The creative scholarship of the faculty adds lustre to the name of the college. More importantly, together with the work of the alumnae who were taught by the faculty. it is the college's contribution to the growing body of the world's knowledge and understanding. The students and alumnae of Connecticut have always enjoyed expressing their affection and admiration for the faculty, and the faculty have usually responded with enthusiasm. Admittedly, here as elsewhere, the course of true love does not invariably run smooth, but the facts are as stated, and a strong and enduring bond exists between alumnae and faculty.

Mackie ’61, for her exceptional contributions to the field of historic textiles from Islamic lands. Louise Mackie received her bachelor of arts in art history from Wells College and with Carol Gaines Ruckle ’61 after graduation enjoyed visiting her Wells professor, Hannelore Glasser, in Florence, Italy, during two enlightening years of traveling, studying and working in Europe and the Middle East. That led to secretarial work in the Islamic Art Department at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York which inspired studying Islamic art history with Professor Richard Ettinghausen for a master of arts at NYU’s Institute of Fine Arts, integrated with stimulating graduate studies at the American University in Cairo, Egypt. She recently retired as curator of textiles and Islamic art at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Cleveland, Ohio. During her impressive curatorial career of 45 years, Mackie held positions at the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto, The Textile Museum in Washington, D.C., and taught at the University of Toronto. She was a founding director (in 1987) and past president of the Textile Society of America, which is thriving with over 800 WCA AWA R D members; sat on the Advisory Committee of The Textile Museum; and served on the Conseil de Direction of the Centre International d’Etude des Textiles Anciens (CIETA) CEREMONY INVITATION in Lyon, France.

    1 November 18, 2016 Dear President-Elect Trump, As Do You, We

    November 18, 2016 Dear President-elect Trump, As do you, we “seek common ground, not hostility; partnership, not conflict.” In order to maintain the trust required for such productive engagement, it is essential that we immediately reaffirm the core values of our democratic nation: human decency, equal rights, freedom of expression, and freedom from discrimination. As college and university presidents, we commit ourselves to promoting these values on our campuses and in our communities, and we stand alongside the business, nonprofit, religious, and civic leaders who are doing the same in organizations large and small. In light of your pledge to be “President for all Americans,” we urge you to condemn and work to prevent the harassment, hate, and acts of violence that are being perpetrated across our nation, sometimes in your name which is now synonymous with our nation’s highest office. In our schools, on job sites and college campuses, on public streets and in coffee shops, members of our communities, our children, our families, our neighbors, our students, and our employees are facing very real threats, and are frightened. One of the roles of leaders is to protect and empower the most vulnerable. As President-elect, this responsibility rests heavily on you. Let this be a mark of your leadership. Raymond E.

They came together to do what people do at reunions - to renew old friendships, to reminisce, to laugh, to look at old photos of them­ selves when they were younger, to sing "inside" songs, to get dressed up for a reception and to have a banquet with a speaker. In this case, the speaker was General William Westmoreland, and before the banquet, in the afternoon, the group had gone to Arlington National Cemetery to place a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. They represented 1,600 women who had served (some in the 50's, some in the 60's and some in the 70's) in an American Red Cross program which provided recreation for U.S. servicemen on duty in Europe, Korea and Vietnam. It was named Supplemental Recreational Activities Overseas (SRAO). In Europe it was known as the Red Cross center program. In Korea and Vietnam it was Red Cross clubmobile service.

    Schloss Colditz Und Fluchtmuseum

    Recherchetext (www.leipzig.travel/recherchetexte) Colditz - Schloss Colditz und Fluchtmuseum “The Colditz Story” „Sein Herz würde ihm ein Stück tiefer sacken“ und er „müsse seine Seele Gott dem Allmächtigen anbefehlen“ – so beschreibt der britische Offizier Pat Reid in seinem Roman „The Colditz Story“ seine Ankunft auf Schloss Colditz. Im Norden Frankreichs gerät er während des Zweiten Weltkriegs in deutsche Kriegsgefangenschaft und wird am 10. November 1940, nachdem er aus seinem ersten Gefängnis im bayerischen Schloss Laufen ausgebrochen war, ins sächsische Colditz verlegt. Das malerische Schloss mit seinen weißen Giebeln diente von Herbst 1939 bis zur Befreiung 1945 unter der Bezeichnung „Oflag IV-C“ als Sonderkriegsgefangenenlager für alliierte Offiziere. Besonders aufgrund vieler spektakulärer Ausbrüche und Ausbruchsversuche erlangte das Schloss Colditz internationale Bekanntheit. Das Fluchtmuseum im Beamtenhaus macht mit einer Ausstellung die abenteuerlichen Fluchtversuche der alliierten Offiziere erlebbar. Es beherbergt Werkzeuge, Ausstattungen und vieles mehr zum Thema Flucht – ein Höhepunkt, den sich Besucher der Leipzig Region keinesfalls entgehen lassen sollten! Renaissanceschloss Colditz – Eine wechselhafte Geschichte Mit seiner fast 1000-jährigen Geschichte blickt das Schloss Colditz auf bewegte Zeiten zurück. Die erste geschichtliche Erwähnung eines „Burgwards“ in Colditz lässt sich auf das Jahr 1046 datieren. Eine interessante Tatsache: erst um 1200 entstand rund um den Markt die eigentliche Stadt Colditz. Somit thronte die Burganlage schon knapp 150 Jahre früher über dem heutigen Stadtgebiet. Seine erste Blütezeit erlebte Colditz als Jagdschloss unter dem kunstsinnigen und welterfahrenen sächsischen Kurfürsten Friedrich dem Weisen (1486–1525). Nach einem von dem Bäckergesellen Clemens Bock verursachten Brand 1504, der weite Teile der Stadt, das Rathaus, die Kirche und das Schloss verwüstete, wurde das Schloss nach 1506 und besonders um 1520 im Stil der frühen Renaissance umgebaut, umfassend erweitert und neu ausgestattet.

Welcome to the 17th Annual Meeting of the Arkansas Conference United Methodist Women. Also, the first Annual Meeting in our history to be held virtually via Zoom Webinar. The Conference Leadership Team joins me in welcoming you to this “new normal” way of gathering in 2020. Our theme today is “United Methodist Women Ignited for Justice: Let Your Light Shine.” As we have seen over the past months many forms of injustice have been uncovered and the light has begun shining on them. I’m sure when the United Methodist Women Board of Directors and Program Advisory Group members approved the 2019-2020 Program Book theme and programs, little did they know that “for such as time as this” our Sisterhood would be learning about how we can shine light and be the light for others in our hurting world.
