UNIVERSITY OF ALABAMA

STUDENT AFFAIRS2010 - 2011

The University of Alabama is an equal-opportunity educational institution/employer.

“Everyone is a teacher and a learner.”

This is exactly how Melissa Kish explains

her leadership philosophy and a main reason

she was attracted to the LeaderShap e

Institute, an organization that draws college

students from all over the country to learn to

share, discover, and most importantly, accept

a disregard for the impossible as they look to

their futures.

After submitting her application to

become a LeaderShape facilitator, Kish

underwent an intensive selection process

that examined her familiarity with confl ict

management, leadership and group

dynamics. Kish used the skills and knowledge

she has gained working in Student Affairs to

impress a committee that ultimately offered

her a position at the Atlanta national session,

where she served as a cluster facilitator.

Kish packed her bags and traveled to

Atlanta for faculty member training a few days

before students arrived ready to learn. She

knew there was a life-changing week ahead

for the carefully selected college students and

was grateful for the added preparation time

for both she and the other facilitators.

The University of Alabama sent 10

students to the national conference this

past year. Leah Boyd, a senior at UA, was

fortunate to be part of Kish’s small group

for the week and describes that Kish made

a profound impact on her experience.

“Melissa pushed us to think critically about

our vision and our passion by asking the

right questions. Now, she is someone I have

on campus that I can talk to even after the

experience because she understands all of

the things we learned.”

When Kish looks back on the week

in Atlanta, she notes that this wasn’t just

an infl uential experience for the students.

Kish returned to UA with improved skills in

developing student leaders and program

facilitation along with a new energy and

outlook on the opportunities college students

have. “College students have talent, passion

and drive to make the world better, and

they blew me away,” said Kish. She further

explains that the most rewarding part

of cluster facilitation was witnessing the

transformation among the students she

led. “For some students, LeaderShape was

the fi rst time they had ever been able to

see themselves as leaders. It gave them

confi dence to go out and make a difference.”

Kish empowers her students at UA to

make a difference through a daily example

of embracing new challenges and learning

opportunities in every aspect of a work

environment. For Kish, “teaching and

learning” defi nes her career in Student Affairs

where she serves as an Assistant Director

in University Recreation. As she practices

being observant of lessons in leadership, Kish

continues to fi nd teachable moments that

inspire her students.

welcome to

The

Universityof

Alabama

We are thrilled to share a glimpse of student

life at the Capstone. The A Book is distinct

from other publications in that it is written

entirely by students, for students. It is a

tradition that began in 1908 as a simple

guidebook for students. Publication ceased

in 1968, but First Year Experience is excited

to revive the tradition this year. Although

many things on this campus have changed,

one remains the same—the pride we share for

this outstanding University. The nine of us

are eager to bring you this guide about the

University’s resources, student life, traditions

and surrounding community. We hope that

you refer to it often throughout your first year

and beyond. From our list of “50 Things to

Do Before You Graduate” to descriptions of

opportunities to find your niche on campus,

this book holds information that we believe

is integral to the student experience. As you

become a member of our community, we

hope The A Book helps you make UA your

home away from home.

Have a phenomenal first year at The University

of Alabama and take advantage of all our

campus has to offer.

Roll Tide!

With less than two hours left to live, Hilda Reynolds Krause slumbered peacefully in the condo’s master bedroom. She had not awakened as her husband, Marvin, prepared to drive to Caesars Palace. He had slept in the guest bedroom so that his early departure would not disturb his wife. Hilda’s rude awakening to this last—and extremely short—day of her life was only minutes away as Marvin entered the attached garage, locking the door behind him. He fully intended to drive his Cadillac to the casino, but never made it.

The nylon stocking mask did nothing to filter the venom from a slurred and snarled command. Not shouted, instead delivered at a decibel level barely above a stage whisper, the crude order seemed all the more threatening and seriously personal.

“Stay outta that goddamn car, dumb ass!”The second nylon mask nervously repeated the uncompromising

command while adding a string of imperative expletives. The gambler’s instinctive response was to resist.

Moments earlier Marvin Krause had activated the garage door opener and was turning to open the door of his 1974 Cadillac when a pair of ill-defined shadows suddenly bloomed three-dimensional and charged him through the two-car-wide portal. The lead figure was little more than an apparition in the pre-dawn haze while issuing the initial warning against entering the car.

Among those who knew him best, without dissent Krause’s pugnacious personality was acknowledged, always combat ready

On April 16, 1972 at 15,000 feet in the skies near Hanoi, North Vietnam, Major Dan Cherry first met Lieutenant Nguyen Hong My. In an intense five minute aerial battle Dan shot down the MiG-21 piloted by Hong My. Major Cherry returned safely to his base. Lieutenant Hong My lived but was severely injured during the ejection. Both men returned to the cockpit to fly again. Thirty six years later Dan Cherry and Hong My met face to face in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), Vietnam for the first time since that fateful day.

of the smoke, steam and loud noise of the locomotive yet strangely drawn to it.

My trips on the Pullman car, especially the ones at night, were quite the adventure for a little boy. I recall looking out the window draped with a sleeping curtain to block the glare and letting my imagination run

wild as the train raced across the countryside. “It feels as if we’re flying, Grandmother,” I said as the train sped over an elevated trestle or bridge. In my young and impressionable mind and heart, the sensation of flying had taken root.

Other vivid memories of growing up in Bowling Green center on the World War II era.

Uniforms were everywhere. I noticed the soldiers, particularly the Army Air Forces pilots with their flashy silver wings, getting on and off the trains, shopping in the stores, and strolling through the town. Just like my grandfather Sullivan, they too became my role models and my aspiration.

By the time I was 10, Mother married her high school sweetheart. Henry Hardin Cherry, Jr. became my dad, and a great dad he was. As evidence of the love we shared, he adopted me and gave me the Cherry name—a blessing I will never forget. An aeronautical engineer, Dad moved us around a lot while he chased defense contracts. Henry Hardin Cherry, Jr. was not an aviator, but he worked on some amazing airplanes such as the F7U Cutlass, the B49 Flying Wing, the C-130 and the C-5A. We traveled from California to Texas and back again—finally residing in Powder Springs, Georgia. It was a great life, but Bowling Green continued to feel like home for our nomadic family.

Wherever we lived I remember airplanes constantly flying over our house. I imagined what fun it would be to fly the P-51 and the early jets like the F-80, the F-84 or the F-86. Through high school, the years I

Bowling Green, Kentucky is a great town—just the right size to find what you need without fighting the hassles of big city life. But it’s the people—special people—who define the uniqueness of Bowling

Green. I was a baby when my mother divorced my father. She and I returned to

Bowling Green to live with my grandparents. I remember nothing about the divorce, but I do remember the love and care given me as a child in this small Kentucky town. My Granddaddy Sullivan or Dynamite Dan to his friends, was my hero. He drove one of the big K4B Pacific steam locomotives on the L&N Railroad, and I thought Granddaddy walked on water. One of my favorite childhood memories is Grandmother taking me to the depot to see Granddaddy’s train come in. I remember being scared
