Class of 1961: Golf

As the first alumna to be inducted into the Carleton Alumni "C" Club Hall of Fame, Carole Pushing Burch certainly represents the highest in athletic achievement. As a freshman at Carleton, she won the National Women's Collegiate Golf Championship. In the same year, she won the Minnesota State Amateur Golf Tournament, an event she would win again two years later.

Besides her golfing accomplishments, Carole Pushing Burch was involved in music, playing in the Concert Band. She was also a member of the Chamber Singers and the Carleton Choir. During her senior year she was the recipient of a Woodrow Wilson Fellowship for graduate study in music.
