Dale has held key posts helping train the officer corps in the U.S. military and several developing nations. During his 48-year career with the U.S. Army and U.S. Army Reserve, Litney supervised numerous programs for military officers' education, evaluation, and development.
Bob Long ’68 spent 40 years teaching mathematics because he believes educational opportunities are one of the best ways to make the world a better place. He participates in a wide variety of programs to improve the lives of others. Long volunteers with the AARP Foundation assisting over 200 elderly and lower-income clients with the preparation of their tax returns. He volunteers with his local golf club, where he helped raise over $50,000 for the club’s scholarship fund. His philanthropic support also included a museum in Iowa whose vegetable stand found itself without a venue for sales during the pandemic. Long purchased $100 of the Iowa corn and had the museum donate it to the local food bank. His generosity caught on and generated an additional $1,000 to support the museum, while also helping needy families.
Nancy Rabenstein Pielemeier ’67 joined the Peace Corps after graduation. She earned a master’s and a doctorate of public health from the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health and worked as a U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) contractor while completing her dissertation. Pielemeier worked abroad in many capacities for USAID and later directed global health programs with Abt Associates, a social policy research and consulting firm. Through her work, Pielemeier has contributed to the increased understanding of health systems in countries in transition.
