Abstract
This interview was conducted as part of the Winthrop History Project, an initiative led by Winthrop President Emeritus Dr. Anthony DiGiorgio and Rebecca Masters. The project aimed to document Winthrop’s transformation over Dr. DiGiorgio’s 24-year tenure, tracing the institution’s evolution from Winthrop College to Winthrop University. Designed to supplement Dr. Ross Webb’s The Torch is Passed, which chronicles Winthrop’s history up to Dr. DiGiorgio’s presidency, this project sought to provide a comprehensive account of this significant period.
A key component of the initiative was a series of recorded interviews with members of the extended Winthrop community who played a role in shaping the university’s progress. These firsthand narratives preserve the voices, experiences, and perspectives of those who contributed to Winthrop’s growth and development.
This interview features Dr. Gary Lee Stone, Professor Emeritus of Economics at Winthrop University. Joining the faculty in August 1975, Dr. Stone served as the Director of Winthrop's Center for Economic Education and held the position of Chief Faculty Marshal for several decades. In this discussion, he reflects on his experiences at Winthrop and his interactions with President Dr. Anthony DiGiorgio.
