                                  Dr. Krakower was formerly Professor and Chairman of the Department of Physical and Health Education of the City College of New York and currently resides in Florida. He sends his best wishes and is sorry he can’t travel to be with us for this presentation. Many of us were privileged to know Dr. Brown as an outstanding educator known across the country and in other nations as a progressive and creative leader in Physical Education. Many of you know her only as a portrait and as a special room for your study and quiet social use. It is fitting that this Senior Medal in her name be awarded for professional excellence.<\/p>\n
