Dr. Carl. D. Duncan (1895-1966), former SJSU professor and chairman of the National Science Department, began his career at San Jose State College in 1922. During his tenure he mentored many students, and between the years 1964-1966, he mentored Patricia Carpio (Whiting), a student in the Humanities & Art. Whiting worked for Dr. Duncan, who served as the secretary of the Field Studies program at that time. Whiting went on to become the first Filipino woman elected to the Oregon State Legislature, serving three terms from 1972-1978, and a community activist and beloved leader. Duncan and Whiting maintained a long-term friendship that lasted until his death in 1966. Patricia Whiting died at age 69 on July 1, 2010 of cancer. She is survived by her husband Vincent Whiting.
Dear Patricia: Doris “urgently” wants you to phone her today – preferably as soon as it is convenient. It’s about her writing and she says she needs help to go ahead. Also I had a phone call from Sandra, my niece in Indiana, this morning. She says they’d like me to come visit them on the 5th to 10 as tentatively proposed, the reason being she’s buying tickets to an opera to be given at the University & wants to get one for me too. That means I’ll not be able to take you to the Clinic on Friday May 6 or on May 29, though I’ll still take you this Friday – Tomorrow April 22. Ok? Love Carl.
