I have fond memories of Ken during my tenure as student body president at Carleton (1960-61). Ken was chairman of the development committee, and I had the privilege of meeting with him on several occasions to provide a student perspective on fund raising. What I most remember about Ken was his non-condescending attitude toward a 20 year-old. Great guy.
