I am inspired by his memory, and on behalf of the entire university, express sympathy and gratitude to his wife, Grethe, and their family. Born in Logan, where his father was president of what is now Utah State University, Chase received both his bachelor's degree Sunday September 14 and M.D. from Harvard University. He then began private medical practice in Salt Lake City. He returned to Harvard to take up the post of dean of admissions and then vice president of alumni affairs and development. He returned to Utah in 1978 as the U's vice president of health sciences, and served in that role when University Hospital implanted the first artificial heart in Barney Clark. He became president of the university in 1983. Chase led this institution with optimism and joy, Monday Tuesday September 15 September 16 TODAY STOP FAKING YOUR LEARN TO BORROW WAY THROUGH (SO YOU DON'T PHOTOSHOP And learn how to actually use the thing, people.

Chase Peterson loved the University of Utah. His efforts to enhance the U's teaching and research mission will be his legacy, evident always in the careers and contributions of thousands of students whose lives were made better by his service.

BY MARY ROYAL /STAFF WRITER PHOTO COURTESY OF THE BENNION CENTER W hile many U students spend their fall and spring breaks going on vacation or catching up on sleep, students involved in the Alternative Breaks program through the Bennion Center spend their time giving back to the community. The Alternative Fall Break program, established 17 years ago, gives students at the U an opportunity to work with service organizations both in and outside of Utah and experience real issues they might not otherwise have the chance to experience. Many resources provided by the Bennion Center on alternative breaks come from the Center for Student Wellness. Kris Fenn, alternative break coordinator, said she thinks it is important for students to get involved in programs such as alternative breaks. "These trips are a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for student growth in multiple arenas" Fenn said. "Not only do students receive a significant amount of knowledge and education on the ' WOR_ III trip around the trip topic, students [also] report they are more likely to engage in community service in the future and come back with an increased appreciation for those with backgrounds or experiences different than their own" Fenn said the experiences students have and the bonds they form with each other during alternative break trips often go beyond the span of the trips themselves. Lacey Holmes, public relations coordinator for the Bennion Center, said the memories students make on these trips are long-term. "Break may last a week, but the memories last a lifetime',' Holmes said. "The trips bring together a group of students who normally would not meet and allow them to form lasting bonds of friendship that they will take with them long after the trip is over" There are seven upcoming trips planned for this fall break. These include homelessness, and hunger and food justice, both in Seattle, Wash.; community health in Vancouver, British Columbia; marine conservation in Santa Cruz, Calif.; identity and environmental exploration in the San Rafael Swell; urban environmentalism in Portland, Ore.; and youth empowerment and education in Albuquerque, N.M. Two spots remain for the youth empowerment and education trip in Albuquerque. This trip will allow volunteers to mentor youth on their path to higher education, engage in leadership building activities and share personal experiences of success in college. Last-minute registration for the trip closes this Friday. While most trips being offered for fall break have reached capacity, students can start applying for a trip with the Alternative Spring Break program this Saturday, Sept. 20. Applications and more information for spring break trips can be found on the Bennion Center's website. m.royal@chronicle.utah.edu @mary royal 3 |
