During February, Dean of Libraries Suzanne Thorin invited alumni and friends to events in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Seattle, to learn about the Library and have some “hands-on” fun with fascinating treasures from its collections, including a 15th Century illuminated manuscript, a 1915 cylindrical audio recording, and a handwritten first draft of a short story by Stephen Crane (Class of 1893). In this picture, taken at the Seattle gathering on February 19, guests are shown holding pages of a 1964 letter written in Mecca by Malcolm X to Roots author Alex Haley. Many of the rare items were donated. “Everyone can help the Library educate SU students by donating time, money, or research materials,” said Dean Thorin. More Library presentations are planned. |

Alice Sterling Honig, professor emerita of child development in the College of Human Ecology at Syracuse University and one of the leading researchers and sought-after experts in the field of child development, presented “Keys to Quality Infant/Toddler Care” at the Jack Reilly Distinguished Lecture on April 28 at the Century Plaza Hyatt Regency, Los Angeles. Honig was joined by presenters Bruce Carter, associate professor in SU’s Departments of Child and Family Studies and Psychology, and Leila Beckwith, professor emerita of pediatrics at UCLA. Also in attendance was Diane Lyden Murphy, dean of the College of Human Ecology at Syracuse University.
Honig has done extensive research and written books and articles on infants and toddlers, language development, child-care practices, preschooler social development, fathering and the effects of divorce on children. She teaches workshops for caregivers of infants and toddlers, and she has lectured widely. Honig is a licensed psychologist and a fellow of both the American Psychological Association and the Society for Research in Child Development.
The Jack Reilly Distinguished Lecture Series in Infant & Toddler Caregiving was launched in 2007 thanks to the generous support of SU alumnus John D. Reilly III ’69, G’70 and his wife, Patricia M. Reilly. The Jack Reilly Distinguished Lecture Series is part of the Jack Reilly Institute for Early Childhood and Provider Education, which the Reillys have established at Syracuse University in perpetuity in honor of their son Jack (John D. Reilly IV). A tragic fire at a licensed day-care facility in California in 1989 took the life of 13-month-old Jack. Bringing together child development experts and students, as well as infant and toddler caregivers and prospective caregivers, these lectures take place annually in Syracuse, N.Y.
