[Alumni-chat] Remarks by Dan Kaplin

[Robert Abrams]

In the alumni newsletter of the winter of '02 Dan wrote, in part, the following:      "At the center of Antioch University, the touchstone for every campus, is Antioch College. There is no Antioch without it and everyone in the University knows that. Everyone in the University knows that in some ways they are the planets and the College is the sun. Every member of the Antioch University family wants the College to be thriving, to be vital, to be here in another 150 years." The Trustees do not seem to be aware of his sentiments, which are as true today as when they were written. If Antioch College is left to wither on the vine, the planets will not be far behind. The efforts by the alumni to revive the college should be recognized and encouraged by the BOT. If not, there is a great risk of demise of the whole system. I hope that they read this post before the meeting with the alumni BOT.   Bob '50
