I’m talking about doing your daily work honestly and faithfully, about volunteering on a Saturday when you would much rather sleep in, and about acting with integrity when no one is even looking. You will find countless opportunities to be grateful, generous and steadfast. On behalf of Bryn Athyn College (the faculty, administration, staff, Board and Corporation) I wish you well and thank you for spending precious years with us. We are proud of you. We will miss you more than you know. And we are eager to see the influence and life force of the College spreading out into the world through the reach of your own lives. Dr. Kristin King, with this “Farewell,” also said goodbye to the presidency of the College, in which role she has served for the past five years. In the fall she will return to her beloved classroom as an associate professor of English. She lives in Bryn Athyn with her husband, the Rev. Dr. Jonathan S. Rose. Contact: [email protected] 383
