BAUMGARTE EARNS RESEARCH PRIZE

rofessor of Physics Thomas Baumgarte won a Friedrich P Wilhelm Bessel research prize from Germany’s Humboldt Foundation. To be eligible for the award, scientists and schol- ars who are internationally renowned in their field must have completed their doctorates within the last 18 years, and are expected to continue producing cutting-edge achievements that will have a seminal influence on their discipline beyond their immediate field of work. Winners are honored for their outstanding research record and invited to spend a period of up to one year cooperating on a long-term research project with specialist colleagues at a research institution in Germany. “Being in Munich for a year will be an adventure for the whole family, but for me it will also be a homecoming of sorts, since I was a student in Munich and at the Max-Planck- Institute for Astrophysics 20 years ago,” says Baumgarte, who’ll be working with fellow researchers on problems in relativistic astrophysics.

NESSA REIFSNYDER ’86 B-FG-AG I have NO idea why I still remember my M.U. combination, but I do. Best thing I ever got in the mail was a check from my mom that had a Post-It attached: “Don’t spend it all on Mallomars.”

LINDA CORSETTI CARNEVALE ’85 I received a letter from my dad EVERY SINGLE DAY of college. If my mailbox was empty one day, there’d be 2 envelopes the next day. The guy never missed a day in 4 years! Most devoted father on the planet. RIP, Dad!

It is a scene of almost 19th century industrial enterprise, but where the old Brunswick mill once manufactured textiles, shoes, and brushes, it now houses antique shops, stor- age lockers, offices, cafés, galleries, and art- ist studios.

It is still very rare to see a house on the river, so one usu- ally has the experience when floating it of being far from civilization. There is a stretch just a few miles upriver from downtown Brunswick that probably looks as it did a thou- sand years ago. It’s gorgeous, and there are a lot of sizeable fish in there.” Lord first shared his enthusiasm for the Androscoggin with Klingle and Kolster by launching them from Great Falls in gritty downtown Lewiston and floating downriver with them. Klingle experienced a bit of an ichthyologic epiphany on that trip, one he records in his first essay for “A River Lost & Found:” I wipe my hands off and look up at the storm sewer pipe tra- versing the top of the canal channel, draped in greenery, then out across the river as Mike hooks another bass.

ing downstream, newly alive, ready to fish a river I can no longer see as dead. Funded in part by a Rusack Coastal Studies Grant, the Klingle-Kolster Androscoggin collaboration got seri- ous when both went on academic leave for 2011-12. To acquire the interviewing skills they felt they would need, they used some of the grant money to attend a Maine Folklife Center course on collecting oral histories. While Klingle and Kolster envision a book and would love a PBS special, the primary expression of their work to date is a one presentation-in-progress that combines excerpts from the interviews they have been conducting with video footage of the river and Kolster’s photographs. One distinctive feature of their Androscoggin video is that the speakers are neither pictured nor identified. They are just voices speaking for the river. “We wanted to keep everyone at the same level. It’s an equalizer,” says Kolster, noting that an archival inter- view with Senator Edmund Muskie, author of the Clean Water Act, carries no more weight than the words of Androscoggin River Alliance director Neil Ward, former Maine Rivers director Naomi Shalit, or Bowdoin Professor of Biology and Chemistry Emeritus Tom Settlemire, to name a few of the interviewees. Klingle says the pair wanted to avoid the “Ken Burns Effect,” the documentary technique of interspersing talking head authorities with panning and zooming shots of still photographs. “Ken Burns’s style is highly didactic and highly deter- mined,” explains Klingle. “There’s that stentorian voice and the panning in and out. That documentary effect does not open up conversation. One of the most polarizing things in the environmental movement is the adherence to

but courses that look at film as a language and a medium,” said Aviva Briefel, associate professor of English and film studies, who, along with Asian Studies associate professor Shu-chin Tsui, now has a joint appointment in the new film studies program. Briefel has been teaching one film course each semester since she came to Bowdoin in 2000. “I try to teach students to look at ways that texts tell stories or convey meanings,” she said. “Students are often introduced to film before literature, and they don’t think of film as having a language of its own, its own narrative. “There is still that sense that films are less of an art form,” she said. “People are taught to watch passively, but I want them to become active viewers, for watching a movie to be almost as active as reading a book.” Welsch has for years maintained a list of film courses offered in other departments for students interested in completing a minor in film studies. She, like Kaster before her, has been the sole clearinghouse of information about film on cam- pus. That will change with the interdisciplinary program. “The question was how to help students and faculty take advantage of wonderful resources dispersed across the curriculum,” said Cristle Collins Judd, dean for academic affairs. “We’re now thinking collectively about the film cur- riculum in exciting ways. Students can come to Bowdoin and engage seriously in film stud- ies from a variety of historical, theoretical, and international perspectives.” The three film studies faculty members “are now a for- mal affiliation, concerned with the growth and progress of

This is an unequivocally good thing. The new program will make film studies more visible and help us capitalize on the work we’re already doing.”

The filmmaking aspect at present remains in the hands of students. While many say they wish that Bowdoin offered classes in filmmaking, or that film studies could be taken as a major and not just a minor, that doesn’t seem to be holding them back.

Despite their love of film, Binswanger and Shuck – both history majors – made a conscious decision not to enroll in film school as undergrads. “I’m a little glad there wasn’t a film major here because I didn’t want to pigeonhole myself at eighteen,” Shuck said. “I wouldn’t have the critical thinking skills you get with a history background.

ichael Oxton ’07 looks tired. It’s just pushing past 6:30 on a Tuesday evening in late August, and the 27-year-old beer brewer has the look of a man who could Mprobably use a little sleep. “It’s been a long day,” he confesses. That it has. Over the course of what will end up being a 13-hour work session, Oxton and his business partner, Mike O’Mara, have presided over two brew- ing sessions that have produced some 200 gallons of new beer. It’s methodical work that involves mashing in the grains, boil- ing the liquid, and adding in supplemental ingredients. And yes, in terms of volume it’s not Anheuser-Busch, but then, that’s sort of the point. Oxton, O’Mara, and another Bowdoin grad, Rob Burns ’07, are the co-founders of Night Shift Brewing, a nanobrewery launched in early March 2012. In the months since the company launched, Night Shift has drawn adula- tion from a cadre of Boston beer critics, including Boston Globe blogger, Gary Dzen. More importantly, they’ve developed a dedicated customer base of connoisseurs who don’t think twice about shelling out $13 for a 750-milliliter bottle of beer. The reason has a lot to do with what Nigh Shift repre- sents. Beyond just the general scrappiness that defines any new business venture, the brewery is built around the idea With careful research, many a long night brewing batches of beer, and finally a leap of faith, a new business is born. that a good beer is something to savor, like a fine wine or a good cheese. Since its start the company has quietly and quickly developed a reputation for producing a lineup of unique craft beers whose ingredients range from

habanero pepper to dark chocolate to hibiscus flowers. “The best thing we hear someone say after they’ve had one of our beers is, ‘wow, I’ve never tasted anything like that before’,” Burns explains. But that takes time. It takes experimentation. It takes some failure. And it takes a high number of long brew days, like today. Oxton, whose tall, athletic frame is decked out in a yeast stained t-shirt, shorts, and a pair of aqua-colored rubber gloves, “From the get-go we didn’t want to brew anything we could easily get ourselves. We wanted to make something that was different and not available.” loops around the brewery, an efficiently packed space of boxes of bottles, five-gallon buckets, and a beefy rack stuffed with bags of different grains. Anchoring the scene are three of what Night Shift calls its “brew crew,” volunteers who come in on brew days to help with the work in return for the chance to learn a little more about the craft of making beer and to secure some free samples. “They make my life a lot easier,” Oxton cracks. “It’s worth it!” pipes in one of the crewmembers, a 28-old Verizon Wireless tech who’s washing out returned bottles. Despite his obvious fatigue, Oxton perks up when it comes to the business of evaluating the day’s accomplishments. Shedding the gloves, he picks up a clipboard and examines his brew sheet, a dense outline of information that details the makeup of the day’s last brew, a light-colored sour ale called Somer Weisse. It’s infused with lemongrass and ginger, and it’s the company’s the best seller. In particular, Oxton is focused on the beer’s hydrometer reading, which informs him of the liquid’s initial sugar con- tent, what beer makers call “starting gravity.” The difference between that number and the beer’s “final gravity,” calculated after fermentation, gives the alcohol content. The amount of from Yardley, Pennsylvania, met freshman year at Bowdoin and sugar also reveals the beer’s density. The more sugars there are quickly became friends. in the liquid, the heavier the beer. Which is to say that in the Their bond was established in part over a passion for food and precise and temperamental science that is beer making, an off cooking. Eventually, beer entered the equation as well. During starting gravity can doom a whole batch and several hours of his senior year, Burns, a computer science major, picked up his work.

Today, Night Shift has expanded its lineup to six beers, which are sold at 50 different liquor stores and bars throughout Boston. Pay the brewery a visit in the morn- ing, and you might catch a glimpse of Oxton and O’Mara loading up the company car, Burns’s Subaru Outback, with product for a delivery run. By no means is Night Shift making anyone rich, but the brewery is doing well enough that Oxton and O’Mara work at it full-time and draw modest salaries. (Burns is still employed as a computer programmer, and works at the brewery at night.) Demand for their beer has reached the point that Oxton has held off on adding to the account list until Night Shift completes its plans for expansion. By the middle of next year the brewery will have a revamped facility and a larger system that will allow Night Shift to go from being able to brew 400 barrels a year, to nearly 5,000. “We thought we might be here in two or three years,” says Burns. “It’s definitely a good thing, but we’re a little unprepared for it. We put so much time and thought into the business plan and then it went right out the window. But in the right direction.”

CRAFTING BEER Passion for beer and beer making go back centuries. The oldest known barley beer, dating to 3400 B.C., was dis- covered in Iran’s Zagros Mountains, and beer was recov- ered from King Midas’s 700 B.C. tomb. Even the Egyptian pyramids owe their creation, in part, to the stuff, as work- ers practically relied on it for nutrition and refreshment, not to mention pay, after a day of hard labor. In the 20th century, big American lager makers came to dominate the industry and American taste buds. But over the last few decades, smaller, craft brewers have started to make inroads in the $96-billion-a-year beer market. The growing interest by Americans in expanding their palates in everything from chocolate to cheese to coffee has also made an impact at the local liquor store. Even as overall beer sales have dipped in recent years, smaller brewers have seen an increase in profits. And as their sales have ticked up, so has the number of new beer makers. In 2011 alone, there were 250 new craft breweries

One their most popular, Bee Tea, came from Burns’s own love for green tee and honey, the two ingredients which define the beer’s flavor. Somer Weiss, its biggest seller, was born from a love of Thai food and a particular fascination with lemon grass and ginger. “We’re constantly evaluating flavors,” explains, O’Mara. It’s easy to chalk this story up as just another tale about three young men with a love for beer. But the truth is their passion for what they do extends far beyond the simple end product. There’s a commitment to craftsmanship that emanates from each of the three owners when they talk about what they do. Yes, they can delve deep into the science of craft brew- ing—the different strains of yeast, the mix of grains, and how it’s their preference not to actually filter their beers. But they’ll just as soon break into bigger picture stuff, about hard work, beer making’s required delayed gratification, and how ultimate- ly, it’s an important creative outlet.

Research a Great Retirement

Former Washington DC area residents who own a summer farmhouse in Waldoboro, Carolyn Bryant and Don Sarles bought a cottage at Thornton Oaks in early 2010 as their winter home.

Carolyn says “Bowdoin College provides a fi ne library that I can use for musicological research (though offi cially retired, I’ve continued editing and writing for Oxford University Press). The local public library has also been extremely helpful in fi nding abstruse journals and scholarly books for me.” Don, a long-time choral singer, has joined an excellent choir.

“We especially appreciate the strong sense of community at Thornton Oaks. We have formed close friendships and feel very much at home.”

Klaus Lanzinger “studied history, English, and American literature at the `TVSJMPI` university of Innsbruck, Austria, from 1948-52, with one year in between at Bowdoin. As a Fulbright student from Austria, I was admitted to Bowdoin as a foreign student scholar for the academic year 1950-51. As I was given credit for my previous studies, I could enter Bowdoin as a senior. I graduated from Bowdoin with a BA cum laude in June 1951. Bowdoin means a great deal to me. I have always regarded the year at Bowdoin as one of the most significant events in my life. Bowdoin College gave me the opportunity to pursue an international academic career on both sides of the Atlantic. At Bowdoin I was introduced to the writings of Longfellow, Hawthorne, and Herman Melville, who became the center of my research and publications. It culminated in the book Jason’s voyage: The Search for the Old World in American Literature (1989) with separate chapters on these great American writers, examining their relationship to the Old World or Europe.

James Simon ’92 E6N>C<>I;DGL6G9

Jim Simon says the minute he first visited the Bowdoin campus he knew he wanted to attend the College. Several years after graduating with a degree in Asian studies and government, he decided to “pay it forward” by including Bowdoin in his estate plans. He says, “It was a natural step. We all benefited from the generosity of alumni while we attended Bowdoin, and now I want to give back to the next generation.”

A consistent Bowdoin Alumni Fund donor and Reunion Committee volunteer, Jim knows the importance of giving back. Having served as a professional fundraiser for the University of Pennsylvania, The Dalton School, and New York University’s Stern School of Business, Jim didn’t think twice about making an unrestricted ?^bH^bdc¼.'^cXajYZY7dlYd^c^c]^hZhiViZeaVch bequest provision in support of Bowdoin’s highest WZXVjhZ]ZWZa^ZkZhi]Vii]ZgZl^aaValVnhWZVcZZY[dg priorities when he wrote his will. He adds: “It is a bdgZ[VXjainhjeedgiVcYhijYZciÄcVcX^VaV^Y# completely painless and easy thing to do.” h)TåWASåAåNATURALåSTEPå7EåALLåBENElTEDåFROMåTHEåGENEROSITYåOFåALUMNIåWHILEå ååååååWEåATTENDEDå"OWDOIN åANDåNOWå)åWANTåTOåGIVEåBACKåTOåTHEåNEXTåGENERATIONv

In time, Jim intends to increase his bequest to Bowdoin, since he knows there will always be a need for more faculty support and student financial aid. But for now, he has made his intentions clear. Bowdoin holds a warm spot in his heart, and he believes in giving back.

In his free time, Jim enjoys collecting contemporary art, traveling, and walking his dog, Bentley, and keeps in touch with his Alpha Delta Phi fraternity brothers from Bowdoin.
