Lycoming's strong connection with Merck continues to be forged through the College's

summer research program. Lycoming is one of 1 undergraduate schools who have received a three-

year $60,000 grant from Merck to fund undergradu- ate research. This funding allows Lycoming to grant stipends

to students to engage in a variety of interdiscipli- nary research during the summer.

Having this research experience is absolutely

essential in getting into graduate school or into the best jobs in a company like Merck. Christy Olson recalls going through a seven-hour interview process. "The trend," says Christy "is that you have to have done undergraduate research

because that is basically what they ask you about

in the interview."

"The whole point of the summer program is to have students experience what chemistry research

If you hit a fly ball from ^RANDOLPH the David B. Sykes Gate at the corner of Little League Boulevard and Market Street, you could easily hit the Williamsport office of Parente Randolph, PC— the 30"^ largest accounting firm in the United States.

But the Lycoming ties are even closer than the two- block walk. One-third of the

32 accountants employed at the Williamsport office are Lycoming College grads. Even more have spent a portion of their careers here. One of the reasons for the high Lycoming College content of its employee roster is that the firm pro- vides at least one paid internship each year. An ongoing parade of Lycoming's best accounting students have started at Parente through the internship. Frank Brennan, principal and managing director of Parente's Williamsport office, likes Lycoming students. "They're well educated Name and well prepared," ob.serves Brennan. "But [Lycoming students] also have a work ethic that separates them from other candidates," says Brennan.

Although Brennan is not a Lycoming graduate, he keeps close to Lycoming's account- ing department through his input as a member of the Board of Visitors of the College's Institute for Management Studies.

"We use Parente in lots of ways," says Dick Wienecke '66 who, in addition to running his own accounting practice, is chair of Lycoming's accounting 5 " .

Martz Has Helped Hollidaysburg Grow

By Craig Williams Staff writer at the Altoona Mirror October 28. 2001

Quietly spoken, D. Stephen Martz's face becomes animated with a big smile when he talks about his hometown of Hollidaysburg.

He is the fourth generation to live in the borough with a picture-perfect main street reminiscent of a Norman Rockwell painting. His grandfather was a director of the local bank. After college, he started as a management trainee in the trust department of

Hollidaysburg Taist Co., and now, nearly 40 years later, he is still working on "The Diamond" in Hollidaysburg.

Martz's involvement with the community includes a list of civic involvements as long

as the banker's arm. It's obvious what talents he brings to a boardroom, becau.se in

talking to Martz one immediately is struck by his listening abilities, perfected after years as a loan officer and investment coun.selor.

It's those traits, he said, that are most useful as a mediator.

What he might be proudest of is the job the Hollidaysburg Community Partnership has done to revitalize the downtown. As chairman of that program. Martz said he was called upon to work with residents, business owners and grant sources, cobbling together an alliance and funding in a partnership aimed to preserve the historical intent of the borough.

"I helped to lead the group in obtaining state grants for the downtown store front program," he said. "Most recently, we have begun working on the Canal Basin Project and the soon to be Slinky Museum. It's all about building relationships. That's a very important part of community banking." Martz's efforts and those of the Partnership have garnered Hollidaysburg two state awards for progressive downtown develop-

ment. When asked if he felt the borough has changed much since he started at the bank in 1964, he said "only on the inside."

"We still have maintained the historical image, but it's changed in the businesses that are here now," he said. In the 1960's, a young Martz joined the bank fresh out of Lycoming College, Williamsport. At that time, the bank had three

offices and total assets of $ 1 3 million. Since then. Hollidaysburg Trust has grown to 1 locations with $3 1 2 million in total assets under the guidance of Martz and his staff. In the late 1990s, Omega Financial, with headquarters in State College, bought out the main offices and branches of Hollidaysburg Trust but allowed the community bank to operate under its local banner. Until recently. Martz also held the title of

Lorna Markham '81 Making Little Miracles By Sharon Rogers '02

Each day, Lorna Winner Marlvham '81, witnesses close to what we can call miracles. Whether

she is watching a one-year-old with Down's syndrome finally obtain the ability to crawl and sit up or

helping a young girl with cerebral palsy to walk, she takes part in a remarkable profession. "Assisting children with developmental disabilities can be one of the most gratifying experiences," Markham notes.

As a physical therapist and manager for five satellite locations of the Children's Healthcare of

Atlanta, Lorna Markham is quite busy. In addition to her managerial responsibilities, she is currently working on the design of a third outpatient center, and plans to do a fourth next year. However, she has refused to let a demanding workload keep her from her first love— pediatric therapy. Markham holds the distinction of being the only manager at the facility who still continues to treat her patients.

Children's Healthcare of Atlanta is one of the country's largest pediatric healthcare systems with 20 satellite facilities around the metro Atlanta area.

"RiteStart" is an early intervention program that provides therapy in a group setting for children from birth to three years of age with identified special needs. The program has grown rapidly, demanding the need for more up-to-date facilities. As manager, Markham has helped with the design and renovation of two metro Atlanta outpatient centers. The improved centers not only have more individual treatment rooms but provide parent support groups, different types of motivational tools for the children, as well as a rock-climbing wall for helping to rebuild muscle tone. Since junior high, Markham has always known that she wanted to work in pediatrics. At Lycoming College, she majored in biology and as a senior, volunteered as an athletic trainer.

"I haven't really worked in sports since," she says, "but I gained good experience by learning about muscle function, setting, and rehabilitation." In Williamsport, she worked in Lycoming Country with children with disabilities. The experience reinforced her desire for physical therapy. She obtained a second bachelor's degree of .science at Georgia State University. As she continues to meet the needs of sick and injured children, Markham not only develops relationships with her patients but becomes close with the families as well. ( oiinnucd on piii^c 29
