It is with great sadness that the Center for English as a Second Language (CESL) at the University of Arizona informs our friends, colleagues, students, and alumni of the passing of our assistant director, Wendy Whitacre, this past week. Wendy was an outstanding colleague and professional, who was a teacher and leader for many. Wendy led a richly diverse and creative life, teaching here and abroad, leading our faculty, performing and producing drama, and simply bringing joy to many. Most of all, Wendy was a dedicated mother who loved her son Taylor and taught us all the value of life. Services are pending news from her family. We will post news via http://www.cesl.arizona.edu/. We invite you to post your thoughts and prayers.
Update
You can find a movie made by the 2006 CESL Drama club, directed by Wendy (and starring other CESL teachers) here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jaLuTFbXIJ0).
