    Donors Making a Difference Daughters of Martha Sheeder Martha Sheeder graduated from the Baylor University Louise Herrington School of Nursing FastBacc® program in 2013. In remembrance of her life, her daughters Allison, Lindsay, Maury and Meredith, shared her story in a video that was shown at the 8th Annual Going for the Gold Gala this past spring. Below are some highlights from their touching sentiments about their mom. Smiling with heartfelt remembrance about her mom, Allison Sheeder said, “She was genuinely happy about everything. I think that happiness was infectious to everyone around her.” In May of 2012, Martha went back to school to complete the FastBacc® program at the Baylor University Louise Herrington School of Nursing (LHSON). The following February she was diagnosed with breast cancer. “After she graduated from the LHSON, she went back to Texas Oncology where she had actually gotten her infusions,” recalled her daughter Lindsay Sheeder Brown. “In fact, she started a tradition there now called ‘Martha’s Gong.’ Everyone that finishes their chemo treatment gets to ring the gong at the end. She had the opportunity to touch so many lives as a nurse,” recalls Meredith Sheeder. Then, in October of 2016, my sisters and I all got a phone call at about 11 p.m.,” shared Maury Sheeder. “Mom had been at dinner with her boyfriend and collapsed in the bathroom. She was rushed to the hospital. They did an MRI and quickly got the results back. The doctors put us all in a room together and explained that if there was white on the brain that it meant there was no brain activity.

    Forty Years “on the basis of sex”: Title IX, the “Female Athlete”, and the Political Construction of Sex and Gender A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Elizabeth Ann Sharrow IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Dara Z. Strolovitch August 2013 © Elizabeth Ann Sharrow 2013 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This project bears the subtle (and not-so-subtle) imprints of many relationships developed and forged during my tenure at the University of Minnesota. These relationships have inflected my work in a variety of dimensions and I have long anticipated acknowledging them here. The University of Minnesota was my home for fifteen years. First, I experienced it as an undergraduate, a period during which I discovered the sport of rowing. The Minnesota Athletic Department announced in the spring of my freshman year that women’s rowing—a sport I joined at the club level after arriving on campus—would become a varsity team in the fall of 2000. This decision was driven by efforts to comply with Title IX, and it would forever alter the course of my life. I wrote my summa thesis on the policy, and have Wendy Rahn, Jamie Druckman, and Barbara Welke to thank for cultivating my interest in policy and politics through their roles as advisors of my undergraduate research. My career in rowing, at first a means to make friends and community on a sprawling Big Ten campus, became increasingly central to my life as an undergraduate and I would go on to coach at Minnesota for five years after completing my B.A.

  • Handout #5 Gymnastics Champions Mary Lou Retton
    Handout #5 Gymnastics Champions Mary Lou Retton Mary Lou Retton was born in Fairmont, West Virginia in 1968. At a young age, she realized that she needed more rigorous training if she wanted to become an Olympic champion. Studying under Bela Karolyi, the coach who had trained Retton’s idol, Nadia Comaneci, she pursued the dream of becoming a gold medal gymnast. The hard work paid off when she became the first American to take home the gold in the women’s all-around competition. In addition, she was also the first American woman to win an Olympic gold medal in gymnas- tics. She is the only woman to capture three American Cups and the only American to win Japan’s Chunichi Cup, two U.S. Gymnastics Federation American Classics and the All-Around title at both the 1984 national championships and the Olympic trials. Retton’s five-medal performance made her the darling of the 1984 Games in Los Angeles. Her one gold of the five was the big one — the all-around, which she clinched by scoring perfect 10s in the floor exercise and vault. She won silvers in the team and vault competitions, and bronze medals on the uneven bars and in the floor exercise. Retton’s five Olympic medals place her in a tie for second place among all U.S. women on the all-time list. Mary Lou’s historic Olympic performances, along with her radiant smile and enthusiasm, brought her recognition as Sports Illustrated Magazine’s “Sportswoman of the Year” in 1984. That same year, the Associated Press awarded her the title “Amateur Athlete of the Year”.
