Institutional Governance and the Trustees of Anatolia College 71
34. anatolia histories and memoirs abound. (see, e.g., notes 1 and 33 supra.)
dr. George e. White, 2 nd President of anatolia college (1913-1933), describes the
beginnings in “Adventuring with Anatolia College” (herald-register 1940).
35. see Peter Balakian “Burning Tigris: The Armenian Genocide and America’s
Response” (2003), which received the 2005 raphael lemkin Prize and was a New
York Times “bestseller.” as to the hangings of the anatolia students symeon ananiadis,
Pavlides, and their professors in 1921, also see efthymios Kouzinos,
“Twenty-three Years in Asia Minor 1899-1922” (vantage, newYork 1969).
36. It should be recalled that before popular air travel in the 1950’s and 1960’s,
a trans-atlantic and european crossing could take a fortnight - not to mention the
cost. contacts were by mail and telegraph.
37. together with two other american hellenic Institute colleagues, trustee
emeritus Gene rossides and Jim Marketos, the author is the editor of the two
volume foreign investment service on “Doing Business In Greece” (ahI foundation,
Washington, d.c. 1996, 2000), which contributed in part to paying off the
mortgage on the hellenic house in Washington, d.c.
38. In thessaloniki during the 1970’s and 1980’s, usIs, american express, and
us military cars were struck with bombs. It is clear from recovered surveillance
reports that the terrorist organization “17 November” surveilled other american
institutions in thessaloniki during 1990-92, but apparently not anatolia. (Interview
with Brady Kiesling, author and former us diplomat, citing 17 november
computer files in To Vima 2002.)
39. to paraphrase the stephens title that says it all (note 33 supra).
40. Well-founded initiatives and development are clearly favored. this is indicated,
in part, by great growth over the last 38 years. among others, the Business
school, act, MBa, IB, elementary and Kindergarten, and Msu were added. as
President Jackson pointed out (ccc forward) this extended the Institution’s services
to parallel asia Minor levels. What is more, the high representation of Presidents
and ceo’s of other organizations on the Board is particularly well
positioned to identify with the executive perspective.
