Ralph Levine, \u2762 (BardCorps)
No full textRalph Levine came to Bard from the Bronx High School of Science. At the time, students were only allowed to apply to three colleges; Bard was his safety school. In applying for a scholarship, Levine traveled to Bard for the first time, and recalls assisting Richard Gummere in searching for his own watch-pin during the interview. Levine\u27s intention had been to enroll in the 3-2 Program with Columbia, but dropped this plan when he changed his major from physics to mathematics. [He later earned an M.A.T. and D.Ed. from Harvard University.] The mathematics department at Bard afforded Levine an opportunity to take many electives in music and literature, and he enjoyed working on the school newspaper, the Bard Observer. He took organ with Clair LeonardHe was elected to the Community Council as a Junior and became Chairman as a Senior. Levine remembers tensions between President James Case and the faculty that resulted in a vote of no confidence by the faculty, followed by President Case\u27s decision to resign. At the Board of Trustees\u27 decision to hire Reamer Kline, an Episcopal minister, as Bard\u27s new president, Levine recalls the general concern that the secular nature of the college was \u27not assured.\u27 Levine selected a committee to investigate a scholarship fund set up under President Kline specifically for Episcopalian students. Their findings led to a meeting in New York with the Board of Trustees to discuss the situation and Bard\u27s future. Levine eventually felt that President Kline was very good for the college, and cherishes an inscribed copy of President Kline\u27s history of the college, \u27Education for the Common Good.\u27 Now an administrator at Stanford University he summarized: Comparing Stanford with Bard, I\u27d say that the Bard\u27s women\u27s basketball team is never going to make the Final Four, but in terms of a liberal education I\u27d say that the schools are quite comparable. They are both excellent places for a liberal arts education.https://digitalcommons.bard.edu/oral_hist/1003/thumbnail.jp

Philip Levine, 14th Annual ODU Literary Festival
No full textPhilip Levine\u27s fourteenth book of poetry, What Work Is, was published this spring. Perhaps the title of this most recent collection summarizes much of what is central to his remarkable poetry. Most of his work concentrates on the working class, particularly those auto workers in Detroit with whom he is so familiar. His poetry has been a search to find a voice for the voiceless. As he explained in Detroit Magazine, In terms of the literature of the United States they weren\u27t being heard. Nobody was speaking for them. And as young people will, you know, I took this foolish vow that I would speak for them and that\u27s what my life would be. And sure enough I\u27ve gone and done it. Or I\u27ve tried anyway...I just hope I have the strength to carry it all the way through.
Levine has won an assortment of awards, from a Notable Book Award given by the Library Association to the National Book Critics Award. He has read poetry at the Library of Congress, been an adviser to the Academy of American Poets, and has been named an outstanding lecturer by California State University.
According to the New York Times, Levine has become the elegist of lost souls beaten down by forces they could not understand or control. Joyce Carol Oates said in American Poetry Review, He is one of those poets whose work is so emotionally intense, and yet so controlled, so concentrated, that the accumulative effect of reading a number of his related poems can be shattering
