The summer issue of The Hill magazine is just in time to go with you to the beach — or the pool or the mountains. Check out the winning poem from our Haiku contest. Sink into the tale of a good luck charm that connected a Mongolian girl with her American dream. And enjoy a sneak preview of the big new book about the College’s history by Jim Lightner ’59.

Copies will land in mailboxes within the next week or so. Don’t forget to participate in our new Letters to the Editor section. Tell us what you think about what you read in the magazine — we can take it! Write to kasch@hughes.net or Kim Asch, Managing Editor, The Hill magazine, McDaniel College, 2 College Hill, Westminster, MD 21157.
