“Jim received various degrees over the years—fields of study he felt would serve him simply as a citizen, not just to find a job,” said Jennifer Bosveld, his wife and co-publisher of Pudding Magazine , a well-known literary journal.
Bosveld helped support the huge growth of Pudding House Publications—the largest literary small press in America. He died of kidney cancer in 2004. He was 56 years old.

Heitt Honored Posthumously with Spirit Award
Kristi Heitt was a special student. Her advisor, Professor Vilia Tarvydas , remembers her as a voracious reader with a “thirst for learning.”
“She was a scholar—not satisfied with easy answers and willing to do hard work,” Tarvydas said. “She was an independent thinker, a thrill to work with, and a lively person.”
Heitt was also courageous. While maintaining a reputation as a top student in the Rehabilitation Counseling master’s program, she was also battling cancer. She passed away Jan. 31, 2007, at the age of 55, before completing her degree.
Alanna Boyd remembers Heitt as an inspiring and dedicated classmate. Heitt even attended class two days before her death.
“I don’t think she would have rather been any place else,” Boyd said. “She had an enthusiasm for learning that was contagious. I think all of us kind of caught it from her.”
Because of that unfaltering dedication, Heitt’s classmates in the UI-American Rehabilitation Counseling Association student group recently dedicated an award in her memory.
“Kristi embodied the message we were trying to get across with the Spirit Award,” Boyd said. “We would so much rather have given it to her while she was alive, but it’s good we could dedicate this award to her so other people may have a chance to learn a little about her.”

John O. "Jack" Crites
John. O. “Jack” Crites |
Counselor Education Professor John. O. “Jack” Crites , 78, passed away on March 15, 2007.
Crites worked at The University of Iowa from 1958, serving as director of University Counseling Service from 1965-67, until 1971 when he left to join the University of Maryland faculty.
Among Crites’ many works, two he achieved while at Iowa stand out: 1) an encyclopedic textbook titled Vocational Psychology: The Study of Vocational Behavior and Development and 2) a paper-and-pencil inventory of attitudes and competencies titled the Career Maturity Inventory (CMI).
“I admired—nay, was in awe of—his scholarship in career development,” said Professor Emeritus David A. Jepsen, a specialty area in which he worked for the rest of his career. “The textbook served me as the major resource for constructing research problems and presenting coherent instructional materials. The CMI was easily the most frequently used measure of adolescent/young adult vocational behavior in education and psychology during the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s.”
The fields of career development and vocational psychology are indebted to Crites’ scholarly labors and products during his tenure at The University of Iowa.

Archie McKinnon
Archie McKinnon |
Special Education Associate Professor Emeritus Archie McKinnon , 87, passed away August 11, 2007. Remembered as quiet, fair, and kind, McKinnon was a faculty member from 1969 until his retirement in 1985. He served as chair of the Division of Special Education from 1972 to 1975 and specialized in behavioral disorders.
“He was careful, respectful, and you just enjoyed having him as a colleague,” Associate Professor Kit Gerken said.
Professor Paul Retish remembers him as someone students enjoyed working with.
“Archie was one of the most laid back, easy going people you would ever meet in your life,” Retish said. “He had a way about him that made people comfortable. He just oozed niceness.”
In addition to his work at the UI, McKinnon served as a U.S. Army Sergeant and worked as a clinical psychologist. |
