    To Be a Man Gina Wohlsdorf Charlottesville, Virginia Bachelor of Arts, Tulane University, 2003 A thesis presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in candidacy for the degree of Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing Department of English University of Virginia December, 2013 ii © 2013 Gina Wohlsdorf 1 BASIC ECONOMICS Your children probably aren’t dead. That was the gist of the cops’ information. “We don’t have a clear understanding of the situation at this time,” said Sergeant Kennison. “You know what we know. Try to be patient.” The shooting started at one o’clock. Word spreads fast in the suburbs, especially when every teenager who’s any teenager owns a cell phone. The police set up a check- point at an old folk’s home that specialized in Alzheimer’s – beautiful facility with a top- flight staff. They set cookies, coffee and a jug of juice by a wide view of rolling hills. We ignored the snacks. We looked at a hill. Two-hundred yards away, red and blue lights flashed in front of a glass house. I asked Sadie once why Horizon High had so many windows. “It’s a cost savings measure,” she told me. “Sunlight reduces the electric bill.” Her lopsided smile slammed through my memories like a pickaxe. “But you’re asking an Econ teacher. If you’d married Miss Gilbert in Art, she’d have told you they’re ravishing.” One o’clock was fifth period, which Sadie had free. Her turn for hall patrol in Wing E: no smoking in the boy’s room, no loitering.

  • Our County, Our Story; Portage County, Wisconsin
    Our County Our Story PORTAGE COUNTY WISCONSIN BY Malcolm Rosholt Charles M. White Memorial Public LibrarJ PORTAGE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS STEVENS POINT, \VISCONSIN 1959 Copyright, 1959, by the PORTAGE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS PRINTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AT WORZALLA PUBLISHING COMPANY STEVENS POINT, WISCONSIN FOREWORD With the approach of the first frost in Portage County the leaves begin to fall from the white birch and the poplar trees. Shortly the basswood turns yellow and the elm tree takes on a reddish hue. The real glory of autumn begins in October when the maples, as if blushing in modesty, turn to gold and crimson, and the entire forest around is aflame with color set off against deeper shades of evergreens and newly-planted Christmas trees. To me this is the most beautiful season of the year. But it is not of her beauty only that I write, but of her colorful past, for Portage County is already rich in history and legend. And I share, in part, at least, the conviction of Margaret Fuller who wrote more than a century ago that "not one seed from the past" should be lost. Some may wonder why I include the names listed in the first tax rolls. It is part of my purpose to anchor these names in our history because, if for no other reas­ on, they were here first and there can never be another first. The spellings of names and places follow the spellings in the documents as far as legibility permits. Some no doubt are incorrect in the original entry, but the major­ ity were probably correct and since have changed, which makes the original entry a matter of historic significance.

  • Lehigh University
    Lehigh University Keeping Going with Music As in high school, and at RPI, what held me together, what kept me going, was music. “With- out music, life would be a mistake,” Nietzsche said, although I didn’t come across those words of his until many years later. When I see the young losers on Telegraph Ave. in Berkeley listening to their rap and rock ’n roll, or strumming away at their out-of-tune guitars, I know that they, too, are keeping going with music. On cold, empty, fall and winter days, when things became truly unbearable, I would go to the music room in Grace Hall, and listen to LPs through headphones. The room had soft chairs, couches, and was seldom occupied by more than two or three other students. I could listen to the records I couldn’t afford to buy. I listened to Renaissance music, any music that was not of the wretched time I was living in. I listened to an album containing the music of Giles Farnaby, an early 17th-century English composer. I thought that his “A Toye” was in its way a perfect compo- sition. And a work with a haunting, descending harp part that expressed an evening in another world — I have never been able to find the title or the composer, though I will recognize the music immediately when I next hear it. And Bach’s Capriccio on the Departure of His Beloved Brother, composed in Bach’s teens. I liked the sadness, the farewell in it. And Thomas Tallis’ Lamentations of Jeremiah the Prophet1 [“Quomodo sedet sola civitas plena populo...” (“How the city doth sit solitary, that was full of people!”)].
