Dr. Griswold was a fixture at the Westminster United
Methodist Church. I grew up in the Westminster United Methodist Church and spent
much of my childhood, going back to the 1950s, at Western Maryland College –
now McDaniel. I have the vaguest memories of Old Main…. Up until the early
1970s, the college was affiliated with the Methodist Church. I was part of the
first summer church camps that were integrated at the college. And I have fond
memories of talking with Dr. Ensor about the integration of the college.
I have very clear and fond memories of Dr. Griswold. In
addition to my memories of Dr. Griswold at church and up at the college, he was
also the dad of a Westminster High School Class of 1971 classmate.
He was very kind and always had time for those of us who had
a keen interest in the college and the academic – and religious worldview. I
was especially intrigued with his films – and his interest in traveling and
documenting his travels.
I use many things I learned from Dr. Griswold – to this day.
We should never forget the folks who went before us and paved the way for the
infrastructure and community we enjoy today.
I had saved a place in my writing schedule to write about
him upon the anniversary of his death, but once again, this year, current
events have overtaken that opportunity. Perhaps I’ll do it anyway out of linear
sequence. I’m not much a fan of linear history anyway. Just saying. God Bless
you and your work, Dr. Griswold…..

Services for L. Earl Griswold, retired chairman of the
sociology department at Western Maryland College, will be held at 2 p.m.
tomorrow at the Westminster United Methodist Church.
Dr. Griswold, who was 71, died Thursday after an apparent
heart attack at his home in Westminster. He retired five years ago as chairman
of the sociology department, and had taught courses in anthropology at the
college since 1956.
In the 1970s, he made films, many of them on deafness and
others on anthropological research in conjunction with the college, and also
promotional films for Carroll County and other Maryland subdivisions.
In 1972, one of the films on deafness, "They Grow in
Silence," won an award from the Public Broadcasting System. The college
for many years has had an extensive degree program accommodating deaf students.

During World War II, he flew B-17s in Europe for the Army
Air Corps. He was a psychological warfare officer for the Air Force during the
Korean War.
