Vassar Quarterly - Fall 2017 - 36

At Convocation this September, the AAVC honored political pioneer
Frances Tarlton Farenthold '46 P'75 with its Distinguished Achievement
Award and presented the first-ever Young Alumnae/i Achievement
or Service Award to Marguerite O'Haire '08, a researcher on animalhuman interaction.
Over the decades, the Alumnae and Alumni of Vassar College (AAVC) has bestowed
many awards-for service to Vassar, distinguished achievement, and more-but
during Fall Convocation, it presented for the first time ever its new AAVC Young
Alumnae/i Achievement Award.
Sharon Davidson Chang '84 P'19, Chair of the AAVC Alumnae/i Recognition
Committee, says the award was conceived to recognize an alumna or alumnus

who has graduated within the past 10 years-and
whose personal and professional achievements
already have had a significant impact within their
chosen field.
It's clear to see why the first recipient was
Marguerite "Maggie" O'Haire '08, Assistant Professor
of Human-Animal Interaction at Purdue University
College of Veterinary Medicine, who studies how
human behavior changes-often in unexpectedly
positive ways-when we interact with animals.
O'Haire says her interest grew at Vassar and she
credits her mentor, Associate Professor of Psychology
