Stoneburner honored
with excellence award
JOE BAGBY

On Friday, March 7, the
Greensboro Commission on the
Status of Women honored eight
local women. These women won
the Woman of Achievement
Award, given to an outstanding
woman in the fields of business,
health, media, government service,
education, religion, community
service and the arts.
Who won the award for excel
lence in education? Guilford
College's own Carol Stoneburner.
Serving in two administrative
capacities—the Director of Fac
ulty Development and Coordina
tor of Women's Studies —
Stoneburger also teaches. While
most classes are taught by one pro
fessor, Stoneburner teaches her
Women's Studies class with her
husband, John. The two have
taught together for 15 years and
have been noted for their excellent
collaboration.
Forty-nine women were nomi
nated for the eight awards, so
Stoneburner, who has been teach
ing at Guilford for 25 years, was
in a competitive race. Maritza
Almeida, professor of Spanish,
nominated her. A number of other
Guilford faculty members wrote
recommendations for her, and on
March 7th, before a crowd of 150,
Stoneburner received the award,
an eight-inch pewter-engraved
plate.
College-age Quakers to
gather for weekend at GC

North Carolina Yearly Meeting
and Guilford College will host a
gathering for college-age Quakers.
This conference will happen on
March 21st, 22nd, and 23rd.
The hope is to get students from
all over to bond with other Quak
ers from other campuses. North
Carolina Yearly Meeting and Guil
ford College have advertised as a
Quaker web of students from
UNC-G, Western Carolina, Salem,
NC A&T, Guilford, ECU, HPU,
UNC-C, Catawba, Elon, and many
more colleges.
With students from a wide va
riety of schools invited, the con
ference attenders should provide a
very diverse group of Quakers.
March 21,1997
"Carol Stoneburner is a remarkable woman. She is a men
tor, a mediator, a teacher, a friend, a companion, and an inde
fatigable worker. . .As coordinator of Women's Studies, Carol
has been a force that made the women's studies major a dream
come true. . . In addition to the major, Carol has been instru
mental in helping educate men and women about sexual of
fenders and has given support and help to any victims in this
category. Students seek out Carol as a mediator, a teacher, a
mentor, a confidant, a friend... It is with great pride that we
nominate Carol Stoneburner for the 1996 Woman of Achieve
ment Award."
- from Maritza Almeida's Woman of Achievement award
nomination for Carol Stoneburner
Maritza Almeida says of
Stoneburner, "She has been a back
bone of the Women's Studies pro
gram " Almeida had nothing but
praise for the award-winner, re
marking, "Carol had worked with
Faculty Development. She spon
sors many programs that have
helped the faculty. She works with
the junior faculty. She helps make
their transition to Guilford
smoother. She establishes a group
of support. Carol really makes the
faculty feel welcome at Guilford."
Other faculty members strongly
supported Stoneburner's nomina
tion, as well. According to
Almeida, " I asked several faculty
members here to write in on her
behalf, and they wrote in immedi
ately. You could see the tremen
dous respect the faculty felt for
her."
Hanna Passmore co-clerk of
Quaker concerns said, "I can't wait
to meet Quaker students from
oilier schools." Lisa Lundeen con
tinued, "The diverse group is im
portant for getting a wider variety
of opinions. Quaker Leadership
Scholars has gotten in a habit of
talking about the same thing all the
time."
Max Carter says, "This confer
ence is exciting because it is the
first time that North Carolina
yearly meeting and Guilford Col
lege have worked together to cre
ate this kind of a conference."
The conference will focus on
"Building Spiritual Community."
The weekend will feature topical
discussion groups, worship-shar
ing, service projects, a concert, and
opportunities for informal gather
A few Guilford alumni also
wrote in, greatly strengthening the
nomination.
"I was particularly honored by
the number of Guilford people
who invested their time, and I feel
very supported by my colleagues,"
reflected Stoneburner. "This is a
great job, very exciting, and it was
nice to be honored."

that Carol Stoneburner merited
recognition for these things, and so

ing and relaxation.
The students who attend will
work together in many different
ways. They will be doing small
group work as well as large group
work. The big day is Saturday,
when all students will expected to
participate in a work project.
Two special guests will help in
making this an exciting weekend.
The first is Bruce Bishop, Young
Adult Friends director Of North
west Yearly Meeting, who will be
a resource leader for the weekend.
On Saturday night, the group
will also get a chance to hear the
music group 'The Kry" perform.
"The Kry" is a group of Christian
music artists invited to share their
religious music with these college
students.
