SMITH--Ruth Proskauer. The Governing Council and Members of Quest, the CCNY/CWE Community for Lifelong Learning of the City University of New York notes with deepest sorrow the passing of one of our beloved founders and most active members. Ruth brought vitality to our peer-learning organization that is cherished by all who knew her. Ruth was active in many daily classes and was a coordinator responsible for the Supreme Court Course for many years. We will miss her strong voice and well formed opinions which always enriched our discussions. When asked in an interview in 2008 why she devoted so much time and effort to Quest she answered "...it's so positive, I guess you can tell by the number of years I have been coming. I don't think I would be myself without it, not having a focus for what you are going to do each day, means that you're sort of a couch potato." We at Quest, (www.questonline.org) wish to convey our sincerest condolences to her family, friends and all who were touched by her tireless efforts on behalf of Women's Rights and her advocacy for the rights of the terminally ill.
