Dear Min,
Driving to Norwalk, Connecticut from central New Jersey was hard for
me on a Wednesday morning. But it was so worth it! I was on my way to Norwalk
Community College and I had a very precious shoe box with me. Its value was
worth far more than the shoes that had originally come in it. I was excited.
This was a big day for me. And for my father. That's right. My father, Dr. Harry
A. Becker. I miss him so much and of course love him dearly. April 5, 2006 was a
special day for my dad. I felt his presence and his pleasure. I was doing the
right thing.
Some of you may be unclear as to where I am going in this
little adventure. Stay with me. Soon it will all be clear. In 1961 my father was
the Superintendent of Schools in Norwalk, Connecticut. He was also one of the
founders and the first President of the Norwalk
Community College. For years he had a dream of starting the first community
college in the state of Connecticut. He wanted this college to be housed in his
town, Norwalk. Finally the dream came true. For the first few years the high
school housed the college and the students came. Semester by semester the
college grew and when my dad stepped down as President in 1966 the college was
well on its way to becoming a major community college. Check it out at Norwalk
Community College. Now close to 12000 full and part-time students attend the
school. It has a lovely campus and buildings and just take a look at the
programming! I would love to take courses there myself.
So, let's go
back to my personal adventure this day. When I arrived at NCC
the 2006 Academic Festival was already in progress. Lots of wonderful programs
were going on. All day students attended lectures around the theme: Social
Justice and Education: fitting the pieces together. But it was the 12:00 program
I was rushing to. The one titled: Dr. Harry Becker Archives, Library. Now do you
have a clue as to what made the shoe box in the back seat of my car so precious?

 Another
Recipe for Enchantment
A gift to
you...
Take some time for yourself. Play, read, laugh, call a friend, sleep, eat
good food and think about these wise words that have been "floating around the
web again and again".
You may not realize it, but
At least 2
people in this world love you so much they would risk dying for you.
At
least 15 people in this world love you in some way.
A smile from you can
bring happiness to anyone, even if they don't like
you.
Every night,
SOMEONE thinks about you before they go to sleep.
You mean the world to
someone.
If not for you, someone may not be living.
You are
special and unique.
When you make the biggest mistake ever, something
good can still come
from it.
When you think the world has turned its
back on you, take a look: you
most likely turned your back on the
world.
Always remember the compliments you received. Forget about the
rude
remarks.
If you have a great friend, take the time to let them
know that they are
great.
