Boarding News Archives February 3, 2004 Winter weather and numerous athletic contests necessitated dormitory activities that were local this past weekend. Friday night, students watched a basketball game on campus and then headed out to St. Clairsville, Ohio to watch a late movie. But several boarding students and boarding department faculty spent the evening in a much colder place. Dormitory students Sam A. Morgan Wann Jack Waddell. and Gene T., along with some day students, participated in an overnight camping trip at the Linsly Outdoor Center. Mr. DiOrio and Mr. Kutrovac along with L.O.C. director Mr. Hasis and crew chaperoned the Outdoor Adventure Club outing. Students arrived Friday evening, hiked to a perfect nearby camping location, and set up camp under a beautiful moonlight-filled sky. After cooking dinner, students spent the rest of the evening playing cards, telling jokes and stories, and enjoying the company of each other. The following morning, students crawled out of their snow-covered tents to a warm breakfast of oatmeal, bagels, and hot chocolate. After eating, campers packed up their belongings, took down their tents, and headed back to the L.O.C. campus. Students spent the remainder of the morning and early afternoon sled riding and playing ultimate Frisbee. As the trip ended, exhaustion was evident on the students’ faces as a result of the many fun-filled activities of the weekend. Despite their exhaustion, all agreed in the enjoyment of the trip.

Lloyd Bailey, the last founding director of Pax World Balanced Fund remaining on the Fund's board, died January 23 at the age of 82. Bailey was born into a Quaker family in Ohio, and the Quaker principles of pacifism and respect for each individual formed the moral and ethical foundation of his professional, personal, and family lives. He devoted his life to fighting, in a gentle but firm way, for peace and nonviolence between countries and among individuals. Bailey spent his childhood and teen years on the family farm and attended secondary school at a Quaker boarding school near his home, where he found one of two teachers who lifted his vision far beyond the Midwest. "I had two teachers, one in high school and one in college," he recalled in a 1994 interview with Connection, "who had gotten their doctorate degrees in Geneva, Switzerland. They were excellent teachers, and they inspired me." After teaching high school for three years, Bailey began to pursue the wider interests sparked by his teachers. He attended law school at Temple University in Philadelphia, and in 1946 he was hired as assistant director of the Friends Committee on National Legislation in Washington, D.C.

Interrelated programs in the Department of English bring together teaching assistants new to instructing college classes and experienced high school teachers for a year of shared learning and instructing. Each year, several dozen teaching assistants-master's and doctoral degree candidates-assist the department by teaching first year English composition courses. They are prepared for their tasks by a several-pronged approach, including a three-day orientation; several teacher training courses, supervision by Mara Holt , associate professor of English, and director of composition; and mentoring by visiting high school teachers. The high school teachers are selected during spring quarter to spend the following year enriching their backgrounds with college courses, mentoring the teaching assistants, and teaching college first-year composition. (See related story, page 6.) The first day Kai Pearson stood up to instruct a class of first-year composition students his knees were shaking. "It was terrifying," said Mr. Pearson, a master's degree candidate in English. "But it went more smoothly than I expected it to. It was fall quarter, at eight o'clock in the morning, so it was the first class those students had ever had at the university. They were probably at least as scared as I was. Dr. Holt had a pretty heavily structured first few weeks for us, complete with a syllabus-right down to 'walk in, introduce yourself, write your name on the board.' For the first three weeks of the course every minute of the class was outlined and we could follow that if we wanted to. As the course progressed, we were given more freedom to adapt our own ideas."
