Glass Walls: Realty & Hope Beyond the Glass Ceiling
by Jean Cross Rostollan '73 and Rhonda Levene

2006. The authors write: Glass Walls began as an examination and reflection on our combined 50 year careers in corporate America. Through countless interviews with women and men, from a multitude of professions and industries, we begin to develop a better understanding of the dynamics within organizations. We gained poignant insights from real experiences of women as they progressed beyond the Glass Ceiling. Glass Walls became symbolic of the invisible barrier that surrounds the inner sanctum of empowered males and their chosen associates who typically dominate corporations. It is this Glass Wall that contributes to the isolation and marginalization women encounter in the workplace. It is our belief that a better understanding of the Glass Wall barrier can be a starting point for women trying to navigate obstacles and seek opportunities within their respective companies.

Chief Bender's Burden: The Silent Struggle of a Baseball Star
by Tom Swift '95

"Signal thanks to journalist Swift for this authoritative biography of Charles Albert Bender, the early 20th-century pitcher who managed to shine in both the big leagues and in life while confronting poverty and racism. Swift sets aside the myths about this most famous American Indian player while vividly describing him in the context of the famed Carlisle Indian School, baseball's Golden Age, Connie Mack and his Athletics, and the effects of gambling and alcoholism on sports. For all interested in the First Nations, quite apart from baseball."
