f we have learned anything from the year 2020, it is that we are all in this together. Through all of the many obstacles the world has experienced during the past 12 months, it is gratifying to see the kind of ingenuity, flexibility, and camaraderie that evolves during difficulties. In the world around us, and the world at Butler, we have been fortunate to witness innovations in regard to learning. Through community and commitment our students, faculty, and staff have shown great resilience and a willingness to persevere even when faced with insurmountable odds. Though the times have been increasingly difficult, there is a lot of pride in what has transpired throughout the year. Truly we also have our donors and alumni to thank for this success. Many of you stepped up to provide extra financial support to our students and our institution during a time of great need.
We are eternally grateful to those who found it in their hearts to support our mission and help students finish what they start. Our gratitude cannot be measured, only expressed in safe and humble ways. Thank you! As you read the pages of this issue of our Foundation magazine, take time to appreciate the effort and support that has gone into this academic semester. It takes a community to educate a Grizzly, and we are surrounded by the best of the best. With warm wishes,

FORD DONATION Six-year old partnership continues to grow, support student learning Students in the Automotive Technology program received a strong re-affirmation of their career choice in October when a group of Rusty Eck Ford and Ford Motor Company employees arrived in the auto shop during class. The entourage did not arrive empty-handed either. They delivered a used Ford Focus branded with Rusty Eck Ford and Butler Grizzlies logos. After several comments, the keys were handed over to Mark Jaye, Butler’s auto technology instructor. Jaye pointed out this is the second vehicle donated within the last five years to Butler’s Auto Technology program by Rusty Eck Ford and the Ford Motor Company. This is one result of a valuable partnership that started six years ago. The cars are donated as educational lab tools to aid in the training of students. Other benefits include internships for students in the Rusty Eck Ford company. Marcus Hicks, regional technical talent placement specialist for Rusty Eck Ford and a Butler alumnus, complimented the work of Brandon Clark, Rusty Eck Ford fixed operations director, and Mark Jaye, for developing the partnership and building a stronger pathway from classroom to industry for the students. “Understand something,” Hicks said as he addressed the class of students. “You’re no longer a mechanic or a grease monkey,” he said amid chuckles. “You’re a technician because everything you do deals with diagnosis."
“You have training that’s invaluable and this is a partnership, I think, that will be going on for years to come.” Brad Wilson, Ford Motor Company parts and service operations manager, spoke on behalf of Ford Motor Company emphasizing to the students their need to enter the industry. He encouraged them to keep working hard.
a great need for automotive technicians and for great sales people in our industry. It’s a robust industry and there’s a great opportunity for all of us to grow in that. You have a great future ahead of you and a great opportunity in front of you.” Mark Jaye and Mel Whiteside, dean of the Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) division, both offered their appreciation for industry support of the partnership. “These types of donations are critical to our programs for ensuring we have the latest technology for our students to work on,” Whiteside said. “They deserve that and it makes them more valuable and employable when they leave here.” Before passing the keys over to Jaye, Kyle Eck, CEO of the Eck Auto Group and Butler alumnus, brought the value of the work service technicians do back to the economy.
“One thing I will say about technicians, mechanics, and service professionals, he said. “They are the lifeblood to the industry and actually, the life blood to the economy because they keep everyone running; they keep them going.” Butler’s Automotive Technology program is taught in El Dorado and provides a pathway to either a one-year certificate or a two-year Associate of Applied Science degree.
“Right now, over the next five years, 20% of our technicians will be eligible for retirement. And, we’re not alone in that,” he said. “Most of the industry is in that same situation so there’s

Honor Roll of Donors Every year we come together at the President’s Donor Dinner to recognize the wonderful people who give to Butler. Understandably we did not want to take any chance this year that would put anyone at risk given the global pandemic. However, we would be remiss to not say thank you to the individuals, alumni, families, and businesses who contribute to Butler’s excellence in and out of the classroom. Within these pages are hundreds of names of the kind and generous people who give of their time, talent, and treasure. Butler simply would not be the institution it is today without you. Though we are in a time where much is unknown, our friends who support the college have continued to be steadfast and for that we–and most importantly our students–are forever humbled and grateful. Please know how much you are appreciated and that we carry you with us as inspiration every day!

1970 CROSS COUNTRY TEAM
Celebrates 50 Years Fifty years ago a team of mostly freshmen runners did the unthinkable for Butler’s cross country team—brought home the national championship. In 1970, the Grizzlies cross county team was made up of 10 freshmen and two sophomores–a group curated by legendary Butler coach Ollie Isom.
“Total credit goes to Ollie,” Jim Hays (’72), 1970 team member said. “He was able to knit us all together to get us to become what we became. Got us in shape and gave us the confidence to get out there and do what we did.” The 1970 NJCAA Cross Country Championships took place at Vincennes, Indiana. Butler placed first, Allegheny Community College of Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, was second, while the defending champion and meet host, Vincennes University, took third place. Athletes ran 4.179 miles over the Vincennes Elks Club golf course. More than 250 runners started the race, which marked the largest field to ever compete in the NJCAA Championship at the time. Of that pool, 247 athletes completed the run. “It was upper 30s and rainy,” Hays said. “It had rained all night. You had to run the course twice, so the second time around was really sloppy. Two of us [from Butler] fell down going around the curve because it was like a pigsty!”
Hays explained for regionals and nationals, only seven team members could participate and the top five runners are what total a team’s time. All seven athletes for Butler were freshmen. “The camaraderie on this team was very unique,” Hays said. “The competition was crazy! We were all pretty good runners. [Ollie] had followed the guys’ careers so he knew what he was doing.” As the 50th anniversary of the championship came around this year the team wanted to have a reunion to celebrate their decades of success, however coronavirus changed plans yet again. Eight members of the team gathered for a small, socially distant celebration this summer instead. “Cross country helped me go to school,” Hays said. “Because I had the opportunity to do that [at Butler] I was able to find out what I wanted to do.” INDIVIDUAL RESULTS FROM THE COMPETITION Name Amon Thornton Bob Moreno Keith Wilson Doug Lee Jim Hays Abe Serrano Dennis Patterson

Each fall, scholarship donors and the recipients of their gifts come together at the Reaching New Heights Scholarship Dinner.

The next few pages list all of our scholarships, endowed and annual, and have some student photos and “thank yous” sprinkled in. We hope you enjoy perusing this list of some of Butler’s most generous benefactors!

COVID MEAL DELIVERY “Every breakfast, lunch, and dinner myself or student volunteers go to the dining hall and call students in isolation and give them the menu choices for the day,” said Newell. “The isolated students decide what they would like to eat and food service packages it up so the volunteer can deliver it. Dining services can even do made-to-order items such as omelets.” Colter, who is a music education major from Coldwater, Kansas, was quick to volunteer to help with meal delivery. “He (Newell) asked if RAs could help out. We weren’t forced to help, it was on a volunteer basis. That’s why I end up doing a lot because I don’t ever leave campus since my home is so far away. I like volunteering.”
Addison Colter
A personal diagnosis of COVID-19 over the summer made sophomore Addison Colter sympathetic to what others with the virus are going through. This in turn led to helping fellow Grizzlies as they navigate their own COVID-enforced isolation. Residence hall students who are required to isolate due to a COVID-19 diagnosis are housed in one of two campus apartments–one for males and one for females. Each apartment can house up to eight students. Since these students usually live in the residence halls and are on the dining plan, their meals are provided by the dining hall, but getting those meals to the students is problematic. Dining services does not have the staff to deliver meals, that is where volunteers like Colter step in.
David Newell, director of residence life, reaches out to his resident assistants (RAs) to fill the need. Meals are delivered three times a day. The volunteers pick up the meals at the dining center and leave them on the doorstep of the apartments.

“Without Addie’s help it would have been really, really difficult to provide the service to the students due to the sheer magnitude of meals we needed delivery,” said Newell. “She was pleasant about it and so friendly to the students. She volunteered and did it with great compassion and sympathy to the students and their plight.”
SAVING WITH HANDMADE WIPES When COVID-19 hit, organizations around the country snapped up any available PPE (personal protective equipment) until it was difficult to find. Butler Community College Facilities Management staff needed to find a way to provide the needed PPE for classes.
According to Jaime Sharp, director of college health services, “If the student in isolation is in athletics then their coaches are responsible for getting meals to them. David and his RAs take care of the non-athletes. Thankfully, we’ve been able to keep the numbers low.” Colter says she understands what the isolated students are going through. Her own case of COVID was asymptomatic, but she still had to be isolated. Her mom would bring meals to the bottom of the stairs and text her to tell her they were there. “While I was asymptomatic, plenty of people in our small community helped out by bringing meals to us,” says Colter. “I was glad to have the opportunity to return the favor. The people in isolation don’t see anyone, I know that after my own experience.”
Jan Stitt, director of dining services, says “It’s working very well, we’ve got some great kids here at Butler.” While Colter had to make some adjustments to her schedule, she didn’t mind. “I felt great about doing it. I am a person who likes to help others. I had to talk to some of my instructors to leave class a little early to do pick-up but I didn’t mind and the instructors understood.” As for her thoughts on COVID, Colter says, “It is hard to realize how serious it is if you don’t have the symptoms. I was fine, but an uncle of mine died from it. It is crazy how it effects people so differently.”
“We started making our own disinfectant wipes because I was struggling to find wipes under 10 cents per wipe,” says Ireland Turner, assistant director of facilities management. A vendor told them they could make their own for much cheaper using disinfectant they had in stock. “We found out we could make our own wipes for about 2 cents per wipe,” says Turner. “We have large zip bags that we place a roll of paper towels and then fill the bag with the disinfectant chemical and it absorbs in the towels. And the paper towels were available.” Turner also said if for some reason a bag was left open and the towels dried up, facilities staff could re-hydrate them by adding more disinfectant. “We’ve been able to keep up with the demand,” says Turner. The cost savings to the college is significant. “We will save between $7,000 and $10,000 per semester by making our own wipes,” says Turner. “We just couldn’t find any wipes in stock when we started purchasing PPE. This was the only way we could supply the classes with them. We didn’t have an option at the time, but it’s going to save us money.”

5000 Building Remodel College’s 5000 Building, Engineering & Construction Technology Building completed Transferring Butler Community College’s operations from Andover High School to the college’s property on 13th Street has been a major undertaking and the fruits of those efforts are now being realized for students, faculty, staff, and the community. The remodel project cost the college more than $13 million dollars and had been foreseen for several years as the Andover School District prepared for their own building project. The Andover Chamber hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony Thursday, November 12, outside the facility which featured Becky Wolfe, director of the Andover Chamber, Andover Mayor Ronnie Price, Butler President Dr. Kim Krull, and Student Government Association President Keirsten Kamholz of Cottonwood Falls. “I just want to thank Butler Community College for investing in our community,” said Price. “And more importantly, for investing in our children to give them a head start. Before they get out of high school, they can have their wings spread to go on to other ventures and other colleges, but you (Butler) are the first step to them being productive young adults. I cannot tell you much I appreciate it.”
Price spoke to the partnership between the city and the college as being a strong one, adding,
“We hope, too, that this is a starting point for many great things to come and I just want to thank you all very much.” Words were also offered by the architectural and construction companies on the project. Vince Haines of Gravity::Works Architecture took a moment to remind people how long Butler had really been working on establishing its Andover campus.
“This project started in 2000,” he said. “It started with a master plan and a vision from the college at that time. . .” He then noted the first project started in the winter of 2003 on the north end. Work then began to move south over the summers of 2005, 2006, 2008, and 2010 which at that time completed the central Student Union portion of the building. Work then moved even further south over the summers of 2012 and 2015. Then, in the spring of 2018 the final phase began. “And, here we are today in 2020 for a total of 165,000 sq ft of educational and support space,” Haines said. He also noted it was work carried on by multiple boards and two presidents.

“I think it’s a tribute to strategic planning and to sticking to a plan, and I think the college deserves a hand.” Bob Simpson of Simpson Construction drove home the importance of the project’s economic impact to the area. "I want to thank Dr. Krull on behalf of the literally hundreds of craftsmen and trades people who have toiled here for nearly two years,” he said. “In a time when courage to continue was tough, a lot of projects in the Midwest were shut down with the pandemic and economic concerns. I am very grateful to owners who were courageous enough to keep us all employed, moving forward in a direction.” The project remodeled 65,000 sq ft of the 143,000 sq ft facility and now provides contemporary study spaces, new science and computer lab space, as well as classrooms. To accommodate the addition of Butler’s services previously offered at Andover High School, the college’s Facilities Management department and the Engineering program were removed from the building all together. They are now housed in the new Facilities Management, Engineering and Construction Technology Building, a more than 18,000 sq ft building that sits just south of the 5000 Building. Earlier this fall, Butler Trustees approved the new Construction Technology program to begin August 2021. “We are absolutely thrilled to be at this stage with our Andover complex,” said Krull. “The remodel allowed us to move all of our student services into one location to benefit our students. For the first time, since signing our lease to purchase agreement in 2003, we are fully utilizing the entire space. Thank you to the Andover community, school district, and city administration for their support of our institution and our students. This is an exciting day for all of us.” Krull thanked Gravity::Works Architecture of El Dorado, Simpson Construction of Wichita, and Connell and Connell for their guidance, vision, and quality work in bringing this longtime vision to reality.
“This building will serve as a gateway to education, skills, training, and ultimately the realization of dreams for countless individuals over the years to come,” Krull said. “And, for those of us dedicated to that mission, we will be forever grateful.” Wolfe thanked everyone for coming and for honoring the college and its students, as “we are very fortunate to have them (Butler) here in Andover and we appreciate it very much.” New amenities for use by the community (in a post-COVID world) include the Kanza Conference Room, a 150-person space equipped with state-of-the-art audio/visual equipment, a holding kitchen, and wi-fi. In addition, Great Western Dining, the college’s cafeteria service, has partnered with Starbucks to offer specialty drinks at the new Butler Bistro, and the library and bookstore can be accessed for various books and apparel.
