  • LINE DRIVES the NATIONAL COLLEGIATE BASEBALL WRITERS NEWSLETTER (Volume 46, No
    LINE DRIVES THE NATIONAL COLLEGIATE BASEBALL WRITERS NEWSLETTER (Volume 46, No. 2, Apr. 24, 2007) The President’s Message By NCBWA President Michael “Mex” Carey Membership: It’s hard to believe that the baseball season is nearing conference tournament time. The season has been a great one so far and things are sure to get more exciting as we get closer to conference tournaments, the NCAA Regionals and the College World Series. A young Georgetown team in the Nation’s Capitol has struggled with some injuries, but the battle for supremacy in the BIG EAST, like many other conferences across the country, are still up for debate. At the same time, our heartfelt condolences go out to everyone at Virginia Tech after the senseless tragedy that unfolded on the Blacksburg campus recently. I was not the only one, I’m sure, who was horrified by the images and though immediately of our friends who work on the campus. Pete Hughes, one of the great coaches in college baseball who I got to know when he was at Boston College and I worked at St. John’s, said it right after the Hokies’ 11-9 loss to Miami in the team’s first game after the tragedy. “We won before we got to the field today. The scoreboard was insignificant.” The board members of the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association are in the process of selecting names for yearly awards. Last week, the final list for the Stopper of the Year Award will be announced and right behind that, we will have announcements for All-American nominees.

  • University of Arkansas at Little Rock History Department Newsletter Two
    University of Arkansas at Little Rock History Department Newsletter May 6, 2011—Editor, Edward M. Anson Two Senior Faculty Members Retire Fred Williams to Retire at the End of the Semester C. Fred Williams, Professor of History, joined the UALR History faculty in 1969. He was selected as Department Head in 1973 and became Chairperson in 1974, the latter position he held until 1980. During his term as Chair, Dr. Williams oversaw the greatest growth in the size of the department, hiring ten faculty members, most of whom either completed their academic careers at UALR or are still in the department. At UALR, Dr. Williams has worn many hats – Professor, as noted, head and chair of the History Department, Associate Dean of the then College of Liberal Arts, Associate Vice Chancellor for Educational Programs, President of the University Assembly and Senate, and even acting chair of the Department of International and Second Language Studies. He has long been one of the state’s leading advocates for Arkansas history, and is currently the Director of the University’s Center for Arkansas Studies and Editor of the Ledbetter Monograph Series on Arkansas Culture. It has been thanks to his support and encouragement that our department has been at the forefront of the study of the history of our state. Dr. Williams, along with colleagues like now retired S. Charles Bolton and current faculty Carl Moneyhon and John Kirk, have in their monographs brought much of our state’s history from the archives and personal remembrances to the community at large.
