Death of Former Staff Member Hilda Wick

We are sad to share that former OWU staff member Hilda Wick died April 29 in Delaware. Hilda was with the University from 1962 to 2009, hired as a professional librarian with the rank of assistant professor and working later as a part-time librarian for rare books/special collections.

According to her family and friends, “To really remember Hilda, is to keep going no matter what. To keep learning no matter what … no matter your age. At 95 years old, she was still writing emails and wanting to learn more about the computer and how to work a laptop. She never wanted to quit learning. She was still reading history and keeping up with politics even up until the last few weeks of her life.”
