Phil Milstein ’71 and his wife, Cheryl ’82 Barnard, were honored
for their ongoing contributions to Columbia Athletics at the annual Varsity ‘C’
Celebration, which drew more than 1,000 to Levien Gym on May 4. The Milsteins, seen at
right with Barnard President Judith Shapiro (second from left) and Director of Athletics
M. Dianne Murphy (second from right), both played tennis at Columbia and are the first
husband and wife to earn the Alumni Athletics Award since its inception in 1941. Caroline
Bierbaum ’06 (bottom, left), a five-time All-American in cross country and track
and field, and Milos Tomic ’06 (bottom, right), an international rowing star who
completed for Columbia’s lightweight crew, received the Connie S. Maniatty
Outstanding Senior Athlete Awards. Bierbaum finished second at the NCAA Cross Country
Championships last fall and earned the Honda Award for her sport, while Tomic, a
seven-time champion in Serbia-Montenegro, stroked the Lions to a fourth-place finish
in the National Lightweight Championships.
