John C. Whitehead

Elected Chairman

What does one do as an encore, fol-

dramatic improvement

lowing the completion of four years as

lations between the United States and the Soviet Union occurred. “It is a major event, the biggest thing that has happened in any of our lifetimes,” Whitehead says. “It permits us all to get on with some of the other problems that have been eclipsed by that confrontation: the environment, narcotics, terrorism, which must be faced and solved on a worldwide basis.” When asked of Whitehead's] election and acceptance, President - Evans-remarked, “I~ consider John Whitehead a late 20th century renaissance man. He is interested in the arts, in travel, and most important, in interpersonal relationships.” Evans finds Whitehead to be upbeat and optimistic about the future and that he possesses a “conservationist proclivity.” In considering the chairmanship, Whitehead conducted extensive research. “I talked with many people about International House, from President Ford to David Rockefeller to Henry Kissinger, but the most impressive was the group of residents with

Deputy Secretary of State, helping mold extraordinary events worldwide, most notable the dramatic improvement in East/West relations? John C. Whitehead faced exactly that dilemma this spring. With literally hundreds of requests for his time, Whitehead was forced to make some tough choices. Among the choices he made, one was to accept the chairmanship of International House. “The mission of the organiza‘tion appealed to me,” he says. “The

contacts, the idea of lifelong friendships established between people of different countries. In my high-level State Department work, I came to appreciate the importance of grassroots contacts that a place like International House fosters. I want to make a modest contribution to keeping that kind of effort alive, vital and strong.” Born in Evanston, Illinois in 1922, Whitehead grew up in New Jersey. He received his B.A. in economics in 1943. During World War II he served in the U.S. Navy. After receiving a M.B.A. from Harvard, he joined the investment banking firm of Goldman, Sachs & Co. as a junior statistician. He become a senior partner

and co-chairman in 1976. Whitehead stepped down in 1984 to devote his time to non-profit work. He served as president of the International Rescue Committee, traveling widely for the cause of political refugees. In 1984, Secretary of State George Schultz chose Whitehead to be Deputy Secretary of State. At the State Department, Whitehead was a

hands-on manager in all aspects of foreign affairs, and took a special interest in developing countries and human rights

issues.

“Each

was froma different country, each told what I. House meant to them. It was very moving. They were enthusiastic

fans of the concept.” Among Whitehead’s plans for the House is a series of monthly leadership seminars. He has invited an impressive group of international business leaders to address residents and alumni. The series will be launched

by David Rockefeller on November 28th when he will deliver the first John

J. McCloy lecture at a dinner held at the House t@dedicate the auditorium as.Davis Hall. These events [see box below] will be open to alumni and their guests. -- Russell Baker

Board Approves Expansion - Buys Building After 65 years as home to just over 500 students, interns and trainees, International House has expanded its capacity to 750 by purchasing the apartment house next door. The former Van Dusen Hall of the Union Theological © Seminary became known as I. House North with new residents moving in at summer's end. “When I. House opened in 1924 there were only 1,000 foreign students in New York City. Today there are over 14,000,” remarked President Evans. “I. House hadn't grown at all. If we really believe in our mission -that we are reaching people -- then this isa modest step at reaching more.” In recent years many excellent applicants have been turned down

due to a lack of available places. A large number of American students are denied admission, in fact four out of five each year. Evans hopes the expansion will allow more to live in the House and benefit from the interaction with people from other countries . “We're now able to accept so many more people who are excellent resources,” said Susan Storms, Admissions Coordinator. The response to I. House North has been strong. Storms said there is already a waiting list for studios. The building also offers onebedroom units, and suites. Storms said it is important to offer apartments to couples and those who want apartment-style living with kitchens to prepare their own food. “A

number of residents would check in on September Ist and out on September 10th, because they had found an apartment.” I. House North is connected to the original building, now referred to as I. House South, by a corridor running to the Claremont Entrance where mailboxes for both buildings are located, Another link, planned for construction in the next few years, is toextend from the Cafeteria level. I. House North has become an attractive alternative to continuing resi-

dents.

Among those who made the

move northward is Cathy Steeves, a third-year resident who is in Columbia University’s Ph.D. program in art history. She is sharing a studio apartment with her sister, Kari. “I always envisioned I. House North as a transition,” Steeves said. “It's great for people who don't need the I.House support structure, but who like to participate.” For her, the major advantages of I. House North are the kitchens and the additional privacy. Nevertheless, don’t expect her to stay away from the cafeteria or pub, which

have been favorite spots for socializing during her first two years at the House. I. House North also adds four hotel-type guest accommodations, bringing to 14 the number of guest suites and guest rooms for visiting alumni, scholars, and guests of resi‘dents. -- Russell Baker

400 alumni have responded with gifts and pledges surpassing $80,000. In addition, a $100,000 grant for the restoration project was received from the Starr Foundation, whose President is alumnus T:C. Hsu [1944-45]. Many former residents from around the world have answered swiftly and generously. The latest responses have lifted the total of alumni giving to the Capital Campaign to over $1 million. In offering their support, numerous alumni have chosen to remember their days at I. House through a naming gift of $250 or more that restores a chair in the auditorium balcony.

“Staying and participating in all the programs of International House has been one of the most enriching experiences of my life,” noted M.S. Gadkary [1960-62] from India, whose gift honors one of the House's first

residents, his father, S.A. Gadkary [192427]. He hopes his daughter might become a third generation alumna. Along with their gifts and pledges,

dor Davis], a most distinguished alum-

nus, to present the challenge for the auditorium restoration...for directing our thoughts so positively to this momentous

task,”’ wrote Mr. & Mrs.

Roderic Lowman [1944-46] who had met and married at International House. As the focal point of activity at the House, the auditorium evokes many memories. “How can I forget those Sunday Suppers with excellent speakers and artists; those Saturday night dances with a seven-piece orchestra...?”

wrote John M. Kokkins [1930-37]. Alumni letters have recalled not only

events held in the auditorium,

but also the experience of living at International House and how it changed lives. “It was there I learned the great lesson of equality of mankind. It was there I learned that all are equal,” wrote

U.S.

alumnus

Herbert

Kaiser

[1943-49]. Later he became a principal in

a Chattanooga, TN, public school during the turbulent days of integration. His letter continues, “I was able to hold our school and community solid, and protected all, black and white. | learned this by working with all races at International House. Yes, preserve the ball room, but preserve the entire

building which was built with wonderful care and good taste.” These as well as other letters and gifts come not only from previous alumni donors, but from many new ones as well. Nearly one-quarter of the gifts and pledges have come from first-time donors. Alumni gifts and pledges have already reached a level that will refurbish more than half of the chairs in the

. e2

balcony, as well as provide funds for

key aspects of the sound, lighting and stage elements of the renovation. With construction nearing its completion and additional gifts still needed to meet the Davis challenge,
