A Listening Ear in a Challenging Time
Submitted by Charlie Warren ’81
When the space shuttle exploded, I was watching in Rotary Hall. I ran over to the English Department and found Dr. Jefferson Hendricks. He hadn’t heard the news and listened to me tell him what had just happened. He didn’t run to a TV or the news, he just listened to me.
That’s what I remember about Dr. Jeff Hendricks: Always taking the time to listen to his students, to care, and to be available to us.
Dr. Hendricks embodies the Centenary spirit and helped me in ways I’ve never forgotten.
