Stookey Receives William Morrow Award from NMH
NORTHFIELD, Mass.— Elizabeth Bannard Stookey of Blue Hill, ME
received the Northfield Mount Hermon School’s William H. Morrow
Award at the school’s recent alumni weekend festivities. Named
in honor of former faculty member Bill Morrow, the award goes to
nonalumni who have had a significant impact on the life and
spirit of Northfield Mount Hermon School.
Stookey received a master of divinity degree in 1997 from
Harvard and was then appointed NMH Chaplain. While at NMH she
focused on enlarging student opportunities for formal worship
and creating a safe, welcoming space for students of all
religious heritages. She has been particularly instrumental in
helping students explore their personal beliefs, to learn the
confidence to accept themselves as individuals, and to develop
an understanding of and respect for those who follow different
spiritual paths. For several years, her multifaith services
provided moving conclusions to alumni events. In 2003 she
received a Certificate of Mediation.
