Person An individual, biographical data, birth and death, etc. Biographical Text Professor Emeritus of Foreign Languages and Dr. Solis earned his B.A. degree in 1957, his M.A. degree in 1959, and his Ph.D. degree in 1962, all from the University of Barcelona. After receiving his Ph.D., Dr. Solis taught at the University of Barcelona; Holborn School of Law, Commerce and Languages, London, England (1963-1964); Northern London Polytechnic, London, England (1964- 1965); the University of Jerusalem, Department of Romance Languages (1966-1969); and at the University of Maryland (1969-1970). Dr. Solis joined the faculty at Appalachian State University on September 1, 1969. He states that his interview on a snowy February day, with a gentleman of vision and friendliness, Dr. William Strickland, dean of Arts and Sciences, along with the resemblance of the Blue Ridge Mountains to the northern mountains of Spain on the Atlantic Coast, helped him choose Appalachian State University rather than take another university's offer. Dr. Solis was chair of the Department of Foreign Languages and Literature from 1981 to 1987; the director of the Appalachian Loft in New York in 1987; and director of the Summer Study Program in Madrid, Spain, from 1976 to 1978 and again in 1989 to 2001. In 1994, he also did a series of lectures on theory at the University of Castilla la Mancha, Ciudad Real, Spain. Granted tenure in 1972, Dr. Solis recalls descending the stairs of Sanford Hall, rubbing his hand against the brick wall, and saying, "I belong in here now, I am part of this." Similarly, three decades later, as he closed his office for the last time, he found himself whispering, "All this struggling for truth goes to the spirit of this place." Dr. Solis was thinking, too, of friends and colleagues, of the mass of individuals who built Sanford Hall with their hands and minds, whom he never met, but wished he had, as he had met Cecil, the evening janitor of the fifth floor in Sanford-the late visitor of classrooms and offices, the thin figure who forced the remains of the day into the hallway with his broom, who rarely spoke to anybody except his main client at night. "It has been a long day, hasn't it, professor?" Cecil would say, and Dr. Solis would reply, "Oh yes, Cecil, it has been long indeed-thanks for this semblance of happiness of yours. You don't even feel it inside, I am sure; it is a gift for others." Respect for students, for their future, was for Professor Solis a privilege Literatures rather than a simple duty, and, for the joy of seeing students grow in the freedom of their minds, he persevered walking up and down Sanford Hall's flights of stairs for over thirty years. During his career, Dr. Solis was the recipient of several awards. Premio Exraordinario de Doctorado, University of Barcelona, 1962. • Juan March Foundation, 1962 (a prestigious grant in Spain for one year of research in England). Grant from the Ministry of Education of Israel, 1965. Purpose: Research on Modern Hebrew Poetry. National Prize "Fray Luis de Leon," 1971; awarded by the Ministry of Education, Madrid.

Dr. Solis is married to Loles Pedrero Solis, an Appalachian State University reference business librarian now retired. She was also the first director of the new Appalachian State University Loft in New York. Dr. Solis compliments his wife in these words: "An urgency of fairness inherited by Loles from her father (a chief justice in Spain) blends in with the temper of an artist, who by will and design restricts herself to enlightenments of beauty in the spaces of home and work." The Solises have two sons and four grandchildren. One son, Ramon Conrad, is a graduate of Duke University. Another son, Gerard, is a graduate of Kenyon College, Cornell University, and the University of North Carolina (Chapel Hill) Law School. Since their retirement, the Solises have resided in Valrico, Florida. Sources: Appalachian State University files, and personal correspondence. -Dr. Kay R.

Person An individual, biographical data, birth and death, etc. Biographical Text Professor Emeritus of Economics William (Bill) Guthrie (June 25, 1948-) was born in Detroit, Michigan, the only child of Kathryn Synder (1912-1991) and William G. Guthrie, Jr. (1913-1962). Guthrie graduated from Waterford-Kettering High School, Waterford, Michigan, in 1966. He enlisted in the United States Army in January of1967. After basic infantry training at Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri, he was assigned to the Defense Language Institute at the Presidio of Monterey in California (where Special Operations' Forces receive instruction in foreign languages). For nine months, he underwent an extensive study of Czech, the native language of his maternal grandparents and great-grandparents. After graduation from the Defense Language Institute, Guthrie was transferred to the Defense Department's communications intelligence school at Goodfellow Air Force Base in San Angelo, Texas. Upon completion of training, he was assigned to a United States Army Security Agency Field Station in the Federal Republic of Germany. Shortly thereafter, he was transferred t o a remote detachment near the border of West Germany and Czechoslovakia, where he served for the majority of the remaining thirty months of his tour. Between July of 1971 and December of 1973, Guthrie completed his undergraduate studies (graduating magna cum laude) and also six hours of graduate credit, first at Oakland Community College and finally at Western Michigan University. Upon graduation from Western, he accepted a position as a Traffic Engineering Assistant at the (then) General Telephone Company of Michigan. There, a co-worker arranged a blind date for Guthrie with Rose Elizabeth Bursey. After a brief courtship and engagement, they were married in August of 1975.They set up housekeeping in Kalamazoo, Michigan, where they both pursued graduate studies at Western Michigan-Mrs. Guthrie in library science and Dr. Guthrie in economics and statistics. The experience of teaching micro-economics to legally blind students motivated Guthrie to set his sights on a doctoral degree in economics and a career in college teaching. During the summer of 1976, the couple moved to Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Mrs. Guthrie completed her Master of Library Science degree (1977) and worked at a variety of jobs to support her husband during his four years in the doctoral program in economics at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill. Upon provisional acceptance of his thesis in 1980, Guthrie obtained an appointment as assistant professor of economics at Appalachian State University. He remained at Appalachian for nearly nineteen years, teaching a variety of courses in economics and business statistics and publishing some thirty-seven articles, comments and reviews in professional journals. He also served on the College of Business Honors Committee and its Graduate Curriculum Committee;the Chancellor's Scholarship Committee; and, the University's Humanities Committee in addition to performing numerous committee assignments within the Economics Department. Guthrie's two major research interests involved understanding the works of John Maynard Keynes and evaluating the philosophical foundations of the various methodologies employed by professional economists. He was an active member in the Southern Economic Association, the Atlantic Economic Association, and the History of Economics Society; he frequently served as an anonymous referee for the articles submitted to the journals of these organizations. He also served as the corporate treasurer for the First Presbyterian Church of Boone for an eighteen-month period.In December of 1998, Guthrie retired from the University of North Carolina system and spent the next year consulting, serving as an interim assistant financial manager for the Watauga County Children's Council (a member of the North Carolina Partnership for Children), and completing Duke University's certification program in Not-for-Profit Management. In the spring of 2000, he returned to the classroom as an adjunct professor of economics, finance, and accounting at Lees-McRae College in Banner Elk, North Carolina. He was appointed to a full-time position as visiting professor of business and economics at Lees-McRae, beginning in the fall of 2001.In October 2002, Dr. Guthrie was appointed professor emeritus at Appalachian State University, truly a capstone honor that he will proudly cite as he moves on to new appointments.Sources: Appalachian State University files and personal correspondence. -Kathy C.

Person An individual, biographical data, birth and death, etc. Biographical Text Professor Emeritus of Music Elmer Russell White, Jr. (March 29, 1936-January 4, 2004) was born in Ashland, Kentucky, to the late Viola Sparks and Elmer R. White. He graduated from Ashland High School and was an Eagle Scout. He was a member of the 202nd Army Band for many years. White earned an A.B. degree in music from Marshall University, Huntington, West Virginia, in 1957. While at Marshall, he placed first in the Charleston, West Virginia, Orchestra Concerto Competition and was a featured soloist with the orchestra in a performance of the Haydn Trumpet Concerto. He also earned the distinction of being one of only four trumpet students selected nationally to be members of the Tanglewood Festival Orchestra in Lenox, Massachusetts, the summer residence of the Boston Symphony Orchestra. There he studied with Roger Voisin, principal trumpet of the Boston Symphony, and played under internationally renowned orchestral conductors; Leonard Bernstein, director of the New York Philharmonic Orchestra; Arthur Fiedler, director of the Boston Pops Orchestra; Charles Munch, director of the Boston Symphony Orchestra; Aaron Copland, noted composer; Lucas Foss, and others.

White taught band and choral music in Kentucky and Ohio public schools. He was awarded the M.F.A. degree in trumpet performance from Ohio University, Columbus, in 1959, where he served as graduate assistant to Charles Minelli, director of bands. That same year, he accepted a faculty position at Youngstown State University, Youngstown, Youngston, Ohio, as professor of trumpet and director of bands. From 1959 to 1963, he was a member of the Youngstown Philharmonic Orchestra. It was during this time that he met his future wife, Joan Lynn Botsco, an oboist in the orchestra. They were married on June 3, 1961, at St. Dominic Church in Youngstown. The Whites traveled the Blue Ridge Parkway on their honeymoon, and spent two days in Boone, North Carolina, before heading east to the Outer Banks of North Carolina. The couple had three sons: Elmer Russell III (February 17, 1962-April 22, 1989), Phi Beta Kappa (University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill), and a student in the Medical School at Duke University at the time of his death; Allan Stephen (January 31, 1963-), an Eagle Scout, and commercial fisherman in Kodiak, Alaska; and Dr. Marc Michael White (August 6, 1964-), a graduate of University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill and the University of North Texas, and now a professor of music at Southeastern Oklahoma State University, Durant, Oklahoma. In 1989, Drs. Lynn and Elmer White established an endowed scholarship in the name of their deceased son at his alma mater, the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, for deserving pre-medical students. White joined the faculty at Appalachian State University in 1963 as an assistant professor of music. He taught a wide variety of music classes and ensembles during a thirty-year-plus career. In 1972 he earned the Ed.D. degree from Columbia University in New York City, where he conducted and co-authored several research studies, studied trumpet with Roy Stevens, and taught brass students at Bronxville High School in New York City. As a freelance trumpeter in New York, he played with such groups at The Bob Crosby Bobcats and in backup orchestras for Liberace, Helen Reddy, and others. White's research studies pertaining to trumpet- tone production and behavioral modification in music were published in national and international research journals and were also presented at national music conventions. He earned the rank of professor in 1977. During his thirty-seven-year teaching career at Appalachian State, Dr. White distinguished himself as a trumpet teacher, performer, researcher, clinician, adjudicator, and mentor to hundreds of students. For decades, he drove groups of students in an Appalachian State van to New York City, where they took trumpet lessons with his teacher; heard concerts by the New York Philharmonic Orchestra; and attended Metropolitan Opera productions, Carnegia Hall recitals, and jazz performances; and experienced the sights of Dr. White's favorite big city. White established and conducted the Appalachian Wind Ensemble and directed the Appalachian State University jazz ensembles. He was appointed director of Graduate Studies in Music, and served on several university committees including the Academic Policies and Procedures Committee, the Graduate Council, the Search Committee for the music department chair, and the Graduate Admissions Committee in music. His professional affiliations include the North Carolina Music Education Association (chair, Higher Education Division); Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia; the National Association of Wind and Percussion Instructors; the National Association of Jazz Educators; the College Music Society; the International Trumpet Guild; and the Society for Research in Music Education. During his academic career, Dr. White performed with such groups as the Appalachian Faculty Brass Quintet, the Appalachian Faculty Woodwind Quintet, the Cannon Camp Faculty Brass Quintet, and various faculty mixed ensembles.

In 1966, she earned her master's degree in administration and supervision from the University of Florida. Lawrence taught in all grades of the elementary school and, for two years, directed the Early Childhood Center at Christ Methodist Church in Neptune Beach, Florida. In 1968, Lawrence accepted a position in the Department of Elementary Education at the University of Florida, where she worked for two years. She began work on her doctorate in curriculum and instruction, which was granted in 1972. Dr. Lawrence accepted a position at Appalachian State University in 1972, teaching early childhood, elementary, and middle-grade education until 1975, when she was appointed assistant dean of education.

Person An individual, biographical data, birth and death, etc. Biographical Text Professor Emeritus of Education Dr. E.W. Wadsworth (December 3,1917 -) was born in Tallassee, Alabama to Ada Floyd Winningham and Lucious Alonza Wadsworth. He attended Tallassee Public Schools from 1924-1936, where he was editor of his high school newspaper"Talla-Hi News" and valedictorian of his graduating class. Dr. Wadsworth completed his undergraduate work at Troy State University. His extracurricular activities included editing the "Tropolitan" student newspaper and serving as president of the International Relations Club. He was also a member of Pi Kappa Omega Honor Society. He was graduated with honors in 1939, receiving his B.S. degree in Education. Wadsworth continued his education at Auburn University. He taught American History while he completed his M.S. degree in Science and Literature. At Auburn he was a member of Kappa Delta Pi and Phi Kappa Phi Honor Societies. His master's thesis was entitled "Tallassee: Some Aspects of Textile and Hydro-Electric Power". Later he returned to Auburn to complete the Ed.M. degree (1947) and the Ph.D. degree (1968). In June of 1941, he married Ann D. Stewart of Auburn, Alabama. Their union produced two daughters, Ann Stewart and Cynthia Hardy, and two grandchildren, Andrew George Reish and Sarah Kathryn Thomason. Upon volunteering for Aviation Cadet Training Airforce, Wadsworth was assigned to writing unit histories of Eastern Technical Training Command. He later transferred to Flight Operations Third Air Force and was honorably discharged in April, 1946. Wadsworth then taught Science and History at Hurt Military School in Montgomery, Alabama for one year before serving as assistant principal and science teacher at Tuskegee High School from 1947-1950. In 1951, he was named principal of Tuskegee's elementary and high schools, a position he maintained throughout the tumultuous period of federally mandated integration, which initiated a 100 percent boycott by white students and, ultimately, led to Governor Wallace's orders to close the school in February, 1964. He resigned from Tuskegee in June, 1964 and moved on to serve as principal of Coffee High School, one of the ten largest high schools in North Alabama. In addition to his professional responsibilities, Wadsworth was deeply involved in community life. He served two terms each as president of the Tuskegee Lions and Rotary Clubs. He was president of the Macon County 195 Historical Association and wrote numerous short histories of Macon County. He was named president of the Macon County Teachers Association twice and also served as president of the District Principals Association. He served as chairman of the Community Christmas Decoration Committee for a number of years and was active in the Tuskegee Methodist Church in the capacities of teacher, administrator, and committee member. In 1968, Wadsworth joined the faculty at Appalachian State University as an associate professor in the College of Education and in 1972 he was promoted to the rank of professor. Dr. Wadsworth received the rank of professor emeritus in 1988. Wadsworth's years at Appalachian have seen him in a number of roles. He served as president of the Appalachian Chapter of NCAE, president and charter member of Phi Kappa Phi, and president of Phi Delta Kappa. He served on the Faculty Senate for two terms and was faculty marshall in 1973.

Person An individual, biographical data, birth and death, etc. Biographical Text Professor Emeritus of Health, Physical Education and Recreation Robert William "Red" Watkins (February 28, 1905 - ), college professor and wrestling coach, was born in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, the son of the late Daniel Thomas Watkins and Cora Nunn Watkins. Daniel Watkins owned and operated a lumber yard in WinstonSalem. “Red” Watkins attended elementary school in Winston-Salem and graduated from Reynolds High School there in 1927. He played four years of football and was chosen All-State Center. He also played four years of baseball and two years of basketball. Watkins married Martha McGill Delaney Watkins (June 24, 1910, Charlotte, North Carolina - November 30, 1980) on October 11, 1936 in Mountain City, Tennessee. Barnard Dougherty served as best man. The couple were blessed with three children. Robert James (Bobby) Watkins (June 9, 1939, Boone, North Carolina - ) married Vickie Wilhelm Watkins on September 29, 1962. Their children: Robbie (September 26, 1963) Susie (September 10, 1968 - ), Shannon (August 11, 1971 - ). Dianne Burroughs (February 16, 1943, Boone, North Carolina ) married Dr. Paul Burroughs on May 28, 1966. Their children: Paul, Jr. (June 15 1967 - ), Peter (December 25, 1969 - ), and Marshall (October 10, 1971 - ). Daniel Boswell (Danny) Watkins (February 21, 1950 in Boone, North Carolina - ) married Patty Payne Watkins on January 1979. "Red" Watkins attended Duke University in 1927-28 and participated in football and wrestling. He graduated from Maryville College in Maryville, Tennessee, in 1931 where he played three years of football, played three years of baseball (captain in 1931), and organized and wrestled on the first intercollegiate wrestling team in the State of Tennessee. He taught and coached the first wrestling team at High Point College in 1930-31, and also coached wrestling at High Point High School during 1930-31. Watkins began his teaching and coaching duties at Appalachian State University in 1932 and during that year organized its first wrestling team, He compiled the most impressive won-lost records in the nation with his teams winning 240 dual meets while losing only 18 between 1932 and 1970 when he stepped down as ASU wrestling coach. His teams had five undefeated seasons, and the 1950 team set a national record with 379 points. His teams also won fourteen North Carolina Amateur Athletic Union titles. Watkins noted that "there is no sport which requires such close coordination of mind and body as wrestling. Every muscle of the body is used to achieve the end which only an alert mind can conceive. A fine body with a slow brain never attains success." Watkins was also head coach of Appalachian State University's football team from 1940-42; served as director of athletics from 1940- 44; and, was chairman of the Health and Physical Education Department from 1940-44. "Red" Watkins was one of the nine original inductees into the Appalachian State University Athletic Hall of Fame in 1975. In retirement, Watkins resides in Boone, North Carolina and continues to maintain a keen interest not only in ASU wrestling but in all sports and other activities relating to the university and community. He does find time, however, to keep up with the achievements of his "boys"--former members of his teams--and he visits as much as possible with his children and grandchildren.

Person An individual, biographical data, birth and death, etc. Biographical Text Professor Emerita of Art Catherine Jeanette Smith (August 29, 1901 - ), a retired art professor, was born in Plymouth, Pennsylvania, the daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Dennis Francis Smith (a surgeon). She was an only child and attended Wyoming Seminary, a boarding school in Plymouth. At the insistence of her stepfather, George Bryant, who was impressed with her artistic abilities, Miss Smith studied art at Syracuse University in New York. Miss Smith received undergraduate and graduate degrees from Oklahoma University, where she also taught before coming to Appalachian State Teachers College (now Appalachian State University) in 1941. She replaced Glenda Walker as "the art department" at Appalachian and was chairperson for 25 years. In 1957, Miss Smith was awarded a fellowship to study art at The Hague in the Netherlands, one of two students from the United States selected. She traveled extensively throughout Europe and to other continents, viewing firsthand the paintings she was able to bring to life in her classroom. She began teaching at Appalachian during World War II. Art was required for a major in education, and although most of her students had never held a paintbrush, Miss Smith was an inspiration. She taught every type of art course from art appreciation to drawing and painting. Some of her students went on to study art further and became artists in their own right. She believed that home economics majors should know something about cloth, so she taught the first weaving courses at Appalachian. She founded the first art club and was a member of Delta Kappa Gamma. Miss Smith retired in 1966 after 25 years of opening doors for students, whether through the appreciation of art or through her generosity. Many students made it through Appalachian because of financial assistance from Miss Smith. On November 20, 1983, the gallery in Farthing Auditorium was named for her and dedicated the Catherine Smith Gallery. At the time of the dedication, a bust of Miss Smith was placed in the gallery with the inscription: "With loving persistence, she instilled an appreciation for the fine arts in her students." Miss Smith has supported Appalachian in many ways, not the least of which was her contribution as a founder of the Appalachian Cultural Center, located in University Hall and scheduled to open in 1986 as a museum, art gallery, exhibition hall, and center for the preservation and promotion of regional culture. Miss Smith has retired to the countryside near Boone and enjoys fine art, music, literature, and travel.

Her music education began at the age of eight, with the study of the alto saxophone. By the age of sixteen, she had added formal training on the oboe, flute, and clarinet and had attended the annual summer music camp at Ohio State University in Columbus, for three years. White graduated from Woodrow Wilson High School in Youngstown and received both a merit and talent scholarship to the Dana School of Music at Youngstown State University, Youngstown, Ohio, where she pursued a major in both music performance and music education, as a woodwind specialist. She studied all the major orchestral woodwind instruments, adding bassoon to her performing repertoire. Her teachers, members of the Cleveland Orchestra and the Pittsburgh Symphony, included Bernard Goldberg and Walter Mayhall on flute, Eugene Chieffo and John Mack on oboe, Mark Dolliver and Charles Aurand on clarinet, and George Goslee and Jay Raven on bassoon. At the age of eighteen, White was selected to be the principal oboist in the Youngstown Philharmonic Orchestra. During her college years, she also taught woodwind students at four public schools in the Youngstown area. It was during her senior year at Youngstown State University that Dr. White met her future husband, Elmer R. White, who had accepted a faculty position at the university as professor of trumpet and director of bands. He also became a member of the Youngstown Philharmonic Orchestra. On June 3, 1961, Elmer and Lynn White were married at St. Dominic Church in Youngstown. They traveled the Blue Ridge Parkway on their honeymoon and spent two days in Boone, North Carolina, before heading east to the Outer Banks of North Carolina.

Flute Talk 8.1 (September 1988). • "Flute Tone Quality: Does the Metal Make a Difference?" The Instrumentalist 43.10 (May 1989). During her thirty-five years of teaching at Appalachian State University, Dr. White established herself as a woodwind instrument teacher, performer, researcher, clinician, and adjudicator. She taught both undergraduate and graduate courses in woodwind instrument playing techniques and served on several university committees. Dr. White was a member of the graduate faculty. Her professional affiliations include the North Carolina Music Education Association, the National Flute Association, the International Double Reed Society, Pi Kappa Lambda, the College Music Society, the Society for Research in Music Education and Sigma Alpha Iota.

During their forty-two years of marriage, Drs. Elmer and Lynn White traveled extensively to thirty-seven states and to Canada, Austria, Czechoslovakia, Iceland, and Scotland. They shared a passion for classic cars and rode their Harley motorcycles together for ten years. The Whites performed together in many concerts, on and off campus, during their careers at Appalachian State University. Dr. Lynn White retired from Appalachian State University in 2001, at which time she was awarded the rank of professor emerita. Following her retirement, she and her husband established the largest endowed scholarship fund in the School of Music at Appalachian State University, the Elmer and Lynn White Wind Instrument Scholarship Endowment, which is awarded to four music students annually. Since her husband's death in January 2004, Dr. White has remained active musically, performing on her musical instruments, singing in her church choir, traveling, attending concerts and classic car shows, and visiting with family and friends.

Person An individual, biographical data, birth and death, etc. Biographical Text Professor Emerita of Theatre and Dance Linda Welden (September 22, 1942-) was born in Senoia, Georgia, three days before her father, Charles Francis Welden, left home to serve as a tank commander under General Patton in World War II. Her mother, the former Dorothy Thompson, had the support of a large extended family, whose ancestors had all been pioneers in Coweta County, Georgia, since 1828, when the county was purchased by the state from the Creek tribe. Welden's brother, Charles Michael, was born the year following Charles Francis's return from the war. Mike became a history instructor in middle Georgia. His family includes two daughters, Jennifer and Jane, and three grandchildren, Rachel, Erin, and Caroline Hampton, all of Macon, Georgia. Welden was an honor graduate of East Coweta High School in 1962 and went on from there to earn an A.A. degree in liberal arts at Reinhardt College in Waleska, Georgia. Her main interests were in teacher education and in performance, and she was president of both the student National Education Association and the Theatre Club and also sang in the college choir. In 1962 she received a Georgia Teachers Scholarship to Georgia Southern College in Statesboro, from the State Department of Education. Welden majored in English at Georgia Southern and minored in theatre, receiving a B.S.Ed, degree in 1964. She was an active member of the theatre organization, Masquers, and was, as well, an officer in the Wesley Foundation while attending the college. As a condition of her scholarship, Welden was required to teach in Georgia for three years, and she returned to her hometown high school, East Coweta, to fulfill this requirement. There, in addition to English, she taught civics and American government, directed plays for competition, served as advisor to the yearbook and the student paper, coached the debate team, and in her last year was senior class advisor. In the summers following her graduation, Welden completed work on a Master of Science for Teachers' degree at Georgia Southern, again with a major in English. Her degree was awarded in 1968. In 1967, Welden moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico, and was employed at the Harwood School, a Methodist mission school for emotionally disturbed girls, where she taught English, directed plays, and supervised the yearbook staff. The next year she accepted a position in the Department of English at Georgia Southern, and, in 1970, she was admitted to the doctoral program of the Department of Speech at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge. At Louisiana State University, Welden had assistantships in costume, makeup, and teaching and was inducted into the honor society of Phi Kappa Phi. After presenting a paper at the Southern States Communication Association in Louisville, Kentucky, Dr. Welden was approached by representatives from Appalachian State University who wanted her to take a position in their Department of Speech, teaching oral interpretation. When she came to Appalachian State in 1973, she was responsible for the interpretation program and for many years wrote and directed readers theatre productions for public performance. Welden's research interests were in Southern fiction and poetry and in performance techniques; her dissertation, completed in 1977, was an historical study of Professor Hiram Corson of Cornell, who taught Shakespeare through the method of oral performance. Welden received tenure in 1976; she was awarded a Ph.D. degree from Louisiana State in August of 1977, and she attained the rank of professor in 1983. After Appalachian State's Department of Speech underwent several transitions, eventually breaking into two departments, Dr. Welden became a member, in 1989, of the newly formed Department of Theatre and Dance. Her teaching included oral interpretation and group performance classes, as well as courses in dramatic literature. Welden also directed a show each year in the university theatre season. Dr. Welden maintained memberships in the Carolinas Speech Communication Association and was its president in 1988. When the North Carolina Theatre Conference broke away from that organization, she continued to present papers and workshops at the annual convention. Welden spent several summers acting and directing in summer stock in Georgia, New York, and North Carolina. She has published critical essays in Contemporary Fiction Writers of the South and in Contemporary Poets, Dramatists, Essayists, and Novelists of the South. Her regional service includes many years as a director for the Blue Ridge Community Theatre; she served as well on the theatre's board of directors and held the office of president within the organization. A member of Boone United Methodist Church, for many years she sang in the choir and continues to be active in Sunday School, the Emmaus groups, and United Methodist Women. Welden was also chair of the board of directors of Appalachian State's Wesley Foundation, and in 1977, she served as acting chair of the Department of Theatre and Dance. In 2003, Dr. Welden entered Appalachian State's phased-retirement program, teaching and directing in the fall semester. Granted emerita status by the university's Board of Trustees in December 2004, fully retiring in June 2006, she continues to make her home in Boone where she does volunteer work, spends time with friends, reads, does needlework, and attends local art productions. She also enjoys having time to travel and recently returned home from a cruise in the Mediterranean. She is also the proud adoptive parent of Phoebe, a pastel calico.

Person An individual, biographical data, birth and death, etc. Biographical Text Professor Emeritus of the Hayes School of Music Arthur Emerson Unsworth, Jr., (November 30, 1935-) was born to Bessie Mae Barker and Arthur Emerson Unsworth, Sr., in Atlantic City, New Jersey. He is the oldest in a family of four children; his siblings--Gari Beth Unsworth Cline, Geri Grace Unsworth Paterno, and Norman Joseph Unsworth--were also born in New Jersey. Although Unsworth's father was part owner of an automobile dealership, his interest was in jazz; he performed regularly as a pianist in the New Jersey New York, and Philadelphia areas. At age fourteen, Unsworth began playing trumpet on club dates with his father's quartet, and he has continued to perform in commercial music venues since that time. In addition, Unsworth has performed on trumpet with the Sun Valley Symphony, the Phoenix Symphony, and the Brigham Young University Faculty Brass Quintet. As a pianist, he was featured in many recitals while at Appalachian State University. Following graduation from Vineland High School in 1954, Unsworth attended Trenton State College (The College of New Jersey, Ewing), receiving a B.S. degree in music education and a M.A. degree in music composition. He then earned an Ed.D. degree, with a major in music theory, from Arizona State University in Tempe. While involved in doctoral study, Unsworth married his favorite accompanist, Shirley Blanche Decker. Dr. Unsworth began his collegiate teaching career in 1971 at Delta State University, Cleveland, Mississippi, where he taught music theory and history courses. After three years at Delta State, the Unsworths moved to Provo, Utah, for a five-year stint at Brigham Young University, where Dr. Unsworth was coordinator of lower division music theory. During this period, he designed and produced a series of sixty-five video tapes, with accompanying drill materials, for teaching music theory concepts. A move to administration was next, as Dr. Unsworth went to the Crane School of Music at Potsdam College in the State University of New York System, where he spent eleven years as associate dean of music. The final change of locale was the move to Boone, North Carolina, where he assumed the position of dean of the Hayes School of Music at Appalachian State in 1989. After eleven years as dean of music, Dr. Unsworth requested a promotion to the music faculty, where he served as director of the music industry studies and taught music theory courses for four years prior to his retirement. His teaching efforts have been rewarded with excellence awards from the Student Government Association (2001) and the School of Music (2002). During his tenure at Appalachian State, Unsworth also co-authored (2003) the music appreciation text Crossroads in Music, which is published by Wadsworth /Thomson. While mothering six children, Shirley, Unsworth's wife of over four decades, has managed to acquire two masters' degrees (music and English), thus setting a wonderful example of meeting the academic challenge. She recently retired from the faculty of Caldwell Community College. The Unsworths' children are, in chronological order: Erik, who has degrees in music composition (Appalachian State), jazz bass (University of Indiana, Bloomington), and studio recording (Institute of Audio Engineering), and who teaches jazz and commercial music at the University of Texas, El Paso; Adam, who has degrees in music performance (Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois, and the University of Wisconsin), and has assumed a position teaching French horn at the University of Michigan; Andrew, who has degrees in organ performance (Brigham Young University, Provo, Utah) and musicology (Duke University, Durham, North Carolina), is an organist with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Salt Lake City; Austin, who has a degree in industrial design (Brigham Young University), works as a designer for a dental equipment firm in Charlotte, North Carolina; Allison, who has degrees in violin performance (Brigham Young University), is currently loving her position as a full-time, stay-at-home mom; and Alan, who is currently on the library staff at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill. The Unsworths feel that a healthy, active, and close family is certainly life's most wonderful blessing. Finally, for five years, Dr. Unsworth held the position of president of the local branch of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and he has taught religion classes for college-age students.
