How awesome is this! Proud to know her!

Suzy Mink '74 lit the cauldron during the opening ceremony of the 46th Empire State Winter Games in Lake Placid, New York last Thursday, Feb. 5.

Mink, Hollins' senior philanthropic supervisor, was among the 52 individuals who carried the Olympic torch to Lake Placid in 1980. During last week's ceremony, she wore the same yellow uniform she wore 46 years ago.
