Abstract
Features: Stock Portfolio (Musician, code-breaker, computer expert, zoning official, game creator, and turtle expert. With that kind of Renaissance resume, Gary Stock ’78 must be a “K” grad) -- West Advocates Team Treatment (Kathleen West ’77 is an expert on substance abuse, particularly its treatment in young people. She shares her insight on what works against this disease and on the influence of Kalamazoo College on her career.) / by Zinta Aistars -- ALERT: Staff Infected With Liberal Arts!! Educational Benefits Accrue to All (At Kalamazoo College the curriculum demands and the professors encourage cross-disciplinary exploration, and the culture that results inspires staff members to develop and share their “liberal arts” avocations. This phenomenon strengthens the liberal arts character of our College and adds a “subconscious” affirmation of the lifelong value of liberal arts. LuxEsto profiles three staff members whose varied interests expand the meaning of “going to ‘K’”. Bob Tims–mild-mannered alumni relations staff member by day, photographer/philosopher all the time–took the cover photo during a trip to Italy. Photography is his way of freezing moments from what he thinks of as a rushing torrent of beauty. Event Planner Sass Havilar traveled to Cuba in pursuit of her degree in international relations. And Director of Summer Programs Alfrelynn Roberts sings) / by Zinta Aistars -- Allan Hoben and the K-Plan (The ethos of Kalamazoo College infuses and transcends all of the particular curricula of any given era. The truth of this is reflected in the final portion of the memoir of Allan Hoben. Though he died in 1935, Hoben exerted considerable influence on the genesis of the K-Plan, according to one of the Plan’s chief architects) -- Vital Pillar: The Kalamazoo College Fund in a Time of Campaign (An interview with Carol Dombrowski, interim director of alumni relations and the Kalamazoo College Fund) -- Class of 2002 Helps Bequeath the Liberal Arts to Future Students -- Masons Make Campaign Gift of Music and Social Justice (Elizabeth (Betty) Upjohn Mason and Jerry Mason created The Ann and Blake Mason Endowment for Field Experience in Social Justice and gifted Kalamazoo College with a Steinway concert grand piano) -- A Fine Balance (A profile of Holly Huang, who began attending “K” at age 16) / by Zinta Aistars -- Discovery With Sharing (A McGregor Fund grant will help put Kalamazoo College in faraway places, such as Australia. Just as important, the grant will help bring faraway places to Kalamazoo College students on campus) / by Zinta Aistars --Asleep in the Battlefields of Their Country (The story of Kalamazoo College and the Civil War) -- The Long Road to Career Service (The Center for Career Development has a new Discovery Externship Program) / by John Lundeen -- The Survey Says (Results from the alumni survey) / by Ann Dueweke -- Teaching Good Hands (Assistant Professor of Art Sarah Lindley teaches both ceramics and sculpture) / by Zinta Aistars -- The Return of the Native (Rob Passage returns to Kalamazoo College as the new head basketball coach).
