    CollegianThis is how college is meant to be. Scholar, Teacher, Mentor: Trudier Harris Returns Home By Kelli Wright Coming home at the end of a long journey is a theme that DR. TRUDIER HARRIS has contemplated, taught, and writ- ten about many times in her award-winning books and in the classroom. Recently, Harris found herself in the midst of her own home- coming, the central character in a narrative that is a familiar part of southern life and literature. When she retired from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where she was the J. Carlyle Sitterson Professor of English, she was not looking for other work. But her homecoming resulted in an unexpected “sec- ond career” as a professor in the College’s Department of English and a chance to explore new intellectual territories. In addition, it has meant a return to many of the places of her youth, this time in the role of change agent. Raised on an 80-acre cotton farm in Greene County, Ala., Harris was the sixth of nine children. Though her parents had to work hard to make ends meet, they always stressed the impor- tance of education. Harris attended Tuscaloosa’s 32nd Avenue Elementary School, now known as Martin Luther King Elementary School. In the late 1960s she entered Stillman College in Tuscaloosa. Initially she considered a career as a physical educa- tion teacher or a psychiatrist. But losing an intramural race to a young woman who was half as tall as she dampened her desire to teach PE, and the realization that she did not want to listen to people’s problems soured her plans in psychiatry.

    2015 Annual Report 614-297-0533 • [email protected] 677 E. 11th Avenue • Columbus, OH 43211 LETTER FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR AND 2015 BOARD PRESIDENT Dear Friends, During 2015, NNEMAP was faced with formidable challenges, but at the same time experienced exciting blessings. Foremost, the location where we had served since the mid-eighties, the old 3rd Avenue Methodist Church, was sold. Our landlord was Directions For Youth and Families. Their mission of serving local youth had changed as the Short North had gentrified over the years. They decided to sell the building to find another home. Roy Clark Executive The Ingram White Castle Foundation had given us their GROW award in Director 2014 and allowed us to use a portion of their grant for a down payment on a property in South Linden. Our new location had many advantages. It was handicap accessible, had triple the parking, was air conditioned, had a walk- in cooler, was on a bus line, and most importantly moved us closer to the needs of that community. The move was a costly one for NNEMAP. Again, we were blessed to be able to cover all of those costs with the generous support of the Helen Sells Clarkson Foundation at The Columbus Foundation and the Trinity United Methodist Church Foundation. South Linden is a priority neighborhood for the City of Columbus, Mid-Ohio Food Bank, and many other social agencies in the city. This move placed NNEMAP in a great location, at a great time, and an important moment in Jon Bennett our history. We believe with the support of our many churches, other com- 2015 Board munity partners, and valued volunteers that we are poised to make a real dif- President ference in the lives of our South Linden neighbors and other areas we serve.
