“We writers know that good dialogue is precious. Especially the kind that you can’t-no-way-not-a-chance make up on your own.”

The Kenyon Review invited the campus to create “erasure poems” in conjunction with the 2013 literary festival, which featured poet Carl Phillips.
You “write” an erasure poem by artfully removing words from an existing poem. Challenge: turn the Odyssey into a haiku.
Before the pandemic, Phillip E. Wilson Jr. and one of his daughters went on a service trip with Xela AID to Guatemala and, based on that experience, he was invited to join its board. So terrific to be working alongside Phil, rolling up our sleeves for others.” John and Phil were looking forward to their service trip together this summer
Jeffrey L. Bennett, Midland, Michigan, hails, “Greetings! Things are going great up here in Michigan! Susie and I enjoy hanging out with the families of our son Chris and daughter Katie. Susie is working on many art projects, and I’m volunteering at the Sloan Museum of Discovery in Flint. I never would’ve imagined when I started buying used cars at the Flint Auto Auction in 1975 that I would be working at a museum in that town. Of course, back then I never thought I would make a career as a college professor, either! I am also working on three car-show charity fund-raisers — one for the Sloan Museum; one for the American Cancer Society, held in Bay City, Michigan, which has raised $329,000 for that charity since 1995; and one we just started last year for Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church in Midland. I am beginning to adjust to retirement, although I miss my classes and students. I will always remember my years at Kenyon, my classmates, and professors. Kenyon changed my life.”
Elizabeth B. Friedberg, Melrose, Massachusetts, updates, “After 37 years, I retired from the Massachusetts Historical Commission, the state historic preservation agency, where I was director of the National Register program. I loved my job and the work we did, but it was the right time to move on. So far I’ve been keeping busy with home projects and enjoying quilting and pottery and my vegetable garden, and I hope to do some traveling. My husband, Drew McCoy, continues to teach American history at Clark University. And the apples don’t fall far from the tree. Our daughter, Laura, recently got her Ph.D. in history; she and Tim married last summer, and she is working at the greater Chicago YWCA as coordinator for a program on diversity, equity and inclusion. Our fourth family history major, our son, Ethan, is communications manager for Grassroot Soccer, a nonprofit that uses soccer to engage adolescents in developing countries in health-related issues.”
