Deirdre Sullivan attended a Halloween party held in Oceanside, CA. Revelers brought food and beverages for a chilly but fun outdoor potluck dinner. Sullivan (in the center wearing a Renaissance Maiden outfit), is standing next to a real dog – not someone in costume. Sharp eyed individuals will note one of the attendees has three arms. 

In September, Sullivan (far right) and a ragtag bunch of friends attended a San Diego IMAX screening of Beetlejuice 2. Great fun! 

Since retiring from teaching in the secondary schools, Ben Eastman has been learning to paint (watercolor), traveling with his wife Lori, following CC hockey, and helping lead a chapter of The Compassionate Friends, a support group for parents of sons or daughters who have died.

A group of CC friends reunited for a sunset boat cruise in New York. Pictured: Trev Jones ’63, Joan Schmitz ’64, Henry English ’64, Sue Heidelberg Lotz ’64, Christina McInerney ’65, Ellen Price ’64, Traer Sunley ’64.

The group included Kathie Bruce Murphy, Kate Berthrong Durham, Isabel Williams Shanahan, and Heather Kirk Thomas. They say the highlight of the trip was their visit to Glenna Goodacre’s sculptural Memorial to the Irish Famine Emigrants, not only for its artistry but also because they all attended CC with the artist. In addition, they visited local museums and parks and ate and drank extremely well. They stayed downtown in lovely Rittenhouse Square and enjoyed walks in the neighborhood. All their great memories of CC came up over the visit. After Philadelphia, they drove to visit Marty Breternitz Walton in Hagerstown, MD.

During March 2025, my wife and I did two Road Scholar tours in New Zealand. Our first tour group included Margaret Mckinney ’73 and Tom Power, who took a summer school class at CC and whose brother is Robert Power ’72. Those coincidences were amazing enough! But our second tour group included Courtney Ashley ’73 and Zach Zacharakis, whose mother Norma Zacharakis worked in development at CC. Courtney and I both took classes with Susan Ashley. Zach now has a home in Colorado Springs and sometimes hikes with one of my former Biology profs – Ron Capen. What are the chances of that??

Perfect fall weather in the Twin Cities was ideal for a mini-reunion for CC grads Anne Woodward White ’77, Patti Freudenburg ’77, and Linda Henn ’77. (Linda’s wife Deb Pieczonka pictured as well.)

Following completion of his term as president of the United Soccer Coaches, the largest soccer coaches association in the world, Engeln took on the challenge of resurrecting the United Soccer Coaches Foundation. Starting with a budget of only $200 in 2001, the Foundation to date has given out over 300 soccer education grants and scholarships to underserved communities totaling over $500,000. Many of the grants, especially in inner-city locations, are also tied to supporting student academic achievement in school. The first grant from the Foundation was actually in partnership with CC and the Taos Pueblo Community Center to help address obesity issues amongst Native American youth through the development of youth recreation programs in their communities. Engeln, former CC soccer coach Horst Richardson, and CC soccer alum Alec Rekow ’87, did soccer coaching clinics for parents supporting the implementation of a youth soccer league for the eight New Mexico pueblos located north of Santa Fe.

Siegel and Barkley met in the first grade and remained classmates through grade school, high school, and at Colorado College. They finally started dating second semester of their senior year at CC and for several years after graduation before parting ways and marrying other people. Siegel and Barkley reconnected after suffering the deaths of their spouses and now look forward to sharing their lives together (and, hopefully, attending the next reunion).

Note: CC graduation and their wedding day weren’t the only times Sue and Charlie walked down the aisle together. They walked side-by-side when they graduated from eighth grade. What a long, strange trip it’s been.

Riding his BMW 1200GS has been one of the highlights of being retired from the National Park Service after 27 years as a curator in the Intermountain Region. Of course he had to add a CC Tigers decal to the front windscreen and he gets lots of compliments on it. Now Matthew is the Vice President of the BMW Motorcycle Club of Colorado, which was organized in 1972 and is one of the largest such chartered clubs in the country by the BMW Motorcycle Owners of America. Too bad the 150th CC Sesquicentennial and Homecoming is held in November — otherwise he’d ride to the celebrations. Matthew says it seems like his time at CC was 150 years ago…are you sure it was 1984, not 1884?

She recently won an award for Mastery of Material and Technique at the Summer Art Market in Denver.

SALISBURY, MD – “A highly engaged, reflective practitioner who has an exceptional teaching record” and “a passionate and demanding professor” who can “blend research and teaching seamlessly to the benefit of students” have been recognized with this year’s Salisbury University Distinguished Faculty Award.

Drs. Alexander “Sandy” Pope, associate professor of secondary and physical education, and Tim Stock, professor and chair of the Philosophy Department, are the recipients of this year’s prestigious honor, given by faculty to faculty.

“Part of our institution’s mission statement says, ‘Believing that learning and service are vital components of civic life, Salisbury University actively contributes to the local Eastern Shore community and the educational, economic, cultural and social needs of our state and nation,’” said Dr. Laurie Couch, SU provost and senior vice president of academic affairs. “This year, the Faculty Awards and Recognition Committee selected two recipients who strongly exemplify this commitment to civic engagement.”

Dr. Alexander Pope

As director of SU’s Institute for Public Affairs and Civic Engagement (PACE), Pope oversaw the University’s successful application for the Carnegie Foundation’s Classification for Community Engagement, a prestigious distinction that documents campus efforts that display an “excellent alignment among campus mission, culture, leadership, resources and practices that support dynamic and noteworthy community engagement.”

He also helped create SU’s Civic Engagement Across the Curriculum program, teaching more than 60 colleagues how to design courses for community engagement.

A recipient of the University System of Maryland’s Wilson H. Elkins Professorship to expand PACE’s programming, Pope used the opportunity to facilitate the transfer of the National Center for Civic Reflection to SU. The New Student Reflection Initiative is now a major component of SU orientation, providing a meaningful initial learning experience for incoming students.

In addition, overseeing SU’s ShoreCorps Americorps program through PACE, Pope has secured nearly $4 million in funding during the past five years, supporting over 360,000 hours of public service for area governmental and non-profit agencies, and more than $1 million in scholarship funding for program participants.

Pope also spearheads the SU Maryland Holocaust Educators Network and organizes its Summer Institute for Teachers, and has served on a number of SU committees.

Beyond SU, he has been a member and leader of a number of boards and committees for organizations including the National and Maryland councils for the Social Studies, the Jewish Museum of Maryland and the University System of Maryland working group on civic engagement. In addition, he has more than 20 publications and over 60 conference presentations.

More than benefitting the community, Pope’s work helps to provide his students with a meaningful and well-rounded education, according to his nominator, Dr. Doug DeWitt, chair of SU’s Education Leadership Department.

“Through all of his teaching, his service, and his research and scholarly activity … Sandy provides his students with a premier learning experience and influences the next generation of secondary school social studies teachers.”

His novel, Conscious Designs, was published in 2022 by Miami University Press. In the book, Eugene, a wealthy paraplegic, must decide whether to preserve his consciousness forever in a digital utopia or suffer the pain tormenting his existence. Yet, the more he learns about digital replication, the more deeply he understands personhood, empathy, and the value of suffering.

He was awarded the Distinguished New Faculty Award from the College of Arts and Sciences at East Tennessee State University, where he is Assistant Professor of Art History, and the Emerging Scholar Distinguished Presentation Award from the Midwest Art History Society.

Nicholas Zuschneid ’18 and Dr. Kate McGinn ’18 got married June 28, 2025 at the Denver Botanic Gardens at Chatfield Farms. Many CC folks were present for the celebrations!

She has taught instrumental and vocal music in Colorado and the Bahamas and is currently a St. Vrain Valley School Board director.

On May 9, 2025, Cameron Stopforth ’18 and Lucy Sloan ’18 graduated from the University of Louisville with their PhDs. Stopforth earned his in Physiology and Sloan earned hers in Pharmacology and Toxicology. They were both Winter Starts at CC and earned their BAs in Molecular and Cellular Biology (Stopforth) and Neuroscience (Sloan). They both ended up pursuing higher education after CC and landed at the University of Louisville for their PhD programs. Stopforth’s dissertation was “Volatile organic compounds and their relation to sympathetic activation and autonomic balance in humans” and Sloan’s dissertation was “The effects of EtOH and Tributyrin on Alzheimer’s Disease pathogenesis in 3xTg-AD mice”. They walked back-to-back at their hooding ceremony. It’s incredible to see how far the CC connection reaches and to see Tiger alums reaching great success post-CC.
