"Goodbye, Farewell, and Amen"
As many of you know, I (Dr. Bari Oyler Stith, Director, Historic Preservation programs, Ursuline College) retired this summer and with my retirement, Ursuline College has chosen to discontinue our Historic Preservation programs.
It has been a privilege and pleasure to work with so many talented and dedicated individuals (students and adjunct faculty alike) over the past 16 years. As Gus McCrae says in Lonesome Dove, "It's been quite a party, ain't it?"
I am heartened by the legacy that you represent as well as the passion, creativity, and commitment you bring to our historic preservation profession. I am so proud to have been a part of your educational and professional lives and wish you the very best in your futures!
