Abstract | Cathy Stuart was Co-President of the Campus Y from 1974 to 1975. Stuart describes how she became involved with the Campus Y through Anne Queen, who she met as a prospective student visiting campus. Including several interesting anecdotes about Anne Queen and other central figures at the Y, Stuart describes the Y as a community comprised of students, faculty and staff, all of whom committed to working on issues larger than themselves. Stuart emphasizes the importance of practicing community service with a humble heart. Stuart also recalls her participation in the Y’s Walk for Humanity, and in the student advisory team which helped the staff and advisory board search for Anne Queen’s successor to the Y directorship. Cathy describes her experience with the Y as one that changed her absolutely, and how it shaped her values and her goals. She says her experience with the Y has colored many of the decisions she has made in her postgraduate life, both personally and in her career as an attorney. |
