President’s Message
imagine a Place...
Berea College 1855 and 2005
Imagine a place before the Civil War in slaveholding
Kentucky where people are respected as equals—blacks and
whites, men and women, residents from North and South.

antislavery advocates
openly expressed their prejudice
about the inferiority of people of
African descent.
In 1855 a utopian experiment in a wilderness settlement founded by a Kentucky preacher named John Gregg Fee
challenged this status quo. Fee fervently believed that the Bible
argues for the equality of all people, saying “God has made of
one blood all peoples of the earth” (Acts 17:26). His powerful,
radical vision of impartial love inspired an enduring countercultural community; 150 years later, its 550 workers and 1500
learners still recite the same core values. In our sesquicentennial year, we celebrate that early utopian community we now
know as Berea College.
By the time John G. Fee, the 36-year-old Presbyterian
minister, founded Union Church (1853) and the Berea ridge
settlement, he was already an ardent abolitionist writer recognized by antislavery leaders in Cincinnati, Cleveland, Boston,
Philadelphia, and New York. Looking back on Fee’s early utopian experiment, we ask ourselves what lessons learned might
offer us direction for our 21st century Berea College?
Thinking Beyond “Conventional Wisdom”
From Fee’s early experiment we learn that conventional
wisdom and traditional institutions struggle to address the
weighty issues of their day. Churches, colleges, and political
institutions commonly reflect their culture’s current thinking, rather than offer solutions to society’s complex challenges.
Quite often the best solutions arise beyond, or at the margins
of, accepted social conventions.
Fee argued not simply for the end of slavery but for
the elimination of caste, which assumed that blacks and women
were constitutionally inferior. He argued against the norms of
the day, present in the realms of both church and state, that
perpetuated prejudice against the poor, women, and blacks.

then the College, its innovative ideas, and their advocates were
called “radical” in their day, even though these ideas represent
values that have persisted over two millennia. It is one thing to
hold idealistic notions, and quite another to act upon them!
Taking a Risk
Early on, the Berea community debated the best ways
to move forward its egalitarian agenda. Because they lacked
contemporary models to follow, they experimented with the
social issues and observed the results. Would women attending
classes with men dilute the quality of academic studies? Could
freed blacks participate in the classes and literary clubs, reading
the same poetry and literature as whites?

intellectual quality of study. When Berea integrated blacks
and whites into their classes and co-curricular societies, every
student thrived. New learning opportunities arose for talented
black students like Julia Britton Hooks (who ended up teaching music at the College while she was still a student) and
James Bond (who in 1892 was the senior chosen to speak at his

Julian Bond, represent the Berea legacy in very human terms in

Programs
Before Berea College, Cathy Cottrell found herself alone raising two children—a
teen and a toddler. She couldn’t imagine how she and her family could go on. “In front
of me was something I couldn’t name—it was a void,” she says. Through a few twists of
fate, Cathy and her five-year-old child, Lane, arrived in Berea. At the age of 45, Cathy felt
she had been given a new start.
After leaving an abusive marriage and moving into government housing, she twice
received a mailbox flyer for the New Opportunity School for Women. She desperately
wanted the enrichment and job counseling opportunities that the New Opportunity
School provided, but was unable to find appropriate child care. Her caseworker suggested a radical new path: Why not apply instead to Berea College?
Attending Berea meant adapting to a new world for both Cathy and Lane. It meant
leaving behind her family, who had never attended college themselves and did not understand her decision. After Lane changed schools he missed his former life in Lexington.
Rather than walk away, Cathy quelled her fears and continued her studies. As a nontraditional student, Cathy and her son needed a community’s support.
Berea’s commitment to student parents has given Cathy the means to keep going. She
and Lane live in an apartment at the Ecovillage, a model community for sustainable living.
Ecovillage residents share resources, such as
transportation, laundry facilities, study space,
and recycling service. Although older than most
of her classmates, Cathy appreciates their fresh
perspectives.
She fondly recalls her first convocation as
she sat inside Phelps Stokes Auditorium, with its
polished wood and decades of history.
“I really felt I had been transported
to a new place.”
Cathy intends to pursue her
interest in writing and photography. “I want to be a journalist,
but not someone who stands
out in front of cameras. Rather
I want to connect with community,”
she says. “I want to capture community and I want to capture humanity. I hope I have
something important to show that I can pass on.”
Meanwhile, Cathy’s oldest child, Kristin Lawson, is studying political science at
Eastern Kentucky University in Richmond; she plans to attend graduate school. “She’s
got huge aspirations,” Cathy says. Not unlike her mother.

Philosophy
Alex Gibson has walked a hard road
with integrity. His mother was disabled
in a freak accident; his father spent time
in prison. “Everybody has their demons,”
Alex says. “Those were mine.” By the time
he turned 16 both of his parents had died.
He credits Mary McLaughlin,TRIO director at Berea College, for changing his life.
Through her intervention, Alex attended Berea’s Upward Bound program, then Piney Woods
High School in Mississippi, and now Berea College, where he works as a Bonner Scholar.
Intending to become a criminal defense attorney championing the poor, Alex says,
“Berea showed me the connections between poor blacks and poor whites.” Ultimately,
he hopes to become a judge. “The power that comes with that position must be derived
from a philosophical perspective. Philosophy is the rigorous pursuit of the truth—regardless of creed or race.”
He attributes his interest in ethics to Nick Fama, ’04, a former Berea student who
taught a summer course to Upward Bound students. “His class made me think about
life—not just memorize a formula. I had to decide what I believed.” Alex believes in persevering through difficulties.
“If it’s easy, I don’t want it,” he says. “When I see what has happened to people who
took the easy route, I don’t mind taking a more difficult path.” He embraces President
Shinn’s challenge of learning to live upstream, even if it means living a less comfortable
life. “It is the right thing to do,” he says.
By following his heart, Alex arrived in Berea; by following his heart, he will continue
to make something of his life. “I can’t be someone who takes the easy road, then looks
back one day and thinks of the things I wish I had done.” Working toward his goal of becoming a doctor of jurisprudence has meant studying, keeping up with his labor position,
working as freshman class president, and now sophomore vice president and speaker of
the Senate. “I don’t want to make it seem like I’ve just stepped through all my troubles,”
Alex says, then quotes Dr. Michelle Tooley, quoting Mother Jones. “Pray for the dead, but
fight like hell for the living.”

Growing up in Ecuador, Debbie Ruiz always knew she would go to college. “Education is our family’s first goal. Mom said she’d be on my back until I graduate.” She
imitates her mother’s voice. “‘Afterward, you can do whatever, but first your education!’”
When she first arrived in Berea, Debbie, who grew up in a strict family, experienced culture shock. “Perhaps I carried a narrow view of others,” she admits, but
her view soon changed. “I met people from so many parts of the world, different skin
colors, beliefs, religions, and politics. At first, it was hard talking about our differences.
Now, I accept people as they are. We share so many things.”
Attending the Cosmopolitan Club every Friday night prompted Debbie’s broadened perspective. Through the club she made new international and Appalachian
friends who learned about each other’s cultural experiences.
Debbie got so involved that she became Cosmo Club president this year. Through
the club she has traveled the United States, introducing others to her culture. “I see
how important it is for American students to experience other cultures.”
She also has traveled abroad, including a short-term environmental sciences trip to
the Galapagos Islands, a part of Ecuador in the Pacific Ocean that she could not afford
to visit previously. “It was pretty amazing,” she says. “That I was the only fluent Spanish
speaker, was a great help to the group, too.”
As club president, Debbie works with council members on budgeting, planning, and
organizing events. “I’ve come to know so many different
students through our activities,” she says. The Cosmo
Club reaches beyond the College, sharing dances with
the community and helping Upward Bound and community school students discover a wider world. “Little
kids love having us visit. They see how different the
world really is.”
Debbie cherishes her time spent at Berea College. “Every single class, every activity—from food service to convocations—everything has changed
my point of view.You see so many people, get
all these perspectives.” In the process of opening herself to this community, Debbie has learned “to
be okay with everything, to stop being afraid of
the unusual.”
She smiles broadly, and says understatedly,
“I’ve changed a lot.”

“Words cannot express the
beauty that is still in this world. I feel
that I have been given more through
my service with Habitat for Humanity
than I can ever hope to give back,”
says Hans Burkholder. “This is not
just about building houses. It is about
reminding us of human worth, from
both serving and being served.”
A native of Singers Glen,
Virginia, Hans has worked for the
past two years with CELTS (Center
for Excellence in Learning Through Service), first with the Bonner Scholars Program and
then with Habitat for Humanity, for which he works as the program manager. “My experience has been somewhat unique in that I have been fortunate enough to be part of a
program that emphasizes the purpose and relevance of our work. Through CELTS, I have
been encouraged and empowered to more actively involve myself in bettering the community that I became a part of when I arrived in Berea,” says Hans.
Aside from working with the Bonner Scholars and Habitat, Hans has divided his summers between working on his parents’ farm and volunteering. During the summer of 2004,
he worked as a full-time counselor at Highland Retreat, a summer youth camp. “It taught
me so much, not only about teaching, but also about myself and the God who gifted me
with a deep love for kids and learning, and a desire to teach.”
Hans plans to continue his involvement in service projects by becoming an environmental education teacher. “As stewards of the earth, I think it’s our duty to not abuse the
land that we live on. It is our responsibility to respect the earth.”
Flowers and fruit are only the beginning.
In the seed lies the life and the future.

Berea Beloved
…A flower nurtured by a plain
And watered by the mountain rain
May you ever flourish there
O Berea, the beautiful, the fair.
