I arrived at Brown the same year as Debbi Fuhrman, not as a prized recruit, but as a junior transfer who hadn’t done gymnastics since high school. I found my way to Coach Court’s crowded office in Sayles (“Joy and Determination, Sept./Oct. ’20), introduced myself, and asked if I could join the team. To the best of my recollection, she said, “Let’s give it a try.” Being on the gymnastics team was one of the highlights of my Brown experience. I wish I’d had the opportunity to thank Coach Court for all that I gained, and to tell her how much I appreciated her ethos of hard work, opportunity, and inclusion. I will always respect and admire her fierce devotion to the University and to the gymnastics program.
