I was gratified to learn from the summer issue of Tile Hill that he indeed became an artist. He has expanded the concept of "spoon." His splendid sculptures are of great variety, yet each is of wood, and all arc "spoon": a hitherto thought pedestrian object about which, if one about it at all, was of its name _ one of those inherently it vaguely comic words. Were our SOciety to redefine "celebrity" so as to prize such artisans as Norm rather than vacuous "personalities," Norm would be a national treasure. We would have known about Norm and his visions before now. Thank you for bringing Norm and his art into focus. Greg Williams '72 Mors/ons Mills, Moss. Name-Chance Hassled Too I recently read story about McDaniel a graduate Danlelle Rowlett Tate, who started her own marriage namechange business after being frustrated with the process after her wedding. Last October, J changed my last name to my husband's last name, and I wanted to change my middle name to my maiden name. Istarted the name-change process using my marriage certificate, then J hit road block when I found out that the a DMV, Social Security and the electric company required me to get a name change court order to change my middle name. It surprised me - and the married women in my - that something so common for so many years life now required a lengthy and expensive legal process that includes court appearance, criminal background a check, and even publicizing your new name in newspapers. A lot of the people working at the front desks didn't even know about these new policies! Congratulations to Danielle for starting your own business (I just started my own professional organizing business, Sara Long Organizing, last year) and for finding a cause so in demand. Good luck!

Family Togetherness Enriches Our Lives My family has also experienced the benefits of extended family togetherness, a subject featured in the summer issue of The Hill the story "Everybody Into in the Picture." Eight years ago, my husband and I built an adjoining log cabin onto the custom log home built by my daughter Becky Jackson '84 Butler and her husband Bob '83 on beautiful mountainside property between Frederick and Hagerstown. There has not been a downside to this arrangement. We've greatly enjoyed our ability to participate fully in our grandsons' lives (the eldest, Woody, is now a freshman at McDanieI). My youngest grandson said, "I can go visit grandmom without even telling my mother." They keep us yoU!~g. SherryPhefps]acksor159 Woljsville,Md. TRIVIA CHALLENGE RESULTS In the summer issue we asked readers to identify the building on campus where this architectural detail can be found. Decker College Center is the correct answer. Mary Cutter, the mother of Kaitlin '10, got it right and won the drawing for a free copy of Fearless and Bold, the new College history book by Dr. lames E. Lightner '59.
