Trustees, William Dodge Rueckert announced the establishment of a A four-year, $3 million planned gifts campaign for International House. Rueckert, Co-Chair of the Board’s Development Committee, cited recent major bequests from alumnae Jean Sullivan Dobrzensky (45) and Ruth Tensen DeWitte (39) for the campaign’s early success. The $1 million Dobrzensky Outreach Scholarship Fund and the $460,000 DeWitte European Scholarship Fund resulted from a designated bequest by each alumna.

bequests and trusts have played an important role in building ie House’s endowment. “The goal in developing a planned giving program is not to secure a small number of very large gifts alone,” said Rueckert. “It’s especially satisfying to see that alumni are playing such a significant role in this campaign, and I’m sure Harry Edmonds would be very proud. “We want to build a growing base of gifts in the years ahead,” said Rueckert. “This will allow the House to continue providing the unique living experience it has offered for the last 70 years.” Si

At 12, Hendry passed the highest exam given by the Royal Schools of Music in London, and has subsequently received numerous awards of international distinction. He left to study abroad because there was no music school at the college level in Jakarta. “Western classical music is not very much appreciated in Indonesia,” he says. “If you gave a concert there, almost no one would show up.” The second-year I.

He credits the

moved in it began to feel more like a home, and after a while you meet almost everyone. Now I know people from Singapore, Thailand, Europe — basically everywhere,” Hendry says. “Indonesia has many tourists, but I hadn’t met any of them. I thought of the people I saw as being people that I couldn’t talk to. But being here at the House, I have seen that people really are the same.” As a Resident Assistant this year, Hendry participates in the International Leadership Program.

While the concept of leadership training is a popular one today, both in academia and the work-place, the approach of I.

Program. “In order for women to be better equipped to contribute and compete at all levels, they need access to the skills and techniques which enhance their leadership abilities.” The high costs of specialized leadership training place it beyond the reach of most women from developing nations. There are few opportunities to acquire leadership training that is global in perspective and that examines issues and leadership styles with a cross-cultural focus.

Held at different establishments in the city, Happy Hours hope to draw alumni to a few hours of social networking. The first Happy Hour was held at the American Festival Cafe at Rockefeller Center on November 9th. The second is scheduled at the Pipeline in the World Financial Center at 6.30 pm on February 8th. * Attempting to reach over a thousand alumni in the New York Area who had never given, as well as lapsed alumni donors across the United States, a handful of volunteer residents led by Rhonda Lichtman and alumnus Bruce Silverberg (°90-’91) raised $5,685 over eight weeks of calling during last spring's 70th Anniversary Alumni Phonathon.

Alumni Recruitment Appreciated The Admissions Office would like to thank alumni everywhere for the work they do. What work?
Bonnie and Don
Cuneo
with Carousel star and alumna
Every time alumni mention their experience at International House to someone,
when they call up old I. House friends to reminisce, or when they recommend I. House to a prospective resident, they are promoting and encouraging students to apply. Statistics show that “word of mouth” is our greatest recruitment tool. Alumni recruitment efforts — one of the three pillars of alumni involvement — are critical to maintaining high occupancy levels at the House, and allowing the Admissions Committee to be more selective. Alumni with questions, or who would like to play a more active role in recruiting, are asked to contact Anna A. Diaz, Director of Admissions, at (212) 316-8585, Fax (212) 316-1827.
Shirley Verrett at benefit reception
he June 7th theater benefit, “An Evening at ‘Carousel’” raised $90,000 for I. House scholarships. World-renowned opera star Shirley Verrett starred as Nettie Fowler in the Tony Award winning revival of Rodger & Hammerstein’s “Carousel” at the Vivian _&. Beaumont Theater. The performance was preceded by dinner at the Radisson Empire Hotel near Lincoln Center. The successful benefit was chaired by I. House Life Trustee Russell S. Reynolds,Jr. and his wife Debbie. Alumni Mr. and Mrs. Paul Soros (Daisy Soros is a longtime Trustee) honored Shirley Verrett and the Benefit Committee with a cocktail reception at their New York home in late spring. In 1993-94, $137,000 in scholarships was awarded to 166 residents. The average award was slightly under $1,000. Workaide money credited to residents during the same year exceeded $200,000.
International Flags Flying Over I. House
The five flag poles over the Sakura Park entrance to I. House fly the United Nations standard and brightly colored flags from nations around the world. “The new flags are a colorful expression of our diversity, and make a positive statement of our identity in the surrounding community,” says President Don Cuneo, who initiated the project. I. House was able to purchase new, all-weather flags for the 90 or so countries represented by current 1994-95 residents. The balance of the world’s flags will be purchased over the next twelve months as -budgeting allows. The United Nations flag will remain constant, but country flags will be rotated every two weeks. New flag poles will eventually be added to the I. House North Terrace, so that country flags will enliven the I. House’s Claremont Avenue facade as well.

A permanent memorabilia display to be located in the Foyer of Davis Hall is included in the plan. In September, Cuneo announced that the New York architectural firm of Buttrick White & Burtis has been retained to oversee all the renovation and re-design of spaces. He told the Board’s House Committee that the firm “will insure high quality and consistency as we begin the exciting task of transforming spaces for resident use.” The first example of their work will be the new Bill Frohlich Fitness Center, which is nearing completion of the planning phase. Other projects include conversion of the Map Lounge (formerly the Waffle Wing) for resident use, expansion of the Pub to include a party room, and resident hallways and floor lounges. Architects will renovate a sample resident floor and lounge this year as a prototype for a phased, hallway and floor lounge renovation.

Upgrades Enhance Resident Life A number of renovation projects and improvements have been completed at I. House this fall to improve the quality of resident life. New windows recently installed in I. House North
will conserve energy, stop drafts, reduce noise, and allow the installation of air-conditioners in the summer. The Resident Computer Room in I. House North has been upgraded with three new IBM 486 computers and a new printer, and the Resident Kitchen in I. House South was completely renovated with new plumbing, wiring, lighting, and appliances. Lighting in the Dining Room will be enhanced by the addition of five new chandeliers, as the Programs & Resident Life Office seeks to expand the programmatic use of the Dining Room. The Game Room has been completely paneled and new lighting has been added. In order to increase safety outside the building, bright sodium lights have been added to the Riverside and Sakura Park facades of I. House South. (Lr) Trustee Dr, William G.

The occasion was a welcome reception for participants in the Women’s International Leadership (WIL) Program, which Spiegel created and launched in its first year. The reception was hosted by WIL Advisory Council Chair Dr. Patricia Taylor and International Trustee Ambassador Kenneth Taylor at their midtown home.
