Kristy B. Rogers '00 Memorial Flagpole
To commemorate the Class of 2000's 5th reunion, the reunion committee elected to dedicate the flagpole in the new Gene Shirk Stadium in memory of our classmate, Kristy B. Rogers '00. To accomplish this, our goal is to raise $10,000 over 3 years. This means that pledges may be made over a 3-year period, beginning during fiscal 2006 and ending in fiscal 2009. Each and every gift, no matter the size, is equally important and vital in our goal to name the flagpole in Kristy's honor!

About Kristy
Kristy B. Rogers '00 died July 4th, 2002. Kristy graduated cum laude with a Bachelor's Degree in Child and Family Studies. Following graduation, Kristy pursued a Master's degree in Psychology with a concentration in Community Counseling from Villanova University. It was Kristy's strong desire to make people's lives better that led her to pursue her studies with such vigor.
For those that knew Kristy they will remember her sunny and glowing personality, her warmth and concern for others, and her unforgettable smile. It was the fullness with which Kristy pursued living that influenced and infused others with a sense of appreciation and gratitude for life. In knowing Kristy you knew how to appreciate and treasure the simple beauty of living and loving others. It would undoubtedly be Kristy's strongest desire to know that she will forever be etched in our minds and memories as someone who was able to use her time here to inspire others to live and appreciate fully the wonderful gift of life we all have.

Tree Dedicated in Honor of William R. Bishop Jr.,
Emeritus Professor of History
Beloved professor William R. Bishop Jr. taught history at Albright from 1948 until 1981, when he retired and was named emeritus professor of history. After Professor Bishop passed away on Jan. 1, 2007, at the age of 90, his family and friends began an effort to plant a tree on Albright's campus in his honor.
On April 1, 2007, a Cherokee Brave Dogwood tree was dedicated to Professor Bishop. About 30 relatives and friends attended the dedication. Many of them shared fond memories of Professor Bishop, and reminisced about his time at Albright and in Reading. Rev. Paul Clark '73, Albright chaplain and a former student and friend of Professor Bishop's, led the dedication. The tree is located on the Memorial Chapel lawn along Thirteenth Street.
