The Big Picture - Cathy Craddock
Teacher, Oxford Street Day Care Cooperative
For 26 years, Cathy Craddock has taught some of the youngest "scholars" in the Harvard community: preschoolers who attend the Oxford Street Day Care Cooperative, one of six Harvard-affiliated day-care centers.
The generous voice of a humanist
Neil L. Rudenstine's new book "Pointing Our Thoughts: Reflections on Harvard and Higher Education, 1991-2001" stands as an appropriate symbol of its author's achievement as Harvard's 26th president.

Librarians honor Rudenstine
At the May 23 Librarians' Assembly held in Sanders Theatre, Harvard's library community honored outgoing Harvard President Neil L. Rudenstine (left). On behalf of the Librarians' Assembly, Ethel E. Hellman (right), collections conservator for Widener Library, presented Rudenstine with a bound collection of bookplates from throughout the Harvard University Library system. The book itself was designed by Pamela Spitzmueller, the James W. Needham Chief Conservator for Special Collections. It is bound in dark green leather and incised with an abbreviated map of old and new Harvard Yards. The map highlights Widener Library and Massachusetts Hall - thus emphasizing the strong connection between Harvard's president and Harvard's libraries.
