Jean Hales Andersen, AB 鈥49, came to OHIO for a music degree. She soon found herself with an important job: to climb the tower in Cutler Hall and play 鈥淎lma Mater, Ohio鈥 on its chimes via a keyboard-type instrument, fulfilling the sonic landscape on the Athens Campus. 鈥淚 wanted to be an educated person. I wanted to know lots of things. And [OHIO] was the place where you went to get that,鈥 she says.
