Adam II wants to have a serene inner character, a from the quiet but solid sense of right and wrong—not only to do good, but to be good. Adam II wants to love intimately, to sacrifice self in service to others, to live in obedience to some transcendent truth, to have a cohesive inner soul that honors creation and one’s own possibilities. WT’s Road to Character He goes on to explain that we have lost our cultural capacity to discuss and cultivate such qualities. This Last spring Kristen Klein, our Director of Upper led me to begin a conversation here at WT among my School, and Matt Bachner, our Upper School Dean of colleagues, wondering if I wouldn’t be perceived as an Students, presented each senior with a copy of David aging artifact. Quite the contrary! The discussion led to a Brooks’s book The Road to Character. Kristen and Matt’s preview of the book at our Senior Appreciation Assembly inspired me to pick it up. In the opening chapters, Brooks provides insight into how we have drifted from a society Never was there a time that seeks and lauds such qualities as humility, gratitude, when we needed more to and deference. Rather, today we gravitate toward self- enthusiastically embrace our promotion and even boastfulness. Brooks differentiates between our inclinations to accentuate our “resume founder’s command. character” from the selflessness embodied in what he calls “eulogy character.” There is much dialogue in the world of education chorus of concerns among our teachers and administra- about character development in schools.

Although we have had varying responses effort by two very different schools to more purposefully to the characters that Brooks depicts, apparently as cultivate character traits within their students—one models of Adam II, there seems to be unanimous support through a visual campaign throughout the buildings as for his overall thesis about our society’s waning, if not lost, well as a grading system, the other through a less systemic, capacity to cultivate or promote the redeeming benefits of more organic emphasis. a life lived in service to others. Some of the character traits emphasized in these Of course, this leads me to “Think Also of the schools could be components of Brooks’s resume Comfort and the Rights of Others.” I’ve always been character, traits that improve our performance and our struck by the realism of our founder’s mandate: that opportunities for success—not at all bad and certainly Miss Mitchell recognized the realities of taking care of worthy of distinction. ourselves, but also her call to take care of others.

Restaurants, bars, and shops, the social heart of our local communities, cannot afford 25 percent tariffs on European food and drink products and cannot recover with them in place. Our industry needs the tariffs to end immediately. Tariffs hurt many industries, but they hurt the hospitality industry most. As the crisis facing our industry deepens, the urgency of tariff relief grows. Our formula for survival through this economic crisis is simple: for each customer, we need to maximize sales of profit drivers like wine by the glass, and minimize the cost of inputs like cheese, olive oil, meat, and other food. These expensive tariffs make that impossible. We are gravely concerned that existing and proposed support programs do not, or will not, provide relief of the restaurant tariffs. We are also concerned that given the uncertain prospects for bilateral negotiations between the United States and the European Union, tariff relief may not come until well into 2021, or later. In place for over a year, the restaurant tariffs have in no way pressured the European Union to end its aircraft subsidies, yet the United States has kept these tariffs in place through the greatest crisis our industry has ever faced.

We are delighted to say that at this point six individuals and three private founda- tions have earned the right to claim a letter. Their choices have been A, C, D, F, G, J, R, S, and T. While most friends of DARE are not in a posi- tion to give at that level, many donors have given generously either to the Dictionary of American Regional English Fund or the Frederic G. Cassidy DARE Fund (which was established after his death in 2000). Last spring at a meeting of the DARE Board of Visitors, Development Director Jon Sorenson announced that the Frederic G. Cassidy DARE Fund had topped the $100,000 mark! With that goal having been reached, the members of The Heart of Ohio the Board voted to adopt a letter in Fred’s honor.
