Interview with Dr. Rita Bornstein: Thirteenth President of Rollins College
Get PDFAs the College\u27s thirteenth president and the first woman to hold that title, Rita Bornstein came to Rollins College in 1990. For the next fourteen years, President Bornstein was also an author, teacher, and well-accomplished fundraiser.
A native of New York, Bornstein pursued her higher education in the south. After receiving both a B.A. and an M.A. in English Literature from Florida Atlantic University, she attended the University of Miami where she earned her Ph.D. in Education Leadership and Instruction in 1975. She taught high school English for a time, directed the U.S. Office of Education Technical Assistance Center at the University of Miami, and eventually became the university\u27s vice president for development.
During her time as president, Rollins\u27 ranking in U.S. News & World Report\u27s America\u27s Best Colleges climbed from number six regionally to number two, and the College became number one in Florida. Bornstein focused on boosting the College\u27s endowment, which increased four fold during her presidency, and creating additional endowed professors\u27 chairs. She also oversaw The Campaign For Rollins, which succeeded in bringing $160.2 million to the College. In addition, Bornstein led the College in a much needed building project that expanded existing structures, added the McKean Gateway to the campus, and constructed the Cornell Campus Center, among other buildings.
Bornstein\u27s commitment to making Rollins an integral part of the Winter Park community was reflected in emphasis on service and in the many distinctions awarded to both her and the institution. In recognition of Rollins\u27 contribution of two Habitat for Humanity houses, the College was awarded the Tenth Annual Citizen of the Year Award by the Winter Park Chamber of Commerce in 1994. Ten years later, the chamber named her Citizen of the Decade. Bornstein\u27s other honors include: the first Council for Advancement and Support of Education District II Chief Executive Leadership Award, the Laureate for Lifetime Achievement in Fundraising, and the Summit Award.
While Bornstein is well known as a gifted administrator, she is also an academic in her own right. Her works include over one hundred presentations and papers including the well-received Rollins Colloquy Toward a Pragmatic Liberal Education: The Curriculum of the Twenty-First Century. Bornstein has written, edited and contributed to books such as: Education and Democracy: Re-imagining Liberal Learning and Legitimacy in the Academic Presidency: From Entrance to Exit. In addition, she enjoys hiking and canoeing when her schedule allows time.

Jeannette Bercovickova Bornstein Oral History Interview
No full textOral history interview with Holocaust survivor Jeannette Bercovickova Bornstein. Bornstein was born in Antwerp in 1935 to Czech Jews who had relocated to France and then to Belgium. Shortly after Belgium was invaded in 1940, the family fled to Toulouse, France, where they were hidden with a gentile family. They were caught by the Gestapo and separated. Bornstein, her mother and sister went to Rivesaltes concentration camp, while her father was taken elsewhere. They were in Rivesaltes for nine months before her mother made arrangements with partisan couriers to take the children and hide them in Vence. The family was briefly reunited in Vence, but shortly afterwards her father died. The couriers took Bornstein and her sister over the border into Spain, where their aunt and uncle had escaped, and in 1944 the children were brought to the United States to live with a foster family. In 1949 they were reunited with their mother, which was a difficult transition for Bornstein. In this interview she discusses her journey through France and Spain and the psychological effects caused by her childhood experiences
