A letter from the President

Board Chair Andrew MacRitchie

Dear alumni and friends of Marylhurst,

Secretary-Treasurer Kristin Stathis William Barr Ruth A. Beyer Scott Bolton ‘02 Eileen Brown, SNJM ‘55 Stephen Brown Mary Burke, SNJM ‘65 Larry N. Choruby Rebecca DeCesaro Roswitha Frawley, SNJM ‘68 Judie Hammerstad Jane M.

Shoen Patricia Smith Tim Stempel Chip Terhune Lynda Thompson, SNJM ‘65 Edward J. Vranizan Stephen P. Zimmer

I have already had the pleasure of meeting many of you and continue to look forward to meeting more of you. To those able to attend Reunion Weekend 2014 in October, thank you for making my first Reunion Weekend a special one. I appreciated our conversation at the Celebration Lunch and the chance to hear your thoughts and ideas. Your voices are critical as we move forward. There are many challenges ahead of us, and the landscape of higher education is in a time of great change. However, I am confident that together we can meet these challenges while still providing the high quality education Marylhurst is known for. I have heard the charges put forth to me during my inauguration — to maintain the heritage, reputation and good financial standing of this university, as well as to protect our students’ dreams. I fully accept these charges and believe that while we must preserve our heritage, we must also continue to look for ways to build upon our foundation of providing education to the underserved, and for ways to use our gorgeous campus to the fullest. I know I cannot accomplish these things alone — I will need support from all members of the Marylhurst family to help make this possible. Again, your time, talents and treasures are imperative to us in these endeavors. Historically Marylhurst has been a place of incredible innovation and creativity, and holds a special place in the hearts of many. I look forward to seeing what this new chapter holds with you and have appreciated such a warm welcome! I am truly honored. I look forward to meeting you soon. Blessings,

Melody Rose, Ph.D. President

Writing Vulnerable Jay Ponteri on the Oregon Book Awards, writing, and inspiration from his students By Kelly Ann Chee

J

ay Ponteri, English faculty member, was selected as the winner of the Oregon Book Awards’ Sarah Winnemucca Award for Creative Nonfiction this past spring. This awards program, presented annually through Literary Arts, seeks to recognize Oregon’s outstanding writers and publishers. Wedlocked, Ponteri’s award-winning memoir, is a deeply personal piece. As described on the Hawthorne Books publisher’s page, “as a married writer Ponteri finds himself infatuated with a woman other than his wife and writes a manuscript to explore his feelings. Discovery of this manuscript understandably strains his marriage. Wedlocked offers readers an intimate, idiosyncratic view of a human institution that can so often fail, leaving its inhabitants lonely and adrift. Ponteri lays bare his inner life and in doing so provides all of us in monogamous relationships rich material to consider.” Fellow Marylhurst instructor, author Natalie Serber said in her review, “Jay Ponteri is a brave seeker with a capacious and conflicted heart. Equal parts confession, fantasy, meditation and rant, his deeply private memoir is fearless in its exploration of dark and uncomfortable corners in his marriage. These beautifully crafted pages shine a light on loneliness, marriage, fatherhood and how we sustain ourselves in our lives of perfect ordinariness.” Ponteri is incredibly grateful for this recognition. He remarked that, “Any time that you have somebody reading and responding to your work you feel this sense of visibility that you spend a lot of time not having...it lets me know that other people may be receiving what it is I’m trying to do. That was really important.” As a longtime participant and supporter of Portland’s literary scene Ponteri has been involved since 1999 - recognition from this community has meant a lot to him. Ponteri has also appreciated being able to share this recognition with the Marylhurst community, and has also brought his “Marylhurst self” to the readings and workshops he has been giving in Oregon for Literary Arts.

12 | marylhurst.edu

Ponteri directs the undergraduate creative writing program at Marylhurst University As the subject matter was very private, writing and editing Wedlocked was a unique process, and at seven years to complete, took longer than most projects for Ponteri. He describes it as “more of a book of essays, with a central piece called the manuscript tying the whole thing together.” As part of his general writing process, Ponteri writes four to five pieces, sets them aside, then returns to them later to revise them several times and eventually pieces of the whole start to get finished. While Wedlocked took a longer time to write, process and edit, in general he


spends six to seven months generating new material and six months revising before pieces are completed. At the end of the day Ponteri remains humble about this accomplishment. “A lot of writers can get really caught up in feelings of acclaim and that is just so few and far between; often you are getting really bad reviews (and I get plenty of those),” he confides, “what fuels you needs to be the thing itself.” Ponteri also attributes his success to the support of his colleagues and especially his students. In his acceptance speech he thanked his students by saying, “O my dear dear Marylhurst students you teach me humility and generosity, you teach me courage, you teach me how to make beautiful things.” Ponteri finds that “[his] writing and [his] teaching are just so entangled” and that teaching is an important

When it comes to supporting new writers, Ponteri urges readers to buy books, especially hard copies rather than e-books. For authors the world of e-books is a bit like “the Wild West,” as Ponteri describes it, and most of the profits are scooped up by the distributors such as Amazon or Barnes and Noble. Many major cities also have thriving reading series; Marylhurst University offers its own, the Marylhurst Reading Series. This annual series features the poetry, novels, short stories, essays and memoirs of emerging and acclaimed authors from the region and across the nation. All readings are open and free to the public. Ponteri also sees the importance in cultivating younger writers and runs show:tell, a nine-day seminar which offers high school students (ages 14-18) the opportunity to receive college-level instruction in creative writing and contemporary arts. This program combines writing and interdisciplinary art workshops, production of text-based projects and public readings, and helps students develop skills as creative writers, inventive artists, critical thinkers and spirited collaborators.

While he hopes to write more books in his lifetime, and while the accomplishment of this award is something he’ll always get to keep, “what really makes me want to write more” states Ponteri, is that “it’s a habitual part of my life.

“I make sure to show my students how I’m being vulnerable so they can push that into their work. So often we have these layers we have to guard ourselves with, in our days and our families, and when we go to do our art, we need to pull all of that away.” component of his writing practice. At the heart of this is the example Ponteri sets for his students and the culture of trust and vulnerability he is able to create. Ponteri’s respect and support for his students’ endeavors is clear. When students are working on writing exercises, Ponteri is right there alongside them, writing from the approach of “somebody who’s just a novice.” While he is able to generate material he later uses during these exercises, what is more important to him as an instructor is that he and his students will both experience the challenge of writing simultaneously. “Writing doesn’t get easier with more experience,” Ponteri explains, “every new thing you write is a new experience and teaching you how to write it.” His students’ own willingness to be vulnerable and put their work out there is a constant reminder to him to approach his own writing practice from the same standpoint.

The Next Chapter M

arylhurst University formally installed Dr. Melody Rose as its 15th president on Sunday, October 26, 2014. Students, alumni, faculty, staff, friends and delegates representing institutions of higher education in Oregon came together to mark this memorable occasion for Marylhurst. With bagpipers leading the way, the platform party, faculty and delegates, enrobed in regalia, processed to St. Anne’s Chapel. All were welcomed by the Marylhurst Chorale and Marylhurst Choral Union’s rendition of “Hail Poetry!” The choirs added elegance throughout the ceremony with several more pieces. The invocation from Bishop Kenneth Steiner, D.D., marked the beginning of the ceremony, and Governor Barbara Roberts offered a greeting to the audience. Several representatives put forth their charges and well-wishes to Dr. Rose: – The Sisters of the Holy Names, represented by Sr. Roswitha Frawley, SNJM ’68 – External university partners, represented by Dr. Roy Saigo, president of Southern Oregon University – Marylhurst faculty, represented by Dr. David Denny, chair of the Department of Culture & Media and president of the Faculty Senate and Assembly

Following a moving rendition of the Marylhurst alma mater by the Marylhurst choirs, and the inaugural blessing by Sr. Frawley, the bagpipers returned to lead the recessional to the reception in Clark Commons following the ceremony. Guests mingled at the reception, and raised their glasses for the three toasts given by Governor Barbara Roberts, Marylhurst University Trustee Stephen Zimmer, and Dr. Rose’s four children.

Q&A with President Rose Could you tell us a little bit about your family? Sure. I have four children. My oldest daughter is a senior at Scripps College and my son is a freshman at Oregon State University studying biochemistry. My second to youngest daughter is a freshman at St. Mary’s Academy, where she plays on the varsity soccer team, and my youngest daughter is a 7th grader at Robert Gray Middle School.

What are your goals as Marylhurst University’s new president? First, my goal has been to learn about the institution and get to know the folks here. I am working on building a foundation for the future that includes clear focus on academic excellence and looking for additional programming that will align with our mission and our student population. A very specific goal I have is that I want to make sure that we’re maximizing our use of this beautiful property for our mission and for our partners in the region. We are going to be looking at ways of partnering and utilizing the campus and my hope is to have more students on campus; possibly through residence halls.

Why Marylhurst and why now?

Marylhurst University was thrilled to install President Melody Rose, Ph.D. on October 26, 2014. She has enjoyed getting to know the Marylhurst family and graciously set aside time for an interview so that everyone at Marylhurst could learn a little more about her and her vision for the university.

16 | marylhurst.edu

Marylhurst has always been on my radar because I’ve been in higher education in Oregon for 20 years. I have always admired the innovation that has gone on here. The mission speaks to me since I’ve always been guided by a principle of bringing folks into higher education that might not otherwise have an opportunity. Why now? I was ready to come back to a campus and be connected to faculty and students again.

What do you most like to do in your free time? My partner and I love to cook and the kids really appreciate that. When we have free time together we do pretty involved cooking projects, which is fun. And of course I do a lot of things with my two children who are still at home. I think perhaps my favorite thing to cook is chicken and dumplings - it’s a French recipe that my children love. I also love to make crepes. Sunday morning crepes with nutella and berries is a popular thing in my house.


What’s your religious background? I was raised in a dual religion household. My father and his family are Catholic and my mom and her family are Protestant, so I had a mix of things growing up. Within the last few years I had a calling back to the Catholic church to finish my Catholic education through adult confirmation. I was confirmed on Easter of this year. That felt like coming home and closing a circle that had been open for a long time.

Let’s embrace our strength. Embrace our heritage and our brilliant future. We know how to wear it with grace and humility, and in service to those who deserve our very best effort. Let’s embrace success. Let us succeed. Excerpt from Dr. Rose’s Inaugural Address

What are your thoughts on Marylhurst’s plans for growth? It’s Marylhurst tradition to be a step ahead in innovative programming. We will be looking at the industry needs in the region, the areas where Marylhurst has existing expertise, if projects/potential partners match with our mission, and if so, will be pursuing some new opportunities as our time allows. Regarding populations of students who are underserved — this is a keen interest of mine and I think for many people on campus. As you know from Marylhurst’s history, we have focused on different underrepresented groups at different points in time and it’s time to have that conversation again, which I think is really exciting. I think we will be very keenly focused on ethnic minorities in the region that are not represented in higher education in numbers that represent them in the population. One of the things that I’ve certainly learned is that to be attractive to non-traditional student populations, you have to rethink how you do things and that affects a desire to have a diverse workforce and a diverse faculty.

When we appeal to students they see people with similar backgrounds and can be inspired by those models. We will have a vibrant conversation on campus around what it means to be preparing ourselves for those students. This conversation will likely come up first when we talk about bringing Pacific International Academy fully into the Marylhurst family through the merger that we are working toward. To have our international students fully included on campus is a tremendous opportunity. It’s a really exciting opportunity and that conversation is moving forward rapidly.

What are the biggest challenges that you see in your position? The biggest challenge almost any university faces right now is budget. We’re not unlike other small private institutions of our kind across the country and we have to be innovative in how we structure ourselves and at the same time stay true to our values. We’re taking a hard look at that, and want to make sure we hold the student experience front and center as we make decisions. We have challenges but we’re on solid footing and our future is bright.

As you meet community and business leaders in the upcoming months, what will your message be? I am trying to energize the region around our potential to be a great partner. What I’m finding is that a lot of folks have referred to Marylhurst as a ‘hidden gem.’ I think we will have taken the university to a new level when we just hear that ‘Marylhurst is a gem’ and it’s no longer hidden. I think that will certainly happen, and given the kind of excellence we already have on campus, our path is clear.

What’s your message to Marylhurst University’s students? I am so impressed by our students. Most Marylhurst students are juggling family, sometimes multiple jobs, or coming back to school after a hiatus; there’s just tremendous courage in the student body and I respect it and admire it very much. I want to do whatever I can to clear barriers out of their way.  MU
