Hugh Carr [1913-2007]
Hugh Carr was a business owner in the automotive industry in western New York and first heard of Cedarville College through the ministry of Dr. James T. Jeremiah and Hugh’s son Roy who attended Cedarville from 1956 to 1960. On one occasion in 1957 when the Cedarville College choir was on tour in New York, the bus broke down near the hometown of the Carr’s. Hugh Carr was summoned to help and, along with the bus driver, “Pop” Marshall, they were able to repair the bus and get the choir on its way. Marshall then invited Carr to join the maintenance crew at Cedarville, and after that, Dr. Jeremiah would occasionally ask him as well. Hugh Carr and his wife June finally made the decision to move to Cedarville in 1968 and join the staff. Carr was also involved in several building projects on campus including the first Science Center in 1972, and the original Marshall and Carr dormitories in 1974. Hugh Carr’s grandson, David Carr, currently serves on the Cedarville University Board of Trustees. Carr Hall, now part of “The Hill” dormitory complex, was named for Hugh in 1974.

A Depraved Mind
A Depraved Mind
Ian Bilger
Digital Collage
10”x10”
2024
“A Depraved Mind” is a chaotic collage of personally captured photos that combine to embody a sense of corruption and apprehension of the mind. The piece displays hints of an assimilation of eve shown fallen to the ground and a setting consisting of flames and a threatening color palette. The composition emphasizes the center, the fallen figure, and the flames that entrap it. Your eyes are centered in the middle of the piece and as they travel outwards you see a distant colorless reflection of the piece bordering itself. A Depraved Mind challenges its observers to see a life without guidance, a life without God. A mind that is left to its own discretion will only rot in its inevitable turmoil. The piece is a challenge to hold fast to what is true and a warning for what is to come if you don’t

The intention of the piece is to provoke the viewer to see organic forms in structure and rhythm within order
Sliding through History: The Development and Great Improvisers of the Jazz Trombone
The trombone has come to be known as a great jazz instrument and has developed greatly since the late nineteenth century. The rise and development of the jazz trombone has been primarily influenced by well-known jazz trombonists who each had unique stylistic choices and tones. These musicians, such as J. J. Johnson, Miff Mole, and Frank Rosolino, all had influenced future jazz trombonists to come. Each preceding musician would incorporate a unique style, tone, or mute which would influence the playing of successive trombonists, especially in improvisation. Furthermore, these well-known jazz trombonists were catalysts in the development of the trombone in jazz settings. This presentation will discuss many famous jazz trombonists as well as their contributions to the development of the jazz trombone. In examining their contributions, I will also be explaining how they influenced the later jazz trombonists that proceeded them. My methods of research will include analysis novels and articles that concern the trombonists of several jazz eras such as the Bebop, Swing, and Dixieland eras. In the presentation, I will also analyze the improvisational solos of some of the most famous jazz trombonists in order to display their unique styles and how they had each influenced each other; I will use resources such as transcriptions and audio recordings for this analysis

Donald W. Rickard [1936-2015]
Don Rickard came to Cedarville in 1970 to serve as Dean of Students and, under his leadership, the Division of Student Services expanded to include Career Services, Counseling Services, and Campus Activities. As the division grew, Rickard’s role was elevated to Vice President of Student Services. Under his leadership, the division became a significant force in meeting students’ social needs on campus. Rickard was a student at Cedarville in the 1950’s but transferred to nearby Central State University to earn his BA degree in psychology in 1963 and an MA degree from Eastern Michigan University in 1968. In his early years as dean at Cedarville, he increased the division’s interaction with students through a course he taught, serving as the advisor for the Student Government Association, and participating in student events. Though his position grew to become more administrative as a vice president, he always continued to focus on supporting the goals of the university by helping students to grow in personal and spiritual maturity through love and discipline. The theme verse for the division was “By love, serve one another,” (Galatians 5:13). Upon his retirement in 2000, he continued to represent the university in churches and schools across the country. Rickard Hall was named in his honor in 2002.
