“His horizons were focused fairly narrowly when he came to UT,” says Dr. Richard Piper, director of the Honors Program from 1996 to 2008. “He was a good student, but one who had felt somewhat unappreciated. and I think he’s really flourished in the honors program. I’ve seen a development of self confidence, a development of broader goals, and a more sophisticated understanding of himself and his potential.” The Honors Program has been offering opportuni- ties to students like Connally for 26 years, and today it is a much sought after program for incoming students. Students are chosen from the incoming class by their GPas and SaT scores, and as the University has grown more selective, so has the Honors Program. admission requirements to the program have been raised five times since it started in 1982. The program has evolved from humble begin- nings, and it continues to provide opportunities for top UT students. This fall the University will offer 21 Honors courses, a far cry from the first four offered 26 years ago. Bold Beginnings nearly three decades ago, Tim O’Connor ’81 asked his English professor to teach a course with him over the summer. That professor was Dr. frank Gillen, Dana Professor of English and the editor of the Pinter Review. Gillen became the first director of the Honors Program at UT in 1986. “I was amazed at how good he was,” Gillen says of O’Connor. “There were a lot of other students like that, and I felt we needed some way of bringing those students together.” Out of Gillen’s experience, and others like it, the By robin roger Charlie Connally ‘09 hadn’t seen much beyond faculty at UT created an honors program.

In those early years, before there was an Oxford semester, Gillen and his late wife, Marie, took students to london. Now a University trustee, Joe Wessel ’95 went on one of those trips. He also worked for three years in the Honors Program Office. “It was such a privilege working for and traveling with frank,” Wessel says. “He truly was the architect of the program — he did everything from gaining “Challenging funding, designing courses, and recruiting and Mindsets” retaining students and faculty — all while teaching The theme of the and remaining the leading authority on Pinter.” Honors Program has four components, explored in attracting Top Talent successive years.

The list includes, most recently, the outstanding senior in biology and life sciences award from the College of Natural and Health Sciences. In her senior year, Ortega spearheaded a research assistantship concerning the exchange of parasites be- tween Cuban treefrogs, an invasive species to florida, and the native amphibians. Her presentation of the research earned her an award earlier this year from the florida academy of Sciences in Jacksonville, fl. “She’s just exceptional all around,” said Dr. Wayne Price, Dana Professor of Biology, who supported Ortega’s research. “There is no doubt that she is one of the best students I’ve had in class and as a research assistant in my more than 30 years of experience.” Upon receiving her degrees, Ortega plans to continue her research with Price while exploring the possibility of teaching high school-level chemistry classes.

Professor Bonds with heavy Metal cientific discovery is sometimes three parts preparation and one part serendipity. S That’s what Dr. Joseph laurino, professor of chemistry, found when he discovered a polymer that could be used to remove toxic materials from drinking water, save lives of people exposed to chemical contaminants, and make paint stay on bridges and other metal structures longer, all because it rapidly binds to heavy metal. laurino was working on the synthesis of a polymer-based cell membrane when he stumbled upon a compound that bound quickly with metals like lead, nickel, cadmium, silver and aluminum. Since it did not dissolve easily, it made it difficult to determine the structure of the compound. “admittedly, at first I was really annoyed, but then I realized its potential,” laurino said. Many applications soon came to mind, so laurino applied for a patent. One use for the polymer — poly(2-octadecyl Dr. Joseph Laurino works in the butanedioic acid) — could be to filter toxic metals out further characterizing the polymer’s effectiveness with lab with Zubair Ansari ’09 and Jason Kahn ’09. of water. lead and other heavy metal ions are usually cadmium, nickel, aluminum and silver. difficult to get out of water, but after stirring for only “It’s really exciting to work on something so 15 minutes, the potentially harmful metal binds to groundbreaking,” said Zubair ansari, who received the white powder.

Dear Editor, In your recent obituary for Mary Ann (Sampey) Yorkunas (Spring 2008), you referred to her having an unknown donor. I thought you might like to know the source’s name and origin, especially since the same source was able to help at least 10 deserving, high-achieving students. The source was an association was begun by my grandfather, Judge William Hunter, city attorney from 1896 to 1904, and chairman of the Hillsborough County Juvenile Board and its board of visitors, which oversaw the Letterthe edito tor detention home meant to keep young offenders out of jail. Disturbed by what he saw as a contributing factor — truancy from school — Judge learned from the boys that a main cause was lack of shoes, clothes, books and other school supplies. Judge established the association to provide monetary help for these youth to help them stay in school. At Judge’s death in 1935, my father, William Finlay Hunter, continued the work. With Dean Hale and then President Spalding, a system was set up for identifying several applicants who had excellent academic records but little chance at the few scholarships available that Depression year. My connection with Mary Ann is the lovely irony of this piece. We met at Tampa U when we were both cheerleaders. We became fast friends, and the ensuing sisterly connection has lasted. She and Al were my daughter’s godparents. As to why I never told her my father selected her and gave the money for her education: I did not know until long after we had left college. When I asked should I tell her, my wryly Irish father said only, “Would it make a difference now?” But now I can tell her son Pete that she may not have known but that the connection created by that gift has been life-enriching for both Mary Ann and me.

Students come from everywhere to go here . . . and from here, they can go anywhere.*

Last year was extraordinary as UT was buffeted by various challenges. We responded to a rapidly declining economy, to Llegislative attacks on the Florida Resident Access Grant and to many competitive, individual and personal challenges. Competition in higher education continues to accelerate at a time when college enrollment growth has slowed nationwide and the economy has weakened. But UT continues to thrive. This year we celebrated another record enrollment, bringing together a community representing 50 states and 100 countries. We started new programs and made numerous improvements to services, technology, facilities and other areas. Most of all, our students and our graduates are excelling. For example, 10 students presented papers at national, regional, and state conferences, and our students competed at the Regional American Collegiate Moot Court Association. This year’s group of 1,400 graduates reported a 94.2 percent success rate in their postgraduate plans, with a quarter of those planning to continue their educations in graduate school. Because of the UT educational experience, our graduates truly can — and do — go anywhere.

Some of the headlines in that issue relate to things of the past, such as religious emphasis Week, February graduations and the Spartan wrestling team, while “golf, Tennis Are now Under Way,” speaks of things to come.

72 ut journal fall 2008 73 Got A Lot on Your Plate?

aybe it’s time to simplify with a custom UT license plate. It doesn’t have as MM many numbers or letters to remember, and it looks better, too. It’s short, it’s sweet, it says a lot about who you are: You love UT, you like things that look cool on your car, you have trouble remembering your keys, let alone your plate number. (For an extra fee in addition to the $27 specialty plate fee, you can even make up your own.) Remember: At just $27 in addition to the regular tag fee, a University of Tampa specialty plate is an affordable, handsome and lasting tribute to any UT success, and every sale brings in $25 for your University. To learn how to get yours, call the alumni office at (813) 253-6209, or e-mail [email protected]. (Florida residents only)
