FALL 2020 5 CIRCUMSTANCEPOMP, AND PANDEMIC Tremendous thought and preparation preceded the hosting of an in-person Commencement ceremony for the Class of 2020, whose traditional rite of passage was postponed in May, while the College implemented distance education amid pandemic concerns. With health and safety as top priorities, Commencement was reimagined and hosted at Faught Stadium on Sunday, Oct. 11. Admission was limited to four guests per student, seating was distanced and face masks were required. With picture-perfect fall weather as the backdrop, there were 181 students recognized for earning bachelor’s or master’s degrees. Some were recognized in absentia, due to personal health restrictions or relocation to other parts of the country for grad school or career since the spring. The class of 2020 selected Melissa Beer ’20, who double majored in applied mathematics and quantitative analysis and now works for Lincoln Financial Group, as their speaker. “I am so extremely grateful to Franklin for giving us the opportunity that many graduates of 2020 did not have. We get that walk across the stage that brings closure to the four years of hard work during our collegiate careers,” Beer said in her address. “As graduates, we can vouch for the fact that one of the biggest lessons Franklin engrains in us as students is to be adaptable and resilient in an ever-changing society, and boy is our world ever-changing right now. But today is not about the challenges we faced. Instead, today is about celebrating all we accomplished. Because we did it. We made it to graduation!”

    Threshold and Process Carlos Jiménez Studio and the making of the Richard E. Peeler Art Center at DePauw University Threshold and Process Carlos Jiménez Studio and the making of the Richard E. Peeler Art Center at DePauw University FOREWORD Robert G. Bottoms ESSAY Mitchell B. Merback INTERVIEW Stephen Fox EDITOR Kaytie Johnson 1 © 2002, DePauw University Richard E. Peeler Art Center P.O. Box 37 Greencastle, Indiana 46135-0037 www.depauw.edu 2 Foreword The Richard Earl Peeler Art Center Dedicated October 11, 2002 he Richard Earl Peeler Art Center is a first for DePauw University. One hundred and twenty-five years ago, this institution (then known as Indiana Asbury University) engaged Elizabeth Adelaide Clark to offer instruction in the elements of drawing, in crayon, water T color and oil painting. After a century and more of teaching by distinguished scholars and creative artists, DePauw now has its first building specifically designed for this academic sphere. Gone are the days of adapted buildings, of advanced students doing their studio work in neighborhood houses, and faculty members having to rent or build their own studios. One of the most modern facilities ever created for the teaching and study of art, the Peeler Center offers adequate spaces for introductory classes, advanced student projects and faculty studios. The magnificence of the Peeler Art Center is due, in large part, to the careful design and development led by architect Carlos Jiménez. A faculty member at Rice University, Jiménez carefully considered the programmatic needs and wishful thinking of the faculty members of the Art Department.
