Avis Senior Assistant Director of Admissions A proud Michigan native, Mackie Avis made his way to Kenyon to ma- jor in history, study Latin and Czech, and spend a semester abroad in Prague. A true scholar-athlete, he was distinguished on the playing field as a member of the men’s lacrosse team, serving as the team’s captain and lead goal scorer. Mackie and his positive experience at the College inspired his younger brother to join him in Gambier. While staff members in the Enrollment Division are always happy to enroll students whose connection to Kenyon is strengthened by a legacy, we were particularly glad to have more members of the Avis family on campus. Over time, Mackie’s incred- ible devotion to family has inspired us, developing in all a particular care for his clan and for our own. As a son, sibling, cousin, and friend, Mackie is loyal, steady, and fun. Of course, all of these traits have served him well in his work on behalf of the College and the students he inspires every day. Reliable Mackie can be counted on to bring diplomacy and a deft touch to his work as an athletics liaison, completing many hundreds of pre-reads each year.

OHIO WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY! !! 29 November 2012 Eugene Tobin, Program Officer for Higher Education Liberal Arts Colleges Program The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation 140 East 62nd Street New York, NY 10065 Re: Proposal Digital Collections: from Projects to Pedagogy and Scholarship from The Five Colleges of Ohio to the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation Dear Gene, Over the past three years, The Five Colleges of Ohio has been immersed in the Next Steps in the Next Generation Library grant. With the generous support of the Mellon Foundation, librarians, faculty, and students have produced 46 digitization projects. Based on our successful experience, we have developed a new grant proposal that strengthens and extends our digital initiatives and collaborations. The grant, Digital Collections: from Projects to Pedagogy and Scholarship, is composed of five key initiatives: • Continued development of curriculum-driven digital collections in partnership with students and faculty while expanding the scope of the projects whenever possible to include digital scholarship practices; • Hiring of a digital scholar who will leverage our new collections development, support digital scholarship efforts, and engage our campus communities in related considerations of pedagogy, along with funding to outsource open-source programming and purchase software/hardware related to digital scholarship projects; • Additional efforts to capture and provide open access to student and faculty scholarship; • Continued professional staff development and collaboration within and across the Ohio Five library organizations to best support the needs of faculty researchers; and • The creation of new collaborations with similar institutions, particularly those focused upon the digital humanities, and broad dissemination of the products and processes developed under the grant.

Anci Vice President for Enrollment Management and Dean of Admissions The most critical resource for Kenyon is its students, and it is a resource that must be renewed each year. They come from all over the nation and all over the world, but they do not arrive spontaneously; the enrollment of a class is the product of an intentional process, guided by data and analysis but executed with heart and personal touch. And Diane stewards it all, feeling as comfortable in the worlds of databases and matrices as she is in the efforts of building strong personal connections with people (in individuals or groups). She works with intense energy, creativity, and urgency, all the time keeping institutional priorities, market pressures, and the needs of individual students all within her view. The grind of the admissions cycle can be relentless (the next recruitment season begins even before the current season concludes), but it never seems to grind Diane down. Each new year brings new challenges, and she is always prepared to take them on. And as a result, Kenyon moves forward, stronger each year. —Sean M. Decatur, president Jennifer C. Anderson Custodian Jen Anderson is always happy-go-lucky, with a positive attitude and a gift for understanding.
