Children’s Author and Poet
David L. Harrison
David Harrison’s first book for children, The Boy
With a Drum, was released in 1969 and eventually
sold more than 2 million copies. In 1972, Harrison
won national recognition when he received the
Christopher Award for The Book of Giant Stories.
Since then he has published 76 original titles that have
sold more than 15 million copies and earned numerous
honors. He has been anthologized in more than 100
books and appeared in dozens of magazines and
professional journals.
His work has been translated into twelve
languages and presented on television, radio, cassette,
and CD-ROM. His poetry inspired Sandy Asher’s
school play, Somebody Catch My Homework, which has been produced in the United States and
abroad. Jesse and Grace, a fourth-grade best friends’ play in poetry, has been praised for its
“honesty of characters and use of art and music.” Harrison’s “Sky High on Reading” program
was the International Reading Association’s nationwide winner in 2001. The Missouri Librarian
Association presented him with its 2007 Literacy Award for the body of his work.
Among Harrison’s professional books are Easy Poetry Lessons That Dazzle and Delight,
with Bernice Cullinan (Scholastic); Using the Power of Poetry to Teach Language Arts, Social
Studies, Math, and More, with Kathy Holderith (Scholastic); “Yes, Poetry Can,” the poetry
chapter for Children’s Literature in the Reading Program (3rd Edition, edited by Deborah
Wooten and Bernice Cullinan; coming in 2009, IRA); Partner Poems for Building Fluency: 40
Engaging Poems for Two Voices With Motivating Activities That Help Students Improve Their
Fluency and Comprehension, with Tim Rasinski and Gay Fawcett, (coming in 2009, Scholastic);
and Phonemic Awareness through Poetry Play, with Mary Jo Fresch, (in progress, IRA).
In the last fifteen years he has been a keynote speaker, banquet speaker, featured speaker,
featured author, or presenter at 80 state, regional, and national conferences in twenty-seven
states. Harrison holds science degrees from Drury and Emory universities and honorary
doctorate of letters degrees from Missouri State University and Drury University. He is poet
laureate of Drury and lives in Springfield, Missouri, with his wife Sandy, a retired guidance
counselor.

Alpha Chi’s 2009
Distinguished Alumnus
Dr. Robert W. Sledge
Southwestern University alumnus
Dr. Robert W. Sledge, one of the most
important figures in the history of Alpha Chi, is
being honored as the Distinguished Alumnus of
2009. A retired distinguished professor of history at
McMurry University and now historian-in-residence at the McWhiney Research Foundation in
Abilene, Texas, Sledge served almost three decades of elective leadership with Alpha Chi,
including twelve years as national president.
Sledge became a member of Alpha Chi in 1951 at Southwestern University in Georgetown,
Texas, home of the Texas Alpha chapter and site of the 1922 founding of the honor society that
would become Alpha Chi. He graduated from Southwestern with majors in mathematics,
physics, and history, then earned the B.D. degree from Southern Methodist University and the
M.A. and Ph.D. degrees in history from the University of Texas.
With his historian’s skills and his connection to Alpha Chi’s birthplace, Sledge was the
natural choice to be commissioned to write the book-length history, Scholarship and Character:
Seventy-five Years of Alpha Chi, published in 1997 to mark the anniversary of the society’s
founding in 1922.
Two years later, in 1999, he completed his third term as president of the National Council
and a total of twenty-four years on that governing body, including terms as secretary and vice
president as well as president. The Council immediately asked him to serve an appointment as
archivist, a role he filled from 1999 to 2008.
Sledge began his career at McMurry in 1964 and became assistant sponsor of the Texas
Upsilon chapter in 1967 and then head sponsor in 1968, a responsibility he held until 1991.
During the 1990s he continued to work as an assistant sponsor. He also served Region I in the
1970s as vice president and president.
Among Rob Sledge’s many accomplishments as Alpha Chi’s president was the creation of
awards to recognize the service of chapter sponsors and others who have contributed
significantly to the society’s ideals. Little could he have expected that one day one of these
awards, the Distinguished Alumni Award, would come his way.
Dr. Sledge’s book of Alpha Chi history will be on sale at AX Central during registration and the student
presentation sessions. The cost is $10 (cash or check only).
