Our son Kevin graduated from Hampshire College today with a Bachelor of Arts degree. Hampshire has a unique way of molding and evaluating students with more written reviews than most colleges and I wanted to share with you some of the comments written in Kevin's final evaluation by his committee which consisted of 2 Hampshire Professors and a Professor from
Amherst
College
:
- During his Hampshire career Kevin served as the facilitator for theatre board - the governing body of elected students responsible for running the production component of the theatre program. He learned diplomacy in the face of great challenges, skill in empathetic engagement and wisdom/maturity which were also essential tools for producing work at Hampshire
- Kevin is a prolific playwright
Kevin's writing acknowledges the reality of our society
Kevin's plays always have their own voice
Kevin's work is of tremendous imagination
Kevin's Division III produced an astonishing volume of work
As a playwright/activist Kevin is tireless in his efforts to bring to light social ails through theatre and as an arts manager, he is diplomatic, wise and mature and we have much confidence in his future as a theatre artist.
Kevin completed what he started 4 years ago and now its time to begin the next chapter in his life.
Kevin we love you and are very proud of you.
Congratulations
