A student representing Lansing Middle School recently won highest honors in this year's WordMasters Challenge-a national language arts competition entered by over 230,000 students annually, which consists of three separate meets held at intervals during the school year.
Competing in the difficult Blue Division of the Challenge, fifth grader William Lewis earned a perfect score in the year's third meet, held in April. In the entire country only 96 fifth graders achieved at this level. Other students who also achieved outstanding results included fifth graders Kathryn Miller and Thomas Galvin.

Saturday evening brought a sizable crowd to Lansingville, where Andra and Chuck Benson hosted a benefit for a fistula hospital in Ghana. Guests paid $50 per person to enjoy hors d'oevres and wine, live music, and a stunning view of Cayuga Lake and Lansing. "The hospital will be treating local women who suffer this kind of chronic incontinence as a result of childbirth," says local organizer Sally True. "They'll be treated there. It's a course of treatment that takes anywhere from ten days to four months."

Dear IMO,
I have just graduated from college with a degree in American History. Though I wish to continue my studies and eventually teach, I want to take a year off and find some work outside of what I have normally pursued. My parents are not happy with the idea, but are willing to let me explore for a year. I do not want to join the Peace Corps or AmeriCorps, but I want something that is both challenging and will give me some skills that I can use in life. Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Phil

 Aurora, New York—Wells College’s 140th Commencement exercises will take place at the Aurora Inn this Saturday, May 24, at 10:00 am. The College will confer degrees on 84 members of the Class of 2008, including nine from the Ithaca area.
The graduates and their guests will hear remarks from Wells trustee Gail Leftwich Kitch, executive director of MacNeil/Lehrer’s By The People. Ms. Kitch’s talk is entitled “What is Possible,” which she intends as a statement rather than a question.
