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. Roger Dale Weikle, who dedicated 42 years to Winthrop University, serving as a professor in the Department of Management and Marketing from 1975 until his retirement in 2017. He held the position of Dean of the College of Business Administration from 1996 to 2017. In this discussion, Dr. Weikle reflects on his experiences and insights while working with Winthrop President Dr. Anthony DiGiorgio.
