"Bob Albertson, who was the staff member 'in charge' of the CBC campus. All around neat guy, good sense of humor, took CBC residents on a pre-Christmas trip to Victoria BC, where we slept in a church basement.
The head cook at CBC (name escapes me). She would make omelets to order in the mornings if you walked in and asked for one, and if you let her know there was something you'd really like for dinner, it would often show up on the menu in the next couple of weeks." - Robin Sweeney '71

"Dr. Wagner - encouraged me, spoke to me honestly, professional without being distant." -Debra Griggs '71
