Families, friends
and former colleagues of Sidney Detlefsen, associate

from 1968-1980; William R. Powell, associate dean of

dean of Student Life from 1971-1988, gathered Wednesday
afternoon to share memories and honor the three for
their contributions to the office.

that we are still building on today," said assistant
dean
of students Mary Ellen Sims.
