It is tempting to offer a list of facts and figures, awards and degrees, membership cards and publications, and say, These achievements, these are the legacy of Michael DeAngelis. For one thing, it is easy. It also seems to capsulize the individual. But Mike DeAngelis, more than most men, cannot be summed up by cataloguin g details. Such a description isolates the man from his world and Mike DeAngelis was anything but isolated. In fact, relationships are the best way to describe Mike DeAngelis. For family and friends, DeAngelis always found time. His dedication to his job and the college, colleagues maintain, was unfailing. Yet, perhaps the most remarkable aspect of DeAngelis was his relationship with his students. Chairman of the Accounting Department, Joseph Markmann remarked, Mike helped place hundreds of students in jobs through the years — and not just those with the high Q.P.A.s, but anyone he could help, because he is for you, not just as a student, but as a person. This ability to deal with students as individuals — to go beyond the boundaries and conventions of the classroom — was the real art of Michael DeAngelis. The ultimate value of accounting, DeAngelis saw, lay not in the beauty of its internal consistency, but in its usefulness. Accounting, he believed, is a purpose- ful art, a means. These two pages pay tribute explicity to Michael DeAngelis, but DeAngelis ' death on March 25, 1981, has implicitly affected all of Explorer 1982. Our theme, art, might have degenerated into a collection of trivial artifacts disassociated from reality, but the tragedy of Michael DeAngelis reveals the hollowness of such flights of fancy. Art should not be con- cerned only with itself. A vital bond links an artist to his audience or a teacher to his students. Michael DeAngelis understood this relationship and fostered it inside and outside of the classroom. We hope the personal artistry of Michael DeAngelis — the art of relationships — leaves a subtle imprint on every page of Explorer 1982 as it has on so many lives. TR
