President Steven G. Poskanzer is the subject of a Chronicle of Higher Education feature on Nov. 28 about his interactions with students around the Carleton tradition of the bust of German poet Friedrich Schiller. The bust, which has been making appearances at important Carleton events for nearly 60 years and is guarded by a secret group of students, was given to the new Carleton president, and Poskanzer took a series of photos of him with Schiller that ran in the campus literary magazine The Carl and appeared on Carleton’s Facebook page. “It was important for me, as a brand new president,” he says of the shenanigans, “to show that I was an accessible, approachable person.” (Please note the link will only be available to non-subscribers until Dec. 3.)
