Her monumental art work produced over some 20-plus years is an organic collage, multidimentional in both time and space: a dynamic work that, because of her adept hands, takes on a life of its own, as intended. It adorns no particular pediment nor does it stand in any hallway or hang on any wall. Yet, in scores of hearts, minds, and aspirations it is unmistakeably real - pentelic in its solidity and durability, one could say. The subject matter in this work of art is all of us past and present - faculty, students, parents, and those in the community who have been touched and shaped and molded by her: simultaneously, we occupy space as devoted observers and as dedicated, subject-participants.

As active participants in Greenhill's educational endeavors, this specialized faculty interacts across all grade levels and all disciplines.

In our innocence we left our modest and agora-focused homes to journey along a kind of Panathenaic Way. And as we followed her through the Propylaea all the way to Man with a Pipe our experience of the sublime and the beautiful ennobled us in a very extraordinary sense. And we love her for it. Our sensitivities concerning aesthetics - sharpened and illuminatedg our perception of human striving and the achievement of excellence - exercised and strengthenedg our appreciation for human creativity - an experience shared by many because we have known Muriel Seldin as friend, colleague, and teacher. Much love and many thanks. 22
