  • Planning for the Fall Is Like 'Driving Through a Dense Fog'
    Planning for the Fall Is Like ‘Driving Through a Dense Fog’ How the presidents of two small liberal-arts colleges are navigating the coronavirus crisis By Len Gutkin and Maximillian Alvarez April 29, 2020 Pete Mauney Bard College In the last two months, the coronavirus crisis has forced colleges to shutter their classrooms and dormitories and move instruction online. What will happen next semester? The Chronicle Review talked (via Zoom, of course) with G. Gabrielle Starr and Leon Botstein, the presidents, respectively, of Pomona College and Bard College, to get a sense of how the leaders at smaller, undergraduate-focused liberal-arts schools are handling this critical period. Starr and Botstein discussed when and how to reopen, the advantages and risks of education technology, the importance of the arts and public culture, disaster preparedness, and the virtues of horror movies. Len Gutkin: The president of Brown University, Christina Paxson, wrote an op- ed in The New York Times arguing that Brown and colleges like it need to be able to reopen in the fall. Is Bard going to open? Is Pomona? If so, what kind of opening will it be? Leon Botstein: Yes. I think that we are going to open, and we’re going to open on schedule. The question of what kind of opening it will be is really dependent on federal, local, and state regulations. That’s hard to tell from here. Places like Pomona and ourselves are in a terrifically privileged position because they’re small. We’re not giant tankers trying to move around. We have an obligation to be in the leadership of restoring public culture, and education is part of that public culture.

  • January 17, 2019 Dear Writer/Publicist: I Invite You to Enter
    Great Lakes Colleges Association 535 West William, Suite 301 Ann Arbor, Michigan 48103 U.S.A. PHONE: 734.661.2350 FAX: 734.661.2349 www.glca.org January 17, 2019 Dear Writer/Publicist: I invite you to enter the Great Lakes Colleges Association (GLCA) New Writers Awards (NWA) 2020 competition for poetry, fiction, and creative non-fiction. In each category, the submitted work must be an author’s first published volume. For this year’s competition the GLCA will accept entries that bear a publication imprint of 2018 or 2019. Winning writers are announced in January 2020. For the 50th year this group of thirteen independent Midwestern colleges will confer recognition on a volume of writing in each of three literary genres: poetry, fiction, and creative non-fiction. Publishers submit works on behalf of their authors; the key criterion for this award is that any work submitted must be an author’s first-published volume in the genre. All entries must be written in English and published in the United States or Canada. Judges of the New Writers Award are professors of literature and creative writing at GLCA member colleges. The winning authors tour several of GLCA’s member colleges from which they receive invitations, giving readings, lecturing, visiting classes, conducting workshops, and publicizing their books. Because of this provision of the award, all writers must live in the U.S. or Canada. Each writer receives an honorarium of at least $500 from each college visited, as well as travel expenses, hotel accommodations, and hospitality. By accepting the award the winner is committed to visit member colleges that extend invitations.
