The Class of 1970 Fiftieth Reunion Book WESLEYAN 70 FIFTIETH REUNION | MAY 21–24, 2020 | WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY WESLEYAN 70 FIFTIETH REUNION | MAY 21–24, 2020 | WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY Dear Classmates, I have always felt lucky to have been at Wesleyan from 1966–1970. We were able to experience the conflict and change of those years in a safe environment that encouraged learning, arguing, and experimentation. So, when Kate Quigley Lynch asked me to edit our fiftieth reunion yearbook, I was happy to take the job. Ted Reed, a Wesleyan roommate and former Miami Herald reporter, agreed to be my partner in creating the book. Our goals were to let everybody know what our classmates have been doing for the past half century, to celebrate the lives of classmates who have died, and to honor the professors who were important to us. Additionally, we hoped that through preparing essays, compiling Argus stories, and chronicling outside events, we could help you remember not only our time on campus, but also the drama of the unique period when we were there. Jeff Sarles did a terrific job of finding, organizing, and writing captions for photos highlighting events happening in the outside world during our Wesleyan years. Much of this work is in the book. His full presentation is available on the class page (www.wesleyan.edu/classof1970) and will be played as a slide show during reunion weekend. John Sheffield, Maurice Hakim, and Jeremy Serwer read every Argus edition published during our time at Wesleyan and identified stories of interest. Many of you wrote heartfelt remembrances of classmates who died and others helped identify photos. Diana Diamond and Ted contributed essays. Kate Quigley Lynch and Beth Watrous of the alumni office helped with research and encouragement. Ellen Maurer, who has designed 50th Reunion yearbooks for fourteen Wesleyan classes, brought her talent, knowledge, and perspective to the project. We also used photos from the Class of ’70 Olla Podrida that Tony Balis skillfully put together a half century ago. —JOHN GRIFFIN PS. A last thought. The new class at Wesleyan, the class of 2023, is highlighted in Ted’s essay “Would We Even Get Into Wesleyan Today?” They are to us as we are to the class of 1917.

Fifty-four years ago, in the Would spring of 1966, Wesleyan admitted its first diversity class. We Even Get That was us. “Hoy’s Boys” we were called to honor then- Into Wesleyan admissions dean Jack Hoy. We actually weren’t that diverse. Of the 352 Today? admitted to our class, zero were women, while 33 were from minority groups, mostly black. Their inclusion was viewed as historic, the first step in By Ted Reed making prestigious New England colleges more open and more representative. Still, it’s hard to avoid recall- ing that most of us were white guys from New York, New Jersey, or Connecticut, along with a handful of Californians. Today, comparing board scores, class rank and diversity stats for the Class of 1970 with the same stats for the Class of 2023, you cannot help but conclude that many of us would be unqualified for today’s Wesleyan. It’s as if we were major league baseball players between 1901 and 1947, the period when all the players in the Negro Leagues were excluded. Amin Abdul-Malik Gonzalez, Wesleyan’s current dean of admissions, and “ It’s as if we were Robert Kirkpatrick, who succeeded Hoy in the position in 1969, both told me in November 2019 interviews that it’s impossible to tell whether we would be major league admitted today, given all the variables. Possibly they were just trying to be nice. baseball players “It is a true statement that competition for admission is more keen today than between 1901 it was then, but to bring that to an individual student is hard to do,” said Gon- zalez. “The landscape is different; the pool was different. It’s hard to change a n d 19 47, the variables so that you can weigh things identically.” the period when Gonzalez, a member of the Class of 1996, said he sometimes asks himself whether he would be admitted today. “It’s twice as hard as it was when I all the players came,” he said. “In 1992, when I applied, Wesleyan admitted 33%. This in the Negro year it’s only 16%.” Leagues were When I asked Kirkpatrick whether we would get in today, he responded, “I have no idea. The admissions world is unbelievably excluded.” different. It’s a much more complicated, much more aggressive kind of environment now than it was then. If you look at the racial, religious and socio-economic makeup now, it’s mind-bog- glingly different.” “The diversity of the undergraduate population is much more pronounced than it was,” he said. “The value of academics as primary criteria for admission is the same now as then, but within that, diversity plays a more important role. I would hope the overarching value of having students who could take advantage of opportunities would have put you at the admit level,”

From 1974 to 1984 he enjoyed a decade as Director of Academic Programs at the FOLGER SHAKESPEARE LIBRARY. In that capacity he redesigned and augmented the scope and appeal of SHAKESPEARE QUARTERLY, supervised the Library’s book-publishing operation, and orchestrated a period of dynamic growth in the FOLGER INSTITUTE, a center for advanced studies in the Renaissance whose outreach he extended and whose consortium grew under his guidance from five co-sponsoring universities to twenty-two, with Duke, Georgetown, Johns Hopkins, North Carolina, North Carolina State, Penn, Penn State, Princeton, Rutgers, Virginia, and Yale among the additions. During his time at the Folger, Mr. Andrews also raised more than four million dollars in grant funds and helped organize and promote the library’s multifaceted eight- city touring exhibition, SHAKESPEARE: THE GLOBE AND THE WORLD, which opened in San Francisco in October 1979 and proceeded to popular engagements in Kansas City, Pittsburgh, Dallas, Atlanta, New York, Los Angeles, and Washington. Between 1979 and 1985 Mr. Andrews chaired America’s National Advisory Panel for THE SHAKESPEARE PLAYS, the BBC/TIME-LIFE TELEVISION canon. He then became one of the creative principals for THE SHAKESPEARE HOUR, a fifteen-week, five-play PBS recasting of the original series, with brief documentary segments in each installment to illuminate key themes; these one-hour programs aired in the spring of 1986 with Walter Matthau as host and Morgan Bank and NEH as primary sponsors.

LaTrobe University, Melbourne espite the competitive nature of journalism, foreign D correspondents have found they have a need to come together around their common interests. Moreover correspondents reporting for a home audience often require a space where they can establish a common ground with officials and news sources, where news events are packaged specifically for the benefit of transmission overseas. Generally journalists also find that a place where they can be involved in an informal sharing of information, contacts and discussion of recent events is often essential in a country where they are unfamiliar with the language. For these reasons foreign correspondent clubs have become important sites for the correspondent to affirm and develop their professional identities. In Asia the first formal foreign correspondent clubs were established in Tokyo in 1945 and soon after in Hong Kong. The history of the clubs can be traced to the fact to ‘cantonments’ for journalists that were established in hotels or boarding houses during military operations a practice that continued in World War II in Asia particularly.
