���Bob Amey, Experienced Leader,
Will Teach in Pennsylvania
by J. J. Shilanski
Bob Amey, a senior business education major, who was
out of school for seven years before coming to Wilkes, believes
that college is just what the individual makes it.
Bob stated that he has always
liked Wilkes and has found little
change in the campus during his
four years here. However, he does
think the school spirit is much bet­
ter this year, as evidenced by the
Dartmouth trip and the increased
number of activities for which the
School Spirit Committee and its
chairman are responsible.
Presently a resident of Gore Hall,
Bob is a native of Allentown, Penn­
sylvania, where he attended Allen­

from which he was graduated in

I United States Army, and has

�Nigerian Stadent Proud
Of Country’s Freedom
by Jerry Shilanski
To most students here at the college, October 1 was just
another Saturday, a football game, or a day of leisure. But
for Sonjo Shoyinka it meant much more. It was the day that
his native country, Nigeria, received its independence from
Great Britain.
According to Sonjo, he and nearly forty million other citi­
zens of this vast west African country have been looking forward 1
to and preparing for their independence for more than fifteen
I years. This day, marking a definite end to colonialism in
lAfica, came without riot or bloodshed, as compared with the

�WILKES

COLLEGE

WILKES-BARRE
PENNSYLVANIA

August 1, 1962

Mr. George F. Elliot
3 23 Carmita Avenue
Rutherford, New Jersey

Dear George:

It is our hope that you are having an enjoyable summer. Per­
haps this year you are spending the entire summer at Cape Cod. If
so, I know you are having a wonderful vacation; would that I might
one day bask in such luxury.
The averages for the dormitories have just been figured, and
Gore Hall seems to be the best. We are happy to see this, and we
congratulate you on good influence. Ijnight add that I have been going
through the dormitories recently, and it is pleasing to see the good
physical condition of Gore Hall. I think we found it in better condition
than any elf the other dormitories. All this is a tribute to you.
The dormitory averages for the semester just completed are
as follows:

Gore '
Barre
Hollenback
Butler

2. 25
2. 22
2. 19
2. 11

Warner 2. 07
Ashley 1.91
Denison 1.90

It goes without saying that Gore would have been much higher
had it not been for one or two students who were quite low. Of course,
this same condition exists in other dorms too. The academic achieve­
ment in Ashley and Denison is deplorable, and we hope to do something
about it in the coming year.

All seems to be going well here, and I think we are getting things
lined up for a good 1962-63. The men's dormitories are almost filled
to capacity, and it appears that the selection is good. At least I hope
they will prove to be good selections. Time will tell.
Best wishes to you for a continued enjoyable summer.

Very sincerely yours,

George F. Ralston

�Loesch, Alumnus, Passes Test
For Public Accountant Title

j
!

Christopher H. Loesch, Jr., a June 1961 graduate of Wilkes, ||
has successfully taken the test necessary to become a registered 1
Certified Public Accountant. The test, a uniform one given I
simultaneously throughout the country, is comprised of five sec-1
tions and requires a testing period of 2 ¥2 days.
I
However, since the test is the only criterion which states I
have in certifying their accountants, each state sets up its own I
requirements. For this reason, Loesch will not be granted his I
certificate from the state of Virginia until he has completed the I
state's requirement of two years of experience in an accounting I
office.
To fulfill that requirement,*
Loesch is presently working in the
General Accountancy Office of the
United States Controller General.
After receiving his certificate from
the state of Virginia, Loesch will

Raised as a Christian (Baptist) in a country
that has a population divided into three religious
groups — 40 per cent Christian, 50 per cent Mos­

has observed that there is much similarity between
the way his country celebrates and the way we do.
He pointed out that both have been influenced by
British traditions.
“In Nigeria, Christmas and New Year’s have
become more or less national holidays which are
celebrated by the Moslems and pagans who parti-1

�E^orts editorial
Wilkes College basketball proficiency is currently on the ebb. In
I view of the team’s performances in the initial contests of the season,
Ithe above assertion becomes an absurd understatement. A number of
I factors enter into this basketball degeneracy.
I
Already suffering from a lack of height and bench strength, the
[team has now suffered the loss of guard Dick Morgan through injury.
I Last Thursday in a practice scrimmage, Dick sustained a rein jury of a
I soccer wound. His left kneecap snapped out of joint and caused the
I rupture of fluid cavities in the knee. This condition is aggravated by
■calcium deposits in the same joint. Dick will be lost to the team for an
■ indefinite period of time and as of this writing he has not yet received
jail of the medical reports.
I
Dick’s failure to appear in uniform has already had a marked effect
Ion the team’s play. Morgan was team floor leader and the best playmaker
Ion the roster. He performed exceptionally well in the Albright game
las he held Little All-American Tom Pearsal to 13 points and scored
1112 tallies himself.
His fiery play and determined spirit tends to inspire the Colonel five.
■His presence on the court has driven the team to performances beyond
■those which may be expected from players of their physical potentiali■ties.

�The ANNUAL has been published as
a service to the residents and friends of
Gore Hall, Wilkes College, WilkesBarre, Pennsylvania. Our aim is not
a literary accomplishment, but rather a
mouthpiece for those who are trying to
uphold the standards of the' college and
community. This publication will be
distrubuted once yearly, without charge,
as part of its obligation and thanks to
Wilkes College.

Aside from the fulfillment of these
personal obligations, Mr. Elliot's
activities at Wilkes have included:
teacher of economics for 11 years;
Head Dormitory Proctor; Proctor of
Weckesser and Gore Hall for 11 years;
ex-acting Dean of Men; ex-chairman
of the Curriculum Committee; ex­
member of the Administrative Council.

OFFICERS OF GORE HALL
GEORGE ELLIOT, DORM PROCTOR

To refer to George Elliot as
proctor of Gore Hall is, we feel, doing
him an injustice. We of Gore refer to
"George" more as a friend than an
\ overseer, enforcing order and obedience.
/ Yet it is difficult to describe the feelings
of the dorm in a few paragraphs. We find
it better, then, to use his own words,
extracted from a copy of the Wilkes
BEACON during the time when Mr. Elliot
was acting Dean of Men.

I am asked to be all in one:
an observant shepherd of students,
an encourager of the discouraged,
and a moderator of the overly
ambitious. In addition I must
be an informed interpreter of
college policies, a referee of
disputes, an enthusiastic supporter
of college activities, a liaison
man between students and faculty,
an honest administrator, and a
a sincere friend to all.

President—Senior David R. Kline was
unanimously elected president of Gore
Hall in the Spring of 1962, and assumed
his duties at that time. It is largely
through his efforts that the dormitory
has achieved its greatest popularity
yet. He has been instrumental in
arranging tours, outings, and parties
for Gore Hall, and also for the
publication you are now reading.
Secretary—Only a freshman, David Levy
was elected secretary in the fall. His
duties include taking the minutes at
all Gore Hall meetings, and writing
letters to various organizations when
a tour, party, or outing calls for them.

Treasurer—Nick Alesandro, a Junior
Accounting major, as treasurer of
Gore, oversees all financial under­
takings of the dorm. Nick is also
treasurer of the Inter-Dormitory Council
Athletic Chairman—John Adams can
often be seen handing out dorm uniforms
and rounding up fellows for all athletic
events in which Gore participates. John
also enters us for league competition in
basketball, tag football, and softball.

concerning the school are taken to the

they participate in discussions
concerning the betterment of dormitory
policy, and relay the decisions back

SOPHOMORES

Ronald Baldwin, a music major from
Wyalusing, Pa. , transferred from
Bennet Hall to Gore last year. Ron
is a voice major, and his rich baritone
voice can often be heard throughout

Just recently, Al was elected vicepresident of the class of '64. We all
congradulate him heartily.

One of the best liked members of
Gore Hall is Richard A Morgan, the
dormitory's Inter-Dormitory Council
representative. An English major, Dick
is the editor of Gore Hall's newspaper.
This sophomore from Phoenixville, Pa.,
is a member of the Lettermen's Club
and serves the school on both the
soccer and basketball teams. However,
an unifortunate knee injury earlier in
the season had restricted him from en­
gaging in court action this year.
Consequently, he served as the
official scorekeeper of the Wilkes
Colonels eagers.

�William John Mulford, an education
major, comes to Wilkes from Woodstown,
New Jersey. Bill is a member of the
Lettermen's Club. Gore Hall is very
proud of his achievements on the
gridiron and the baseball diamond.
Perhaps Bill, a member of the Education
Club who intends to teach upon
graduation, will pass on his love
for goldfish to his future pupils.

FRESHMEN
..Gore Hall has been blessed with many
fellows from New Jersey. One of these
is William Flynn, a freshman engineering
major from Floorham Park, N.J. "Flinsy"
has proved to be a fine athlete and has
participated in both soccer and wrestling
here at Wilkes. Bill always wears a big
grin for everyone, and is well liked by
his dormmates.

Our dorm has several liberal arts
majors; one is David Levy, a freshman
who hails from Long Island, New York.
In addition to studying and playing
bridge, Dave is the secretary of the
dorm. Dave is full of witty remarks and
always rouses laughter by them at all
dormitory occasions.

Our freshman biology major is Ronald
Masters whose home is in Merrick,
Long Island. Ron is on the swimming
team, and has proved to be an excellent
diver for the team. When he isn't
studying, swimming, or playing bridge,
Ron finds time to be a musician. He is
a good bass clarinet player and is a
member of the college band and the
Wilkes-Barre Symphonic Band.

Franklin Cook, a Phoenixville

action on the courts this season.
Frank is studying hard, and is wellliked in the dorm and the freshman
class.

Thomas Gladtke, a freshman from
Long Island, New York, is majoring
in secondary education at Wilkes.
Tom is a fine wrestler and will
definitely help Wilkes retain the
championship in the coming years.
Tom has a hard time staying from
food during the week, but when the
match is over he sure makes up for it.
One of the most popular freshmen
among his classmates is Mike Mostello
from Nutley, New Jersey. Mike's
major is English. Last semiester
Mike served as student government
representative and was the chairman
of the freshman class in the United
Fund Campaign.
Amoung the slide rules and
protractors is Alan Gilbert, a math
major from Fanwood, New Jersey. Al
also participated in wrestling this
year. Al is very studious and contrib­
uted a fine average to the dorm last
semester. Al-is a good worker and

endeavors.

Larry Gubanich, a freshman from
Phoenixville, Pa., is majoring in
accounting at Wilkes. Larry is
contributing to all of the sports this
year. He played football, was
basketball statistician, and plans to
play baseball in the spring. Larry is a

�popular guy with all the fellows in
the dorm and with .the entire student
body of Wilkes.

Henry Ho, a new member of our
dorm as of this semester, is a math
major from Hong Kong, China. In
the short time he has been here, Henry
has made many friends among the
the student body. Henry is always
hard at work, but he usually finds
time to play a game of bridge.
Robert Henricks, a music major from
Catawissa, Pa., cuts a fine figure
in Wilkes' various musical groups,
participating in the college band, the
Brass Ensemble, the Concordia, and
the Wilkes-Barre Symphonic Band. He
is one of Wilkes' finest cornet players,
and his grades match his cornet
ability. Bob made Dean's list last
semester, and is one of the dorm's
hopefulls to make it again this
semester. Bob always has some food
around, and is always willing to share'
it with his dormmates.

ACTIVITIES

The men of Gore have realized that
as dorm students we must collectively
represent our school in various activities.
Therefore we have provided many extra­
curricular affairs for the school and
community.
We were privileged this year to
hold a Christmas party for the orphaned
children of St. Stanislaus, Nanticokel
Because of its tremendous success, we
intend to make the party an annual affair.

Gore Hall also offers a $100 scholar­
ship each semester to a student in need
who has met certain qualifications.
Money for this scholarship is raised
by operating the concession stand at
high school basketball playoff games
at the Wilkes gym.

Another major activity is a dorm
outing in the spring which is scheduled
for May 12 this year. Usually an all
day affair, the outing is an anxiously
awaited event.
Tours to places like mines in the
area and various breweries, school
parties, and dorm parties are other
activities which Gore Hall conducts.
This year we have had two successful
dorm parties at the Italian Club and
Redington Hotel, and went together
with Catlin Hall, a women's dorm,
to hold a school party, also very
successful.

FORMER RESIDENTS OF GORE HALL

presence!

�John Adams Is Pegged
“Athlete of the Week”;
Is Goalie for Booters
This issue the Beacon goes to
the soccer team for the selection
of “Athlete of the Week,” and John
Adams, senior economics major,
has been selected as the outstand-

Thefortunes of Coach Ferns'
soccer squad have been marked by
ups and downs thus far in the sea­

been brilliant. Fullbacks Chuck
Weiss and Erwin Guetig and goal­
tender John Adams have been per­

Goalie John Adams also will be
lost by graduation, and his posi­
tion will be hard to fill. Goalie
Adams has not only been “Athlete
of the Week” several times, but
also received much recognition
from the ECAC.
These four seniors have shown
utstanding ability and have been
fine credit to Wilkes College.

Basketeer Dick Morgan,

by Clark Line
Dick Morgan has been selected
by the Beacon Sports Staff as “Ath­

The 5’10” junior from Spring City,
Pa., is a guard on the Colonel

For two seasons Dick has been
invaluable to the team as a play­

JOHN ADAMS
I times in that sport. John was alI so out for the Wilkes basketball
I team for a year and a half.
In addition to sports, John’s
I likes include, of course, girls, and
I functions of the dorm and Letter-'
I man’s Club. We might add that
I John is president of Gore Hall and
I treasurer of the Letterman’s Club,
las well as chairman of the Jaycee
I Membership Committee, giving eviI dence of his knack for leadership.
| John began his soccer career at
I Wilkes two years ago, and has
I lettered each time. He opened the
I season with a shutout against HarI pur, proving to be a brick wall for
I the boys from Binghamton. In
I the Lafayette game, John spoiled
■ the Leopards’ scoring attempts on
I numerous occasions with saves at
■ the net, sparking the Colonels to
la 2-1 victory. Each time John got
■ the ball he sent it booming back
■ toward Leopard territory. John
Isaid that the team played a good
■ game, and in spite of a slow start
■ in the first quarter, showed a lot
I of hustle during the rest of the
■ game. “We pushed them harder
■ than they pushed us,” he added.
| Because of the tight schedule,
I John can see no reason for not
I having a winning season if the
I boys continue to hustle.
For his leadership ability in
I many facets of campus life and
I his alert play, the Beacon feels
I that John Adams has earned the
I honor of “Athlete of the Week.”

The Colonels handed Lafayette
2-1 setback last Saturday to run
their record to 2 wins and a loss.
The first Wilkes goal was scored
by Jim Creasy late in the third
quarter, and Dick Morgan scored
the other early in the fourth quar­
ter. The Leopards’ only goal was
scored by Herb Weiland. Goalie
John Adams starred for Wilkes by
recording 19 saves.
Blank Stevens
On Wednesday afternoon Jim
I Ferri. ..s’ booters shut out a surI prised Stevens Tech squad, 3-0.
I The Colonels bowled over the HoI boken eleven in a rough match
I which marked the first Wilkes vic| tory over Stevens in six years.
I Always regarded as a perennial
f power, the Stevensmen were com| pletely devastated by the impregI nable defense of Wilkes. Fullbacks
| Chuck Weiss and Erwin Guetig,
| center halfback Dick Morgan, and
| goalkeeper John Adams (Athlete I
I of the Week) were spectacular in j
I thwarting all of the Stevens ofI fensive threats. Adams recorded
I 20 saves to record his second shutI out of the current campaign.
Offensively, the Colonels were
I also superb. The entire line moved
I the ball accurately and quickly to
keep a steady pressure on the
Stevens defenses. The Colonels’
first two goals came in the second
period and both were scored by Al
Gilbert. Jim Creasy was credited
| with an assist for each tally.
|
Bob Eurich scored in the third
period off a pass from Dick Mor­
gan who was credited with an as­
sist. Defense, again, was the key
to victory as goalie John Adams
registered 21 saves for his third
straight shutout of the season.
Adept ball-handling by the Colonel
line also figui^dflfeavily
■avily in the win.

I On court for the Colonels DickB

I which at times seems to go un-1

Debaters Rate Merits
At Annual Tournament
Two Wilkes College debaters
were recently awarded certificates
of merit at the annual Daniel S.
Dickenson debates at Harpur Col­
lege. Individual speaking awards
went to David Levy and Doug Kist­
ler; Levy ranked fourth among
more than 200 debaters and missed
being rated one of the three superi­
or speakers by a single point. Club
President John Campbell cited that
Wilkes was one of the distinguished
schools at the tournament, having
two speakers of merit, while most
had only one such honored speaker.
Teamwise, the two affirmative
and negative teams won six of the
12 rounds debated, which put them
slightly above middle place in final
outcome, and placed well as far as
actual points were concerned. The
affirmative teams defeated Colgate
and Oswego, while the negative
made a slightly better showing by
defeating Harpur, Ithaca. St. Bon­
aventure, and Le Moyne.
The
groups lost to Sy incuse, Ithaca,
University of Scranton, King’s,
Colgate, and Harpur.

Now a traditional Spring program, intramural softball has become an integral part of spring on

many teams participating this year
as in previous years, the numbers
of forfeited games has been nominal. As in the past, the league is
divided into two divisions,

teams f™.

halls.
Competition in the Dorm League
has been extremely keen. This past
Monday the Butler Hall squad
turned back the boys from Gore in
an exciting 5-4 contest to clinch the
League title. The steady pitching
of Butler’s Joe Easley enabled his
team to edge the tough Goremen.

�GURE WINS ACADEMIC TRuPHY
For the two past successive semesters the Jen of Gore have earned and
won the George Ralston Academic Trophy This fine accomplishment is
overshadowed only by the fact that Gore was able to achieve the highest
scholastic average ever maintained by a •en's Dormitory in the
•
entire
history of Wilkes College., a remarkable 2.33,

We are very proud of our excellence for this truly •’ex’ie-U4! u Dcrmitery effort
rather than individual achievment, We feel that the presence of true fidelity
and spirit within Gore belongs not to ourselves, but emanates from our proctor s
George Elliot, who as one of the "guys", continually offers his friendship
and enthusiastic support to scholastic and social activities of Gore Hall .
Without ilr. Elliot at the helm. Gore would not attain the distinguished reputation
it presently holds on campus.
The ANNUAL? now jn its second
year, is published as a service
to the residents and friends of
Gore Hall, Wilkes College, Wilkes
Barre, Pennsylvania. Our aim is
not literary accomplishment, but
rather a report by those who are
trying to uphold the standards
of college end community. This
publication is distributed once
yearly, without charge, as a part
of our obligation and thanks to

Dick Morgan is by far the outstand­

ly conceived Stagg Award numerous
limes during the season. His claim
to the title is undisputed, though all
the members of the team deserve credit.
Dick also had been named “Athlete of

DICK MORGAN SELECTED
“ATHLETE DF THE WEEK”
IN MUHLENBURG CONTEST

j

by Merle Bolen
For the first time this year the
BEACON is traveling to the Soccer
team in search of a recipient of this
week’s “Athlete of the Week” award.
Having long overlooked the fine per­
formance of the Ferrismen we feel that
their efforts are long overdue the recDgnition which it deserves.
Upon visiting the team the one name
that seems to stand out abo'&gt;ve all is
:hat of center forward Dick Morgan,
\n outstanding performer all year.
has proved his value to the squad
anyi times. However, in last Wedssdaj
ly’s game with Muhlenburg he
ally outdid himself. Setting a new
oring record of goals per game, Mor­
in boomed the ball into the net 5

maker.
make: He holds the current season’s
high for
1 Wilkes in total points scored
in one game - 27 against Albright. He
also m&lt;lade the most field goals scored
in one game also against Albright.
When Wilkes challenged Harpur,
Dick had the free-throw’ high for the
Colonels, dropping in 8 out of 11 from
the foul line.
Dick Morgan is to be congratulated
for his efforts on the basketball team,
and the BEACON
btACOIN sports staff does so
in awarding him “"Athlete
Athlete of :the
Week" honors in this issue.

I A well conditioned athlete. Dick
I always displays a maximum effort in
I both games and practice sessions. His
[hustle on the field has earned him
[three Stagg Awards and has led him
jto receive high acclaim as one of the
[finest soccer players Wilkes has seen in
[many years. Dick’s leadership ability
[is evident having been chosen co-capItain of the team. His fine work is not
new to the team.This can be seen by
reviewing last year’s games in which
his efforts were awarded by receiving
his letter for his stellar performance.
Dick is a native of Spring City,
Pennsylvania^ and now resides in Gore
| Hall. The 5 foot ten, 150 pound
i English major attended PHoenixsville
High School where he captained the
basketball team and the cross country
team. Also contributing
■'— his
his. efforts to
the track team, Dick holds
' "s letters in
all three of these sports.
The skill displayed by Morgan on
the field cannot be fully appreciated
until one stops to think that he never
(played the sport before coming to
Wilkes. Because of his capacity for
leadership and inspired play, Dick
Morgan has been- selected as the
BEACON “Athlete of the Week.”

Dear Mr.. Elliot:

know how I have, been making out since I left America late in
had written earlier, I would not have had enough news as this

In the first place, you might have heard indirectly that I am marripH,
If you have, it is? true that I got married to the girl (Patricia Hopkins)
I introduced to you at the graduation dance. Although she iras hired and
sent to Nigeria by The Ford Foundation as a librarian consultant, the Found ation has assigned her' to The Nigerian Institute of International Affairs in
Lagos,. We are happy together.
Candidly speaking, I missed school, life on Wilkes- College campus and
generally the city of Wilkes-Barre*. Particularly,. I missed Gore Hal 1 —(the Harvard HaU.&lt;^ very much. Did we retain the highest average this past semester?
How many students are now in Gore Hall? I heard from a'reliable source that
one Nnamdi Dike from Nigeria is a Resident of Gore. He may not be able to
play the Nigerian Billards I introduced to the hall when I was there. If so,
champions like .Dick Morgan, Bill Mtlford should be merciful onto him I .....

.
Concerning my job,. l am indeed pleased to inform you that. Texaco lived
up: to the promises made to- me, I mean salary wise. My official designation,
though, is Administrative Assistant, I do: all the work and shoulder all the
responsibilities is of the company’s Administrative Manager who recently
resigned the post and left for the United Kingdom. My responsibilities
include,(among other things) personnel 8k£±x, representing the managements
on all union matters, Corporate Matters, I am gaining good experiences from
the job. I am so. enjoying it that, time flies like lightening. Seven hours
of work seem like four hours.

Well. Mr. Elliot, I thank you very much for your good and valuable
advices to me while in Gore Hall, I must not forget to mention the fact
that. I so much enjoyed the Economic Geography course I had with you in. my

�academic semester from the college,
What 1 gained from the course must have bet
due t® your eloquent: speech, your inspira=
tions in delivering the lectures, I am
going to write Mr.- Farrar? soon and t®
thank him for making me work very hard
in Property Insurance course, which I now
find very handy and helpful in my job.

Dr. x-.r. Elliot,

kedu .-.a Idi'.'. Ay writing erm has, I
guess, been healed with the advent of the
rainy season. Rather than splash in a pool
of cliches about my phlegmatic correspondence
I'll just quote some the last 2,cCU years
of writing history: " I'm sorry I haven't
written sooner, I've-been meaning to - really"
After ten weeks of uneventful training
in Ohio, a contingent of 25 bucolic (me?)
specimens winged across the sea ( the Atlantic,
I believe) and after a day in Rome took up
flight again, for Eastern Nigeria. Nigeria
.has some 7^0 PCVs, but we were the first
oing into the 'bush,' as Community Development
|L,td.
e serve man. masters the most affluent
f and interesting of which is the Ford Foundat­
ion. USAID, The Experiment In international
Living and the Ministry of Internal Affairs
of this region all have a pudgy paw in the
project; all, I might add, from a distance
( say, Rnugu-the Capital of Last ). I am
quite alone and only get the'patois of the
bee,ucracy via the memorandum. They, however,
are missing all the fun.

Abia is an 'Ibo' village whose most
outstanding characteristic is isolation.
We are fifty miles from the nearest not-so bit town and six miles off the main road
( road is just a relative concept ). During
the dry season ( which is ebout to finish )
I can buzz in and out on my Honda, but when
the rains come that six miles becomes a Icvely
cascade of washed out bridges and oozing
clay. When all else fails, we trek. And
fci^er all this conditioning,a Umiles trip
of matches is not too traumatic .

The three primary targets for develop­
ment in Abia are the school, the sanitation
problem and agriculture.
Me? A Farmer?
The most I ever labored in th-e good earth
was transplanting, some petunias, for my
kotner. But farm I do in typical PC fashion
' always stay four paragraphs ahead." I'm
happy to report fair progress in two of the
three areas; sanitation, however, raises
little emotion with my villagers and greet
pf1 f O pt. 1 Q h oi nr- m n rl a + rx 1
k rxw . -r
+
effort is being made to let +them
at Tleast
see the problem, let alone do anything about
it. The school is a joy and two days a
week I lecture ( half Ibo half'pidgin ) in
health and grammar.

l.y house, I'm afraid,
ef raid, delivers a major
blow to the PC "image." it belongs to the
i.inisteryof internal Affairs ( Ferm. Secre­
tary) and is a disgustingly flamboyant
structure which does what it was intended
to do, that is, impress the local people
as to how golden their native son has*
become. ..ore than anything, however, it
is merely big. upon arrival I rejected the
house, but FC not wanting to offend the
klnsltry has aquiesed. Mow, as the rains
are due, I am secretly grateful for. my
zinc roo± ( the local status symbol).
Running water and electricity being absent
help me endure all this luxury
The language is coming, but slowly.
Cne cannot learn Ibo from a book as it" is
severely intonational - everything depends
on how well one can hear the sounds. *a
And
that is the crux of the problem,to hear the
sounds—it takes months just to get a
V;estern ear tuned in. I have a variety of
teachers from little children to chiefs.
It will be a big thing if I gain f luency^as
tew, if any, whitemen have ever bothereg^Ml
oefore
means a lot to the people.

�-3that we lack in meat and milk
we make up in fruit. I am virtually
surrounded $y citrus groves, bananas,
plaintain ( banana for cooking ), pineapples
and mangos. Because of the tsetse fly there
are no cows; I've long forgotten what a
steak testes like.
It's even hard to get
goat meat ( another status symbol ) so I
pounce on the hunters coming out of tne
I
forest for a piece of porkupine, antelope,
1
mongoose or grass cutter ( sort of a
ground hog),
ky houseboy puts curry on
everything and most of the time when I
ask what I am eating he just grins end
there ends the insight.
lhe election conflicts did not affect
the rural villages tcogreatly.
In fact,
i
all of Nigeria could explode and I wouldn't
know it until I wext on my monthly shopping d
trip.

of the season today when it jour-'

Inspired by its 11 to 0 win oflast Saturday over Keystone Col­
lege, the local college gridders arc
primed to make it two straight in
this contest. The keen passing j
attack and the pile-driver ground!

beating to Keystone last week has
been stopped up and the down-.

Forty Fort gridder, and John

varsity, Coach ;George Ralston's
Bucknell Junior College eleven will
attempt to make it three straight
wins when it plays host to the Pitts- |
ton Vocational School Saturday af­
ternoon at 2 in the Kingston Sta­

The local city college, sparked by
a heavy, hard hitting line that consistantly opens the holes for a fast,
shifty backfield, is not expecting
any easy game with the upper
county school. Although the Pitts­
ton eleven, coached by John Flana­
gan former Notre Dame gridder and
ex-mentor at St. John's Academy,
has not been able to hit the win
column yet this season, the _GI Pan­

The junior college will undoubt­
edly use the same offensive, a com­
bined aerial and ground attack, that
it used against its two previous op­
ponents. The local college's ground
gainers, Jack Josephs and Bill

Bucknell Junior College's eleven, shown above, will be trying to make it four straight in its
■
unbeaten season when it will play host to the reportedly powerful King’s College eleven at 8 toj
night in Kingston Stadium. Pictured, left to right, are: Dan Bradley, end; Girard Washco, tackle;

end. Buckfield: Bob Waters, halfback; Jack Josephs, halfback; Bill Jones, fullback; John Flore■
wicz, quarterback.
Coached by Tom Brock, former Notre Dame gridder, King’s College aggregation will be
.
pointing toward tonight’s contest as the one where it will take its first victory. Although the
|
Brockmen will enter the game the underdog because of its season opener 7 to 6 defeat to Keystone,
•
the team that Bucknell beat 14 to 0. the King's squad will be no easy foe for Bucknell.
,
King's demonstrated in its first performance on the gridiron that it has both a sparkling
aerial attack and a powerful ground assault. Undoubtedly, Brock's team will hit the junior college
I
eleven with everything in its bag of tricks before the contest is over. If things go right for the
junior college, however, its pass defense will enable it to offer some kind of resistance against
the heavy junior college line, averaging about 200 pounds per man, will give any prospective
-King's ground gainer plenty of trouble. .
The one thing that may be a handicap to the Ralston club is the fact that the two alternate
quarterbacks, Jack Reese, former Forty Fort gridder. and John Florewicz. erstwhile Hanover.gridder,
have been on the injured list and may not see much action. If this is the case. Francis I inkowski,
former Nanticoke gridman, will be used. The little quarterback gave an excellent demonstration
of what he’s capable of doing in the junior college’s last contest, when he ran over one touchdown^

of 2,000 at Kingston Stadium last
night. It- marked the first meelmg oi the two Wilkes-Barre insti­
tutions and the game was hard
fought from start to finish with
numerous penalties and pass inter­
ceptions checking drives of both
teams.
The unbeaten Bisons, coached by
George Ralston, had the edge in
the first half, but the Kingsmcn
came back with a hard-running
ground attack in the third quarter
to nearly pull the game out of the

night highlighted a preliminary pro­
gram leading up to this afternoon's
schedule of tootball contests in Wyo­
ming alley. Easily the outstanding
contest of the day is that scheduled
between Kingston and Meyers High
.School elevens on the former's
grounds.
Sharing the spotlight in last
night’s exhibitions was the contest
between Gz\R and Plains High
Schools at Artillery Park in which
GAR came from behind to score a
well-earned victory. 19 to 7. Once
out in front the Grenadiers kept
aacbhR to their point advantage but
the Township squad was dangerous
at all times.
Bucknell Scores Earlyi The college game at Kingston
stadium was deemed in the first

Following two weeks of inactiv­
ity. Bucknell University Junior |
College** eleven will attempt to
make it five straight in its un-j
beaten season tomorrow when it •
•will journey to Williamsport to
meet a reportedly powerful Dick-!
inson Junior College squad.
I Bucknell’s last contest, when itj
■ defeated King’s College 7 to 0 two j
I weeks ago. left the local junior |
college eleven in rather weakened i
condition as a result of injuries!
received during the battle. Mel
Barry, former Wyoming High cen­
ter and middle man for the juniori
•college, was taken out of the con­
test because of injuries received.
during the fourth quarter, but ex­
pects to be back in the lineup Sat-|
urdny. George Lewis, former FortyFort High gridder, also received
I injuries during the King’s contest,
but Coach George Ralston is
counting on the former Fiver
player to hold down’ his regular
guard position againt Dickinson.
; Dickinson has had a fair season,
'with three wins against two losses.
.The two losses, however, were to
teams who have been giving most
of the four-year college squads
plenty of trouble. The Williams­
port club lost its first contest to
I Teddy Casey's Mansfield State
Teachers College in the season
'opener. This is no indication that
(Dickinson is weak, as Mansfield is
;.second in the conference race for
I the Pennsylvana State Teachers
(College championship. Dickinson
lost its second game to Lock
Haven State Teachers, which was
'another contest where the heavier,
and more experience four-yenj^^.
^MU'llege club dominated.

■The winners had no trouble with
the Sem line in the early stages.
The teams went scoreless in the
first half. Bucknell got its break
in the third period when Al Darte,
former Sem gridder, intercepted a
pass. Pinkowski and supinshi were
the driving force. The former in
two plays drove to the five-yard,
stripe. Supinski charged through
center for the tally. Ed Nattras
placed-kicked the e.xtra point.
Hanover Township went to Dun­
more Stadium Saturday and took
a 25-7 drubbing front Dunmore.
The winners were out front most
of the way. Dunmore got to pay­
dirt in the first period. A power­
house drive started on the Han­
over 41 and carried to the eight.
Jimmy Shea passed to Joe Galuardy for the score and Shea added
the extra point on a placement.
Hanover tied it up in the second
period with an 80-yard run by Bob,
Durand from his own 20. Durant,
kicked the extra point.
Dunmore added three more
scores in the Imai period. A Dunmore drive started on the Hanover
40 and went to the 22. Shea tossed
to Dougherty tn the end zone for
a score. Then DeSan'.o intercepted
a Hanover pass on the 35 and ran
.40 yards to lateral to Owensjito

King’s to Play
Bucknell Five
King's College basketball team,
under tl.a direction of Tom Brock,
will place Its unbeaten record on
the block Saturday night at the
i local YMCA when it will engage
the Bucknell University Junior
College quintet in what promises
to be one of the top contests ’
on the week's valley basketball ■'
; So far as post records go the :
Kingsmen will be the favored club,
i but according to the Buoknell
coach. George Ralston, the junior
college quintet will be out to stop
the winning streak that the Catho­
lic college has been enjoying.
This will be the second meeting
of these two quintets. In the initial
contest between King’s and Bucknel), the Kingsmen won, 52 to 42,
when a last-period rally put it in
the lead after trailing for three,
sessions.
Ralston has been working hard
for the past week in order to work,
out some kind of defense that1
might be used against the highscoring twins, Bob Mulvey and
Tom McLaughlin. During the last
contest between these two schools.!
it was the points compiled by the
two nee cage stars that upset:
Bucknell.
This will be the last chance the
Bucknell fans will have to see the:
junior college quintet in action as
y\its five remaining games are
^scheduled for out of town.

Students Hear
Willies Dean
Ralston Says We Live!
In ‘Securocrats’ Age
We Jive in an age of “securp-i
craLs" Dean George F. Ralston told
students in the Wilkes gym yester-.
cay; an age when material secur-1
ity has brought to man fear of’
challenge. "Yet the only truly sc-;
cure are the self-reliant, those of,
the common men who take unto,
themselves that kindly liberal edu-»
cation which once was limited to.
the aristocracy.
"The guiding upper classes of
yesterday differed from the com-;
mon man not so much in worldly)
goods as in liberal education, a
liberal education the triumphant;
common man of today to such a.
great extent lacks and which dooms i
him to an existence of perpetual;
adolescence." said Ralston.
The technology of the common,
man may have changed, but his;
habits have not. Our mass-producec,
common men of today can earn,
livings, true; but they cannot live.;
“Hysterical pursuit of materia),
gain,” Ralston noted, "is an admis­
sion of the fact that we are onthe wrong track, that we have mis-.
taken mere change for progress." ;
Man. however, does have within1
himself the power to solve his,
problems, to gain true security, for;
;he has the power to improve his;
intellect, which is actually, as well)
a« literally, the ability to discrim-

gain true security." he said.',
“man must not only improve hit:
Intellect, but his knowledge of
human beings: his knowledge of\
both himself and of others. Too.,
he must discover for himself some,
concept of the spiritual, some!
ethical principles, some realization,
that he himself is not all in all.
’^.^‘"RahtoT^aoneiuded..

“the common man will achieve true,
security when he has assumed the.
mature character, attainable only
when man has become reliable, difprinciples. Perhaps, of these, the
last is the most important, for the.
selfless man is truly secure; the
selfless, yet self-reliant" -

many may have witnessed Al’s p-.rtrava’. of

SYLVIA ROTH (Lady Macbeth) has
played in the Y.M.H—A. production of "Out
of the Frying Pan”, was in plays at College
Misericordia and participates! in dramatic?
at Swoyerville High School. This talented
young miss who is mir.oring in Dramatics
show.-, much promise as an up and coming
versatile actress. Her cooperative spirit
and thoughfulness are to be admired- Ap­
proaching the role of Lady Macbeth with
humbleness but fervor, she has made the
“venom” in the role live.

RALPH F. HODGSON (Macduff) com­
monly known as "Duke” about the campus
ably projects his emotions into the role of
the tragic Macduff. A native of Plymouth,
“Duke" while in high school had the lead in
“Ever Since Eve", participated in the an­

oratorical contest. Duke is no newcomer
to dramatics at Bucknell, having last been

to an excellent performance by him.

(Continued on page 12)

man created plays which today, over 325
years later, still have such dramatic appeal
and fundamental truths that they compare
favorably with the drawing power of plays
with up-to-the-minute themes.
Shake­
speare’s plays are certainly dated as re­
gards language and costumes, but, in the
essential matters, in the observation and
portrayal of human nature, conduct, and
relationships, what Shakespeare wrote is
as true today as it was in the times when
he wrote it.

This past winter saw the English “Old
Vic" touring the United States playing
Shakespeare in repctory—and n successful
tour it was. Last season, Paul Robeson
played a magnificent Iago to enthusiastic
audiences. Maurice Evans took Shakespeare
to the GPs overseas and made a hit in his
performances. A Winter’s Tale appeared on
Broadway in 1945, and in the same year,
Margaret Webster gave a well-received
Tempest. These are examples chosen at
random, but they illustrate how Shake­
speare holds his own in competition with
more recent plays. The people who went to
see these productions are the same ones who
supported Oklahoma, who made State of the
Union so crowded it was impossible to get
tickets. Shakespeare is alive and being ap­
preciated today.

Our own plays have had interesting his­
tories. Twelfth Night was written about
1000 and had its first production certainly
by 1G02. It has had different adaptations
and has been subject to varying interpreta­
tions, even being made into a “pseudo­
opera.” Some famous stars who have ap­
peared in it are Ellen Terry, Jane Cowl, and
Julia Marlowe. Macbeth has been alive to
many audiences. The latest production of
it was Margaret Webster’s in 1942 in which
Maurice Evans starred. The theme of Mac­
beth has recently experienced a new popular­
ity. There is a close relation between it and
the psychological mysteries that are draw­
ing such crowds at the movie box-offices.
The Taming of the Shrew is classed as one
of Shakespeare's earlier, experimental com­
edies. It has survived various rewritings
and sequel-writings oy other authors, an
operatic presentation in 1828, and an adapta­
tion by Gai rick. Today it is popular with
British and American audiences in its orig­
inal, if cut. form. Famous names gleaned
from its programs are Walter Hampden,
Maurice Evans, Lunt and Fontanne.

We of Bucknell University Junior College,
perched on the brink of expansion, and
eager to bring bigger and better drama to
Wyoming Valley, feel that this is an opportune moment to look at the dramatic activi­
ties and organizations of other colleges in
order to evaluate objectives ar.d purpo.-^s
with which to develop our theater. Realizing
that ours is a small institution in comparison to the universities which have developed
tneir theaters to such a degree that we still
feel that we have long strides to take with
which to catch up.

Let us take a brief look at what other
campus have done in dramatic fields. One
of the trends is toward the small intimate
theatre playing longer runs.
At the University of Seattle in Washington, they
now have three small theaters, the larg­
est seating no more than 220 spectators.
The first is called the Try-out Theater and is
used for try-outs of new plays written by
new plny-wrights, several of which have
been given subsequent Broadway recog­
nition. The second is called the Penthouse
Theater, and is luxurient with overstaffed
armchairs, and an arena-type stage. This
house is used exclusively for modem come­
dy, Noel Coward’s Hay Fever being a typical
presentation. The third theater is called
Show-Boat, and here are presented general
dramas as classics, comedy, old and new
plays. The major participants tn all proauctions are drama students majoring in
theater but try-outs are open to all of the
student body, faculty and alumni. It is
significant to note here, that the extra work
involved in dramatic activity has not in any
way effected scholastic ability since the fif­
teen wars that this plan has been in effect
has been sufficient time to disprove the
criticism of constant dramatic production
endeavors in colleges.
Conspiciously fine work is being done at
Carnegie Institute of Technology Theater
School and at Georgetown University,
Washington, D. C. Georgetown University,
too, has a small house, and the usual production runs from two to six weeks. Tickets
for Georgetown plays are at a high premium
and it is not an unusual event when drama­
lovers of the District of Columbia are unable
to purchase seats weeks before an opening.

We feel that Wyoming Valley with its
500,000 inhabitants definitely calls for a
widening of cultural horizons, and the cre­
ation of living theater for people who believe
in the beauty that breathes from knowledge.
Some of us working from Chase Theater at
present believe that we have an ideal medi­
um in this tiny house where expression can
so easily be read, and where accoustics are
no problem, to give this kind of theater to
the student and the public, whose only con­
tact with drama has been with the motion
picture. Our undertaking will only be as
good as its poorest actor or most forgetful,
irresponsible stage-hand. But theater de­
mands and creates its own “esprit-de-rorps ”
and if enough of us want a vibrant, contributive theater as an important step
toward a progressive, cultured community,
it can be attained.

would slip to the ho-hum class . . . Lindsay

Not to be missed is Ethel Merman in Irving

that the coming contest with the

A little praise should be given to Joe Savitz, who is one
of the most active members of the council. Joe seems to spe­
cialize in arranging for the junior college’s dances. He was
instrumental in arranging for tonight’s affair, which is be­
ing sponsored by the Lettermen’s Club, and also did most of
the work in connection with bring “The Man Who Plays The

COUNCIL SCORES AGAIN

All one has to do to be sure that there is a competent
group handling student affairs at Bucknell is to attend one
of the Student Council’s meetings.
Everything about the
meetings suggests sound handling. John Reilly, president of
the organization, has complete control during a meeting, but
does not exercise his powers to the point where one feels that
he is unreasonably dominating the session. Outsiders are
given a chance to take part in the meetings, although such
proceedings are not called for the student constitution.

Dr. C. B. Reif

........ Mary Porter, Sylvia Roth

Several issues ago we mentioned that the junior college
could at last boast of a Student Council and the recent an­
nouncement that Charlie Spivak, one of the key-men in the
musical world, would bring his orchestra here on May 24,
proves the statement. The council handling school govern­
ment at the present time is definitely for the school and
students.

When at the turn of the Century the southern star went out, the
heart of Italy for a moment, stood still. It lost, and knew it lost a

The hardy, peasant-born master could have rested on his earlier
laurels, but with characteristic vigor, in the last few years of his
life, he gave the world his two greatest masterpieces: Othello and
Falstaff both based on Shakespeare, his favorite dramatist. Falstaff
was his only work in the lighter vein, reflecting rn a measure the mellow
philosophy which he himself finally attained.

Thorough bush, thorough brier,
Over park, over pale,
Thorough flood, thorough fire;
I do wander everywhere,
Swifter than the moones sphere;
And I serve the Fairy Queen,
To dew her orbs upon the green.
The cowslips tall her pensioners be;
In their gold coats spots you see.

Those be rubies, fairy favours;
In those freckles- live their savours.
I nust go seek soae dewdrops here,
And hang a pearl in every cowslip’s

Festival Song of Praise

Felix Mendelssohn

Originally for male voices, this number was adapted for
mixed chorus with orchestral accompaniment by Professors Ernest
Harris and Harry Wilson.

Selve, voi che Le speranze..................................
Forest, thy green arbors invite me to repose and joy.

AHI, Troppo E Duro

Rom (1615-1673)

Monteverdi (1567-1643)

Thy cruel sentence is too harsh; farewell stars, sunlight, and
heaven, pity me.

CHi Vuole Innamorarsi................................. Scarlatti (1659-1725)
The man who would turn lover should greatly think it over.

II
Mentbe Ti Lasqo................................................................................... Mozart
As I leave you, my beloved daughter, in my heart is fear and terror.
Goodbye, oh what torment.

III

Uber Nacht................................................................. Sturm-Wolf
In the night comes care and grief . . . comes healing peace and joy;
in splendour dawns the morning but God ever stays near us.
UNDWILLtSTDU DEINEN LtEBSTEN STERBEN SEMEN .
Heyse-W/’olf
Do not torture thy lover by braiding your golden hair, my dearest,
let it flow down thy shoulders in silken ringlets. How beautiful
it is.

Auf

Balcon.......................................................... Heyse-Wolf
”
"
From her balcony, my fair one sends her glances to me. With ncr
her
eyes she is friendly, but with her finger she says no.

dem grunen

I-USSREISE
Morike-Wolf
At break of day 1 take my fresh c
cut staff and walk through woods
and over hills. My soul is enraptt
stored at the song of the birds and
the beauty of the morning.

IV
Eros

Benzon-Grieg
Hear me ye northern born hearts, cold as snow, yc who seek peace
in resignation, ye wander blindly — cherish and love your beloved.

Ein Schwan.................................................................... Ibsen-Grieg
My swan with snowy white feather glided among the rushes and
never a song did he sing me; yet at dying with sweet song he
charmed me; was he only a swan then?

E1N Traum ............................................................................. BoJ.ruledl-Gri.g
In dreams 1 had a vision fair, 1 loved a maid with golden hair, the
wood bird sang, the streamlet flowed. Here did the truth become
a dream; here dreams became reality.

���Each year at occasions such as this, the air is rife with
advice. If you are familiar with Pickwick Papers, you will
recall that Sam Weller, on being addressed by a stranger
as, “my friend," was at once highly suspicious. "You are
one of the adwice gratis order," Weller thought to himself,
r you wouldn't be so fond of me all of a sudden.” This
“adv

in V'

There's one thing new I want to state:

The “dogs” hcii'e had a good long wait.
And so they have! We know this to be so, and the

is the highest we know and freely offering up to it the best

Most of us declare against these philosophies and for
the philosophy of idealism, yet we do not seem to have the
inner strength to choose. “It takes courage." John Stuart

It is my firm belief that something of .*1^,
greatest value, will be found in reaffirming :r.

And it takes more than an orderly mind to make right
choices. After all, an orderly mind can leave a person un­
certain about the purposes of life. There are many examples

The philosophy of idealism upon which our American
way is built is the philosophy of the potential tn each
human being as an individual. It is not a philosophy of
things. Lest we mistakenly exchange our true idealism for
material things and persist only in quantativc factors like
physical comfort and pleasure, let us recall the warning of
our American poet Stephen Vincent Benet:

You w ill not be saved by General Motors
You will not be saved by prefabricated houses
You will not be saved by dialectic materialism
You will not be saved by the Lambeth Conference
You will not be saved by vitamin D
You will not be saved by the expanding universe
In fact, you will not be saved!
If you balance the books on American achievements
and disregard all that has been written about American
shrewdness and inventiveness and our concentration on
material things, you will find that our inventions are as
much intellectual and spiritual as they are physical. Back
in 1897, Dr. Charles Elliot of Harvard bore out the philo­
sophy of American idealism when he wrote of America’s
five great contributions to civilization. “Five contributions
of America constitute our heritage,” he wrote, “the keeping
of the peace, religious toleration, universal suffrage, the
welcoming of newcomers, and the diffusion of wel

“These I submit have much to do with the aim ol material
prosperity." he continued, "hut they are essentially five

enterprise,

and justice over passion, selu
’ifishness, inertiiicnness, timir

”

distrust."
You see, beneath what Elliot says, there lies strong
ethical sentiment nnd a strong moral nnd social purpose.
And it is to this that I earnestly summon you today. The
chall
llcnge is not easy, for in these days, I believe it is increasing
isingly difficult to distinguish between better and worse
in die
uiO iworld of religion nnd moral values. Why Ls this
so? My own impression
ii
is that we have hopelessly confused the lawv of things with the law of mnn. We have
naively assumed that somehow scientific truth has greater
claim to ret
lality than intuitive truth; that what we can
measure in micrometers is more true than what we can
measure with feelings; that the intelligence of the heart
and the ideal of love are less respectable than our concept
of the ai
itom.

The challenging question for you and me is whether
we can learn to educate our hearts as well os our heads —
whether we can combine mentality with morality. I tell
you, graduates, a future worth contemplating will not he
achieved solely by flights to the far side of the moon. It
will not be found in space. It will be achieved, if at
all, only in our individual hearts.

— is the issue of ere

Each of you must

attempt, like Thoreau at Walden Pond,
“to drive life
c into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest
terms.”

Finally, then, we come to the heart of the matter.
Something of value, the sommum bonum of life, is to be
seen in man’s dignity — yoursl It is the basis, as we said,
of our idealistic philosophy. Simply stated, it is the belief
that man is the child of God, nnd that he holds within
himself some portion of divinity.
The concept of dignity has been crucial in the history
of western civilization which began in Ancient Greece,
spread over the Roman world. Western Europe and Britain
and finally to our shores in 1607.
The idea echoed in Emerson’s phrase, “Know Thy
Worth,” was born in the misty dawn of western civilization
and the concept of man's dignity and essential worthfulncss
was deepened by religious faith which advanced one grand
law — love of God, love of man, love of self. From the
meeting of the Greek secular idea and the Hebraic Chris­
tian law we have no less a principle than, “rule of life by
reason, in love of God, love of man. and of self.” The word
dignity embraces both concepts. In this grand idea will lie

It may help put our present problem,

and purpose in focus.
The progress of science has begun to give us an amaz”T and the major

and tile infinitesimal, new understanding of genetics and
the chemistry of life, new theories
---------to --r“ “
explain
the birth.
fife and death of stars. The understanding of this lot er
begins with the understanding of the fundamental parncles
of nature.

We now know some of the basic characteristics of
these elementary panicles of matter, the proton, the elec­
tron and the neutron. We know their infinitesimal size and
mass, their electric charge and their incessant motion and
kinetic energy. These ware-like panicles swirl eternally
through the vast reaches of space, guided by electrical,
magnetic, and gravitational forces. The Van Allan radia­
tion belt, e.g., is the result of protons radiated from the
sun and captured in Earth’s magnetic field.
For reasons still not known, these diffuse gases can
gradually accumulate in areas of the universe, slowly con­
densing as a result of gravitational attraction into vast
swirling gaseous nebulae. As an immense mass of these

protons and cievirons, in the form of hydrogen atoms,
condenses further and further, the temperature and pres­
sure of the mass increases until eventually the violent
conditions necessary for the hydrogen fusion reaction arc
reached. Thus a star is born — and thus begins the syn­
thesis &lt;’t new, .-.ore complex chemical elements by fusion of
:he simpler elementary particles.
Flic natural and strong repulsion of protons, because
of their rx-siiive electric charge, is overcome and they are
induced to combine, through sharing of neutrons, into the
nueb• if the other one hundred chemical elements of the
periodic :.’blc. This possible combination is an inherent
prop'.'iiy of the proton and neutrons, but can, inanfact, occur
under the violent conditions of temperature and
pressure in a living star.

I
t

Presumably, the earth was eventually bom as a bit of
‘fallout” from some violent perturbation of our parent star,
the sun. As the hydrogen fuel was gradually consumed or
ejected, the mass of incandescent gaseous atoms began to
cool slowly into the tiny cinder which is our earth, a small
rotdlttc to the sun, the latter itself a minor star among
millions m our galaxy, in turn but one of many galaxies in
the vast reaches of space.

I would like to suggest that one of the most amazing
secrets of the life process is the ability of a complex array
of molecules in a living cell to convert energy In such a
way as to reverse the normal laws of thermodynamics by
creating a fantastic and improbable order out of a chaos
of atoms and energy. In a sense, wc may say that human
society is in fact analogous to a system of living cells in a
living organism. In the same sense that the biological cell
uses the coded information in the DNA of its chromosomes
to organize and control its activities, so human society has
been evolving ideas and institutions to organize and con­
trol its activities. The human mind can creatively organize

Evolution has dictated that those biological organisms
can survive which can so organize their functions as to

not clear that this drive to order and organization is nowcrucial to our society if it is to survive the challenges it

Science has given man the key to cosmic energy, the
ability to shrink time and distance, the knowledge to com­
bat disease. Just as living organisms had to evolve more
complex control mechanisms as they grew ever more com­
plex, so our society must evolve and adapt or. as the in­
exorable laws of evolution dictate, it will become as ob­

the sabre-tooth liger. Incidentally, perhaps we should
require the cold (and hot) warriors among us to contem­
plate life-size statues of tyrannosaurus rex and the sabre­

would eventually register the ideai that these species did
not become extinct because of physical weakness. In fact,
it may have been their super-efficiency of destructive power
which doomed them — while the lowly earth worm and

In living cells, chemical compounds in great variety
and number are highly organized into a cooperative com­
munity necessary to accomplish the complex functions in­
volved in the life and reproduction of the cell.
In the vegetable and animal kingdom, living cells, the
fundamental units, associate into living organisms to elab­
orate the amazing variety of living beings, each with its
multitude of cells organized and controlled to serve pur­
poses necessary to the life and function of the whole. And,
certainly, a human being is a vastly different organism
than an equal weight of amoeba!
In the human kingdom, the most recent addition to
this evolutionary hierarchy, the human being is the “fun­
damental particle." He has gradually overcome natural
repulsions and antagonisms to organize more complex
social structures, the tribe, the city state, the kingdom, the
modern nation state. In each case, the forces of coopera­
tion bound larger and more complex units into a living,
functioning whole. The family was the basic unit when
hunting natural foods was the basis of survival. When
agriculture evolved, a more complex organization into
tribes was required. As civilization evolved and trade be­
came important, the ancient city state became the basis
of political organization. Now these institutions have
grown into the modern nation state and the modern corp­
oration.
Today,. havir
ving drastically modified our environment
by releasing" cosmic
&lt;
forces here on earth and by substantially altering
ing the natural conditions which in the past
controlled the
t
human population, new adaptations are
vital to survival. We must use the vital force of love, un­
derstanding, human compassion, or more baldly, the basic
urge of life to survive and create, to overcome our natural
antagonisms and conflicts in order to cooperate in the
building of world order and world-wide law — or our
evolutionary experiment, as with many in the past, may
well be terminated by extinction.

There arc those among us who are opposed to such
ideas on the basis they may destroy our constitution and
undermine our principles. I would just say this for their
benefit! It is crystal clear that while extinction is the pen­
alty of failure to evolve, successful evolution builds on the
past and docs not destroy it. Protons remain in atoms,
atoms remain in molecules, molecules retain their identity
and function in cells, cells retain their identity and func­
tion in living organisms. So must successful evolution of
social organization retain the identity and function of
individuals, of families, of local groups, of cities, of states
and of nations in a successful evolution of the United
Nations into an effective instrument of international law
and order, i.e.. a world federal government.

�Evolution in the physical and biological world has
been guided largely by the basic characteristics of the fund­
amental particles of matter, their mass, charge and wave­
like nature, as well as their response to electrical, magnetic,
and gravitational forces. To a minor degree, chance has
affected the process. The same may be said of social, polit­
ical. and economic evolution, with the important exception
that the evolution can now, at least to some extent, be
guided by the conscious and rational decisions of men. We
are thus the first unit in the evolutionary sequence dis­
cussed above which is able to guide its own evolution.

tXs you leave this place, it seems io me that it will he
something of value, yea, greatest value, if you will aspire
with all your heart, your soul, and your mind, to find out
what you are. who you are, your chief aim. These arc the
questions which Paul Tillich calls “the dimension in
depth." I am referring, unnpologctically. to your concept
of the divinity that lies within you. There is an observable
unconcern for this today and I think it is partially created
for us by the superficiality of the prevailing religious cul­
ture. To me. religion is the quest for that meaning which
has power to give shape to experience, purpose to existence,
and motivation and moral energy to the human experience.
Correlatives to it arc intimacy and ultimacy. finitude and
transcendence, nature and history, good and evil, the self
and tiie other, faith and doubt, despair and hope, life and
death. These questions are peculiarly and poignantly
human and we have neglected these, with a gross loss in
life’s real meaning the result. It is not a case of these ques­
tions having been asked and found to have no significance
— rather they have been found difficult and not asked.

Education in the liberal arts opens the mind to the
world of ideas. The mind, like the palm of one's hand, must
be open in order to give as well as to receive. A clenched
fist, like a dosed mind, tightens around itself and cuts off
communication. It breeds violence, hate, and perpetuates
prejudice, and leads ultimately to withdrawal from the
world of truth.

The arts, to flourish, need an open society'. Their mean­
ing is always linked with freedom. Skills and techniques
can be taught and acquired, but the arts, like religion, must
liberate the creative spirit rather than confine and inhibit it.

questions which Paul Tillich calls “the dimension in

of the divinity that lies within you. There is an observable
unconcern tor this today and I think it is partially created
for us by the superficiality of the prevailing religious cul­
ture. To me. religion is the quest for that meaning which
has power to give shape to experience, purpose io existence,
and motivation and moral energy to the human experience.

Seniors, the humbling, enlightening, and emancipating
encounter with the power beyond ourselves, which we call
God, is an exclusively personal matter; its realization and

interpretation depends importantly upon factors of human
origin, culture, and tradition. But the world vve tend to
adopt is one of things and is too impersonal. Religious
faith, hope, and love are personal responses to a personal
God and can thrive only in a personal universe. I fear that
too long we have excluded these fundamental questions
about the meaning and limits of personal experience.

Wanted then above everything else is something of
value. You will find it within yourself in the spirit of God
which dwells within. You are a creature of God. “Thou
has made him.” said (he Psalmist in answer to his question.
“Thou has made him a little lower than God.” And God
which dwells within you is love. So if the God of love
dwells within you there is an objective standard by which

you will be judged in secret. You will then develop a con­
science and you will meditate upon the law of God. Your
greed and self-centeredness will be effectively curbed; your
cupidity and desire will be turned to higher ends than those

terms about the material benefits that
the future might hold - all this while
remaining relatively unconcerned
about social problems. The Americans’
attitude was in marked contrast with

excessive emotionalism - was to contribute something to the community:

There is, also, the disappearance of

Once we could identify stuffed shirts
in high places and complain about
them; now it appears that substituting
a group image for the individual man
is a major national trend. Instead of
bad decisions by responsible officials,
we have mediocre decisions by anon­
ymous committees. Instead of leader­

of a Teapot Dome scandal, in which
a few scoundrels lined their pockets
at public expense, we have corporate

In the early years of this century

What are the big ideas of the present?
The surly and automatic anti-com­

exactly inspiring. Efforts to bring
about a return to religion, or to evolve
a new religious outlook, have been
feeble. One hears little intellectual
discussion on the campus for the sim­
ple reason that there is not very much
to discuss.
And in many of our leading institu­

In 1933 Dr. Bush left M.l.T. to become president of the
Carnegie Institution in Washington. D.C.. one of the
outstanding American scientific research organizations.
His administration was marked by increasing
effectiveness in research
irch through coordination with
other Institutions.
Dr. Bush was a central figure in the development of
nuclear fission, culminating in the utilization of atomic
bombs to bring the war to an end.
Dr. Bush is the author of Operational Circuit
Analysis (1929) and many technical articles, and the
co-author, with William Henry Timbie, of Principles,
now in its fourth edition. A collection at his
papers and addresses was issued tn 1916 under the
title Endless Horizons, with a foreword by the late
Frank B. Jewett. Dr. Bush's most widely known
publication is Modern Arms and Free Men. a
discussion of the role of science tn preserving

Not all. The poet may still create alone. The eae
may still, not often, produce new concepts in a tlo u* 1
The artist may have visions and transfer them to cam ­
in essential solitude. But the great structures and th’,
masses of manufactured goods which feed, clothe, hou^
transport, amuse, and arm a modern civilization are pn&gt;duced only when men command men.
The history of the relationship by which this has bit-n
accomplished is a seamy one. The slaves on which all the
old civilization depended were usually treated worse than
the cattle they tended. Under the feudal system thev were
given new names but treated as badly. The coming of the
industrial revolution, with its mill towns, children work­
ing to the limit of their strength, men and women held in
a bondage as secure as though chained because they could
not move or plan together, did not introduce man's cru­
elty to man; it merely made it more evident

We live in a different sort of world. Not everywhere.
Poverty still continues over much of the earth, with
man in bondage to his elementary needs, and it
will so continue unless and until man learns to restrict
his numbers. Poverty still exists in this country, and will
so continue until we solve the problem of utilizing the
work of the unskilled and the unteachable in an economy
where machines call only for skill. This country has a
higher standard of living by far than has ever before been
witnessed in the long struggle for living space and secu­
rity, higher by far than elsewhere today. And, in spite of
absurdities, skulduggery, ignorance, and sloth, this coun­
try will maintain its security and advance its material
prosperity. With this comes a whole new set of relation­
ships by which men control men, by which gradually men

Certainly :it is an age of applied science. But it is also
an age in which man’s relationships with his fellows are
undergoing a transformation as fundamental, as essential
to our safety and prosperity, as that of material affairs;
more so, for upon a successful and salutary evolution of
man’s methods of using men. upon the advent of better
ways of use, of transforming use into collaboration, depend the {permanence and vitality of the free enterprise
.•.stem which has made us great. It must be a bulwark
tinst retrogression and chaos as the complexity of life
mounts.

’ERE IS A FALLACY ABROAD to the effect that
, are two forms of culture, one based on science and
other on the humanities, and that these are separate
nound to diverge There are, indeed, two forms of
.’.ire. but no such distinction and separation as this.
e should ever separate in this way we would surely
■me inept at tackling our real problems.

*

Rainer let us consider two cultures on a more reasonable
I . is. The first form we may define on a pragmatic
■
It is the culture which is useful in dealing with the
■ ii !-s of the practical world. It is, more explicitly, that
■ . ledge and understanding which are the basis of wis­
dom in the conduct of our daily lives and in our influ­
ence upon the course of great events. It is this form of
culture which I here treat. Beyond it lies a second form
of culture which is not utilitarian. I will not forget this
second form and will return to it.

C ulture in this practical sense consists of a knowledge of
men. 'rhe first encompasses all of science, and all the
empirical day-to-day understanding of materials, methods
of using them, and the employment of power. By no
means ail of our knowledge of things has yet been for­
mulated in scientific terms. This whole field is becoming
broadened and deepened as we learn more about the
things we use, and about the way in which we ourselves
and all living things are constituted.

prehensible. At the other end of the spectrum lie subjects
little formulated ns yet into generalities and working
hypotheses, where the functioning of the human brain is
studied, and even the basic definitions, the premises on
which logic would rest, are vague and ephemeral. Our
pursuit of the knowledge of things has led us to a point
where not only is it becoming more and more abstruse,
but there are many more new things and new relations
to know than a single individual with his limited intellect
and his short life can possibly grasp.

Tlte second phase of pragmatic culture, the knowledge of
men, is also blossoming, though not yet in the spectacular
manner of the knowledge of things. That it will thus
blossom is inevitable as man learns better to understand
himself and his fellows.
AT THE ROOTS of both phases of pragmatic culture lie
classical subjects. Behind all the present wild expansion
of knowledge of things, classical physics, mathematics,
chemistry, biology still hold their essential place and
must be grasped before those who aspire to extend and
create in specialized areas can safely soar off the ground.

Similarly, in the knowledge of men the classic study of
the past still holds its traditional power. History, biog­
raphy. literature are still basic. The study of ways in
which men have for some thousands of years met their
personal problems and the relations with their fellows,
their successes and failures, their aberrations and their
abnormalities, their cruelties and their generosities, their
motivations and their blind surges, still forms the basis
on which we can contend with the problems of the present
day. It is well that in so doing we recognize that the
environment under which men act has altered radically,
for history can mislead unless thus qualified. We can
assert also that history which ignores all those who did
not live on the shores of the Mediterranean is not sound
history. The life and motivations of Ale^nder are not
more revealing than those of Genghis Khan, and the

so lh&lt;- sludy ot man progresses In economics,
political science, psychology, sociology, labor relations,
and a host ot other subjects. Here, too, there is expan­
sion and ramification, and there is a slow refinement. In
particular the bundling ot data, the statistics nt Hu- basis
ot many ot these branches, is being rendered far more
reliable and revealing Just os in the knowledge ot Hungs,
however, the scope of explicit knowledge of men and their
relations is becoming so wide and deep that an individual
confronted with its extent and complexity is appalled and
often discouraged.

BY NO MEANS all of culture is acquired by formal
study and the readings of books. The youngster of today
does not have to be taught how to diagnose a misfunction
in an automobile. One is not taught in school how to
confront a bully on a street corner. We learn by all of
our experience and, of this, formal study is only a part.
This is particularly true of the knowledge of men. Nelson
know men; this, more than the weight of guns or skill in
managing a crippled square-rigged ship, accounted for
Trafalgar.
knowledge was acquired by dealing with
men. Roosevelt knew men as a result of his experience
in prai.'ical politics, knew them perhaps better than he

eonomics, perhaps not; but it was this knowl­
edge that .niiit d him to the presidency at a critical time.
It is pcsto go about the world and leam little from
exchange - .. .a men of all sorts of background, education,
and experiences. But it is also possible to learn wisdom
in h ; -. i ' lelatic.nships without ever going to college, as
the mvss of many a leader attests. Common sense is
a much ca used term, but it connotes something valuable
and
: Hous which transcends formulas or expositions.
A .: it difference between men arises according to
wh.'il;: i they do or do not pay attention to their daily
ex; . i-.nvs, and this in turn depends upon whether or
not they are determined to learn.

smile at the old man whose race is run and who still
delves in his books and records; he exemplifies a deter­
mination which will cease only when he dies, and which
he will not abandon because it has carried him far and
gives him assurance that he still lives. Men differ in
their innate capabilities, in the intricate structure of the
cells of their brains, inherited from their ancestors. They
also differ greatly because of the ways they were molded

THERE IS LITTLE DOUBT that we in this country
can continue to enhance our material prosperity. Thenis great doubt whether we can perpetuate the blessings
of our democratic system, in the presence of racial prob­
lems, the power of pressure groups, ttie apathy of the
public, and failure on the part of the electorate to grasp
the essence of its own welfare. I do not include the
threat of communism, for I have no question that we ran
defend ourselves, militarily and economically, if we can
keep our own house in order. There is question whether
we can operate a welfare state, as we should and must,
without overdoing this salutary effort and forcing our­
selves into inflation or out of the competitive world mar­
ket. There is question whether we can arrive in time at
a statesmanship of the leaders of labor and industry
sufficient to achieve a just distribution of the fruits of
industry without demoralizing strife. There is question
whether as a nation we can develop in peace a palriotism
such as we demonstrate in war and on this basis work
for the true national welfare as a goal which submerges
petty jealousies and avarice. This will depend upon
t
whether we experience a spiritual renaissance - not
i unnecessarily in some formal sense, but in the sense of,

whether we fully know and understand men, "he r.

in a myriad of ways. Businessmen usually put their
mphasis on men but are seriously handicapped in these
t-chnical days if that is all they know. All professional

(o learn it. One of the primary features of a knowledge
of men is an understanding of how men of diverse talents
may best pool their knowledge in a common effort. The
diKtor, the architect, or the chemist cannot possibly know
all he needs to know for his professional work. He hence
needs to know how he can find out. More important, he
needs to be able - genuinely, honestly, generously - to
collaborate with those who know more than he on diverse
aspects of problems as they arise. The leader of a business
cannot possibly fully understand finance, labor relations,
accounting, marketing, production, trends in industry, the
com.- • of legislation, public relations, personnel. He can,
if r
able, gather about him a group that does thus
understand; the measure of his ability is largely his skill
in rk-ing so. It is well, it is even necessary, that he excel
pci::. :mlly in some field in order that he may have the

ma;

rests primarily upon whether or not he has their

No society can function well without privilege. No nation
can long endure unless those* who are privileged also
assume responsibility and are devoted to the nation’s
welfare. The privileges of birth have faded; the privileges
of wealth are taking new forms. Those who are privileged
today are those who have had full opportunity to learn,
who have been enabled to acquire culture. They are
still few among the great mass of the people and it is their
duty to lead. They are found in the professions, and
they are found in business, for management of business
is now a profession. The touchstone of a true profession
is ministry to the people, exercised with pride, insistent

We are at the beginning of a new revolution. Man is
today building machines tliat think, that can thus aid him
to manage the complexity which he has created. So far
these are simple machines - complicated, but not com­
plex. They aid him in his business computations, handle
for him great masses of data, and solve his mathematical
problems. But thinking machines are still in their in­
fancy. In time they will become mature. They already
compose music, play chess, translate languages, write
poetry - not well, for they are still young, but they will
soon be taught to do better. They can leam from their

Their memories are still limited but are growing, and
their memories do not fade. They can attack, and they
do, problems where the very magnitude of the data in­

necessary, or the subtlety of the economic interrelations
involved, render unaided man's attempts at solutions

Before I conclude, let me first speak of the rewards of
culture as we have thus far treated it. The rewards are
great but they do not come to every man who deserves
them. Many a wise man is struck down by ill-health and
ill-luck in the midst of a career. Many a one, also, aban­
dons a bright trail because of obligations to those he
guards. But even to all these there is a satisfaction if
they have labored well. The rewards are changing, they
are being revalued, and they are often misunderstood.
Holmes said, "The reward of the general is not a larger
tent, but command.” The true reward is not even com­
mand; it transcends command. Many a man who has
attained great power, by affluence or position, is not a
happy man. Many a humble man is hapj

“ 1964STILL I am not done. There is a culture beyond the
pragmatic culture we have thus far discussed. It is not
utilitarian, it is often misrepresented, it is indefinable
and it is essential to a full life. It can never be taught
although it can be exemplified. Often a technique can be
taught which will enhance its strength, but the technique
is not a part of the culture itself. This higher culture if
often mistaken for its artificial substitute: the passissuord
to the halls of the elect, the shibboleth which lias
os held
together a governing class, sometimes the only bulwark
against chaos among an immature people. To know

who has not known poverty, love, and war.” He left much

the song of the thrush in a valley oon a quiet evening, or
who has not pondered at the honkii

with abundance in talent... she won the coveted
title of "Miss Northeastern Pennsylvania."

Needless to say the young lady was very
proud ... and so too were we. for she attends
Wilkes College . . . namely. MISS JERRY JEAN
BAIRD.
Jerry, as she is known by her many friends, is
a Junior student at Wilkes working toward a bach­
elor of science degree in Business Administration in
Economics.
The Pageant in which Jerry earned this Title
was a Miss America Preliminary Contest, winner cf
which enters the "Miss Pennsylvania Pageant"...
in this case, Jerry Jean. The "Miss Northeastern
Pennsylvania" Pageant was co-sponsored by the
Junior Chambers of Commerce of Greater WilkesBarre and Greater Pittston.

Earlier we mentioned Jerry won the Talent
Award at the Pageant . . . which was earned
through her inspiring and moving dramatic reading of the death sentence scene from Maxwell
Anderson's "Mary, Queen of Scots." Adding
further authenticity to her presentation, she wore
the appropriate gown secured through Cue and

Curtain.
Jerry Jean is shown here immediately follow­
ing the good news announcement where she is
being crowned by Cheryl Lynne Kegley, Miss
Pennsylvania" for this year. Attending at left is
the former winner of the "Miss Northeastern
Pennsylvania" Crown, Karen Gerstein of Plymouth.

almost 350 choice recipes sub­
mitted by Wilkes personnel, in­
cluding college faculty members
and staff, faculty wives, and
.members of the secretarial
(staff. Some of the international
students have also contributed
Ireceipes for favorite dishes of
their homelands to add to the
foreign flavor of toothesome
delicacies from the kitchens of
some of the Wilkes faculty mem­
bers who come from other lands.
With the 'many interesting and
delectable recipes, some origi­
nal, contributted in the Ameri. can tradition, the cookbook is
a delightful and well-balanced
. collection. Benefits from the
■ sale go towards the club’s Elea­

The new cookbook is the sec­
ond edition of “Recipes from

�Wilkes Faculty Women Hold Luncheon
Ms. Patricia Young, chair­
person of tile National Coun­
cil of Churches Crusade Against
Hunger and an active advocate
of the rights of the world’s mi­
norities. was principal speaker
5t the annual luncheon meet­
ing of the Wilkes Faculty Wom­
en held recently at the Arena.
Master Hosts Inn, Wilkes-Barre,
i Ms. Young held the close at­
tention of her audience with a
vivid presentation of the cur­
rent status of the human agen­
da. Her charge is that people
who enjoy the benefits of a so­
phisticated society have a re­
sponsibility for the present state
of a world in which life has be­
come so perishable. The prac­
tice of reacting to crisis docs
not solve the problems of the
human race. Societies with the
capability of effecting change
must focus on global rather
than national concerns since,
whatever affects the people of
one nation, affects the people
[n all nations—“Vibrations are
Universal.”
Ms. Young dccribes the “life­
boat philosophy" of the affluent
nations of the world. Site said:
'.'If we continue to consume,
life support resources in our
present manner when
bil.iion people are already existing
,Bt starvation level, what will
be the impact of the projected
tpopulation by the year 2000? A
'.growing number of repressed,
deprived, underfed people will
rink the boat in their struggle
for survival. Mankind will per­
ish from lite planet Earth. Man­
kind has the capability to
achieve a balance between popu­
lation growth and the resources)
essential to the maintenance of)
productive human life.” The
speaker concluded her remarks
with a quote from W. H. Audpn,“If we wish to live, we'd
batter try.”
.Miss Casimir Tyburski, chair­
person of tlie scholarship com­
mittee, presented this year's
Eleanor Coates Farley Scholar­
ship Award to Marsha Stratton.
Miss Stratton, daughter of Mr.
and .Mrs. William Stratton of
Mountaintop, is majoring in
business education at Wilkes
College and plans to teach at
the secondary school level. She
is a member of the Wilkes De­
bate Team.
/Special recognition for con­
tinued support of the organiza­
tion was given to retiring mem­
bers by Ms. Charlotte Sours
outgoing president. Included in
the group is Dr. Charlotte Lord,
.Ms. Jaroslav Moravec. Mrs’
stanco Vujica, Mrs. Bonis Kas-I

Reviews 'Contemporary
Woman’ at Meeting
Konstantin Symonolewicz, head
of Sociology Department at Wilkes

Group last, night that “happiness'
in marriage is not attained with­
out a real interplay of personality!
and intellect.”
, Mr. Symonolewicz spoke on
(“Contemporary Woman” at a'
i meeting in Weckesser Hall. He j
, was introduced by Mrs. Harold I
i Thatcher, chairman of the group’s !
program committee.
•
i Mr. Symonolewicz, in citing the!
rapid rise in the divorce rate in
this country, said, “The chief
^■Ftause is a too romantic concept
! I of marriage and an excessive emo'l
hionalism.”
Some psychologists
l predict thatr by 1956, for every
dxvo marriages there will be ond
divorce.”

Mrs'

and Mrs' Charles Tay-

The afternoon of Wednesday,
October 19 is the time for the next
coffee hour.
• The coffee hour is an informal
gathering of students and faculty;
its chief purpose is to encourage
students to meet their instructors
outside of the classroom.
Mr. Partridge is father of
,
coffee hour at Wilkes College. Vf-‘ &lt; j
i came in contact with the idea id V
I the University of Pennsylvania,
and last year initiated the idea on
! our campus. During the spring
I term the coffee hour was very pop' ulai* with the students who found
that it not only gave them a chance
I to meet their instructors socially,
| but that the coffee (or tea if you
prefer) and cakes gave them a
lift in the afternoon.
The coffee hour is held in the
upstairs of the cafeteria. Women
members of the faculty or wives •
of faculty members pour. The first
coffee hour of this semester’ was '
held Tuesday, October 4. It was j
fairly well attended. The attendance
at each of the coming gatherings
is expected to be much larger.
I All are urged to attend next
i Wednesday’s affair. The hour will
be held once every two weeks, and
before Thanksgiving vacation there
will be two more gatherings, Thurs­
day, November 3, and Tuesday,
November 15.

W. W. G. SPONSORING
COFFEE HOUR THURS.

Another important Coffee Hour
is being planned by the Wilkes
Women’s Group, to be held Tues­
day, November 15, in the cafeteria.
The one held last Thursday, Nov­
ember 3, had a moderate turnout
of students; a majority of those
that did appear at this social gathwere the college athletes.
These
boys frankly admitted their love
for a good cup (or cups) of coffee
as well as their friendly chats with
members of the faculty and their
wives. A lack of Freshman students
was attributed to the mid-semester
exams. Since exams are over (for
a while), the W. W. G. is expecting
a large attendance, of students old
and new. Mrs. Edward Williams,
former instructress, stated that all
the faculty wives are anxious to
meet the students.
Last year, the Coffee Hours
were held only on Thursdays of
every other week. This year, for
the students’ convenience, these
social functions will be held every
other week on rotated days of
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs­
day.
The Coffee Hour was first start­
led at the suggestion of Mr. and
Mrs. Robert Partridge who thought
it would be an excellent idea to get
students and faculty acquainted on
an informal basis. Dr. Eugene
Farley wisely suggested that the
Wilkes Women’s Group, when it
was organized, should undertake
the Coffee Hour as its first project.
Mrs. Alfred Bastress is general
Chairman on the committee which
includes the following members:
Mrs. John •Chwalek, Mrs. Arthur
Kruger, Mrs. John Riley, Mrs. Ed­
ward Heltzel, Mrs. James Laggan,
Mrs. Edward Manley, Mrs. Donald
Kersteen and Mrs. John Cooney.
Hostesses for Tuesday’s social
hour will be Mrs. Welton G. Far. rar, Mrs. Charles Henderson, Mrs.
John Hall, Miss Lorna Holbrook,
and Miss Mildred Hull. These
women appointed to pour the coffee
are: Mrs. Eugene Farley, Mrs. Ed­
ward Williams and Miss Catherine
Bone.

V he said, “Lil the baskSbribe scandal broke last February.”
Among the evils the Wilkes ath­
letic director attributed to pro­
fessionalism were double stand­
ards in college admissions— “one
standard for athletes and another
for students” — the encourage­
ment of cheating, and practices
leading to the disintegration of
players’ personalities. “Profession­
alism has led to the recruitment of I
boys who cannot possibly profit1
from a college education,” he slat­
ted.
Ralston, who also serves as foot­
ball and basketball coach at Wil­
kes, poked holes in the argument
that winning athletic teams bring
glorious prestige and gifts to col­
leges and universities that' have
them. “Among the great univer­
sities, Harvard, Yale and Chicago
have perhaps the largest endow­
ments and the most enviable re­
putations. Are their football teams
among the top 10?” he asked.
“As for good small colleges,"
he continued, “did you ever hear of
William, Bowdoin, and Amherst
having winning teams?”
Quoting figures to show that 1
even big football schools lose
money annually on their athletic
programs, Ralston dismissed the
argument winning teams are a con­
siderable source of income. “In
1949,” he said, “the University of
Pennsylvania realized $432,000 on
football, $11,000 on basketball—
, and wound up the fiscal year with
a loss of $44,000.”
Ralston then turned to sugges­
tions for restoring amateur ath­
letics to “their rightful place in .
the American educational scheme." D z)
Reminding the women Plato had
characterized the mere scholar a s

of the Wilkes College community
again look forward to the pleasure of hav­

for another
series ol Sunday-afternoon concerts.
A considerable number of community
residents have already discovered that there

are competent performers among the Wilkes
College School of Music faculty members
and students featured in these concerts.
We hope that even more ol them will find
it possible this season to share with us the
privilege of hearing the best in old and
new music.
The first program—a concert by an artist
not directly connected with the College
is the only one in the series for which .

In 1950 Mr. Eaton won the $1,000
Chopin Scholarship awarded by the Kos­
ciusko Foundation, to which local concert­
goers who heard the 1949 Malcuzynski
recital at Wilkes College contributed gen­
erously. This year Mr. Eaton will contribute
the proceeds from his recital to the Wilkes
School of Music Scholarship Fund.

Miss Elizabeth Wiegand, chairman of the Education committee of Wilkes-Barre Business and
Professional Women’s Club, presents a $200 check intended to provide a partial scholarship for a
Wilkes College woman student to Mrs. Gertrude Marvin Williams, dean of women at the college,
while other members of the club look on. Left to right: Clare Roberts, past president of the club;
Mrs. Ernest Hogg. Ruth Gordon, Dean Williams, Wiegand, Mrs. Walter G. Arnold, president, and
Mrs. Walter D. Roberts,
In accepting the gift on behalf of the college, Dean Williams observed: “It Is very gratifying
for an institution such as Wilkes, which regards itself a community college, to learn in so pleasant a
way as this that important community groups are solidly behind It."
The local club has long assisted worthy area students through its loan fund, a project sparked
by the National Federation of Business and Professional Women's Clubs. During the last several
years it has lent money interest-free to at least 10 young women attending educational Institutions,
keeping the names of its debtors strictly confidential.
Under Miss Wiegand's leadership, the club's education committee succeeded this year in
developing the Wilkes scholarship fund along with the loan fund, from which deserving students
may continue to borrow. The club is hopeful of making similar scholarship awards to Wilkes wo­
men In the future.

The Wilkes College seniors failed in tfheir last chance to get
even witlh their professors last night at the Annual Senior
Speebacflie at the Wilkes gym. The senior cage team, dubbed the
‘’Monsters” (many seniors felt this name should have been given
hh- faculty quintet), fell victim, as usual, to the aggregation of &lt;
professors by a nip and tuck 39-38 score.
In the nightcap of the twin bill, the senior girls team,
"Mon&amp;terettes,” was defeated by the WOWS, Women of Wilkes.
As a drastic measure the young fems from the South River street
institution sent their cheerleaders into the fray. The rah-ra.ll
group, made up of four senior varsity cage performers gabbed
in the latest Paris creations, almost won the game, but the '
faculty women enaployed their secret weapon to win the game. ,
Tile weapon consist^ of two parts, mid-semester and final exami­
nations. The seniors played in fear of failing and many in at­
tendance felit that they laid down on the court, in fact several
times they did..
The cheerleaders, Jim Atherton, Lenny Batroney, Bobby
Hc-lbzel and Joe Sikora, charmers from way back, employed
Globetrotters tactics to good advantage and to the approval of
the crowd.
In the first game, the senior men were paced by Charlie
fiezza, who netted 15 points and Jim "Moss, who contributed 10.
Wrestling Coach John Reese and Assistant Footbail Coach Russ ,

I J Cagers Turn Cheerleaders
The Wilkes College seniors failed in their last chance to get
even, with tihciir professors last night ait the Annual Senior
Speotiaidl'e at the Wilkes gym. The senior cage team, dubbed the
'‘Monsters” (many seniors felt this name should have been given
the faculty quintet), fell victim, as usual, to the aggregation of •
professors by a nip and tuck 39-38 score.
In the nightcap of the twin bill, the senior girls team,
“MoristeretJtes,” was defeated by tire WOWS, Women of Wilkes.
As a drastic measure the young femo from the South River street
institution sent their cheerleaders into the fray. The rah-rah
group, made up of. four senior varsity cage performers garbed
in the latest Paris creations, almost won the game, but thefaculty women employed their secret weapon to win the game.
The weapon consists of two parts, mid-semester and final exami­
nations. The seniors pflayed in fear of failing and many In at­
tendance felt that they laid down on the court, in foot several
times they did..
The chdkrleaider.i, Jim Atherton, Lenny Batroney, Bobby
Heltzel and Joe Sikora, charmers from way back, employed
Globetrotters tactics to good advantage and to the approval of
the crowd.
In the first game, the senior men were paced by Charlie
16ezza, who netted 15 points and Jim Moss, who contributed 10.
Wrestling Coach John Reese and Assistant. Football Coach Russ
Ptoton. with help from Coaches Bob Partridge and George

i four games.

When you're asked to do a job1
for a club or organization either,
take it or leave it. Nothing is
more trying for a president or
chairman than having a person say,
l‘T don't see how I can manage it
'—but maybe I can get it done
somehow" or "Well, if you can't |
.find anyone else I suppose I can \
■do it.”
'

discouraging as a ".no.”

�This Is YOUR Orchestra —- It Depends on You!
Will you be one of the far-seeing citizens who make
this possible? The orchestra can exist for the widest
benefit of Wyoming Valley, only if the support of its
Family Membership is as broad and generous as possible.

The Wyoming Valley Symphony is entering its third
season with Ferdinand Liva as conductor and personnel
of local professional musicians and student performers.

WILL YOU CONTINUE YOUR SUPPORT?

There will be three concerts this year, as usual, provid­
ing a variety of music for different tastes, including a
Pop Concert at the end of the season.

WILL YOU BE A NEW SUBSCRIBER?

If you have already indicated your interest, keep this
brochure for information about the concerts.
Stressing family participation in good music, each ticket
admits two adults and one child.

The benefit to the community is two-fold —the exper­
ience for talented young people of playing with a live
orchestra, and the now recognized fact that a civic or­
chestra is not only a cultural asset but a requirement in
the field of future industrial interest in any community.

YOn Sunday afternoon, May twenty-second,
from three until five o'clock there will be
a faculty tea at McClintock Hall. The tea
will be in honor of Dr. Mary Craig who
is retiring this year.
This occasion is one of the "firsts" in
Wilkes history, since Dr. Craig and
Mrs. Gertrude Marvin Williams are the
first faculty members to retire. We
regret that Mrs. Williams will not be
present because she is spending the sum­
mer in England.
We sincerely hope that you will be able
to attend this important tea.

. completely renovated Kirby Garage. The red brick addition
connects the former garage and the old dormitory dining hall.
The new addition to the campus is at the rear of Chase and
Kirby Halls, off South River and South Sts.

In the lower panel are seen three of the rooms in the new
cafeteria. At left is the second floor room, capable of seating
200 students. Middle view shows the new snack bar, behind
which lies an ultra-modern kitchen. Bottom right is the homey
main dormitory dining hall, serving 200 out-of-town students.
Dr. Farley said yesterday. &lt;rWe have known that such a
structure was necessary for a long time, but until last year
we did not .realize how acute the need was. We are happy to
be able to provide such a dining hall and gathering place for
our students."
The building was constructed by Sordoni Construction Co.

LOAN FUND CREATED
BY FACULTY WOMEN
The Wilkes Faculty Women’s
Club has announced the creation of
a Girls’ Loan Fund for the women
students of the college. The plan
is already in operation.
The fund, which now has a capi­
tal of almost 50 dollars, is designed
to aid girls on the campus who find
themselves in minor financial cri­
ses. The money can be obtained
immediately, and may be repaid to
the fund at the convenience of the
student with absolutely no interest
charge.
The loan, which will be negotiated
through Mrs. Doane’s office, may
be obtained from Mrs. Doane, Miss
Jesse, or Miss Clark and will be
handled with the strictest confi­
dence.
Money for the plan was raised
through contributions of the Wilkes
Faculty Women’s Club to meet
what they thought was a real need
on the campus. Eventually, this
group hopes to increase the capital
of the fund.

LITTLE STUDIES
■rre contacted *
When a prominent resident of WHkes-Bari
a friend and associate in ‘the automobile busin
dncss about a
new cur, he was puzzled when he got what pr.
iractically was
a brushoff.
Competition in the car business being what. it is these
days, customers are given the red carpet treatment
it by dealers
and members of the sales force. But such was not
it the case.
witfi the prospect in this jnstiinee.
The prospect liked the car and needed one and isaid so
unmistakably. In fact, he actually sold himself, for• h
he recelved no encouragement whatever from the. denier
___ ivf who
finally broke down and agreed to let the motorb
1st have a car
at a later date.
"But do you think my enr will last'.’" Hie prospect
pleaded. "It has gone 70,0(10 miles."
Thn dealer assured him on this point and the num and
his wife drove away but not without misgivings.
On Saturday night, the mystery was solved and the
reason for tile stalling became clear at the testimonial
dinner friends of Eugene 1‘nrley gave for the president of
Wllhrs College on the occasion of his •’■"dll anniversary nt the
In Im of the institution, l or Dr, I nrley was the cusloincr
and .Joseph Lester of Kingston wn* the reluctant dealer.
What Dr. Farley diil not know until almost the end of
the gathering was that his friends decided to surprise hint
wilh a new car mid had contacted Mr. Lester when they
learned Dr, Farley was nvgolhitlng for one.
It simplified matter* lor his friends when they wt-re
able to pun hast the very enr hn wanted.
After llenbrii Levy mudi the prescnlalinit on behalf of
group. Dr. I arlcy, grinning and shaking hl* head, told

Elimination of all science students from science courses.

Ip.

In order to "stiffen up" requirements in the Department of Romance
Languages, it was proposed that all grades of A, B, and C be re­
served exclusively for those students repeating a course more
than once. It was also recommended that courses in Greek,
Esperanto, and Balanese be added to the curriculum. Recommenda­
tions approved except for Greek which was considered to be too
reactionary for a liberal arts college.

5.

All advanced courses in English, physics, mathematics, biology
and chemistry be taught by practice teachers in order to upgrade
the quality of collegiate instruction. Professor Hammer argued
that since it is the superior students who gravitate to teaching
they are well qualified to handle advanced level teaching. More
importantly, this experience would be particularly desirable for
those going into elementary education. Approved.

'p’nat statement in the section of t.re minutes portaininr to the library which roads ’'in case o. subsidence
from overstacked stacks" should be corrected to read
"in case of subsidence from overstacked students.

Are there further additions or corrections to the
minutes?

I have one correction to make: I am sorry to have
to report that the -1,000,000 grant came to 'Hikes
College erroneously; it shoul'" have gone to .lings
College.
Is there any old business?
Prof. Richards: It is irrational to regard mathematics as a science
because only a negligible fraction of a negligible
fraction is non-denumerably infinite. hence, the
generalized continuum is a consequence of the hypo­
thesis of the scientific domain and does not belong
to mathematics. Therefore, I should like to point°
out that the rocoim.iendation of the Curriculum Committee
having to do with the elimination of science stud ---ts
from the science courses, does not apply to the
Itathematics department.

MRS. EUGENE S. FARLEY

Mrs. Farley's Death
Saddens Community
In the three decades that she was'
a resident of Greater Wilkes-Barre, j
Mrs. Eleanor Coates Farley, wife of Dr.’
Eugene Shedden Farley, president of
Wilkes College, not only shared in his
interests as an educator and civic
leader, but carved a-career of her own
as a musician and good neighbor.
Wilkes-Barre was charmed by her
graciousness and artistry ' from the
onset. As modest as she was talented
and dedicated, she labored largely be­
hind the scenes, lending a helping hand
where possible to launch the local edu­
cational experiment.
Students at the College made her
acquaintance early when she served as
piano accompanist on their programs.
Later, the general. public made her
acquaintance through her guest ap­
pearances with the Wilkes-Barre Phil­
harmonic, through her support of the
Wilkes-Barre Community Concert As­
sociation and through her activities as
president of Wyoming Valley Woman’s
Club.
While Wilkes was struggling for a.
place in the community, Mrs. Farley
played a leading role, although the
spotlight was naturally on her husband
and his associates. As the official hos­
tess, she had a multitude of duties, in
the discharge of which she acquitted
herself with no little distinction. In ad­
dition to the formal functions, the door
of her home was always open to visitors
who were charmed by her manner.
It was no secret Dr. Farley leaned
on her heavily during the formative
years of the College and increasingly I
with the passage of time and mounting
responsibilities. She fitted into the I
popular concept of what the wife and
helpmate of head of such an institution
should be.
Her cultural contribution was, by
no means, limited to music. A poet, she
had a number of published works to her
credit. Her writings, to a large extent,
were circulated privately. She was also
a painter.
A native of Pitman, New Jersey,
Mrs. Farley called Swarthmore and the
Philadelphia area home in the early
years of her marriage, while her hus­
band was a student and teacher at
Germantown Academy and the Univer­
sity of Pennsylvania. For seven years
before coming here, she resided in
Northern New Jersey where Dr. Farley
was director of research for the Newark
schools. Thus, she had been closely
linked with education for more than
four decades, explaining her youthful
outlook and cultural activities.

Once again it is time to get back in the swing of college life and
Wilkes Faculty Women gatherings. The officers and committee workers
have been busy planning a year of activities which wo hope will be
educational, entertaining and helpful in getting to knot/ other people.

Our opening get-together will be a family picnic at Kirby Park on Sunday
September 14 (note change from college calendar), at 2 P.M. Everyone is
welcome. Come and bring your family, picnic lunch, and lawn games.
In case of rainy weather the picnic will be cancelled.

Sunday September 21, will be our tea. It will be held in the Center for
Performing Arts (C.P.A.) Building at 2 P.M. New people and officers
will be introduced. Our program for the year will be presented and you
will have an opportunity to get involved in the group.
On Thursday, October 23, a business meeting plus a program featuring a
speaker from Women Oi-g-v.'.is'd Against Rape will be held at the Faculty
House at 7s30 P.M. Put this date on your calendar now and come join us !

In November a Fifth Quarter Party will be held after the home game on the
15th. Heidi Holm will be sending details later.
Some other dates for you to keep open:

Mary St., Shavertown, October 4. The menu will be New England food.
We had some fine food and fellowship last year. Contact Mary Lou
Labows 868-3220 for more details.
Another group is the Book Discussion led by Dolores Casilli. Our first

THE INAUGURATION OF

ROBERT S. CAPIN
AS THIRD PRESIDENT OF WILKES COLLEGE

SUNDAY, OCTOBER 24, 1976
WILKES COLLEGE GYMNASIUM, WILKES-BARRE, PA.

�WILKES COLLEGE
The inauguration this afternoon of Robert S. Capin as the third president of
Wilkes College establishes reason to reflect upon the founding of the institution
some 43 years ago.

Wilkes College came into being in 1933 when Bucknell University, in re­
sponse to a request of community leaders, established its Junior College in
Wilkes-Barre.

Three years later, Dr. Eugene S. Farley was named director of the Junior
College and became the major influence in guiding the almost miraculous
growth of an educational institution from a few buildings in 1936 to its present

size.
Slightly more than a decade after he took over the reins of Bucknell Uni­
versity Junior College, Dr. Farley moved into a new role as the first president of
Wilkes College after the Junior College became an independent institution on
June 26,1947.

As a four-year, coeducational institution, the college has grown steadily and
selectively as an institution of higher learning, recognized for its quality educa­
tion and excellence far beyond the boundaries of influence envisioned by its
founders.

Slightly more than 9,000 alumni represent the College in the 50 states and
many foreign countries.

Dr. Farley stepped down as president in 1970 and began a two-year term as
chancellor. Stepping into the presidency was Dr. Francis J. Michelini, who
moved up from the post of dean of academic affairs. Dr. Michelini served for
five years, guiding the institution through the construction of the S7-mdlion
Stark Learning Center and leading the institution back to normalcy after the
1J72 Agnes Flood caused some $14-million damage to the campus.

Years have passed since Bucknell gave control of the-J^ior College to a local
Board of Trustees, guided by the late Gilbert S. Me

Wilt &lt; eget been guided hy the thai^rttfwtun^
in our community, our nation, and our world requires not only gn itvisl n but
warm understanding of peoples
In its small circle, Wilkes College brings together students of many fa tl
backgrounds and countries. Il encourages them to maintain their com. u m-tr.
and their loyalties. It provides them with the opportunity to create friendships
based upon respect for differences, and to adhere to those ideals that create

unity and good will amidst diversity.
While academic work is the basis of the college program, the fa&lt; ult&gt; recog­
nizes that academic training will be of
poitam e unless students emerge
as men and women of strong faith and fine character. In the words of John
Stuart Mill. ' Before you can make men doctors and lawyers, you must first
make them men."
Because of their interest and faith, friends have multiplied their support
during the past decades and the campus has expanded steadily so that it now
includes most of the properties facing the River Common. Constant effort has
been made to create a growing endowment to keep pace with the expansion

of the campus.
This is the background of Wilkes College on this day as a warm welcome

is extended to Robert S. Capin as its third president.
The new president who is a
tiffed public accountant, graduated from
Wilkes College in 1950 and n &lt; e-.ed 'us Master of Business Administration from

Lehigh University.

Today, as the office of president is passed in ceremony to Robert S. Capin,
it can e said that the goals to which the college was dedicated remain —■ a
soun an stimulating intellectual experience for students and a program of
service to the community.

A veteran of World War II, when he served with the U. S. Navy, President
Capin has had considerable experience in the business world before coming to
Wilkes in 1959 as an instructor. He moved steadily up the academic ladder to
full professorship in the Commerce and Finance Department in 1972.

the bachelor's
degrees and which may be
gold for doctor s degrees and the governing officers of educational institutions.

Although caps and gowns had been used in many Amerii an s&lt; hool
Colonial time. Il was not until about IE
was a widespread student
movement for their use at commencement ceremonies The fatuities were qu
to approve this practical and dignified graduation dress, and soon adopted for
themselves the custom o( wearing gowns at academic &lt; eremonies By 1895the
Intercollegiate Commission had prepared a code for academic costume which
was approved by 95 percent of r •
&gt; .m unr.ei itu-, .m&lt;l &lt; ollegcs.
( ode provides (or three types of gowns. Those worn by the bachelors
are black and have long pointed sleeve^
may wear either black silk or
woolen gowns, made with a long, (
ed t eve with an arc appearing near the
bottom and a slit for the arm. The doctor's gowns are usually of black silk with
full, round,open sleeves The i

-&lt;-t trim may be black or the same
color as the velv&lt; t wI &lt;h e... • s the hood. Although the color is normally black,
several institutions have autl &lt; r zed doctoral gowns in their school colors.

In the United State-- the hood is the most distinctive feature of academic
attire. Used originally as a cowl, as a shoulder cape, and as a container in which
to collect alms, it is now worn at the back, suspended near the shoulders. The
length of the hood and the width of its velvet border indicate the level of the
degree held. The bachelors wear a hood which is three feet long, with a twoinch velvet border. The hood for the master's degree is three and one-half feet
long, w ith a three-inch border. The doctor's hood is four feet long and the bor­
der is five inches wide. The inner lining of the hood is in the official color or
colors of the institution conferring the degree, while the color of the border
indicates the field of learning in which the degree was earned.

It may be noted that military uniforms and religious habits are appropriate
apparel at academic convocations.

Susquehanna River.
“Operation Snapback” represents
an all-out effort on the part of
students and college personnel who
responded to a plea for “manpower
and elbow grease” from the college
president in an effort to overcome
what had at first appeared to be
almost a fatal blow.
The name given to theproject by a
group of early arrivals to the campus
cleanup effort was the result of a
public plea by Dr. Michelim for
volunteers to assist in removing the
sears left by the flood.
The future growth of the college
and the efforts to keep the institution
at its present high level depended mi

agencies, alumni contributions, and

hit, had over $500,000 in book losses.
Many of the books were irreplace­

that represented many years of work
by individuals in research.
Stark Hall, the college science
center, was also hard hit, with close

and other equipment lost.

�created, the general economy was improving and old eye-sores were being
replaced by modem, attractively land-scaped buildings.
And then in a few hours we were inundated with flood waters and left
with inches of mud and material damage that had to be seen to be
believed.
But in the midst of this devastation neighbor helped neighbor and
Civil Defense maintained order and provided leadership in the midst of
muck, mud and devastation. In the midst of crisis we were united.
Now that we are slowly recovering may we maintain and enlarge this
unity. May we unite to restore the beauty of our Valley while we strive
to rebuild our homes and our industries. If we possess the vision, the will
and the desire, we can, in cooperation with our neighbors, our state and
our federal governments, restore the best of the past. And while so
doing we can create a more beautiful and wholesome environment.
This is a dream but America was built by dreamers who were also
doers and our Valley was being rebuilt by men and women of vision
who also were doers. Can we not work to sustain this dream?
There are many agencies at work to provide the instruments for new
growth. Let us work with them to build a new and better economy and
a more beautiful community. It can be done if we envision it and
possess the will to do it.

�MANY THANKS..
Now that it is all over, many of the people who were
involved in the inauguration of Dr. Francis Michelini can

breathe sighs of relief, and know that we all wish to express
our deep appreciation for a job well done.
Although we could never hope to include all those who
deserve an expression of thanks, surely among those who

deserve out appreciation are:
— John Chwalek, the coordinator of the entire affair
— Micki Stella and the host of secretaries on campus who
helped so well
— Dr. Charlotte Lord, whose programs were all delightful
— the members of the overall inauguration committee,
who eventually numbered nearly 30, and who planned since
July for the awesome event
— The co-chairmen, Thomas Kiley and Ralph Rozelle
— the Honorable William Scranton who delivered a fine

main address
— the delegates and guests
— Drew Gubanich and Aldo Farneti who supervised the
student participation and rate A's for the efficiency displayed
— all the other students including Bill Kaye, the
Lettermen and Letterwomen Clubs, Circle K, Theta Delta
Tho, the international students who performed, the class
presidents, members of SG and I DC, all those who helped
with displays of every sort, the ushers, parking attendants,
hosts and hostesses, and so many more ...
— Dean Jane Lampe who planned the beautiful receptions
— Bill Denion and the cafeteria staff
— Charles Abate, Nelson Carle and the entire maintenance
crew
— Bill Gasbarro, Raymond Nutaitis, Richard Chapline
and the music department
And also
— Dr. Eugene S. Farley, the Board members, the faculty
(some of whom served as "Ambassadors of Good Will"), Mrs.

John Chwalek, the faculty wives, the public relations staff,
and especially,
— Dr. Michelini and his family — who are the sort of
people who make us want to do so well!

                <text>This scrapbook looks at some of things that Wilkes women faculty put together and orchestrated from 1971-1972. The women set up things like brunches, picnics, meetings, scholarships, and more. Interestingly, there is also a recipe for a apple coffee cake from Ginny Orlowski that was served at the brunch because a lot of people were “raving” about it. In here they also gifted a scholarship to Gretchen Hiller and Joyce Adrejko.&#13;

�Faculty Seminar Announces
8 Meetings for This Year
The Wilkes Faculty Seminar
schedule for 1968-69 has been announced with eight meetings set
between October 18, 1968 and May
9, 1969.
Now in its twelfth year, the Faculty Seminar was organized to provide the faculty with an opportunity for interdepartmental and interdisciplinary exchange of ideas. At
each meeting a faculty member presents a paper or introduces the
topic in a less formal manner. After
a brief refreshment period, discussion follows.
The meetings are held at 7:45
p.m. in the Center for the Performing Arts and are open to all members of the Wilkes faculty, their
families, and their guests. Students
wishing to attend a faculty meeting

TRIBUTE TD A CREATOR
For more than three and one-half de­
cades Dr. Eugene S. Farley has played the
role of educator, College President, coun­
selor to students, father-away-from-home
and No. 1 supporter of everything that was
good for his students.

He has congratulated thousands for

as much as he did while they were in his

the debt by holding a testimonial

Dr. Farley is Wilkes College. Those who

�president’s letter
VOLUME 15 | ISSUE 1

Welcome Back

I

am pleased to share with you the winter 2021-2022 edition of Wilkes
magazine, my first as president of Wilkes University. Much has
happened since our last issue and the pandemic continues to create
uncertainty. Above all else, we hope that you and your families are
remaining healthy and safe.
On the following pages, you will see that Wilkes has slowly and safely
reintroduced some normalcy to our campus. I was honored to be formally
installed as Wilkes president on Oct. 1. An inauguration ceremony is much
less about any one individual and much more about celebrating the greater
Wilkes community. It is setting a vision for the future and reinforcing our
commitment to those we ultimately serve—our students. It was a moment of
pride for our University and a humbling one for me personally. Thank you
to all who shared in this event and sent well wishes.
We also held our first in-person Homecoming
Weekend since 2019. Everyone on campus
worked tirelessly to host safe, outdoor
experiences. The photos on the following
pages show that the weather was certainly in
our favor. After a year in which many events
were canceled or held online, we have an
incredible lecture series this year. In April,
Wilkes will welcome presidential historian
and author Jon Meacham as part of the 40th
anniversary of the Max Rosenn Lecture Series
in Law and Humanities. Two days later, Wilkes
hosts the one and only Margaret Atwood. The
author of more than 50 novels, including The
Handmaid’s Tale, will speak as part of the spring
President Greg Cant
Allan Hamilton Dickson Writers Series. Learn
more at wilkes.edu/lectureseries.
Finally, we want to thank you for your patience as you awaited the next
issue of Wilkes magazine. For nearly two years, university personnel have
been united in our mission to create a safe environment, focusing on the
most pressing priorities. Though the pandemic continues to remind us of the
importance of those we hold dear, it is lovely to resume many of our typical
activities. It also gave us an opportunity to reflect.
The format and frequency of Wilkes magazine will likely change moving
forward. But our commitment to you, our valued alumni and friends, has
never been stronger. Thank you for all
the ways you supported us during these
challenging times. Your kind and generous
spirit continues to transform the lives of
our students. We are forever grateful.
And we are Forever Colonel.
Greg Cant

Bonner Leaders
Program Welcomes
First Students

WILKES | Winter 2021–2022

Wilkes University welcomed
its first eight students into the
Bonner Leaders Program, a unique
work-study initiative that blends
community service and leadership
education to inspire students to
become service leaders at Wilkes and
in the greater community. Wilkes is
the only university in northeastern
Pennsylvania and one of just eight
in the state to offer the serviceleadership program to students.
The Bonner Leaders Program
at Wilkes was made possible by
alumnus and attorney William
Bush ’68, who has served on the
board of the Bonner Foundation
since its inception. A longtime
advocate for students who are the
first in their families to attend
college, Bush helped connect
the Bonner Foundation to
the University.

“It is a program that
perfectly aligns
with the Wilkes
commitment to
hands-on learning,
individualized
attention and
community
engagement.”

“Mr. Bush’s encouragement, support and guidance were instrumental in our
decision to move forward with the Bonner Leaders Program,” said University
President Greg Cant. “It is a program that perfectly aligns with the Wilkes
commitment to hands-on learning, individualized attention and community
engagement.”
The Bonner Leaders Program is a progressive four-year experience that
blends direct service in the community with enrichment and training activities
designed to promote leadership, self-awareness, professionalism and public
service. The four-year program culminates in a senior capstone project where
students conceive, build and lead their own service project and inspire campus
participation. Students are compensated through work-study funding, providing
financial support for their education.
Bonner Leaders is a national, service-based initiative from the Corella and
Bertram F. Bonner Foundation. Founded in 1990, the Bonner Leaders Program
has grown to a multifaceted civic engagement and leadership program hosted
by a network of more than 70 colleges and universities. In Pennsylvania, Wilkes
joins schools like Widener University and Ursinus College to offer the program to
incoming students.

David Ward Named
Senior Vice President
and Provost
David M. Ward was selected as the
new senior vice president and provost
of Wilkes University, beginning
his new position in June 2021. In
this role, Ward serves as the chief
academic officer of Wilkes, leading the
University’s scholarship, programs and
initiatives, and working with the deans
and faculty of its six academic schools
and colleges. Ward was selected for the
position following a national search.
Ward comes to Wilkes from the
University of North Carolina at
Pembroke where he served as provost
and vice chancellor of academic affairs

from 2017 through 2020, leading
an academic unit that included 36
undergraduate and 17 graduate
programs serving a total 7,698
students. During this time, the
university experienced significant
enrollment growth and created a
shared vision around new program
development and retention.
“With six months under my belt,
I am more excited than when I first accepted the job,” said Ward. “Everyone
in the Wilkes community has made me feel welcome and perhaps more
importantly, has shared their ideas and energy for moving the University
forward. I see a very bright future for Wilkes University and am thrilled and
honored to be a part of it.”
Ward received his doctorate and master’s degree in public administration
from the Robert F. Wagner Graduate School of Public Service at New York
University. He earned his bachelor’s degree in political science from

$1.1 Million Collaborative Grant From
National Science Foundation Award for
Climate Change Research at Wilkes

Ned Fetcher

Wilkes University has been awarded part of a $1.1 million collaborative grant
from the National Science Foundation to study the effects of climate change
on plants. Ned Fetcher, coordinator of the Institute for Environmental Science
and Sustainability at Wilkes, is a co-principal investigator on a research team
that will study the effect of a changing climate on tussock cottongrass, dwarf
birch and tealeaf willow, all plants found in tundra ecosystems in Alaska. The
grant funds research titled “Collaborative Research: Plant phenology, local
adaptation, and growing season length in the changing Arctic tundra.”
Fetcher, whose share of the three-year grant is $456,716, will conduct
research with co-principal investigators Jianwu ( Jim) Tang and Gaius R.
Shaver of the international, world-renowned Ecosystem Center of the Marine
Biology Laboratory at Woods Hole, Mass., and principal investigator Michael
Moody of the University of Texas at El Paso. Wilkes undergraduates will
participate in the project as field assistants, spending up to 10 weeks during the
summer at the Toolik Lake Field Station, 170 miles north of the Arctic Circle.
The team’s research focuses on plant phenology (the study of cyclic and
seasonal natural phenomena), one of the traits most affected by climate
change. In the Arctic, plant phenology can alter how ecosystems function
at multiple levels. Previous research by Fetcher and associates identified a
significant difference in growing season length between northern and southern
populations of tussock cottongrass. This finding suggests that the phenology of
this species is under genetic constraint (unable to adapt).
“Changes in day length are responsible for many phenological events in the
temperate zone. This research will help us to understand how phenology is
controlled in a region where day length is 24 hours,” said Fetcher.

Quadrangle, McCann spoke to the creative writing students, read from his work
and was joined by National Public Radio book critic Maureen Corrigan and
memoirist Beverly Donofrio (Riding in Cars With Boys). The evening concluded
with book signings by the featured authors and also the authors from the creative
writing program. Wilkes offers a nationally recognized and widely reputed
graduate creative writing program where students and faculty find the writing
support, community and market opportunities to become lifelong, productive,
professional writers in all fields. The program boasts an impressive list of faculty,
advisors and friends.

Wilkes University and Geisinger have partnered to give
future pharmacists a jump on their careers with the Geisinger
Pharmacy Scholars Program. The program will reduce the
cost of education while recruiting highly skilled pharmacists
to work at Geisinger, one of the largest healthcare systems in
northeast and central Pennsylvania.
The Geisinger Pharmacy Scholars Program provides
qualified students with a guaranteed job offer within the
Geisinger system upon graduating from Wilkes University’s
Nesbitt School of Pharmacy. Geisinger also provides a
$20,000 loan as students enter their fi fth year of the six-year
program. Geisinger will forgive the loan for scholars who
remain employed by Geisinger for two years immediately
following graduation or the end of a post-graduate residency.
In addition, scholars benefit from a Geisinger pharmacist
mentor, as well as a Wilkes advisor, to help them navigate
their studies in addition to their fi rst year of employment.
“We are so pleased to partner with Geisinger on
this unique program that continues to advance Wilkes
pharmacists,” said Scott Stolte, dean of the Nesbitt School of
Pharmacy. “Wilkes University boasts job placement rates that
ensure our students achieve both economic and professional
success. The value of retaining the talents of our graduates
through the Geisinger Pharmacy Scholars Program cannot be
overstated, particularly in the midst of a global health crisis.”
“More than 25 percent of the more than 400 pharmacists
employed within Geisinger are graduates of the Wilkes
Nesbitt School of Pharmacy,” said Michael Evans, RPh, chief
pharmacy officer at Geisinger. “This is a natural partnership
that will help aspiring pharmacists achieve their career goals
and also help Geisinger recruit and retain much-needed
pharmacists within our communities.”
High school seniors admitted into the Wilkes
pre-pharmacy guaranteed seat program with a minimum
grade point average of 3.5 (or rank in the 90th percentile or
higher) are qualified to apply. Students must be willing to be
employed anywhere in the Geisinger system with locations
throughout northeast and central Pennsylvania.
Interested students can learn more about the program at
wilkes.edu/geisingerscholars or about the Nesbitt School
of Pharmacy at wilkes.edu/pharmacy.

WATCH
THE VIDEO

Erica Acosta MBA ’20, director of diversity initiatives in the Center for Global
Education and Diversity, was named Grand Marshal of the 4th Annual Multicultural
Parade and Festival by Wilkes-Barre Mayor George Brown. Mayor Brown also
announced that Sept. 25 would be known as Erica Acosta Day in Wilkes-Barre.
Acosta was accompanied by her five-year-old daughter, Elena, who received the pin
of Wilkes-Barre from Mayor Brown.
Acosta is a champion of diversity at Wilkes and also in the community. At Wilkes,
Acosta provides support and services for undergraduate and graduate students from
under-represented groups; is the co-chair for the Council on Diversity, Inclusion and
Equity; developed and implemented the Diversity and Inclusion Student conference;
and is the advisor to the Multicultural Student Coalition Club. In the community,
Acosta serves as the executive chair of the Wilkes-Barre branch of the NAACP and
vice chair of Wilkes-Barre Chamber Diversity Council.
When asked why having a multicultural event in Wilkes-Barre is important to
her, Acosta said, “Instead of focusing on what divides us, let’s celebrate what we have
in common. Taste each others’ food, listen to music and enjoy our cultural richness.
Wilkes-Barre is endorsing these types of events and we need to celebrate our cultures.”

$1 Million Gift Creates
Scholarships Opportunities
for Native American Students
Native American students wishing to study at Wilkes now
have access to more scholarship opportunities, thanks to a
$1 million gift from Irene Tomalis Stone, class of 1957. The
newly-established Louise Federovich Tomalis and William C.
Tomalis Endowed Scholarship is available for undergraduate
Native American students who may not be able to attend
Wilkes without additional financial support. African
American students can also benefit from the scholarship,
named in memory of Stone’s parents, Louise and William.
“My parents were first-born Americans who worked
very hard all their lives to be sure I had access to a good
education,” said Stone. “They always encouraged me and
were thrilled when I was given a scholarship to Wilkes—the
first such award in my family's history. This new gift honors
their memory by providing opportunities to students that

my parents were not able to access in their youth. I hope that
many young people with financial need will take advantage
of this scholarship to turn their lives around for themselves,
their families and for many generations to come."
Four Native or African American students are expected
to benefit from scholarship dollars exceeding $10,000 each
year. With successful academic progress, they will receive the
scholarship during each year of their studies.
“The Tomalis Scholarship, inspired by the vision of Irene
Stone, is a historic opportunity for Wilkes University.
Irene and I have shared dozens of wonderful conversations
over many years about changing the potential life path
for Native American students combined with promoting
Wilkes University as a beacon of opportunity which has led
us to this newest endowment,” said Margaret Steele, chief
development officer.
Endowed scholarships offer donors the opportunity to
combine their personal values and experiences with deserving
students. For more information on giving opportunities,
contact Steele at margaret.steele@wilkes.edu.

As part of its 2021-22 lecture series, Wilkes University welcomed a Nobel
Laureate in Physics and the founder of Travelocity in the fall, and in the spring
will feature a Pulitzer-Prize winning biographer and the bestselling author of
The Handmaid’s Tale. Below are the highlights from the fall lectures and details
about the spring lectures.
Nobel Prize winner in Physics William Phillips held an interactive lecture
titled, “Time, Einstein and the Coolest Stuff in the Universe” on Oct. 21, as
part of the Catherine H. Bone Lecture in Chemistry. An audience of over
300 fi lled room 101 in Stark Learning Center and watched in awe as Phillips
used liquid nitrogen to demonstrate how the measurement of time is changed
by cooling atoms to extreme low temperatures. Phillips also visited the Third
Avenue Elementary School in Kingston, Pa., where he delighted more than 80
kindergarteners from the Wyoming Valley West School District.
On Thursday, Oct. 22, Terry Jones, founder of Travelocity and founding
chairman of kayak.com, discussed how organizations can embrace innovation as
part of the Allan P. Kirby Lecture in Free Enterprise and Entrepreneurship. The
nearly 400 attendees, both online and in the Dorothy Dickson Darte Center, heard
about the need for business to continually innovate. Jones provided leaders with
simple but powerful ideas they can use to create more innovative organizations.
Presidential historian and Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jon Meacham
will deliver the Wilkes University Max Rosenn Lecture Series in Law and
Humanities, “Hope Through History,” on Sunday, April 24. Meacham won
the Pulitzer Prize for biography in 2009 for American Lion: Andrew Jackson in
the White House, and his No. 1 New York Times bestseller, Thomas Jefferson: The
Art of Power, was hailed as “masterful and intimate” by Fortune magazine. His
other national bestsellers include Franklin and Winston and American Gospel.
His newest bestseller His Truth Is Marching On: John Lewis and the Power of Hope
is the intimate and revealing portrait of civil rights icon and longtime U.S.
congressman John Lewis.
On April 26, the Allan Hamilton Dickson Spring Writers Series will present
“A Conversation with Margaret Atwood,” with the award-winning author of
more than 50 novels, including The Handmaid’s Tale. Renewed for a fi fth season
on Hulu, the critically acclaimed adaptation of her 1985 novel has earned 54
Emmy nominations and 15 awards. The dystopian work’s follow-up novel,
The Testaments, sold out its initial half-million copy run, requiring two additional
printings in just over a week and breaking fi rst-day sales records for Penguin
Random House titles that year.

�UNWAVERING
The pandemic may
have changed the plan
for Wilkes University’s
seventh president.
But it didn’t change
the promise.

WILKES | Winter 2021–2022

�WITH OVER 30 YEARS
IN HIGHER EDUCATION,
GREG CANT LEARNED THAT
THE COLLEGE SELECTION
PROCESS IS A DEEPLY
PERSONAL ONE.

Cant is pictured with his parents upon earning his PhD from the University of Western Australia.
Cant’s father, Alan, passed away in 1999. “His optimism, adventurous spirit, steadfast faith, enduring
compassion and love of life shapes me to this day.”

After working a variety of jobs that
ranged from being assistant manager
of a hardware store to working in road
construction to being a chauffeur, Cant
earned his high school diploma and,
later, his bachelor’s degree from the
University of Western Australia.
But it was his experience as a
graduate student in a 12-month
intensive master’s program at Queen’s
University in Ontario, Canada, that
changed the trajectory of his career.
“To that point, I never worked so
hard in all my life. There were 30 people
in my cohort. Just an amazing group
of individuals. We started together and
we graduated together,” he recalls. “I
realized during that time that working in
higher education isn’t just a job. It’s a life.
It was a world that I could see myself in.
And I wanted to be part of it.”

So perhaps it’s not surprising that
the one-time high school dropout
soon found his calling in higher
education. After a national search,
Cant was named Wilkes University’s
seventh president on Dec. 12, 2019.
The announcement was held in a
packed Sordoni Art Gallery amongst
the images of Pete Souza, White
House photographer during the
presidencies of Barack Obama and
Ronald Regan.
“It was just a stunning day. There
could have been a light coming down
from the heavens. Everything was
perfect. We had this plan about slowly
getting to know the institution while
I concluded my time at Montclair.”
He thinks and smiles wryly. “Well.
You know what they say about
making plans.”

“I realized during that time that working
in higher education isn’t just a job. It’s
a life. It was a world that I could see
myself in. And I wanted to be part of it.”

WILKES | Winter 2021–2022

He knows that students thrive in a
variety of campus environments: large,
small, urban or rural. After all, he
has worked in a variety of institutions
including three research-intensive
universities, a regional state university
and a private liberal arts college. But as
a student, Cant struggled as a result of
his environment.
“I recognize that not all students can
thrive in a large institution. Turns out,
I was one of them,” he admits.
A native of Australia, Cant went
from primary schools so small that
he shared classrooms with his sisters,
Robyn and Merilyn, even though
they were a year or two behind him.
A tiny school in Perth had just four
classes and about 100 total students.
A dramatic shift occurred when Cant
transitioned to Balcatta Senior High
School which, at the time, was western
Australia’s second-largest high school
boasting over 1,400 students.
It was partially the size of that
institution, along with admitted
immaturity and gusto, that led to a
surprising decision: at 16-years old,
Cant dropped out of high school.
“I was chatting with Mum about this
just a few days ago and she reminded
me that what I actually said was,
‘education is a waste of time and I’m
never going to do it again.’ Famous last
words,” he says with a chuckle.
Cant’s parents were educators so he
remains impressed at their supportive
reaction to his decision. But it was
during his brief hiatus from education
where he rediscovered his love for it.

�WILKES | Winter 2021–2022

CRISIS RESPONSE
AND RECOVERY

12

Cant is quick to note that Wilkes
has faced great moments of challenge
throughout its history. Whether it
was the collapse of the anthracite coal
industry or the devastation of the 1972
Hurricane Agnes Flood, Wilkes has
endured even during the most difficult
of circumstances.
In early 2020, the pandemic was
spreading across the globe. By March,
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
ordered that all colleges and universities stop in-person instruction.
Classes were quickly transitioned to
remote modalities as most faculty and
staff began working from home.
“The priorities shifted almost
overnight. Everything I assumed I
would do in my fi rst weeks at Wilkes
changed in the blink of the eye.
The safety of our campus community
is always paramount, but the
pandemic created much more
urgency for us all.”
Cant remained in close contact
with Paul S. Adams, interim president
at the time, as he concluded the
academic year at Montclair. On May
26, 2020, he arrived to a nearly empty
campus and was immediately faced
with what was arguably the biggest
decision of his career.
“Under normal circumstances, the
priority of any new president is to get
to know the campus and embark on
long-term strategic planning,” Cant
reflects. “From the moment I stepped
on campus, and long before that, we
were determining if we could safely
reopen and if we could realistically
remain open.”
Cant called together the COVID-19
Task Force, comprised of faculty,
administrators and colleagues, to tackle
that very question. Once again, the size
of the University played a critical role.

“Unlike large universities who
struggled to open, we found a way
to do so safely while managing our
2,500 undergraduate students. We
felt that if we could test, contact
trace and isolate infected members of
our campus community quickly, we
could offer a version of the face-toface experience that is true to our
history and carries forward our
educational promise.”
And it did. During a time when
many colleges and universities taught
exclusively online, Wilkes offered a
residential experience that blended
various learning formats. Select staff
members were trained as contact tracers
and residence halls were transformed
into isolation and quarantine spaces. As
testing became more readily available,
an ambitious assurance testing program
was introduced in the spring, furthering

the University’s ability to mitigate the
spread of COVID-19.
Overall, case counts remained
manageable. But it was the quickto-adapt approach that he witnessed
from essentially every area of the
University that became the basis for
his strategic vision.

LOOKING FORWARD
“Until the Delta variant, I think we
had the false idea that the pandemic
would soon be in the rear-view
mirror. The reality is that we will
be dealing with COVID-19 for years
to come, and I’m becoming more
certain that we need to learn to live
with it as safely as we can while
planning for the unknown.”
Cant immediately committed
to creating a plan that focuses the

�as well as established successes in
graduate nursing, education and
creative writing programs.
“I was attracted to Wilkes because
we have all the key ingredients:
programs that meet marketplace
demands. Excellent faculty. Incredible
research opportunities shared with
students. A caring staff. A great
reputation. A small environment with
state-of-the-art facilities that enhance
the learning experience,” he explains.
But Cant admits there is no
shortage of well-documented
challenges facing colleges and
universities. And in some cases,
small, independent schools like
Wilkes are considered at a greater
risk than large, state-institution
counterparts. In his view, the
long-anticipated shortage of
college-age students blended with

a hypercompetitive environment only
exacerbates the need for change.
“Being blunt, higher education is not
known for its speed or agility. In fact,
a reasonable observer might conclude
that higher education’s foundation has
been stability, not agility. Agility creates
risks, but I would argue that rigidity
guarantees steady decline.”
He continues. “We have an entrepreneurial fl air and we are not afraid to try
new things. I simply want to embolden
that. As I said in my inauguration
address, the workforce of the future
will have needs not yet known and will
operate in a world not yet understood.
We must be prepared to meet those
needs. To carry forward our promise
and to thrive.”
Cant thinks for a moment and smiles.
“And we do it as student’s lives are
transformed. What’s better than that?”

WILKES | Winter 2021–2022

University’s efforts on its most
critical priorities in the midst of a
global pandemic. The Bridge to the
Future Strategic Plan is two years in
duration and limited in scope. Above
all else, it emphasizes institutional
efficiency, agility and a culture of
entrepreneurship.
“Throughout this crisis, we
demonstrated an amazing capacity
to reimagine ourselves. We need to
move beyond episodic pivots and be
laser-focused on efficiency, while
we promote agility and embrace the
power of entrepreneurial thinking,”
Cant says, a message he repeated
during his inauguration address.
As he points out, that creative
mindset is already part of the Wilkes
DNA. He cites a new program in
civil engineering and a reimagined
special education program as examples,

�Lighting
the Way
The theme of the inauguration of
Wilkes University’s seventh president,
Greg Cant, was “Carrying Forward
Our Promise.” Even though the
event took place almost two years
after his presidential appointment
was announced, the joyful weeklong
celebration itself was a promise that
Wilkes has a bright future ahead.

theme of Carrying
Forward Our Promise,
it seems to me that the
essential value of a
ceremony that passes
authority from one
president to the next is
the unique opportunity
to reﬂect on our past
and the values that have
guided us, consider the
realities of the current
state and present a bold
vision for our future.”

the McHale Athletic Center—more
commonly known as the MAC. By
5 a.m., the sound of the 50-plus
members going through what they
call “PT” echoes in the cavernous
space. It’s their haven when
workouts can’t be outdoors. The
athletic center boasts an indoor
track and plenty of room for team
practice and special events. 1

JUST ANY DAY

Just across the lobby, Terry Groner,
manager of the campus Starbucks,
and her team ready the coffee shop
to open at 7 a.m. Keeping Colonels
caffeinated is a busy job. Groner knows
when the line for cold brew, lattes and
Frappucinos will be longest: “Any time
a class gets out.” It’s a quick stop for
students and faculty before they exit the
building. At peak times, the line snakes
into the lobby. While in line, students
add post-it messages to a board marking
Starbucks’ 50th anniversary. 2
Although the Simms Center houses
the Sidhu School of Business and
Leadership, students from virtually
every major use the building. For
some, like Julia Dreyfus, a senior
neuroscience major, it’s part of her
daily routine. “I come here every day
early in the morning, around 7:30,”
Dreyfus explains from her seat by the
window in Starbucks looking out on
Main Street. “I like the music and I
like being in here. It’s peaceful. I sit
here studying until my first class—and

spend a lot of money on coffee,” she says laughing as she
gestures toward her Starbucks cup. 3
Study spaces throughout the building are popular with
students, whether it’s in Starbucks, the lobby or spaces that
are adjacent to walls that are painted to be used as erasable
whiteboards. Students come and go throughout the day, parking
themselves with their laptops between classes. Sophomore
nursing major Gianna Picco is a fan of the whiteboards.
“I rewrite my notes, draw pictures and diagrams—all kinds
of things,” she says. Picco says she encounters fewer distractions
studying in the Simms Center than in other campus spots.
“And I live on Starbucks,” she adds. 4

H O M E SW E ET H O M E
While students from across campus find their way to the
Simms Center for a coffee or study break, others are there
for classes. The building houses classrooms, co-curricular
and extracurricular spaces for the Sidhu School and for the
ROTC program. 5
The ROTC students attend classes there all day on
Thursday, but every other day of the week, you can find
them in a spot that’s become a home away from home. Lt.
Col. Sarah Hedrick, commander of ROTC Detachment 752,
says, “The heart of AFROTC’s operations, where cadets plan
training sessions, develop lesson plans and relax together, is
based out of the Maj. Candace Adams Ismirle Leadership
Lounge. A 2003 Detachment 752 graduate, Maj. Ismirle
embodied the character traits necessary in Air and Space Force
Officers. It is a privilege to see her image and inspiration each
day, as cadets strive for excellence of character in preparing to
serve in the world’s greatest Air and Space Forces.”
To ROTC students like Wilkes senior criminology major
Nick Leverentz, the space is known simply as the lounge or
“the Det”—short for detachment. “It’s really been the place
of a lot of memories because we spend most of our time
in there,” Leverentz explains. “It’s where we do all of our
planning for classes and for all of our extracurricular clubs….I
know the office has our cadre members in it, but the lounge is
more of the actual heart and home of ROTC.” 6
Leverentz puts in late nights there working on projects.
Other times, he’s been known to bring a cornhole game into
the space. “We really appreciate being here and that we have
all this space,” Leverentz says.
Sidhu School Dean Abel Adekola also is enthusiastic about
what the building has provided for his students and faculty
in the seven years since the business programs moved there
in 2014. “Being in one space gives faculty and staff the

Alumni Ron and Rhea Simms
The University community gathered on Aug. 11 to dedicate the
Ron and Rhea Simms Center on Main. The building, previously
known as the University Center on Main, was dedicated in
recognition of Ron and Rhea Simms, members of the classes
of 1960 and 1978, respectively, in honor of their decadeslong
commitment and generous support of Wilkes University.
Speaking at the dedication, Wilkes President Greg Cant
said, “There is no better space on this campus to honor the
Simms than this building. It is the intersection of campus

opportunity to interact seamlessly in providing studentfocused education that enhances their personal and
professional development through teaching, mentoring
and advising,” Adekola states. “It also provides innovative
educational culture that fosters joint creativity.” 7
That creativity is reflected everywhere—from the casual
conversations between faculty and students in hallways to
the student store where the products produced by first-year
students in the Integrated Management Experience (IME)
class are displayed and sold. There’s no mistaking that business
is the focus from the moment visitors enter the lobby with its
stock ticker or see the state-of-the-art Cardell Financial Center
where students have access to the Bloomberg trading terminals,
giving them real-time financial data and news. 8
Sidhu senior and accounting major Allen Kokilananda
spends every day in the Simms Center for classes in his major or
related to his senior capstone. As a member of the Sidhu Dean’s
Advisory Council, he also regularly visits the dean’s suite on the
second floor. “I really like being able to see what’s going on in
the building throughout the day,” Kokilananda says. “I think
it’s really neat seeing some faculty members running the track
in the mornings, just getting ready for their day. Then I’m off
to class. Later I’ll see students doing their sports in the gym.”
As the lead admissions ambassador, Kokilananda sees
other benefits. The building is a highlight when he gives
campus tours. Prospective students also are introduced to
Wilkes at open house events kicking off in the MAC. Four
years later, those who enrolled receive their diplomas in
commencement ceremonies held in the same place.

Kokilananda, who wrestles for the Colonels, notes that
the Simms Center is valuable as a place to welcome the
community. The Student Athletic Advisory Council
(SAAC) traditionally held an annual trick-or-treat event for
children in the MAC. (This year it was held outdoors due
to pandemic restrictions.) Guest speakers and other events
in the athletic center are open to the community like this
lecture with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar in 2018. 9
Some community uses are decidedly practical. On an
October Tuesday, the Wilkes-Barre Health Department
offered flu shots in the MAC. Earlier in the semester,
it was the site for administering Covid-19 vaccinations.
ROTC Cadet Leverentz notes, “I feel like this is probably
the building that represents the university the most since
it’s right on Main Street.” 10

11

Third-year pharmacy student Allie Gundlah still remembers
being surprised by what she found in the Simms Center
when she came to Wilkes. The Step-Up Rock Wall and
Ropes Course was a fi rst for her. “I came from a really small
high school where we didn’t have things like that,” Gundlah
says. “And then to fi nd out that it was such an open, easily
accessible thing….You don’t have to be in any kind of club or
anything. You just go and try it.” Monday evenings are open
climbing hours on the wall where students like Gundlah, who
have trained in the Wilkes Adventure Education program,
guide students in using the equipment. Other times, the
ropes course might be used by athletic teams or classes for
team-building activities. 11
The rock wall and ropes course aren’t the only things
bringing people into the Simms Center after 5 p.m. On any
given evening in the MAC, you might see the Ultimate
Frisbee Club’s members tossing discs into the air or fi nd a
team holding practice. The back door to the MAC, open to
the Gateway on a warm night, beckons passersby to check
out the action.
Meanwhile, upstairs, MBA students, fueled
by that cup of coffee they snagged before
Starbucks closed, are in a night class. 12
Some time after 9, the last one will
make their way across the bridge
connecting the Simms Center to
the parking garage and the
building will be quiet.
Until tomorrow.

�This is the only supercomputer of its
kind in the region. How did it end up
at Wilkes University?
Del Lucent, associate professor of
physics: We had been trying for a long

time to get an NSF (National Science
Foundation) grant to fund computational research here at the university.
In general, it’s very, very challenging
to do this because we’re competing
in basically the same pool as universities all around the country, including
some very prestigious schools. So, we
had been trying for a while, but we
eventually achieved a critical mass of a
bunch of people working together, an
environment in which to house it, and a
very do-able way to impact students and
we got our grant. So, that was for about
a half a million dollars. And that was to
have the machine built and also to hire

that we could never teach before. We
can reach out to students in ways that
were previously not possible—using
things like virtual reality and such.
More importantly, we can all perform
very advanced computational research
on really important global problems and
integrate our students with that as well.
Was it pure coincidence that

How will access to this
supercomputer directly benefit
students here at Wilkes?
Lucent: This is something that’s
special about Wilkes. We allow our
students to undertake research tasks
that they normally wouldn’t do
anywhere else, even at larger schools.
And WARLOC is a great example
of that. Someone might ask, “Why
don’t you just buy some time on a
cloud and do all your calculations
there?” Right? Because, no matter
how impressive WARLOC is, Google
has something better. And Microsoft
has something better. But the thing is,
in those cases, it’s almost like teaching
your 16-year-old kid how to drive in
a rented car. Nobody wants to do that.
In this case, we’re using our own car.

Rather than having to wait until later
in their careers to learn how to use
something like this, we allow students
to have an actual hands-on approach
with supercomputing as early in their
undergraduate careers as they want.
That’s something that basically does
not exist anywhere else. I went to grad
school in a big university, and even
in my post Doc work, someone else
handled the computer. You don’t ever
learn how to really do that.

A Celebratory
Homecoming
2021

VIEW MORE PHOTOS
FROM HOMECOMING
WEEKEND 2021

There were many celebrations during
Homecoming Weekend, but perhaps
the most meaningful was the joy of
simply being together once again after a
two-year hiatus from in-person events.
More than 600 Colonels returned home
on Oct. 1-3, and many kicked off the
weekend by attending the Inauguration
of Greg Cant on Friday afternoon. Sixty
alumni delegates represented their
classmates at the ceremony at the F.M.
Kirby Center in Wilkes-Barre. They
then joined the president, his family
and guests at an outdoor luncheon by
Weckesser Hall.
The warm early fall weather could
not have been better, and set the stage
for alumni gatherings including the “W
Club” donor recognition reception in
the Melberger Courtyard, the perennial
favorite “Pints with Professors” on the
Karambelas East Campus Gateway, and
the 50th reunion cocktail party celebrating
the Classes of ’70 and ’71. Events began
early on Saturday morning with breakfast
with the president, an opportunity for
alumni to meet and mingle with Cant, and
continued at the Homecoming game at
Ralston Athletic Complex.
On the Monday following Homecoming,
the 3rd Annual Ralston Memorial Golf
Tournament began but was rescheduled

WILKES | Winter 2021–2022

to October 22nd due to heavy rain. The

28

tournament raised more than $80,000
to benefit athletics at Wilkes and was
sponsored by BSI Corporate Benefits.

Save the date for next year’s
Homecoming: Friday, Sept. 30
through Sunday, Oct. 2!

Above: Beautiful weather was the backdrop for the Homecoming game vs. Stevenson University at
Ralston Field, where Wilkes was victorious (21-14). A great time was had by all at the Tailgate Tent.
Opposite: A special highlight was the dedication of the new Stephens Plaza, a beautiful pavilion and
tables that has quickly become the gathering place right inside the entrance to the Ralston Athletic
Complex. The plaza was given by Dr. Panayiotis (Panos) Kalaritis ’77 and Deborah (Debi) Stephens
Kalaritis ’78 and named in honor of Dr. Joseph Donald Stephens, DDS ’51.

Guesseppe Rea ’17 Realizes
His Dream With a Little Help
From His Friends

WILKES | Winter 2021–2022

Lissa and Dick Smith’s endowed scholarship made
it possible for Rea to represent Ecuador on the
world stage of wrestling.

30

Guesseppe Rea, a 2017 Spanish
and sociology grad, is having an
amazing year. In April, he was named
the National Wrestling champion
in his home country of Ecuador.
In May, he competed in the Pan
American Wrestling Championships
in Guatemala City, Guatemala. And
in early October, he became the
first Wilkes wrestler to compete

in the Senior World Wrestling
Championships in Oslo, Norway.
He had finally achieved his boyhood
dream of representing Ecuador as a
wrestler on the world stage. “It felt
great to represent my country where
I was born and raised,” he said. But
none of it would have happened if not
for the generosity of Dick Smith and
Lissa Bryan-Smith, who established an

World Wrestling Championships in

endowed scholarship for students like
Rea and many others.
Surprisingly, the Smiths have no
connection to Wilkes other than the
proximity of their home which is near
residence halls and the athletic facilities
on the Wilkes campus. “Because we
lived in the neighborhood, we got to
know people from Wilkes,” said Dick.
The Smiths had admired the strong
programs, caring faculty and coaches
and dedicated students, and they
wanted to help out in some way. “We
found out that there were too many
good minds being lost due to lack of

�giving back

money. So that’s how we got involved,”
he said. The Smiths established both
an endowed scholarship and an annual
scholarship—with only one stipulation.
“The student has to be in dire need,”
Smith explained. “It has to be for
someone who wouldn’t be at Wilkes
without it.”
Guesseppe Rea was one of those
students. He moved to the U.S. from
Ecuador with his family when he was
10. A few years later, Rea fell in love
with wrestling at Stroudsburg High
School, where he was a stand-out.
He had big wrestling dreams beyond
high school, but because of finances,
college wasn’t an option. Then a
high school teammate who attended
Wilkes introduced him to head
wrestling coach Jon Laudenslager, and
as Rea remembers, “Wilkes became
my only option.”
Seeing Rea’s talent and determination to succeed, Laudenslager
recommended him as a recipient for
the Smith Endowment. The Smiths
agreed—and over the next few years
Rea thrived at Wilkes. “He had a
strong will to succeed and strove to get
better every day,” said Laudenslager.
While at Wilkes, Rea was a four-year
starter, earned All-American honors,
was a four-time regional medalist, won
the 2014 Wilkes Open Championship

and still ranks as first in the record
book for all-time victories.
During that same time, a warm
relationship grew between Rea and
the Smiths. Dick Smith remembers the
first time he and Lissa met Rea. “He
came over to the house and we sat on
the porch and G-Rea (what Lissa and
Dick call Guesseppe) was so shy, he
didn’t say a word. Now he talks a mile
a minute!” The Smiths would often
take Rea to dinner in town; and in
turn, Rea invited the Smiths to family
gatherings. “We met his family at his
100 wins party. His parents, aunts
and grandmother came. G-Rea has
a wonderful family. They are very
connected,” said Lissa. Rea says of the
Smiths: “I’m very fortunate and grateful
to have met and built a relationship with
Mr. and Mrs. Smith. They have become
part of my family since I met them back
in 2013. They are great people who love
me and support my goals.”
For the boy from Stroudsburg who
once dreamed of a life as a wrestler, it’s
amazing to see where those dreams,
determination and hard work have
taken him. After graduating from
Wilkes, Rea joined the wrestling team
at Muhlenberg College as an assistant
coach, and now has the opportunity to
coach and mentor others the way he
was by Coach Laudenslager, to whom

he credits his successes. “Being at
Wilkes taught me to be independent,”
Rea said. “Coach Laudenslager and
the wrestling program has a strong
tradition of champions and has
helped open doors to the wrestling
community for me.”
Rea has also stayed close friends
with the Smiths. “I go visit them
and stay at their home all the time,”
he said. And the Smiths, who were
never wrestling fans before, go to
his matches and watch him online.
Said Lissa, “We were up at 4:30 a.m.
watching the World Championships
in Norway and we were messaging
Coach Laudenslager back and forth. It
was wonderful because we were able
to tell G-Rea that we saw him!”

DONALD MURRAY of Arlington, Va., is writing a book
focusing on the organizational effort to draft Adlai Stevenson
at the 1960 Democratic National Convention. The book is an
expansion of his master’s thesis titled, Patronage and the
Draft in the Nominating Process: An Investigative Analysis of
the Stevenson Organization at the 1960 Democratic National
Convention. An early draft of the thesis has been cited in
three biographies of Adlai E. Stevenson. In Washington D.C.,

Ornithology and director of the Acopian Center for
Ornithology at Muhlenberg College. Klem’s passion
about the subject is represented in his new book, Solid

which shares both the challenges and solutions to this
preventable issue. Klem has been studying, writing
and teaching about this issue for nearly half a century,
and is considered by many in the field to be the
leading expert on the topic. The audience for the
book is “every person on the planet,” Klem said. The

George Pawlush ’69, MS ’76
Chronicles the Legendary
Wilkes Coach Rollie Schmidt
in Zeus and the Boys
Members of the Wilkes
University football team were
practicing at Artillery Park on
an October day in 1967 when
the weather turned nasty. The
players clambered down the
steps after practice, grumbling
about having to play in a
chilling mix of rain and sleet.
Suddenly a man walking among
them, unnoticed until then,
pointed at the sky and uttered a
single word. “Stop.”
The rain ceased and players
realized that their coach, Rollie Schmidt, was the guy
who seemed to cause the weather change. Several of
them said that maybe it was really Zeus, Greek god of
lightning and thunder, disguised in the personage of
their coach. Schmidt, already on his way to becoming a
Wilkes sports legend, acquired the nickname Zeus. Years
later, the story is among many chronicled by Wilkes
alumnus George Pawlush ’69 MS ’76 in his book Zeus
and the Boys.
A book about Schmidt was a natural choice. Although
a low-key personality, his career coaching teams that
came to be known as the “Golden Horde” stands as the
most illustrious in Wilkes history. Schmidt, coaching
football from 1962 to 1981, amassed a record of 92-73,
including a stretch in which the “Golden Horde” won
32 games in a row over five seasons. A key to Schmidt’s
success as a coach was his exhaustive preparation,
studying fi lms of opponents in a way not common in
1965. “He was totally prepared for every opponent they
played,” Pawlush says.
Pawlush began working on the book by combing
the University archives and conducting more than 100
interviews with Schmidt’s former players and colleagues.
“I went through two or three tape recorders,” he says,
noting he probably transcribed more than 100,000
words from interviews. Zeus and the Boys can be ordered
from Amazon.

(PA-S2) at the Pennsylvania College of Technology in Williamsport, Pa. He recently published a video on Youtube called

“Does Healthcare Care? #WHYICARE,” which has accumulated over 10,000 views currently and is being used at several
educational institutions for diversity training in healthcare fields. The video was for his “Medical Decision Making”
course and he is currently conducting a capstone research project based on how healthcare providers can better
themselves and reduce provider stigma when treating a patient and providing lackluster care due a patient's primary
language, skin color, race/ethnicity, sexual preference, gender identity, or having a disability. 2  JOHN E. STONER ’17 of

our student-athletes celebrate by ringing the victory bell at Bruggeworth

always remain the highlight of my days.

VOLUME THIRTEEN, ISSUE TWO

BY DR. TIM GILMOUR, WILKES UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT

!

uilding a promising future for Wilkes University requires incr d h
energy, commitment and inclusiveness. Faculty, alumni, adm ' E
J board members and students all have responsibilities in this &gt; ? J"°rS’

I I----- lx essential quest.

y and

But a promising future begins with a strategic plan, and Wilkes Univer ' ’
to be a premier small university in the Mid-Atlantic region by 2010 is featured '
this edition of tire Universe. I encourage everyone to read about our plans and'"!
us what they like and don't like about it.
e
Our plan also recognizes the need for us to help improve the physical environ
mem in which our university exists. And I don’t just mean our campus I also
mean the City of Wilkes-Barre.
We are making great progress helping the city rejuvenate its downtown corri­
dor. Nearly S150 million worth of construction and renovation have begun in the
downtown alone. Wilkes University is playing a greater and greater role in making
this development possible.
Like my colleagues across the country, I have discovered that helping our city
grow is an important part of guiding the progress of our university.
Wilkes’ future is inextricably linked to the health and vibrancy of WilkesBarre. No matter how good the education we offer is, an economically depressed
city makes recruiting high quality students difficult (an essential element of our
growth plan) and hurts retention. Recruiting the best faculty and staff from out­
side the region is also a challenge.
The change in city leadership has been the single greatest factor in our ability
to help influence city development. Mayor Tom Leighton has embraced the col­
leges. So much so that he has declared Wilkes-Barre a college town. Moving the
city forward would be impossible without the help of great partners such as my
colleagues from Kings College. When King’s and Wilkes speak as one voice, we
represent the largest city employer.
Some of the exciting developments on the horizon include completion of reno­
vations to the University Center on Main. The new facility will open this summer
with indoor sports facilities and offices for staff and administrators. It will bring

much needed pedestrian traffic to South Main Street.
One of the most important projects for revitalizing and sustaining the city’s
economic revitalization is the creation of a business improvement district, or B
which supplements the cleaning, patrolling, customer service, and marketing
vices the city is able to provide in the Downtown.
Along with partners in the Wilkes-Barre Chamber of Business and Indi 0

Seniorsjon Polguy, James Gilboy,
and Evan Walters, under the tutelage of
engineers at Fairchild Semiconductor
International Inc., redesigned a manu­
facturing tool that is making one of
the many processes at the Wright
Township plant more efficient.
The new design will save Fairchild
about 550,000 a year and between
520,000 and 540,000 in scrap savings.

“This is having a ripple effect,” said
Dave Wells, Ph.D., chairman of the
division of engineering and physics
at Wilkes. “The students have the
opportunity to work with Fairchild on
something that will help the company
function better and save money and
it’s being manufactured locally."
Fairchild, formerly RCA, was estab­
lished al the Crestwood Industrial Park

in 1960 and makes silicon wafers used
in electronic applications—from auto­
motive to computing and industrial.
The wafers are moved automatically
from one machine or system to anoth­

“It brings innovative ideas to

Fairchild's engineering and mainte­

tunity to work with students that may

old Polguy of Pocono Pines in Monroe
Count)’. The mechanical engineering
major was retained by Fairchild as
a contract employee and is working
there about 20 hours a week.
“Working on the project was useful
because we’ve taken what we learned
here the last four years and applied it to
practical applications,” he said. “And,
I’m glad to be working with Fairchild.
I’d like to work there after graduation.”
Manufacturing the redesigned

“We made one prototype for them

truly life-changing,” said Ann Loyek,
coordinator of community7 sendee and
ASB chaperone. “We were immediately
humbled and energized.”
Through the international non­
profit organization, Cross-Cultural
Solutions, 10 student volunteers
worked at Los Martincitos, a
community-based senior center
sponsored by the Catholic Church in
the small town of Villa El Salvador,
outside of Lima. Students served food,
assisted members in basic hygiene,
and provided companionship.
According to volunteer Stephanie
Victor, the students also built an
addition to a single-room home that
was shared by 11 people. Having
no raw materials to work with, die
volunteers had to use cardboard and
other salvaged resources, such as wood
and nails from dilapidated structures.
The students worked at least four
hours a day. The environmental
conditions were exhausting, because
die town is located in a desert, and die
communication barrier made the work
even more challenging. “We eventually
started to pick up on some of the

language and used a lol of gesturing,”
said sludent Nichole Leader.
The students received a warm
welcome from the community
members, according to volunteer
Dimitri latrou, who said that the
people hugged them and showed
interest in them throughout their stay.
A special highlight of the students’
experience was plating soccer with
children at a local elementary' school.
Most of dtese children are the first
generation in their family to have
the opportunity for education. “The
town was established in 1971 by
native peoples from the jungles and
highlands of Peru who wanted to
be closer to the capital in order to
provide their children with these
opportunities,” said Loyek. Though its
people have not escaped poverty, Villa
is a model of community-managed
social development.
The elderly poor of Peru have lately
been relegated to living their advanced
years in destitution, according to a
website about Los Martincitos and the
Adopt-A-Grandparent organization.
“This is because the government gives
the majority of funding to programs
that benefit children and families,"
said volunteer Robert Bireley. This
institution relies on the voluntary
efforts of churches, other committed

organizations, and compassionate
individuals such as the volunteers
from Wilkes, who all agree that they
would never turn down a chance
to go back. “We Americans had no
way to ‘buy’ them (the villagers) out
of their poverty, but a touch, a hug,
some simple kindness, brought them
wealth,” said Loyek. “And we, too, left
so much richer."

Wilkes Wrestling to Celebrate

■ Anniversary of wrestling as an
■ intercollegiate sport at Wilkes
University Wilkes initially
achieved national recognition under
the leadership ofJohn Reese, who
served as the coach for 42 years, only
three of which were losing seasons.
Wrestling was first considered an
intercollegiate sport in January; 1939
when Bucknell Junior College con­
ducted an intramural wrestling tour­
nament at the YMCA. The announced
objective was to lay the groundwork
for wrestling to "become a major
sport” at the college.
By the following November, the
program had become the principal
intramural sport for the gym classes.
A tournament was held in December
to select an “all-star” team that was to
schedule matches with local teams.
A varsity team was organized for the
winter of 1940-1941, but no details
have been found.
With varsity sports abandoned
during World War 11, it was 1946
before a team was finally formed. The
beginnings of the program gave little
warning of what was to come, but this
would change with the appointment
ofJohn Reese as coach in 1953. Wilkes
joined the Mid-Atlantic Conference
in 1955 and produced its first winning
team in five years. It would not have
another losing season for 38 years.
Over those years, Coach Reese would
become one of only two collegiate
wrestling coaches with more than 500
career wins.

A lootc inside the oo,OOO square foot mam floor of UCOM shows three side-by-side basketball courts, six basketball backboards and a drop down

UCOM: An Athlete's Haven
The Eagles have the NovaCare Center, Olympians have their
Colorado Springs facility and now the Colonels have The
University Center on Main (UCOM), the latest addition to the
Wilkes campus. The multi-use facility, will accommodate die
practice needs of 350 athletes from all 14 varsity spons, recre­
ational activities for members of the Wilkes community and
intramural sports.
Addy Malatesta, director of athletics, believes that the
development of UCOM opens an exciting new chapter for
Wilkes athletics. “This outstanding multi-use facility wall be
a showcase for our campus community for years to come."
The interior of the 38.000-square-foot training ground is
composed of three side-by-side tennis courts, with three basketball/vollcyball courts within the lines. Additional perim­
eter markings allow the space to accommodate field sports.

During its affiliation with the MAC,
Wilkes won 14 league championships
in 20 years. From 1965 to 1975 Wilkes
produced nine place winners in the
NC?\a College Division I and Division
III tournaments.
In 1975, Wilkes moved to the E1WA,
transferring to NCA/\ Division I and
becoming the smallest college with a

Curtain separators permit UCOM to play host to a number of
activities simultaneously. The Center houses six basketball
backboards, a drop down batting cage, and a 29-foot high
rock climbing wall. A two-lane track runs the perimeter of
the courts, and a ropes course is available for student leader­
ship training programs. Locker rooms are also accessible on­
site for all facility patrons.
“The coaching staff recognizes and genuinely appreciates
the support of the university and the tireless efforts of all the
individuals at Wilkes who had a lead role in this project," said
Malatesta. “UCOM will benefit the entire campus community

seasons in five years in the mid-1990s
caused a re-evaluation of the program
and a return to the MAC beginning
with the 1999-2000 season.
Today, the team is coached by John
Laudcnslager, who had a notewor­
thy career as a Wilkes wrestler from

1994 to 1998. Now having finished
his third year as coach, the team has
demonstrated a steady improvement,
progressing from an 11-11 season to

Wilkes University, 2016

In a letter to faculty and staff earlier
this year. President Tim Gilmour
envisioned Wilkes University in

2016, after the strategic plan has
done its work:
"Imagine a great Wilkes ten
years from now. It is the premier

small university in the Mid-Atlantic
and known for its unique mentor­

ing culture that challenges students
at all levels to extraordinary aca­
demic achievement and personal

growth. Wilkes' faculty is renowned
for its extraordinary commitment

to student learning, and its staff is
seen as one of the most competent

in higher education. Faculty and
staff are well compensated and are

regularly provided opportunities to

enhance their skills.
"Sixty percent of the alumni

cational programs, mentor Wilkes
students and alumni, and give gen­

a lime when Pennsylvania universities face major challenges,
Wilkes has revised its strategic plan to pursue far-reaching goals.
Our idea is not just io hold our own but to strengthen the institu­
tion, both in what it does and how its perceived,'’ said President Tim
Gilmour. If we can do that, we will be a major factor in education, not only in
Northeast Pennsylvania but also across the Mid-Atlantic.”
Back in 2001, when the original Vision 2010 strategic plan was developed, the
university identified four key factors that would challenge its operations and prov ide opportunity: a society that demands greater accountability, a declining pool of

high school graduates, growth in the need for lifelong education, and technology
that is driving innovation in all sectors, including education.
Meanwhile, U.S. college costs have continued to escalate. “There is a real press
on us to deal with that issue,” Gilmour said. “As costs increase, people wonder if

were providing sufficient value for the dollar. One way to do that is to get better
and better.”

The strategic plan is comprised of
ten separate action plans designed to
improve the university. This year, the
focus is on “The Big Three”:
• Building the capacity to deliver
world-class mentoring
• Developing lean, user-focused sup­
port services
“ Defining and realizing an enrollment

The Wilkes Brand: Mentoring

The Mentoring Task Force is finish­
ing its first year of planning under

the leadership of co-chairs Maravenc
Loeschke, provost, and Paul Adams,
vice president for student affairs. Their
goal is to promote student success
through a university-wide focus on
world-class mentoring, thus helping
Wilkes distinguish itself in the com­
petitive academic marketplace.
“Mentoring is about creating a series
of enriching relationships that are bodr
spontaneous and intentional. They
build upon one another to form a key
developmental milepost." Adams said.
“This will help our students fonn their

identities, develop competencies, man­
age emotions, and realize their purpose."
At the Wilkes University of the
future, mentoring will he a long-term,
on-going relationship. According to a
February 2006 report by the task force:
“The goal of building capacity to deliv­
er world-class mentoring is to integrate
mentoring into all aspects of our educa­
tional programs."
Mentoring will be based on three
major interlocking components:

..
The internship program is led by
Dr. Carl Chametski, a Wilkes
University professor of psychol­
ogy who has been consulting at the
Children's Senice Center for about 10
years. He was instrumental in develop­
ing the centers autism program, which
provides assessments and therapeutic
interventions to youngsters diagnosed
with pervasive developmental dis­
orders, more commonly known as
autism. Chametski designs behavioral
interventions and supervises the thera­
peutic support staff in implementing
them. This work is particularly valu­
able due to the nationwide increase
in autism diagnoses—from one out
of every 400 children in 1998 to one of
ever,-166 children in 2005, according to
the U S. Centers for Disease Control.
Although Wilkes students have
helped at the Children's Service Center
informally over the past decade, the
internship program officially began
about t wo years ago. Chametski usu­
ally places two interns each semester
and often has a wailing list of junior
and senior [/.ychology majors who are

eager io participate in the college-cred­
it program. In addition to shadowing
a TSS, interns write papers and have
weekly meetings with the professor to
discuss cases. “It’s a prime example of
furthering Wilkes’ mission of mentor­
ing,” Chametski said.
Interns work with children across
the autism spectrum, from low- to
high-functioning. "Our students are
exposed to a wide array of symptoms
of the manifestation of the disorder so
that they can understand various treat­
ments,” Chametski said.
Because Professor Chametski spe­
cializes in applied behavior analysis,
much of the work he has the TSS and
intern do involves analyzing a young­
sters behavior and then determining
how to intervene to get (he desired
results. For example. Chametski
explained, a boy (autism is more preva­
lent among boys than among girls)
might tell a classmate she’s fat, simply
because that’s what the boy sees. Telling
the boy that his name-calling hurts the
girl’s feelings probably will not solicit
a change in his behavior; autistic intli-

viduals typically do not understand
that others have feelings different from
their oyyTi. Instead, the TSS attaches
consequences to the behavior, saying
that when he hurts the girl's feelings,
he can't play with her. “He may never
understand the girls feelings, but he
will come to understand that his behav­
ior brings negative consequences,”
Chametski said. “The child comes to
knoyv how to behave appropriately in a
social situation.”
Sometimes solving a problem can be
as simple as considering the situation
from the autistic child's viewpoint.
“Once 1 walked into a second-grade
classroom, and the teacher was in
a panic because a boy had come up
to her and said: ‘1 like Linda with no
pants on,' ” Chametski recalled. The
teacher was worried about what might
have happened between the two chil­
dren. Chametski talked to the boy and
realized he was just commenting on
how the girl looked in the dress she
was wearing that day, instead ol the
pants she usually wore. A potential
crisis was averted-

Chametski is one of the most out­
standing behavior specialists in north­
east Pennsy lvania, according to Joseph
DeVizia, yvho headed the Children's
Service Center for 26 years before
recently becoming executive director of
the Luzerne County Office of Human
Services. "He was at the ground floor
of this whole movement in autism."
DeVizia said. The internship program
helps university' students gain experi­
ence in real-life situations. DeVizia said,
noting that "it's not terribly common
for students to learn about autism right
in the classroom with autistic chil­
dren." The interns' exceptional training
has paid off: several have been hired
by the center alter completing their
bachelor's degrees.
For Katyn Shoval 05, her internship
in the summer of 2004 was a stepping
stone to her current enrollment tn a
master's degree program in counsel­
ing and human services al Lehigh
University. “Without mv Wilkes
internship, I don't think 1 would have
gotten neatly' as much out ol my psv
chology degree, she said During hei

internship, Shoval shadowed a TSS
who was working with three autistic
children in their homes, as well as
assisting at camp with a child who
has Aspergers syndrome. a less severe
form of autism. "Before the intern­
ship. I didn't really know a lot about
autism." she said. “1 learned so much."
Current intern Jean Schappert
heard about the Children's
Service Center program through
Dr. Chametski. her advisor. "1 was
Irving to explore different areas of
psychology and thought it sounded
extremely interesting." she said.
With a minor in sociology and
womens studies, Schappert originally
thought she would one day work with
women and children who arc in abu­
sive relationships. “Now. though. I’m
really enjoying working with the chil­
dren in this program.' she savs.
Changed by her experiences.
Schappert is hoping tor a second
autism internship this summer. After
she graduates inJune 2tV7. she hopes
to become a I'sS heiselt and, work with
autistic children: Its just wonder till
yyoik that's being done.

w e can take comfort that
a Judge Max Rosenn is

&gt; K B ! now at rest, in peace for
eternity'. If anyone has,
he earned that peaceful
rest through his life, which met the
obligations conferred to be open, hon­
est, ethical, moral, compassionate, and
dedicated to the service of his fellow
human beings.
It seems only natural that he would
become interested in the law, if only
because this is a nation of law. During
World War II, he served as an officer
of the Adjutant General’s Division,
largely in the Philippines. When he
returned home, he formed what even­
tually became one of the most presti­
gious law firms of the region.
He left the firm in the early 1960s
to serve as the Secretary' of the
Department of Public Welfare under
two governors, stepping out in the late
19b0s to become chairman of the state’s
Human Rights Commission until 1970
when he was appointed by' President
Nixon to the U.S. Court of Appeals,

Dr. Jim DeCosmo passed away
October 9, 2005. He began teaching at
Wilkes University in 1962 and in 1996
served as department chair. He officially
retired in 1997 but continued to teach

courses until this year. DeCosmo began
teaching math in Long Island, N.Y.,
in 1956. While there, he obtained his

advanced degree at Adelphia University.
DeCosmo was a talented vocal­
ist and was active in various music
groups, most recently the Choral
Society at College Misericordia. He was
also a handball player at the WilkesBarre YMCA for 40 years. DeCosmo
enjoyed many things, including Wilkes
University basketball, mystery novels,
Broadway shows, theater, opera, clas­
sical music, movies, astronomy, and

the Philadelphia Phillies.
Surviving are his wife of 19 years,
Betsy Crum DeCosmo; daughters,

Betty and Patricia; son, Tony; brother
David DeCosmo; and grandchildren,
David, Megan, Emily, J.R., and Katie.

Dr. Ming Lew, chair of the math­
ematics and computer science depart­

ment, says, "He was a friend and
mentor to many past and present

department faculty members.

Third Circuit. He served there with
distinction for the next 36 years, end­
ing only with his death.
In our last conversation, he said he
was “in agony—absolute agony.” It
wasn’t the physical pain, but he was
enduring the unusual experience in
his lifetime of being confined to a
hospital bed for the better part of a
month—except for a few' interludes
into the intensive care unit as doctors
struggled to help his deteriorating
body provide at least the oxygen nec­
essary' to survive.
Max w’ould not give up. There was
w'ork to be read, daily conferences to
be held with his law clerks and all odters who called. And there were many.
So, his agony was rooted in not being
able to get up and going again.
Despite his rigorous work in the
courts, he found more time than most
of us do for a wide variety of services
to the community. These ranged from

Task Force, serving for 33 years as a

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 &amp; 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 &amp; Noble to joindy operate a bookstore anywhere
in the U.S. It shows a commitment to think in new ways so we can best sen e our
students and our community. 1 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 -006. Yo

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?
Leam more by calling the
Development Office at 570-408-4300.

Fenner Quadrangle and
Residence Halls Get Facelift

As pan of the university's 20-year
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. studentfriendlv place. Expansion and
landscaping of the green space is
expected to be completed bi the
end of the year.

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
i
the halls. While under
construction, the university is
leasing housing around the Wilkes
Utnpj1- JtMil the buildings reopen
the 2007-08 academic year.
Other residence halls are slated for

•lemen: 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
Clarion 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 th
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/learning
environments at the university.
“This is an extraordinary move for
Wilkes, said Dr. Tim Gilmour,
Wilkes president. “Wilkes will scree
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
several university-owned properties,
now used to house students.
Wilkes will spend $1.7 million in
renovations to health and safely,
HVAC and elevator systems, among
other improvements to the building,
Byers said.
According to Marty Williams, vice
president for development and
alumni relations, pan of the trans­
action includes a $3 million bargain
sale gift to the university, resulting
in the difference between the fair
market value and the sales price
being handled as an increase in the
university’s real estate assets. "This
is a perfect example of how donors
can convey real estate to a charity,"
Williams said.

Exclusive Website for
Prospective Students
Featured in USA Today
Wilkes University’s latest marketing
tool called HelloWilkes, a special
website created for accepted students
to become familiar with the university
through c-convcrsations with faculty
and current students, was featured
this summer in U5A Today and
Philadelphia BusinessJournal.
Social networking Web sites—
like MySpace or Facebook—are
essential to the care and feeding of
the college student.
Hoping to capitalize on that,
Wilkes University introduced
HelloWilkes this year to its accepted
freshman class. A cross between
MySpace and a weblog, HelloWilkes
is an exclusive community for

incoming freshmen to get to know
other freshmen, strike up conversa­
tions with upperclassmen and
faculty, and get a glimpse of daily
life on the Wilkes campus.
The Web site was created to
replace the traditional admissions
office “closing piece” that is sent
to high school students who have
been accepted, but have not
made the decision to enroll. The
site has proven to be much more
popular—not to mention cheaper
and more effective.
HelloWilkes averages 6,900 hits
per day—more than 200,000 hits
total so far—with the average
visitor going back nearly 40 times
and staying on the site for an
average of six minutes per visit.

strt c both Wilkes
; ■■ ersitv and King's College
?.■&lt; been brewing for more
than a decade. However, the tinting
■ .isn't right...until now.
.7, October, Eames &amp; Noble College
Eceksdlers. Inc. opened its doors to
its newest bookstore in downtown
Wilkes-Barre. This S2.4 million
project was made possible by a
partnership of the two colleges and
the Greater Wilkes-Barre Chamber
of Business and Industry, along with
help from die city of Wilkes-Barre
and Luzerne County.
Located at 7 South Main Street in
the Chamber's Innovation Center @
Wilkes-Barre, the “academic super­

store" operates as the joint campus
bookstore for Wilkes and King’s, and
serves the needs of the general
public. The bookstore occupies two
floors of the former Woolworth's
five-and-dime store building,
creating approximately 20,000
square feet of retail space.
The first floor of the historic
building looks like a traditional
Barnes &amp; Noble store with
newspapers, magazines and a wide
selection of books. It also includes
an 84-seat, full-service Barnes &amp;
Noble Literary Cafe with Starbucks
coffee, lounge chairs and tables, and
a spirit shop offering Wilkes and
King's merchandise and apparel. The
lower level of the building is where

college students can find textbooks,
school, office and dormitory
supplies, and anything else needed
for college life.
The bookstore project boasts a
few firsts. “This is the first time that
two colleges collaborated on a
project like this, making it the first
joint campus bookstore for Barnes
&amp; Noble,” said Fred Lohman, senior
vice president of real estate for the
Greater Wilkes-Barre Chamber of
Business &amp; industry and ’76 Wilkes
alumnus. The bookstore also is
Barnes &amp; Noble's first downtown
location in a Pennsylvania city other
than Philadelphia and Pittsburgh.

Recipe for Success
’’The idea for a joint bookstore has
been around a long time in one form
or another,” said Larry Newman,
vice president of economic and
community development for the
Greater Wilkes-Barre Chamber of

Business &amp; Industry. “It made sense
to combine the two campus
bookstores and move to common
ground in the heart of downtown.

The circumstances were never

correct before. It was not the right
location or the right time.”
Dr. Tim Gilmour, president of
Wilkes University, said it took the
right mix of people to make the
bookstore happen. “There are so
many groups that needed to come
together, and this time, we were
able to do that,” Gilmour said.
“Clearly, the president of King’s
[Rev. Thomas O’Hara] deserves a
tremendous amount of credit, along
with the mayor of Wilkes-Barre, the
Chamber and Barnes &amp; Noble. We
had a lot of people working
together and collaborating effec­
tively. It was a recipe for success.”
The idea to pursue a joint campus
bookstore downtown was revived
late summer 2005. “We [Wilkes]
broached the idea with King’s
College and the Chamber,” said
Scott Byers, vice president for
finance and general counsel for
Wilkes University. “We each had a
bookstore, and we didn’t think we
could provide the level of support
for students, faculty and staff with
those arrangements that we could
with a joint bookstore."

Securing a Retail Giant
The call from President Gilmour
regarding the opportunity to bring a
bookstore to Wilkes-Barre was
received by Paula Eardley, vice
president of campus relations at
Barnes &amp; Noble Booksellers. Eardley
visited Wilkes-Barre and went back
to Barnes &amp; Noble with enthusiasm
for the project.

we all got excited about bringing a
store to Wilkes-Barre. We saw the
vision that Dr. Gilmour and Father
O’Hara had.
“Barnes &amp; Noble is interested in
putting stores in communities that
want us,” he continued. “We liked
how the two college presidents came
together. We want to build relation­
ships and have partnerships. We
sensed that with Dr. Gilmour and
Father O’Hara, and wanted to be a
part of it."
College officials and Chamber
members said Barnes &amp; Noble
College Booksellers was selected to
operate the joint bookstore because
it brings a wealth of experience
and expertise to the table. “Barnes
&amp; Noble is a world-class retailer
and an excellent college book

Murals depicting athletics, campus life and Wilkes history are on display throughout the bookstore.

“Paula got us all excited about it,"
said Patrick Maloney, executive vice
president of Barnes &amp; Noble College
Booksellers. “It was a joint proposal
to provide a campus bookstore to
serve both Wilkes University and
King's College. 1 visited the site, and

supplier," Gilmour said. 'The
company is so well-known and
well-respected, and it will draw a
lot of students to downtown
Wilkes-Barre. Having Barnes &amp;
Noble here is key to the city's
recovery strategy."

Maloney explained that the term
"academic superstore" is used to
describe a store that is a mixture of a
traditional Barnes &amp; 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 &amp; Noble currently operates
more than 570 college bookstores.
Of those, nearly 50 are academic
superstores like the one in WilkesBarre. The Bames &amp; 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 Stale
University, Yale University, Georgia
Tech, DePaul University and
Dartmouth College.
“The academic superstore that
Bames &amp;r 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
Barnes &amp; 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 &amp; 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 &amp; Noble

R” place where the community could
go and congregate. It does much
more than provide required educa­
tional materials.”

Wilkes, said the new Barnes &amp;

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

“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 1 since my family is from Greece
and her family is from Italy, where

A rare architectural structure for

it features a stage for outdoor

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 fo

How It All Started
Since his undergraduate years,
Clayton has been extremely active at
Wilkes. Graduating in 1949 with a
bachelors 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,
Clayton and Theresa met while
working next door to each other.
Although Theresa didn't attend

Wilkes, through her husband she
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 Sendee 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 communitv
"We re really excited for the new
things happening at \\ ilkes and in
Wilkes-Barre." Theresa said. “We
hope our excitement is contagious
and that others will take pride in,
become a part of and come back to
Wilkes to see what’s been
happening. We’d like to think we’re
lighting a fire under the alumni in
some small wav and adding a new
dimension to the lite of the students
on campus.” I* I

Building a
Great Wilkes
BY DR.TIM GILMOUR, WILKES UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT

T'S HARDTO BELIEVE, BUT I'M ENTERING MY SIXTH YEAR AS PRESIDENT OF WILKES

University. And it has been such an honor and pleasure to serve.

When I accepted the presidency, I knew Wilkes was unique. It was unique
because of its commitment to students and its active involvement in the
region’s development. My thought at the time — and even more so today — is
that these are the ver}' qualities that the colleges of the future must possess.
Building on these qualities over the past five years, we have become an
even stronger institution. With the help of the entire university community, we
have defined mentoring as the way we connect with and challenge our students,
grown our enrollments by 30 percent, developed exciting new academic
programs, begun to revitalize the campus, provided more competitive
compensation and strengthened our finances — all things to be celebrated.
But as our journey to greater strength has progressed, there has been a surpris­
ing but significant turn of events. Without explicitly planning it, we have shifted
from being an institution that was working hard to be very good to one that has
the potential to be truly great. But to be great is even harder work and it involves
significant change. The university community is rising to the challenge, but we
are talking about change and it is both threatening and difficult. As one trustee
recently said to me, “I admire your ambitions for Wilkes, but I’m not sure every­
one has the faith in Wilkes you do.” I responded, “That’s my challenge — to help
as many as 1 can see the enormous opportunities before Wilkes and to believe we
can realize them.”
I know building a great Wilkes University will not be easy. But I also know
that the opportunities before us far outweigh any risks we might face. We will
need the help of our alumni — your talent, time and treasure — more than ever.
As heartening as the news about Wilkes is the progress in Wilkes-Barre. My
fitness program centers on walking around tire campus and town. Lately, I’ve
been feeling like a sidewalk superintendent to an awakening city. It is exhilarat­
ing. It’s not just the projects about to be completed or underway — the new 14
screen theatre, the renovation of the Sterling Hotel, the development of the river­
front, the installation of new streetlights, or the plans of local retailers to expand
or upgrade their establishments. It’s the significant shift in tone and attitude
among those with whom I work. There is a growing sense that our city will soon
become a lovely, artsy college town on the Susquehanna.
I have to tell you it’s fun to walk around campus and town and feel this sense
of optimism and possibility. And its even more inspiring to have the role I have
been dealt in all of this. Come to Homecoming this fall and see it all — you’ll be
so proud of your alma mater, nestled in a great, reawakening city and in the
process of defining a vital role for itself in the 21st century. I

Carlos Candelario ’06 of Harveys Lake, Pa., and Rachel Dyer ’06 of
Forestburgh, N.Y., have been selected to tour with the prestigious National
Players Touring Company in Washington, D.C. National Players, now in its
58th year, is the longest-running classical touring company in the United
Slates. This year, it will present William Shakespeare's Othello and Oscar
Wildes The Importance of Being Ernest.
Candelario will understudy the title role in Othello and Lane in The
Importance of Being Ernest. Dyer will play support roles in Othello and Lady
Bracknell in The Importance of Being Ernest. The company is scheduled to tour
the United States in the fall of 2006. Alumnus Ben Shovlin '00 toured with
National Players five years ago in Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing, joe

Wilkes Brings National
Publishing Firm to Campus
Etruscan Press, a nonprofit cooperative of poets and writers, will
relocate its operation and publication
headquarters to the Wilkes campus.
Previously housed with the English
department at Youngstown State
University in Ohio, Etruscan Press
has created a full-time managing
editor position and will provide
on-site experiential learning opportu­
nities for students in the creative
writing program as well as Wilkes
undergraduate students.
“While we delight in being able to
provide a congenial home for
Etruscan Press, we will benefit
greatly from the national exposure of
having the press here on campus,”
said Wilkes University President Tim
Gilmour. “This partnership also
sends a strong message about the
cultural richness of the region.
Having a university-based press with
the prominence of Etruscan will put
Northeastern Pennsylvania on the
literary world’s map.”
From its inception in 2001,
Etruscan Press has promoted books
that nurture the dialogue among
genres, achieve a distinctive voice
and reshape the literary' and cultural
histories of which they are a part.
Etruscan has published books by
H.L. Hix, Milton Kessler and William
Heyen, whose collection of poetry;
Shoah Train, received a National
Book Award nomination in 2004.
During its brief history, Etruscan
Press has garnered several prestigious
grants, including The National
Endowment for the Arts, The Ohio
Arts Council, and the Nathalie and
James Andrews Foundation.

partnership with Wilkes.

Alumnus Flies American
Flag Over Iraq For Wilkes
FootballTeam
This spring, Wilkes University
welcomed home a hero. U.S. Air
Force Captain Tom Yeager ’96
returned to campus for the first time
in more than six years to make a
special presentation to the Wilkes
football team. An F-15 fighter pilot,
Yeager flew an American flag over
Iraq on a recent mission for
Operation Iraqi Freedom. He
presented the flag, along with a
mission certificate, to head football
coach Frank Sheptock and more
than 80 members of the football
team who turned out to meet and
welcome the captain. The flag will

fly at Ralston Field during the fall
sports season.
Yeager, who credits his experiences
as a student athlete and coach
Sheptock for providing him with the
leadership skills necessary' to be a
good soldier, spoke to the team about
his career as a pilot, the war on
terrorism and the importance of team
building, leadership and mentorship.

^^^^ver the last few months, in conversations on and off campus i ha

B
U Wilkes University’s future. These conversations have been a won

derful exchange of ideas about Wilkes’ plans to become a truly gre
institution. I have learned that the Wilkes community is excited about this
worthy goal and ready to get to work on achieving it.
My conversations have also underscored the importance of explaining our
strategic planning process—where we’ve been and where we are going—and why
While most people arc aware of the progress we’ve made since 2001 when we
launched the university’s strategic plan, Vision 2010, they are not aware of the
revisions the Board of Trustees made this past June.
In 2001 our initiatives were about bringing the university back: regaining the
competitive advantage through exceptional academic programs; developing
an exceptional support environment; and building financial and institutional
strength. Action plans were implemented to achieve each of these initiatives.
The 2001 initiatives produced six new academic programs, increased stu­
dent enrollment by 31 percent, and led to a 10 percent increase in freshman to
sophomore retention rates (74 percent to 81 percent). We completed a campus
master plan, improved public safety and financial management practices, and
established a much better connection to our community through the Joint Urban
Studies Center. We also completed a S30 million capital campaign, upgraded the
Development Office, and increased annual fundraising. The Periodic Review
Report from the Middle States Commission on Higher Education confirmed our
outstanding progress and noted Wilkes’ potential for even greater things.
Change, however, is constant. And as an institution, we must respond to those
changes strategically and with passion. The publics we serve are pressing us to keep
tuition affordable and to increase the quality of our graduates. Our traditional mar­
ket, high school graduates, will decline in Pennsylvania—11 percent by 2015. There
is, however, substantial growth projected with the need for life-long and post-baccalaureate education. And there is the need to leverage technology to enhance access
to learning for present and prospective students and to improve business operations.
These are the challenges and opportunities our Revised Vision 2010 Plan addresses.
Like the original version, Vision 2010 has three strategic initiatives and a num­
ber of action plans—10 to be exact—but three have been selected for university­
wide emphasis during the 2005-2006 academic year. They are known as the Big 3.
They were selected because they have the greatest potential to address the oppor
tunities and challenges facing the university.
The Big 3 action plans are: 1) Build the capacity to deliver world-class mentor
ing, 2) Define and achieve enrollment growth, particularly in life-long and post
baccalaurreate education; and 3) Develop lean, customer-focused support in al1

university operations.
In the coming years, we will

New York Governor George Pataki Delivers Kirby Lecture
New York Governor George E. Pataki presented the Allan P. Kirby Lecture in Free
Enterprise and Entrepreneurship on November 3rd to a crowd of 500 in the Darte
Center. In his presentation, Governor Pataki addressed the “National Cry for
Political Leadership” and spoke about his experiences as a key leader during the
aftermath of the September 11th terrorist attacks. Pataki also sent a strong message
to budding entrepreneurs and business leaders to help develop the technologies
that will reduce the country's reliance on foreign oil and outlined a role for govern­
ment in that process. “Government’s role is to empower the individual, empower
the dreamer, and empower the entrepreneur with the opportunities to make dial
dream come true,” he said. Governor Pataki is the first Republican-Conservative
chief executive in New York state history and is currently serving his third and
final term in office. During his twelve years in office, he enacted stiffer penal­
ties and “no parole” for violent offenders. He also restored the death penalty and
ended parole for first-time violent felons. Governor Pataki recently chronicled his
political life in his book, Pataki: An Autobiography.

Wilkes recently hosted two former
members of Congress for a series of
forums and discussions with stu­
dents and faculty about the realities
of American government and politics
and the importance of bipartisan coop­
eration. Jim Bilbray (D-NV) and Nick

and solid waste management. The
Congressmen also met with members
of the Young Democrats and Young
Republicans campus clubs and sat for
an interview on Wilkes Today, a weekly
campus television show produced by
students in the communication studies
department. Wilkes was one of only 12

Amy Drobish '04

□robish Recruited as DNA Study Coordinator
Last year, Amy Drobish 04 was recruited by breast cancer researchers at the
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill interested in the research techniques
she learned as an undergraduate at Wilkes.
Drobish is study coordinator for a UNC team researching DNA repair genes in
women with and without breast cancer. “Anytime your body makes new cells,
your DNA gets copied," explained Drobish. “Sometimes there are mistakes in
those cells, and the DNA repair genes fix those mistakes.” According to Drobish,
if research finds that women with breast cancer have more repair genes in their
blood than women without breast cancer, that information might be used to cre­
ate a breast cancer screening test Armed with that knowledge, doctors would be
able to closely monitor their patients, making early detection more likely. In 2005
alone, 211,240 new cases of breast cancer were diagnosed in American women,
according to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation.
“Psychology is more research-based than most people realize,” said Debbie
Tindell, associate professor of psychology; who worked with Drobish at Wilkes.
“Her undergraduate work prepared her extremely well for the important work
she is doing now. ’ Wilkes psy chology students are given many opportunities
to become actively involved in faculty research, Tindell explained, and students
make formal a presentation of their findings during their capstone experience
Drobish hopes to continue in breast cancer research even after the study is
completed, perhaps becoming certified as a clinical research associate.

faith.” Marban said. However, studies
with mice have proven promising in
restoring function after heart attacks.
Research is moving to larger animals,
with the prospect of human studies by
the end of 2006.
"What is exciting is the possibility
of using cells that are a perfect genetic
match,” said Marban, who has been
conducting stem cell research for five
years. Ethical issues are avoided since
the cells can only grow into heart tis­
sue and no embryos are destroyed to
get the cells. His previous research has
included genetically engineered ver­
sions of stem cells.
Although Marban studied math­
ematics at Wilkes, he always knew he
wanted to go into medicine. He went
on to Yale University, where he entered
a joint M.DTPh.D. program to earn his
M.D. as well as a doctorate in physiolo­
gy. “This is a very quantitative field, so

Christopher B. Kocon '85, M’90 is try­
ing to give cell phones a longer charge
without sacrificing their compact size.
“Everybody wants everything
smaller but still functional,” he said
of the country's 182 million cell phone
subscribers. “It is semiconductors that
make those devices efficient.”
Kocon is senior manager for
U.S. research and development
for Fairchild Semiconductor in
Mountaintop, PA. His research focuses
on power management—develop­
ing semiconductors that manage the
power of cell phones, MP3 players,
video games, and home electron­
ics devices. Kocon’s semiconductors
manage battery power by figuring
out which options on a cell phone or
other device are not being used at the
moment and switching them off. “We
love cell phones with a lot of options,
hut we hardly ever use some of them,”
he explained.

semiconductors to be able to manage
thousands of amps of power and be
thermally stable. In a hybrid car, for
example, the electrical system needs
enough power to actually move the
vehicle, as well as manage everything
from brakes to air conditioning. “With
each generation of cars, there are more
and more systems being added that are
electrical,” he said. “There’s a continu­
ous need to improve the semiconduc­
tors and chips.”
So far, Kocon holds 22 patents,
with another five or so in the works.
“Most of my patent work is in finding
the newest ideas and new generation
of chips,” he said. “If you stop
innovating, your business will die.
There needs to be a continuous flow
of new ideas.”
As a Wilkes undergraduate, Kocon
was able to spark his future career
in research through his year-long
senior project. “The nice thing about
Wilkes is it’s not a larger school, so

they’re doing their project.”
For the past 10 years, Kocon has
been helping future researchers
get started. An adjunct professor
at Wilkes, he is teaching students
about nanoelectronics and computer
simulation. “Its impossible to do
leading-edge research without using
simulators,” he said. “Its students'

Uncovering the Caldera
BY TOM VENESKY

■ OE WILDE HAD GONE NEARLY TWO

■ days without sleep, yet the
■ thought of what lay beneath
his feet was more than
enough to keep him lucid.
The Wilkes University junior had been
chosen to help research a geological
phenomena called a “super volcano,”
or caldera, which is the largest type of
volcano in the world. And of all plac­
es, the caldera that kept Wilde awake
was not in some tropical locale, but in
the wilds of Wyoming.
Wilde, who is a dual major in com­
puter science and math, accompanied
Wilkes professors Sid Halsor and Bill
Toothill for the unique opportunity
to research the caldera in Yellowstone
National Park last summer. Wilkes is
one of a handful of universities from
across the country' invited to partici­
pate in the research.
18

The Yellowstone caldera is actually
a large crater, 31 miles across, formed
from the accumulation of thousands of
years of volcanic material. The caldera
erupts roughly every 600,000 years, and
the last eruption was 630,000 years ago,
according to Halsor.
The research teams monitored the
ground for millimeters of movement.
It’s a trip that Halsor and Toothill
have been making annually since
1999. “As a geologist, you couldn’t
ask for a better field site to work in
than Yellowstone,’’ Halsor said. “The
research is a blend of high-end tech­
nology and standard field geology. It’s
very rewarding."
And very beneficial to the lucky
students who accompany Halsor
and ToothiH. Before heading out to
Yellowstone, Wilde spent hours conduct­
ing geologic research and using high-pre-

cision GPS equipment. He assisted Halsor
and Toothill with packing the eight
cases of expensive GPS equipment to be
shipped to Wyoming ahead of time.
At the park, Wilde and students
from other universities were respon­
sible for monitoring eight research sta­
tions spread out across 50 miles of the
caldera. The data had to be collected
in a two-day window, which made for
a hectic time for Wilde.
“We drove back and forth to the
stations constantly for 48 hours; it was
tough," Wilde said. “There was a sense
of urgency because the data had to be
collected in that two-day period."
But amid the bustling pace, Wilde
came away with a multitude of new­
found skills.
“Working with the high-end GPS
equipment really expanded my knowl­
edge on certain survey technologies,”

he said. “I also learned a lot about data
processing and gained a lot of handson experience in the field. “It made
me realize how busy and exact this
work has to be.” The GPS equipment
used by Wilkes is different from com­
mercial GPS units in that it can pin­
point a location within centimeters.
Commercial GPS units are accurate
within several meters, Halsor said.
“There are very few institutions
with this sophisticated GPS technol­
ogy in their undergraduate programs,”
Halsor said.
While the experience gives the stu­
dents valuable skills and experience,
it also provides Halsor and ToothiH
with a unique research opportunity. “It
allows us to keep up with the technol­
ogy and applications,” ToothiH said.
“I have focused on GPS technology for
12 years, and Sid has expertise in geol­
ogy, so the caldera research puts us in
a position to combine our talents and
contribute our findings to the national
archive for future work.”
While a caldera eruption would be
catastrophic, Halsor said it’s unlikely
that an eruption of this scale will
occur in our lifetime.
But as the years of research progress,
Halsor and ToothiH say they are get­
ting closer to understanding the back­
ground behavior of the caldera system.
It takes years to uncover meaningful
trends of activity in a large scale data
set. We’ve got a good foundation
of data now, and we expect to gain
greater insight as we build upon and
further analyze our data. As long as
we can manage the complex logistics,
we 11 be going back every year." Il I

Allbaugh to set up the GPS units in the network.

VOLUME TWELVE, ISSUE THREE

BY DR. TIM GILMOUR, WILKES UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT

WILKES UNIVERSITY
President
Dr. Tm Gilmour

AM PLEASED TO REPORT SOME WONDERFUL NEWS FOR WHICH EVERY MEMB

Wilkes University family can be proud. A team of reviewers from th w™6
States Commission on Higher Education recently issued an exceptional! Q
positive assessment of the progress Wilkes has made over the past fiv ?
and for its potential for the future.
e ears

This assessment was expressed in the Periodic Review Report. These
required of all Middle States institutions at the mid-point in their ten-year ac
tation cycle to ensure that they are taking the steps necessary to meet the incr "
ingly demanding Middle States criteria.
To say we are well perceived by our reviewers is putting it mildly. They said
“Wilkes University is a center for excellent education, with a faculty, administra­
tion and staff whose priority is the education of leaders for today and tomorrow ”
The Middle States reviewers discovered an undeniable climate of academic
excellence here. They noted that “.. .Wilkes University is becoming known as a
place for exceptional education and exceptional opportunities for personal and
professional growth.”
The evaluation team was particularly impressed with the university’s planned
focus on mentoring to produce exceptional results in all of its academic pro­
grams and commented that the past several years have seen a complete revamp­
ing of the university’s financial management operation, creation of a transparent
budget process, and significantly improved food service, purchasing, and public
safety functions.
As someone who has dedicated his adult life to academics, I love to hear
words like transparent when describing a budget process. That word speaks vol­
umes about integrity and honesty, and those will always be watchwords at
this university.
I must mention a line that virtually leaps from the page of our Middle States
report. When commenting about our Campus Master Plan, the reviewers observed
that “Wilkes has unleashed its imagination on the future.” I can’t help but reflect
on what a wonderful commentary this is on all the work that we do here. At its
heart, the function of any institution of higher education is to touch society’s
tomorrows through the accomplishments of those we teach today.
Make no mistake, Wilkes has challenges to face to reach its full potential. We
will address those challenges head-on with the help of all of you and fulfill our
great promise as a university. Those challenges include reaching the ambitious
goals that the board of trustees sets with us. The Board has centered the universi­
ty’s strategic plan on three points of focus: excellence and growth in educational

U hy do people love Wilkes? The reasons are as diverse as the people themselves.

But there must be something special when, year after year, alumni recommend
Wilkes to their children and their children's children. A lot of families are making

Wilkes University a multigenerational part of the family—a part that permanently
connects them to the university's past...and to its future.

"We're celebrating the many connections legacy families have to Wilkes University, and we are

excited about telling the stories of how Wilkes continues to offer an experience that transcends the
generations," said Sandra Carroll, executive director of alumni relations.
Legacy families help expand the Wilkes family for the benefit of the entire university, according to

Mike Frantz, vice president for enrollment and marketing. "Alumni who recommend Wilkes to prospec ­
tive students are giving a great gift to their alma mater. That recommendation is a powerful endorse­

ment of the university—especially if the student is a family member," said Frantz.

The Zokas: Academic
Achievers at Wilkes

te9aS^c
6VTRAcevW°o0MS

Three sisters, three Wilkes University
students. For the Zoka family, 19901991 was the biggest Wilkes year of
all: Kim was a senior, Krista a junior,
and Kathy a freshman. Kim also
worked in the admissions office, giving
tours and educating potential students
about the Wilkes University experi­
ence. Krista was on the basketball
team, and Kathy was just starting the
studies that would lead to her graduat­
ing first in her class. “We all felt very
welcome at Wilkes,” Krista said. “To
me, Wilkes is like a big family.”
Although the three Zoka sisters
grew up in nearby Kingston, it wasn’t a
given that they would enroll at Wilkes.
After all, their parents, Suzanne and
Robert Zoka, might have pushed the
schools they attended (Marywood
University and the University of
Scranton respectively). Instead, the
eldest, Kimberly Ward ’91, decided
on Wilkes because of its academic
reputation and also because of a pro­
fessor who took the time to talk with
her about her initial goal of attending
medical school. Kim recalls that her
sister, Krista Rubino ’92, chose Wilkes
because of two people. “It was a com­
bination of me and the basketball
coach," she said. By the time sister

number three, Katherine Genovese
’94, was heading for college, she had
already taken an early calculus class at
Wilkes and visited her sisters enough
to know she would follow in their
footsteps. The scholarships all three
received helped seal the deal.
The girls did well. Kathy had a 4.0
grade point average and
received the Maxwell
award for graduating at
the top of her class, Kim
posted a 3.472, and
Krista 3.2. Today, Kim
uses her bachelors
degree in biology and
minor in chemistry at
Pfizer Inc. in Groton,
Conn., where she’s
a scientist in the
regulatory chem­
istry, manufactur­
ing, and controls
department.
Krista earned
a bachelor’s degree in
psychology/elementary education,
followed by a master’s in educational
development and strategies, and
taught first grade for eight years before
becoming a stay-at-home mom to her
three young children. Kathy earned a
bachelor's degree in math and a master's
in education and now teaches math at

GAR Memorial High School, just
a few blocks from the Wilkes
University campus.
“I tell my students to go to Wilkes,”
Kathy said. “1 tell them you don’t need
to go to a really huge school to get a
good education.”

The Boyles: Almost 50 Years

For the Boyle sisters, Wilkes University
offered a lifeline to higher education.
Scholarship aid was an important consideratzon for the Wilkes-Barre family
■nidi seven daughters. "Educating seven
children was quite a challenge to my
mother after my lather died in 1963,
recalled Patricia Boyle Heaman '61, the
eldest of the sisters. "Wilkes had a repu­
tation for offering an excellent educa­
tion in the liberal arts to students who
couldn't manage the financial strain of
room and board in addition to tuition.
It helped that each of the Boyle sisters,
who attended Wilkes as commuting stu­
dents, received a scholarship.
Five of Patricias six sisters followed
her to Wilkes:
• Stephanie Cawley '66 of White
Haven, now director of the Carbon
County Bureau for the Aging.
• Suzanne Rash '69 who was a reading
specialist in the Wilkes-Barre Area
School District until her death this

As the first Pawlush sibling to head
to college, George chose Wilkes because
of its academic reputation and low cost
and the fact that about 40 of his high
school classmates in Wilkes-Barre also
went to school there. He worked in
sports publicity as a student and became
the institution’s first sports information
director after he graduated. During his
11 years working at Wilkes in public
relations, he met his wife, Carol Corbett
Pawlush 79, who at the time was sec­
retary to the director of financial aid.
George is now the vice president of pub­
lic relations and community affairs for
Greenwich Hospital in Connecticut, and
Carol is a college relations officer for the
Yale New Haven Health System.
George Pawlush IV ’98, eldest
of George and Carol’s three chil­
dren, was bom during the Wilkes
years and was a frequent visitor
to the administration offices—as
a baby and toddler. Attracted to

of his father, George IV began in
the pharmacy program, switching
to accounting because a profes­

profession. His total Wilkes experi­
ence, which included the personal
attention he received from professors,
propelled George IV at a very young

age to a high profile position as an
assistant vice president and controller
at Wachovia Bank in Charlotte, N.C.
The elder George Pawlush noted,

careers. I think it’s really a testimony to
the education we received

Taking Action for Diversity
BY TRACEY M. DOOMS

NE YEAR AGO, WILKES

University’ adopted its
Diversity Action Plan,
designed to guide the
university’ in its quest to
become a more diverse community in
which cultural differences are under­
stood and valued. Today, concrete
results are already visible, even as
‘.'•■likes makes plans for the next two
decades...and beyond.
Among the diversity success stories
being told at Wilkes:
• New outreach programs target
potential students of color and other
underrepresented populations by vis­
iting high schools with higher enroll­
ments of minority students.
• Departments report annually
about progress on diversity
and multiculturalism.
• A dir ersity ambassador program
brought together more than two
6

dozen students from underrepre­
sented groups at the beginning of the
fall semester for a three-day retreat.
Upperclassmen took new students
“under their wings” to help them
adjust to campus and begin long­
term mentoring.
• A diversity series is bringing per­
formers from a variety of cultures
to campus.
• Efforts to seek and hire minority
faculty and staff are included in
each search process.

Rising to the Challenge
Although the entire university is work­
ing to turn the Diversity Action Plan
into reality, it has been led by Provost
Maravene Locschke. When she arrived
at Wilkes three years ago, one of her
primary goals was to increase diver­
sity—and appreciation for diversity—at
the university.

“We knew this would be challenging
in this geographic area,” she said. The
2000 U.S. Census tallied the Scranton/
Wilkes-Barre/Hazleton metropolitan
area population at 96.8 percent white;

at that same time, 96.4 percent of
Wilkes University students were white.
-Meanwhile, the makeup ofthe broader

L'.S. economv in which students will
work and live is changing dramatically
U.S. Census projections indicate that
people ofcolor will make up one-third
of the LLS. population by 2015 and
nearly half of the popuhtion by2050.
Loeschke set up a diversity’ task
force, which recommended creating
an administrative position response
for diversity. In March 2003, Alan
Zellner '72 was appointed the uni'®
sitys first director ofdiversity’- The
mer head wrcsding coach had sen
as coordinator of minority a®*ilS

Zellner’s first major task was to
write the Diversity Action Plan,
with input and approval from the
president and academic commu­
nity. Loeschke noted, “We’re very
proud that the faculty unanimously
approved the Diversity Action Plan."
The final plan was approved in
June 2004. The document lays out
the overall goal of promoting and
supporting a culture of increased
diversity at the university and in
the community, noting that “we are
motivated by the belief that students
who experience a more diverse
learning environment are better
prepared for personal and professional success in a global and diverse
world.” The plan’s view of diversity
and multiculturalism encompasses
not just ethnicity but also religious
belief, sexual orientation, age, gender, and ability.
The Diversity Action Plan outlines
fifive primary goals:
•• Create a more supportive campus
community that respects and
celebrates cultural, ethnic, and
racial experiences.
• Recruit, retain, and graduate a
racially and ethnically diverse stu­
dent body.
• Recruit and retain a racially and
ethnically diverse faculty and staff.
• Ensure that the Wilkes under­
graduate experience is racially and
ethnically diverse.
• Assign accountability to achieve
the long-term progress envisioned
in this plan.

Visible Results
The Diversity Action Plan has been in
place for a little more than a year, yet
achievements are already being made.
The primary reasons for such quick
progress, according to Loeschke, are
Zellners “energy” and the fact that
faculty believe in the importance of a
diverse culture.
“This shows the commitment of
management—from the president on
down—to ensuring that everyone who
comes to our campus feels welcome
and safe,” Zellner said.
Thanks to proactive measures, onefourth of new faculty hires for the
2005-06 academic year were from
diverse populations, including Chinese,
Japanese, Bahaman and Indian. The
faculty' search manual outlines new
procedures such as advertising posi­
tions in publications with large minor­
ity readership. “We’re not leaving it to
chance that we will get a diverse appli­
cant pool,” says Josephine Panganiban,
vice president of human and organiza­
tion development.
Panganiban noted that, once faculty'
from underrepresented populations
are hired, further measures work to
help them become accustomed to the
Wilkes environment. New faculty
members are assigned a mentor, for
example, but now the department
chair also follows up with activities
such as having lunch with the new
hire and his or her spouse.
“The biggest challenge is that
Wilkes-Barre itself is not a very
diverse population in terms of race,

although it is very diverse in terms
of religion, ethnicity, and culture,”
Zellner said. “Therefore, enticing
people of color to come into the area
is a major challenge for everyone."
As people from diverse cultures
move to the area—whether to live
and work or to attend college—he
noted, it's important both to help
current residents be sensitive to
change and to assist newcomers in
becoming comfortable.
The university is making great prog­
ress. The number of students from
diverse populations increased from 4.7
percent in fall 2000 to 6.9 percent in
fall 2005.
The Diversity Action Plan is also
moving into a new phase, as the
university considers recommenda­
tions of the Multiculturalism Across
the Curriculum Task Force for mak­
ing multiculturalism a part of stud­
ies across campus, said Gina Zanoli
Morrison, committee chair and assis­
tant professor of education. “People
are already doing wonderful things in
their courses," she said. For example,
the voices of women and minority
authors are being examined in litera­
ture classes, and teacher candidates
take a multicultural education course
“so they are prepared for America's
classroom,” Morrison said.
From curriculum to hiring pro­
cedures, diversity is being built into
everyday life at Wilkes University.
“1 know from experience,"
Locschke said, “a diverse campus is a
richer campus." I' I

Alumni, Friends Take Grand

Tour of Italy
More than 60 Wilkes alumni, staff, and
friends traveled to Italy this summer for
a Ifrday excursion. The group visited
sites from the Amalfi Coast to Venice
and along the tray established great
new friendships, had many laughs, and
created new memories.
The travelers toured the canals of
Venice, took gondola rides at sunset,
visited landmarks including the Statue
of David in Florence, the famous lean­
ing Tower of Pisa, and the Roman
Coliseum, and explored the ruins of
Pompey. The trip included guided
tours, dinners, and transportation
throughout the country:
“This is the place where legends
were made, every' story was a fairy’
tale, and I knew I would never want to
leave," said Michele Diskin ’95, associ­
ate director of alumni relations.
The tour ended in Rome where each
traveler took an illuminations tour of
the streets of Rome and made wishes
in the fountain. Perhaps some of the
wishes were for another European
adventure? The alumni office can cer­
tainly oblige! (See sidebar.)

FRESHMEN GET A WARM WELCOME,
HELPING HAND FROM THE FOOTBALL TEAM
Members of the Colonels football team lent a hand to more than 400 freshmen resident
students as they moved into campus dorms for the start of the fall 2005 semester.
Sporting t-shirts that read, "If we can't move it, it can't be moved," the team
helped students and parents carry boxes, computers, clothes, and furniture.
"This was a great opportunity for the players to meet incoming students and
parents and interact with all facets of campus," said Frank Sheptock, head football
coach. "We want our students to take pride in the university and take a leadership
role in the mentoring of freshman teammates and the student body as a whole."
Nearly 950 freshmen and returning students reside on campus this academic
year, up from 860 last year.

Wilkes Announces
Nanotechnology Guaranteed
Placement Partnership
Wilkes and Luzerne County
Community College (LCCC) have
entered into an articulation agreement
to offer LCCC students guaranteed
placement into the university’s bachelor
of science in applied and engineering
sciences program.
Under the agreement, students
earning an associate’s degree in either
nanofabrication manufacturing tech­
nology or electronics engineering
technology from LCCC will be award­
ed transfer and advance placement
credits, allowing them to matriculate
into Wilkes’ engineering program as a
third-year student
Three nearby public school districts
have also entered into the cooperative

educators like to claim a fair degree of credit for this achievement citing
, i
J J tire proven blessings of the liberal arts, dedicated faculty, superior facilil^——ties, a curriculum focused on career opportunities and the advantages of
die Wilkes “reputation” conferred on each graduate.
None of these attributes, however, quite captures the gratitude dtat I hear from
our most distinguished alumni. Years ago, someone at Wilkes truly believed in you.
It may have been an athletic coach, the theatre professor or the faculty advisor to
the debate team. This person made a difference in your choice of a career, your apti­
tude for rewarding work and became a role model for a life of purpose and dedica­
tion. We call this marvelous human interaction by a host of names, but for our
purposes, let’s call it mentoring.
Mentoring is as old as humankind. It is the unselfish passing forward of wisdom
from one generation to another. The word is derived from the Greek — Mentor — a
friend of Odysseus who was entrusted with the education of Odysseus’ son,
Telemachus. Mentoring in our world is a voluntary, individual activity — freely
entered into by the persons involved. Take away this freedom of choice and you can
still have learning, as in “learning the ropes” on British warships. Put the State in
charge of mentoring and you witness the weird world of Sparta. We know what is
good about mentoring and that it has been a significant part of dre Wilkes experi­
ence. Will it become an even bigger part of our future?
This University will be dedicating itself over the next year to investigating how to
turn the mentoring experiences we currendy provide into a powerful, individual­
ized experience for every student. Indeed, we want Wilkes to be known for provid­
ing the best mentoring experience in the country for alumni, students, faculty, and
our staff. It will be University wide and it will be what we are about as an institution
and a culture. We believe that mentoring lies at the heart of a superior education.
Over the next several issues of the Universe, we will be reporting on our efforts to
build a great mentoring program, and we will be calling on many of you to help us
in this major undertaking. Ill

Well-rounded... well prepared
BY DAWN LEAS

Learning opportunities outside the classroom prepare
today's students to become tomorrow's leaders.
I EARNING AT WILKES IS MORE THAN GOING

I to class, taking tests, completing
projects and checking courses
off a required list while inch­
ing toward a diploma semester after
semester. The undergraduate experi­
ence at Wilkes is a four-year journey
that is multi-purposed, multi-layered
and interconnected. It is no longer
■"good enough” to direct all energies in
one area. To do a job well today, people
need to cultivate a stable of skills
including core knowledge of field of
study, interpersonal skills, team think­
ing, and leadership. And the University
is making strides in creating an atmos­
phere in which students have many
opportunities to hone skills, realize tal­
ents, and become well-rounded as they
6

get ready for the real world.
At Wilkes, students are encouraged to
look beyond the classroom and academ­
ics to outside activities that not only
enhance the educational experience, but
also nurture personal development.
A FEW POSSIBILITIES...

According to Philip J. Ruthkosky, direc­
tor of student development, a goal of his
office is to “offer diverse and creative
programs that allow all students with
different backgrounds and interests to
participate.” The Office of Student
Development encompasses community
service, internships, leadership pro­
grams, student activities, the multicul­
tural affairs office and campus
interfaith. Offering a cross-section of

programs including volunteer opportu­
nities, work experience through intern­
ships, outings to sporting and cultural
events, skydiving, rock climbing, skiing,
and ice skating, Wilkes allows students
to leam through experience.
He added, “We are capturing the
value of experiential learning. (We) act
as liaison between the classroom and
the real world.”
Community service opportunities at
Wilkes are many and varied including
Habitat for Humanity, Red Cross Blood
Drives, and Alternative Spring Break
programs. Ann Loyek, coordinator of

community service, believes that serv­
ice is a learning experience that helps
students grow while creating a sense of

social responsibility and self-awareness.

“Overall, we help link students with
service opportunities in the communi­
ty,” Loyek explained. “(It) is a two-way
street; we are the bridge between
them.”

Studying abroad for a semester, a
summer or an academic year is also an
option for students to learn more about
their majors and how their fields of
study relate globally while also having
the experience of living in a new coun­
try and culture.
Dr. Wagiha Taylor, professor of
International Business and Economics,
organizes a spring break trip abroad for
the students in MBA 598 Global
Business Experience and BA 398
International Business Experience.
This year she accompanied 49 students
and several chaperones to London,
Paris, Brussels, Frankfurt and
Amsterdam to study these large finan­
cial centers of the world. The group
spent two days in each city with tour
directors giving educational presenta­
tions at various sites. Dr. Taylor feels
that whether the students are business
majors or using the course as an elec­
tive, the trip leaches them that global
thinking is the future.
“I really enjoy the fact that there arc

no limits to the lessons learned
through travel,” Dr. Taylor said. “1 like
the fact they will always remember the
educational experience they get from
these journeys.”
The bottom line is that well-round­
edness is achieved by getting involved doing community service, playing a
sport, working on a play, joining a club,
taking an educational trip abroad, com­
pleting an internship, studying in a for­
eign country or writing for The Beacon
or Manuscript. The possibilities are lit­
erally endless.
A LARGER VIEW...

The world is growing smaller ever}'
day. Students are finding employment
with international companies, working
with people of diverse backgrounds,
and traveling for business. As the
world becomes more interrelated,

learning needs to as well. Students are
now seeing the importance of partici­
pating in group activities and hands-on
experiences to gain knowledge for
tomorrow.
Dr. Maravene Loeschke, Wilkes
University Provost, explained that
often times outside activities can
strengthen the skills students are learn­
ing in academic disciplines. She also
pointed out that well-rounded students
are better prepared for professional
success. To achieve this, Wilkes faculty
and staff act as guides in a very active
and deliberate advising process to help
students select extracurricular activities
that best fit their needs. For example, a
student who lacks team experiences
may be directed to join a spons team or
a play to leam skills that can be carried
over into a first job.
Personal independence. Community
responsibility. Awareness of self and of
the big picture. Solid academic founda­
tions complemented by innovative
extra and co-curricular activities that
aim to produce exceptional students
who are well-prepared for life after col­
lege. The educational experience at
Wilkes is continually strengthening
and adapting to an environment that is
becoming more and more globally con­
nected. Ill

ential learning. (We) act as liaison

TRACY KAUFFMAN M'03 WITH HOMER, AN EIGHT-MONTH-OLD PIT-BULL MIX AT THE HUMANE
SOCIETY OF HARRISBURG'S EAST SHORE SHELTER.

BY KALEN CHURCHER '97

For some teachers, summertime means furthering their
own educations. For others, its a chance to finish those putoff-until-tomorrow tasks. Whatever the situation, vacations
allowforthe 'me-time'that is often forgotten during the
school year.
B

g HEN SCHOOL LETS OUT

B g B g for the summer,
jy ^g teachers are often
W
W quick to immerse
themselves in their favorite pastimes.
Dr. Michael Speziale, Wilkes’ director
of graduate teacher education, who
himself enjoys woodworking when
time permits, says that behavior ulti­
mately enhances what teachers have
to offer.
“The richer their background, the
more they can bring to the classroom. Its
applying your mind in a different way.”
Painting initially drew Denis Yanashot
MOI and 03 to art. The Scranton, Pa.,
8

resident wielded an airbrush and
spray’ gun and attacked oversized can­
vases to create his pieces. Today, he’s
all but retired those materials.
“I don’t even want to paint any­
more. I just want to carve stone,”
Yanashot explained. “I still keep a stu­
dio on my third floor, but there hasn’t
been anything on the easel for some
time.”

An art instructor, at Riverside
Junior/Senior High School in Taylor,
Pa., Yanashot teaches three-dimen­
sional design, including ceramics and
sculpture. For him, summer signifies
eight-hour workdays in his outdoor
studio, carving muhi-hundred-pound

slabs of stone. The process begins in
springtime when he heads to Vermont
to choose the stone. Typically, he
leaves with a few pieces and an occa­
sional antique or two (another pas­
sion of he and his wife, Mary Grace).
Eventually, the Wilkes alumnus
hopes to carve enough large pieces about 20 — to hold a gallery7 showing.
And even though Yanashot would
love to spend every day carving, he
beams when he tells of a students
work displayed at a prestigious art

gallery.
“It’s nice to see your students get
awards. You think, maybe they did get

something from (class).’’

One might say it just wasn’t in the
cards — or in this case the tiles — for
Jeff Baird to become a millionaire.
Baird, who received an Instructional
Technology Specialist certificate from
Wilkes in 2003, spends most of his time
as a learning support and lead technol­
ogy teacher at South Mountain Middle
School in the Allentown (Pa.) School
District. But not so long ago, the Trivial
Pursuit aficionado, prompted by his
wife and son, auditioned for — and
secured — a seat on ABC’s Who Wants
To Be A Millionaire.
“From the day I got the phone call,
’til the day that I got on the show, I
don’t think there was a second that it
wasn’t in my head,” Baird recalls. “I
studied my butt off.”
Unfortunately, Scrabble wasn’t on his
study list, and Baird vividly remembers
the question that stopped his $1 mil­
lion quest.
In the game of Scrabble, ivhal docs a
red square signify?

Out of lifelines, most of whom were
Wilkes professors or students, he left
the game with 58,000 and show host
Meredith Vieira to provide the answer:
triple word score.
Millionaire or not, it was an exciting
break. Baird, also an instructor in
Wilkes’ Graduate Teacher Education
Program, stayed in the same hotel as
romance novel heartthrob Fabio, and
managed a passing hello to
Millionaire’s original host, Regis
Philbin. “It was very exciting and
intimidating... the whole process was
like being king for a day.”
There’s no doubt the dog days of sum­
mer are a favorite for Tracy Kauffman
M 03. As a reading support teacher,
head teacher, and instructional support
teacher at South Lebanon (Pa.)
Elementary’ School, Kauffman has min­
imal free time. And as summer rolls
into place, her pace only quickens.
For five years, Kauffman has volun-

leered at the Humane Society of
Harrisburg and is a founding member
of “The Fur Ball,” held annually in
November. Last years formal event,
that included a live and silent auction,
raised $37,000, bringing the Balls threeyear total to S83.000.
“I love animals, and I grew up on a
horse farm (in Bucks County, Pa.),”
Kauffman explained. “We learned to
respect and have compassion for ani­
mals from my parents.”
That compassion has led her to res­
cue pit bulls and involve her entire
school in collecting food and supplies
for the local animal shelter. The project
is something in which the children
become very' involved. “The first year,
(donations) lined up and down the
hallways. That pumped up the kids
and they wanted to do more.”
With the 2004 Fur Ball barely behind
her, the Wilkes alumna is already gear­
ing up for this years event. And with
summer vacation only a few months
away, a time when she does much of
her volunteering, its likely she'll be
stepping out of the classroom and into
the kennel very7 soon. I ■ 1

�Juggling more than
grades and games
BY STEVE BENNETT

OR SOME STUDENT-ATHLETES,

juggling dme between athlet|
ics and academics can be
■ tough. Rarely is there enough time
for anything more than books, prac­
tices and games.
But for three Wilkes University
student-athletes, there is more to col­
lege life than just the classroom, athlet­
ic fields and gymnasiums.
Sophomore Alicia Cain of
Hummelstown, Pa., not only plays
field hockey, but also rides horses.
Senior John Muscarella is a wrestler,
but has his artwork displayed in a
storefront in downtown Wilkes-Barre.
Beth Hom, a freshman from
Flemington, NJ, is on the tennis team,
but when she is not returning serves
or rushing the net, she is a semi-pro­
fessional BMX bike racer.

They are all certainly unique inter­
ests, but interests they obviously enjoy.
Cain grew up around horses and her
mom, Theresa, liked to ride as well.
However, there was one problem for
Alicia — she was allergic to horses.
Forced to wear a surgeons mask when
she began riding at age 13, she eventu­
ally grew out of having to wear the
mask and now travels throughout
Maryland and Pennsylvania for compe­
titions.
“1 was determined to do it when I
was 13,” Cain said. “I had a pony when
I was little. My moms background
helped me out a lot. I was very lucky
she was interested. Now, my mom has
one of my older horses.”
Cains current horse Trinity, made
the trek from Hummelstown to
Northeast Pa. with her when she

enrolled at Wilkes. Cain wanted to
make sure there was a place for Trinity
to stay before she came to college.
During the field hockey season, Cain
rides about three times a week. After
the season, the number jumps to about
five or six times per week.
“I have done a lot of fiat work,” Cain
said. “Within die past few years I have
gone to competitions in Maryland and
Pennsylvania and next year I am going
to go to New Jersey.”
Cains accolades include die first
level GMO (Group Member
Organization) and the Luzerne
Championship. Riders are considered
Junior Young Riders until they turn 21.
There are eight regions in the United
States and she took first place for her
division.
Because riding horses is a passion,
the pharmacy major recendy founded
an Equestrian Club al Wilkes.
“The club is for people who want to
learn about horses. I hope by die time I
graduate, it will be a club where we
could compete competitively. 1 have
talked to a lol of people on campus who

PHOTOGRAPHY.

are interested in horses.”
While Cain is out riding horses,
John Muscarella is painting murals.
The business major with a minor in art,
has taken an art class every semester he
has been at Wilkes and credits his an
teacher, Sharon Bowar, with keeping
him interested.
“She was the driving force behind
it,” Muscarella said.
Muscarella painted a mural dial
hangs in the Stark Learning Center and
recently took part in a project to help
beautify empty downtown storefronts
in Wilkes-Barre.
Muscarella took his first art class
when he was a sophomore at Riverdell
High School (N.J.) and continued once
he got to Wilkes. While he has no idea
how far his art will take him, he plans
on continuing to pursue his interest.
“I still plan on doing it,” Muscarella
said. “1 don’t know where 1 will go with

sculpture, ceramics, watercolor, photog­
raphy and printmaking.
When Beth Hom is not attending
classes or playing on the tennis team,
she is out riding her bike. But she is
not on your typical bike ride through
the Wilkes-Barre area. She is a com­
petitive BMX racer with an eye
on the Olympics in 2008 when it
becomes a medal sport.
She began riding quads in 2000 with
her father. But with her mother think­
ing quads may be too dangerous, she
settled for dirt bikes — a decision that
has definitely turned out for die better.
“1 grew up around racing and I have
been racing for five years,” Hom said.
“1 turned Elite when I was 16.”
Horn currently has ten sponsors and
mostly races in her home state of New
Jersey. She practices during the week in
the Wilkes-Barre area and has been to
Harrisburg to race on occasion. She

“I practice March through December
and during die week I practice in
Wilkes-Barre,” Horn said. “I mostly
compete in New Jersey.”
What has helped her career is train­
ing with Greg Morgan, also a New
Jersey native who is No. 1 in the
World. It is that experience which she
hopes will help her get to the
Olympics.
“That's definitely a goal,” Hom said.
“There are national competitions all
over. I have never been to the grand
nationals.”
Despite already having ten spon­
sors, in order to get to the world com­
petition she needs to find a national
sponsor.
“I’m looking for some new sponsors,
1 need a national sponsor to get to
worlds, that is what I am training for
right now. This is something that is
really fun and I enjoy doing it.” I

FOR THREE WILKES UNIVERSITY GRADUATES WHO ZEALOUSLY PURSUE INTERESTS
THAT ARE ANYTHING BUT ORDINARY, THAT LINE FALLS AWAY AS EASILY AS SAND THROUGH WATER.

WHETHER TRACKING BIG GAME IN ALASKA, ENTHRALLING AN AUDIENCE WITH A MAGIC TRICK

OR BREATHING LIFE INTO A CIVIL WAR CHARACTER WHO'S BEEN DEAD FOR DECADES,
THESE WILKES ALUMNI DEVOTE CONSIDERABLE TIME, MONEY AND ENERGY

TO WHAT CAN ONLY BE DESCRIBED AS TRUE PASSIONS.

BY DAWN SHURMAIT1S

Why such dedication? According to Wilkes University psychology professor Dr. Carl Chameiski having interests outside work
and family can lead to personal satisfaction, a sense of meaning and a degree of happiness rarely found anywhere else. “Balance
is an important piece of life, says Chameiski, co-author of “Feeling Good is Good for You.” The book details how pleasurable
activities such as eating chocolate and even petting a dog can boost your immune system. “If you’re truly interested in some­
thing, a pleasurable activity can help keep you healthy,” says Chameiski. Maybe that explains why Americans spend more than
S25 billion a year on crafts and hobbies.
For Dr. Jay Ungar 70, it comes down to this: “My magic is my life.” For Mollie Back ’56, Civil War re-enactment served as an
antidote to sorrow, an interest that broke through the fog of grief that enveloped her after her husband died. For Edward
Mollahan 81, an investment banker who spends his work days practically attached to three phone lines, a computer and his cell
phone, big oame hunting provides the perfect solution for stress. Ungar goes one step further, incorporating tricks into his med­
ical^ practice as^a magic formula for a long, healthy life. No matter what their interest, each steadfastly supports diversions that
beckon long after die work day is dotme. “If 1 didn’t enjoy it, I wouldn’t do it,” says Back. “Its where your interests take you. They
^become your life’s work.”

Uttered by magicians everywhere, the
word “abracadabra” actually comes
from the Hebrew expression “1 create
as 1 speak.” For dedicated magicians
like Ungar, magic is far more than mere
“tricks.” The real magic is in tire con­
nection between tire magician and the
audience. Ultimately, Ungar tries to
make people feel belter, whether
they're friends at a party or patients at
the other end of his stethoscope.
“There is a definite overlay between
medicine and magic,” he says. “I’ve got
my family, my medicine, my friends
and my magic. It’s all rolled into one.”
A big believer in helping others,
Ungar also spreads wisdom learned from
more titan 25 years as a doctor to stu­
dents and aspiring physicians. In a lec­
ture entitled “Making Magic Happen,”

he offers the following set of rules: “Go
to sleep with a clear conscience. Be
proud of the reflection that greets you in
the morning. Find your passion and live
it. Sweat the details. You’ll stand out in a
crowd. Always say hello.”
“This prescription will make magic
happen,” says Ungar, an internist as
well as a geriatric specialist in
Massachusetts, where he treats (and
tricks) patients aged 16 to 106. “I really
believe people are pretty much the
same, regardless of age,” he says. “If
you treat everybody with respect and
dignity, and make them feel special,
you’ll transcend age." At the end of
each office visit, Ungar asks patients if
they want to see some magic. "People
who’ve been coming to me for years
say 'Doc, I’m fine. Lets get to the fun
stuff.’ It's the whipped cream and cher-

ry on top of the visit.”
Ungar’s fascination with magic —
feared as the devil's handiwork in
medieval Europe and outlawed in the
British colonies — dates to first grade,
when someone pulled a nickel out
from behind his ear. “It was like 'shazam.’ I read all the magic books 1 could,”
he says. He continued practicing and
performing magic through medical
school and residency, taking lessons
along the way from some of the top
magicians in the world, including
Slydini, a true master of misdirection.
The brand of magic Ungar has mas­
tered is called "close-up” magic, a very
intimate magic relying more on sleightof-hand card and coin tricks instead of
disappearing rabbits, sawing people in
two and the like.
For Ungar, the “shtick" is the trick.

13

�'What am I doing here? to
'How am I going to
pursue my quarry?'"

Instead of mere "now you see it, now
you don’t, ’ Ungar incorporates stories
about his own experiences, feelings
and beliefs into his act to further
enthrall his audience. He has so many
stories hes written a 250-page book
called. "Bringing Magic to Life." The
book, which he hopes to publish this
spring, is his take on magic, medicine
and life. The "author’ is Ragnu (Ungar,
spelled backwards; “I’m a kid at heart
who likes to share the excitement and
wonder of magic with others,” he says.
Along the way. Ungar’s amassed a
library of illusion that’s as extensive as
his medical library He also religiously
attends magic conventions, always on
the lookout for that next, great trick.

14

Magic, he says, helps keep his energy
level up, his mind sharp and his body
healthy. It also makes him feel good,
especially when he performs at charita­
ble functions. ‘‘When people take up
magic as a vocation, they get stuck on
it. People who are into magic, are really
into magic. I think passion is really
important in life."
A BIG HOBBY

When Ed Mollahan ’81 talks about
hunting, he becomes almost Zen-like
in his descriptions. From the start, he
says, it was never about just bagging a
deer. "A lot of people think hunting is
just I have a gun. A deer runs in front
of me. I shoot it.’ It’s really not about

the shooting,” says Mollahan, a Sr. VR
forJP Morgan Chase &amp; Co., in New
York City. “It’s about the tracking, the
understanding of the animal’s habitat.
When you’re out in the wilderness you
have a lot of time to think, from 'What
am I doing here?’ to Tiow am I going to
pursue my quarry?’ It’s not just about
killing somedting.’’
For Mollahan, there’s his career.
There’s his wife and two children. And
then there’s hunting. It’s an activity that
fills his life — and his house. He now
has so many animal heads and antler
racks in his office he’s seriously consid­
ering adding on another room to his
Andover, N.J. home. When he isn t
actually hunting, or planning a hunt,

Mollahan is reading about hunting,
honing up on his woodsman and sur­
vival skills with magazines like Field
and Stream, Outdoor Life and Peterson’s.
Is he obsessed? Chametski says no.
“Only in the extreme can activities
become detrimental — if a hobby
interferes with your life in some way
and becomes counter-productive.’'
In a typical year, Mollahan might
spend upwards of 57,000 on his hobby.
Aside from the cost, such trips also
mean time away from work and family.
So far, Mollaharis wife has proved sup­
portive. As balance, Mollahan spends
most of his weekends with his kids,
coaching ball and volunteering at his
community recreation center. I uckily.

his children — aged 13 and 7—are
both into hunting and target shooting.
Will they ever join him on the trail?
"Ultimately” he says, “it's up to them.”
Mollaharis interest in the outdoors
began as a child, when his grandfather
would take him and his three brothers
fly fishing in what was then rural New
Jersey. During visits to family near
Wilkes-Barre, Mollahan would hunt
small game like pheasant and rabbit
with a 20-gaugc shotgun. He eventually
graduated to deer hunting. In the late
1080s, he began pursuing bigger game
like mountain goats, pronghorn sheep,
elk, black bear and even grizzly bears.
For him, hunting is a social activity,
something he shares with boyhtxxl

pals he expects to grow gray with. It
also prorides die best possible relief to
the demands of a strenuous job. “Its a
counter balance to work." he says,
"Investment banking can be crazy." So
far. his most remote big game hunt has
been to Alaska’s rugged Brooks Range.
His first trip took place in too?, with
two friends. The camp was so remote
they had to charter a small plane and
ride on horseback to get there. There
was no noise. No lights No nothing.
Except animals. "Alaska is crazy. You
see all these moose. w oh es and hears
walking around In some cases, the ani­
mals have net er seen humans before
Its a realh different experience. ’
Camping in mountains ",&lt;W feet

above sea level, dealing with torrential,
tropical-like downpours by day and
snow at night, tracking prey for 12-14
hours a day. Il wasn’t exactly Cancun.
Mollahan loved it. “It’s one thing to go
to a farm in Pennsylvania and sit in a
tree stand. It’s another to go to Alaska.
You belter be prepared,” Mollahan says.
“It can drop 40 degrees in one day.”
Natures hazards aside, just consider
this: an Alaskan grizzly can weigh 1,300
pounds and stand more than 10 feet
high. “If you get close to him, you belter
have a high caliber rille,” Mollahan says.
Seeing a bear close up, in the wild, like
that can be completely unnerving.
There's an element of risk you thrive on.
You don’t want to err.”
On another trip, the crew set their
sites on rams. But not just any rams.
Rams with horns that curled at least 38
inches. Trophy rams. Using S2.500 spot­
ting scopes, the hunters spent most of
die first few days hiking up and down
mountains in pursuit of the perfect
horn. Eight days in and the closest they
came was a ram whose horns measured
a mere 37 inches. Not good enough. “It
can be nerve wracking,” Mollahan
says. “It was legal to shoot rams that
were smaller. But that wasn’t what we
wanted. ” They ended up going home
empty handed.
To Mollahan, the trip was still worth
every' penny — every considerable
penny. Big game hunting is not cheap.
According to a recent U.S. Fish and
Wildlife survey, nearly 40 percent of
U.S. adults — or 77 million people —
spend about $101 billion on wildliferelated pursuits annually. Big game
hunters must calculate airfare, licens­
ing fees, equipment, outfits, guide fees
and gear (Mollahan owns about 14
shotguns, rifles and muzzle loaders). A

single excursion can run into the tens
of diousands. And that's not counting
taxidermy fees. Typically, hunters
donate the bulk of their kills to home­
less shelters near where they hunt.
They take home the skin and the head,
in special packing. The biggest concern
is breakage. Homs can be fragile.
“Once, I literally carried a set of horns
through Newark airport on my back.
That got a lot of looks.”
So far, Mollahan has hunted in all
but one of Canadas provinces, Alaska,
Florida, Texas, New Mexico, North and
South Dakota, Montana, Illinois,
Maine, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and
Wyoming, where he got caught in a
blizzard for nearly three days, stuck in
a snow drift with winds blowing 40
mph. The goal is to “shoot bigger” than
the last hunt. So far, the biggest animal
Mollahan’s bagged has been an 850pound elk from Canada. Yet, he insists
it’s not about die size or even the kill.
“ For a lot of guys, a successful hunt
depends on whether they kill somediing. When you’re paying a lot of
money you can understand that. But,
for me, I’m not going to harvest an ani­
mal unless it’s a quality animal.”
He takes one hunting trip a year.
Coming up: South Dakota, for white
tail and mule deer. Nirvana? Africa. But
with a safari running at least $15,000 —
and two college funds to consider — it
may take a while. “1 enjoy the chal­
lenge in anything 1 do, whether it’s
work or family. It’s all a different chal­
lenge. It makes life interesting. I love
it.”
A CIVIL ACTION

Mollie Back '56 remembers the exact
moment she decided to take back her
life. Her husband, Pete ’61, had died ol

kidney and heart failure. In mourning,
she had an epiphany. “I was silling in
the rocking chair watching TV, just lis­
tening to the clock lick and a light bulb
went on over my head. I thought I’ve
got 20 or 30 more years to go. I’m not
going to just sit here in this rocker.’ 1
was in a blue funk for three years. It
lakes a while to really sing again.” For
Back, what brought her back to the
land of the living was a deepening
interest in Civil War re-enactment.
Chametski says hobbies and inter­
ests are a great way to combat depres­
sion, which is often highlighted by
periods of great inactivity. “A marked
symptom of depression is an inability
to get pleasure,” he says. “You’ve got to
get yourself up and moving.”
Back went so far as to move all the
way to Gettysburg, die Civil Wars most
hallowed ground. But before she did,
she became a devotee of re-enactment,
which is one of the fastest growing
hobbies in the United States. One of
the many web sites dedicated to the
pastime says re-enactment “reinforces
our sense of pride in our heritage.. .it's
something in which the entire family
can participate. It’s educational and,
finally, its a great way to escape the
worries of today and 'pretend' in the
great outdoors.”
Immersed (and encouraged by her
three grown children). Back pored over
Civil War books, diaries and battle
accounts. She was hooked on history;
taking as many adult history' classes at
die community college as she could.
Eventually, she became a civilian inter­
preter at the historical home of Mt. Ida,
at die ruins of the Patapsco Female
Institute in Ellicott City, MD and at die
Schrivcr House in Gettysburg. She’s
also an experienced storyteller of dra-

Wilkes was, and still is, an integral
part of my life. It played a major role in

deeply rooted to the mature work ethic
and moral compass that I was exposed
to throughout my Wilkes Experience!’
In reality; an awful lot of the meaning
of Wilkes could be found and interpret­
ed in its Alma Mater. Let me share this
one personal experience with you...
In the summer of 1947, John
Florkiewicz (’50) and I were helping
Mr. Jervis and a few other maintenance
crew workers put up the Wilkes
College sign in the front of Chase Hall.
After its completion, John and I were

Farley was at the piano playing the
Alma Mater. She saw us and immedi­
ately asked, “John and Charles, I need
your help. Would you please come
over here and as I play, sing along. If

you were there and witnessed it all, you
would still be laughing. After our first

“slosh thru,” Mrs. Farley looked at us
in a very understanding way and said.
“Boys, lets do it again.” So away we
went. “Wilkes, Our Alma Mater, We
pledge out hearts to thee. Honor, faith,
and courage, Truth and loyalty...” Now
its your turn, go ahead....finish it!
For professional growth reasons I
completed various graduate studies and

programs at Temple, Penn State,
Villanova and Walden Universities. Each

institution afforded me a different and
unique perspective of my chosen career.
They were invaluable blocks in the
building of my life’s work. Yet. the pass­
ing of time affords me invaluable insight.
This insight leads me to the conclusion
that the keystone in my building is and
was Wilkes. I am eternally indebted to
the Wilkes Family for a lifetime of
health, happiness and prosperity: l&gt; I

VOLUME TWELVE, ISSUE TWO

The Buck
Stops Here
BY DR. TIM GILMOUR, WILKES UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT

CANDALS AT PUBLICLY TRADED COMPANIES LIKE ENRON AND MCI-WORLDCOM

so enraged lawmakers several years ago that Congress passed the
Sarbanes Oxley Act in 2002, which makes for-profit CEOs and CFOs
liable for the accuracy of their financial reports. This has naturally led to
a call for higher education to adopt the same financial reporting principles.
This summer the Board of Trustees of Wilkes, along with the administration,
engaged in die major task of planning Wilkes’ future through the year 2015. This
task included adoption of a very ambitious master plan and discussions about
projected budgets, tuition charges, debt level, governance structure and how all of
these fit with our mission. Another part of that planning included ways in which
Wilkes could improve its financial reporting. Towards that end, the board is con­
sidering creating a Governance Committee and elevating the Audit Committee to
a full-standing committee. Both steps are in keeping with best practice in the forprofit sector and will probably be required in two or three years. More itnportandy,
these changes are the right thing to do. Such an intensive study of our future and
an even deeper commitment to ethical business practices will take Wilkes to the
forefront of its peer institutions.
I believe that being ethical and true to our mission is the heart and soul of
responsible leadership. My inclination, in fact my strongly held belief, is that
we must disclose as much as possible. In todays climate of public relations,
this is known as “transparency.” Frankly, telling people where you are headed
is part of this trust. We are committed to being an organization that is ethical
and socially responsible.
This openness and transparency were evident in the way Wilkes developed its
master plan, which commits us during the next decade to a significant upgrade
of our physical plant, including the construction of a new health and sciences
building, connections to riverfront development and a greener, more pedestrian­
friendly campus. In this issue, you wall learn more about the Wilkes master plan.
This commitment also calls on Wilkes to bolster continuing education and gradu­
ate programs. We will invest in significant enhancements to Wilkes tradition of
caring deeply about its students, to build a one-of-a-kind mentoring culture for
our students, alumni and staff, which we believe will make Wilkes the top choice
for the next generation of students. Future Wilkes students will come, not because
its the local, affordable university, but because the university is their first choice.
We will continue investing in attracting and retaining the best faculty and staff by
offering competitive compensation and health care and retirement benefits.
So what’s the rub? Our budget projections to 2015, which are based on this
ambitious agenda, will require Wilkes to run itself more efficiently and raise more
private gifts. As an important stakeholder in Wilkes University, we hope you feel
the challenge and excitement as much as we do. If you do, I ask that you choose
to support Wilkes generously in this quest for greatness. I* I

BIOLOGY MAJOR AWARDED
RESEARCH FELLOWSHIP
Sophomore biology major Shuja Shafqat was recently awarded a
$3,500 summer undergraduate research fellowship from the American
Society of Plant Biologists (ASPB). This highly competitive fellowship
program provides opportunities for students to pursue meaningful
research in plant biology at their home institutions early in their
college careers. Shafqat was one of only three students nationwide
to be selected in the small school division. Since his freshman year,
Shafqat has been involved with faculty-mentored research in oak forest
regeneration. In collaboration with Dr. Will Terzaghi, associate professor
of biology, Shafqat uses DNA fingerprinting to determine the parents
of seedlings in native oak forests. Shafqat will soon begin the 10-week
fellowship to continue the oak seedling research with Dr. Terzaghi. He
will present his findings at the ASPB annual meeting in Boston, Mass.,

Wilkes Univesity created the Joint
Urban Study Center (JUSC) in June 2004
in an effort to help regional govern­
ments, including the City of WilkesBarre, stimulate economic growth and
create more vibrant communities.
JUSC is a partnership of businesses
and institutions of higher learning. The
centers stakeholders include small- to
mid-sized communities that need assis­
tance researching proven government
reforms. The center also provides the
local consultation and analysis needed
to implement the recommendations.
The JUSC beliex'es creating a com­
munity- wide housing strategy' for
Wilkes-Barre that promotes ownership
of xarious types of homes is integral
to xxanning back population. A recent
report from the center details recom­
mendations on creating housing
through preservation of historic homes
and creation of urban xnllages and sin­
gle-family and multi-family units.
Understanding how the past has
affected the region is important to
understanding the future. That xvas
the topic of another JUSC report—how
the past 50 years has changed the
region and xvhat xvould happen if the
region met critical economic indica­
tors, like job growth.
JUSC believes that significant
change—on all levels and in all sec­
tors—is needed noxv, according to
Teri Ooms, JUSC executive director.
“Past practices will no longer suffice in
today's world. The region must xvork
together to embrace change, must act
immediately to institute proven strate­
gics, and must be selfless and xvork
together,” Ooms said.

Wilkes Sponsors Forums
to Gauge Support for
Arts Center
With the adoption of Wilkes
University’s master plan and the revital­
ization of Wilkes-Barre well underway
there is reason to believe the future of
both the universit}' and city is bright.
Adding to that optimism is another
promising project under consider­
ation—the establishment of a non­
profit arts and cultural center in
downtown Wilkes-Barre. This project
recently received the green light from
a firm retained to gauge whether
enough support existed to make the
project successful.
Wilkes and the Cultural Council
of Luzerne County (CCLC) sponsored
two days of community forums to dis­
cuss the establishment of a venue for
smaller scale dance, theatre and musi­
cal performances that would accom­
modate anywhere from 50 people in

a cafe-style setting to as many as 300
with theatre-style seating.
The forum was led by Artspace, the
nations leading non-profit real estate
developer and consultant for the arts.
The Minneapolis-based organization
recently reported that regional sup­
port exists to back an art and cultural
center downtown, said Shelly Pearce,
chairperson of the CCLC and direc­
tor of the Conservatory at Wilkes
University.
“Wilkes and the Cultural Council
envision the development of a vibrant
and diverse arts center which would
become a meeting place for commu­
nity members of all ages and back­
grounds to appreciate the arts and all
artistic media,” said Pearce.
The center would also include gal­
lery space for the exhibition of largescale visual arts, as well as an intimate
space for student and amateur art­
work. Space for community meetings,
arts instruction of all kinds, a cafe,
a gift shop, and possibly for various
nonprofit organizations to lease would
also be included.
While new construction is also a
possibility, several locations, includ­
ing the Sterling Hotel Annex, the
Wachovia building on West Market
Street, the Irem Temple building on
Nonh Main Street, and the Studio
Cafe building on Public Square, are
being considered as possible locations
for the proposed arts center.
Admission Numbers Tell
Story of Growth
Full-time undergraduate enrollment
continues io be strong, with more than
2,700 freshmen applications (up over
40 percent in three years) and nearly
500 transfer applications received for
the fall 2005 semester. For the fifth

consecutive year, an expanding appli­
cant pool has led to a decline in the
percentage of students admitted.
Students from a larger region are
attracted to Wilkes. This year, one out
of four freshmen reside out-of-state,
up 7 percent from 2004. While enroll­
ments from northeastern Pennsylvania
remain strong, residents outside the
region are growing dramatically—from
84 two years ago to 128 this year. As a
result, the percentage and number of
students residing in campus-operated
housing is growing, too. Typically,
70 percent of freshmen reside on
campus (with commuting students
accounting for the remaining 30 per­
cent). This year 79 percent will live
on campus, where housing has been
increased to accommodate almost
1,000 students.
The sciences continue to lead the
enrollment growth, but interest in
other majors also remains strong.
Nursing applications have grown
from 76 in 2002 to 210 this year, while
enrollees have grown from 18 to 52
in the same period. Applications and
enrollments in biology, biochemistry,
and chemistry are soaring. Interest
in the pharmacy guaranteed seat
program has grown to such a level
that a significant wait list exists for
applicants. In other majors, applica­
tions over the last four years have
also risen: 38 percent in engineering.
47 percent in business, 48 percent in
communications, 79 percent in crimi­
nology, and 126 percent in English.
It is expected that the recent addi­
tions of special education certification
and new majors in entrepreneurship,
integrative media, and pharmaceutical
science will help ensure strong and
steady enrollments into the future. Ill

STUDENTS STEP INSIDE THE MAIN GATE
AT AUSCHWITZ.

WHILE VISITING BEKLJ.J, STUDENTS POSE ATA REFURBISHED COURTYARD THAT ONCE WAS USED AS HORSE STABLES.

Students Visit Sites
from Holocaust
BY ELIZABETH ALLES '03 M'05

TUDENTS PARTICIPATING IN

Wilkes University’s
Alternative Spring Break
JI program traveled over­
seas this year to Berlin,
Germany, and Oswiedm, Poland,
the site of the infamous Nazi con­
centration camp, Auschwitz. The
trip, planned by the global senice
organization, Amizade, was to include
service work on the concentration
camp and discussions with Holocaust
survivors. Due to inclement weather
and frozen ground conditions, the stu­
dents were unable to complete the ser­
vice work but instead were involved
in an educational and explorative trip
through Germany and Poland.

ralfc-

In Berlin, students toured the site of
the Berlin Wall and the Brandenburg
Gate, the most well-known landmark
in Berlin and the symbol of the reuni­
fication of the city. Students were able
to gain a sense of what Germany was
like before, during, and after World
War II and the importance of a united
city The group also toured the Allied
Museum, where they learned about
the role of the Allied Powers during
the war and separation of Germany.
Students viewed the Wannsee
Mansion, where Hitlers men made the
final decision to use the Holocaust.
During their tour, they learned that
Hitler was not present at the confer­
ence and that he did not sign off on

any of the documents issuing die use
of the Holocaust.
From Berlin, the students traveled
by train to Oswiccim, Poland to visit
Auschwitz and the Nazi death camp,
Birkenau. Here they saw the train
tracks that brought prisoners to the
camps and the buildings and cham­
bers where they were kept. Dressed
in warm clothes, the students were
horrified to think of prisoners in

these buildings for numerous weeks
and months with nothing to keep
them warm from the harsh winters
of Poland. Speaking with Halina
Birenbaum, an Auschwitz prisoner
for two years, helped the students
to understand the cruelties that
occurred during this horrible time in
history. Kevin Gaughenbaugh, coor­
dinator of campus interfaith, noted,
“This trip was eye-opening because
this event didn’t happen hundreds of
years ago; it is part of our very' recent
history. We can’t ever allow anything
like this to happen again.”
When the students weren’t louring
museums or landmarks, they walked
through the towns, spoke with die
local inhabitants, and learned about
the culture. They dined in German
and Polish restaurants and shopped
in the many stores throughout the
area. The abundance of people speak­
ing English amazed the students as
did their friendly attitude toward
Americans. Even though the weather
was cold and the sendee project was
cancelled, students gained a better
understanding of another part of the
globe as well as a very important part
of history. [I I

one of the pioneers of women’s athlet­
ics at Wilkes during the early to mid
1960s. Williams excelled in both basket­
ball and field hockey during her Lady
Colonels career.
On the basketball coun Williams
was a four-year letter winner. She
helped lead a young program that
began in 1961, just one year prior to

former on the field hockey team for the
Lady Colonels. She earned three varsity
letters in field hockey during her career
and served as one of the teams captains.

1993 Football Team
The 1993 football team ranks as one
of die best in Wilkes history. The
Colonels, under the guidance of
head coach Joe DeMelfi, fashioned
a perfect regular season record of
10-0 and claimed the Middle Atlantic
Conference championship. The squad
was also die first Wilkes football team
to earn a berth in the NCAA Division III
Championship.
The Colonels, who ended the y’ear
ranked eighth nationally accord­
ing to Don Hansen’s Football Gazette,
had plenty of stars to choose from
both offensively' and defensively. The
offense averaged 398.4 yards and 28.2
points per game, while the defense,
which posted three shutout victories,
surrendered a mere 207.6 yards and 7.3
points per contest.
Wilkes had 11 players earn first
team All-Freedom League honors.
Players named on offense were center
Brian Caloiaro, wide receiver Steve
Endres, guard Brian Lipinski, quar­
terback Boo Perry, and running back
Jason Smith. The defense was repre­
sented by ends Larry Trakes and Jake
Cole, tackle Jason Feese, linebacker
Mike McCree, and defensive back Ben
McKeown. Kicker Joel O’Donnell was
also selected to the first unit.
Four Colonels, Perry, Endres,
Lipinski, and Cole, were named
to the All-Eastern College Athletic

Conference team. Additionally,
Cole was a first team honoree and
Feese was a second team selection
to the Champion USA All-America
team. Feese was also named a first
team All-American by Don Hansen’s
Football Gazette, while Cole was
named to the second unit.

New Softball
Field
The 2005 softball season saw the pre­
miere of the Lady Colonels’ new softball stadium. Located at the Ralston
Field Complex behind the football
stadium, die field includes lighting for
night games, a new scoreboard and
press box, and many other amenities.
“The softball complex represents
the future of Wilkes athletics,” said
Addy Malatesta, Director of Athletics.
“We now have a state-of-the-art softball complex that will benefit Wilkes
athletics for years to come.”
In May, the 2005 Freedom
Conference Softball Championship
was held at the field. The LadyColonels boasted a 27-13 overall
record in 2005, with a 9-5 conference
record, which earned them the num­

I

LEAVES PLENTY OF ROOM FOR ADAPTING TO CHANGES ALONG THE WAY, ACCORDING TO SCOTT

BYERS, VICE PRESIDENT FOR FINANCE AND SUPPORT OPERATIONS.
"WE'RE TALKING ABOUT A CONCEPTUAL PLAN, A LIVING PLAN THAT WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE
AS WE WORK WITH THE CAMPUS. COMMUNITY, AND FRIENDS," HE SAID. "IT’S NOT A PLAN OF

ANSWERS. ITS A PLAN OF STARTING POINTS."

Working Together
Because Wilkes University is an urban
university; a major component of the
master plan involves helping to revital­
ize downtown Wilkes-Barre for the
benefit of students and residents alike.
“We don't operate in a vacuum/' noted
Byers. The plan acknowledges interde­
pendency and advocates for partner­
ships with the city of Wilkes-Barre,
Kings College, Luzerne County, and
private developers. The master plan, he
explained, strives to answer the ques­
tion. “What must Wilkes University
do to be really great at supporting
on-campus learners and to be a good
neighbor, citizen, and partner with
the community?"
Wilkes-Barre Mayor Tom
Leighton said city officials have
worked together with representatives of Wilkes University and

King's College to build a strong
relationship while planning for “a
true downtown atmosphere that will
enhance the lifestyle of the college
student.” For example, the university's
master plan puts some operations
downtown, which will encourage
students and faculty to shop in stores,
eat in restaurants, and patronize other
downtown resources.
“The Wilkes plan ties in well
with city and county projects,” said
Leighton, who discussed plans to
build a new theater complex and a
new labor and industry' building, to
develop the riverfront, and to increase
police levels for added safety.
A More Beautiful Campus
Overall, the master plan prepares
Wilkes University to serve up to 3,000
full-time undergraduate students—a
33 percent increase from the current

renovated, relocated, or sold, and new
buildings will accommodate growth.
The main campus quad will be com­
pleted, with view corridors providing
visual connection from the quad to
Riverfront Park. Residential quads will
form neighborhoods at each end of
campus, building on the concept of a
green campus in an urban setting. A
more pedestrian-friendly environment
will be created, with cars on the outside
and people on the inside.
“We will create a campus that builds
on the old framework, but it will be a
greener and more beautiful campus,”
said President Tim Gilmour.
Though most construction and ren­
ovation projects will take place from
2006 to 2018, the campus community'
and the community at large will sec
results from the master plan beginning

this summer. Three projects will kick
off the 20-year plan:
• The 40-year-old Dorothy Dickson
Dane Center for the Performing Ans
will receive an interior facelift and
infrastructure renovation, begin­
ning this summer and scheduled to
be completed in August 2006. The
Dane Center will be an anchor for
an arts district and for the south
end of campus, complementing the
Riverfront Park development.
• Completion is also expected in
August 2006 for major interior and
exterior renovations to Chesapeake
and Delaware residence halls.
Built in the 1880s as a block of four
houses with a common facade, the
halls are among the university's old­
est buildings. The project includes
transforming asphalt parking areas
into green space and gardens.

• The university hopes to begin
moving into the recently purchased
University Center on Main in
January (see sidebar, page 19).
Next on the agenda is a new health
and sciences building, with con­
struction expected to begin in 2005.
Departments for the sciences, engineer­
ing, pharmacy; and nursing, among
others, currently housed in Stark
Learning Center and Pearsall Hall, will
relocate to the new building. Modem,
high-tech labs and classrooms are
included in the plan, alleviating the
need for a costly renovation to Stark

strategies, master plan, and in creating a true

Wilkes team," said Miller, a member of the board
since 1999. "Now it's time to focus on executing."
According to Miller, carrying through on the
master plan is critical to "ensure a 'willed future'

for Wilkes." The physical aspects of the plan are
also vital for the future of the entire community,
he added.

Another important item on Miller's agenda is making mentoring a part

of the structure of a Wilkes education (see related story on page 20). "We

at Wilkes have always had a culture of mentoring," he said. "Now we

need to take that to a new level to help our students achieve their future."
Miller also said Wilkes must commit to developing the university

mission, vision, and values statement. He said the leadership team will
carefully refine it before rolling it out later this year. The new statement

will, Miller emphasized, "drive the execution of the university's master

and strategic plans."

The Wilkes Master Plan also
includes the following long-term
projects, which are scheduled to begin
after 2010:
• Demolishing the original wings of
Stark and renovating the freestand­
ing, northeast portion for growing
programs in integrative media,
communications, and business. The
renovated building will house class­
rooms as well as a television studio,
radio station, and the student public
relations firm and newspaper.
• Renovating the remaining front of
Stark Hall, along South River Street,
for student residence suites.
• Improving athletic fields by
partnering with the city and
expanding into Kirby Park, laying
artificial turf and expanding both
the Munson Field House and the
Marts Center.

concentrate on ’how we make Wilkes
a great University.’ ”
The revised strategic plan calls for
the university to build a great insti­
tutional brand, develop a world-class
support environment, and build insti­
tutional financial and alumni strength,
Gilmour emphasized. The following
steps are necessary' to accomplish
those goals:

• Design and implement a university­
wide mentoring system (see related
story on page 20).
• Develop lean, customer-focused
support operations.
• Implement the master plan.
• Work with the city and county to
create a supportive environment.
• Develop and implement a
strategy' to create a world-class

alumni organization.
• Initiate a five-year, S50-S60 million
capital campaign, following on the
success of the $31 million campaign
completed in 2001. (A feasibility
study for the campaign will probably
begin in January, Gilmour said.)
“The real key for us, looking forward,
is to execute the strategic plan," Gilmour
said, noting that a superb leadership
team stands ready to do just that “If we
are successful, we wall be a significandy

AA RCHIE BUNKER ONCE LAMENTED

K \\ that there had not been a
-—\ “good waitress since the
U
\A depression.” And, as
often as his bigoted tirades and malapropisms have been ridiculed, I cannot
help but muse that, at least with respect
to this observation, he was correct.
Where has all the service gone? In
restaurants, airports, retail establish­
ments, banks, and even places of wor­
ship, all one is met with these days is
rudeness, lack of consideration, and
a sense of being ignored. It is true
that we live in a time of advanced
education, nearly unlimited access
to Internet information, and tremen­
dously exaggerated perceptions of
self-worth. It is also true that many’
of the employees engaged to provide
service and otherwise interact with the
Public receive compensation dial could
certainly stand enhancement. And,

finally, businesses, finding themselves
in an intensely competitive, global
environment, have slashed budgets to
bare bones, cutting back on customer
interface.
However, 1 remain unconvinced that
customers and clients would not great­
ly appreciate a small dosage of quality’
service—and might even be willing to
pay for this luxury’. I can only faintly
remember the days when I might place
a rotary-dialed telephone call to a busi­
ness and be greeted by a human, rather
than electronic, voice, who might even
exchange a few pleasantries with me.
I would not be required to listen to a
litany’ of menu choices, none of which
proximately match the description of
my inquiry. I would not be placed on
hold for a seeming eternity, subject­
ing my sensitive ears to the re-cre­
ation of one of my favorite Creedence
Clearwater Revival tunes. I would not
be mandated to punch endless numer­
als, pound signs, and number signs,
entering my seventeen-digit account
number. (As an aside, why are account
numbers so long, when ten digits
would be adequate to cover every’
human currently inhabiting the plan­
et? ) I would not be required to recall
to memory an assortment of Personal
Identification Numbers, consisting of
a prescribed quantity of numerals and

a-? A -B^

marriear
U Am
n l-»
|^_ ."M
"cIVG a Dal)y.

letters; and, should my’ memory’ lapse
and I forget this particular PIN, I would
not be obliged to provide my mothers
maiden name, my’ pet’s name, or the
name of my favorite television show.
I can recall a time when, during my’
shopping ventures, I would be greeted
by’ an attentive salesperson who would
oft-times disappear into a back room,
emerging with the article I sought, in
the size and color of my preference. I
would not be charged for approach­
ing the window of a human teller in a
bank. I knew the names of the persons
who represented my insurance com­
pany and travel agency. 1 never needed
to fill my own gasoline tank, because a
friendly mechanic would perform this
service, ensuring that my oil and fluid
levels were appropriate and that my
windshield was clear, while locating the
cause of that annoying knocking sound
(the soft drink can under die seat). I
could ask questions of a human, and
not be admonished to visit the compa­
ny's website or send an e-mail.
If Archie were around today, no one
would be offended by his tirades and
malapropisms. They wouldn't even be
listening.

F res liman Move-In Freshman Move-In was held on August 22,2003, for the largest freshman class Wilkes has

seen in 10 years. Many alumni came out on this very hot day to help the students and their parents move in. We surveyed a
few of the parents to ask what it was like when they moved in for their freshman years. Many of the parents remembered
their black and white television sets
and their 45s. Today, students bring
huge stereo systems, computers, and
musical instruments. Every year, stu­
dents bring more and more, so mark
your calendars for Friday, August 20,
2004. John Serafin '90 said, “There is
nothing more enjoyable than coming
out and meeting these bright young
new students. I come every year and
look forward to it.” R.S.V.P

you need him.”
“Its been a pleasure,” says
Goldsworthy, “and sometimes a
challenge to please both the University
and the alumni population. But its an
experience I hold close to my heart, for
the people I’ve worked with have
become my family.”
Earlier that day Goldsworthy sat
with his Wilkes family at the annual
Association board meeting and election
to learn that Bill Tarbart 70 would be
the new' Association President.
“Over the past several months I’ve
come to know Bill,” commented
Goldsworthy, “and I’m thrilled that he
will succeed me as President of the

he will be able to carry on the pro-

and programs of the University, attract
new students, interest and include cur­
rent students, and retain and attract

Whifo many of the courses required

exist within ether disciplines, there are

are offered. allowing for possible con­
centrations in Vision and Sound.

and Business and Entrepreneurship.
There are no other schools in the
region that offer a degree program
exactly like Integrative Media. Models
for the program include Massachusetts
Instintre of Technology. Rochester
Institute of Technolog’.. Rensselaer
Polytechnic Institute, and New School
University. A major in Integrative
Media will allow the many students
who wash to pursue more than one
area of study to create a program all
their own by combining courses from
several disciplines.
at.-mepRaueuRSHip major
The major in entrepreneurship has
been a dream of the business division
for almost ten years. The program has
taken great strides since the idea began
in rz/f. with movement from a concen­
tration to a minor, and finally in fall
2ftM, to a major.
Dr. Jeffrey Alves, Director of the
Allan R Kirby Center for Free
Enterprise and Entrepreneurship at
Wilkes University and the Allan B
Kirby. Jr.. Distinguished Professor for

Free Enterprise and Entrepreneurship,
and other members of the business fac­
ulty created this curriculum. According
to Alves, "Entrepreneurship is like the
liberal arts of business. ’ It integrates
everything, allowing students to use all
skills at once, put them into practice,
then learn how to improve. Their
motto: Leant. Do. Reflect.
While the new entrepreneurship
major will prepare students to deal
with all aspects of business develop­
ment. Alves does not expect all stu­
dents who graduate with the major to
open their own businesses. He pointed
out that "entrepreneurship is an inte­
grative discipline" and that students
will be able to make contributions to
businesses, non-profits and govern­
ment agencies already in place. This
will be possible because of the broad
perspective these students will have.
Five new courses will be offered, in
addition to four already in place to
accommodate students with an entre­
preneurship minor. The new courses
will be spread across the four-year pro­
gram, culminating in an entrepreneur­
ial internship. First, however, is ENT
203, Opportunity Identification—
Creativity and Innovation, in which stu­
dents will act, write, paint and
participate in other creative activities.
According to Alves, "the idea is not to
make them artists, but to get them to
think a little bit differently.” The semes­
ters that follow include courses in lead­
ership, marketing, and finance.

This progression is also unique to the
area, with Babson College serving as the
primary model.
M.A. CREATIVE WRITING

Ur. Bonnie Bedford, former Uean of the
College of Arts, Sciences and
Professional Studies and Associate
Professor of English, suggested a lowresidency program for a Master of Arts in

Collaboration key to success
of Urban Studies Center
BY PATRICIA BOYLE HEAMAN '61

RESIDENT JOSEPH E. (TIM)

I bring you best wishes for the New Year.

■

FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS WE HAVE WORKED TO BUILD A STATISTICAL PROFILE THAT MEASURES

the University’s performance in a number of key areas such as student recruitment
and retention, stakeholder satisfaction, and financial strength. I am pleased to
report that overall results meet or exceed nearly all performance targets established.
Highlights include enrollment and retention at their highest levels in at least fifteen
years, excellent progress on die financial strength targets, and solid customer satis­
faction among all University stakeholders.
This excellent performance has had a positive effect on campus morale. Wilkes fami­
ly members with whom 1 talk tell me that there is a new sense of excitement and opti­
mism on campus. People believe that they can make a difference, that their ideas for
new programs and initiatives will be seriously considered, and that Wilkes University is
on a padr to greater excellence and prominence in the Mid-Atlantic Region.
Last October we were especially proud to have Governor Edward G. Rendell join
us to unveil plans for thejay S. Sidhu School of Business and Leadership, scheduled
to welcome its first students in 2004. The School was established drrough a gift from
Jay Sidhu, a Wilkes trustee, a 1987 graduate of the MBA program, and the chairman
and CEO of Sovereign Bank. Watch future issues of the Universe for news of the
School’s unique curriculum that will focus on leadership, entrepreneurship, emo­
tional intelligence, and ethics, which we believe will make the Sidhu School a
national model for best practices in business education for the twenty-first century.
To keep you in touch with late-breaking news at Wilkes, the Marketing
Communications Office has introduced FrontPage, a monthly newsletter that will
provide a snapshot of all we have to be proud of —our campus, our academic and
co-curricular programs, and most of all our students, faculty, alumni, and staff. We
look forward to your responses to FmntPagc, which you can download by going to
wmv.wilkes.alu/resources/fmnt_pagc.pdf.
As we look forward to even greater progress and success for Wilkes in 2004, we
wish you all a happy and productive year. Ill

Sincerely,
Joseph E. (Tim) Gilmour
President

J

Gilmour recently announced
|
an initiative through which
■ Wilkes and area colleges will collabo­
rate with community leaders and city
officials to establish an Urban Studies
Center housed at Wilkes University. The
Centers mission is “to provide pragmatic
help to communities in the region to
revitalize themselves, and become sus­
tainable urban communities.” Not sur­
prisingly, Wilkes-Barre, a city that has
suffered the blighting effects of residen­
tial and commercial flight in recent years,
will become the inaugural case study of
the Center. Within three years, the
Center is expected to be in a position to
market its expertise to other small- and
medium-sized cities in the region.
The catalyst for the development of
the Center was a challenge grant of
$300,000 given by alumnus and trustee
William P Montague ’68 and his wife
Susan. Bill and Susan are native WilkesBarreans. They lived in the city until
1977, and their two children were bom
here. They return frequently to visit fam­
ily, including Bill’s eighty-nine-year-old
mother, who resides in the Heights sec­
tion of the city. Wilkes accepted the
Montagues’ challenge, and President
Gilmour enlisted the support of the four
other institutions of higher education in
the area—King’s College, College
Misericordia, Luzerne County
Community College, and Penn
State/Wilkes-Barre—which formed a
Council of Presidents in 1985 to collabo­
rate on projects through which the tai-

“Suite Wilkes University sits in the
heart o/Wilkes-Barre, and

attract students and remain viable
is at least partly related to its envi­
ronment, Mi Sue and I thought
that this would lx: a gt vat way to

ents and resources of their institutions
could serve community needs.
President Gilmour and Dawn AtwaterHaight, Vice-President of Advancement,
obtained pledges of support in excess of
one million dollars from local business­
es, foundations, community leaders,
and civic organizations to finance the
Centers first five years, after which it is
expected to become self-sustaining.
The key to the success of the Center
will be the collaboration among leaders
in education, business, and government
to realize a vision of a renewed WilkesBarre. The Center, according to President
Gilmour, can “elevate the city’s vision of
what it can be” by providing research,
analysis, and consultation to "create an
exciting and livable environment, a place
where people want to visit and live.”
Participating institutions will draw
on their particular strengths to offer
faculty expertise and technical assis­
tance, and students will have opportu­

nities to work with the Center through
course projects, internships, and serv­
ice learning programs. Gilmour feels
that students will “gain a sense of
empowerment and confidence when
they feel that they can have an effect
and make a contribution to the envi­
ronment in which they live and leant.”
In time, this partnership may lead to
the development of cross-institutional
interdisciplinary academic programs in
Urban Studies and related areas.
The Greater Wilkes-Barre Chamber of
Business and Industry and the Diamond
City Partnership will be at the center of
planning. Stephen Barrouk, president of
the Chamber, says the Center “will give
us a chance to attack some of the sys­
temic problems in local government that
have supported the status quo... It could
provide an opportunity for local leaders
to exchange information, which just
might perhaps lead to trust and more
cooperation.” I! I

��OPPOSITE PAGE: WILKES STUDENTS WALK PAST THE JOHN WILKES STATUE ON THEIR WAY TO AND FROM CLASS. ABOVE LEFT: THE NEW
MONARCH COURT IS A FOCAL POINT OF THE KING'S CAMPUS. ABOVE RIGHT: KIRBY HALL IS ONE EXAMPLE OF HISTORIC ARCHITECTURE
RESTORED IN A WILKES CLASSROOM BUILDING.

One expects a college town
to reflect the busy hum of campus
life and to provide goods and services that
attract members of the campus community to its
commercial center. One might also expect a college town
to offer housing, restaurants, and entertainment and leisure
opportunities that make the city a lively place to live, work, shop, and visit.

Over the last few decades, however,
Wilkes-Barre has been steadily losing
ground in its struggle to meet these
expectations and to project an image
of a city where people would want to
live and work. Yet in contrast to the
deteriorating appearance and
depressed atmosphere of the down­
town, the two city campuses look
bright, busy, welcoming, and prosper­
ous, more and more like thriving, selfsufficient enclaves from which few feel
the inclination or the need to venture
forth into the surrounding city. But
this disconnect between campus and
20

community has not always been the
case. In the past, these campuses have
shared much more common ground
and common interest with the city and
with its residents and businesses than
they do today.
The recendy announced Urban
Studies Center was established to “pro­
vide essential research, analysis and con­
sultation to small and mid-size cities
aiming for full participation in the new
economy of the 21st century.” By mak­
ing the revitalization of Wilkes-Barre its
initial project, the Center will provide a
focus and filter through which the many

orating environment affects rhe quality
of residential, commercial, and colle­
giate life in Wilkes-Barre. The desolate
look of the downtown as businesses
abandoned it and the sense of civic fail­
ure have led to an increase in crime and
the fear it inevitably instills in residents
and businesses. And this fear has infect­
ed neighborhoods surrounding central
city, including those around Wilkes and
Kings. A long-time South Franklin
Street resident recalls, “I’ve seen the
area change from a gentle neighbor­
hood where you raised your children
and knew your neighbors and social­
ized with them, to a place where fear
keeps residents off streets that have
been taken over by out-of-town drug­
runners." The invasion of city neigh­
borhoods by crime associated with drug
trafficking has created an atmosphere
that has all but eliminated the fluid
movement of students between city and
campus that existed years ago. Instead
of walking to central city, students

constituencies eager to do their share to
help in the renewal can participate in
integrated planning. The involvement of
the educational institutions as well as
governmental, commercial, and busi­
ness interests can help to shape a future
of Wilkes-Barre that takes into account
the crucial role all five educational insti­
tutions have played and can continue to
play in maintaining a thriving urban
environment
A CITY IN DISTRESS

The urgency of this initiative can hardly
be underestimated. The growing inef­
fectiveness of city government and law
enforcement in recent years; the crum­
bling infrastructure of a city where
street lights collapse and parking
garages are deemed structurally unsafe;
the visibly decaying Sterling Hotel,
once a proud focal point of the
cityscape; and repeated evidence of
poor planning, such as the abortive
downtown movie theater project, all
indicate the extent to which the deteri-

remain on well lit campuses where a
visible security presence makes them
feel safe, or they travel by car to outly­
ing malls, hubs, and theater complexes
to shop, socialize, and find recreational
opportunities. Indeed, there is little in
the way of such attractions left for them
in the downtown.
The best hope of all who have rallied
to support the Urban Studies Center is
that it will be able to channel the desire
for the city’s recovery, apparent on
many fronts, into sustained collabora­
tive action. The participation of educa­
tional institutions in this partnership is
a promising sign that the city and cam­
puses can revive a relationship that was
mutually beneficial in the past
President Gilmour believes that suc­
cessful educational institutions must
have the “ability to engage their
regions1 needs because both will be the
better for it.” The alternative, he says,
is educational institutions that become
“bastions,” defining and pursuing their

missions with only their own interests
in mind, without any connection to the
communities in which they exist.
Clearly, such an alternative is at odds
with the Wilkes tradition and its his­
torical engagement in die needs of the
city and the region.
A TRADITION OF COOPERATION

In the days of Bucknell University
Junior College and the early day’s of
Wilkes College, the relationship
between the campus and the city’ was a
visible source of pride to both. As the
institution grew through the 40s, 50s,
and 60s, the largely residential area
between South River and South
Franklin Streets from West Market to
South Streets was transformed as many
of the stately old homes and mansions,
no longer suitable as modem
dwellings, became classroom build­
ings, residence halls, and faculty’ and
administrative offices. Kirby Hall
became the library, and a carriage

"If the Center can get everybody in the room working
toward the same goal, it will be great; a dream cometrue
for the city... I'm convinced it's going to happen."

house behind Chase Hall became a stu­

from the college's acquisition of these
old homes. Ronald L Andrews, who
compiled An Inventon o f Historic
Landmarks in the Campus of Willies
College in 1975. pointed out that “By­
converting many of the structures for
use... the college is preserving a signif­
icant portion of Wilkes-Barrels cultural
heritage.” A walk along South River
Street from West Market to South Ross
Street today offers not only a sampling
of diverse architectural styles that have

cialty shops, and movie theaters. The
fluid boundaries reinforced die sense
that city and campus had a stake in die
health of a common civic, economic,
and cultural life. The connection was
manifest in many joint college and com­
munity projects. The early alliance
between the Kiwanis Club and the
Wilkes theater program offered local res­
idents the opportunity to experience live
theater in an annual musical presented at
die Irem Temple at the same time that it
fostered student learning, appreciation of
the arts, and community spirit.

construct the College’s first modem
classroom building and attract a facul­
ty that would provide state-of-the-art
science and engineering education.
The new programs Wilkes was able to
develop in the facilities of Stark
Learning Center resulted in the reloca­
tion of modern industry to the area at

by initiating the Wilkes-Hahnemann
partnership, through which hundreds
of area students earned medical
degrees and brought their skills back
to serve the people of Northeastern
Pennsylvania.
DISASTER AND RECOVERY

When the flood waters of rhe
Susquehanna inundated Wilkes-Barre
in 1972, as a result of Hurricane Agnes,
some 25,000 homes were nearly
destroyed, and 2,278 businesses were
damaged by the flood. The down­
town, along with the city campuses

in the suburbs, others remained and
renovated their homes. Eventually the
downtown assumed a new look under
bright, unifying canopies that provid­
ed protection from the weather and
security on well-lighted streets. New
businesses opened, and old favorites
returned. The beautifully renovated
E M. Kirby Center promised to serve as
a cultural and entertainment magnet
to attract residents from surrounding
towns. The Fanners Market on Public
Square became a place where shop­
pers and downtown workers could
lunch on the area's many ethnic foods

One wonders how much a central
planning resource, such as the Urban
Studies Center, might have consoli­
dated efforts in the rebudding of
Wilkes-Barre during the 70s. Would
long-range, coordinated planning
then have taken into account the
importance of the college communi­
ties in the area and considered how to
attract large numbers of students, fac­
ulty, and other employees into the
downtown? Would such planning
have anticipated the city's need to
attract a youthful, as well as to pro­
vide for an aging, population?

CAMPUS. ABOVE: A DOWNTOWN WORTH SAVING.

CAMPUS REBUILDING

As the city struggled with its recovery,
Wilkes and King’s consolidated their
campuses through long-range planning
and building programs that have
resulted in two thriving and attractive
areas in the midst of a failing down­
town. The new look of both campuses
was recendy described by a long-time
city resident as “exquisite... like walk­
ing into another world.” At Wilkes, the
Campus Plan developed and executed
over the last fifteen years was capped
this fall with the placement of the
kiosk featuring a campus map at the
rear of the new' Henry Student Center.
With the renovation of Stark Learning
Center, the construction of Breiseth
Hall, the demolition of Church Hall,

and the placement of the John Wilkes
statue in front of the Farley Library, the
central campus now encloses the lovely
Fenner Quadrangle. This attractive and
unifying greenway has become a set­
ting for which members of the campus
community have abandoned the city's
River Common, a city' park where
years of neglect have left muddy and
unwalkable paths along a green strip
where weeds grow wherever they can
gain a foothold and fallen tree limbs lie
where they have fallen.
With the closing of North Franklin
Street to traffic between Union and
Jackson Streets, King’s has consolidated
its growth into a compact, modem
urban campus where raised walkways
and restful green spaces unify its central
academic and residential structures.
Perhaps a bit unsettling is the fact
that the self-enclosed design of both
central campuses recalls the walled
European universities of the Middle
Ages and Renaissance, where huge
doors and solid gates were closed and
locked nighdy to emphasize the retreat

of the academic communities into safe
havens, apart from the distractions and
dangers of the surrounding areas. The
different directions in which the city
and the educational institutions have
been moving in recent years—of
decline on the one hand and progress
and growth on the other—suggest the
real possibility’ that the campuses could
assume the self-sufficiency of “bastions”
while the city crumbles around them.
HOPEFUL SIGNS

Recendy, several bright spots have
appeared to indicate the resolve of vari­
ous constituencies to change the city’s
direction. Many residents have refused
to relinquish their city to the physical
decay in which fear and crime thrive.
South Franklin Street provides a shining
example of the kind of collaboration
that the Urban Studies Center could
help to extend to the downtown and its
neighborhoods. Long-time residents,
despite threats posed by the invasion of
drug-related crime and slum landlords,
kept faith in their neighborhood by

"There is much that is distinctive and worth saving in the old
buildings of the city, so a central clearinghouse for planning
will prevent the kind of demolition and reconstruction that
will make Wilkes-Barre look like any other city."
SUSAN W. SHOVAL, UNIVERSITY TRUSTEE AND MEMBER OF THE URBAN STUDIES CENTER ADVISORY BOARD

"The Urban Studies Center... could provide for the possibili­
ty of a deeper understanding of the issues facing a city that
is in the process of revitalization... The educational institu­
tions can bring to such a center their own intellectual capital
in the form of faculty and professional staff insights on any
given issue. Our students can both learn from and con­
tribute to such a center by interacting with outside experts,
city officials and others who have the common goal of
seeing Wilkes-Barre revitalized."
THOMAS J. O'HARA, CSC, PRESIDENT, KING'S COLLEGE

resisting residential flight. New home­
owners and landlords renovated single
homes and apartment buildings to
highlight their historic and architectur­
al features. The University acquired the
properties that became Fortinsky and
Schiowitz Halls, buildings that might,
if left in private hands, have con­
tributed to the decay of the neighbor­
hood. The Mans Center replaced the
old gym, and Passan Hall was renovat­
ed to become a central administrative
building. CityVest, through its South
Franklin Street Restoration Project, has
joined the effort to return the street to
its former beauty and dignity, as a
model of the kind of turnaround
through which the University’ and pri­
vate and community interests have
worked together with stunning results
to rebuild a neighborhood.
There are even a few signs that
renewal is extending to South Main
Street and Public Square. Although an
empty call center stands as an emblem
of tire city’s recent failures in attracting
jobs that would bring people down­
town and stimulate entrepreneurship,
long-time businesses have maintained
their footholds in the downtown.

Despite the many empty storefronts
that surround them, Boscov’s,
Bartikowskys, the Gallery of Sound,
the Hollywood, and Marquis Art and
Frame have remained anchors of retail
trade on South Main StreeL A recent
opening at the new Marquis An
Gallery attracted more than a hundred
people. Hottie’s, Lowe’s, and Katana
restaraunts continue to draw people in
search of consistently good food. Cafe
Rouge, a new coffeehouse in Midtown
Village that frequently features poetry
readings, may lure students off cam­
pus, and a recently opened Subway on
South Main Street reports that business
is good. The Chamber of Business and
Industry’s Innovation Center, a
resource to provide help and encour­
agement to entrepreneurship that
could fill empty retail spaces, is slated
to open on South Main Street in 2004.
The November election has raised
hopes that the strained relationships
among local government, business
interests, residents, and the educational
communities, can be rebuilt. In
November, at a well-attended public
meeting in the Kirby Center, people
worked in groups to brainstorm and

compile lists of what they liked and
disliked about the downtown. At a fol­
low-up meeting in the Henry Student
Center on the Wilkes campus, archi­
tects and engineers helped those in
attendance to visualize some of the
possibilities that grew from the brain­
storming session. In December, more
elaborate conceptual maps of a new
downtown were presented at another
public meeting. There is a new excite­
ment about die city’s future, and many
are eager to get involved in the work
ahead. The Urban Studies Center will
thus begin its work at a critical
moment in the history of Wilkes-Barre.
It offers an opportunity- through which
all who are interested in the revitaliza­
tion of the city can channel their hopes
and efforts to build a new downtown
where people of all ages will walk to
the beat of the heart of a city- dirobbing
with a new vitality’. “If you build it. they
will come.” IH

J nificant percentage of you responded to our survey To those who replied
LA I thank you.
Fully 90% of you view your student experiences as “very positive" or “positive ”
Yet, when asked to rate your experiences as alumni, 48% reported the experience as
■ neutral." Despite record giving last year of S3.75 million, only 16% of you participat­
ed with an Annual Fund gift. Clearly, we have some work to do to improve our rela­
tionship with you.
The most common interaction with alumni is this publication — 77% reported
that primary' contact is through the Universe. The second most frequent interaction
is the Annual Fund Phonathon.
With respect to the Universe, you told us that you would like more information
about classmates and friends, alumni events near your homes, academic programs,
and changes in facilities at Wilkes University. Of less interest are trustee updates,
major gift announcements, and athletic successes. Based on this information, we
plan to form an alumni editorial board to advise us as we publish an even better
WiDres Universe.
You also request more alumni chapter activities and educational programs, and a
significant percentage of you call for upgrades to our e-mail correspondence with you.
The lessons learned from our polling data, combined with giving trends, alumni
participation in Homecoming, and my travel to alumni events will result in signifi­
cant changes.
Our new vice president for development. Marty Williams, will lead new pro­
grams such as the Wilkes University Mentoring Program. A Planned Giving pro­
gram will launch next year and the Wilkes Club will be greatly strengthened with
new membership benefits.
In developing these programs, we are keenly aware that our challenge is to
make your alumni years compelling, rich, and stimulating. Wilkes will be a
resource and a gratifying passion for alumni for a lifetime. This is our charge, and

we intend to succeed.

Alumni Mentoring Program
Gets Ready to Launch
Expanding on past practices, die new
Wilkes University Mentoring Program
will match alumni and students to help
participants make good career decisions
and develop networking opportunities.
Freshmen and sophomores will be
able to tum to mentors for guidance
when facing career-path decisions.
Mentors can guide juniors and seniors
through networking strategies and pin­
pointing potential job opportunities as
their college time wraps up and they
prepare to venture into the work force.
According to Colleen Gries
Gallagher ’81, member of die Alumni
Association Board of Directors, the pro­
gram will facilitate the exchange of
information, the development of pro­
fessional contacts, and the sharing of
personal experiences and interests of
its participants. Future plans for the
program include: networking events,
luncheon forums and alumni panel
discussions.
The pilot program will launch in
spring 2005 as part of the Personal and
Professional Development Program in
thejay S. Sidhu School of Business and
Leadership. University-wide imple­
mentation is slated for fall 2005.

The Alumni Survey Says...
■As part of an image and branding
study conducted by Carnegie
Communications, Wilkes University
and its Alumni Association asked alums
to share their opinions and suggestions
in February 2004. From the more than
25,000 alumni on record, 5,000 were
randomly invited to participate in the
survey. The results from the 566 respon­
dents were included in Carnegie’s report
to the University, presented in August.

Some highlights:
• 77% of die participants responded
that they read Universe on a regular
basis.
• 94% of die respondents chose “I am
thankful for the experience I had at
Wilkes” as the reason for support­
ing the University financially.
• 70% indicated they “definitely or
probably would” recommend
Wilkes to prospective students.
Some suggestions for die Alumni
Association:
• Offer more online continued learn­
ing and professional development
programs.
• Establish alumni chapters.
• Hold more family oriented
gatherings.
• Formalize a mentoring program.

BUJC Alumnae Reunite
In August, the BUJC ladies met for their
annual luncheon in the Henry Student
Center Ballroom. This year's luncheon
was held in honor of Dr. Norma
Sangiuliano Tyburski, who passed
away on September 22,2003.
Approximately twenty-five women
gathered to reminisce about, and
honor, our beloved “Sang}'.”
Dr. Paul Adams 77, vice president
for student affairs, also updated the
women on the new and exciting
changes taking place at the university.

THE STRATEGIC PLAN CALLS FOR A NEARLY 10% INCREASE IN THE RETENTION RATE.

Frosh fuel growth spurt
BY KALEN CHURCHER '97

PrcrKbv ’. cke-s &amp; =~cr

rboracepry

Freshman enrollment highest in 16-years as Wilkes
reaches its 2010 goal.
VEN BEFORE THEY RECEIVED their

schedules, this years freshmen
had already made their mark
ImIH on Wilkes University. At 568,
freshman enrollment is the highest the
university has seen in 16 years.
“This year, for the first time in at least
anyone's mind around here, we closed
applications in early May," said Michael
Frantz, vice president for enrollment
services.
Typically, 10 to 20 percent of fresh­
man enrollment is gathered between
May 1 and the start of classes, Frantz
explained. But this year, procrastina­
tors lost big when Wilkes officially
capped enrollment. Even transfer stu­
dent applications were closed the first
week in June.

With applications up 12 percent
since last year, and 58 percent since
2000, there was no shortage of quality
candidates, and quality is the key word.
Consider this: the average Wilkes
applicant scored 1065 on the Scholastic
Aptitude Test. That's nearly 40 points
higher than the national average.
Engineering, health sciences, busi­
ness, and nursing programs have wit­
nessed some of the largest enrollment
spikes, with increases of 44,33,30, and
22 percent, respectively.
Dr. Mary'Ann Merrigan, director of
the university's department of nursing,
attributes the programs success to a
number of factors. For example, a
national nursing shortage virtually
guarantees each graduate a job, making

the field very attractive. However, the
individualized attention the university
affords its students makes Wilkes very
appealing to high school juniors and

seniors.
Even widi rising numbers that have
forced the department to convert office
space to laboratories, personalized atten­
tion and encouragement remain staples
for Merrigan and her faculty' From nurs­
ing camps drat offer hands-on experi­
ences for high school juniors, to
accelerated programs dial allow nurses
to achieve dteir baccalaureate or masters

degrees, Merrigan stresses die impor­
tance of becoming invested in all stu­
dents— potential, current, and former.
“1 think we’ve found that students
don’t really know what nursing is

about," Merrigan explained. “They’re
at these camps and ... they see the var­
ied opportunities that nurses have.
“I believe the faculty and I are very
responsive to these students. 1 tty to
send a personal note to all the [high
school] students."
Despite enrollment increases, Sara
Grab, a junior pre-pharmacy major,
believes university professors strive to
meet everyone’s needs.
“They may have more classes to
instruct, but they still find the time to
help students with any problems or
concerns. Even in large classes, my
instructors know my name, which is
something that I find to be important
in a class."
Frantz stresses that once students
choose to attend Wilkes, the universi­
ty’s recruitment process does not stop.
Instead, it transforms itself into a
retention program that can often be
as intricate as the recruitment

process. Frantz credits Freshman
Foundation courses with helping stu­
dents adapt to college living and
learning. An aggressive maintenance
program continues to upgrade com­
puter laboratories and other universi­
ty equipment, and expand university
housing.
Sturdevant Hall was partially con­
verted into student housing a few years
ago. This year, residential space was
added on River and Ross streets,
including two new floors in Slocum
Hall. The university has also estab­
lished housing agreements with two
apartment facilities that sometimes
place students and Wilkes-Barre’s sen­
ior citizen population as immediate
neighbors — a situation Frantz says
has been enlightening for both age
groups and has fostered a great sense of
community.
As the university moves forward in
its strategic plan, upping retention

rates remains a priority. In 1999, the
freshman-sophomore retention rate
was 73 percent. This year, administra­
tors have set a lofty goal of more than
80 percent, one Frantz is confident can
be achieved.
“If retention is going up, I think it’s
fair to say the students are satisfied
with the services."
Fulfilling promises made during
recruitment is critical to maintaining a
satisfied student body. Among those
promises is the assurance that qualified
professionals will instruct courses. Both
Merrigan and Frantz tout the expertise
of Wilkes’ full-time faculty and praise
adjunct professors who have been rolled
into the university system to ensure that
class sizes remain small despite the
increased student population.
“In 2001, we set a goal to have an
undergraduate enrollment of 2,200
I full-time students] by the end of
2010," Frantz said, adding that the goal
has already been achieved. “Right now,
we’re thrilled to death. Now the discus­
sion is, do we want to level off or do we
want to continue to grow."
As those discussions persist, Wilkes
continues to ensure that students will
receive the individualized attention
and support necessary to successfully
complete their educations. L’l

“They may have more classes to instruct but they still
find the time to help students with any problems or
concerns. Even in large classes, my instructors know
my name, which is something that I find to be
important in a class/'

• The Middle Atlantic Corporation

a female student-athlete from

the Year at the annual
Sportsmanship Awards Luncheon.
• 37 student-athletes named
Academic All-American by
national coaching associations,
and six College Sports
Information Directors of America,
(CoSIDA) Academic AllAmericans.
• 181 Wilkes student-athletes
named to their various MAC All­
Academic teams.

Community sendee also continues
to grow among coaches and student­
athletes.
“Our approach is that while we want
to be very competitive on our fields
and courts, our student-athletes are
also very balanced in their educational
experiences. We believe that’s been a
key to our success in our graduation
rate and student satisfaction." says
Addy Malatesta, director of athletics
and a former head field hockey coach.
“Our student-athletes graduate feeling
that they were not only successful in
the win-loss column, but that they also

contributed to the school and the com­
munity. Those are important values to
us — and we don’t feel it’s made us any

less competitive. Our message is that
our student-athletes learn that they can
have it all, and do it all.”
That message helped attract athletes
like three-time first-team All-Freedom
Conference men's tennis player
Madhan Srinivasan, who found that its
not just a recruiting line.
“It's real tough as an athlete who’s a
science major with labs and work.
They [labs) occur in the afternoon. But
most of the professors are understand­
ing and allow you to sometimes make
things up on Saturdays,” says the sen­
ior biology major and Wyoming
Seminar)’ graduate, who has also
served as Student Government
Association treasurer. “They [some
professors] come in on their free time
to help you to make it up. One of the
biggest things of coming to a small
school is the one-to-one aspect [with
faculty and staff| that you can’t get at
bigger schools.”
Junior Jan Nunemacher earned firstteam all-conference honors last year in
softball as a utility’ player who played
several positions — not surprising
given the number of things she juggles
off the field. Also a MAC All-Academic

major with a minor in English, the
Wyoming Valley West graduate has

served as vice president of the Student

and worked both on-campus and offcampus jobs.
“I actually like the fact that I can play
a college sport—and still have a life. 1
still go to school, can play softball, and
still go out with my friends. Some of my
[high school! friends play on the
Division II level, but I’m happy where I
am. I have the opportunity to get in
other things here," says Nunemacher,
who had enrolled at a Division 11 school,
but changed her mind after meeting
Wilkes Head Coach Frank Matthews.
She reports that Matthews encourages
players to miss practice for class con­
flicts, since he knows his players are
ultimately here for the education.
And the faculty are ultimately here for
student-athletes like senior Josh Turel —
a pharmacy major from Pittston Area
who was a second-team all-conference
baseball catcher last spring.
“1 think it’s nice that I’m in a smaller
class in the pharmacy program —
something like 65 students. Each pro­
fessor pretty much knows you by
name, and keeps track of you, and tells
coach how you’re doing. You're not just
a number — and that’s not just a
cliche," says Turel, who also served on
the SAAC and is doing an internship at

nearby Konicki Pharmacy.
That hasn't changed much since Hall
of Famcr Brooke Yeager was a standout
wrestler before graduating in 1965.
Yeager placed second in the 123-pound
weight class at the small college nation­
als his senior year, earning a berth in
the NCAA Division 1 Championships.
He learned a valuable lesson off the
mats from that experience when Dr.
Charles Reif made him complete a
paper before he left for the match.
While Yeager wasn't happy about hav­
ing to complete the assignment at the
time, he claims it ended up being "the
best advice” he could have gotten,
since he was too tired upon his return.
Now on the biolog)' faculty at
Luzerne County Community College,
he has advice for todays Wilkes stu­
dent-athletes.
"I think the liberal arts schools —
like those in Division lit •— give you
the chance to experience some differ­
ent views on the world. They need to
take advantage of those opportunities."
says Yeager, who was also an assistant
coach on Wilkes' national champi­
onship wrestling team and is a colle­
giate wrestling official. “I didn't like all
those [liberal arts] courses I had to
take, but some of those courses were
probably much more meaningful than
others. I had a great experience at
Wilkes."
And al Wilkes, athletics is all about
the educational experience.^I

they follow in the footsteps of the Baby Boomers,

the post-World War II generation of 75 million, and the smaller Generation X of 1962-19S2.

Generation

BY SAM ALCORN

-jPQQpOQPQw&lt;

The GJ. Generation. The Silent Generation. Baby Boomers.
Generation X. Every generation is branded. Demographers
have named the latest brood, too. They're called the Baby
Boom Echo, Generation Y, Generation Next, and, the name
that seems most prevalent, the Millennials.

The first Millennial wave is now on
Americas college campuses and the
oldest of them are just starting to enter
the work force. Understanding them is
important because they could change
the face of higher education and die
workplace.
Who are they? One snapshot:
“As a group, die Millennials are
unlike any odier youths in living mem­
ory,” say Neil Howe and William
Strauss, audiors of Millennials Go to
College. “They are more numerous,
more affluent, better educated, and
more ethnically diverse.'1
Howe and Strauss say they share
some key traits:
• Sheltered — the product of sweep­
ing youdi protection
• Confident — trusting and opti-

mistic
• Team oriented — strong team
instinct and tight peer bonds
• Conventional — pride in behavior
and comfortable xsdtli parents' values
• Pressured — pushed to study hard
and excel
• Achieving — possibly the besteducated generation in American
history’
They are used to hovering “helicop­
ter” parents keeping tabs. They, with
their parents, “co-purchase" their
college educations. They care what
parents think, and their parents want
to be engaged in their lives — academ­
ics included.
Raised as “special'' by doling par­
ents, this generation has been pro­
grammed to think it is special.

Remcmber “Baby on Board" signs?
They grew up more protected than any
other generation. Their time, work,
and play was structured, planned, and
supervised. Slackers they aren’t.
They're busy.
Present at the commercial dawn of
the Internet, they are wired and
inspired by instant information access
and the global reach of instant anywhere/anytime/anyhow communica­
tion. They eat technolog}:
To the Millennials, the Kenned)’
assassinations, Watergate, and Vietnam
are textbook history. They grew up on
a diet of mibs, but their collective psy­
che has been colored bv the

and Iraq.

�bigger than the Boomer generation.
Record numbers want college educa­
tions and. among those, more college­

Another characteristic: Todays stu­

trend of record volunteerism. Wilkes’
students volunteered 29,000 hours of
community sendee last year. And, says
the Higher Education Research
Institute (HERI), drinking, smoking,

talk back if you
put one on them. And I
like that about them. They
are much feistier than the students
of 10 years ago.”
What may be controversial for their
parents, they can take for granted. As
an example, Crahall notes a class on
controlling spin in public relations and
news in which 11 students joined an
ongoing focus group for the
Democratic National Convention.
“When asked, ‘Should same-sex mar­
riage be a topic or legitimate issue in
the campaign,' they said, ‘Absolutely
not’ They were not of all the same
political view, but they said, ‘That’s their
business and [they] would vote against
anyone who made that a presidential
campaign issue.' They were adamant
about it. They don’t see things as con­
troversial as their parents do,” says
Crahall. “They say, ‘We’re past that’”
After a long period of political apa­
thy by American youth, the Millennials
are becoming politically active. HERI
found that more than a third of last
year’s freshmen felt that keeping up-to
date with political affairs was a very

important life
goal. That was
up from an alltime low of 28 per­
cent in 2000, and a
f reversal of a threer decade trend of plummet­
ing political interest among
freshmen.
While that is a far cry from
the 60-plus percent registered by
196b freshmen, Dr. J. Michael
Lennon, professor of English and chair
of the division of humanities at Wilkes,
says this generation can’t help but be
more politically aware.
“What’s happened overseas since
September 11th has made everyone
more politically active. You can’t teach
a course without September 11th or
the war in Iraq coming up,” he says.
“They have relatives in the service or
relatives who died in the Twin Towers.
They’re much more aware of the world
around them.”
But Dr. Brian Redmond, professor of
geoenvironmental sciences at Wilkes,
wonders why he isn’t seeing fire-in-thebelly passion for things like the envi­
ronment. “In the ’60s, people were very,
very passionate about the environment.
Up into the 70s, they were very worked
up about it. Today, there seems to be

less passion in the field.
SAT data showing high school stu­
dent degree preferences illustrate the
point. “Environmental science has
practically dropped off the map. Fewer
and fewer people consider something
like that,” says Redmond. But he
remains optimistic. “There are pendu­
lum effects. Things become popular,
they fade, they come back again.”
Many accounts suggest that this is a
generation focused on work-world
realities. A tough economy that’s pro­
ducing fewer jobs has dashed the one­
time notion ofjob entitlement. Yet they
remain optimistic. They believe they
have a good chance of achieving the
same standard of living as their parents
— if they arm themselves with new
and varied work skills.
“They are well aware the economic
context is such that they may actually
not be looking at a job at graduation,”
says Crahall. As a result... “they’re
working harder in different ways.”
More than ever, students are empha­
sizing the value of practical hands-on
experience in dieir fields. One exam­
ple: Zebra Communications, a student­
run public relations agency at Wilkes,
provides professional services to area
government, non-profits, and small
businesses.

“There is a work ethic, says
Crahall. “What we say. and what
employers and internship direc­
tors say about our students, is
dieir work ethic is superior. They
come in with skills, which I
would expect from any student,
but what they bring that they didn't
expect was the initiative, the drive, and
the ability to say, ‘I’ve finished; what
can I do now?’ Our students know in
this economy they better show a port­
folio of work that will make them look
like they've had one or two years of
full-time experience, or they’re not get­
ting a job.”
Lennon agrees, saying one unique
characteristic of this generation is agili­
ty — in terms of career planning and
preparing for jobs that, in some cases,
don't yet exist.
“They understand that the world of
work has changed markedly” says
Lennon. “They have brothers and sisters
and parents who have lost jobs, gained
jobs, created new jobs. They are — as
Americans have always been — mobile
and flexible. But this generation is more
so. They are more willing to travel, more
willing to try7 new7 things, more willing
to leam new7 skills, more willing to be
involved in new kinds of professional
positions than just a few years ago.”
Gone are the day’s when a student
wanted to be an accountant. Today;
Lennon say’s they want to be account­
ants with minors in international affairs
or Spanish, because they might be tiring
overseas. “I have noticed an uptick in
the number of students taking minors,”

"What's happened overseas since

[students] have relatives in the service
or relatives who died in the Twin
Towers. They're much more aware
of the world around them."
DR. J. MICHAEL LENNON,
PROFESSOR OF ENGLISH AND CHAIR OF THE DIVISION OF HUMANITIES

says Lennon. “They want more than
one arrow in their academic quivers
these days. They're much more interest­
ed in double majors, or minors, or even
two minors that can be a marketable
asset in a dynamic and changing work­
place."
And what a workplace it is. It can
change in a blink Major corporations
disappear—gobbled up by’ competition
or failing on their own. Dot coms, they
know, went dot gone. But new business
and economic opportunities emerge at
the same speed.

“Where was Google three years ago?
It was just one in a pack and now they’re
one of die largest corporations in the
world,” say’s Lennon. ‘‘Todays students
are seeing history’ speed up. Things don’t
remain in place as long as they did 10 or
15 years ago, when diere was a lot more
stability. There was a time when you
went to work for a firm; you could
expect to stay’ the rest of your life. They’
don't have that expectation anymore.”
But Redmond cautions that today’s
students can, at times, be too
focused on going through the
— \
paces of getting a degree and
subse-

quent employment.
“I tried this once. In the middle of an
astronomy lecture, I made the com­
ment that the moon is made out of
green cheese. So help me, half the class
wrote it down,” he says. “There is an
attitude on the part of some that, Tm
in this class, I need to pass this class
and I really don’t care what you say. I
will write down what you say and I will
parrot back whatever you want so 1 can
pass this course and get a good grade,’ I
try to discourage that.”
Still, no generation is as technologi­
cally adept as this one. Not long ago,
Wilkes and others provided students
with e-mail, word processing, and
spreadsheet training. No more. Schools
now assume that today’s students are
technologically mature about their
electronic connection to the world.
But that prowess challenges the
nation’s schools to stay ahead of the
technology' curve and, at the same
time, meet the expectations of today's
students, says Dr. Paul Adams 77, vice
president for student affairs at Wilkes.
“Students come to campus and expect
to plug in their laptops.”
Increasingly, students deem state-ofthe-art technology' infrastructure,
around-dte-clock library' services, bet­
ter living

space, more help at learning
and writing centers, and counseling to
help them cope with their busy’ lives as
basic sendees. Prospective students
look at campus amenities — like free
laundry’ available at Wilkes — as fac­
tors in their application decision
processes.
As a result, “We are clearly providing
more sendees today’ than we did 20
years ago,” says Adams. “We are con­
stantly raising the bar to be more
attractive, and trying to add value and
distinguish ourselves from the compe­
tition, while creating the best possible
education environment for our young
people.”
One example: Students wanted a
place to call their own and the 48.000square-foot Henry’ Student Center,
built in 1999, quickly’ became the hub
of student activity. It will soon undergo
expansion to accommodate the need
for additional dining and recreation
space.
Have instructors changed the way
they teach? Yes and no.
“Teaching hasn’t really’ changed since
Socrates sat on one end of the log and a
student sat on the other end. That’s still
the ideal way to do things,” says
Lennon. “We have learned to use tech­
nology’ as a useful supplement to teach­
ing. We can’t do without e-mail or web
sites to post material. We can't do with­
out the technology7. But even as we
developed plans for an online master’s
degree, we insisted that students come
to campus for two two-week periods,
two years in a row, so we can see them
face-to-face, press the flesh, socialize,
break bread together, and get to know
them. There is no substitute for pres­
ence.”
Elmcs-Crahall thinks todays stu­

dents
learn differently’.
“They are far more visual.
They grasp by pictures and
icons. That is one of the ways
they leam — through visual.
Hence, the popularity of lecture
by’ PowerPoint.”
She, too, is seeing a comfort in
group process. “What they’re doing
in the classroom, including my own, is
learning that teams and ensembles
teach each other far more than a lot of
traditional sources. They’ are comfort­
able and thrive in group process. But
they’ inform themselves in a solitary’
way and far more through the Internet
— and that can be problematic.”
That, she says, can affect interper­
sonal communication.
“Their formal mode of delivery’ is in
writing. Formal writing and public
speaking both continue to erode
because Internet-speak is not what you
need to succeed professionally or, I
would suggest, even personally,” say’s
Crahall. “You don’t leam listening skills
on the Internet. You don’t leam how to
edit on die Internet. You probably’ don’t
leam plagiarism ethics on
the Internet because they
tend to see it as a grand
public domain they own.”
But Crahall says there is
an advantage to working
well in group process
because the workplace is
increasingly’ becoming
group environment television crews.
account teams. “Being
comfortable in a group
process is an essential

skill. We're
beginning to figure out as a
culture that there is a lol to be said for
getting along with groups and respect­
ing the diversity that comes with it
This generation is further ahead in that
regard than many’ realize.”
As the data illustrate, more students
than ever are going to college.
“Students know one tiling — and this
generation believes it more than any
other — if you don't have a college
education you will be relegated to loweaming wages the rest of yrour life.
You’re going to be at the bottom of the
economic chain,” says Lennon.
Driving the point home: Over the
course of an adults working life, high
school graduates can expect, on aver­
age, to eam Si.2 million; those with
bachelor’s degrees, $2.1 million; and
people with masters degrees, S2.5 mil­

ROM THE TIME I MET JAY SIDHU AT A WILKES BOARD OF TRUSTEES MEETING

early in my tenure, I knew that he would be an extraordinary member At
| that meeting, he helped the board understand the need to change its governance
approaches to bring them more into line with best corporate practice. And he
asked me to meet with him to discuss a larger role for him in supporting Wilkes
I approached our meeting with some modest ideas about how we could work
together to improve our existing business program. But Jay had bigger plans.
That's what 1 soon discovered about Jay: he is the consummate visionary He has a
broader view of his company, he has a broader view of his industry'; he has a broad­
er sense of his purpose in life.
During our meeting jay alluded to the fact that other universities had been
courting him for help in developing post-baccalaureate business education pro­
grams. I was delighted to leam that Jays response to them was “if I'm going to do
anything significant in this direction, I will be doing it for Wilkes University.”
Jay went on to tell me that he hoped to make a “transformational” gift to Wilkes,
one that would help us propel the University to greater prominence and influence
in the regional, national and international education communities.
In April 2003, he made good on that promise, committing with Sovereign Bank a
total of S3 million to establish a new school of business. In recognition of the gift,
the University’s Board of Trustees voted to name the new entity’ the Jay S. Sidhu
School of Business and Leadership.
But the truly remarkable thing about Jay’s commitment to Wilkes is that it has
gone way’ bey’ond his generous financial support. He has been wholly involved in
the development of the School, offering resources from Sovereign Bank as well as
his own ideas to create a distinctive program. The result will be an extraordinary
business leadership curriculum that will be the best of its land in the nation.
Through it all Jay’s concern for our students and recognition of the role they wi

R. PAOLA BIANCO-SOBEJANO.

V Wilkes Study Abroad
I
J Advisor, notes that each
year, approximately 15 stu­
dents spend either a semester, a sum­
mer or a month abroad. “The courses
are not always related to the student's
particular field, but the experience is
valuable,” she says. “The culture,
lifestyle and mentality leach us about
ourselves, and how Americans are per­
ceived.”
She stresses that students must be
immersed in a culture for a period of
time to gain the full value of a study
abroad program.
In one Wilkes study abroad pro­
gram, students can earn six credits in
Spain, with four days in Paris, France.
Including airfare and meals, the cost is
only S3,195. As Bianco points out,
some programs abroad are even less
expensive than American courses.
There are also other options. This
year, as part of a combined undergrad-

uate and graduate business course, 47
students loured Europe in a week’s
time.
‘‘With the undergraduate course, the
purpose is to create a learning experi­
ence to facilitate the student under­
standing of the international business
environment. We examined dynamic
environmental influences on interna­
tional consumers, markets, and
economies," said Dr. Wagiha Taylor,
Professor of International Business and
Economics.
The graduate experience is much
more intense. “The purpose of the
graduate course was to create a global
learning experience using Western
Europe as a medium to facilitate the
student understanding the global busi­
ness environment,” adds Taylor.
“Presentations, discussions, travel,

observations, and projects provided the
opportunity to demonstrate the stu­
dents knowledge.”
The itinerary for this course was
extensive. Students visited Germany,
Switzerland, Austria, and Italy with
stays in cities such as Frankfurt,
Rothenburg, Munich, Venice and
Verona.
Upon return to the United States,
students prepared presentations based
on their experiences. According to
Taylor, “learning is most effective when
students are actively involved and
responsible for the experience."
And that experience has proven
invaluable. The only complaint BiancoSobejano can remember hearing is, “I
wish I could have stayed longer.” Il I

DURING AN ALTERNATIVE SPRING BREAK TRIPTO MIAMI, FLORIDA, WILKES STUDENTS PAIRED

t community has always been

part of the Wilkes culture.
ww This year, Wilkes students
strengthened that commitment
through senice in the classroom and
programs such as REACH, and VITA.
According to Gail Minichiello, Wilkes’
Coordinator of Community Senice,
“students gain practical experience while
helping and meeting people. Because
many students are not from the area,
service offers them a way to know the
community and connect with them.”
While most opportunities to volun­
teer occur outside the classroom, there
are times when senice is integrated
into a course, as in Dr. Michelle
Anthony’s Composition 101 class.
Anthony, an assistant professor of
English, said, “students have to donate
their time to at least three different
charitable organizations a minimum of
8

six times, for a total of 18 hours during
the semester. They may work any­
where that serves the homeless in some
way—soup kitchens, shelters, even
local animal shelters.
“After each volunteer experience, stu­
dents must write a one-page response to
their time with the population, record­
ing their thoughts and reactions to the
part that stood out most for diem.”
Why make sendee a component of
the classroom? Anthony believes it
helps increase reliability in students’
writing, and teaches everyone some­
thing. “My courses tend toward the
civic-minded anyway, and it was get­
ting so that I was constantly gearing
discussion toward the disenfranchised
of America. So I thought—isn’t this
hypocritical? We can talk in the class­
room about issues, but we can’t really
know until we are in situations our­
selves.”

The class of 21 students was slightly
&lt;" ’ ’
resistant at first, but they arc begin­
ning to appreciate the value of the
experience,” says Anthony. “It's a joy
to read students’ response papers as
they open up to new experiences with
unfamiliar populations.”
Minichiello points out that there are
two groups on campus dedicated to
serving the community. The Student
Community Service Council and Circle
K, the college organization of Kiwanis,
actively look for opportunities to help
in the community, including spending
lime with the elderly or helping under­
privileged children with homework at
Head Start or McGlynn Learning
Center.
However, Minichiello adds that there
are many other groups on campus that
make volunteerism part of their mis­
sion and help with Red Cross blood
drives, St. Vincent DePaul kitchen and
food drives, among many others.
Students In Free Enterprise (SIFE) is
heavily involved with die REACH program.The group meets with families
monthly for dinner, followed by a
counseling session in finance. Odier
volunteers play with the children, help
with homework, and engage in other
learning activities.
This year, the University hosted two
alternative spring break trips. The first
was to Miami, Florida, where volun­
teers worked in a senior center and vis­
ited homebound senior citizens. The
second trip was to Brazil, where volun­
teers worked with children and helped
with construction.
Another way Wilkes serves the sur-

rounding community while students
gain practical experience is through
VITA. This 20-year-old program,
Volunteer Income Tax Assistance,
allows junior accounting majors to put
their knowledge to the test while help­
ing those who cannot afford an
accountant.
Cynthia Chisarick, C.PA. an associ­
ate professor of accounting and busi­
ness administration, serves as faculty
coordinator for the program, which is
offered in conjunction with the IRS and
the Pennsylvania Department of
Revenue.

Not all volunteerism on campus is
directed through the University.
Kristopher Fayock ’04 has been a Big
Brother for almost three years.
“I first got the idea to join Big
Brothers/Big Sisters from the encour­
agement of my high school biology
teacher. I wasn't able to join during
high school, but once 1 got to Wilkes, I
was able to." said Fayock.
Because of his dedication to his “lit­
tle brother” and many other volunteer
activities, Fayock earned the John J.
Chwalek Scholarship, which is given to
an “outstanding individual with a

strong academic record who has been
involved in student life, has provided
leadership on campus and in the com­
munity, motivated others and exhibits
the potential for success."
But with busy academic and extra­
curricular schedules, how do students
find time and motivation to help others?
According to Fayock, “I volunteer
because 1 enjoy helping others. I am
fortunate with what my family has
been able to provide for me, so I try to
help others that may be less fortunate. 1
enjoy the feeling that 1 might be mak­
ing a difference in someone’s life." I■ I

Urban Center names director
T« GRANTON NATIVETERI OOMS

has been named executive
m
director of the new Joint
Urban Studies Center. The
Center is a collaborative endeavor sup­
ported by the area’s five colleges and
universities: College Misericordia,
King’s College, Luzerne County
Community College, Penn State
Wilkes-Barre and Wilkes University.
Ooms returns to Northeastern
Pennsylvania from Riverside,
California, where for six years she
served as executive director of the
Inland Empire Economic Partnership
and the Inland Empire Tourism
Council. She has also served as its pres­
ident and chief executive officer since
1997. Ooms managed the organiza­
tion’s eight operating divisions and
multiple contracts and grants.
As executive director, Ooms will
work with government officials, com-

munity members and economic devel­
opment partners to conduct research
and develop inclusive plans that lead to
smart economic growth. In addition,
she wall design leadership development
and community sendee opportunities
for students from each of the partner
institutions.
The Center is funded by more than
$1 million in contributions from the
colleges, local businesses, foundations,
community leaders and civic organiza­
tions, including a $300,000 challenge
grant from Wilkes alumnus and
University trustee William P.
Montague ’68.
Ooms, whose husband, Phil and
sons Timothy and Douglas wall accom­
pany her back to the region, said, “1 am
delighted to be coming home and to be
able to make a contribution to the
future of Northeastern Pennsylvania.
This is truly such a special place, and I

know that working together, we can
create opportunities so that my sons
will want to stay here when they're
grown.”
The Center opened March 20. Wilkes
University will manage the Center and
serve as a temporary location until per­
manent office space can be established
in downtown Wilkes-Barre. I* I

on you." said the business administra­
tion major.
A May 2004 graduate, Gabardi says
she will miss Wilkes in more ways than
one. "My academic advisor, Dr. Alves,
has been with me since freshman year,
assuring me I can do anything I put my
mind to. Dr. Alves and many others
10

have helped me become the person 1
am today."
Gabardi has tried almost everything
in her field. As an admissions telecoun­
selor for Wilkes, she honed her persua­
sive speaking abilities, and later put
them to the test when she successfully
solicited a grant in support of REACH, a
local community service program that
provides help for low-income families.
She has immersed herself in business
in every way possible, including working
nearly 20 hours a week at the
University's Small Business
Development Center. And before all
this, she marketed various newsletters
to senior business executives as pan of
the College Internship Program.
Then there is her work for Golden
Technologies in Old Forge, Pa. Gabardi
designed and executed a quality assur­
ance survey for the company’s top 1,000
customers, compiling the data and ulti­
mately presenting the results to compa­
ny representatives.

But Gabardi cites her internship at
Anhur J. Gallagher &amp; Company in
Wayne. N.J. as the most influenual. She
prepared proposals, gadrered data,
accompanied producers on sales calls,
interacted with clients, negotiated with
underwriters and participated in depart­
mental meetings and brainstorming
sessions. Gabardi says that all intern­
ships provide valuable experience, but
this one allowed her to use her skills as
part of a group of students from around
the country.
“My internship with Gallagher was
an eye-opener for me," said Gabardi. I
was among students from a select
group of colleges and represented one
of the few small, private universities.
Yet I felt I knew the same if not more
than the others.”
It may be obvious that Gabardi is a
champion of her alma mater, but the
new Sidhu School of Business and
Leadership certainly adds to her attrac­
tion. In fact, at the unveiling of the new

School, Gabardi admitted a small desire
to do it all over again.
“My favorite part of die business
division at Wilkes is the fact that I can
interact with faculty and fellow class­
mates. What is wonderful about the new
school is dial this interaction will be
taken to an even greater level.”
Nonetheless, Gabardi is ready to enter
the business world.
“In the end, Wilkes University
has helped me believe in myself.
The classes, the experiences, the
opportunities, and the people
have been second to none. I’ve
certainly exceeded my goals.
Wilkes has enabled me to become
an independent person who is not
afraid to think ‘outside the box.’ I
will enter the ‘real-world’ with con­
fidence knowing I’ve received and
experienced nothing but the best
from Wilkes University.” I*I

Sidhu was soon privy to high level
dealings of the banking industry, attend­
ing bound meetings and sitting in on
mcigcr and acquisition talks. Withinfour
years, he was named lice President of
Corporate Strategy. He was just 25.
Today, Sidhu is President, CEO and
Chainnan of Reading-based Sovereign
Bank and Sovereign Bankcorp. Under his
leadership, the bank has experienced
remarkable success, growing through sev­
eral smart acquisitions in the northeast­
ern U.S. into a S-iO billionfinancial
institution positioned as the third largest
bank headquartered in Pennsy lvania and
the thiid largest in New England.
Those who knew Sidhu while he was a
student at Wilkes are not surprised by his
extraordinary success. He was “studious,
serious and thorough,” says President
Emeritus Robert Capin, who taught
Sidhu managerial accounting. “He w as
eager to advance as quickly as possible, ”
he says, adding that Sidhu neverforgot
the people at Wilkes who helped him get
where he is. “I saw him at an event
recently,” recalled Capin, “and it was as
if we had never lost touch through all
theses ears. Relationships are obviously
very important to him.”
Sidhu demonstrates that commitment
through his senice on the University’s
board of trustees. He has been a trustee
since 1996, and now serves as chainnan
of the University 's audit committee. He
also has been an extremely generous
financial supporter. Last year, he pledged
51 -5 million to expand and reshape the
University's business program, and added
a matching $1.5 million from Sovereign
Bank to create an executive education
program. Taken together, the gift is the
largest from an alumnus in the universi­
ty's 70-year history.
In recognition of his generosity and his

covERStory

accomplishments in business and leader­
ship, the Wilkes board of tnistees has
named the new program theJay Sidhu
School of Business and Leadership.
The schools emphasis on leadership
directly emanates from Sidhu's vision of
what leaders can be. He champions a
value-based approach known as “authen­
tic leadership,” which is founded on prin­
ciples of emotional intelligence:
truthfulness, an absence of defensiveness
and sincere empathy. Those qualities,
combined with an intense personal drive
that is channeled into professional
accomplishment, are more important to
leadership than IQ, Sidhu believes.
In February, Willies University
Director of Marketing Communications,
Vaughn Shinkus visited with Sidhu in his
Wy omissing home to leant more about the
leadership vision that will characterize
Sidhu School graduates. Sidhus wife,
Sherry, offered an additional perspective
on thefamily life of a hard-charging
leaderJay and Sherry have two children:
Sammy, an MBA student in the University
of Pennsylvania's Wharton School, and
Luvleen, who will begin classes at either
Yale or Harvard this Fall.
The Sidhus’ humility is evident as they
talk about their accomplishments and the
factors that motivate them to give bach to
society. “Its awkward to see how much
attention people are paying to our contri­
bution, ” said Jay. “We see it as our duty. ”
The interview began with further dis­
cussion of the gift.
WILKES UNIVERSE: Why choose to make
such a substantial gift to Wilkes
University?
jay sidhu: Its obvious that Wilkes
and I have a special connection. Wilkes
did so much for me and gave me the
opportunity to be where I am today.
Also, I think you want to make an

investment where you can have the
greatest impact. There is compatibility in
our approach on what it takes to suc­
ceed. Our vision is that its not just devel­
opment of intellectual curiosity that
matters, its development of the whole
individual, through emotional intelli­
gence, intellectual skills, and passion.
wu: Do you agree that leadership is
somethingyou are bom with, or can it be
cultivated?
JS: The kinds of experiences you
have in life from your childhood have a
significant impact on your overall emo­
tional security. That’s why some people
say that leadership is inborn. But it’s
experience in life that helps you under­
stand yourself and helps you see your
strengths, your weaknesses, helps you
develop confidence, helps you develop
your ability to have relationships with

other people, helps you understand
how you are perceived and how the
moods of other people can have an
impact. All these qualities put together
is what gives you the edge.
WU: Is that the essence ofAuthentic
Leadership?
js: That is correct. Its something one
is usually not bom with-—it needs to
be taught. What we are trying to do (in
establishing the Sidhu School) is to cre­
ate an atmosphere where students will
develop self-awareness, self-confi­
dence, relationship-building skills. The
bottom line is, we ought to help them
become more well-rounded individuals
so that they can tackle any kind of
problem in any kind of situation.
wu: How will Wilkes know if we are
being successful?
Js: 1 think that in five to ten years

when our graduates are out of school
and they come back and say Wilkes
made a difference in my life,’ we’ll
know we’re successful. We re not just
talking about giving them the skills to
help them get their first job.
wu: That's a long-term measure for
someone who’s as driven for results as
you are.
JS: Well, success in business culture
is not just quarter-to-quarter earnings.
Its trying to build a company where
mutual trust and respect truly prevail; a
culture where key members see it as
one of the best places to work. These
are all long-term goals. But, of course,
you can only have long-term success if
you also perform well in the short term.
wu: Given that you're so driven, how
do you keep your life in balance?
JS: My philosophy’ is that you are
never truly in balance—you're always
adjusting to improve the quality of
your life. Balance is more of a state of
mind. It is very hard to try to balance
your business life and your home life,
for example. But the truth is, I just can't
see how people can succeed without
having a great partner. That’s why 1
give credit to Sherry’ in helping to truly
balance our priorities, helping raise
healthy children, helping to keep me,
sort of, in check.
wu: Sheny, is that how y ou see your
role in this partnership?
sherry sidhu: It does balance it out
because he is driven to do his best at
his work and 1 am driven to do my best
at home. Because he’s so energetic,
there's no such dung as sitting back
and relaxing. So rite children can relax
with me and they can be on the go
with him. (laughs)
wu: Do you see these same qualities in
Sammy and Luvleen?

ss: Yes, they are both also great
achievers.
wu: That must bringyou tremendous
satisfaction.
js: Yes, no question. Sammy is—for­
tunately—much more mature than I
was at his age. They are both self-aware
and goal-driven, and it is wonderful
when others say’ how well they handle
themselves. True success for both of us
is really to see how developed emotion­
ally and spiritually they are. Thats the
ultimate success for any parent.
wu: You yourself achieved tremendous
success at a very young age. What
allowed you to make such rapid
progress?
js: A couple of things. One is that
you never look at a challenge as how
difficult it is. If there is a w'ay it can be
done, find a way to do it. Another is
that you should always try7 to go
beyond what is expected of you.
Also, you should always try to do the
best with the job that is in front of you.
rather than thinking about what you
would be doing if you had your boss's
job. I see so many young people make
fatal mistakes because they are worrving about those one or two opportuni­
ties ahead of them. They put all their
energy into why they cant get it done
because of 'so and so.' You will con­
stantly have challenges in life, but you
have to look at life as an opportunitv to
excel and meet those challenges and
consider them learning experiences.
That is what builds self-satisfaction and
self-confidence. .And self confidence is
so critical—self confidence balanced
with humility.
wu: What would v cur advice be to
someone who is about to graduate front a
bachelor s degree program and strike out
on their own'

1S

�covERStory

js: First of all, it’s a great pan of your
life that you should enjoy. Don’t forget
to do that. But a couple of otlier things,
too. One is have a vision, have a dream
of what you want to be, what you
would like to achieve in life.
Second, try always to look at any­
thing and everything you are doing and
the challenges that you have as an
opportunity.
Finally, I would say try your best to
have mentors. Success in business
especially comes from your pushing
yourself while somebody is pulling
you. All successful leaders are looking
for others who can succeed with them.
wu: How much of the way you live
and the way you nin the business reflects
your spirituality?
JS: There is no question about it. We
were both brought up in disciplined
environments, and we were botli
brought up whereby we were driven to
excel in anything and everything we
strived to do. At the same time we were
encouraged to be learners and to be
respectful of other people.
At Sovereign, our belief is that it is
absolutely essential and critical to have
mutual trust and respect, it is absolute­
ly essential and critical to follow up on
what you say, it is absolutely essential
and critical to have open and honest
communication, it is absolutely critical
to be aware of our strengths as well as
our weaknesses and to be able to talk
as freely about our weaknesses as we
can about our strengths. Because that is
the only way you have continuous
improvement. Everyone has weakness­
es. But we are striving to have a culture
where we talk about our screw-ups
with equal enthusiasm as we talk about
our achievements.
wu.- How have corporate governance

16

covERStory

1M
scandals impacted the way you do
business?
js-. The problems that have emerged
in the corporate world are out of arro­
gance, out of lack of self-awareness.
Where communication systems are not
open and honest. Where authentic
leadership doesn’t exist. Where truth­
fulness is not encouraged at all. That
creates an environment where you are
significantly exposed to risk.
Nobody is intentionally dishonest,
they just justify their activities as being
above anybody’s ability’ to catch them.
That’s what I mean when I say they are
not as self-aware.To me integrity and
honesty are the result of your being
self-aware about your principles and
beliefs. It’s not something that you can
just leant from a textbook.
wu: Much has been made about the
possibility of acquisition of Sovereign;
What are the things that you would need
to evaluate if that became a possibility?
js: I think you need to look at what
is in the best interest of all stakeholders
in the shon-term and long-term. In a
free enterprise system you have to earn
the right to remain an independent
company. Companies that are built to
last are those that have a culture that
goes beyond the individuals in the
company. They have a culture of con­
tinuous improvement. So, if truly we
believe that it is better for us to be
aligned with someone else because it
adds to our strengths and overcomes

our weaknesses, it makes sense. But at
the same time, our principle is to look
at both the long term and short term.
I hope we can create a company in
Sovereign that can be built to last.
Where leadership truly becomes a sus­
tainable competitive advantage, and
can be one of the best companies to
work for. We know we are no way
there—we see ourselves as a good
company but not a great company yet.
wu: What can students at Wilkes leant
from the Sidhu story?
ss: I can only say from my experience
of bringing up my children. Not every­
one comes from a background of con­
venience and comfort. Sometimes
motivation comes from the lack of
something. You need motivation to
change things, to do things. A lot of that
is evident in Jay’s background, because
he did not come from a background of
extreme luxury. That gave him the
will—the determination—to change
tilings. You really do need to work very
hard in life to achieve anything.
JS: The traits of an emotionally and
spiritually healthy individual are the
same traits of an emotionally and spiri­
tually healthy organization. And spiri­
tuality is not only a way of getting
success but also developing humility, a
concern for others, a love, universal
principles that makes you authentic.
And that’s why we consider it to be an
important pan of personal and profes­
sional goals. Ill

W&amp; Leadership was
announced in April 2003, it promised
to bring great advancements to the
business curriculum. Since tlien,
Wilkes’ business faculty have been
reshaping the curriculum to enhance
the Wilkes Business student’s experi­
ence and create graduates who are
ready for anything.
According to Business professor Dr.
Anne Heineman Batory; “the biggest,
most important change is the emphasis
on leadership and on helping our stu­
dents to identify their strengths and
nurture them through their four years.”
This will be accomplished through the
new Personal and Professional
Development series (PPD). “It is the
glue that holds the whole program
together. It helps students understand
their skills and strengths,” said Dr.
Jeffery7 Alves, The Allan R Kirby; Jr.
Professor of Free Enterprise and
Entrepreneurship.
The seven one-credit courses will be
spread over students’ four years along
with die general education courses. The
difference lies in the fact that in previ­
ous years the general courses were
completed in the first two years and die
major courses in the last two. With this
change, the new curriculum aims to

make students more comfortable with
continuous exposure to the different
aspects of their education, including the
liberal arts, sciences and business.
Batory admits that the series is “a lot of
w'ork on the pan of the student, but it is
combined with the rest of the University
curriculum—including developing writ­
ing, speaking, analytical skills.”
The PPD series and general courses
have been “bookended” with the fresh­
men experience and senior internship
and capstone, said Alves. The freshmen
year begins with an integrated manage­
ment experience in which students
develop, finance and run a business
over the course of a year with help
from courses on entrepreneurship and
accounting. The senior year internship
has been combined with die capstone,
while in the past the two have
remained separate.
According to Alves, “the first two
years are awareness building, and by
the end of the sophomore year, a learn­
ing plan is developed. The second two
years build on the last two and look
beyond college seriously. Students
meet business leaders, managers and
entrepreneurs and learn what’s really
out there. They map out the next five
to ten years of their lives.”
Alves adds that adaptability to differ­
ent environments and an appreciation
for diversity is also imperative.

“Graduates will stand out if they’re
comfortable in a multicultural environment.” An objective of the new cur­
riculum is to “increase international
exposure, preferably with a semester
abroad, or internship at a multi-nation­
al company,” said Alves.
Perhaps one of the most important
changes will be the emphasis on emo­
tional intelligence, a ver}' important
attribute in a business professional.
Simply stated, emotional intelligence is
the ability to understand and manage
emotion. Alves explains that an emo­
tionally intelligent person is aware of
his own emotions and how they affect
others, and also how others’ emotions
affect him.
“To me, emotional intelligence is
being wadi the person you’re interact­
ing with. You need to understand the
person so you can both benefit. You
interpret emotion and then help them.
You also need to identify your own
feelings,” said Batory.
The ultimate goal, of course, is to
create graduates who are desirable to
businesses today. According to Bator);
“from my experience, professional
businesses want a self-initiator, some­
one who is creative and innovative,
learns and challenges.”
With an emphasis on emotional
intelligence, diversity and creativity the
Sidhu School aims to do just that. l» I

//I I ANY DREAM OFWORKING

■ W
11

t ■ in the sports industry.
■ Il is not too often that

■ wF ■ the dream becomes a
reality; but for five Wilkes graduates,
it has.
Eddie While ’80, Will Taylor 00.
Matt Reitnour 01, David DiManino
’01, M’03, and Michael DaRe ’03 have
all found success after studying
Communications and graduating from
Wilkes University. Though they have
similar academic backgrounds, these

five men are involved in very different
aspects of the spons industry.
White is the Vice-President of Team
Properties and Sports Marketing for
Reebok. He was the Director of Public
Relations for Logo Athletic, a sports
apparel company in Indianapolis, from
1989-2001. In 2001, Reebok purchased
Logo Athletics, and White has
remained with the company. He focuses
on marketing and works with every
NFL and NBA team.
White found immediate success

following his graduation from Wilkes
in 1980. He was the Assistant Sports
Information Director at Notre Dame
from 1982-1986. White left the
Fighting Irish to accept the position of
Director of Public Relations for the
Miami Dolphins from 1986-1989 before
heading to Logo Athletics.
“Wilkes gave me so many opportu­
nities, and Hl never forget dial,” said
White, who received the Farley award
in 2001. “I’ve been blessed with the
opportunity to work on numerous
levels of sports, and I’m able to do this
as a result of Wilkes leaching me how
to do a lol of things at the same time.'1
After walking around the Wilkes
campus for four years with a camera
seemingly attached to his shoulder,
Taylor, a 2000 graduate, went on to
work for NBA Entertainment as an edi­
tor and cameraman. As a high defini­
tion cameraman, Taylor has found
himself filming both NBA and WNBA
games, interviewing players and coach­
es, and covering press conferences in
the New York/New Jersey area.
Occasionally, he docs field shots for
Inside Stuff, NBAAVNBA Action, and
NBA TV. Taylors footage has aired
nationally on NBC, ESPN, and NBA TV.
He edits similar material for national
broadcasts, including bumpers and
teasers for various programs.
In addition, Taylor works for Ferro
Productions, the main production
company for the New York Giants.
“Working for the Giants is great
because you’re a part of the team,” he
said. “The best part about it for me is
that I grew up a huge Giants fan, so
this is like living a dream.” The
Giants produce two television shows
that air on New York’s MSG and FOX
stations ever}' Sunday, and Taylor

works on the studio crew as a camera
operator.
According to Taylor, the best experi­
ence of his early career was when he
covered Michael Jordan returning to
the NBA in a 2001 game against the
New York Knicks.
Graduating from Wilkes just one year
after Taylor, Reitnour made his new
home in Buffalo, NY working for
Division 1 Canisius College. Serving as
the Athletic Communications Assistant
for the Canisius Griffins sports teams,
he is the media contact for Griffins vol­
leyball, women’s basketball, softball, and
men’s and womens cross-country teams.
When Canisius hosted the first and
second round of the NCAA men’s bas­
ketball tournament in March, Reitnour
helped with media relations for the
event. Last year, he was on the statisti­
cal crew for the NCAA Frozen Four,
the D-I mens ice hockey champi­
onships. In 2003, he worked with
S}Tacuse basketball at the NCAA East
Regional Championships, which they
won to advance to the final four.
Reitnour earned his position after
working in the Athletic Communications
office at Canisius as a graduate assis­
tant for two years while earning his MS
in Sports Administration.
While Reitnour has found his niche
at the collegiate level, his Wilkes class­
mate, DiManino, has found his with a
professional sports team. DiMartino
not only earned his undergraduate
degree at Wilkes, but he also received
his MBA while working as a graduate
assistant in the University’s Sports
Information Office. His work with the
Colonels made for a smooth transition
into working with the New York Jets.
DiMartino served on the game day
staff for the Jets during the 2003-2004

season, and he has been invited to
return this fall to be a part of the statis­
tics and media relations crew. His game
management experience provided him
with the opportunity to meet every
member of the Jets team and their
coaching staff.
DaRe, like White, has found his call­
ing in spons marketing. The 2003
Wilkes graduate has already found suc­
cess at a marketing firm, Alan Taylor
Communications, located in down­
town Manhattan.
Working as an Assistant Account
Executive, DaRe is heavily involved in
media relations and is currently work­
ing with seven different clients. Two of
his clients are Diageo North America,
the largest producer of alcohol in the
world, and the U.S. Track and Field
Team.
DaRe has had the opportunity to
meet several famous people and ath­
letes, including Marcus Allen, Franco
Harris, Troy Aikman, and Terrell Davis,
all of whom he worked with at the
Superbow’l on February 1st.
Although these graduates are work­
ing in very different areas of the sports
industry, they each credit the education
and experience they received at Wilkes
for preparing them for a successful
future.
“With Wilkes being a smaller
school, I was able to get quality,
hands-on experience from day one. I
was able to take part in more events as
an undergraduate than most people
get as a post-graduate intern,” said
Reitnour. “The environment at Wilkes
was a perfect setting for me to move
toward my goal of working in the
media relations field at the Division I
or professional level.” li I

HE UNITED STATES

H Courdiouse on die comer of
■ West South and South Main
LI Streets in Wilkes-Barre is a mas­
sively impressive tribute to the
Honorable Max Rosenn, SeniorJudge of
the United States Court of Appeals for
the Third Circuit, in whose honor it is
named. The grand facade that domi­
nates the busy streets below and the ele­
gantly austere interior, in which Judge
Rosenns chambers and extensive library’
bespeak his devotion to the law, are fit­
ting reminders of the many contribu­
tions the Judge has made to his
profession and to the community in
which he and his late wife, Tillie, have
lived virtually all of their lives.
The Judges delight in a very' different
kind of tribute, however, was obvious as
he recently’ recalled with pleasure the
establishment and history of the Max
Rosenn Lectures in Law and
Humanities, the series that has brought
the University and the community a host

of distinguished speakers on topics of both contemporary impor­
tance and enduring value.
The lecture series was established in
1980 through an endowment by the
Judges former law clerks, family
members, partners in his former law
firm of Rosenn, Jenkins, and Greenwald,
and friends to mark the tenth anniver­
sary of his sendee on the appellate court.
Former President Robert S. Capin recalls
the carefully kept secret planning that
led to the surprise announcement of the
gift to be administered by Wilkes: “1
don’t remember ever before seeing Max
Rosenn wanting for words, but he was
speechless when Joe Savitz (a partner in
his law firm and Wilkes trustee),
Harold Rosenn (the Judge’s brother),
and about 25 to 30 of his
former law clerks and their spouses
gathered at the President’s house to
present this token of their esteem and
affection.”
Judge Rosenn confirmed his utter sur­
prise and adds “nothing could have
pleased me more” than this gift, which
“has given me a great deal of pleasure
and satisfaction and has become a great
treasure for the University and the com­
munity” Since the initial gift, the endow-

ment has
I1
grown over the
years through the continuing generosity of more than 70 for­
mer clerks, family, and friends who
regard die lectures as a fitting way to
honor the Judge and convey their love
and respect for him.
Judge Rosenn believes the series
has attracted “some of die finest
lecturers and outstanding perj
sonalities in the country”
A
largely because of the network of friends, colleagues, and family that
he and people at Wilkes
have connected with
to make the lecture

an annual event that fills the Dane Center for Performing Arts. Supreme Coun
Justice John Paul Stevens and ChiefJudge Emeritus A. Leon Higginbotham, Jr., of
the U5 Coun of Appeals for the Third Circuit came as personal fnends and col­
leagues ofJudge Rosenn. Henry’ Steele Commager, distinguished historian and pro­
fessor of history’ al Amherst College, was a former teacher io Keith Rosenn, the
Judges son. His other son. Dr. Daniel W. Rosenn. provided the connection that
attracted Dr. T. Berry' Brazleton, one of the nations foremost pediatricians. Judge
Rosenn notes that former President Christopher N. Breiscth, who called the Rosenn
lecture “the highlight of our academic year at Wilkes University.” made connections
with Senator Paul Simon of Illinois and presidential biographer Dons Kearns
Goodwin, w'ho lectured at Wilkes days before she was awarded the Pulitzer Prize.
Dr. J Michael Lennon, former Vice-President for Academic Affairs, was responsible
for attracting Pulitzer Prize winning novelist Norman Mailer. In recent years.
President Joseph (Tim) Gilmour has helped to bring scholars and journalists spe­
cializing in current foreign affairs to appreciative audiences.
Representative Paul J. Kanjorski aptly stated at the rededication of the Max
Rosenn Courthouse that “It is eminently appropriate that this community asset is
named after Judge Rosenn, a man who has enriched our community with his time,
energy, intellect, and love.” The courthouse indeed stands as a monument to Judge
Rosenns many’ accomplishments and contributions. Yet as the poet William Buller
Yeats WTote in “Sailing io Byzantium,” the pursuit of wisdom leads us to seek
“monuments of unaging intellect” that endure when even die most solid of physical
monuments crumble. Such unaging monuments remind us of values that transcend
our limited lime and place in the world.. And certainly the Rosenn Lecture, by
bringing us speakers whose wisdom on subjects ranging from history; politics, law.
literature, economics, international relations, and civil rights to nurturing our chil­
dren, continues to build a lasting monument tojudge Max Rosenns devotion to
the values represented by law and the humanities.

J
Yale Law School professor Amy Chua

presented this year's Rosenn Lecture on
Sunday, April 25. She discussed her best­

selling book “World On Fire: How
Exporting Free Market Democracy

Breeds Ethnic Hatred and Global
Instability," which explores the implica­

tions of exporting western-style democ­

racy and free market economics to areas
where ethnic minorities have major con­

trol over wealth, production, and trade.
This occurs while ethnic majorities, if

employed at all, work for low wages in

poor conditions with little hope of escap­
ing morally and physically debilitating
poverty, she said.

Chua's thesis is based in part on the

personal experience of her family, who

were part of the small, very wealthy entre­
preneurial Chinese minority that has

dominated and controlled the economy
of the Philippines since it achieved inde­
pendence from the United States in 1946,

inciting resentment and violence from the
overwhelmingly Filipino majority.

roller coaster economy, or even die
knowledge dial we are all terminal.
Rather, the causes for my constant anx­
iety are the small things that people do
and say that irritate me.
To begin with. I seem always to be
surrounded by strangers who invade
my personal space — they walk too
slowly (at approximately the speed of
drifting continents), brush up against
me, and befoul my air with cigarette
smoke and an assortment of offensive
odors. When they speak with me, they
mumble unintelligibly or provide
painfully lengthy responses to the
question “How are you?” They remark
on the weather, provide commentary
on the latest high school sporting
events, and analyze the condition of
the economy. Then there are the
“superlative people” - those whose
children are the brightest, whose auto­
mobiles are the fastest, whose homes
are the largest, or whose number of

influential acquaintances are the garni
est. And let us not forget the gum
snappers, the whistlers, the hummers,
die singers, and, of course, the loose

change rattlers.
In office buildings, they press the
“up” or “down” elevator button even
though diese are already in a patently
lit mode (they should certainly observe
me impatiently awaiting the car's
arrival). In retail stores, they stop sud­
denly and without warning at the tops
and bottoms of escalators. They are
forever seeking the exact item for
which 1 am shopping.
At cocktail parties, they congregate
by the door so that I am unable to pass,
idly chitchat at the food table (usually
positioning themselves directly in front
of the shrimp offerings), deposit their
half empty glasses near the food plat­
ters, and stand uncomfortably close to
me as they transparently “work the
crowd.”
Their email is rudely informal (1
detest the greeting/salutation “hi”); and
their voicemail garbled. They provide
