UCC Fall 2002 - Union County College Foundation

Cranford • Elizabeth • Plainfield 

Scotch Plains 

The dynamic new President 

of UCC’s Alumni Association 

is Gail Ann Denman, 

1970 Liberal Arts major. 

After baby-sitting many 

hours while at Cranford 

High, Gail Ann worked 

fulltime in retail sales, and 

part-time pumping gas and 

doing the bookkeeping for a 

gas station. Her career path 

included other non-traditional 

jobs: she became a 

pioneer in law enforcement, 

first as an intelligence 

analyst for the Union 

County Prosecutor’s office, 

then as a County Investigator 

and an FBI agent. When 

the FBI recruited her in 1976, 

she was one of only three 

women in law enforcement 

in New Jersey. 

About Union 

New Leadership for UCC Alumni 

Gail Ann followed her 

brother, the late Gene 

Denman, ’50, to UCC, where 

she took night classes and 

was a library aide. When her 

father died, a sympathetic 

counselor arranged for her to 

get the financial support that 

enabled her to stay in school. 

She transferred to Old 

Dominion University in 

Norfolk, VA, where she 

graduated as a Sociology 

major, with minors in 

Spanish, English, and 

Psychology. 

FBI Agent Denman’s first 

assignment was the Newark 

office, where she investigated 

potential Carter presidential 

appointments, was a decoy in 

a bank robbery shootout, and 

promoted the FBI’s efforts to 

ALUMNI LEADERSHIP. 

At the June 2002 meeting the UCC Alumni Association 

inducted new officers and board members. Posing here are 

(l. to r.) Cathy Meyers, ’98, First Vice President, Gina 

Caivano, ’91, Treasurer, new trustee Alberta Machese, ’95, 

Gail Ann Denman, ’70, President, and Brian K. Reilly, ’96, 

Second Vice President. Others are: Diane Krajenski, ’79, 

Corresponding Secretary, Nancy Benz, ‘73, Recording 

Secretary, Suzanne Covine, ’58, Marion Curka, ’50, Mary 

Lou Gray, ’48, Harry Kreis, ’49, Patrick LaQuaglia, ’76, 

Marion Menzer,’47 and Immediate Past President Naomi 

Mirlocca, ’57. 

hire women and minorities. 

She went undercover for 

several years, posing with a 

male agent as high rollers 

from Chicago operating a 

bottle club called 

“Hernando’s Hideaway”. 

The story of the elaborate 

sting operation they set up 

in Mississippi is fascinating. 

It resulted in the conviction 

of a corrupt sheriff, which as 

she puts it, “was the bell 

tolling for the end of the 

upheaval of civil rights 

violations”. Come to the 

Alumni Association meeting 

on February 10 th to hear 

about her never boring 

career as one of the first 

women FBI agents. 

Gail Ann Denman loves 

this College and looks 

forward to helping the 

Alumni Association to raise 

more scholarship money, “in 

repayment to those individuals 

at UCC who were so 

significant in my life when I 

needed their guidance, 

counsel and intellect the 

most…Counselor Tony 

Cobert and Professors Ted 

Tharney and Charles Varela, 

among others, made it

possible for me to put grief 

aside and helped to find the 

money and give me the will 

to finish college and succeed… 

Had it not been for 

EEOG funding, college 

employment and counseling 

after my father’s death, I 

might have made the 

biggest mistake in my life – 

failing to finish college. My 

path was not clear – this 

College and the staff made 

me see clearly then and 

now.” U

MAY ALUMNI 

REUNION. 

Among alumni who 

braved an awful 

storm to attend the 

reunion on May 18 th 

in the Cranford 

Commons was 

Yvonne LaMons, 

shown here with 

College President 

Dr. Thomas H. 

Brown. 

A “GOLDEN OWL”. 

Clementine Burns 

Tabor, ’52 and 

husband Francis, 

from Westfield, NJ 

at the Alumni 

Reunion in May. 

Clementine was 

inducted into the 

Society of the 

Golden Owls. 

?DID YOU 

KNOW? 

… that the Admiral 

Stanley Room on the second 

floor of the MacKay 

Library is named for the 

first trustee emeritus of 

Union Junior College, Admiral 

Emery D. Stanley, 

USN (Ret.)? After a 40year 

naval career (1905- 

1945), he served on the 

Cranford Township Committee, 

one year as mayor, 

and also ten years as a UC 

trustee. 

After his death in 

1968 at age 86, then President 

Kenneth C. MacKay, 

in his inimitable fashion, 

wrote that the Admiral 

was a familiar figure on 

campus. “…leaning hard 

to windward in the salty 

tradition of a brave race of 

seafarers…For Admiral 

Stanley, the white sails of 

our fund-raising ship 

never luffed…a sizeable 

segment of all three of our 

buildings stands as a testament 

to his generosity 

and unstinting efforts on 

behalf of the College. 

Those splendid UC’ers 

who today possess college 

education and degrees 

through the timely 

help of his anonymous 

scholarships are living 

earnest of his benefactions.”

A Memorable Graduation 

College President Dr. 

Thomas H. Brown told the 

750 graduates on May 22 nd 

that their class “is truly 

representative of the diversity 

that has strengthened the 

fabric of America for 226 

years…It is this diversity that 

is the antithesis of the 

message that the 9/11 

terrorists were attempting to 

deliver.” The ceremony had 

especially poignant moments 

when a degree was presented 

posthumously to the 12-year 

old granddaughter of 49-year 

old Colombian native Arcelia 

Castillo, who was only two 

courses away from achieving 

her dream of a college degree 

when she was killed at her 

office in the World Trade 

Center. As Dr. Brown noted, 

“her spirit and her tenacious 

quest for education are not 

forgotten.” 

Student representative 

Ernest T. Caldwell, Jr. 

enthralled the audience with 

his eloquent and emotional 

address to the graduating 

class. After acknowledging 

the responsibility he felt as 

the spokesman for the Class 

of 2002, he said, “ But I must 

admit, I think I am the right 

person for the job. I am the 

epitome of why community 

colleges exist – to remove 

geographic and economic 

barriers to educational opportunity… 

and discover and develop 

individual talents.” He 

recounted the “draconian 

barriers” he faced in pursuing 

an education, including 

being placed in special 

Ernest T. Caldwell, Jr., ’02 

education classes and being 

labeled a failure and a highrisk 

child who might be dead 

or in jail before age 25. 

He said he got a second 

chance at Union County 

College, which “saved my 

life.” He graduated as 

President of the Student 

Government and Black 

Student Heritage Organizations, 

an Academic Learning 

Center tutor, Student 

Ambassador, member of two 

honor societies and Editorin-Chief 

of The Sheaf, the 

student literary magazine. 

And he is a Ronald E. 

McNair Scholar who has 

presented his original 

research at five universities. 

His rousing conclusion was: 

“For me, Union County 

College was life saving – a 

MUST DO…Not having a 

UCC education would not 

have allowed me to be the 

person I want to be – a 

scholar, a future Ph.D. who 

will be coming back home to 

UCC for two things: Number 

one – to submit my 

dissertation to the MacKay 

Library archives, and, 

Number Two - to endow the 


Scholarship for the Educationally 

Disadvantaged. 

How about that?!” 

Postscript: On May 20 

at the annual Awards Night 


became the first student to 

benefit from a $100,000 

bequest received this year 

from James N. Wise. Mr. 

Wise directed that this sum 

be applied to the George P. 

Zirnite Award, named for a 

former English professor 

and his dear friend. The 

2002 award thus totaled 

$4,500, by far the largest 

award ever given at the 

College. This award, with 

other scholarships and 

financial aid, is a big help to 

Ernest, who is now a 

student at Brown University 

in Providence, Rhode Island, 

where he is pursuing his 

dream. U 

ALUMNI PRIZE. 

Alumni Association President Naomi Mirlocca congratulates 

Elizabeth Garcia, who received the 2002 Alumni Prize for having 

the highest grade point average (4.0) with the most credits at UCC 

(65). Elizabeth is a native of Venezuela now living in Union and 

working on a degree in bilingual education at Kean U. 

Celebrate Founders’ Day 

at UCC on October 16 

It’s time to celebrate! To 

commemorate the College’s 

1933 birth and its rebirth in 

1982, UCC is planning to 

celebrate “Founders' Day” 

on October 16, 2002. The 

afternoon and evening will 

be filled with panels, 

speakers, displays, and 

events to mark the occasion. 

Union County College 

was founded in October 

1933 and 20 years ago, on 

August 17, 1982 the Board of 

Trustees of Union County 

College met for the first 

time, bringing into existence 

New Jersey’s nineteenth 

public county college. 

When it was formed by the 

merger of Union College 

(formerly Union County 

Junior College) and Union 

County Technical Institute, 

Mr. Sidney Lessner was 

elected the first Chairman of 

the Board of Trustees. The 

late Dr. Sol Orkin, an 

alumnus, was College 

President at the time and 

Governor Thomas Kean 

signed the Union County 

Reorganization Act into law. 

The Founders' Day 

theme is “Recollecting Our 

Heritage – 20 Years as UCC, 

70 Years of Excellence in 

Education”. At 4 PM a 

distinguished panel will 

discuss the arduous road that 

led to the Union County 

College we have today. 

Then at 7 PM the 

evening’s keynote speaker, 

the renowned historian Dr. 

Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr. will 

speak on “The Roosevelt 

Vision”. Dr. Schlesinger, 

author of 16 books, two-time 

Pulitzer Prize winner, and 

special assistant to the 

president in the Kennedy 

White House, will examine 

the origin of the “emergency 

junior colleges” created by 

President Franklin D. 

Roosevelt to give work to 

unemployed academics 

during the Great Depression. 

Unlike Union County Junior 

College (fondly called “Ucey 

Jucey”), most of these 

colleges did not survive and 

flourish. 

Plan to visit the Cranford 

campus on Wednesday, 

October 16 th and enjoy the 

exhibits, lectures and a 

birthday cake celebration.

From 

The Director 

Dear Friends, 

As the great British Prime Minister Benjamin 

Disraeli once said, “Only change is constant”. After five 

years of working with the Alumni Association, Ann 

Poskocil has passed the torch to me, and I look forward 

to working with all of you. Although she will be 

undertaking new responsibilities to address UCC’s 

changing fundraising needs, Ann will still be here and 

offering her guidance to us as we make this transition. 

Additionally, new officers and board members have 

been inducted and are eager to implement some new 

programs. 

We have had a very exciting year here at UCC. This 

summer, the campus was busy as ever, with the 

addition of the very well attended Timely Topics Speaker 

Series, along with summer session courses and the 

College for Kids and College for Teens programs. I 

expect this fall will be no different. Classes are underway 

here at UCC, and the Alumni Association is 

looking forward to a new year of friends, fun, and 

activities – including our second annual Crystal Ball 

Room - Your Psychic & Holistic Adventure on October 

18 th from 6- 11 PM and the 10th Annual UCC Foundation 

Gala on October 26th. 

Be sure to check your mailbox – and our website - 

for other upcoming events, including Alumni Night at 

the UCC Theater Project on September 27 th , and the 

December 8 th holiday trip to Hunterdon Hills Playhouse, 

as well as our annual holiday party. I hope you 

will join us for our meetings and events, and look 

forward to hearing from you – please send in the form 

on the last page and “stay in touch” by sharing your 

news! 

Lastly, I’d like to take this opportunity to thank 

everyone who supported Union County College this 

year, with gifts to the annual Shaping Our Future 

campaign and through the UCC Foundation’s special 

events. Your contributions, individually and together 

with others, add up to our success and make a big 

difference for UCC students. We appreciate your 

support! 

Best wishes for a happy and healthy autumn.

We All Read… 

The College Novel 

A new program initiated by 

Vice President for Academic 

Affairs Dr. Wallace Smith 

enriched the 2001-2002 school 

year at UCC. The College 

Novel project has a simple 

premise – to have everyone at 

Union County College 

(students, faculty, staff) read 

the same novel, and thus 

increase the sense of community. 

Everyone was invited to 

join the (inevitable) committee, 

to read the book, to 

participate in lunchtime 

discussions and attend 

lectures on contemporary 

literature. Professors in 

several disciplines found 

creative ways to incorporate 

the chosen novel, Russell 

Banks’ The Sweet Hereafter, 

into their courses, and it 

generated a lot of enthusiasm 

on campus. Laura Ciarrocca, 

‘02, of Westfield, won First 

Place in a student essay 

contest, and Anna Lian Tes 

won First Place in the artistic 

expression contest. Their 

entries can be seen on the 

UCC web site, www.ucc.edu: 

on the home page, SEARCH 

for College Novel. 

For the 2002-2003 year 

the College Novel Committee 

voted to have two 

college novels - Ernest 

Gaines’ A Lesson Before 

Dying for the fall semester 

and Bobbie Ann Mason’s In 

Country for the spring 

semester. These novels lend 

themselves to discussions on 

capital punishment, race 

relations, civil rights, the 

Vietnam War, post traumatic 

stress disorder, etc. Since 

both are steeped in some of 

the most important issues in 

American culture, the 

College Novel Committee 

and its Chairman Dr. Tim 

McCracken, Senior Professor 

of English, hope to see a 

broad range of participants 

and discussion topics. U

Alumni 

Profile 

Gina Caivano 

’91 

Gina Caivano loves 

learning and worked hard to 

put herself through school 

since she entered UCC in the 

1980’s as a Biology major, 

with thoughts of becoming a 

doctor. At times she 

managed a full-time job plus 

two part-time ones! Gina 

graduated as a Business 

major from UCC, and then 

from Kean University with a 

BS in 1994. In May 2001 she 

received her MPA in Health 

Services Administration 

from Kean. While working 

55 to 70 hours a week, she 

earned a 3.8 GPA and at 

graduation was inducted 

into the prestigious Pi Alpha 

Honor Society, based on her 

academics and public 

service. 

This resourceful 

achiever states that UCC is a 

great place to start higher 

education when you’re not 

sure what you want to do. 

All the premed and psychology 

courses proved helpful 

in her graduate program, 

and the liberal arts courses 

formed the backbone of her 

interests and talents. And 

she did end up in the health 

care field, as an Internal 

Auditor for The Solaris 

Health Care System, where 

she audits financial records, 

operations and government 

laws and regulations. Gina 

plans to pursue another 

degree in order to increase 

her effectiveness as a health 

care professional. 

Gina has served UCC 

for 10 years on the UCC 

Alumni Association Board, 

including leadership roles as 

Secretary, First Vice President, 

Chair of the Audit 

Committee, and, currently, 

Treasurer. She makes time 

for hobbies – collecting 

antiques, opera, ballet, 

reading, visiting historical 

landmarks, and horticulture. 

Gina lives in Roselle Park 

with her husband Sean 

Ryan, County Landscape 

Architect for Union County, 

who also has high praise for 

the cell biology and botany 

courses he took at UCC 

during summers while a 

Cook College, Rutgers 

student. 

Ever since high school, 

Gina has worked part-time 

for Pathmark Stores in a 

variety of roles. She says 

that this job paid for her 

education, and cites the 

benefits and pension as 

great incentives to continue. 

Her UCC art classes proved 

useful when she was 

designing displays for the 

stores. “Nothing learned is 

ever lost” certainly has been 

true for Gina! U 

YOU CAN’T WIN THEM ALL. But the biggest winners at the 

UCC Foundation’s 9 th annual Evening at the Races on June 20th 

were the students who will benefit from the $43,800 raised. 

Having a good time at Pegasus in Meadowlands were (l. to r.) 

Foundation trustee Dr. Richard Neblett and Chairman John 

Griffith, College President Dr. Thomas H. Brown, and Vice 

President for Academic Affairs Dr. Wallace Smith.

Bob Blyth, ’52 of Brigantine, NJ 

writes: “ I very vividly remember 

my days at Union Junior 

College…I was not a serious 

student and my best subject was 

table tennis, which I was quite 

good at. I do however remember 

a particular chemistry teacher, Mr. 

Robert Marshall, that I greatly 

admired, and even though my 

priority at that time was not 

education, he managed to get my 

attention and made chemistry 

interesting. After a tour in the 

army and a bit of maturing, I 

continued my education, 

majoring in chemistry, and went 

on to a successful career in 

research and development. 

Thank you, Mr. Marshall, 

wherever you are.”
