Id innerwi ththc roses} (continued from p.23) how the Bachelor was related to Mrs. Rose, then to the time the Roses met Prince Charles. Nights such as this were a common occurrence in the home of our school president and first lady. The Roses hosted an average of three to four dinners per week for students, faculty, staff, and alumni. Parents Weekend, Homecoming, and the beginning and end of the year were especially busy. When asked if they partook in such fine dining every night of the week, Dr. Rose replied with a laugh, No, we certainly enjoy the regular hotdogs and pizza too! The preparation that went into a dinner with the Roses was handled by Mrs. Rose and dining services. Invitations were sent, flowers and decorations were ordered and the menu was prepared. Students employed by dining services served as hosts for the evening. The dinners allowed the Roses to gain students ' perspective of the university for an evening. They discussed problems with registration, nonexistent parking on campus, why freshmen were not allowed to have vehicles, and of course, the unpopular rule against ' double-punching ' on weekends. Rose took some of the students ' concerns to his administration to be reviewed and discussed. In discussing problems that had already been tackled by administration, such as double punching on the weekends, Rose took the opportunity to share his perspective with students. Most students will go to a college or university and never even know their president ' s name, much less get to know him or her. Rose wanted to create an open and friendly environment at the university. He believed that by hosting intimate dinners with students, he could accomplish that. It ' s nice to have a dinner out of the structure of an organization, but a casual dinner gives us the opportunity to be more personal, he explained. With conversation that ranged from classes to The Bachelor, Dr. and Mrs. Rose entertains her guests. The bachelor from ABC ' s The Bachelor was a relative of Mrs. Rose. ■ Photo by Jenny Brockwell 24 features
