SUMMER 2016
Admissions counselors Scott Joyner and Emily Ryman attended the Town School for Boys School Fair in San Francisco where they reconnected with two alumni now working in admissions. Emily Thews Bainbridge ’06 is with Case Western Reserve University in Ohio, where she is also working on her MBA. H. O’Neal Turner III ’00 represented Fountain Valley School in Colorado Springs, Colo., where he is an Associate Director of Admissions and Financial Aid and varsity boys’ lacrosse coach.
Corrections & Clarifications The photo on page 44 of the Spring 2016 issue was taken by Camilo “Mo” Morales. Morales is the Company C counselor and a tremendous contributor to the Alumni magazine and Culver’s photo archives. Ben Colman ’65 of Dexter, Mich., a longtime professional photographer, educator, and student of the medium, observed that the tagline on the Ansel Adams’ photograph (page 32) should have read El Capitan. Adams photographed the prominent feature in Yosemite National Park many times. To clarify, retiree Nancy Kersey worked at The Culver Inn during high school (page 24, Spring 2016). The day after she graduated from high school, she went to work for Col. Henderson in the Admissions Office. She is now living with a daughter.
