King Carl XVI Gustaf's visit sparks flurry of preparations at Kettering University
By The Flint Journal
September 24, 2008, 11:34PM
King Carl
XVI GustafFLINT, Michigan -- There won't be a red carpet, but when Kettering University hosts on Friday it will be an elegant affair.
"We will have trumpeters from the Flint Symphony Orchestra heralding the king's entrance," said Caron Wilson, events coordinator at Kettering University.
Wilson said for two months a team at Kettering has been planning the king's visit to celebrate the groundbreaking of a Swedish biogas plant.
Flint Journal extras
• Swedish King Carl XVI Gustaf will be in Flint on Friday to celebrate the groundbreaking of the Swedish Biogas International plant, an alternative energy partnership between the company, the city and Kettering University.
• While the event is free, seating is limited and Kettering University has already distributed the 300 tickets for the 3 p.m. ceremony, which will be held at Kettering's recreation center.
• Gov. Jennifer Granholm and King Gustaf will use special engraved shovels for the groundbreaking.
She said she was initially puzzled about how to organize the ceremony, set for 3 p.m. on Friday at Kettering's recreation center.
"There's no to-do list on how to prepare for a king's visit," Wilson said. "We have been planning everything down to the finest detail."
Also on hand will be Gov. Jennifer Granholm, Mayor Don Williamson, U.S. ambassador to Sweden Michael Wood, possibly U.S. Sen. Debbie Stabenow and other dignitaries.
She said she was in contact with the Swedish embassy in the United States to find out the king's "likes and dislikes."
Here's the rundown, according to Wilson.
The king likes: Swedish rock band ABBA
Solution: The soundtrack for "Mamma Mia!" will play while guests are being seated.
Dislikes: Environmentally unfriendly practices.
Solution: The celebration will be as "green" as possible, down to biodegradable napkins.
Likes: Flowers and trees.
Solution: The recreation center will be transformed into a garden setting, including fig trees, ferns, mums and other flowers.
Dislikes: Rudeness.
Solution: Those who meet the king are being prepped on how to address him, including bowing your head slightly and saying, "your majesty." The king will be the first to extend a hand for a handshake.
Likes: Pickled herring, dark chocolate and fruit.
Solution: Wilson said she picked up pickled herring at an IKEA store, and the staff is making sure food the king enjoys will be at a reception after the ceremony.
Likes: Scouting
Solution: A Boy Scouts honor guard, displaying flags of Sweden and the United States, will greet the king as he leaves his motorcade to enter Kettering University.
Wilson said they also worked with the U.S. Secret Service, which will provide protection for the king.
"We had to plan it down to exactly which doors the king will walk through," Wilson said.
Kettering spokeswoman Pat Mroczek said more than 50 people will be volunteering for an event that lasts less than an hour and is followed by a private reception.
She said all the fuss is worth it.
"We're very pleased. This is an important moment in Kettering's history," Mroczek said. |

Linked says she is currently a first year Student Services Director. Before that she was cooperative education manager.
News and Information about Kettering Nov. 02, 2001
Campaign strives to employ Kettering co-op students
Garth Motschenbacher has the unenviable task of teaching today's college students about a work ethic that seems dated in a technology driven world. .
HIRE A BULLDOG
Motschenbacher's team is aggressively targeting employers that have either supported traditional co-op or haven't been approached in a while. Caron Wilson, cooperative education manager, is spearheading the effort. "We'll be targeting 28,000 alumni with a letter and a reply card," she said. "The mailing will go out before Thanksgiving. Then, we'll pick 30-50 prospects for one-on-one contact. We'll also be using faculty and staff to contact their colleagues in industry. If they'll give us the information, we'll pursue the lead.
"I keep telling my students the economy effects all of us," she added. "I tell my students good things come to those who work."
TERM BY TERM
The second priority is the creation of Term-by-Term Co-op Agreements. This includes actively pursuing new employers for 12-week co-op jobs and asking current employers to hire additional students on a term-by-term basis. Carmon Liversedge, cooperative education manager, is in charge of priority #2. "We envision this initiative will be especially appealing to employers who have short duration, seasonal, temporary or "back burner" projects their full-time professional staff cannot accommodate," he noted. |
