Alumni philanthropy reaches new high
Contributions by Ozarks’ alumni
continued to reach new heights during
the 2003-2004 fiscal year as 20.6
percent of alumni households provided
philanthropic support to their alma
mater.
The tenth of a percent increase over
the previous year marked the fourth
consecutive year that alumni giving has
increased at the university.
“When the alumni of an institution
provide strong philanthropic support to
that institution, it sends a tremendously
positive signal to other prospective
donors,” said Executive Vice President
Steve Edmisten. “Over the last four
years, Ozarks’ alumni have provided a
resounding vote of confidence in
Ozarks through their gifts to the Annual
Scholarship Fund and for other
University causes. This, in turn,
motivated more non-alumni donors to
give, further strengthening the
University. When alumni make this
happen through their gifts to Ozarks,
not only does the quality of the
University improve dramatically, so too
does the value of their degrees from
Ozarks.”

A total of 761 alumni households
— which includes known households
consisting of at least one alumnus —
gave gifts ranging from $5 to $20,000
during the 2003-2004 year. Alumni
donors made up 65 percent of those
who gave to Ozarks in 2003-2004.
“The university’s largest group of
donors is its alumni, and we are pleased
to see that this group is achieving more
and more,” said Director of Alumni
Relations Reba Pridgin. “Each year we
see new donors from our alumni base
and these are people who have
developed a desire to show their pride
in their school, to assist a new
generation of Ozarks students, to
develop a new affiliation with Ozarks
through giving, or to share a little of
their accomplishments because Ozarks
gave them the opportunity to succeed in
life. Alumni are encouraged to share
and to share consistently!”
One new incentive for alumni this
year is the Alumni Association Giving
Challenge, in which the organization
will match gifts up to $100 given by
first-time alumni donors.
Your gift to the Annual Scholarship Fund supports students like Lindsey, a senior
biology major from Benton, Ark. Lindsey, whose career goal is to become a
pharmacist, epitomizes the type of students who thrive at a small, Christianaffiliated liberal arts college like Ozarks. She is not only a dedicated student who
has been on the honor list every semester, but she also excels on the soccer field
with the Lady Eagles, sings with the University Chorus and serves as the
worship leader for the Baptist Collegiate Ministries. Your support of the Annual
Scholarship Fund will help empower Ozarks students like Lindsey. For more

Ozarks ranked in top tier for sixth year
For the sixth consecutive year the
University of the Ozarks has been
ranked as a “top tier” university in the
U.S. News & World Report’s annual late
summer publication that examines
institutions of higher education.
In the 2005 edition of “America’s
Best Colleges,” released on Aug. 20,
Ozarks was ranked in a tie for ninth
overall among 106 universities in the
category of Comprehensive Colleges
(Bachelor’s) in the South Region. The
ninth-place ranking is the highest ever
for U of O, which was ranked No. 12 in
the South in 2004 and No. 14 in 2003.
In the annual “America’s Best
Colleges” edition, U.S. News & World
Report ranked more than 1,400
accredited schools nationally, based on
such criteria as academic reputation,
graduation and retention rates, faculty
resources, student selectivity, financial
resources and alumni giving. In the
magazine’s “Great Schools, Great
Prices” category, Ozarks ranked third
overall among the South’s 106
Comprehensive Colleges (Bachelor’s).
Ozarks has been ranked in the
South Region’s top five “Best Values”
by the magazine in each of the past six
years. The value rankings evaluate the
cost of attending a college or university
relative to the quality of the institution,
according to the magazine’s ranking
system.
“I am pleased that the University
of the Ozarks is once again recognized
by U.S. News & World Report as being
a top tier campus in the South Region,”
said U of O President Dr. Rick Niece.
“At Ozarks we continue to dedicate
ourselves to providing a high-quality,
personalized education for our students,
and it’s satisfying to have a national
publication commend our excellence.
Equally gratifying is our ranking as the
third best value in the South. The
annual ranking and our continued high
status are a tribute to everyone
connected with Ozarks.”

Humanities professors become authors
A lifelong interest in Native
Americans was the common inspiration
for two new books written by
professors in Ozarks’ Humanities and
Fine Arts Division.
Dr. Dave Daily, assistant professor
of religion, and Dr. Steve Oatis,
assistant professor of history, recently
became first-time authors with the
publication of their scholarly books.
Daily’s book, published by the
University of Arizona Press, is titled,
Battle for the BIA: G.E.E. Lindquist and
the Missionary Crusade Against John
Collier. Oatis’ book, which is published
by the University of Nebraska Press is
titled, A Colonial Complex: South
Carolina’s Frontiers in the Era of the
Yamasee War, 1680-1730.
Daily’s book is about an intensely
personal and high-stakes battle for
control over the Bureau of Indian
Affairs and the direction of federal
Indian policy. Pitting G.E.E. Lindquist,
an influential Protestant missionary,
against John Collier, Commissioner of
Indian Affairs (1933-1945), this battle
ultimately changed the shape of
Protestant support for Indian
assimilation, according to Daily.
Daily said the inspiration for the
book dated back to his childhood when
he and his family took vacations to
Arizona, New
Mexico and Utah.
“The scenery
was great, but
learning about the
Navajos and
Pueblos was also
fun,” said Daily.
“Then, during my
first year in
graduate school, I took a
course on religious diversity and
change in the American West. The
course rekindled my interest in Native
American history and missions to
Native Americans.”
Professors and first-time authors (from
left) Dr. Dave Daily and Dr. Steve Oatis.
The University of Arizona Press
said Daily’s “survey of Lindquist’s
career raises important issues regarding
tribal rights and the place of Native
peoples in American society. It offers
new insights into the domestic
colonialism practiced
by the United States
as it tells of one of
the great untold
battles in the
history of Indian
affairs.”
Dr. Daily, who
earned his Ph.D.
from Duke
University, has been at
Ozarks since 2000.
Oatis’ book is billed as one of the
first detailed studies of the conflict
between an upstart British Colony in
South Carolina and its Indian
neighbors, most notably the Yamasees,
a group whose sovereignty had become
increasingly threatened. The South
Carolina militia retaliated repeatedly
until, by 1717, the Yamasees were
nearly annihilated, and their survivors
fled to Spanish Florida. The war not
only sent shock waves throughout
South Carolina’s government, economy,
and society, but also had a profound
impact on colonial and Indian cultures
from the Atlantic Coast to the
Mississippi River.
Drawing on a diverse range of
colonial records, “A Colonial Complex”
builds on recent developments in
frontier history and depicts the Yamasee
War as part of a colonial complex: A
broad pattern of exchange that linked
the Southeast’s Indian, African, and
European cultures throughout the late
17th and early 18th centuries.
Oatis said the book is based on a
dissertation that he did in his Ph.D.
work at Emory College.
“I've always been interested in
Native American history, from the time I
was a kid, and when I got to graduate
school I was intrigued by all the
possibilities that were out there for
studying the interaction between Indians
and Europeans,” said Oatis, who has
been at Ozarks since 1999. “I chose to
study the Yamasee War and the early
history of South Carolina partly because
I was going to grad school at Emory
that has a strong emphasis on Southern
history and partly because the historical
records were relatively close by. The
more I got into the project, though, the
more I learned just how much there was
about the topic that hadn’t been
explored or discussed yet.”
Taddie attends conference
Dr. Daniel Taddie, Ozarks’ vice
president for academic affairs and
dean of faculty, recently attended the
Harvard Institute for Educational
Management at Harvard University in
Cambridge, Mass.
Dr. Taddie was one of 94 higher
education senior leaders to attend the
two-week program. The program was
taught by Harvard professors as well
as administrators from throughout the
country. Topics included internal and
external leadership, developing and
working with senior leadership teams,
governance, finance, assessment,
campus community, innovation and
change in a changing environment,
technology, transformational learning,
planning, vision and values.

First couple displays Southern hospitality
When Ozarks President Dr. Rick Niece and his wife
Sherée were interviewing for the top position at the university
in the spring of 1997, they met with several graduating
seniors. One of the things that stood out in those discussions
was that many of those seniors had never been to the
President’s Home.
“We were surprised that these students had been here four
or five years and had never stepped foot in the President’s
Home,” Dr. Niece said. “It just didn’t make any sense to us. I
think it was at that point we decided if we were to get the
opportunity to come to Ozarks, we would change that.”
Change it they would. In the past seven years since they
have become the first couple of Ozarks, the number of guests
the Nieces have hosted in their home has surpassed a
whopping 18,000, many of them students.
Most of the students have entered the President’s Home as
part of three new traditions the Nieces began in their first year
at Ozarks: New Student Dinners, Senior Dinners and the
Graduating Seniors Luncheon. The Nieces’ hospitality is such
a novelty that the student dinners were featured in a large,
front-page article in Arkansas’ state-wide newspaper, The
Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, in September.
The president’s 3,300-square-foot, two-story house was
built in 1969 through donations by the university’s Alumni
Association.
“The Alumni Association built the President’s House and
we feel it’s important to share the house with our current and
future alumni, as well as the rest of the campus community,”
Dr. Niece said.
The New Student Dinners, usually held early in the Fall
Semester, have brought 2,266 incoming students to the
President’s Home. The dinners are usually held in groups of
about 25-30 and are held in what the Nieces call “the movie
room,” which is adorned with posters of some of their favorite
movies such as
Amadeus,
Casablanca and It’s a
Wonderful Life. One
example of a menu at
a recent dinner was
London broil with
steamed green beans,
fried potatoes and
chocolate cake.
“We started the

students,” said Sherée. “The dinners give us an opportunity to
get to know the students, learn their names, and to hear
something about each of them. At the same time, they learn
about us in a more personal, interactive and relaxed setting.”
Students are often surprised to see the university’s
president going from table to table refilling glasses of tea or
offering coffee to the guests.
“By opening our home to the students and to the Ozarks’
community, we are able to model our strong sense of service
to others,” said Sherée. “We want students to understand that
serving others is a privilege.”
Senior Dinners, held in November each academic year,
are a time for the Nieces to thank the seniors for sharing their
college years with them.
“We enjoy watching students grow and develop interests
as they pursue their studies,” Sherée said. “We also even
remember where many of the seniors sat during their New
Student Dinners. In many ways, they have become our
children during their stay at Ozarks. By having them in our
home near the completion of their education, we learn about
their hopes and dreams for the future.”
The Alumni Office uses the Senior Dinners and the
Graduating Senior Luncheon in the spring to inform the
seniors about their new status as U of O alumni and to
welcome them as the newest chapter in Ozarks’ history.
“Seniors typically find these dinners as an opportunity to
reminisce about the times we all shared at Ozarks,” Dr. Niece
said. “Many feel sad at the thought of leaving Ozarks upon
graduation.”

Campus stages own debate
in midst of political season
Linda Grace Carcamo
1978-2003
As the nation’s presidential election
heated up in the fall, the campus
community got into the spirit of the
political season by staging its own
presidential debate.
On Oct. 6, a student presidential
debate was held on campus in front of a
large and spirited group of students. The
program consisted of a formal debate,
followed by a question-and-answer
stage from the audience.
The moderator was political science
professor Dr. Stewart Dippel. The
debate panelists were divided as liberal
and conservative, instead of Democrat
and Republican.
“Over one-third of the country is
independent or undecided for this year’s
election, and even after the election is
over this country will still face the same
issues,” Dippel told the crowd.
The panelists for the liberal side
were Adam Ivy, a junior political
science major from Mountain View,
Ark., and Robert Hines, a junior
political science and international
economics major from Little Rock.
The panelists for the conservative
side were Elizabeth Drye and David
Ray. Drye is a senior political science
major from Sheridan, Ark., and Ray is a
freshman political science major from
Brighton, Tenn.
During the formal debate, each side
was allowed three minutes to respond to
the question and to the opposing side’s
response. Some of the issues touched on
included the War on Terror, a free Iraq,
the possibility of the draft being reinstated, the country’s debt, homeland
security, environmental issues, the
Patriot Act and social security. The
panelists also stated what they envision
for America over the next 20 years.
Some of the issues raised by the
audience were homosexual marriages,
outsourcing jobs and farming.

the event. The students took the debate
very seriously, showing up with stickers
and signs to show their support.
“The signs were fabulous,” said
Hines. “The debate was fun, and it
encouraged and persuaded students to
vote at this election.”
“The signs were awesome,” said
Drye. “I was surprised and pleased with
the size of the crowd. It proved the
students do care and are politically
active. We are a generation that is
active and do care about this country.”
Ray shared the same pride. “It’s
great that such a large number of
students are interested in the issues that
affect our country,” he said.
“I think the debate went extremely
well,” Ivy said. “The turnout was the
best thing about the debate. We had
over 150 people at the debate.”
Ivy believes that the debate helped
individuals become more involved in
politics and the election.
“It is up to us to decide the nation’s
future,” Ivy said. “We cannot just sit on
the sidelines.”
Dippel said he was impressed with
how prepared the panelists were.
“The American people could learn
just as much about the issues by
watching our student debate as they
could if they’d watched the presidential
debate,” Dippel said. “The quality of
the student debate was high and the
substance was on the same level.”

Campus community lends helping hand
When the Clarksville Housing
Authority (CHA) lost one of its main
suppliers of donated foods for its tenants
last summer, the university community
stepped in to fill the void.
CHA, which serves almost 100
households in the area, was notified last
spring that its main supplier of
nonperishable food items, ARVAC,
would no longer be able to supply
certain items, including soups, canned
meat, fruit and cereal.
Ozarks’ Critical Inquiry (CI)
program — which includes a required
first-semester class for new students to
help them get acclimated to college life
— came to the rescue of the CHA food
pantry by sponsoring a semester-long
food drive that yielded numerous bags
of food and other items.
The genesis of the efforts in helping
CHA came about from Dr. Sharon
Gorman’s CI class. Gorman, professor
of music and university organist, also
serves as the campus coordinator for the
CI program.
Gorman’s CI course syllabus states
that the class mission is to “look closely
at how we, as individuals and as a
group, can make a difference in the
world.”
“When we heard that there was a

need, the students in my class agreed to
sponsor a food drive on campus,” said
Gorman. “A big part of the CI class is
learning the importance of becoming
involved in community service
activities, and this is exactly the type of
effort that can help make a difference.
We felt like it was a good way to get the
entire campus involved in the effort.”
Lucia Gomez, a sophomore from
Nicaragua, was one of the students who
helped coordinate the food drive.
“We heard that oftentimes the
elderly have to choose between
medicine and food and that really
touched us,” Gomez said. “We put up
posters and signs around campus and
sent out e-mails to get food. Everyone
on campus really supported and helped
out in the project. It’s been a memorable
experience.”
The campus community donated
food items such as pasta, cereal, rice,
canned soups and fruits and peanut
butter, as well as other items like
shampoo, toothpaste and lotion. In
addition, CI classes volunteered their
time to CHA in other areas, including
decorating and preparing food trays for
tenant functions, sweeping and cleaning
porch areas at elderly/handicapped
units, weeding flower beds, raking
leaves and trimming hedges. Ozarks
students even provided entertainment at
some of the CHA functions.
“The Clarksville Housing Authority
has been very fortunate to have
received help from Ozarks students this
fall,” said CHA Executive Director
Metta Holman. “We were named the
Arkansas National Association of
Housing and Redevelopment Officials’
2004 Agency of the Year in September.
This award was obtained largely due to
our community outreach activities and
food bank.
“We appreciate the continued
support of our program and its goals by
University of the Ozarks’ faculty, staff
and students.”

Eagles & Lady Eagles
2004-05 Basketball Schedule
U of O basketball players and
brothers Brent and Brad Johnson have
grown accustomed to playing basketball
together for years, but this season is
different. It is their final opportunity to
compete together, and both want to
make the most of it.
“We definitely want to go to the
conference post-season tournament,”
said Brent, the older of the two. “I
would like to finish my senior season
winning the tournament, and we’d like
to have the chance to do that together.”
The Johnsons, who are expected to
be the starting backcourt for the Eagles
this season, grew up in Ozark, Ark., and
were known as hard-nosed, competitive
players on the court at Ozark High
School. That competitive spirit has
continued with them in college. Sister
Lacey was an honorable-mention allconference player for Ozarks in 2001.
“We are all very competitive,” said
Brad. “It was always a battle between us
when we were kids. We’ve played
basketball ever since we were big
enough to shoot a ball towards the hoop.
Playing games against each other in the
backyard are some of the most
memorable times I’ve had with Brent.”
Following all-state high school
careers, the Johnsons have found
success in college as well.
Brent, a 6-2 shooting guard, missed
all of the 2002-2003 season with a knee
injury but bounced back last year to be
named an American Southwest
Conference All-East Division first-team
member. A solid outside shooter who
also likes to drive hard to the basket,
Brent averaged a team-high 15.4 points
a game last year and led the team in
three-pointers with 48. He is closing in
on 1,000 career points. He is also one of
the team's top defenders as evidenced by
his team-high 45 steals last year.
Brad, a quick 5-10 junior point
guard, has been a floor-leader and
defensive standout, ranking among the
top assists and steal leaders in the ASC
the past two seasons. He averaged 3.2
points last season and has 136 assists the
past two years.
“They really help set the tone of our
team,” said head coach Matt O’Connor.
“They work hard in practice every day
and their toughness and competitiveness
are seen by the entire team. They are
close, and they support each other in
everything they do. You can tell there’s
a real bond there.”
Hard work is something the brothers
take tremendous pride in.
“Nothing comes easy and that’s what
we’ve been taught all of our life,” said
Brent, a physical education major who
would like to go into coaching when he
graduates. “We knew nothing would
ever be given to us, so we’ve had to
work for it. Learning to work hard at a
young age has really helped us.”
Led by the Johnsons and a bevy of
returning guards such as Caleb Hilton,
Josh Joyner, Jacob Sibley and Scott
McCall, the Eagles are expected to use a
fast-paced, uptempo style to improve on
last year’s record of 11-14 overall and 86 in the ASC. In the preseason coaches’
poll, Ozarks was picked to finish fourth
in the eight-team ASC East Division.

Lady Eagles set
sights skyward
First-year Lady Eagles basketball
coach Kelly Stutz will count on a small
group of returning players as well as
several new players to help improve on
last year’s 10-15 record.
Stutz, who came to Ozarks after a
four-year stint as an assistant coach at
Ashland University in Ohio, replaces
Jack Jones, who stepped down last
spring after 25 seasons at the college.
The Lady Eagles do not return a
starter from last season and have just
one senior. They do, however, return
five quality lettermen. Guard play
should be the strength of the squad with
experienced shooters in Lori Moon,
Lindsey Nietert, Erica Newell, Becky
Kimball and DeAnna Miller.
Freshman guards Karen Garcia and
Erica Eneks should also contribute. The
Lady Eagles’ inside strength will
depend on the play of returner Jeanne
Randall and freshman Olivia Fisher.

Sixty years ago the Ozarks campus moved off College Hill
and into the First Presbyterian Church in Clarksville after the
U.S. Navy took over the college for a training program
M
argaret (Wright) French Biazo remembers how
exciting it was to watch a new class of U.S. Navy
men get off the train in downtown Clarksville and
march up College Hill to a campus that had been transformed
from a place of higher education to a naval training facility.
“We knew exactly when they would arrive each week
and we’d make sure to be out there,” said French. “It was just
not the sort of thing we were used to seeing in Clarksville.”
It was sixty years ago that the U.S. Navy took over what
was then The College of the Ozarks for a program called
elementary electricity and radio materiel electronics (EE &
RM School) training. In actuality, it was early radar training.
The entire college, which then had about 150 students,
was moved down the hill to the Presbyterian Church.
During the height of World War II, the Ozarks campus
played a significant role in helping the country’s war efforts
by giving the U.S. Navy full control of the university’s
facilities to run its training program. The Navy occupied the
Ozarks campus from January 1944 to April of 1945.
Biazo ended up meeting a young Navy recruit from
Kingsville, Texas, Robert French, at a Sunday afternoon
social in 1945. They were married six months later and were
together for 52 years before he passed away in 1997.
“We became acquainted with the Navy men when they
would come to visit us,” said Biazo, who remarried in 2003
and is living in Springdale, Ark. “Friendships were made, in
which many cases led to lasting relationships.”
Professor and historian Dr. Raymond Watson of Huntsville, Ala., has done extensive research on the Navy program,
12 Today, FALL/WINTER 2004
which was officially called Radio Materiel Training School.
According to Watson, “radio” was a cover for “radar,” which
was still secret and in its early stages at the time. Initiated in
January 1942, immediately after Pearl Harbor, EE & RM
School was considered the most difficult training program for
enlisted personnel offered during the war.
“It was said that the average IQ of successful students in
the program exceeded that of graduates from Harvard, MIT
and similar schools,” said Watson.
Entrance to the program was through the Eddy Test,
which had about a 25 percent pass record. Those passing the
Eddy Test first attended a one-month
pre-radio school (offered at several
junior colleges in Chicago) that had
about a 50 percent passing rate.
From there, they went to one of
eight Primary Schools located around
the country. The Primary Schools
consisted of a three-month training
period and had a pass rate of about 70
percent. The training program at
Ozarks was originally at the Naval
Research Laboratory in Washington,
D.C., but transferred to Ozarks in
Margaret (Wright)
January 1944, according to Watson.

Electrical School in Maryland; Utah State; Dearborn, Mich.;
and Monterey, Calif.
Those making it through Primary School then went to
Secondary School, a six-month activity at one of four locations — three for ship equipment and one for aircraft systems.
Attendees at the EE & RM schools were Navy, Marine
and Coast Guard enlisted men. The instructors were mainly
Navy and Marine personnel, usually with civilian teaching
experience. One of the instructors at Ozarks was a Marine
named Frank Genochio, who later served in the South Pacific
where he was instrumental in establishing the “Navaho Code
Talkers,” made famous in the 2002 film Windtalkers.
Weekday classes ran nine hours, with a required study
period in the evenings. Saturday mornings were for examinations. John Westkaemper of Austin, Texas, a retired engineering professor, was part of the training program’s last class at
Ozarks. He recalls the classes covering such topics as electrical theory, principles of vacuum tubes and the operation of
various circuits using those tubes.
“Navy life picked up dramatically when I arrived in
Clarksville,” Westkaemper said. “The location was attractive,
the duties weren’t onerous, the people were pleasant and the
weather was nice. We were given liberty on weekends, and
because Clarksville was small and didn’t have any beer
joints, we soon learned that Russellville was more exciting.
We spent a lot of weekends in Russellville.”
College officials learned that the Navy would take over
the campus in early December of 1943. In a span of about
three weeks, the college set up shop at the Presbyterian
Church, complete with administrative offices, library, labs
and classrooms.
In a 1944 article for School and Society journal, Richard
Armour wrote about the Ozarks’ frantic efforts to move the
campus:
In January of 1945, the entire university moved down the hill to
the First Presbyterian Church.
Instructors in the U.S. Navy Radio Materiel Training School pose
for a photo in front of Munger Chapel in 1945.
“There was work to be done. Partitions and plastering
had to be thrown up to subdivide the two large Sundayschool departments into eight reasonably soundproof classrooms. College cafeteria equipment had to be transferred to
the church kitchen. All the educational paraphernalia,
including laboratory equipment and 15,000 books, had to be
brought down the hill to the church. … President, dean,
faculty members and students went to work with a zest and
energy that amazed even themselves … The decision to move
was made on December 9. On January 5, college classes
began in the new location … The months went by. The naval
school grew to 1,000, graduating a class of 100 each week.
The college settled down to its routine. Students accepted
their new surroundings and cheerfully went to church every
day. “When the war is over,” they said quietly, “we shall go
back up on the hill.”
While classes were held in the various rooms, including
the sanctuary, of the First Presbyterian Church, many of the
college’s female students were housed in the church’s adjoining Manse, a house of 12 to 14 rooms.
“There were probably 40 or 50 of us crowded into that
house; four or six to a room” said Helen McElree, a 1947
Ozarks graduate who lives in Fayetteville, Ark. “It sure made
it difficult to find time to get a shower with that many girls
living in the house.”
Watson estimates that a total of about 30,000 men went
through the entire EE & RM program, of which about 3,000
(or 10 percent) were stationed at the Ozarks campus at one
time. If, as some historians say, radar helped win world
World War II, then Ozarks played a small role.
“This (radar) training, its creative originators, and the
students involved deserve recognition in modern history,”
Watson said.
The college’s only profit from the U.S. Navy during the
period was in the rental of the facilities, which totaled $1,100
a month. But even that did not cover the inconvenience and
cost the college incurred in setting up temporary accommodations.
However, as the college Board of Trustees minutes from
June 1, 1945 so succinctly record, the true benefit was the
college’s “satisfaction in serving the country.”

Dr. Charles Liston has proven that
a career as a research aquatic scientist
can be an exciting and fulfilling
profession.
Liston, a 1965 Ozarks graduate,
retired in November after a 15-year
career with the U.S. Department of the
Interior’s Bureau of Reclamation, an
agency whose mission is to manage,
develop and protect water and related
resources in an environmentally and
economically sound manner in the
interest of the American public.
Working out of an office in Denver
as well as a home office in Kentucky,
Liston directed, coordinated and
applied fisheries research and technology development for numerous water
projects throughout the Western United
States. Over the past 20 years he has
been considered one of the country’s
leading experts on how water development projects such as dams and
hydropower plants affect the environment, especially fish.
“It really has been a rewarding and
enjoyable career,” said Liston, who
served as student government president
at Ozarks in 1965. “I’ve had the
opportunity to raft the Grand Canyon
and other rivers in the West, hike all
over Wyoming, Montana, Arizona and
help make a difference for the environment. It’s been wonderful.”
Liston, an Illinois native who came
to Ozarks through a connection with
the Presbyterian Church, said an early
interest in science and the outdoors
blossomed at Ozarks.
“Professors like Ruby Reynolds
made the subject matter very interesting, and the location of the university
made it easy to go hiking or fishing all
the time,” he said.
After earning graduate degrees
from the University of Arkansas and
the University of Louisville, Liston

went on to an 18-year stint as a
professor in Michigan State
University’s Department of Fisheries
and Wildlife. While at MSU, he began
research on hydropower effects on
Lake Michigan’s fish, an expertise
that would lead the U.S. Government
to come courting him in the late
1980s.
Despite what seems like a very
focused and specialized career, Liston
believes his liberal arts training at
Ozarks has helped make his life more
balanced.
“I really treasure the education I
received at Ozarks because it was
broad, and it allowed me to dabble in
a lot of different areas,” he said. “I
think a lot of colleges are getting too
focused in subject matter. I have an
interest in a lot of different subjects
and love to read different books. I got
a lot of that from Ozarks.”
Liston, who has been married to
his wife Elizabeth for more than 30
years, will continue to do advisory
work within the profession as well as
community volunteering.

Alaska community honors Ward ’48
Doris Owen Ward has always had
a sense of adventure about her, so it’s
little surprise that she has ended up
making a difference in a small community in Alaska.
Ward, a 1948 Ozarks graduate, has
lived in Haines, Alaska, since 1965,
moving there to teach high school
English almost 40 years ago. Haines is
a picturesque community of about
2,000 people situated on the upper end
of the Inside Passage in southeast
Alaska. The community, in an area
known as the Valley of the Eagles, is
surrounded by snowcapped mountains, lush meadows and dense forests.
“When I got off the ferry, I think
my mouth was agape for the first
couple of days,” said Ward, who grew
up in Beebe, Ark. “The funny thing is
that I didn’t really care for the cold.
But, needless to say, I got used to it.”
Retired since the mid-1970s, Ward
has turned her energies in the last
quarter of a century toward community service in Haines, volunteering
her time and resources in such areas as
the library, museum, Presbyterian
Church and the schools. She has made
such an impact on the small community that she was honored on June 13
with a surprise reception declaring it
as Doris Owen Ward Appreciation
Day. The celebration, held in an
impressive new community library,
was attended by numerous people in
the community, including the mayor.
The highlight of the event was the
announcement that the library’s community room would be named the Doris
Owen Ward Community Room.
“I was completely bowled over by
all of it,” said Ward. “It was a big
surprise and a great honor, especially
the naming of the community room. I
just couldn’t get over it.”
Ward said growing up in rural
Arkansas, she always had an urge “to
