he first work crews came with
the birds of spring this year. They
showed up one morning and bolted a
four-foot diameter, diamond blade
rotary saw 30 feet up on College
Center. There it was, a massive saw
mounted to a solid cement wall, blade
tip poised 90 degrees to the surface.At
the time, we didn’t know, but that
bizarre wall sculpture was a sign from
above telling us to find somewhere else
to be for the rest of the summer if we
knew what was good for us.
Sure enough, we found out the
next day that these guys meant business
when they fired that monster up.
Right through the solid cement wall
like — well — like steel ripping
through concrete it went, cutting the
first opening in a building that has
stood windowless for 30 years. But
that was only the beginning.
Next came demolition of a second
floor pedestrian bridge that crossed
over the campus quad. The rubble
filled the area below the president’s
administrative office suite, a section
four stories up that rests on long
columns down to the ground. All afternoon as they broke up the chunks with
pneumatic pavement smashers right
around the base of those columns, the
fourth floor conference room vibrated
rhythmically while we did our best to
go on with a meeting. There probably
were a few who prayed in a public
school building that day.
Work progressed on this campus
through the summer inside and out,
seemingly everywhere at once. Inside,
corridor walls were stripped and
papered, new carpet was laid, classrooms were painted. The library was
entirely renovated. Outside, earth was
moved, creating new vistas that made
this place look entirely different
overnight.As we approached the start
of class, the pace became more frantic.
And then suddenly it was finished.
And the students came — hundreds
more than the college has ever seen
walk through the doors the first week
of class.
But that’s just the first phase.All
this activity is the start of a three-year
campus renovation that is shaping up
as the most ambitious renewal since
the college’s founding. Cherry trees,
locusts, red maples, Japanese holly, yews
and flower beds will add a natural
touch and plenty of shade. A new quad
dotted with oversized redwood benches draws students, faculty and staff out
of the surrounding buildings to relax,
study and socialize in the airy space.
Next week, we hear, half a million
bricks will arrive for re-surfacing the
buildings. Drab, mildew-stained concrete will be transformed to look new.
The brick and stucco “skin” will
increase energy efficiency, adding
value even beyond the aesthetics.
We can’t wait.
The theme of this issue is
“Metamorphosis.” As dramatic as these
physical changes are, they only hint
at the adaptations we’re making in
education to prepare students for the
new career world out there. The
articles that follow look at some of
those changes.

Community Colleges Celebrate Their Centennial

ising SAT scores. High class ranks.A fine crop of National Merit Scholars.
These are bragging rights for many colleges that pride themselves on exclusivity.
Not so, community colleges. We boast of being inclusive. Our doors are open wide. Through them
pass honors students and high school dropouts, rich and poor, kids fresh out of school and classmates old enough
to be their grandparents, learners of every ethnic background imaginable — some whose families have lived in

the United States for generations, others
who just arrived.
We offer no apologies. Instead we
celebrate.
We take strength in our community.
We take pride in our diversity.
And the hopes we share,
And the dreams we dare,
Our unity, proclaims Northampton’s alma mater.
The celebration of community
colleges’ contributions to higher
education and to their communities —
and of their passionate commitment
to open access — took on national
significance in 2001 as the community
college movement marked its 100th
anniversary.
In 1901, classes began at the oldest
continuously operating public two-year
college in the country. The place was
not the East — home to many of this
nation’s oldest and most prestigious universities, but the Midwest. The motives
were not as democratic as you might
imagine.
Buoyed by the publicly-funded
grammar and secondary schools, populists did push to expand opportunities
for higher education, but they met with
resistance from professors wedded to
the European traditions on which
American universities were modeled.
Some faculty members held tight to the
British belief that universities should
focus on providing the upper classes
with a classical education that would
prepare them to lead; others favored the
German emphasis on research and engineering. Few professors clamored to
teach introductory-level courses.
In stepped William Rainey Harper.
A faculty member at Yale, Harper had
earned a reputation as one of the greatest classical and biblical scholars of his
time. When John D. Rockefeller decided
to finance the creation of the University
of Chicago — now one of the most
selective universities in the world —
Harper was named its first president.
Sympathetic to the concerns of university faculty, but also a strong support-

up with what today we would call a
‘new paradigm’ for education. “I have a
plan which I am persuaded will revolutionize University study in our country,”
he told Rockefeller.

Harper envisioned the University
of Chicago as a two-tiered system: a
network of free-standing lower colleges
would provide the first two years
of undergraduate education, freeing
university faculty to teach upper-level
courses in the senior division. To create
the feeder schools, Harper suggested
downsizing some four-year colleges to
focus only on the first two years of
study, creating new colleges with that
same mission, and encouraging some
high schools to expand their curricula
to include two years of advanced
coursework that would count toward a
college degree. The idea pleased both
the populists and the elitists.
Thus it came to pass that in 1901 a
school district in suburban Chicago
became the first to offer a two-year
“postdiploma” program. Later known as
Joliet Junior College, the school became
a prototype for others. By 1910 at least
13 six-year high schools and lower
division colleges had been founded.
Not only the University of Chicago,
but also the University of Illinois and
Northwestern University accepted their
graduates for transfer.
The concept of two-year colleges
spread rapidly to Missouri and then to
California where the state legislature
gave it a boost by passing an “Upward
Extension Law,” granting school districts
the right to “prescribe graduate courses
of study” to approximate the studies
prescribed in the first two years of
university courses. Like community
colleges of today, the first two-year
colleges in California offered vocational
and leisure training as well as courses
for transfer. The American Association
of Junior Colleges noted that two-year
colleges were “likely to develop a
curriculum, suited to the larger and
ever-changing civic, social and vocational needs of the entire community in
which the college is located.”
Although the growth of community
colleges slowed during World War I and
the recession that followed, it surged in
the 1920s as people migrated from
farms to small towns and cities and as
expansion of the automobile industry
and other forms of mass production
created more white collar and technical
jobs. The establishment of a two-year
college became a matter of civic pride
in many communities. Although expensive to build, the colleges produced
an excellent return on investment,
bringing jobs, attracting students from
the surrounding area, and expanding
the tax base. Chambers of commerce
often became among their most vocal
supporters.
By 1930, close to 70,000 students
were enrolled at two-year colleges.
Close to a third of them attended
schools in California and Texas. The
Northeast lagged far behind, perhaps
because it was home to so many small
liberal arts colleges. The same was true
of the South where the junior colleges
that did exist were private and churchrelated, often evolving from finishing
schools.
The Depression changed everything. Many families could barely afford
to feed their children, let alone to send
them to private colleges. As part of
Frankin D. Roosevelt’s “New Deal,” the
Federal Emergency Relief Administration
funded the creation of “emergency
junior colleges” across the country. The
Public Works Administration and the
Work Projects Administration financed
construction projects on many
campuses, and the National Youth
Administration created campus jobs for
students to enable them to stay in
school, laying the groundwork for
today’s work-study programs. By the
time the soup lines disappeared, nearly
10 percent of students attending college
in the United States were enrolled in
two-year colleges.
During World War II, these colleges
not only served students well, they
served the country well, rallying to
meet the
need for pilots, technicians, draftsmen,
mechanics, welders, radio operators, and
health care workers, creating accelerated degree programs for students who
were about to be drafted, opening their
facilities for military training programs,
and devising non-credit courses to
teach civilians how to plant victory
gardens and to support the war effort
in other ways. Many two-year college
students, alumni and faculty served on
active duty.
Some soldiers never came home.
Those who did flocked to colleges and
universities in record numbers with
their tuitions, fees and books paid for in
full by their grateful Uncle Sam under
new legislation known as the GI Bill.
For veterans seeking certain kinds of
career training, for those who didn’t
want to uproot their families, and for
those who realized they needed a
stronger academic foundation before
going on to a university, community
colleges were the colleges of choice.
Between 1944 and 1946, enrollment at two-year colleges doubled.
Most of that growth took place at
public institutions. Classrooms overflowed. The federal government
shipped thousands of Quonset huts
built for the Pacific Theater to college
campuses to accommodate the influx
of students. Community colleges
increased not only in size, but also in
numbers.
In some community colleges,
veterans comprised almost half of the
student body. Their needs differed from
those of their classmates. Some had not
finished high school. Others had study
skills that had grown very rusty. Many
had to juggle their studies with parttime jobs and family responsibilities.
Having made significant sacrifices for
their country, they were in a hurry to
get on with their lives. They expected,
and in some cases demanded, accelerated programs, credit for military experience, and programs tailored to their
particular circumstances.
Two-year colleges had always
focused on being responsive to individual needs. Veterans put that commitment to the test, preparing community
colleges for the challenges that lay
ahead in serving the homemakers, students from minority groups, immigrants,
senior citizens, people with disabilities,
and other first-generation college students who followed. By enabling so
many veterans to experience the benefits of a college education, the GI bill
triggered a significant shift in attitude
and expectation.Americans soon came
to view a college education as valuable
not just for a few, but for many.
In 1947, a commission appointed
by President Harry Truman called for an
aggressive initiative to increase the
number of two-year colleges, urging
the American people “to set as their
ultimate goal, an education system in
which at no level — high school, college, graduate school, or professional
school — will a qualified individual in
any part of the country encounter an
insuperable economic barrier to the
attainment of the kind of education suited to his aptitudes and interest.” It was
the Truman Commission that suggested
the term ‘community college’ be used to
describe colleges which have as their
“dominant feature intimate relations
with the life of the community [they]
serve.” Change came slowly, but the
phrase “junior college” gradually fell
into disuse.
But Pennsylvania lagged
behind. Because they could
not agree on what a
community college
should be, legislators here had consistently voted down bills to establish
community colleges since 1937. When
they finally passed the Community
College Act in 1963, it was described as
a miracle. One of the miracle-workers
was Northampton County’s own
Jeanette Reibman.
Reibman was raised in Illinois.
“When I moved to Pennsylvania, I found
it very difficult to understand why a
great industrial state didn’t have the
same kind of educational opportunities
for young people,” she recalls. In a
recent interview with The Morning Call,
she noted,“I used to say that without
community colleges Pennsylvania was a
caboose on the train of progress.”
Pennsylvania boarded the train
during a period of unprecedented
growth for community colleges.
Statistically a new two-year college
opened almost every week during the
1960s. Enrollment nearly quadrupled.
These were years of ferment on
colleges campuses as the civil rights
movement, the women’s movement and
the war in Vietnam provoked strong
debate in and out of the classroom. In
many ways community colleges had
been ahead of their time. Their historic
commitment to open access took on
“near religious importance” in the 60s,
according to one observer.
A decline in the number of high
school graduates, the energy crisis, and
taxpayer revolts slowed momentum in
the 70s and 80s, but only temporarily.
Advances in technology increased
businesses’ need for ongoing training
for their employees. Many adults
returned to college on their own to
update their skills as lifelong learning
became a necessity rather than an
option in most fields.
Technology also provided new
tools for teaching and learning. In the
1990s, faculty at community colleges
helped pioneer ways to use new media
to enhance their courses.
Community colleges were quick to
recognize and to respond to the “digital
divide” that threatened to impede
educational progress and limit career
opportunities for computer “have-nots.”
The “Faces of the Future” study conducted by the American Association of
Community Colleges and the ACT
showed that at the turn of the 21st century community colleges were making a
major contribution to advancing computer literacy, especially for single parents and first-generation college students. That challenge will continue for
the foreseeable future as will the challenge of providing access to higher education for students of limited means, for
making sure adults have the opportunity to continue to learn throughout their
lifetimes, for ensuring that local communities and the country-at-large have the
workforce needed to be competitive in
the global marketplace, and to help
communities and the nation learn to
view diversity as a strength that can be
capitalized on as demographics change.
If the past is prologue, community
colleges are equipped for the task. The
next hundred years promises to be as
exciting as the last.

icture today’s typical job
interview.
Do you see the manager asking
first,“Where did he go to college?” Or,
do you think the main question is,
“What skills, knowledge
and experience does she
have that we need?”
Where you went; as in,“He
went to Lehigh,” or “She went to Penn,”
is becoming less critical/more anecdotal in getting started and in advancing in a professional career. It’s information employers
still want to know when hiring applicants, but the days when ‘where you went’ could open career doors are vanishing forever.
Northampton Community College administrators and faculty see this trend solidifying as the economy becomes even more
skill-oriented. But community colleges find themselves in a frustrating position; knowing that their graduates are equally and
sometimes better prepared to start in professional careers than grads from more prestigious schools, yet also aware that the public’s perception hasn’t caught up to this reality. The need to turn around the outdated perception that open-access college
degrees are second-rate is the goal most often identified in the college’s marketing discussions. In fact, Northampton graduates
who go on for four-year degrees show not just comparable results, but many rank better than the students who were accepted as
freshmen to the selective colleges. And Northampton’s surveys of the graduates who decide not to go on for more education find
almost all obtaining positions in their chosen careers within a year of graduating.
But this reality goes against the public’s preconceptions about community colleges.

of those for whom the chief thing is the qualities of

practical men who carry on the business of the world. They
respect nothing but power and respect power only so far as
it is exercised. The third class consists of men to whom
nothing seems great but reason. If force interests them, it is
not in its exertion, but in that it has a reason and a law. For

it is a cosmos so admirable that to penetrate its ways seems
to them the only thing that makes life worth living. These
are the men whom we see possessed by a passion to teach

themselves over completely to their passions to learn, it
is because they exercise self-control. These are natural

write on. Everything would be organic
from there.” Boone readily agrees.“Yeah,
I think it’s good for brainstorming,” he
says.“But theoretically, it’s not anything
you couldn’t do with pencil and paper.
Just more efficient.There’s also something frightening about 20 people
sitting together and typing into screens
instead of talking to one another. It
sucks the sense of humanity out of the
room.”
Technology has always been a
powerhouse of influence in American
lives. Delahunty notes the ever-increasing sway the media holds on today’s
scholars.“Ever since things like MTV,
television is much more stimulating,”
he says.“And I think that may hinder
students in the classroom, where things
move at a slower pace.” He worries
about our nanosecond society and the
“casual inattention” it has created in
many of his students.
It isn’t so much that grade scores
have dropped, but concern about how
you earn those grades seems to have
changed.“There’s a disconnect between
the grade,” Delahunty says,“and what
you should expect of yourself to get
there.As English teachers we ask for
critical thinking, yet so much in today’s
society comes as furnished information.” Indeed, in a world hardwired to
the Internet, information rules. But literature is not simply another variety of
information, taken at face value and
judged on whether or not it’s a “good
read.” Delahunty insists that finding the
true value in stories demands thought.
Boone agrees on the expanding
power of the media and its toll on literature, and takes it just a bit further.“It’s
really our whole culture,” he says.“You

Professor X, Dennis Ebersole, and
Professor Y,Alex Rolon, are colleagues
on the math faculty at Northampton.
You might expect this to be the only
point they have in common, but their
approach to teaching intersects at
almost every set of coordinates.
Both love their discipline.
“Math is a tool for solving problems,” says Ebersole, a past winner of
the Christiansen Award for excellence
in teaching. “It helps students become
better problem solvers.”
Alex Rolon, Professor Y, also sees
math as a way of thinking. “Math is
about expressing yourself in many
ways, but coming to one conclusion,”
he reflects.
The veteran educator and his
young colleague share a commitment
to students and the conviction that
learning should be an active rather than
a passive pursuit.
Rolon encourages students to come
in for extra help. Many take him up on
his offer, as evidenced by the line outside his office door and the frequent
ringing of the phone. Still, he says, “I
wish more would come.”

vicarious experiences. Literature has
become almost a niche hobby.”
In a world where change is the
only constant, how can academia
remain a viable commodity? Boone
doesn’t pretend to have all of the
answers, but he does offer a sobering
word of advice.“Education has always
lagged behind the culture,” he says.“But
the old ways of ‘whip them into shape
and teach them what they need to
know’ are impractical in the real
world. I truly believe that if the
academy doesn’t adapt, someone will
come up with a radical alternative to
college degrees and put the academy

“What can I do to help you

the answers,“It’s amazing

The word “learn” is
significant. Both Ebersole

as teachers. “If something
doesn’t go right, let’s try
something different,” is
Rolon’s attitude. “It’s not

Ebersole concurs. Even

a lack of math skills; it’s simply a matter
of subtraction: 2001 minus 1967.The
difference equals 34 years of advancing
technology.
Tauke began her career as
Northampton’s first physics teacher in
1967, the year the college opened.
Along with her duties in the classroom,
she was charged with getting the
physics program up and running.That
meant a ton of work in a handful of
months.“I wrote the course outline,” she
says,“decided which experiments we’d
do on what kind of equipment, then
found the vendors and outfitted the
labs.”
Tauke still has the energy of the average 25-year-old.
School breaks annually find

Geologic Survey.When she
does take a breather, it’s to
enjoy a quiet dinner with her
husband of 36 years, John.
The lab equipment
Tauke purchased was state of
the art for its day, but her students still worked their
analysis on slide rules.
“Tedious, and labor intensive,” says Tauke.“You had to
line up the numbers just
right, and if you lost your
place you had to start over.”
Doney started teaching
physics three semesters ago, Bill Doney
at the dawn of the 21st
Century.The development of the
microchip means his students can whiz
through their numbers on
electronic calculators.
But while Doney
welcomes technology, he
sees it for what it is.
“Using the calculator,” he
says,“just turns the key
that gets the answer out.
It’s the old garbage

need to know what to

Though Doney is only
beginning his teaching
career, he has logged nine
years doing work in
physics for the U.S. Navy.

laid back than Tauke’s. If

soul mate to hang with. Her name is
Katarina, a native of Bratislava, Slovakia,
where she and Doney met last year.
Doney’s entire family flew to Slovakia
this summer to attend their wedding.
Though a generation apart,Tauke
and Doney have much in common. Both
have master’s degrees in their fields:
physics and mechanical engineering,
respectively.Tauke also did work in
physics for the U.S. Navy before coming
to Northampton.And while computers
have revolutionized the classroom Tauke
knew, her teaching methods are not so
far removed from Doney’s.The acknowledged classroom style of Tauke’s era was
the traditional lecture.“You took a piece
of chalk and wrote across the blackboard,” she says.“Students copied and
memorized what you wrote. But we also
broke that up with demonstrations,
which were always fun.”
She was recently surprised to find
at least one of her fun demos alive and
well in this century.At the college’s
Springfest last May, at Doney’s science
exhibit, she watched him prove a natural law with no more than a revolving
wooden wheel and a hardy volunteer.
Tauke was delighted.“I used that when I
was a grad school teaching assistant,”
she says.
Tauke’s fond memory was not only
Springfest entertainment; it’s one of
Doney’s favorite examples.“It’s called
the conservation of angular momentum,” he says.“It’s what ice skaters do
when they spin with their arms
stretched out and slowly lower them to
their sides, until they’re spinning at a
blur.”
Doney includes demonstrations
with his lectures whenever possible.
But while lectures are still a big part of
Doney’s semester, he has more than
chalk and blackboards to make them
come alive; he’s got technology.
Today’s classroom is likely to be a
multimedia affair.They call them Smart
rooms, for good reason. Computer
brains link a ceiling projector and
sound system to VCRs, cameras and PCs.
Everything from transparencies to 3-D
objects to the Internet is blown up and
projected onto a screen.“Smart rooms
give us access to changing information,”
says Doney.“What the military is doing,
what NASA is doing, new designs of
planes — real world stuff. Physics is
everywhere.This lets the class tap into
it in a way that really hits home.”
Still, Doney has no plans to make
his course computer-based. He looks on
new technologies as tools in his
teacher’s kit, and likens today’s teaching
methods to using Windows instead of
DOS.“Different platforms,” he shrugs.
“But the content of the computer is the
same. I think that what has really
changed is that physics has become
more approachable, more easily digested.”
The content of physics, at least at
the freshman level, has not changed
much in 30 years. In fact,Tauke points
out, it hasn’t changed much in 300
years. Change may be part of nuclear
and atomic physics and
work at the quantum
level, but the basics hold.
“The principles of gravitation, of mechanics, electricity, magnetism and so
forth,” says Tauke,“are the
same.We’re talking about
Newton’s laws.Things
still fall from the sky at
the same rate.”
Since her days in the
physics classroom,Tauke’s
career has undergone
some major changes, from
faculty member to administrator. She is currently
dean of instructional
technology and the college’s registrar. She will
proudly remind you
though that she still holds
faculty rank in physics
and electronics.That

counseling Jack Tarbell began his
career at Northampton, Mark Henry
wasn’t even born.
Just the thought makes both men
chuckle.
But despite the fact that the two
are from different generations, similar
11
goals led them to a career helping students at Northampton Community
College.After three years in the admissions office, Henry was looking for a
new way to build on his advising skills.
At about the same time,Tarbell
decided to step down after 32 years of
service.The result was a natural fit:
Henry took on a new position as assistant director of advising and transfer
services, and had the opportunity to
work with Tarbell to assure a smooth
transition.
“When I started at the college, I
didn’t know who Jack was or what he
did, but I always said to myself, one area
I wouldn’t mind doing is advising and
transfer,” Henry said.“So when I had the
opportunity to go to advising, I jumped
at the chance.”
Retired Professor Jack Tarbell
Henry and Tarbell both were
attracted to the advising department
because they liked the idea of being
able to meet with students more than
once throughout their college careers.
Advising enabled them to get to know
students and develop personal relationships with them.
Tarbell, who began his career as a
teacher, decided that student services
was where he was meant to be after
serving as a dorm director while studying educational administration at
Syracuse University. When he joined
the Northampton staff in 1968,Tarbell
was one of three counselors in the student activities area who, because the
school was in its infancy, laid down the
framework for several college departments that didn’t yet exist.
“Ken Kochey (recently retired professor who began his career at
Northampton in
student services)
handled admissions
and records, and
the rest of us did
athletics, counseling,
student activities,
placement, financial
aid, and advising —
everything else.
There were only
600 students at that
time,” Tarbell said.
“We each picked
areas we were interested in, so I developed the financial
aid office since I had
some experience
with that. I also
started the placement office and
transfer area.”
In the years that
followed, the transfer program became
an important component of Tarbell’s
job. He developed
relationships with
other colleges, and
began a database to track where
Northampton students were going
and how they fared after they left.
“I had to learn what kind of students went to various four year schools:
what courses they took, what grades
they had,” Tarbell explained.That way,
he could tell students which courses to
take and what to strive for.
“We have a pretty good sense of
what our students are doing,” Henry
said.“We get to see students work hard
here and then go to Kutztown and do
well, or go to Lehigh and do well.We
must be doing something right.”
In the college’s beginning years,
most students did not continue on to
another college, and a higher percentage of veterans came to campus, thanks
to money provided by the GI Bill.
Tarbell estimates that 80 percent of
graduates went right into the work12
force. Interests were as varied in the
late 60s and early 70s as they are today.
“Electronics was popular then, and it’s
still popular, but the business major is
more popular now than it was then.
Also, we had a strong art program from
the beginning,” Tarbell said.
Today, continuing education is a
much more popular decision.The most
popular colleges and universities for
transfer,Tarbell said, are East
Stroudsburg, Kutztown and Moravian,
with Temple, Cedar Crest and Allentown
College (now DeSales University)
following close behind.
Henry, who enrolled in student
affairs in higher education at Kutztown
University, was a counselor at Kidspeace
for two years before joining the staff at
Northampton.“I was going through a
whole career ‘what do I want to do
with my life’ period. I’d see these kids
every day and try to help them with
their futures and I didn’t know myself.
It was actually better that way because
I understood what they were going
through,” he said.
Henry admits that he still has a lot
to learn, but that he’s enjoying his new
role at Northampton, and he has already
begun building on the sturdy framework Tarbell laid.
“The most challenging part is
that Jack knew information off the top
of his head because he worked with it
for so long, and I can’t do that right
now. If a student or faculty member
needs information, Jack could give the
answer in two seconds, but it takes
me some time to research it,” Henry
said.“It took me a while to accept
that.The first few months were difficult
— I didn’t even know where to look
sometimes.”
Tarbell said he’s confident that
Henry will build on what he has done.
And though he’s just begun a new
phase in his life, he said he wouldn’t
change the years he spent helping
Northampton’s students.
“I’m younger than my age for working with these young adults,” he said.
ABOUT FACE:
LIFE AFTER THE MILITARY
BY JAMES L. JOHNSON
T
he two worlds have their
differences.Anyone who’s
been in the military can tell you
that.And after a 24-year career, you
may need some adjusting to civilian
life. Bill Lademan, assistant professor
of chemistry at Northampton,
understands that.
Lademan is one of four retired
military men for whom Northampton is a second career. His adjustment is typical — nothing major,
just some fine tuning.“When an
officer gives an order, it’s done,” says
the retired Marine Corps officer.“I
can’t order my class to do things.
I’ve got to encourage them, and
help them to see the joys of
chemistry.The Marines are very
structured, very precise.This is
much more fluid and you need to
adjust for that.”
Tom Mayock, associate registrar,
notes the different work style of
higher education’s democratic decision-making.As a lieutenant colonel
in the Army for 24 years, Mayock
took pride in keeping his troops
informed. But when marching
orders come through, you pack up
and go.“When you get that call at 2
a.m.,” he says,“telling you to have
your unit ready to fly to Europe in
48 hours, there isn’t a lot of time for
consensus building.”
Still, Mayock is quick to point
up the similarities as well.“The
working world of the military isn’t
all that more structured than the
civilian,” he continues.“In fact, on
one of my assignments at a service
school we processed about 23,000
students a year.Which is close to
what I do now.”And Mayock happily
notes that at Northampton, like the
military,“everybody’s working for
the same objective — the benefit of
the students and the college.”
Pedro Anes, program manager at
Northampton’s Bethlehem Center, is
a retired senior NCO from the Army.
He strongly agrees that, military or
civilian, people need to share a
vision.“An organization can’t function without synergy,” he says.“It’s
that concept of shared values that
keeps any organization great.”While
Anes believes in the mission of
Northampton, his transition to
civilian life was a bit rocky.
“My job search lasted almost
two years,” says Anes.“I definitely
felt discrimination, both racial and
against the military. During interviews I was asked questions about
my ethnicity and heard stereotypical
comments about the military.A
Fortune 500 company kept me on a
string for eight months — and here
I am with a master’s degree in management, using up my nest egg to
keep going.”
Bill Lademan understands Anes’
encounters with stereotyping.“A lot
of people think a Marine Corps
officer is a lacks education,” he says.
“The truth is, the military places a
high premium on education.” Like
his counterparts, Lademan shared
his time in the field with time in the

classroom. By the end of his career he
had earned the rank of lieutenant
colonel, along with four master’s
degrees; a Ph.D. in physical chemistry
came after retiring.
Far from a want of learning,
Lademan’s smarts earned him the
honor of working for the Joint Chiefs
of Staff during the Gulf War.“I was a
war planner,” he says.“We worked on
reacting to the Iraqi high command’s
objectives.”Apparently, the planners
reacted very well: Lademan’s group
developed the maneuver that ended
the war.
It seems the military is as gung-ho
on life-long learning as Northampton.
“It’s kind of ingrained in you from day
one that learning is a constant
process,” says Mayock, who also
earned his master’s degree in the service.“You don’t stop because if you
stop you go stale, and you’re no good
to the military if you’re stale.”
The Pentagon’s emphasis on education prepared John Thomas for
eventual work at Northampton.
Thomas, assistant professor of business law/paralegal studies, is another
retired lieutenant colonel from the
Army.A 21-year veteran,Thomas
worked his way from law clerk to a
senior attorney in the Judge Advocate
General’s Corps. He’s done everything
legal, from trying courts-martial to
helping secure a ship to moor off the
Persian Gulf as a relaxation destination for troops in Desert Storm.
He also made his teaching bones
on a three-year assignment at West
Point.“I went to West Point with an
image of what a West Pointer was,”
says Thomas.“I soon realized what I
had was a room full of 18-year-olds.
Honestly, teaching them wasn’t all that
different than teaching here.”Thomas
is sure to make a distinction for the
class though.“I tell them my background,” he adds, smiling.“And I tell
them it’s not necessary to stand and
salute when I come in.”
Pedro Anes was just 17 when he
joined the Army.“My father consented
because he knew the GI Bill would
14
give me the education he couldn’t
afford,” says Anes.“The Army paid 90
percent of your tuition, so I saved
most of my benefit for post-military
education.” Over a career of 22 years,
Anes earned an associates, a bachelor’s
and a master’s degree, all in management.“With the money that’s left,”
he says.“I’m pursuing a Ph.D. in
education.”
As even the greenest civilian
knows, the military moves its people
around a lot. Our four second
careerists have been stationed everywhere from New Jersey to Oklahoma
to Hawaii; and from Korea,Vietnam
and Taiwan to Saudi Arabia and Iraq.
For some, the moving was smooth. For
others, there was a sense of loss.“The
Army is your community,” says Anes.
“It’s a big picture community. But you
don’t have the neighborhood sense of
community, strong bonds with people,
roots in a church, a civic sense. I’m
glad to have that back.”
Yet, others embrace that broader
definition of home. John Thomas also
felt a loss of community, but from
the other side.“The thing about the
military,” says Thomas,“when you
move, you move into a community
that readily accepts you. Because
they’re always moving too.The
military has a phenomenal support
network that you just don’t see in the
civilian community.That took some
getting used to.”
All of these men have much life
experience and education behind
them, both in the field and in the
classroom.They are leaders.And like
true leaders, they are concerned more
with what needs doing than what has
been done.“A lot of retired people
linger with the service,” says Lademan.
“They feel like a fish out of water
when they leave. But me, I never
looked over my shoulder.” Pedro Anes
sums up what could be a credo for a
second career.“I value what I did in
the military,” he says.“It was important
but it’s a done issue.The question is,
“What am I doing now and where will
I go in the future?”

From the Chairman
M
etamorphosis (met e-morífe-sis) n., pl.-ses(sez) 1. A
transformation, as by magic or sorcery. 2. A marked change
in appearance, character, condition, or function.
As you read this Annual Report of the Northampton Community
College Foundation, you can’t help but to be impressed by the changes
taking place at the college. Many of the changes are obvious to even the
most casual observer. Some require a more discerning eye to recognize.
Both types contribute to the vibrant institution we know as Northampton Community College.
After 33 years, the college is undergoing a dramatic facelift. The exteriors of many of the buildings
are being resurfaced. The concrete plaza is being replaced by a garden, classrooms are being updated and a
loop road constructed around the perimeter of the campus.
Moving from buildings to people, you’ll see that many of the faculty that began teaching when the college was founded, have retired and been replaced by the next generation — fresh with new ideas and
approaches.
More subtle changes can be found in-between the lines in the articles that profile our donors and the
impact that their gifts have on the lives of the students the college serves.
Changing students’ lives. It all comes down to this. The structures and the faculty help to define
Northampton Community College, but changing the lives of the students who walk through its doors is the
reason for the institution’s existence.
Increasingly, philanthropy helps contribute to the student’s own metamorphosis as each new arrival
becomes a learner and, finally, a graduate. Donor support first provides students with the financial aid necessary to attend, but private resources are also put to good use in the day-to-day functioning of the College
through allocations to the library, for capital equipment, the sponsorship of lecture series, and for faculty
development.
In the next few years, the Foundation will turn to the community to an even greater extent, as we look
to continue this metamorphosis of student and institution through a comprehensive campaign. We are
grateful for your past support and confident that your future philanthropy will help us continue the transformation that has only just begun. We will look to you to help us make magic.
Sincerely,
Paul Mack

The Road to Success Is No Mystery
R
. Dale Hughes is
clearly in his
element, settled in his
desk chair in the den
of his home in East
Stroudsburg.The
room reflects the
man, in ways tangible
and intangible.Visitors
are surrounded by
framed pictures of
him and his father
Russell at various
ground breakings
related to their family
printing business, and by photos of his homes, his boats,
certificates of achievement in the community, in business
and as a philanthropist. The photos hint of the man: multifaceted, accomplished but still very down to earth, and for
whom the road to success is no mystery.
“Hard work and focus are important,” he says. “I’ve
always been a big believer in education. I thought early on
that I’d like to manage a printing plant someday.”
Hughes spent a few years working in the trade, and
then attended the Labor Management Institute at Yale
University in New Haven, Conn. It was an era of labor unrest
in the printing industry, and the skills he acquired were
invaluable.“This impressed upon me the need for ongoing
education,” he says.

a wave of his pipe,
enveloped in smoke as
the conversation causes
him to look back over
the years.“In the years
that followed, I attended
New Haven University
and took advantage of the
educational opportunities
available through our
printing trade associations
at Carnegie Mellon, studying topics ranging from
new technologies to public speaking to finance.”
A native of East Stroudsburg, Hughes attended East
Stroudsburg High School and the Valley Forge Military Junior
College, graduating in 1943.An Army veteran, he saw service
in Europe during WWII. Discharged in 1946, he joined his
family at the Hughes Printing Company, starting as an
apprentice in the composing room. As with most businesses there where high points and low points.What Hughes
thought would be the culmination of his career came in
1968 when Printing Corporation of America, on whose
board he sat, was sold to American Can Company.
But opportunity knocked one year later, when American
Can decided to shut down several of the PCA plants.
“Among the third generation of the Hughes family, none
wanted to take the risk such a purchase would entail,”
recalls Hughes.“My dad, who was 76 at that time, decided to

join me as a partner. I literally put everything I had into this
venture.”
The partnership brought him back to Stroudsburg to
stay, where at first Hughes and his father, and then Hughes
alone, saw the venture prosper and grow beyond their
wildest expectations, ending with its sale in 1990. Hughes
is an unabashed supporter for the region, and retains a keen
interest in local business and in the quality of life in the
community.
Hughes and his wife Frances, a retired public school
teacher, are well known throughout the area for their
dedication to the community and their generosity. Much of
the Hughes’ giving is focused on scholarships.
“Scholarships, in my view, are absolutely critical,” says
Hughes.“I think it’s important to help people who want
to go to college but find it tough.When you think about
people who took the first job they found out of high school
and then realized they needed more education, or perhaps
married young and had to deal immediately with family
responsibilities, you realize that there are real opportunities
and significant needs out there.”
The couple established the Hughes Family Foundation
Scholarship at Northampton in 1989, in part to encourage
residents of Monroe County to take advantage of the
college.What Dale and Frances most enjoy is the chance to
meet the Hughes Scholars.“I am impressed with their commitment, drive and academic achievement,” said Hughes.
“They really are quality people. Northampton Community
College is a great asset to the community because they are
actively educating the current and future generation of
workers,” said Dale.“Frances and I are glad to be supportive
and we strongly encourage others to be supportive as well.”

eresa Donate’s role at Northampton as assistant
professor of counseling touches the lives of students
who seek adjustment to a new, and many times a somewhat
intimidating, culture.
Donate is known throughout the Lehigh Valley as
Northampton’s point person for Latino affairs. She inherited
the informal role upon the retirement of long-time counselor,
Blanca Smith.
“We can not serve all in the same way. Students
coming to us now are more diverse and many no longer
leave their home land behind,” Donate says. She states that a
major challenge for these students is “to learn the American
way.” Cultural differences, along with language barriers, are
primary challenges. “It is critical,” she says,“to have students
expand their expectations of what they can do with their
lives and to improve their productivity in the classroom.”
Donate regrets that Latino students are often not aware
of the professional accomplishments of the Lehigh Valley’s
Hispanic population. She views as part of her position the
celebration of differing cultures and their contributions to
the community. Her goals: to have an Hispanic celebration
on campus for a full year (rather than just one month); to
create even more campus awareness on issues of diversity; to
increase the endowment for Blanca Smith scholarships (six
students will benefit this coming fall from this scholarship
fund) and to improve academic achievements through all
avenues of support. This includes academic advising for
freshmen through a special orientation for Hispanic students.

Outside of Northampton, Donate serves on the
Bethlehem Musikfest Council and is a board member of
ACCO, a Lehigh Valley choral group of women. She is on
the education committee of Alianza Latina, a member of
the by-laws sub-committee of Latinos in Higher Education
and serves on the structure planning committee of the PA
Statewide Latino Coalition.

A Voice for
Hispanic Students
Blanca Smith counseled NCC students from 1981
until her retirement last year. She remembers the days
when student services to the Hispanic population were
just developing. At that time, the majority of Hispanics
were first time students. They came directly from
Puerto Rico and, Smith says, they came to NCC well
prepared.
“They came north without ever having suffered
prejudice,” she said. The college’s counselors found
that “the international students were more secure than
those coming from the public or Catholic high schools.
In fact, they really were fully developed adults.”
“Believe it or not,” Blanca smiles, “I would rather
take drop-outs. In general, these were brighter students who usually left school because they were fed up
with the system. In fact, they
probably were brighter than
the ‘C’ students who graduated from high school who got
‘Cs’ just for being nice.”
Most of the students who
Smith saw in counseling came
for language. They wanted to
be as comfortable in English
as in Spanish. In this regard,
according to Smith, the Latino
students of today share much
the same needs and desires as
their earlier counterparts.

Retired Family Physician Goes on Caring
A
clinic in Easton and as a school
physician for the Easton Area
School District.
A piano dominates the
living room of Dr. Holland’s
College Hill home, along with
very loving oils of her mother
and father.“My mother was an
extraordinary woman who had
hoped to be a physician,” she said.
“The war changed the course of
her life; instead, she worked in her
parents’ restaurant and then got
married. I asked her to go to
medical school with me, but she
demurred. A talented musician,
her mother also helped manage
Dr. Holland’s practice until her
death in 1973.
Dr. Holland was married to the late Dr. Herbert
Holland, a dentist who worked at Northampton’s dental
clinic and practiced for many years in the Easton Area.
Tragically, their time together was comparatively short
and when he passed away, she decided, based on insight
from friends, to establish the Herbert Holland Dental
Auxiliaries Scholarship for Academic Achievement at the
Northampton.
Dr. Holland finds great joy in the Holland Scholars.
“I’m pleased that they are doing so well and I admire the
students who have taken on this challenge a little later in
life,” she said.“Northampton is wonderful place to study,
and to see if college is right for you. My hope is that at
least some the Holland Scholars will stay in the area.
Easton really is a wonderful community.
“I loved every one of my patients, and they knew it!”
— By Michael E. Nagel
conversation with Dr. Kathryn
Krausz Holland evokes
thoughts of the family doctor
from ages past. Diminutive and soft
spoken, Dr. Holland reveals a keen
sense of humor and concern for
others as she talks about her 48
years in practice.
“I established my practice right
at my house, and saw patients morning and night,” recalled Dr. Holland.
“I made house calls to care for
those who could not, for various
reasons, get to my office. My father
was a physician, and taught me that
you could learn a lot about your
patients just by entering their
home. Sometimes, I’d notice a bare
refrigerator, so I would take care of
the patient and leave without collecting a fee.”
A native of Hungary, Dr. Holland immigrated to
the United States in 1924 at the age of four.“There were a
number of Hungarian people in Alpha and Bethlehem,
and they formed the basis of his original practice.”
Dr. Holland attended the New Jersey College for
Women (now Douglas College at Rutgers) and then
attended Hahnemann University in Philadelphia.
Were female doctors a rarity in this era? Not really,
recalled Dr. Holland.“I was one of 19 women in my class
of nearly 100,” she said. She rejects the notion that she
was a trailblazer.An internship at the old Allentown
General Hospital followed, as did a year of residency in
the Philadelphia area. She then returned to the Easton
area where she worked with her father for several years.
During her long career, in addition to the time devoted to her patients in her practice, Dr. Holland served on
the staffs of Easton and Warren Hospital, working in the
