PRESIDENT’S 

MESSAGE 

Dear Alumni: 

As is apparent to all of us, the demographic makeup of America’s 

workforce, and, indeed, its consumer marketplace, is changing 

rapidly. According to U.S. Department of Labor statistics, by the 

year 2008, women and people of color will represent 70 percent 

of all new entrants to the workplace. Moreover, recent statistics 

show that minority consumer buying power nearly doubled over 

the past decade, growing at a much faster pace than overall U.S. 

buying power. In fact, combined consumer spending by people 

of color, who now make up nearly 40 percent of the total U.S. 

population, is an amount greater than the gross national product 

of Canada. 

In meeting the needs of this ever-changing society, government and 

industry leaders have turned to institutions of higher education for 

help in reframing the way they do business. Colleges and universities 

are providing critical workforce training, innovative research 

and development, and state-of-the-art technology transfer—all 

aimed at closing the economic and social gaps that still exist among 

diverse groups. UMUC is particularly well positioned to meet that 

challenge. 

As a university, our diversity is somewhat unique. Of the 80,000 

students currently enrolled in UMUC programs, more than half 

are women, and 46 percent consider themselves minority group 

members. Likewise, our alumni groups represent a veritable United 

Nations of racial, ethnic, and cultural backgrounds. UMUC’s 

virtual campus has opened the door to enrollments that literally 

span the globe, across all of its seven continents. This vast online 

educational network also makes it much easier for students with 

Patricia J. Toregas 

diverse lifestyles and disabilities to fully participate at all levels of 

higher education and continuing professional development. Moreover, 

we offer extensive financial aid, as well as such specific 

assistance programs as Better Opportunities Through Online 

Education and Northwestern Partners in Progress, in an effort to 

close the economic gap for students who might not otherwise be 

able to afford higher education. We are also committed to hiring 

faculty and administrative staff that closely reflect this amazing 

diversity among our student body. But, most importantly, our 

graduates are consistently found among the top management 

tiers in both the private and public sectors, regardless of their 

race, gender, ethnic backgrounds, or disabilities. 

With this big picture firmly in mind, we turn to you, our alumni, 

to help us continue “closing the gaps” in this great nation of ours, 

by donating your talent, experience, and dollars to ensure UMUC’s 

position as a global leader in educating diverse adult learners. We 

believe that, through this commitment, we may open many new 

avenues of thought and opportunity for the students and communities 

we serve, now and in the years to come. And, that, after 

all, is the true mission of education in all of its forms. 

Sincerely, 

Patricia J. Toregas ’84 & ’91

Brit Kirwan Assumes Role as Chancellor August 1 

William English (“Brit”) Kirwan began his new position as chancellor 

of the University System of Maryland (USM) on August 1, 

2002. Kirwan, the former president of Ohio State University 

(1998–2002) and the University of Maryland, College Park 

(1989–1998), succeeds Donald N. Langenberg, who retired on 

April 30, 2002, after almost 12 years as chancellor. 

Kirwan said that the USM is increasingly viewed as a national 

and global leader in the delivery of high-quality, affordable public 

higher education and that he was “elated” to begin his new job. 

“The USM institutions are poised for greatness,” Kirwan said. 

“The campuses are delivering on their promise to attain national 

eminence and have the momentum to take their rightful place 

among their peer institutions—the North Carolinas, Wisconsins, 

Michigans, the very best that American public higher education 

can offer.” 

The University System of Maryland enrolls more than 120,000 

students, employs more than 10,000 faculty members, and has 

an operating budget of more than $2 billion. There are 13 institutions 

within the system, 11 degree-granting colleges and universities 

and two research institutes. The system is governed by a 

17-member Board of Regents. Kirwan is the third chancellor of 

the system, succeeding Langenberg and John Toll, currently president 

of Washington College in Chestertown, Maryland. 

“The USM institutions are among Maryland’s most valuable assets,” 

Kirwan said. “They are vital elements in the economic and cultural 

life of Maryland. I look forward to joining the USM family and 

want everyone associated with the system to know that I am here 

to champion their cause.” 

Nathan A. Chapman, former chair of the USM Board of Regents, 

said the board is certain that Kirwan will convey the message that 

the USM is a seasoned and reliable supplier of public higher education—a 

product that will not falter, even in an uncertain economy. 

“Brit Kirwan is a proven, mature leader who reflects the stature the 

USM has achieved,” Chapman said. “He is confident, thoughtful, 

sensible, and greatly respected.”

A native of Kentucky, Kirwan grew up on the University of 

Kentucky campus, where his father was dean of students, graduate 

dean, and finally president of the university. The younger Kirwan 

earned his bachelor’s degree from the University of Kentucky and 

holds a master’s degree and PhD from Rutgers University. He is a 

member of several honorary and professional societies, including 

Phi Beta Kappa, Phi Kappa Phi, the American Mathematical 

Society, and the Mathematical Association of America. He is coeditor 

of the book Advances in Complex Analysis. He serves on 

the boards of directors of the American Council on Education 

and the National Association of State Universities and Land 

Grant Colleges and co-chairs the Business–Higher Education 

Forum’s Diversity Initiative Task Force. Last April, Kirwan was 

elected to membership in the American Academy of Arts & 

Sciences, the nation’s preeminent learned society and research 

institution. 

Kirwan is married to Patricia Harper Kirwan; his two children, 

William E. Kirwan III and Ann Elizabeth Horton (who earned 

a master’s degree from UMUC) are alumni of the University of 

Maryland, College Park; and he has three grandchildren.

UMUC Inn and Conference Center Expansion 

Will Make It Area’s 12 th Largest 

By Andrea Martino 

The University’s plan to expand its Inn and Conference Center in 

Adelphi, Maryland, by some 100,000 square feet will make the 

UMUC complex the 12 th largest meeting facility in the national 

capital area and more competitive for larger conferences. The 

UMUC Inn and Conference Center, 12 miles from the nation’s 

capital, is practically equidistant from Dulles, Baltimore- 

Washington, and Reagan National airports. 

The addition will more than double the number of guestrooms 

available. With construction already under way, the expanded area 

will include 127 guestrooms, 15 suites, and seven conference rooms. 

Planners expect the addition to be complete by December 2003. 

Construction for the site was approved by the University System of 

Maryland Board of Regents in July 2002 and is funded by auxiliary 

revenue bonds through the System Funded Construction Program. 

The architect for 

the project is 

Oldham and 

Partners, a 

Washington, D.C., 

firm that recently 

designed the renovation 

of the Inn 

and Conference 

Center’s existing 

hotel, ballroom, upstairs lounge and art gallery, and the Garden 

Restaurant. The construction manager for the expansion is Bovis 

Lend Lease of Bethesda, Maryland. 

Oldham and Partners has registered the addition with the U.S. 

Green Building Council for certification in the Leadership in 

Energy & Environmental Design (LEED) program that requires 

the utilization of recycled materials and energy efficiency. The 

UMUC addition is one of only two hospitality projects worldwide 

registered with the U.S. Green Building Council.

Three UMUC Employees Receive 

Presidential Award 

(Left to right) Pershail Young, Gerald Heeger, Tobe Levin, and Enid Bank. 

Three UMUC employees received Presidential Awards at the 

annual Service Awards ceremony on September 12, 2002. Each 

recipient—Enid Bank, director of Instructional Technology; 

Tobe Levin, faculty member, UMUC–Europe; and Pershail 

Young, director of Administrative Processes and Student 

Support—received a plaque and monetary award of $5,000. 

“The Presidential Award is designed to recognize extraordinary 

accomplishment and performance by a member of the university’s 

staff or full-time faculty,” said Erytheia Lambert Jones, vice president 

for Human Resources. “Nominations are solicited in the 

late spring of each year and reviewed by a committee made up of 

a cross section of UMUC employees, including representatives 

from the staff and faculty governance groups. The committee’s 

recommendations are then presented to UMUC President Gerald 

Heeger for his approval.” 

The Presidential Award—first granted in 2001—is part of the 

university’s employee award and recognition program and is 

typically granted to an employee who demonstrates commitment 

to UMUC as a whole and who has a record of extraordinary 

achievement on a project that directly impacts the university’s 

operation or mission and yields positive, tangible, institutionwide 

results.

UMUC Partners with Joint Forces Staff College 

By Andrea Martino 

UMUC and the Joint Forces Staff College (JFSC) of the National 

Defense University have established an agreement allowing JFSC 

graduates to earn a new online Master of Science in Management— 

Joint Military Strategy, Planning, and Decision Making degree at 

UMUC. University Provost Nicholas Allen and JFSC Commandant 

Roosevelt Mercer Jr., Brigadier General, U.S. Air Force, signed 

the agreement in the fall of 2002 at JFSC in Norfolk, Virginia. 

The partnership will enable 

students currently enrolled 

in JFSC’s Joint and Combined 

Staff Officer School 

and Joint and Combined 

Warfighting School, as well 

as those who have already 

completed either program, 

to earn the new UMUC 

degree. To be eligible, students 

must be able to complete 

necessary coursework 

in seven years, starting from 

the time they begin at JFSC. 

University Provost Nicholas Allen shakes hands with JFSC Commandant Roosevelt 

Mercer Jr., Brigadier General, U.S. Air Force. 

“We are entering a new era 

as we embark on this venture 

between UMUC and the Joint Forces Staff College,” said 

Mercer. “Such a partnership is revolutionary, not evolutionary, 

in its input for civilian/military relationships as we join to support 

and defend this great nation. This is a win-win [partnership] 

for the civilian community and for the military.” 

To earn the master’s degree, JFSC graduates will transfer 15 credits 

from the college, then complete six more UMUC management 

courses and two end-of-program courses for a total of 39 credits. 

Those who complete the degree may then choose to pursue a 

UMUC Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree by taking 

only three more six-credit courses. The required courses from 

UMUC are available completely online, though students who 

wish may take classes at appropriate sites throughout northern 

Virginia, Washington, D.C., or Maryland. 

5 ACHIEVER 

“We are most pleased to extend UMUC’s graduate programs to 

students and alumni of the Joint Forces Staff College,” said Allen. 

“Both UMUC and JFSC share synergies in effective management 

principles—such as critical thinking, problem solving, and teamwork—that 

are fundamental both in military and for-profit arenas. 

The credentials of a UMUC management degree, available because 

of our expertise in online delivery, will offer JFSC graduates the 

added benefit of being 

more marketable when they 

retire from the military.” 

In addition to its wealth of 

online academic offerings, 

UMUC’s online student 

services, including library 

and information services 

with about 90 databases, 

will be accessible to JFSC 

graduates. 

This is UMUC’s fourth 

Graduate School partnership 

with U.S. military 

organizations since August 

2001. Other recent agreements 

are with the Army Signal Center (Fort Gordon, Georgia), 

the U.S. Naval War College (Newport, Rhode Island), and the 

Army Management Staff College (Fort Belvoir, Virginia). UMUC 

partnered with the Information Resources Management College 

of the National Defense University in 1995. 

UMUC is the leading educational provider to the U.S. military, 

last year enrolling more than 47,000 U.S. active-duty military 

personnel and their dependents in 28 foreign countries, under 

contract with the U.S. Department of Defense. JFSC is the U.S. 

Armed Services’ premier educational institution for joint and 

combined operational-level planning and warfighting.

CLOSING THE GAP 

THE DEMOGRAPHIC “FACE” OF AMERICA IS CHANGING— 

AND AT A RATE FAR GREATER THAN MOST OF US COULD 

EVER HAVE IMAGINED. OVER THE PAST CENTURY, THE 

UNITED STATES HAS BECOME AN ECONOMIC, SOCIAL, AND 

POLITICAL HAVEN FOR PEOPLE OF ALL COLORS, CREEDS, 

AND NATIONALITIES. AND THAT ALLURE HAS RESULTED 

IN SOME TRULY SIGNIFICANT DEMOGRAPHIC SHIFTS. 

Achieving Economic Parity Through 

Workplace Diversity

The numbers tell the story. For Americans age 70 and older, there are 5.3 white people for 

every person of color—or a ratio of roughly 5 to 1. However, for Americans under 40, this 

ratio changes dramatically, becoming 2 to 1. Even more amazing, among children under 10 

in this country, the ratio drops to 1.5 to 1. Moreover, the term “minority” is no longer an accurate 

description for racially and ethnically diverse groups in 48 of our country’s 100 largest cities. 

As this demographic shift occurs, the makeup of the U.S. workforce changes accordingly. Although 

women have always accounted for roughly half of the total population, they were never considered a 

significant force to contend with in the business world—until the 1960s and 1970s, when women 

began to enter the ranks of corporate America in unprecedented numbers. According to the U.S. 

Department of Labor, women now compose nearly half of the total workforce. 

Similarly, the number of African American, Asian American, American Indian, and Latino workers 

has grown exponentially. Just 50 years ago, these ethnic groups combined represented only 7.6 percent 

of the workforce. Today, that percentage is rapidly moving upward, more than doubling to 16 percent in 

2000 and projected to surpass 30 percent by the year 2020. Moreover, the U.S. Census Bureau reports 

the number of Americans with disabilities—a group that covers all of the racial, gender, and ethnic 

bases—is outpacing every other subgroup of the population. Today, more than 20 million families, 

out of the 70 million in this country, report having at least one member with a known disability. 

Unfortunately, in spite of these dramatic shifts in the demographic landscape, we are still grappling 

with what this all means to the workplace. How do we end the discrimination—both overt and 

covert—that continues to lurk there? Although we have made strides toward embracing a more inclusive 

workplace, we continue to record significant disparities in pay, power, and promotability 

between the traditional American workforce—which until just a few years ago was overwhelmingly 

white and male—and that of its emerging challenger, which includes increasingly more women and 

multiethnic workers. 

Take women, for example. Despite the total number of women working in corporate America, they 

account for only 10 percent of senior management staff in Fortune 500 companies, less than 4 percent 

of the uppermost management ranks (CEO, president, executive vice president, and COO), 

and fewer than 3 percent of top corporate earners. According to the Equal Employment Opportunity 

Commission, in 1999 (the last year for which figures were available), African American and Latino 

workers, the two largest minority subpopulations in the U.S., were in a similar position. African 

Americans accounted for only 6.2 percent and Latinos 4.2 percent of all senior officials and managers, 

whereas whites held 86.3 percent of those positions. In addition, these groups held only 6.6 

percent and 3.5 percent, respectively, of all professional positions, compared with 81.8 percent held 

by whites. Moreover, economist Julianne Malveaux recently reported that African American household 

incomes in this country, as a whole, remain at less than 60 percent of white household incomes. 

With this bigger picture in mind, what are we doing as a nation to even the opportunity playing field, 

shatter the glass ceilings, and, therefore, close the economic gaps that still plague us for a whole host 

of reasons—discrimination, the traditional roles of women, educational inequities, and divergent 

lifestyles, to name a few? For one thing, government has risen to the occasion with such legislative 

policies as the various civil rights acts, the Equal Employment Opportunity Act, the Family Medical 

Leave Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and minority business set-asides. Additionally, the 

private sector has proffered a variety of family-friendly policies and merit promotion schemes to 

make it easier for everyone to move up the corporate ladder. Moreover, both sides of the fence— 

public and private—are spending millions every year on diversity initiatives, aimed at closing these 

7 ACHIEVER

gaps and making it more comfortable and profitable for everyone 

to work. And colleges, universities, and policy think tanks are 

receiving millions in grants and contracts to develop and study 

these initiatives. 

So, given those efforts, how are we doing as a nation and where 

should we go from here? To answer these questions, we decided 

to convene our own panel of UMUC alumni, faculty, and 

administrative staff—all of whom are currently involved, in one 

way or another, with the business of diversity planning, management, 

and training. 

Like most folks committed to advancing the workplace diversity 

movement—as a way to close the economic gap for women and 

minorities in this country—our panel members concurred that 

the diversity issue is not only multifaceted, but also evolving. As 

Harvey Major, a UMUC graduate who works for the U.S. 

Department of Energy, put it, “Diversity has about as many 

meanings as there are people in the conversation.” 

Ernesto Santos-DeJesus, UMUC’s director of Diversity Initiatives, 

agreed. “The beauty of diversity as a concept is that it addresses 

so many levels. Even within identified minority groups, there are 

subgroups, so to speak. For example, within Hispanic culture, there 

is a wide range of distinctions made in terms of skin color, education, 

socioeconomic status, and national origin. And all of those 

factors affect employment opportunities. So I like to think of diversity 

as more about the different ways people think and process 

information in relation to their own cultural and personal experiences. 

Everyone brings something different into the workplace, 

which is what makes it so dynamic.” 

As an educator, Megan Hurley, a faculty member and program 

director for education in UMUC’s Graduate School, uses the analogy 

of a mature tree with many branches to illustrate the concept 

of diversity to her students. “I often ask them to imagine themselves 

standing on one particular branch of that tree and then 

jumping onto a different one. Each branch is equally strong in its 

own way, and all of them eventually lead to the same place—up.” 

“In today’s world, it’s hard to find a classroom 

in which there aren’t at least some issues of diversity.” 

Megan Hurley 

After nearly 13 years of experience in employee fair practice and 

diversity planning with the Maryland–National Capital Parks 

and Planning Commission, Jeanette Glover, a UMUC Graduate 

School alumna, contends that employers are beginning to view 

diversity as a three-dimensional construct: the individual worker, 

the organization, and the customer. 

“From the individual worker’s perspective, managers must take 

into account all of the things that make each employee a unique 

contributor to the work effort,” Glover said. “But we also need 

to determine what must happen organizationally to harness those 

contributions. So, within that dimension, I envision an inclusive 

workplace in which everyone feels comfortable, productive, and 

genuinely involved—one that encourages creativity and risktaking 

and where there’s an open-door policy for settling issues 

fairly and expeditiously. Once you have those two dimensions in 

place, you need to add the customer to the mix. Everything we 

do to further opportunity in the workplace makes it far more likely 

that we will meet the needs of the marketplace.” 

In responding to these needs, a growing number of businesses, 

institutions of higher education, and government agencies are 

implementing their own diversity programs. These initiatives run 

the gamut from special events designed to promote multicultural 

awareness to clearly defined practices for recruiting, hiring, and 

promoting a more diverse workforce. Most employers find the 


investment highly worthwhile, especially when faced with the 

high cost of not only hiring and retaining employees, but also 

holding on to market share. According to Diversity, Inc., losing an 

employee costs about four times that worker’s salary, whereas losing 

a worker with ties to a multicultural community costs far more in 

terms of overall market share. Our panel members were quick to 

point out that the “business case” for diversity is becoming far 

more widely accepted in both the private and public sectors. 

“Diversity programs focus on developing a workforce that more 

closely reflects the consumer marketplace as a whole,” said 

Santos-DeJesus, “and that helps strengthen the bottom line in 

two ways. By expanding employment opportunities, we’re creating 

a more affluent consumer population. On the other hand, a 

diverse workforce can be more responsive to the needs of specific 

consumer markets. Everybody wins.” 

Jeanette Glover agreed and added that many employers are beginning 

to see a real return on their diversity program investments, 

particularly in terms of a happier and healthier workforce. 

“Since we began diversity planning and training in earnest at the 

commission, we’ve had fewer discrimination complaints,” Glover 

said. “To me, that means that folks here feel more comfortable 

with each other and with the working environment, and that 

translates into greater productivity and employee retention, saving 

us all a lot of money in the long run.” 

Hasan Sayani, a UMUC faculty member and program director in 

Information Technology and Technology Management, likens 

embracing diversity in the workplace to “creating a larger, and 

therefore stronger, gene pool.” In the process, Sayani believes that 

employers have become more open-minded in their hiring prac- 

tices, and recalls encouraging a friend in the technology field to 

hire a highly qualified woman who was also completely deaf. 

“He was understandably worried that her disability might get in 

the way of her ability to do this particular job,” Sayani said. 

“However, he ended up hiring her and, months later, told me 

that his company had gained many unexpected benefits as a 

result of this decision. For instance, because they had to communicate 

with her solely through the written word, they found that 

their written presentations were now far more lucid and effective.” 

But our panel members agreed that, in spite of the strides we’ve 

made so far in this country, as a nation we still have a long way to 

9 ACHIEVER 

Ernesto Santos-DeJesus 

go in achieving true economic parity for women and minorities. 

As Santos-DeJesus—who has nearly four decades of fighting discrimination 

under his belt—put it, “If I could write a book, it 

would be entitled, Out of the Box—What Now? We’ve done a 

good job of teaching people what discrimination looks like, but 

we’re still grappling with what to do about it—how to find real, 

hardcore solutions.” 

“Everyone brings something different into 

the workplace, which is what makes it so dynamic.” 

Harvey Major couldn’t agree more. Besides his “regular” job with 

the Department of Energy, Major serves as treasurer for the 

department’s National Treasury Employees Union and Blacks In 

Government chapters. In wearing these hats, he advocates for 

programs that lead to longer-term solutions for moving people 

onto and up the career ladder. 

“There are basically two ways to close the economic gap,” he 

said. “One way is to push people down from the top. That’s pretty 

much the approach we’ve taken up to now. The other, and obviously 

preferable, way is to implement practices that move people 

up from the bottom, but that requires some real strategic planning. 

For example, our union chapter has taken the lead in developing

a series of career pathways for lower-grade employees at Department 

of Energy. By completing the necessary steps for advancement 

under this program, an employee can move from a blue-collar to 

a white-collar job classification. And that could mean as much as 

a four-level jump in pay grade.” 

Megan Hurley believes that women, in particular, need greater 

social support to succeed in their chosen career fields. 

“Although we’ve made some real progress in terms of closing the 

gender gap, our society continues to struggle with the duality of 

women’s roles,” Hurley said. “Let’s face it; women are still being 

asked everyday to make choices between family and career that 

men seldom have to consider. If we expect women to have greater 

employment opportunities, we need to create a much more familyfriendly 

workplace. That demands a much greater commitment 

on society’s part to advocate for higher-quality day care, for example, 

as well as a broader application of family leave policies.” 

In keeping with UMUC’s commitment to diversity edu- 

cation, Megan Hurley (faculty member and program 

director for education in the Graduate School) recently 

served on the planning committee for an innovative 

University System of Maryland conference entitled 

Teaching Diversity/Thinking Diversity, held October 12, 

2002, on the Towson University campus. 

“This conference was developed to help us all look at the 

many ways we can address and incorporate diversity edu- 

cation at the university level. On a personal level, it has 

given me an exciting opportunity to not only share ideas, 

but also find better ways to implement them in my own 

work,” said Hurley. 

Faculty members from the 11 degree-granting institutions 

within the University System of Maryland were asked to 

submit papers for possible presentation at the confer- 

ence, which was open to anyone interested in attending. 

As a result, five UMUC faculty members, from a variety of 

disciplines, were chosen among the final 28 presenters: 

Julie Carvalho (psychology); Gila Kurtz (distance educa- 

tion); Jim Rawson (communications); Uche Ohia (Center 

for Teaching and Learning); and Henry J. Grubb (psychology 

and counseling). 

According to our panel members, affinity groups—organizations 

that champion the rights and interests of specific subgroups— 

have played significant roles in creating awareness around the 

workplace discrimination issue. However, these organizations 

must now ally themselves more closely to achieve greater gains 

for women and minorities as a whole. Jeanette Glover warned 

that when one group’s interests are pitted against another’s, the 

“‘crabs-in-a-barrel syndrome’ often results, in which one group 

gets a stronger foothold at the top, and pushes others back down 

into the barrel.” Santos-DeJesus echoed that sentiment and 

added that it’s time for these groups to form larger, cross-cultural 

alliances, “because, as we’ve seen in the past, there’s always greater 

power in numbers.” 

Nevertheless, in assessing progress, our panel members agreed 

that America is now well positioned to turn its smaller victories 

over discrimination into big wins down the road. Jeanette Glover 

said that the events surrounding September 11, although tragic, 

united us more closely as a nation, regardless of our individual 

differences. Santos-DeJesus noted that a number of large U.S. 

corporations—Hewlett Packard, Pepsico, Ford Motor, and Ernst 

& Young, to name a few—have done a “great job” in terms of 

promoting women and minorities to positions of power. Moreover, 

according to Harvey Major, we are entering the “decade of 

opportunity” for public service employment, due, in large part, 

to the “graying of the federal workforce.” Hasan Sayani said that, 

when compared with other countries around the world, the 

United States has a number of advantages in winning the war on 

discrimination over time. In addition to the many freedoms we 

enjoy in the United States, he credits this country’s “tremendous 

economic opportunity” for attracting an incredible range of talented 

people to our shores. “I also believe that Americans, as people, are 

basically very compassionate, and most of them have taken the 

first step toward embracing diversity—they have a strong desire to.” 

So how can we harness this desire to create a far more even economic 

playing field in this country? Our panel members feel 

strongly that the answer lies, in large part, within the halls of 

academia. 

As Santos-DeJesus put it, “Education can play a major role in ending 

discrimination. We should be using the power of knowledge to 

help our young people think about these issues differently, and to 

do that, we should be incorporating diversity education as a core 

course into every discipline we offer at the college level. Additionally, 

given the global marketplace, we need to begin teaching a 

multicultural business model, rather than the very Eurocentric 

model we’re teaching now. UMUC has taken a real lead in this 

area, especially given our growing online education presence in 

just about every major student market around the world.”

For UMUC faculty members Megan Hurley and Hasan Sayani, it 

seems perfectly natural to incorporate diversity education into the 

courses they teach. As Hurley said, “In today’s world, it’s hard to 

find a classroom in which there aren’t at least some issues of 

diversity. Look at the whole [special education student] inclusion 

model, for example. I would be remiss if I didn’t weave the diversity 

theme into everything I teach.” 

In addition to diversity management, Sayani has incorporated 

multicultural business ethics into the technology classes he teaches. 

“You’d be surprised how many cultural ethics issues we encounter 

as we move our business overseas. You can see that on the college 

campus itself. Take plagiarism, for example. That’s not a problem 

in some countries where students and professionals are accustomed 

to freely using information without attributing it. When 

these individuals are accused of plagiarizing in this country, they 

don’t know what they’ve done wrong.” 

Hurley also contended that for many students the college experience 

offers the first real opportunity to interact with people from 

diverse backgrounds. She recalled her experience teaching at 

another large state university before coming to UMUC. “There 

was very, very little diversity among the undergraduate student 

body there, who, for the most part, came from small towns. So 

we had to look to faculty and staff for multicultural diversity. For 

many of these kids, living in dorms that were sometimes larger 

than their hometowns was a big step into the unknown. Of 

11 ACHIEVER 

course, they had a really hard time making the leap of faith into 

multiculturalism.” 

According to Sayani, this exposure issue is also a problem for 

international students coming to the United States for the first 

time. With this in mind, he helped students in UMUC’s Capstone 

Program create a computer system portal that serves as a two-way 

cultural “yellow pages.” He also advocates for host family and 

year-abroad exchange programs on more college campuses. “When 

I first arrived at the University of Michigan from India as an 

undergraduate, the university assigned me a host family, who 

were like my own personal transition team. They invited me to 

their traditional American holiday celebrations as well as to picnics 

and church socials. It was a great way for me not only to 

learn about western culture, but also to share my culture with 

them. I think everyone benefited from the exchange.” 

Hasan Sayani 

“I also believe that Americans, as people, are basically 

very compassionate, and most of them have taken the first step 

toward embracing diversity—they have a strong desire to.” 

Jeanette Glover, who has designed a variety of diversity training 

programs, feels that diversity education should begin with the 

way we teach history to children, starting in preschool. “We need 

to teach history the way it really happened—the good, the bad, 

and the ugly—rather than this very Eurocentric version we have 

in our schools here. History class is a good place to start fostering 

a greater appreciation for the contributions that people from all 

walks of life have made to this country, whether they were slaves, 

American Indians, or British settlers. And that appreciation simply 

translates into a much broader worldview as we age.” 

For Harvey Major, education has become an essential equalizer in 

the workplace. “Knowledge is power when it comes to being 

competitive in the job market. Now, an undergraduate degree is 

equivalent to what a high school diploma meant back in the 

1950s. Just the act of getting a good education is an important 

factor when it comes to moving ahead at work. And in something 

like diversity management, where there is no black and white, 

higher education helps people understand the gray areas better. 

Unfortunately, there are far too many people in this country— 

and most of them are minorities—who don’t have good educational 

resources. We can’t even assure educational parity in the 

federal government, where the first thing that gets cut in a crunch is 

the training budget. We need to make education a true priority if 

we’re ever going to succeed in our mission to end discrimination.”

STANLEY J. DRAZEK TEACHING EXCELLENCE AWARD RECIPIENTS 

SCHOOL OF UNDERGRADUATE STUDIES 

JOHN M. NEWMAN has been a faculty member since 1981 and has helped develop interdisciplinary 

courses on the Vietnam War, America in the 1960s, African American and Chinese history, and, 

more recently, courses on counter-terrorism and historical writing. 

While teaching for UMUC–Asia in the 1980s, Newman founded the Great Issues Studies Program 

in Okinawa—a program of debates, symposia, and other functions in which UMUC and the local 

community participated together. He organized and led the first major American academic exchange 

with the People’s Republic of China, which included a contingent of 63 UMUC students from all over 

Asia who visited China. 

Students have consistently expressed appreciation for Newman’s support of their learning. One student observed that Newman 

was willing to guide students through intimidating readings and assignments, and that by the close of the semester, most 

class members reported that they had learned a lot and enjoyed the process. Another student remarked, “Most of us wondered 

how he could possibly teach us African American history. I must admit, Dr. Newman kept the class spellbound with his eloquent 

lectures, [which] deepened my curiosity about African American history and gave me insight regarding the civil rights 

struggle during the Kennedy administration.” 

Newman’s teaching philosophy encourages students to develop skills in critical thinking and independent interpretation, and 

he makes the extra effort to help students who may lack experience or academic strength. 

Newman received his PhD from George Washington University in 1991. 

EDWIN G. SAPP has more than 35 years of college teaching experience in technical writing, business 

communications, literature, argument, computer programming, operations research, and radio wave 

propagation theory. He has taught more than 90 courses at UMUC since 1993 and was ranked as 

an outstanding educator, within the top 10 percent of faculty, by students in 1994, 1996, 1997, 

1998, 1999, and 2000. He has served since 1999 as writing chair for all English courses under the 

communications general education requirement and actively supports all new and experienced 

instructors by answering questions and sharing his own resources and teaching strategies. 

Sapp is a prolific writer on technical issues involving U.S. military system performance and defense 

budgets. He also writes articles on stress management, effective counseling, and antique car restoration, and published a 

newspaper report on a new laser surgery procedure. His numerous fiction and nonfiction pieces include articles for Night 

Music, UMUC’s literary magazine. 

His teaching philosophy is to provide practical, challenging, and creative opportunities for his students to “learn about things 

worth knowing.” He helps students apply their growing skills to real-life events, such as interviewing for a job, building a sense 

of community, and resolving problems. His warm and encouraging way of working with diverse audiences of adult learners 

has drawn praise, and students have expressed their appreciation for his classes, which have helped them obtain better jobs, 

promotions, or increases in pay.

While he admits to being an “old-fashioned teacher in a new-fangled environment,” Sapp is a leader in his commitment to 

learning and inspiring his colleagues and his students to achieve high standards. 

Sapp received his JD from the University of North Carolina in 1962 and his MLA from the Johns Hopkins University in 1973. 

GRADUATE SCHOOL 

HENRY C. ALBERTS has taught courses in system analysis, design, and information technology at 

UMUC since 1998, when he retired as professor of engineering management at the Defense Systems 

Management College of the U.S. Department of Defense. During the course of his career, he conducted 

research on supersonic flow and aerodynamics for the U.S. Army’s Ballistic Research Laboratories 

and later worked on the design and fabrication of the first U.S. intercontinental ballistic missile 

and satellite vehicles for the U.S. Air Force Geophysical Research Directorate. 

Alberts was also the head of operations research and assistant to the president of AVCO Corporation, 

where he focused on the design and building of complex management systems. In addition, he 

worked for Stanford Research Institute in research and as a management and systems consultant in Europe. 

His teaching philosophy focuses on mature students who need the instructor’s personal recognition and consideration. He believes 

that “instructors may add to their own knowledge and usefulness at the same time they provide information and knowledge 

to their class.” Students have responded favorably, remarking in one instance that he “brought a wealth of personal knowledge 

to the class and stimulated meaningful discussion.” Another student offered this apt summary of his strengths: “I enjoy Dr. 

Alberts very much. Since my technical background is weak, his lecture material was especially helpful in understanding the 

material. It was excellent! Dr. Alberts has a true gift for explaining technical material in a way that can be understood.” 

Alberts received his PhD from the City University, London, England, in 1995. 

JOSEPH H. MYERS has been a faculty member in technology and management since 1992. He is 

the chief of Strategic Planning and Policy Development for the Small Business/Self Employed 

Division of the Internal Revenue Service. He spent 15 years with the U.S. General Accounting Office 

and was responsible for numerous management reviews of cabinet-level agencies. During that time, 

he spent five years as a key staff member for both the U.S. Senate Appropriations Committee and the 

U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Government Operations. Myers’ teaching philosophy 

revolves around “four principles: relevance, class discussion, student support, and continuous communication”—plus, 

he adds, “making it fun.” These requirements involve updating his courses and 

encouraging students to share and work with their perspectives and experiences, since students are often employed with 

corporate leaders, such as Marriott Corporation, IBM, Lockheed Martin, AT&T, and EDS. 

Student comments reflect success in Myers’ commitment to this philosophy. One student said that Myers “ . . . provided 

an environment that was fast-paced, challenging, and very relevant. [He] provided great illustrations and examples from 

today’s work [and] a real-world perspective on the material.” Another class member remarked, “Myers was the best professor 

I have had. His information was very well organized and applicable. He really encouraged students to give examples 

from their own work experience. That, along with his good nature, provided the classroom with learning and interaction. 

He is clear and logical, providing insights [and] material that the books don’t cover.” 

Myers received his MS from Carnegie Mellon University in 1974. 

13 UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND UNIVERSITY COLLEGE

Hi, Everyone! 

Welcome to our threaded discussion (the first one ever for me). 

The purpose of this conference is to prepare an article for the 

Achiever on the history of online education at UMUC. Toward 

that end, I would like this discussion to be as interactive as possible, 

as it will be reprinted in this format. So, with that in mind, I 

would like you to respond to this general topic: What was it like, 

in the beginning, to create and use a virtual campus? 

Cindy Whitesel (professor of communication studies, School of 

Undergraduate Studies) was the first to respond; Kathy Harvett 

is a freelance writer and the author of this piece: 

Hi, Kathy! 

THE HISTORY OF WEBTYCHO 

As you can imagine, UMUC’s virtual campus is a work in progress, having gone through many iterations 

in its development. With that in mind, we went directly to the source, setting up our own online “classroom” 

and conference center to discuss the past, present, and future of UMUC’s Tycho-based online 

campus. Participants included some of the very men and women who have, over the past decade, helped 

make it a reality. An edited transcript appears below, much as it appeared on the participants’ screens. 

Since you didn’t set any limits, I’m going to talk a bit about this 

experience now, go away and think about it more, and then come 

back and interact. That’s the way I see students working in my 

classes and it seems to be a natural method for myself. 

I’ve been involved with teaching online so many years now, it 

seems impossible that there ever was a “beginning.” I remember 

the early days of the VAX system and how difficult it was to 

remember all the commands. I recall the early days of Tycho, 

when we couldn’t copy text or import it. I remember when 

WebTycho came along! How much easier it seemed than the 

VAX and the Unix versions of Tycho! As the software improved, 

the classes got to be so much easier to create and manage. The 

new WebTycho practically does everything so that I can concentrate 

on teaching with less time on “management.” 

Working online energized my teaching. After 20-plus years 

teaching in the classroom, along came technology and in a short 

period of time, my teaching was turned on its head. I took to it 

immediately and enjoyed the interactions. I loved reading the 

thoughts of all my students, not just the few who were gregarious 

or confident. For me, the added bonus was that my students 

14 ACHIEVER 

were writing, writing, writing. I’m a writing teacher, so I enjoyed 

watching them “write to think.” 

Now, after 30-plus years, I have to say that teaching online has 

improved my teaching in ways I never dreamed. Using the technology 

in teaching opened other avenues for me. 

More later . . . 

A few minutes later, Whitesel added: 

Just to reminisce about some of the frustrations . . . In the early 

years, when the technology was new and more primitive, it could 

be so frustrating dealing with it. I remember long waits while my 

responses uploaded to the electronic classrooms—waits long 

enough for me to get up from my computer and do something 

else. I remember the early crashes and having to start things over 

from the beginning. I remember dealing with ISPs [internet service 

providers] and learning the ropes of how they worked, when 

was a good time to be online and when one could expect to be 

booted off by faster traffic. I remember groping for a language to 

use to discuss all these new things. We just didn’t know the right 

words or the right language to discuss it. Learning curves were 

steep in those days as we worked through the problems and figured 

out how to solve them. In fact, we spent time just trying to 

name and describe the problems! In many ways, teaching online 

brought a small group of teachers together and gave us a kind of 

unity of experience that we hadn’t necessarily shared previously. 

More later . . . Don’t want to be the only one talking here . . . 

—Cindy 

Enid Bank (director of instructional technology, School of 

Undergraduate Studies) then responded: 

I came to UMUC in 1994. It was at this time that VAX was on 

its way out and Tycho, Win 3.1, was in development. As part of 

my job, I became involved in the development of this product. I 

www.umucalumni.org

was glad to see a Windows environment product, as the VAX was 

full of commands that were user-unfriendly. And I had never 

liked application packages that were full of commands. 

The WinTycho (as it became when WebTycho was invented) 

development days were exciting and energizing. We would spend 

hours at a time debating how the product should be set up, what 

needs were important for the graduate and undergraduate schools, 

and what the design should look like. In retrospect, it was a great 

committee—everyone felt free to express ideas. 

The client [software] that students and faculty needed to load in 

order to connect to the server was a problem for a lot of people. 

In the early days, there were no ISPs as we know them today and 

folks had to do a lot for themselves with the help of the very small 

Tycho support staff, our UMUC help desk, and people like myself. 

We did write a wonderful manual that was provided to all users, 

but that did not happen right away. Actually, I don’t remember 

when the first version was written, but I still have a copy of the 

last one. (I have a hard time parting with some memorabilia.) 

Getting the name Tycho copyrighted (not sure if that’s the right 

term) so that no one else would use it was something the committee 

took care of. We were on pins and needles waiting for this 

legal piece to take place. 

As soon as we had WinTycho up and running, the Web began to 

come into prominence. We could see immediately that this was 

the direction we needed to take. Again, we had a wonderful committee 

that began the development and design of the Web product. 

I’ll take a break now and let others dive in. 

—Enid 

Rich Daumit, an adjunct associate faculty member, offered some 

insights from a teacher’s vantage point: 

Teaching a WebTycho course requires more hours than teaching 

in a face-to-face classroom. One reason is having to navigate 

around the WebTycho classroom. 

We were using VaxNotes when I first started teaching online. One 

feature that VaxNotes didn’t have was an indication of whether a 

(conference) note had been read. I had 15 or 20 topics in my 

course conference and I had to keep a record of the last response 

for each topic to ensure that I didn’t miss any new responses every 

time I went into the conference. That became a very tedious task 

towards the end of the semester for me and for my students. 

Now the WebTycho classroom provides a red star to the left of 

each unread topic/response. A list of unread topics/responses is 

also provided and a double arrow at the top and bottom of each 

topic/response leads directly to the next unread topic/response. 

Less time is needed to navigate around the conferences and more 

time is available for meaningful use of the conference. The 

read/unread capability is also helpful for navigating around the 

Assignments folder. 

—Rich 

Nathaniel Calloway (academic director of e-commerce and technology 

management, School of Undergraduate Studies) added a 

few anecdotes of his own from the very early days of Tycho’s latest 

iteration—WebTycho: 

Hi, Everybody! 


Web-based education via WebTycho at UMUC has a very special 

meaning for me. 

The very first WebTycho course at UMUC in the School of 

Undergraduate Studies was offered in the summer semester of 

1997. The course was ACCT 321 Cost Accounting. I remember 

it well, because I was the content expert for the development of 

the course and taught the course that first semester. It was exciting, 

because in addition to developing the course itself, a series of 

video programs for the course were also produced to be shown 

on the cable channel and made available for rental from UMUC. 

I was the presenter in the filming of two of the video programs 

and the coordinator for all of them. 

All things went smoothly and we thought that everything was 

ready for the first day of teaching the course. We discovered during 

the first week of the course that those students enrolled who 

used AOL and Erols as their internet service providers could not 

connect to WebTycho—could not get into the Web site to take 

the course. We eventually corrected the problem and, most 

important, did not lose a single student because of the problem. 

The lesson we learned was that e-mail and telephone/postal mail 

contacts are very important in communicating with students during 

such a situation. Considering that it was the first time for 

WebTycho in the undergraduate school, we saw that our immediate 

attention to the needs of our students made the difference. 

At that time, it took an unprecedented level of cooperation and 

effort on the parts of the academic department and the IT systems 

support to solve this problem. 

I enjoy teaching WebTycho, and have done it every semester 

since the summer of 1997. In addition, I am doing my doctoral 

study in the field of Web-based distance education. I believe that 

Web-based distance education will be a significant part in the 

present and future of education—especially higher education.

“WebTycho” continued from page 15 

Wayne Precht (assistant director of Information Technology) 

offered another dimension to the discussion: 

I am not an instructor, nor have I ever taken an online course. 

But I have been programming distance education systems for 

more than 12 years here at UMUC—first with the PLATO system, 

then Tycho (frequently referred to as DOSTycho and 

WinTycho, though that refers to the client used to access it; the 

server side was the same), and now WebTycho. I have worked 

closely with faculty, especially when rolling out a new system, and 

I frequently skim through the running classes to get a sense of 

how things are going. 

This technology is in a constant state of evolution, but the underlying 

paradigms remain: conferencing as the main, asynchronous 

communication; e-mail (or “personal notes,” as they were called 

in the PLATO days) for communicating one to one. In many 

ways, as advanced as the Web version is over previous versions, it 

is still catching up to PLATO. I could make a one-to-one mapping 

of most of the PLATO features to Tycho to WebTycho. 

Maybe I will do that just to trace the intersystem anthropology. 

Beverly Morris ’99 (applications developer, Information 

Technology) gave us a look into the future of online education at 

UMUC: 

I have been working with WebTycho since 1998, and have taken 

online courses myself. I think the greatest improvement occurred 

in WebTycho during the past two years with the transition to 

WebTycho 2.x. That version and subsequent versions have largely 

been a response to the needs expressed by our distance education 

customers. 

Earlier in this conference, there was discussion regarding the committees 

that worked together to define the progression of distance 

education at UMUC. One of the most important pieces in the 

distance education puzzle is the user. In 1998, Team WebTycho 

began extensively polling its user base with usability studies and 

surveys. The technical evaluation (still in use) provided a vehicle 

for direct feedback from all WebTycho users. The future of 

WebTycho took on a new direction in response to that feedback. 

The usability studies helped define the navigation and interface 

areas of WebTycho that required updates or redesign by initiating 

testing sessions with a variety of users. 

While the committees and advisory groups played a key role in 

the development of the software, it was imperative to tap the 

open resource of customer opinion. The surveys and feedback 

from the end users still provide valuable input to the WebTycho 

development team. 

Cindy Whitesel brought the discussion full circle when she posted 

the final response: 

Hi, Everyone! 


It’s fun to see familiar names in the WebTycho conferences! 

Except for Beverly Morris, I recognize you all. 

I remember how exciting it was to be teaching writing online 

where students had to write to communicate. A novel idea developed—that 

students might have to participate in order to learn. 

In the online classroom, everyone participated and I got to know 

students better than I ever had. From there came another novel 

idea—that the classroom could be student-centered, that we 

could actually focus on the students and actually see in writing 

what they were learning and what they were thinking. When I 

could read through students’ thinking processes, I became much 

better at helping them learn the material. 

The early days were eye-opening for those of us who were open 

to new or innovative teaching strategies. In order to teach online, 

we teachers had to focus on what we were doing as teachers. In 

order to do that, we had to focus on what we wanted our students 

to learn. As we developed our notions of what studentcentered 

teaching was about, we had to examine how we taught 

and what we expected. Our students had to do the same. 

Rich and Nate may remember those early years in faculty training 

when a group of us came together to learn what it meant to teach 

online. Our training was more than “education management”— 

we were really relearning what it meant to be teachers. We were 

also learning how much more learning we could expect—and 

get—from our students. 

Although I never participated in those teacher surveys, Wayne 

may remember my stopping by to visit in IT. I’d often see Wayne 

or John and we’d have a conversation about the system, what it 

was doing or not doing, and what might make it better. I saw 

such a dedicated team of developers who seemed to actually enjoy 

their work as much as I enjoyed teaching.

UMUC JOINS FORCES WITH MORGAN STANLEY 

TO CHANGE LIVES 

As a corporation, Morgan Stanley is dedicated to creating a more diverse 

workforce, a commitment that company officials consider one of their highest 

priorities. In keeping with this philosophy, the company’s foundation—which 

made gifts totaling $40 million last year—underwrites numerous community 

initiatives that further diversity and economic opportunity for women, minorities, 

and people with disabilities. So, for Morgan Stanley, UMUC’s Better Opportunities 

Through Online Education was a natural fit—so much so that it recently 

presented the university with a gift of $450,000, over three years, to expand the 

program into Delaware and New Jersey. 

The partnership is a big win for everyone. As Joan Steinberg, vice president and 

director of community affairs at Morgan Stanley, says, “Even though the program 

is online, it’s set up to help students feel truly connected to the institutional 

environment, rather than simply hooking them up to a [personal computer]. 

We also like that UMUC works so hard to meet the needs of these students, 

who are usually working moms for whom their first priority is their kids. 

UMUC has developed a program that takes that into account—working 

around family lifestyles.” 

The Morgan Stanley gift will allow UMUC to offer its Better Opportunities 

program to qualified participants in three new markets, all of which are communities 

where Morgan Stanley offices are located—Wilmington and Dover, 

Delaware, as well as Jersey City. This proposed expansion will underwrite 33 

“Morgan Stanley Scholars” over the three-year grant period, all of whom may be 

considered for jobs in the company once they have completed the program. 

“We’ve been extremely impressed with the quality of student enrolled in the 

Better Opportunities program,” said Steinberg. “These are individuals who 

already have a strong commitment to the workforce, but who can’t move ahead in 

it for one reason or another. They are also highly motivated to improve their 

chances, especially when you consider that most of them have families and fulltime 

jobs. So, when you combine those qualities with the certificate training 

they receive through the program . . . well, these are women we would love to 

have working for us.” 

According to Beverly Lucas, UMUC’s director of Special Programs, Better 

Opportunities became a reality two years ago when the university joined forces 

with its first community partner, Goodwill Industries of the Chesapeake. The 

idea behind the program—which now enrolls 45 students—was to offer free, 

high-quality, online professional certificates to lower-income workers, who are 

often stuck in dead-end jobs that don’t afford them the opportunity to further 

their education or broaden their skills. Moreover, program courses are fully 

transferable as credits toward four-year degree programs.

GETTING INTO THE VOLUNTEER SPIRIT 

Whereas most of us think of volunteerism as a few hours here 

and there, whenever time permits, UMUC alumus Kirk Platt ’99 

sees it as an avocation, something you commit yourself to as 

passionately as, say, raising kids or climbing the career ladder. 

In fact, for years, in addition to the demands of family and work, 

Platt has done just that—giving of his time, energy, and talent, 

more than a few hours each week, to make this world a better 

place. His efforts earned him an award from from former 

Maryland Governor Parris Glendening, recognizing Platt’s outstanding 

volunteerism. 

Platt began his volunteer career 17 years ago, 

when his oldest son was born with a rare genetic 

disorder known as Wolfe-Hirschhorn Syndrome, 

which left him with multiple cognitive and physical 

disabilities, including the inability to communicate 

with words and walk without assistance. 

“When we first took our son to Johns Hopkins 

[Hospital] after he was born, we were told he 

was one of 120 known cases in the world, and 

that there was no cure. But we were both determined 

to do everything we could to help him. 

That’s when I began to see how many other kids 

and adults around us were suffering from so 

many disabilities and that there was something 

I could do to help.” 

And help he has, devoting many hours each 

month to work with such organizations as eMerge—a group 

home and job training facility for adults with multiple disabilities—and 

Ruth Eason School, where his son is a student. Much 

of the work he does for these groups centers around “problemsolving 

their special needs,” by combining his technology and 

project management skills. (Platt earned his degree from UMUC 

with a primary specialization in information technology, with a 

secondary specialization in technology and management.) 

“For the past several years, I’ve worked with a group called VME— 

Volunteer Medical Engineers. We have about 60 doctors, therapists, 

engineers, and computer guys who donate their time to 

design and reconfigure assistive appliances for disabled folks. Last 

year, we did about 300 projects for a wide variety of nonprofit 

organizations and schools. It’s an amazing group,” Platt said. 

One of Platt’s more impressive projects involved working with 

his fellow VME volunteers to refurbish and reconfigure 360 computers 

for eMerge’s computer training lab. 

Kirk Platt accepts an award from former 

Maryland Lieutenant Governor 

Kathleen Kennedy Townsend.

“I was still working for BG&E [Baltimore Gas and Electric Company] 

when I heard they had several hundred computers to give 

away. The trick was to find a way to transport them to the VME 

workshop, so that our techies could work their magic. I managed 

to find a trucking firm that donated its vehicles to pick up and 

unload the computers. Then the [VME] guys sorted, salvaged, 

rebuilt, and modified them so that disabled folks could use them 

more easily. We managed to donate 360 fully functional units,” 

Platt recalled proudly. “It goes along with my own personal philosophy 

that every project should be a win-winwin—a 

win for the community, a win for the 

company, and a win for the environment.” 

Platt put the same ingenuity and philosophy into 

motion when he began his campaign to design 

and build a “boundless” playground at his son’s 

school. 

“When you say playground, most people envision 

your standard swings, slides, and jungle 

gyms, but for kids with physical disabilities of all 

kinds, you have to think way beyond that. When 

Ruth Eason approached me, they had some 

ideas and very little money to buy the kind of 

equipment they needed. So we used our heads 

and came up with what turned out to be a fantastic 

addition to the school. For example, 

instead of a regular sandbox, which is low to the 

ground, we designed one on legs so that kids in 

wheelchairs could wheel right up under it. We also added a special 

railing around all four sides that they could use to lean against 

while they played in the sand. It’s incredible what you can do 

when you put your mind to it. The kids and the teachers were 

thrilled!” 

In addition to his work with VME, Platt also serves as vice chair 

for the Anne Arundel County, Maryland, Special Education 

Advisory Committee (a group of parents, community members, 

and educators who help shape the county’s special education 

programs), and works as a troop leader for his younger son’s Cub 

Scouts pack. When asked if he ever has any leisure time, Platt 

laughed. 

“I wouldn’t know what to do with myself. I think my wife would be 

happy if I slowed down a little. But I guess I’m just a high-energy 

kind of guy. And what I do with it all feels so right.”

Past UMUC Alumni Association 

President Janice H. Reilly ’90, who 

won the 2002 Edward A. Parnell 

Outstanding Alumna Award, visited 

another outstanding alumnus, Felix 

Alvarado ’86, in Texas to support his 

bid for a Congressional seat. 

THE RACE TO WASHINGTON: 

FELIX ALVARADO’S RUN FOR A 

CONGRESSIONAL SEAT 

By his own admission, UMUC alumnus Felix Alvarado ran an oldfashioned 

“horse race” in his bid to unseat Republican incumbent 

Joe Barton in Texas’ 6 th U.S. Congressional District. He didn’t win, 

but he certainly made a strong showing at the finish, garnering 

about 30 percent of the vote. 

As a career military man turned high school teacher, Alvarado knew what it would 

take to run a good race with honor, integrity, and determination. He began his 

military career after dropping out of high school to join the Army in 1961. Upon 

completing a six-year stint—and having risen to the rank of staff sergeant—he left 

the Army to join the Air Force, retiring after 21 years as a chief master sergeant (the 

highest noncommissioned rank), with a bachelor’s degree in business and management 

from UMUC and a master’s degree in management. As Alvarado put it, “I call 

myself a very rare person. It was pretty unusual for an enlisted man to have achieved 

so much educationally. But for a Hispanic enlisted man in 1988 . . . well, let me 

put it this way: back then we were still called Mexicans.” 

After retiring from the military, Alvarado went into the insurance business for a 

while, but decided he was far more interested in becoming a high school teacher. So 

back to school he went, receiving both his teacher’s and principal’s certificates from the 

University of Texas–Arlington in 1994, just as his GI Bill ran out. He now teaches 

social studies—mostly world geography—to high school students. 

Although Alvarado began his campaign for Congress as a virtual unknown, with no 

“war chest” and no key endorsements, he made great strides in his race against what 

he calls a “deeply entrenched opponent.” He attributed his growing popularity with 

voters to careful planning and a grassroots approach. 

“When I started the campaign, I had zero name recognition. The first priority was 

to get my name out there and, because I had very little money for TV ads and 

billboards, I walked a lot and I talked a lot,” Alvarado laughed. “I told people that 

I wanted to be their voice in Congress, not the voice of special interests and big 

business, like my opponent had become. And people started to listen. I think they 

knew that I care about the same things they care about—things that really matter 

to them at the end of the day, like the quality of the air they breathe and the future 

of their Social Security and Medicare benefits.” 

So even though he didn’t win a Congressional seat, Felix Alvarado came away a winner.

In 1978, Larry Hepinstall, then an area director for UMUC–Europe and later director 

of Alumni Relations, interviewed Lance Limoges in Heidelberg for a position teaching 

geology and geography. At the time, Limoges was working in Dharan, Saudi Arabia. 

Hepinstall was impressed with Limoges’ credentials and, after Limoges’ contractual 

obligations in Saudi Arabia were complete, Hepinstall offered him a position on Torrejon 

Air Base in Madrid. Unfortunately, Limoges could not accept. 

Flash forward to the spring of 2002. Limoges was living stateside, but had recently reapplied 

to teach overseas and was invited to UMUC’s Adelphi headquarters to interview. 

When asked how he knew about UMUC’s programs, Limoges produced a letter Hepinstall 

sent him after the 1978 interview. As it happened, Hepinstall—who now lives in Silver 

Spring, Maryland—was on the UMUC campus that very day for the annual Alumni 

Association meeting. Rosemary Hoffmann, who was assistant Mediterranean area director 

in 1978, was also on campus. The photo tells the rest of the story. 

In August 2002, Lance Limoges began teaching geography for UMUC–Asia.

GEOGRAPHIC CHAPTERS 

Howard County Chapter 

After the success of last May’s reception in Howard County, 

Maryland, honoring James Robey ’79, UMUC’s 2002 Distinguished 

Alumnus and the Howard County Executive, a planning committee 

was formed to establish a chapter in that area. Kate Perry ’97 

& ’01, a member of the Alumni Association board of directors, is 

leading the effort. The first meeting was held in the fall of 2002 

at the home of Fred Antenburg ’66, an attorney in Columbia, 

Maryland. Visit the Web site at umucalumni.org, for details about 

upcoming alumni activities in Howard County. 

San Antonio, Texas 

Alumni who attended a 

networking reception last 

spring in downtown San 

Antonio expressed great 

interest in forming a local 

chapter. With more than 

900 alumni in the area, the 

chapter has tremendous potential. If you want to join the planning 

committee and help Howard Cain ’68, who is spearheading 

this effort, contact him at cactop@aol.com.

UMUC Grad Gets Red-Carpet Treatment from Disney —by Alita Byrd 

Instead of attending a commencement 

ceremony with 

her fellow graduates in 

Adelphi, Maryland, this summer, 

Pamela Kemp marched 

down a red carpet in the 

executive suite of Disney 

Consumer Products in 

Burbank, California. Kemp— 

personal assistant to Andy 

Mooney, president of Disney 

Pamela Kemp 

Consumer Products—was 

unable to make the trip to UMUC to receive her diploma, 

so her co-workers arranged a mock graduation celebration for 

her instead. Family, friends, and colleagues were all in attendance 

as Mooney handed Kemp her diploma. Kemp’s graduation 

cap and gown came from Walt Disney’s prop department. 

“The plan was to take our executive floor and turn it into a 

commencement setting,” Kemp said. “The president would 


Munich/Augsburg/Mannheim Alumni Reunite in Washington, D.C. 

The Fourth Biannual Munich Reunion took place on October 12, 

2002, at the Capitol Brewery in Washington, D.C. More than 

300 alumni attended. Michelle Renee Thamer ’86, Theresa 

Kalmus Hoffer, and Carlton (“Woody”) Woodell ’63 put in 

countless hours organizing this great event that was enthusiastically 

enjoyed by all. Plans are underway for the Fifth Biannual 

Munich Reunion to be held in 2004 at UMUC’s headquarters in 

Adelphi, Maryland. 

Therese Kalmus, Michelle Thamer, Kelly Connors. 

act as the dean and hand me my diploma. He thought it was 

a great idea and agreed to do it.” 

“The ceremony was a big deal,” said Mooney. “We had a 

podium, red carpet, seating for 30, and a boom box playing 

Pomp and Circumstance.” 

Kemp is now the proud holder of a bachelor’s degree in management 

with a secondary emphasis in business and technology, 

all earned online from UMUC. Disney helped pay a portion 

of the cost of Kemp’s classes, and Mooney was pleased with 

the investment. 

“I applaud and support Pamela’s desire to continue her education,” 

Mooney said. “People are generally in awe of Pamela’s 

ability to find time to work at the level she does every day, 

study for so long, and be a great mom.” 

“It helped that I wasn’t tied to the typical structure of traditional 

school,” Kemp said. “I truly believe that online education 

will be the wave of the future by the time my children 

attend college.”

28 ACHIEVER

Dear Alumni and Friends of UMUC: 

As I enter my fourth year as president of this incredible university, I am still amazed by how often 

I hear the words, “UMUC changed my life!” The stories abound—a busy firefighter in Philadelphia 

who completed his bachelor’s degree completely online without missing a single day on the job; a 

young military wife for whom a much-needed (and much-deserved) UMUC scholarship allowed her 

to continue her education after the birth of her first child; an employee of the federal government 

who, when faced with a possible reduction in force at work, began attending classes at night to prepare 

for a new career in private industry. 

For many of you, UMUC has made it possible to reach new heights by offering access to excellent 

academic programs through state-of-the art technologies in many locations around the world. Given 

this experience, your continuing support, as alumni and friends, makes it possible for us to maintain 

that leading edge, thereby meeting—and often exceeding—the expectations of our students as they 

prepare to become leaders in an increasingly complex global community. 

Some of you have opened your checkbooks and made generous donations to support specific programs, 

to purchase equipment, or to underwrite one of our scholarship funds. Some of you have 

given just as generously of your time and talent to mentor students, to teach classes, or to help create 

cutting edge curricula. Still others have provided the valuable feedback that we need to improve and 

to enhance our academic offerings and student services. But regardless of how you choose to give, you 

are all, in your own way, changing the lives of the students who come to this university. 

So, on behalf of the 82,000 adult learners now enrolled at UMUC, along with our faculty and 

administrative staff, I thank you, our alumni and friends. Your leadership, achievements, and generosity 

amaze and inspire us all, and, because of you, we can continue changing lives by being what and 

where our students need us to be. 

Sincerely, 

Gerald A. Heeger 

President 

LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT 

29 ACHIEVER

Dear Friends: 

As chair of this year’s annual campaign, I would like to thank all of you who have contributed so 

generously over the years. Your support and good wishes have made UMUC what it is today. 

UMUC continues to play a unique role in the world of higher education. Its students enter at all 

ages and stages of life—some seeking professional advancement in their fields, others hoping for personal 

enrichment, and still others training for a second career. With this diversity in mind, all of the 

university’s programs and services are geared specifically to meeting the needs of adult learners. 

Toward that end, UMUC has become the international leader in anytime, anywhere learning—with a 

virtual campus that is second to none and classroom-based course offerings in more than 30 countries on 

all seven continents. Moreover, UMUC has established an excellent reputation for training real-world 

leaders in a rapidly changing global marketplace. The university is particularly well known for its 

degree programs in business management and information technology, both of which continue to 

propel graduates to the leading edge of today’s high-performance workplace. 

However, it costs a great deal to run a university of this caliber, especially in today’s highly competitive 

academic market. Tuition and state funding alone only cover the basics. Philanthropy plays a crucial 

role in underwriting the cost of innovation, and donations from alumni and friends make it possible 

to fund the scholarships that so many UMUC students depend on to continue their education. 

In the past, your generosity has helped UMUC underwrite financial aid, academic programs, technology 

development, and more. In doing so, as alumni, we add value to our degrees by promoting the university’s 

reputation. As friends, you become active participants in the future of higher education. 

But this year we ask you to dig a little deeper. UMUC has reached a critical juncture in its mission, 

and the stakes are higher than ever before. With Maryland now facing a deficit in excess of $1.5 billion, 

UMUC—like other Maryland state colleges and universities—will receive less state support until 

the budget crunch is over. At the same time, our students must tighten their belts as they deal with a 

faltering economy and job market. With this in mind, I would like to issue a challenge: If each of 

UMUC’s 100,000 active alumni gave $25, we would raise $2.5 million. For those who give more 

than $25, I challenge you to increase your giving by at least 25 percent. There is no doubt in my 

mind that, for all of you, the return will be well worth the investment. 

Sincerely, 

Frank Kent, Chair

THE BACKBONE OF UMUC’S FINANCIAL SUPPORT 

Lieutenant Colonel Wallace H. (“Wally”) Currey ’61 (U.S. Army, Ret.) may not be able to match 

the generosity of UMUC’s largest donors and corporate sponsors, but he is still among the university’s 

most valued supporters—one of hundreds who make regular, if modest, contributions, 

helping to establish a secure base from which the university can pursue its mission. 

Currey graduated from UMUC more than 40 years ago, after attending classes in Berlin, Germany, 

where he was stationed and serving as the Army finance officer. 

“I had a very positive experience,” Currey said. “Our education officer designed a curriculum 

especially for me. Most of the classes were conducted by UMUC, but two courses—one in economics and one in military 

history—weren’t offered. UMUC worked with our education officer to contact qualified, accredited instructors in the Berlin 

area who could help me. So I ended up taking a tutorial course from the wife of an Army colonel and another from a lieutenant 

colonel who was our intelligence officer.” 

Currey was grateful for the opportunity and flexibility that UMUC offered, and when his wife passed away and he was thinking 

of establishing a memorial in her honor, he immediately thought of UMUC. In 1998, Currey began contributing to the 

Patricia I. Currey Scholarship Fund, which will provide aid to students pursuing careers in the mental health professions. 

He continues to contribute $100 each month. 

“It’s not a huge amount, but it keeps adding up. My intent,” he said simply, “is to continue [building it] for the rest of my life.”

NEW VP FOR ADVANCEMENT BRINGING WEALTH— 

AND WEALTH OF EXPERIENCE—TO UMUC 

by Andrea Martino 

It doesn’t take long to realize that Sandy Harriman, 

UMUC’s new vice president for Advancement, 

knows everybody! Behind that quiet demeanor and 

bashful smile is an apparently endless source of 

contacts. There aren’t enough Rolodexes and PDAs 

to track the people she knows from her native 

Atlanta, Georgia, north to Howard, Montgomery, 

and Baltimore counties in Maryland, and across 

the country. 

Quiet though she may seem, in barely three years 

at the university, Harriman has been personally responsible for the largest 

donation in UMUC’s history—a gift of $1.6 million of ancient Chinese art 

that led to the establishment of UMUC’s Art of China collection. (Working 

with the donors, she later obtained another $200,000 of contributions to the 

collection.) 

“She is very persistent,” said I-Ling Chow, the lead donor who envisioned the 

establishment of the Art of China collection. Chow contributed art and real property 

valued at more than $800,000 and credited Harriman for closing the deal. 

“I met Sandy when she worked at another Maryland college,” Chow said, “and 

when that college did not contact me after Sandy moved on to UMUC, she 

waited a respectable two months and contacted me again. That is when I made 

my first contribution to UMUC. I appreciate very much that she is so ethical. 

That is important to me and very key to the Chinese culture.” 

The university’s popular Better Opportunities Through Online Education 

program has also benefited from Harriman’s expertise, securing an additional 

$450,000 in corporate funding from Morgan Stanley Dean Witter. And, not 

surprisingly, UMUC now enjoys the closest relationship ever with advancement 

professionals at the University System of Maryland (USM) headquarters. 

“I am delighted with Sandy’s promotion to vice president,” said John Martin, 

vice chancellor for advancement at USM. “She is an outstanding development 

professional, combining knowledge and expertise with personal qualities of 

warmth and thoughtfulness, which are all required for success in her field.” 

Given the wealth of experience Harriman brings to UMUC—she served at 

both Howard and Montgomery colleges, as well as in the federal government, 

at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services—success is virtually guaranteed 

here as well. And for that, the entire university can be thankful.

48 ACHIEVER 

With grants totaling $113,000 from both 

the Verizon and NEC Foundations, 

UMUC’s ADE initiative (Accessibility in 

Distance Education) is off to a flying start. 

This public/private partnership was 

launched in an effort to make UMUC’s 

virtual campus far more user friendly for students 

with a wide range of physical and 

learning disabilities. ADE will build upon 

the UMUC–Verizon Virtual Resource Site 

for Teaching with Technology by creating 

new pages devoted solely to using state-ofthe-art 

adaptive technologies that promote 

greater accessibility to Web resources for 

people with disabilities. 

Research conducted over the past decade found that students with disabilities 

not only are far less likely to enroll in college within five years of high school 

graduation, but also have somewhat lower collegiate expectations than their 

non-disabled counterparts. Educators believe that these disparities are closely 

related to the barriers many of these individuals experience when attempting 

to access traditional, campus-based degree programs. Online education, therefore, 

has been touted as a far more accessible commodity, especially for people 

with special challenges. However, as Nick Allen, UMUC’s academic provost, 

points out, there are still access problems with Web-based education, particularly 

when it comes to instructional effectiveness for diverse learners. 

“Like other advances, UMUC’s ADE is intended to help faculty learn more 

about what they need to do to be effective teachers—for all students, including 

the challenged,” Allen emphasizes.

SERENA COOK—ON HER WAY UP 

No two ways about it; Serena Cook is a go-getter. And it’s 

precisely that quality that made it possible for her to become 

UMUC’s first Better Opportunities Through Online 

Education graduate—while raising three active kids with her 

husband, Edward, and holding down a full-time position as 

human resources assistant with CVS Drugs. 

Cook’s career retraining began nearly nine years ago when, while 

working as a nursing assistant and poised to begin nursing 

school, she was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. A career 

in nursing was out of the question, given the strenuous activity 

that accompanies patient care. Undaunted, Cook began to 

look at her options and checked into job training programs 

offered through Goodwill Industries of the Chesapeake, in 

Baltimore. 

“At the time, Goodwill had a clerical and computer skills 

training program that seemed to fit my needs pretty well. But 

I couldn’t qualify for it because I wasn’t receiving public assistance. 

Can you believe it? Of course, back in 1994, we were 

in the early stages of welfare-to-work reform. But after looking 

at my choices, I decided that Goodwill was the way to go 

and I did what I had to do to make it work. I applied for social 

services.” 

After completing the program’s classroom portion, Cook was 

placed in a six-month internship at Johns Hopkins University 

“to see how well I would fit into the clerical working environment.” 

In fact, she adapted to it so well that Goodwill offered 

her a job as a program assistant in their burgeoning career 

development division. It proved difficult, not because of the 

workload, but because of the many hours she had to spend 

sitting behind a desk. 

“With the arthritis, it was hard to sit all day. But Goodwill 

wanted me to stay, and offered me a job as a mobile admissions 

coordinator. In that position, I went to sites all around 

Baltimore enrolling folks in Goodwill programs. I really enjoyed 

it, but was looking to keep moving up. In 1998, Goodwill 

asked me to become the administrative assistant to the president. 

I was a bit worried at first that I would be sitting too 

much again. But I felt that I could learn a lot from this 

woman, and she was very flexible with me, especially when 

she saw how much I wanted to grow and learn. Because I 

had made a two-year commitment to her that I intended to 


keep, she was willing to let me train in a lot of different areas, 

as long as I accomplished what she needed done.” 

Before long, Cook was organizing career fairs, streamlining the 

career development database, and setting up employee rewards 

and recognitions programs. She had found her true passion— 

the world of human resources—and would soon join CVS. She 

also heard about UMUC’s Better Opportunities Through 

Online Education program, which was then in its pilot stage, a 

career development partnership between UMUC and Goodwill 

Industries of the Chesapeake. 

“I have to admit I was skeptical at first, because I’m skeptical 

about anything that calls itself free,” Cook said. “I’m always 

asking, ‘What’s the catch?’ I mean, it sounded too good to be 

true—free tuition, free computer, free assistance. However, my 

boss finally convinced me that there was no catch, and I contacted 

[program director] Beverly Lucas at UMUC.” Cook 

enrolled in May 2000. 

As a lifelong self-starter, Cook had already completed some 

coursework at Sojourner-Douglass College in Baltimore, but 

found that classroom-based learning was extremely challenging 

with three kids at home. 

“Even though Sojourner-Douglass had onsite daycare and would 

help my kids with their homework, I still felt that I was the one 

who was ultimately responsible for making sure they understood 

their lessons. We were also not getting home sometimes until 

10 o’clock at night, when we were all exhausted, and then getting 

up bright and early the next morning for school and work. 

UMUC and Better Opportunities made it possible for me to fit 

school into my lifestyle, not the other way around.” 

Cook now loves online learning. As she put it, “Online, I can 

study whenever I want to, even at 2 o’clock in the morning if 

I can’t sleep. And it helps me manage my time better. If I know 

I have a week to complete an online assignment, I can figure 

out what I need to do each day to meet that deadline.” 

As the program’s first “graduate” (Cook completed her general 

business studies certificate in June, one year ahead of the threeyear 

program schedule), she found Better Opportunities to be 

“pretty great all the way around.” She now has her sights set on 

earning her Professional Human Resources (PHR) certificate and 

completing a four-year degree—online, from UMUC, of course.
