Vice President for Institutional Advancement G. Holger "Hogie" Hansen will be promoted to the position of Secretary of the College, according to Haverford President Tom Tritton. His major duties will be in the area of capital gifts and College governance, and he will continue to work with the Board of Managers, the campus community and the president's office in developing strategy for the College's next major capital campaign. "In thinking about the scope and importance of this campaign I have come to realize that I will critically rely on the expertise and experience of Hogie," says Tritton. Hansen has served as Vice President for Institutional Advancement for 18 years.
On June 2-17, 1999, Professor of Music Curt Cacioppo will lead an enticing journey through one of the world's most spectacularly beautiful and richly historic countries.
The trip begins with five days in the imperial city of Rome. From Rome the tour will continue to Perugia, with a stop in Orvieto and a visit to Assisi. It will then travel on to Ravenna, with stops in Sansepolcro and Ferrara. After Ravena, the group will spend four days in Venice, with excursions to Padua and Vicenza. The tour concludes in Como, after a stop in Verona.
Professor Cacioppo, who has been teaching, composing and performing music at Haverford since 1983, will offer commentaries on the musical importance of each of the sites visited. In Venice, he will present a live piano recital with works by composers such as Liszt, whose pilgrimage to Italy inspired some of his most vivid music.

Professor Matacic will retire in June, 1999, after thirty-five years at Haverford. Since 1981, she has directed the Minority Science Scholars Program (MSSP); the new scholarship fund will reflect her commitment to the MSSP by providing support to minority students studying in the sciences at Haverford. Alumni who wish to share in this recognition of Slavica may send their gifts to the attention of Hogie Hansen, Vice President for Institutional Advancement.
ROGER LANE SCHOLARSHIP FUND
Several alumni and friends of Roger Lane have established the Roger Lane Scholarship Fund in recognition and appreciation of his thirty-six years of teaching at Haverford. Roger will retire at the end of this academic year as the Benjamin Collins Professor of the Social Sciences. The scholarship fund will provide financial aid to minority students who are alumni of the A Better Chance Program. The Lane scholars will be selected on the basis of creativity and the quality of the student's academic and community service record. Alumni who wish to share in this recognition of Roger may send their gifts to the attention of Hogie Hansen, Vice President for Institutional Advancement.
