Apple Podcast on Amazon Smart Speaker: https://apps.apple.com/us/story/id1491094491. On Ask Win today (Tuesday, December 17, 2019), Best-Selling Author, Win C welcomes Bill Courtney. William B Courtney (Bill), a native Memphian, is married to Lisa, his wife of 27 years, and father to four children; Maggie, 23; Molly, 22; Will, 21; and Max, 20. In 1991, Bill graduated from the University of Mississippi with a degree in Psychology. While at Ole Miss, he served as the Lieutenant Commander of Sigma Nu and was active in Psi Chi and Sigma Tau Delta. He was a featured columnist for the Daily Mississippian and the recipient of the first annual Chi Omega service award for Outstanding Community Involvement. Additionally, he was one of the founders of the Sigma Nu Charity Bowl which has now grown to be the largest Greek philanthropy project in the US. In 2001, Bill founded Classic American Hardwoods, Inc. Today, this 2001 startup company has grown to employ 120 people with a 45 acre manufacturing facility and domestic sales offices in Memphis, TN and international sales offices in Shanghai, China and Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam boasting in excess of $45 million in annual sales. In 2007, Classic American Hardwoods, Inc. won the Memphis Business Journal’s Small Business of the Year Award based on its growth and commitment to community service. In 2003, Bill followed CAH employee and fraternity brother Jim Tipton to volunteer at Memphis’ inner city Manassas High School in an effort to turn its underperforming football team around. In 2003, the team consisted of 19 players and the team’s overall previous 10 year’s record was a dismal 4-95. In the 2008 and 2009 seasons, the team’s record improved to 18-2, it boasted 75 players, and helped to bring hope to countless underprivileged, inner city youth. The story was so compelling that a Hollywood film was produced about it that won the 2012 Academy Award for Best Feature Length Documentary. In 2011, Bill was inducted into Bridge Builders for leadership in diversity, community, and justice. He was the 2012 recipient of the Liberty Bowl’s Harry Zinn Spirit of 1776 award for distinguished citizenship, recipient of the Carnival Memphis’ King’s award for outstanding achievement in Business and Industry, and the National Football Foundation and College Hall of fame Memphis chapter’s award winner for The distinguished American for Contribution to Amateur Athletics.

In 2018, Classic American Hardwoods was noted as one of the 100 largest privately held companies in West Tennessee. Also, in 2018, Classic American Hardwoods was recognized by The United States Export-Import Bank as the United States of America’s Exporter of the year. Today, Bill still operates as the President and CEO of Classic American Hardwoods overseeing its day to day operations. He is a nationally recognized and sought-after speaker keynoting at a variety of venues from the Para Olympics in Colorado Springs to Nike, Frito Lay, FedEx, and other nationally recognized companies. Additionally, he routinely serves as the commencement speaker to graduation ceremonies and keynoting nonprofit organizations such as St Jude Children’s Research Hospital and the Barrett School of Banking. He released his first book in 2014, Against the Grain, which has received national recognition as a best-selling manifesto covering leadership, service, character and other tenets that build the foundation for a meaningful personal, societal and professional life.

Tonight, live from the campus of Lake Erie College via Podbean.com, we will be sharing several of the campus ghost stories. We will hear about “Tiberius,” the campus mascot credited with saving students from the Memorial Hall Fire; “Stephanie,” the student who haunts the fourth floor of College Hall; and a personal experience with Mrs. Morley, the ghost of Morley Music Hall. These stories will be featured as we complete a nine-story Hyakumonogatari Kaidankai, a ghost story game from Feudal Japan, rumored to attract spirits to join our gathering. Our regular cast members, Amanda and Stephen will be sharing their own ghostly experiences in “Jared” and “Olde Towne Hall Theatre.” A special thanks to the Lake Erie College Community, especially Dr. Jerry Jaffe for inviting us to campus (and reading a part of the script).

Penn's picturesque urban campus features some of the most impressive architecture in Philadelphia, including buildings that are listed in the National Register of Historic Places. For 120 years, Penn was located in Center City Philadelphia before the campus relocated to West Philadelphia in 1872. The Gothic Revival style College Hall, designed in 1872 by architect Thomas Webb Richards, was the first building constructed on the new campus. The multi-purpose building housed faculty offices, classrooms, a gym, the library and research labs. The original building included clock towers on each side of the center portion of the building. The west tower, which had a large bell that called students to class, was removed 1914 (the bell is now on display in Houston Hall). The east tower was torn down in 1929. Professor David Brownlee of Penn's Department of the History of Art, says, "the University relocated itself really on the crest of a wave of prosperity and achievement. Those buildings built in the first decade or so after we moved to West Philadelphia reflect the energy of an industrial America and of its greatest industrial city." Brownlee, an architectural historian, co-authored "Building America's First University: An Historical and Architectural Guide to the University of Pennsylvania." Fisher Fine Arts Library, designed by prominent Philadelphia architect Frank Furness in 1891, is also in the National Register of Historic places. The Furness building was renovated and restored to its original grandeur in 1991, and it was renamed Fisher Fine Arts Library in honor of donors Anne and Jerome Fisher. In 1957, during a second building boom on campus, Penn hired renowned architect Louis Kahn to design the Richards Medical Research Building. It was completed in 1960, and Brownlee says Kahn's innovative design changed the world of modern architecture. "It was, in every conceivable way, as different from the architecture from the recent past as it was possible to be," Brownlee says. "Rough and granular, where that architecture [of the recent past] was smooth. Irregular and picturesque where that architecture had been composed defined by simple geometric forms. Highly specialized with respect to its purpose and to its place as that architecture had been generic." Having designed the structure to fit in with surrounding buildings, Kahn, a Penn alum, incorporated complementary colors and textures from the Morgan Building, and the Quad dormitories. Today, the Richards Medical Research Lab is among the buildings on an elite list of National Historic Landmarks, under a program run by the National Park Service. Text by Jeanne Leong
