As Rashad tells it, Ebony sold him on Harcum. because they always had a special bond. “It just gave us more time to spend with each other in our busy lives,” he said. His fondest memories of Harcum include working out with J.J. DeTemple, the president’s son, and “being able to bother my sister whenever I wanted to.” Ebony says he was never a bother, not for one minute. She never had to supervise him because he was always accountable and duty-bound. She did, however, have a unique opportunity to mentor him, serving as Associate Director of Residence Life. “He saw what I was doing, and he wanted to follow.” It’s been five years since her brother left Harcum and the special time it created between them, but Ebony still loves what she does. “I get excited for each new incoming class. I teach them life skills, to help take them as far as they can go. Each year is different. I never know what type of crowd is coming in.” One thing she does know is that the time Rashad spent at Harcum was special for both of them.
