    U B KNIGHTLINES FALL 2010 A PUBLICATION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF BRIDGEPORT FALL 2010 Out of the Box For more than 40 years, Thomas Mezzanotte has taken breathtaking photographs with cameras dating back to the Civil War and equipment made from cardboard boxes. Just named “Artist of the Year” by the Fairfield Arts Council, UB’s maverick photography alum suddenly finds himself in everybody’s focus. ALSO INSIDE Remembering Manute Bol • Patching Up the Bluefish • UB’s Poet Laureate 1 President’s Line Dear Friends: As I walk through campus on these beautiful fall days, it gives me great pleasure to see so many familiar faces—upper-classmen, professors, and staff—and also the hundreds of new students who these days crowd the PedMall. More than 5,100 students from 80 nations have chosen UB as the place where they will enrich their minds, pursue their dreams, and forge friendships that will last a lifetime. Together, we make UB a truly vibrant and exciting community. The beginning of every academic year brings excitement, but in 2010-2011 we have several new initiatives and programs to celebrate. The Physician Assistant Institute and the Pre-Pharmacy partnership with the University of Connecticut have added energy to the already-lively Health Sciences Division. Even before their courses began, these two new programs had a waiting list of eager applicants. Students at the Shintaro Akatsu School of Design (SASD) will be opening a storefront in downtown Bridgeport, providing local businesses and individuals the opportunity to commission graphic design projects that will benefit the Neil Albert Salonen local business community as well as providing invaluable experience for our students.

That was 35 years ago. Now she’s just been named the state’s top restaurateur. How she and other UB alums went to work for themselves, hit it big, and never looked back. ALSO INSIDE • The 100-mile man • Carl Burton’s photos • UB helps Bridgeport win “Best City” award 1 President’s Line I am happy to present the Winter 2010 issue of Knightlines. Many of you have commented favorably on our updated format. We will continue to work on creating a magazine that will delight our alumni and friends — one that is attractive, readable, and filled with the kind of information about UB that will make you proud. The past year has been marked by our continued growth in academic excellence and renewed opportunity. Despite a very challenging climate for college admissions due to economic uncertainty, UB’s undergraduate enrollment actually has grown by 11 percent, bringing our total 2009-2010 enrollment to 5,103 students. This year’s students come from 80 countries and 44 states, but UB also remains a popular choice for home-grown talent: 57 percent of the student body is from Connecticut. UB’s future continues to be so bright for several good reasons. First, students feel the excitement, vitality, and sense of purpose in the atmosphere when they visit our campus — something we encourage all prospective students to do. Second, UB’s commitment to offering career-oriented programs on a solid grounding in the liberal arts is a strong selling point for today’s generation of focused, goal-oriented students.
