Wittenberg Memories...
"Professionally many of the concepts I learned during my years at Wittenberg I use now, although they have been renamed or slightly reworked. Personally I attended during difficult social and political times and I graduated with strong values developed through my friendships and association with various staff members. Friends included Maggie Brandson, Nancy Archer Pappoon, Dora Fitsimmons Daniluk, Mary Spencer, Connie Wakeland McKee. Professors I remember most include Dean Heimtraut Dietrich, Dr. Robert Hartje and Betty Dillahunt. Wittenberg handled controversy straight-on. Faculty, administration and students would gather in the Union for informal discussions after major events."
