Wt',t vet'j Welcome Williams ~ppt,,,· ~ bt. <1fll11d New president should bring own -to QSIC ll$ 'l~o'(I, personality to Ithaca College President Peggy Ryan Williams. The selection of Peggy Williams just one week ago brings an end to this long, tiresome and seriously flawed presidential search. Whatever our problems, concerns or differences are, we should put them aside and focus instead on welcoming Williams to Ithaca College. Although Williams was criticized for having little fundraising experi­ ence and for coming from a small school, she will need our help to make her adjustment as smooth as possible. However, Williams put it best when she said to an Ithacan reporter on Thursday, "You do not move in to a new job because it's the same one you had. For people to think there will not be a challenge is pretty silly." It is sure to be a whirlwind summer for Williams-she has less than two months to fully move in and begin getting to know Ithaca College. But already, many of us are wondering what changes a new president will bring. Will "Wheaties with Whalen" transform into "Pancakes with Peggy?" Will the end of Turtle Bridge speeches lead to some other New England nature story year after year? Although Williams initially was unsure if she wanted to "make her i!=i•i3;fl mark" on the College, The Ithacan encourages her to develop her own personality here. Every College president has made some signifi­ cant contribution or left some story or landmark to be passed down Search complaint relied on through the years. Williams should not simply let being the first female president at Ithaca College dictate her "fame." For years Ithaca College has been known as an institution that has not been particulary sensitive to faculty and student needs-most­ personal attacks, sexism ly because of the effects of downsizing, but also as·a result of the hier­ archy Whalen instituted. This is where Williams can further develop the school. Being available for the College community is just a beginning.

"I wanted to show a contrast between youth and what you are told about religion and real life when you get older and begin to make decisions about your own spirituality," Madden said. The steel structure Amy has created took her a month to put together. She started with a single steel rod for each person and used a tool known as the electric arch that emits a small melted rod of steel and attaches it to the sculpture. The women arc intricately detailed and seem to dance in jubilation over their creation. For a few moments, Madden has been standing in the general vicinity of Dave Slurzberg '97, who has contributed two sculptures to the exhibit. In a tiny corner all to itself sits Slurzberg's sculpture of a woman's torso, complete with the projection of sono­ gram and the recording of fetal breathing. As Slurzbcrg finishes explaining his works, the crowd begins to dwindle. Women in flowered dresses and men with sharp green hair file out of the heavy Gannett Center doors.
