertising campaigns and appeared on a variety of household goods. O’Neill became the first woman to earn over a million dollars, and her $1.4 million fortune would be equivalent to more than $36 million today.
An accomplished artist and sculptor of Sweet Monsters, her work was featured in exhibitions in Paris and New York. O’Neill was inducted into the National Women’s Hall of Fame in 2019. The One Rose celebrates the life and career of this Wilkes-Barre artist who was born just streets away from where the gallery is today.
