Interviewer
Rebecca Masters
Abstract
This interview was conducted for the as part of the Winthrop History Project spearheaded by Winthrop President Emeritus Dr. Anthony DiGiorgio and Rebecca Masters to “document the 24-year path of the original Winthrop College to becoming Winthrop University.” This effort was to produce a history of the institution and Dr. DiGiorgio’s tenure as president as a supplement to Dr. Ross Webb’s history of Winthrop (The Torch is Passed) that covered Winthrop history up to Dr. DiGiorgio becoming president. A key aspect of the project was a series of audio-taped interviews conducted with various members of the extended Winthrop community who participated in or helped guide the advancement of Winthrop over these years. That way, the Winthrop story will be told in an array of participants’ own words, own voices and from their own perspectives.
This interview is with Terry C. Plumb. Terry was a former editor of the Rock Hill, SC newspaper, The Herald from 1987 through 2007. He also participated in a number of community organizations which also overlapped from time to time with Winthrop initiatives. In this interview he discusses his and The Herald’s coverage of Winthrop and of Winthrop President, Dr. Anthony DiGiorgio in particular. He also talks about his experiences and impressions working with Dr. DiGiorgio.
