Millman Survives Skiing Accident, Continues Duties Despite Injuries ■ ACCIDENT by Adam Pava QC Editor-in-Chief Whittier College Provost and Dean of Faculty Richard Millman was involved in a skiing accident on Saturday, Dec. 20, causing a broken clavicle, fractured rib, nine stitches in his head and ear, a badly pulled quadricep, severe tendon damage around one knee and a bruised bone in the shoulder socket. Despite the injuries, he continued with his administrative duties for the College. "I came in a little last week, will come in every day this week for about half a day and will be back to normal the following week," Millman said. He asserted that the whole healing process will take a total of two or three months, but "by next week, nobodyrshould notice." By this time, he. expects to be completely back on schedule, aside from the possibility of missing some evening activities such as attending basketball games and theatrical events. Richard Millman. According to Dean of Students Susan Allen, Millman is taking a "hefty amount of painkillers," which might affect his concentration. . The accident occurred while Millman was on a six-day vacation in Colorado. The collision occured on the fourth day, and he was in two hospitals for a total of approximately six hours, but did not spend the night in the hospital. "I was going down an intermediate run and was well in control, skiing close to the trees—and something happened," Millman stated. "I have no idea what caused if, but I turned left into the trees. Per haps it was some bad snow, or someone cut me off (but I don't think so) or it was my native lack of coordination, but all of a sudden, I was heading into a tree close to 20 miles an hour." Millman's skis flew off and he collided with the tree with his head and shoulder before blacking out. When he came to, he put his skis back on and continued down the mountain until someone saw that he was covered in blood and alerted the First Aid staff. "My two-year-old grandson [Isaac Millman] looked at me with all my bandages on and said'ouch- ie,' which is probably a fairly good description of what I look like," Millman added. According to Assistant Professor of Speech Pathology Irene Carlyle, "the Dean has a hard head, and sometimes this actually comes in handy." Millman said that he is delighted to be alive and wants to thank all members of the Whittier College community who sent cards and well- wishes. He is confident that he will ski again. "You bet I will," he maintained. "Just probably not this season." K.W.T.FL is ready for broadcasting equipment. ,' TO_ toto-'■■•■■ " ', to to -to .;Ua6wftiw^tetW«teErarx K.W.T.R.
