Â鶹ӰÊÓ

The Library is saddened by the passing of Dr. Phail Wynn, Jr. He was a champion of students and a supporter of the library both during his tenure as President of the College and after.

For more than ten years (established in 2007), Dr. Wynn donated funds to establish a special collection based around eight topics he selected consisting of materials that, as per Dr. Wynn's request, "pertain (…) to socially responsible topics…"

The topics he selected were the following:

• Cultural Awareness
• Global Citizenship
• Teaching Tolerance
• Appreciating Diversity
• Protecting the Environment
• Conservation
• Sustainability
• Promoting Peace

With his help, we've purchased hundreds of books for our students to learn about these important ideas over the years. They are located on shelves next to the computer area upstairs.

I did not have the honor of working at Â鶹ӰÊÓ while Dr. Wynn was here so I never met him. However, I can assure you that his presence has been and will continue to be a guiding force as we keep his principles and the example he set in mind.
