New Men's Tennis Coach Hired... Tommy Valentini, a native of Duluth, Minn. has been named the head men’s tennis coach at Gustavus. Valentini, who has been an assistant coach for the Gusties for the past three years, will replace Steve Wilkinson, who is retiring after serving as the head coach for the past 39 years.
A 2002 Gustavus graduate and four-year letterwinner on the tennis team who received the Arthur Ashe Award for excellence in tennis, academics, and humanitarian concerns from both the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA), and the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (MIAC) in 2001, Valentini is finishing his doctoral studies in kinesiology at the University of Minnesota, where he is currently a graduate teaching assistant and primary instructor of history and philosophy of sport. In addition to his coaching responsibilities at Gustavus, Valentini will also be an instructor in the health and exercise science department, teaching a class in sport ethics.
After completing his master’s work at Emory University in 2006, Valentini returned to Minnesota to pursue his doctoral studies and at the same time became the part-time assistant coach at Gustavus with his mentor, Wilkinson. He now becomes the 16th head coach in the 83-year history of the men’s tennis program at Gustavus. The Gustie program is the third winningest program in the history of Division III tennis with an all-time mark of 1048-424-3 (.711 winning percentage) and has claimed two NCAA team championships (1980, 1982) while also winning six national titles in doubles and four national titles in singles.

Adult tickets are $7, with student and senior citizen tickets at $5 and Gustavus students and staff admitted free of charge. The play, directed by Henry MacCarthy (theatre & dance), follows the antics of a group of self-absorbed musicians, players, agents, and benefactors, parodying opera and theater life in Venice in the mid-18th century. The script is a version specially adapted by MacCarthy.
Honors Day... The College Archives has been able to date the first Honors Day at Gustavus to May 26, 1947. What is thus the College's 63rd annual celebration of student honors and academic achievement will take place on Saturday, May 2, 2009, with a convocation in Christ Chapel beginning at 10:30 a.m. New members of Phi Beta Kappa and the guilds of St. Ansgar and St. Lucia and departmental and College-wide award winners will be recognized, and the recipients of the Swenson and Bunn Memorial Award for Teaching Excellence, the Faculty Scholarly Achievement Award, and the Dr. Theodore E. Conrad Faculty/Staff Achievement Award will be announced. All are invited to attend. (Two minor schedule changes from what you may have seen posted: The reception for the senior studio art majors' exhibition in the Hillstrom Museum of Art will run from 4 to 6 p.m., not 4-7, and the symphony orchestra concert in Christ Chapel will begin at 7 p.m. rather than 7:30 to accommodate those also wishing to attend the theatre production.)
Wind Orchestra Concert Features Premiere and Guest Conductor... The Gustavus Wind Orchestra, led this spring by interim conductor James Patrick Miller, performs its final concert of the 2008-09 academic year on Saturday, May 2, at 3:30 p.m. in Christ Chapel. The concert features the premiere performance of This Dark World, composed by Gustavus junior David Mann, and guest conductor Timothy Mahr leading a performance of his 2007 composition, Imagine, If You Will.
Interim conductor James Patrick Miller has programmed this concert to demonstrate the variety of works written or transcribed for wind orchestra, including works by Pavel Tschesnokoff, Benjamin Britten, Charles Ives, and Percy Grainger as well as another composition by Mahr, who has been conductor of the St. Olaf Band since 1994. The concert is open to the public without charge.
'East Meets West' Concert... At 7 p.m. on Saturday, May 2, in Christ Chapel, the Gustavus Symphony Orchestra presents "East Meets West," a concert programmed to complement the College's Global Insight focus on China during the 2008-09 academic year. This Honors Day performance includes appearances by guest soloists (and Gustavus graduates) Anders Eckman, tenor, and Colin McGuire, violin. The concert runs for one hour and is open to the public at no charge.
Conductor Warren Friesen, who has led the Gustavus Symphony Orchestra since 2000, has twice led the orchestra on international concert tours in the Peoples Republic of China. Those experiences, and Gustavus's Global Insight Program on China, have led to the works programmed for this concert. The performance opens with Tchaikovsky's "Chinese Dancers" from The Nutcracker and Charles Tomlinson Griffes's The Pleasure Dome of Kubla Khan. The program continues with Lu Qi-ming's Ode to the Red Flag, followed by Maurice Ravel's "Empress of the Pagodas" from the Mother Goose Suite. Violinist Colin McGuire '06 then takes the stage to perform two works, "Yang Ko" and "Lion Dance" from Chen Yi's Chinese Folk Dance Suite. Saturday's program closes with tenor soloist Anders Eckman '06 joining the orchestra for the "Drinking Song of Earth's Sorrow" from Song of the Earth by Gustav Mahler.
