Bruce Boyd ’62 reports that 39 people showed up for a reunion of Phi Gamma Delta in Las Vegas in April. The group gathered for dinners and reminiscing. “There was a bond formed between us many years ago, and this bond has been reinforced by the wonderful experience of seeing each other again and interacting in strikingly different but wonderful ways,” Bruce said.<\/p><\/div>\n

A documentary film by two CC alumni was screened at the Texas Black Film Festival in February 2011. \u201cLuc Marlin, artiste et enseignant martiniquais\u201d is the work of Ann Scarboro \u201963 <\/strong>and Susan Wilcox<\/strong>. It features Luc Marlin, an acclaimed French Caribbean artist and teacher, as he talks about his paintings, French Caribbean history, and culture from his studio in Fort-de-France, Martinique. Ann and Susan teamed up 11 years ago to produce a series, \u201cEthnic Expressions from the Mosaic of the Americas,\u201d which includes films about artist Victor Anicet, poets Aime Cesaire and Jocelyn Valverde, and writers Maryse Conde, Raphael Confiant, and Edwidge Dandicat. Ann has her Ph.D. in French Caribbean literature, and Susan founded her videography company in 1990.<\/p>\n

Harris Sherman ’64 and Bill Hochman<\/p><\/div>\n

\u201964<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Professor Emeritus of History Bill Hochman and Harris Sherman<\/strong> recently reunited at Sherman\u2019s office at the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Said Prof. Hochman: \u201cHarris was one of my favorite students of all time. He was my advisee through four years. He wrote a distinction thesis in history with me that probed the intention of the framers of the 14th amendment. In it he showed, contrary to some views, that the framers certainly wrote the amendment to protect the rights of the newly freed slaves. I have referred some prominent legal beagles to that undergraduate enterprise. Later, he used the same kind of inquiry using original sources in an appearance before the U.S. Supreme Court to argue that the Bureau of Indian Affairs was created not only to protect the interests of Native Americans, but also to be a government agency run by them. He won the case. Of course, it was a great thrill to visit him in his office in the Department of Agriculture in Washington.\u201d<\/p>\n
