A Message from President Ronald L. May
The 2011-12 Academic Year began on Monday,
August 22. It marked the 42nd year that I have
welcomed students back to the colleges and
universities I have served since 1970. The hustle
and bustle of having students, faculty and staff
back on campus is, in its own way, reassuring.
As I came to the office on Monday, August
22nd, a student with a rather confused look on
his face was standing nearby in the hallway with
his class schedule in his hand. As I unlocked the
door to my office I asked if he needed help. He
said he was looking for his classroom. I looked at
his schedule, found the room number and walked
down the hallway with him to his classroom.
While walking to the classroom he indicated that
he had transferred to Ancilla from one of Indiana’s
large public universities. As we arrived at his
classroom he noticed my nametag and realized
I was President of Ancilla. I wished him well,
shook his hand and turned to go back to my office. He stopped me and thanked me for helping him. He went on to say that the president of his prior
university had never helped him find a classroom. I assured him that my knowledge of that president
suggested to me that had he had the opportunity
to assist the young man he surely would have
done so.
I share that story not to give myself a pat on
the back. Instead, it is to remind you of the type
of college Ancilla intentionally tries to be every
day. You see, I have no doubt that any member of
the faculty or staff at Ancilla would have helped
the young man find his classroom that morning. It is who we are and reflective of the commitment
each of us has to serving the students who come
to Ancilla College. It has been that way since 1937
when the Poor Handmaids first opened Ancilla
Domini College. It has been that way since Ancilla
was opened to the public in 1966. Those of you
who are alumni have direct knowledge of this
commitment.
Ancilla College has enjoyed significant success
in recent years. This success includes increased
enrollments, balanced budgets, strengthened
academic offerings, new programs, and bachelor’s
degree programs brought to campus by Calumet
College of St. Joseph. We anticipate that
additional bachelor’s degree programs will be
brought to the campus in the next few years. We
are greatly encouraged by those successes.
However, challenges remain. For example, we
have significantly increased funding for merit and
need based grant programs available for students
attending the college. Our ability to do that is
limited to the annual financial support the college
receives from the Poor Handmaids and from
donors like each of you. Those of us at Ancilla
are well aware of the difficult economic situation
facing our nation. That situation impacts each of
us in different ways. Despite those difficulties,
annual support from our alumni, friends,
foundations, corporations and many others has
been sustained and slightly increased. It is our
hope that in the years ahead you can continue to
provide generous support to Ancilla College.
Thank you for your support of Ancilla College
this past year. It enables those of us who work on
the campus to provide committed service to our
students every day. Ancilla College is a liberal arts institution of higher learning sponsored by the Poor Handmaids of Jesus Christ. The College’s religious tradition is Roman
Catholic; its climate ecumenical. In a caring environment, Ancilla serves a diverse population as we transform and emp ower students to achieve high academic
goals, lifelong learning, successful careers and values-centered lives.

Marie Albertson ‘A Real Late Bloomer’
W
hen a 78-year-old woman
exhibits as much life and
energy as anyone you
have ever met, it certainly grabs
your attention.
Marie Albertson (AC ’93) is that
78 year old.
She is a woman who can’t quench
her thirst for life. According to
common public sentiment, people
her age are supposed to be scaling
back, taking it easy. She clearly
didn’t get the memo.
Her energy is noticeable from the
get-go.
When the former librarian arrives
at the Westfield Public Library in
Westfield, IN, she doesn’t wait
for an opening question to begin
the interview. She begins the
interview for me.
“I’m a proud alumnus of Ancilla College,
where I started,” says Albertson, who
was 47 years old when she began
attending. “I was only going to take one
class, Writing, and I ended up with Sr.
Mary Dolores.
“[Sr. Mary Dolores] says to me, ‘You
have to go on,’ and you do what a nun
says!”
At this point, Albertson begins excitedly
recalling her time as a student at Ancilla
College - a place she refers to as her
favorite place in the whole world.
most people have written the bulk of
their life stories. By age 60, I would
learn, Marie Albertson was just getting
started.
Albertson spent most of her life in
Plymouth, married for 40 years to
her husband, Bob, who died in 1997.
The couple raised two sons and two
daughters.
One thing Albertson has proven able
to do is cope with change. Upon her
husband’s passing, Albertson could
have stayed in Plymouth and continued
the life she always had there.
She began taking one class at a time at
Ancilla until she finished her degree. Immediately afterwards, Albertson
went on to earn her bachelor’s in Liberal
Arts from Indiana University-South
Bend
Instead, she decided to move.
She would take a position at Plymouth
Public Library and continue her studies,
eventually earning a master’s in Library
Science by age 60.
“I was age 63 with a master’s,” joked
Albertson with a laugh. “Who could
turn me down?”
At age 63, Albertson headed to
Indianapolis with the sole purpose of
looking for a job. Was it a bit crazy?
Perhaps.
“I’m a real late bloomer,” she quipped.
What would follow were, in her words,
the longest two weeks of her life.
That’s an understatement. By age 60,
Her first interview was with a man who,
4
Ancilla College Accent • Fall 2011
according to Albertson, “looked like he
was about 12 years old.”
“He leaned across the table and asked,
‘How much longer do you plan to
work?’” she recalled.
It was hardly a good sign.
After two weeks, however, Albertson
finally landed a job - a position at the
Indiana State Library, across from the
Capitol Building.
There, she would work in Library
Development, working with
institutional libraries in prisons and
mental institutions.
She eventually transitioned to a position
at the Westfield Public Library, the same
place where our interview takes place.
Still, she was hardly done changing, and
one of the greatest chapters in her life
had yet to be written.
Her life completely changed at age
65. That’s when Marie Albertson
discovered kayaking.
It started off simply enough. The
always active Albertson took up
kayaking - a physically active hobby
that would allow her to see new areas
of the United States.
Albertson kayaked the Colorado River.
Then she kayaked at Yellowstone.
Eventually, she kayaked in Utah,
Alaska, Oregon, and Georgia.
She would camp along rivers and stay
in tents. Along the way she would
meet plenty of interesting people,
people who had been all over the
world.
Their stories fascinated her. She
heard them speak with excitement of
all the things they had seen in their
travels, things people could never
experience within the confines of the
United States.
Albertson has never been one to live
vicariously through others. After
she had heard tale after tale of these
travels all over the world, she made a
life-changing decision.
She toured Ireland and kissed the
Blarney Stone. She visited Egypt,
where she rode camels around the
pyramids and visited the Sphinx.
came during a trip to Florida. For a
small fee, Albertson was allowed to
try her hand at flying through the air
on the circus trapeze.
“I loved Egypt,” she said. “I missed
the revolution, though. I hope I didn’t
cause it.”
“It’s a lot harder than it looks on TV!”
she exclaimed.
Then came her favorite trip – Australia.
There, she kayaked on the Coral Sea.
She also experienced “tree surfing,”
the art of zip lining through a forest.
Needless to say, the younger
Australians in the group were quite
impressed by the spirit of the older
American.
She jumped out of an airplane in
Greensburg, IN, at age 75 and is
quick to add, “I would definitely do
it again.”
One of the more unique activities
She went on a “Mustang” trip in
the Sierra Nevada mountain range
in Eastern California where she had
the chance to observe the mustang
population in the area.
Others who were there voted her
“Cowgirl of the Week.”
Albertson hasn’t visited Antarctica
yet, mostly because she hasn’t saved
up the money needed to make the trip.
This all may sound unlikely to the
average person. What person does
all of this in a lifetime? Never mind
someone who claims to have done
“I decided to do that too,” she said.
And so, Marie Albertson, in her late
60s, made it her goal to visit each and
every continent.
She began booking low-budget trips
by traveling with Elder-hostel’s Road
Scholar Educational Adventures and
Overseas Adventure Travel.
Before long, she was walking on the
Great Wall of China. She visited
the Galapagos Islands off the coast
of Ecuador. She crossed a bamboo
bridge in the Amazon jungle. She
met a medicine man in full regalia.
She snorkeled with sea lions in Guam
and swam in the Mediterranean Sea.
She visited Morocco and camped in
the Sahara Desert for three nights.
She took a balloon ride across the
Moroccan city of Marrakech. She
traveled by camel and even met a
nomad family.
“We toured the whole country,”
she recalled of Morocco. “It was a
beautiful country. They had a new
young king who had paved the roads
and electrified the country.”

most of this merely in her 70s.
But Albertson doesn’t see it that way.
She doesn’t find it odd or unusual. She
just can’t understand why others aren’t
doing it too.
“I was probably a hyper kid, but no
one diagnosed it in those days,” said
Albertson. “Now I’m a hyper old lady.
“I always liked challenges. I have a
great curiosity. That’s what motivated
me. I’m not afraid of change. To move
here was a huge change and with no
job…I can’t believe I did such a dumb
thing! My sense of humor has helped
me in difficult times.”
As Albertson looks around, she sees
so many others her age who won’t let
themselves live that life, and it saddens
her. It makes no sense. So Albertson,
being the take-action person she is,
decided to do something about it.
She went back to school.
Albertson earned an associate’s in
counseling at age 70 and became a “Life
Coach for Women of Age & Sage.”
“I would like to coach older women and
encourage them to live adventurous
lives, not just sit and play cards,” said
Albertson. “It’s never too late. You’re
never too old. That’s what I want people
to know.
“Most of this started when I was 70. I’m
78 now, and I’m thinking about going to
Russia or maybe go on a London-ParisRome trip. What I want to do is inspire
women and encourage them.
“You should do something different
every day, even if you brush your teeth
with your left hand.”
This is a 78 year old who recently
completed the Tri Ancilla Sprint
Triathlon, where she swam 500 yards,
biked 11 miles, and ran three miles with
the help of her grandson. Though she
admits she was so far behind during
the biking portion that the ambulance
followed her, she still completed the
race.
That accomplishment was dedicated
to none other than Sr. Mary Dolores,
of whom Albertson says, “She saved
my life.”
It’s that type of adventurous nature she
wants to inspire others with.
“I have great faith in women,” said
Albertson. “At some point, you forget
how strong you are. I hate to read
an obituary of a woman who hasn’t
fulfilled her desires.”
She created a homemade pamphlet to
distribute to those very women she
wishes to help. It’s filled with pictures
of her taken all over the world, from
jumping out of the
airplane to riding a
camel in the Sahara to
crossing the bamboo
bridge in the Amazon.
On the back is a handpicked poem, one that
certainly fits the life
she is trying to live:
--The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock
T.S. Eliot
This is the best way Albertson knows
to live her life. She wants to see and
experience all she can.
Albertson is as full of life as anyone
you will meet. The energy she carries
herself with is incredibly contagious,
and one can’t help but be charmed by
this mixture of warmth, charisma, and
sense of humility.
As we wind up the interview, she looks
at me and asks a serious question.
“I would like to write a book,” said
Albertson. “Do you think I can?”
“Yes,” I assure her. “Your story is
absolutely amazing.”
And indeed there will
be time, To wonder,
“Do I dare?” and “Do
I dare?” Time to turn
back and descend the
stair…
Do I dare, Disturb
the universe? In a
minute there is time,
For decisions and
revisions which a
minute will reverse.

Student-Athletes Receive Academic Honors
Ancilla College student-athletes Tyler Jackson, Demi Schrader,
and Mark Reel highlighted a list of athletes who were recently
honored for their achievements in the classroom, the College announced on Friday.
Jackson and Schrader were named recipients of the NJCAA
Award for Superior Academic Excellence while Reel was a recipient of the NJCAA Award for Exemplary Academic Achievement.
Jackson is a baseball player from North Montgomery High School
in Crawfordsville, IN, and is a Business major.
Schrader is a volleyball and softball player from Niles High
School in Niles, MI, and is an Education major.
Reel is a baseball player from Western High School in Kokomo,
IN, and is a Business major.
The NJCAA Award for Superior Academic Excellence is awarded
to those student-athletes who have earned between a 3.80 and
3.99 GPA on a 4.0 scale, have completed at least three full-time
semesters, and have participated in at least one full varsity season
in athletics.
The NJCAA Award for Exemplary Academic Achievement is
awarded to those student-athletes who have earned between a
3.60 and 3.79 GPA on a 4.0 scale, have completed at least three
full-time semesters, and have participated in at least one full varsity season in athletics.
“Ancilla College is proud of our student-athletes and this special recognition by the NJCAA,” said Ancilla College AcademicAthletic Coordinator Lana Singleton. “Demi, Mark, and Tyler are
all outstanding students and great young people. They are great
representatives of Ancilla College and deserve this recognition.”
44th Graduating Class
Ancilla College graduated its 44th class in school history on Saturday, May 7, at the Ancilla Domini Chapel.
The College awarded 114 students their degrees, including nine
students graduating with a double major.
“Commencement ceremonies are one of the highlight events at
any college,” said Ancilla College President Dr. Ron May. “This
year’s commencement at Ancilla College was no exception. It
was my great honor to present diplomas to each of the graduates
in this year’s class.”
Ancilla College alum Mary Szymusiak (AC ’95), the President
and CEO of Wheatfield-based company Tefft Bridge and Iron,
was on hand to deliver the commencement address.
“Mary is a prime example of the impact an Ancilla education can
have,” said May. “She spoke eloquently of her time at Ancilla
and how that prepared her for her life after Ancilla.”
A reception organized by the Ancilla Alumni Association followed, as Ancilla faculty, staff, students, and their families gathered in Cana Hall for fellowship and refreshments.
“Commencement at Ancilla College is such an exciting time,”
said Dr. Joanna Blount, Dean of Academic and Student Services.
“It is a celebration and culmination of hard work by students and
faculty. Marching across the stage, changing the tassel from right
to left – these are signs of achievement and, for some, the fulfillment of a dream that students did not expect to accomplish.
“We see the ways in which our students grew and flourished
with the individual attention they received from faculty and staff
and know that we have shaped the lives of our students, that we
have started them on a journey that will last a lifetime. “
In addition to the NJCAA awards, eight student-athletes were recipients of the All-MCCAA (Michigan Community College Athletic Association) Academic Award, given to those students who
maintain at least a 3.2 cumulative GPA. They include: Jackson,
Reel, Schrader, Sabrina Hatfield, Allison Worden, Brooks Mathias, Trina Bauer, and Allison Chiles.
An Honors Convocation was also held on Friday, May 6, at the
Ancilla Domini Chapel, as students and faculty alike were honored for their achievements.
Ten student-athletes were recipients of the All-MCCAA AllConference Award for carrying a 3.0 cumulative GPA or higher
and include: Jackson, Reel, Hatfield, Worden, Mathias, Schrader,
Bauer, Chiles, Dustin Kreft, and Brandy Sechrist.
Another 36 were honored for their affiliation with Ancilla’s Beta
Beta Beta chapter of Phi Theta Kappa, the largest honor society in
American higher education.
Ancilla College also had two sports teams – Women’s Volleyball
and Women’s Softball – earn MCCAA All-Academic Team status
for posting a cumulative team GPA above a 3.0.
“These student-athletes have worked hard both in the classroom
and on their athletic teams,” said Singleton. “They have set fine
examples for others to follow. We wish them well on their next
steps in their college education. They will be missed.”
Of the 114 graduates, 18 received recognition for graduating
Summa Cum Laude, Magna Cum Laude, and Cum Laude.
Receiving special honors were Brooke Mathias (Scholar of Distinction), Tyler Jackson (Outstanding Male Scholar-Athlete),
Demi Schrader (Outstanding Female Scholar-Athlete), Dan
Clampitt (Educator of the Year), Rebecca Geib (Outstanding
Portfolio Award), and Amber Beaver and Mark Reel (All-Indiana
Academic Team).

Ancilla Celebrates the Career of Glenda Bockman
I
n Glenda Bockman’s 28 years of service to Ancilla College, the longtime
librarian was never one to seek attention or accolades.
Naturally, when she made the decision to retire, she had intentions of
leaving the same way - without anyone making a fuss. The College had
other plans, however. “I had asked to retire quietly, and I really meant
that,” said Bockman with a laugh. “It sure didn’t happen.”
Instead, Bockman was honored with a retirement party on June 27 that
was open to the public and featured a montage of pictures collected of her
throughout her tenure at Ancilla.
“The open house was wonderful,” she said. “It was a really, really nice
day. My immediate family was there. We just had a really nice time. The
Dean (Dr. Joanna Blount) and Tai (Duncan) did a great job, as always.”
Her retirement also garnered local media attention, something that really
took Bockman by surprise.
“I opened the newspaper and saw myself on the front page,” she said.
“That’s a first for me.”
Since retiring, Bockman has stayed quite busy. The 1963 graduate of
Plymouth High School celebrated her 46th wedding anniversary with her
husband, John, on July 3 and is expecting the birth of her 12th grandchild
- a baby girl - very soon.
“I’m enjoying retirement a lot, though my husband has been sick,” said
Bockman. “At least I could be there with him and not worry about what’s
going on at work. He had a slight stroke about two weeks ago, but he’s
doing very well. That was scary.”
Before John’s illness, the couple had a chance to travel together and camp
for the first time since 1967, the year Bockman graduated from Ball State
University with her bachelor’s degree.
The two travelled through several states, including Tennessee and Arkansas,
visiting family. The couple alternated between camping and staying with
relatives during that time.
“We haven’t [camped] since Expo ’67 in Canada,” she recalled. “Of course,
a couple times it got really hot. When it hit 100 [degrees], we decided a
motel sounded really, really nice.”
Since then, Bockman has been looking to accomplish smaller, lingering
chores with her newfound spare time.
“Since then, there’s been a lot of altering of school uniforms for grandkids
and a little cleaning,” said Bockman. “My goal was to start cleaning the
house. So far, I haven’t started it.”
One other thing Bockman has had time to do is reflect upon her time at
Ancilla College and appreciate what the school has meant to her.
“The way that the people care for the students and for each other really
stands out to me,” said Bockman. “It’s been absolutely the best place I could
have ever worked. The kindness in everyone is just evident.”

Ancilla Baseball Team Joins Relief Efforts for
Alabama Tornado Victims
The Ancilla College baseball team recently joined in aiding relief
efforts for victims of the tornadoes that swept through Alabama,
delivering numerous donated goods and lending assistance to
those in need.
Drop
boxes
were
placed
at the College,
The LifePlex,
WTCA Radio,
and Martin’s
Supermarket in
Plymouth and
were quickly
filled with numerous goods.
Martin’s donated three boxes of food and baby items to the efforts. Overmyer
Water and Culligan matched each purchase made, while members of the local communities from Culver to South Bend came
forth with donations of their own.
Ancilla College and Marshall County
Community Foundation Team Up
Representatives of Ancilla College and the Marshall County
Community Foundation were on hand to celebrate the opening of the College’s new math laboratory as part of the Assistive
Developmentally-Enhanced Program and Technology (ADEPT)
program.
Funded through a grant provided by the Marshall County Community Foundation, the lab will serve as a key component in the
implementation of the ADEPT program at the Donaldson-based
campus.
Grant monies specifically addressed renovation and the purchase
of new computers for the lab.
Under the terms of the agreement, Ancilla College will work with
the Marshall County Workforce Development and Plymouth
School Corporation to assist GED students ready to enter college
courses by offering on-site college-level placement testing at the
GED educational site.
When all was said and done, a 15-passenger Ancilla College bus
was completely packed and left room for just four passengers to
travel – Joe Yonto, Ancilla’s head baseball coach, assistant baseball coach Terry Coleman, Trace Myers, and Dennis Emmons.
Ancilla staff will host quarterly orientations to assist these students with college readiness information such as financial workshops, library research workshops, and writing workshops. Ancilla College will also offer free classes to GED students who have
graduated and are in need of remedial math or English writing
classes.
“When Joe Yonto suggested the trip and started gathering donations, I was onboard immediately,” said Emmons. “Ancilla is
a faith-based institution and the outpouring of donations from
the staff, faculty, students and sisters proves even more that they
truly are a ministry. I am proud of my alma mater for making a
difference.”
“This initiative is designed to help prepare the workforce in skills
identified by Indiana’s Chamber of Commerce (ICC) needed to
compete in the new economy: writing and math skills, critical
thinking, information literacy, teamwork, and use of computer
technology,” said Dr. Joanna Blount, Dean of Academic and Student Services at Ancilla College.
Nearing the site of the disaster, Yonto was stunned by the destruction he saw. “The majority of the town was wiped out,” said
Yonto. “Schools, churches, and homes were gone. Some just had
the roof top on the ground. You could see the path the tornadoes
had taken. Poles and trees were snapped in half. Houses that
were standing had tarps on them. There were just open areas of
the land that once had houses there.”
Ancilla College President Dr. Ron May expressed his gratitude to
the Marshall County Community Foundation.
Upon arrival at Our Lady of the Valley parish in Birmingham,
the four were warmly greeted by 15 people, including Msgr. Paul
Rohling, pastor of Our Lady of the Valley.
“This project represents the continued partnership between Ancilla College and the Marshall County Community Foundation,”
said Dr. May. “Working together, we continue to improve the
educational opportunities for citizens of Marshall County. We
are indeed grateful for the grant from the Foundation for making
this math lab possible.”
In addition to the donated items and money, Yonto was able to
present Msgr. Rohling with a letter from Ancilla College President Dr. Ron May to Rev. Bishop Robert J. Baker.
Afterwards, the group headed to Cullman, AL, to aid in relief
efforts. After checking on many of the local residents affected
by the storms, the group visited the Catholic Charities Service,
where they spent several hours stacking, marking, and organizing truck loads of boxes and supplies.
“I know that it was just people caring about people and people
helping out other people no matter what the situation,” said Yonto. “That is how I was raised and that is the mission of Ancilla
College.”

Feature
Yana Weidemann’s American Education
Y
ana Weidemann won’t let you, the
stranger, into her life right away.
Her disposition is almost painfully
shy. The impression she leaves on those
who meet her is almost always the same:
incredibly quiet.
Productive wouldn’t be hard to get out of
Yana. There were plenty of opportunities
for her to work in business settings. The
Ancilla College library, bookstore, and
Office of Admissions were all willing to take
her on. So was Earthworks.
If you ask others to tell you what makes
Yana who she is, you probably won’t get an
answer. They haven’t been let in that close.
If you ask Yana the same question, a wave
of embarrassment and awkwardness visibly
washes over her. Her expression is partly a
smile, but mostly a grimace. She exclaims,
“Oh, why do you ask me such things?” She
doesn’t want to open that door yet.
Comfortable could be a challenge, however.
Fortunately, Diltz had an idea. That idea’s
name was Kelsey Cordell.
Kelsey Cordell is a very bubbly teenage girl
who – conveniently for Diltz – is also 17
Yana, a 17 year old from Nomborn,
Germany, is completing an eight-week
stay here in the United States as part of her
practicum at Peter-Paul-Cahensly-Schule in
Limburg, Germany.
Within a short time, Yana found herself on
a plane, heading to Donaldson, Indiana. On
June 6, she found herself on campus, in an
unfamiliar place full of unfamiliar people.
It didn’t take long for Sr. Judith Diltz, PHJC,
to sense her shyness. Diltz was responsible
for helping keep watch over Yana during
her stay and making sure her trip was
comfortable, yet productive.
12
Ancilla College Accent • Fall 2011
The two quickly became very close. In
between Yana’s work, the girls would find
time to visit Cedar Point Amusement Park,
go shopping in Chicago, and even go tubing
on Lake Maxinkuckee in Culver.
Maybe it’s a cultural thing. According to
Yana, people in the United States are more
open than people in Germany.
She also found that life in the United States is
more expensive. Everything is more spread
out than she’s used to. Most of all, she didn’t
have her family there to protect her.
Many of her classmates stayed in Germany for
the practicum. A couple went to Spain. Yana
was the only one to head to the United States.
“They told me I could go to America or
Mexico,” said Yana. “I wanted to go to the
USA. We called Sr. Jolise May, I met with her
once or twice, and she said it would be fine.”
“She has a fun personality,” said Kelsey. “She likes to go do things. She calls me a
party pooper. I’m a big wimp when it comes
to things. I have a waterslide at my house
and I don’t like to go down it. Yana will be
like ‘Come on, let’s go.’”
For the first time since she arrived in
America, Yana began opening up.
An aspiring Secretary with Special
Knowledge of Language, Yana was looking
for an opportunity not only to brush up on
her business skills, but her language skills
as well.
Her mother wasn’t particularly happy
about it, but was willing to allow it as long
as the practicum was arranged through the
Poor Handmaids of Jesus Christ. A friend
of the family works for the motherhouse in
Germany and was able to make the proper
connections through the Poor Handmaids
there. Within a couple of months, everything
was arranged.
Though Yana is shy, she certainly is not
prone to being rude. Kelsey learned quickly
that if you talk to Yana, you will get a
response.
“I’ve become more independent, a little
more mature,” said Yana of her time in the
United States. “In Germany, I rely on my
mom for some things. I couldn’t cook before
I came here.”
years old. The daughter of PHJC employee
Kelly Cordell , Kelsey is an “Early Bird”
student at Ancilla College, taking college
credits at the Donaldson-based campus
in addition to her high school studies at
Oregon-Davis High School in Hamlet.
The idea of spending time with a student
from Germany was posed to Kelsey, and she
readily accepted. It sounded like a fun idea.
“I was excited because I’ve had foreign
exchange students come to my high school
a lot and I’ve been friends with them,” said
Kelsey. “I was looking forward to it and I
thought it was neat that she was my age.
When we met the first time, she was real
shy, real nervous. It was hard for me to get
her to talk.”
That’s not to say she doesn’t miss home.
The first thing she plans on doing when
she arrives back in Germany is hugging
her family.
But until then, Kelsey and Yana plan on
spending as much time together as possible.
The two are already plotting ways they can
visit each other again – both in the United
States and in Germany.
Make no mistake, despite her shyness,
Yana will miss many of the people she’s
spent time with at Ancilla College and
Earthworks. But when it comes down to it,
one thing will stand out in her mind.
“Being friends with Kelsey will be my best
memory.”
