coaches who didn’t win enough. Football
coaches Carl Torbush and John Bunting ’ 72
were dismissed, and Matt Doherty ’ 84 was
forced to resign as basketball coach.
One word:
You can’t talk intelligently about any of
this first-class-university stuff without circling back to the subject of money. There’s
a national debate under way about whether
college presidents have to be former professors or should be just flat-out CEOs.
Moeser was never bashful about raising
money being his most important role. In
the succinct words of one of his top
deputies, “You raise capital, and you invest
capital.” When your school is good at it,
you can tell the hot-shot chemistry professor he can literally work with the architects
to design his own lab; you can send students abroad to study when their parents
can’t afford it; you can get the football
coaches and the French horn players who
are wanted by the other schools; you can
return form and function to landmarks
such as the Campus Y.

Reason #37 to be glad
you moved to The Cedars.
The look on our children’s faces
after they visit us: relief! They know we
are well cared for, that we won’t be
moving in on them, and that we are
surrounded by old and new friends,
beautiful surroundings, competent staff
and a health center for later. And I’ll
bet they realize that all this real estate
is going to keep appreciating, and that
they’ll enjoy the benefits someday.
