-
- Barry Sarchett, English, started in 1989. “I have two articles that I want to finish after delivering them at conferences. Longer term, I plan to go to cooking school (preferably French), spend as much time in the Greek islands as possible, and of course read, read, and read some more.”
-
- Tom Lindblade, Theatre and Dance, started in 1989. “I am retiring to Los Angeles, where I will finally live permanently with my husband, Hugh Maguire. I will continue to work on a newfound passion: writing libretti and lyrics for new musicals, classical chamber works, and short operas. The one thing I will always take with me from CC is my amazing students, who have made my life rich for the past 32 years.”
-
- Marlow Anderson, Mathematics and Computer Science, started in 1982.
-
- Stephanie DiCenzo, Physics, started in 1982. “I hope to volunteer in the fight against voter suppression. I also hope to photograph the most entertaining of the mid-century commercial buildings (and their signs) in Colorado Springs, and to revive and improve my grasp of other languages. And to travel when the dust of the pandemic has settled.”
-
- Mario Montaño, Anthropology, started in 1990. “I plan to continue doing research and writing on the Texas-Mexican border region’s folk foodways and doing fieldwork research on the different cultural regions in the Rio Grande River basin.”
-
- Marc Snyder, Organismal Biology and Ecology, started in 1996. “I plan to spend time with family and friends (even if it’s virtual for now), time in nature (not virtual), reading, writing, traveling, and continuing ecological research. But mostly just enjoying family, friends, and nature.”
-
- Ralph Garcia-Bertrand, Molecular Biology, started in 1991. “After retiring in August, we sold our house in Cascade, Colorado, and moved to the community of Navajo Dam, New Mexico. We now have a home on the San Juan River in New Mexico and continue to have our home in Leadville, Colorado. I look forward to spending time at both homes skiing, ice skating, fishing, hiking, and biking, while finishing my next book and getting back to woodworking.”
