Claflin University Exceeds Phase One Goal; More than $98 Million Highest Ever – Raised for Endowment, Academic Programs, Facilities

4 / Honor Roll

Claflin University announced in March that it has exceeded its phase one capital campaign goal. To date, more than $98 million has been raised – the largest amount in the history of the University. The funds have been used to build the endowment, strengthen academic programs and enhance facilities.

“When we launched the campaign, we were focused on making a strong university even stronger. We wanted to bolster Claflin’s capacity to serve as a resource for the state of South Carolina,” said Dr. Henry N. Tisdale, president at Claflin University. “This campaign is unique. It is big. It is the most ambitious campaign in the history of the University.”

The overall goal for the Campaign for Claflin University is $96.4 million, with an $80 million Phase One goal. To date, a staggering $98.7 million has been raised to achieve the University’s vision.

“It is bold, but we believe that the founding of the University was bold. In 1869, it took quite an imagination for those founders to believe that they could establish a degreegranting University to educate the newly freed slaves in the state of South Carolina. Therefore, we could do no less to try to continue achieving the dreams and the ambitions of the founders of the University. We’re just continuing to imagine and continuing to build on that vision for this great University.”

The campaign’s success can be attributed, in large part, to the generosity of Claflin University’s inner family – its Board

of Trustees, Board of Visitors, alumni, administrators, faculty, staff, students and parents – which has contributed more than $19 million so far to the Campaign. One hundred percent of the trustees have given over the life of the campaign, and some 87 percent of alumni have done so.

“I have had the honor and privilege of serving on Claflin’s Board of Trustees for over 14 years and I have never been part of a more high-performing board,” said Paul Fant, chair of the Board of Trustees. “Together, we have given our time, talents and treasure to help make this campaign a success and we have done so not just because of our duties or obligations as board members, we have done so because of our belief in this great institution and the promise that it holds for the future of our state, nation and world.”

An astonishing 98 percent of Claflin’s administrators, faculty and staff have donated to the cause. The student body has surpassed its original $100,000 goal, raising $175,000 and is well on its way to achieving a new goal of giving $200,000 to the capital campaign. Claflin parents are also an integral part of the campaign, having surpassed their original $50,000 goal.

They are closing in on a new goal of giving $100,000 to the capital campaign.

“This campaign was about individuals, and believing that those who were closest to the University would be willing to give first and give the most,” Tisdale said. “I think all who come to this University really share a vision and mission.”

Imagine the Possibilities

Because of the fundraising efforts associated with the campaign, Claflin University made history in 2013 when it achieved a record 52.2 percent alumni giving rate – first among historically black colleges and universities and among the best in the nation, according to U.S. News and World Report.

“We have a culture of giving back on this campus – even among the students,” said Rev. Whittaker V. Middleton, vice president of Institutional Advancement. “That’s one of the reasons we have the highest alumni giving among HBCUs. A large number of our students are on some type of financial aid, but they are taught that if someone has helped you, then you must help someone else.”

There have also been a number of tremendous gifts from businesses and individuals who are not a part of Claflin’s inner family, including a $4.35 million gift from Sodexo Campus Services – the corporation that provides integrated food and facilities management services for Claflin – to support student scholarships, enhance facilities, and promote health and wellness on campus. Also, famed financier, philanthropist and South Carolina native Darla D. Moore donated $1,000,000 for the University’s Department of Music through The Rainwater Charitable Foundation.

“We’re not asking for a handout– we’re asking people to invest,” Middleton continued. “In this campaign we have received 15 gifts of one million dollars or more compared to five in the last campaign. People want to invest in something that is growing, that is multiplying, that is showing fruits, and when they can see that in our students – in the way that they walk and their confidence, and the way that they talk and the jobs that they’re getting – people don’t mind making the investment.”

James Bennett, University trustee and chairman of the Campaign for Claflin University, said the secret is out about Claflin.

“I think they (campaign donors) discovered what we always knew – how great of an institution Claflin is,” he said. “When we started the campaign, the good news and the bad news was that Claflin is the best-kept secret. If nothing else, we wanted to eradicate the fact that Claflin was a secret. During the campaign, that’s what we strived to do – to tell the Claflin story.

6 / Honor Roll

“We’re raising money to take Claflin to another level, to invest in the future. We’re really taking it to another level of imagining the possibilities.”

Of the $98.7 million raised, $20,271,565 has gone to build the University’s endowment – offering students more financial aid support than ever before. The number of endowed scholarships at Claflin has doubled, from 100 to more than 200 scholarships offering support to deserving students.

Additionally, some $1,685,877 has gone to endow faculty chairs and professorships to continue building a world-class faculty at the University.

Nearly $7,947,599 has gone to strengthen academic programs by way of much-need technology upgrades both in the classroom and throughout the campus. Claflin’s wireless access and smart classrooms campus-wide make its learning and living environment second-to-none. The University has also joined Internet2, providing its faculty and students the opportunity to connect and share research with major institutions, government entities and industry officials around the world.

Two of the most significant changes to the physical plant – Claflin’s new Molecular Science Research Center and the James and Dorothy Z. Elmore Chapel – are products of the capital campaign, as well. These additions were possible because of the $21,396,000 that has been donated for upgrading facilities at the University. The MSRC has not only been designated a core research facility by the South Carolina Research Authority, but it also houses a 700 megahertz NMR – nuclear magnetic resonance – which, until recently, was the only one of its kind in the state of South Carolina.

The work at Claflin University isn’t done. The completion of phase one simply segues into the campaign’s final stretch.

“It’s an unfinished agenda, but we will complete that agenda and exceed the $100 million goal. We know we’ll do it,” Tisdale said. “We hope to end this campaign in such a way that that next campaign will be a little easier and more believable when they launch that next campaign.”

“We must remain competitive. We cannot rest on our laurels.

Every year, we want to do more, we want to be more, we want to have a greater impact in serving our state and the nation.”

󰄠ision Begins at Home󰅷 ‘Inner Family’ Gives in Record Numbers

Nearly a quarter of the $98.7 million raised in the Campaign for Claflin University has been given by the institution’s inner family – its Board of Trustees, Board of Visitors, alumni, faculty, staff, students and parents – those closest to the University.

“The campaign got where it is today because there was a lot of belief in staying the course and also a lot faith, but the bottom line is people,” President Dr. Henry N. Tisdale said.

“This campaign was based on the belief that individuals would come forward and would lead.

“We have 100 percent participation in this campaign by the Board of Trustees. Over the life of this campaign, 87 percent of the Claflin University alumni participated and gave to the campaign. Ninety-eight percent of faculty and staff gave to this campaign, giving over $2 million. Our students gave over $175,000 to the campaign, and they invited their parents to get involved, as well.”

In all, some $19 million was given by Claflin’s inner family alone consisting of the Board of Trustees, Board of Visitors, alumni, administrators, faculty, staff, students and “The great thing about this campaign was the fact that it started with the inner family,” said James Bennett, University trustee and chairman of the Campaign for Claflin University. “I’m proud to say, we didn’t ask the community to do anything for us that we didn’t do for ourselves. When you

8 / Honor Roll

look back on participation from the inner family, it really set the tone for the campaign.”

But why did the inner family give – and give so much?

That’s a question Rev. Whittaker V. Middleton, vice president of Institutional Advancement, said he gets quite often.

“Claflin is a family school,” Middleton said. “People love Claflin. They like working here. And we have a culture on this campus of giving back, even among the students. In addition to that, I would say the outstanding leadership. If you go to any other institution of higher learning, you’ll find that the president sets the pace, and Dr. Tisdale and First Lady Alice Carson Tisdale have led with their gift. When you lead by example, other people will fall in.

“There’s a family togetherness that exists here, and that, coupled with the leadership that we have in President Tisdale and Mrs. Tisdale, makes people want to give. I think those are the things that have really led to this strong inner family phase.”

Emmanuel Pressley, Claflin’s first-ever Truman Scholar, has personally given to the capital campaign, and said it’s important for all students to participate.

“It not only shows their appreciation for the investment that Claflin has given them, but it also shows their love and loyalty for the University,” he said. “Giving back allows the University to afford future students similar opportunities that we were

afforded. I think one of the biggest indicators of the loyalty and love for your alma mater is the extent to which you give back.”

Former Student Government Association President Dillon Isaac, said student giving is an essential part of the capital campaign. On-campus fundraisers helped achieve their goal, he said.

“It definitely makes me feel like I am part of something much bigger than myself,” Isaac continued. “It motivates me to do the same thing – whenever I’m pursing any endeavors – to make sure I am always giving back and passing on that idea of being a part of something much bigger than myself.”

Natasha Carter, a 2006 graduate and president of the Claflin University International Alumni Association, said alumni giving is so strong because Claflinites take great pride in the institution.

“I think it just boils down to having Panther Pride and having an unexplainable love for Claflin University,” she said.

“When we come back here, we look at the things that are happening, we see the impressive campus, we see what the students are doing, we see what our alumni are doing – it’s just, basically, a point of pride for us. So we don’t really need the hard sell that most outsiders need. We already love Claflin.”

Tisdale said the strong inner family giving is a reflection of

why people come to Claflin in the first place.

“Claflin University is a special place,” he said. “I think all who come to this University really share a vision and mission.

Our Board of Trustees, I think they come because they believe in the mission – a mission of access, a mission of helping others lift themselves up. The faculty and staff who come to this University come because they believe in the mission of broad access, a mission of giving access to first-generation, low-income students who need a chance. And of course, those who come as students come committed to giving their best and doing their best. These grounds are hallowed grounds, and all who come to this place come together as one, as Team Claflin, working to lift Claflin to new levels of excellence.

“Personally, I find great fulfillment in having the opportunity to serve as the president of Claflin University. I find great joy in working with the faculty and staff, and being a part of the mentoring process and the nurturing process for the young people who come through the doors of Claflin University. And I find this throughout the campus – a very warm and inviting community committed to helping these young people find and achieve their educational objectives.

So I think we all benefit greatly from being a part of the Claflin family.”

󰄃cholarship Support󰅷 Donors Overwhelmingly Invest in Students

When the Campaign for Claflin University was designed, it was clear one area would benefit the most – the endowment, under which are many objectives, including building scholarship aid for students. To date, $20 million has been set aside just for that.

“With the funds that we’ve raised, we have more scholarships and financial aid support for students,” said Dr. Henry N. Tisdale, president at Claflin University. “We’ve nearly doubled the number of endowed scholarships, going from 100 to almost 200 endowed scholarships, to make certain that we could recruit the best and the brightest students.”

The largest single donor in the University’s history, Sodexo, gave $4.35 million in October 2013 to support, in part, student scholarships.

“They’re allowed to use those funds to provide and create more leaders of the future,” said Edwin Morgan, district manager for Sodexo, the corporation that provides integrated food and facilities management services for Claflin. “We believe that will happen.”

Morgan said he has been associated with Sodexo’s Claflin account for more than two years, and in that time, he has seen “consistent focus on making the student a better person and a better being, both from an educational standpoint and from a physical standpoint.”

“I’ve seen a big effort put into infrastructure. I’ve seen a big effort put into academics. I’ve seen a big effort put into scholarships,” he continued. “I’ve seen a big effort in terms of making sure that every day is a better day for the students here at Claflin University.”

Claflin University’s first-ever Truman Scholar, Emmanuel Pressley, said he knows just how important scholarship support is to being a successful student. He received a full academic scholarship through one of the University’s previously established areas, the Alice Carson Tisdale Honors College.

10 / Honor Roll

“I cannot articulate my appreciation for that scholarship.

That scholarship has allowed me to receive an education,” he said. “I think one of the major aspects is the assurance of knowing that my education is paid for, knowing that if I aspire to go to a conference, I can do that. If I aspire to study abroad, I can do that, or if I aspire to take a leadership position on campus, I can do that.”

Natasha Carter, a 2006 graduate and president of the Claflin University International Alumni Association, said many CUIAA chapters sponsor scholarships for students, as does the organization as a whole.

“Scholarships are always important,” she said. “When we have our meetings during Homecoming, we get a chance to meet those students and see how they’ve been impacted. We get to hear from them – what their goals are, their future plans.

That’s one of the reasons we give.

“We’re able to see the change, and we’re able to meet those people and see that the funds we’ve raised for them have made a difference. Just hearing all of that makes us want to campaign harder to find more funds, raise more funds, reach out to more alumni and get more people involved, so we can see that change.”

“The last thing the University wants is for a student leave Claflin because they cannot afford to complete their degree,” said Rev. Whittaker V. Middleton, vice president for Institutional Advancement.

“This campaign has really enabled us to respond to a need, and it’s an ever-present need,” he said. “And I must say that while we have achieved a great deal with this campaign, there is no rest. We must continue, because there’s always a need to move on to the next level, to move our students to where we would have them to be.”

󰀾undraising Edge󰅷 New Model Emerges in the Campaign for Claflin University

The Campaign for Claflin University – it’s most ambitious to date has redefined how the institution raises capital funds.

“I must admit that the decision to launch this campaign was not taken lightly,” said Dr. Henry N. Tisdale, president at Claflin University. “The process involved a lot of discussion.

We balanced the possibilities with the needs to move the University to a new level. In the end, when everyone understood the goal of the campaign and what this would mean to the future of the University, they were all on board.”

Rev. Whittaker V. Middleton, vice president of Institutional Advancement, said the campaign is unique because of the way it was launched.

“In the past, when capital campaigns were organized, the emphasis was placed on raising money from corporations, foundations and others” he said. “We decided to do just the opposite – we wanted to go to individuals and organizations closest to the institution. Then, when we met with representatives from various corporations and foundations, we wanted to be able to say to them, ‘Look, this is what the internal family has given.”

University trustee and campaign chairman James Bennett said starting the campaign with the inner family was an inspired idea.

“I’m proud to say we didn’t ask the community to do anything for us that we didn’t do for ourselves,” he said. “When you look back on participation from the inner family, it really set the tone for the campaign.”

12 / Honor Roll

The inner family includes Claflin University’s Board of Trustees, Board of Visitors, alumni, administrators, faculty, staff, students and parents, who have contributed more than $19 million so far to the Campaign for Claflin University.

That’s a significant portion of the $98.7 million raised for the campaign to date.

“I’m amazed that we are where we are today, based on the economic climate,” Bennett said. “We went through one of the greatest recessions of all time, and even as we went through difficult economic times, it was the Board of Trustees who continued to say, ‘We can do this.’ We stayed the course, and that brought us to where we are today.”

One hundred percent of the trustees have given over the life of the campaign, and some 87 percent of alumni have done so. An astonishing 98 percent of Claflin’s administrators, faculty and staff have donated to the cause, and the student body has surpassed its original $100,000 goal, raising $175,000.

Claflin students are well on their way to achieving a new goal of giving $200,000 to the capital campaign. Claflin parents are also an integral part of the campaign, having surpassed their original $50,000 goal. They are closing in on a new goal of giving $100,000 to the capital campaign.

To raise that money, the University relied on strengthening existing fundraising initiatives and embarking on new ones, which included embracing new technology, collaborating more with the Claflin University International Alumni Association, involving communications and marketing staff, and solid leadership. The Claflin University Call Center was launched

during the campaign. Online and mobile giving became more prominent, and direct mail, social media and email gift appeals were more strategically planned.

“We have put in place a process and strategies that regardless of who’s here or not, it can go on,” said Bennett.

“We’ve established a process here at Claflin with this inner family phase. We had some new strategies, like the alumni area campaign and alumni special gift campaign, and our Call Center. We’ve put in place instruments and strategies that we can build upon so that they can serve the University not only for this year or next year, but for 10, 15 or even 20 years from now.”

After first reaching out to the inner family to give, Claflin then set its sights on those constituents with whom the University does business.

“We approached our suppliers, and Sodexo was probably the first one to really step up to the plate in a very significant way,” Bennett said. “When you look back on this campaign, we touched almost every part of the University. And then, for Dr. Tisdale and First Lady Alice Carson Tisdale to step up to the plate and make a very significant contribution, I think that really said to the outside world that if they are committed, then we need to commit ourselves to this initiative also.”

Sodexo’s $4.35 million gift is just one of several sevenfigure donations to the University’s capital campaign. Others include famed financier Darla Moore’s $1 million gift for the Department of Music, longtime Claflin supporter Jonas T. Kennedy’s gift of more than $1 million and the Osher Foundation’s gift of $1 million to support access for adult learners at the institution.

“Our church affiliation, The United Methodist Church, also gave approximately $13 million to this campaign through its General Board of Higher Education Ministry, the Black College Fund, the South Carolina Annual Conference, individual churches and individuals within those churches,” Tisdale said.

“We’re very pleased that we had individuals and corporations coming forth with great support.”

Middleton said this particular capital campaign has set the tone for future campaigns.

“We’re just very fortunate and very happy where we stand today,” he said. “If we can raise the amount of money we’ve raised in an economy that has struggled during some periods of the campaign, then imagine what we might achieve during a thriving economy.”

󰄕echnology Enhancements󰅷 New Framework is ‘Second to None’

Thanks to contributions toward the Campaign for Claflin University, Claflin University now boasts campuswide Wi-Fi, access to Internet2 for expanded research classroom opportunities and smart classrooms across all disciplines.

“We know that today, and in the future, we will be educating the digital natives. The campaign has allowed us to have wireless connections throughout our entire campus, giving these students access 24/7,” said Dr. Henry N. Tisdale, president at Claflin University. “Every residence hall, every place you go on campus, you can find access to computers and technology.”

Claflin’s investment in technology has given the University the edge it needs to compete across the board.

“We now have the resources and the infrastructure in place that makes us highly competitive and allows our individuals – the students, faculty and staff – to deploy technology and be very effective in what we do,” said Dr. Zia Hasan, vice president for Planning, Assessment and Information Services.

“Our students come here with the knowledge and experience and a period connection to technology. We wanted to not only replicate that, but to improve the experience that they are bringing from the outside. I think we are able to do that.

“We have the infrastructure right now that can compete favorably with top institutions. Our bandwidth allows connectivity at high speeds. We have access and collaborations with other institutions across the country and around the world. Our students are taught in smart classrooms that are second to none that allow seamless integration of technology and have impacted learning very positively, making them very competitive.”

Joey Brenn, assistant vice president for information technology, said having the best technology is essential at Claflin University because it is so engrained in society.

14 / Honor Roll

“It was known from the beginning where technology was going, and Claflin wanted to be a part of it,” he said. “We knew that technology was the wave of the future even before the iPhone came out. We knew that technology was going to play a critical role in the life of our students and in the future leaders we are here to produce.”

Initial upgrades to the University’s technological infrastructure included the installation of new fiber in buildings, upgrading computers, adding dozens of servers and increasing bandwidth to achieve optimal computing power.

“We wanted to have a big-school feel at a little school, so that is what we tried to do,” Brenn said.

The first smart classroom on campus was the Iowa Room in the James S. Thomas Science Building. Nearly $136,000 was used to upgrade that room alone.

Specialized smart boards allow art students to see crisper images and colors during lectures. Surround sound in the band and choir rooms allow for better sound quality in those areas.

Additionally, with smart classrooms, Brenn said all teachers have to do is press a button and the room automatically sets up. Gone are the days of spending the first 10 minutes of class preparing a room for a lecture.

“A professor has 50 minutes to teach a class on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. If he or she takes 10 minutes setting up technology, you’ve lost a lot of time,” he said. “Smart classrooms aren’t cheap, but when you look at 10 more minutes of teaching time per class, it’s really not that much money over time. Tell me another way you can get 10 more minutes of teaching time. You really can’t.”

Dr. Caroletta Shuler Ivey, assistant professor of criminal justice and faculty representative to the Board of Trustees, said with the addition of SMART technology, faculty members are able to apply real-world scenarios to in-class discussion topics.

“For example, when I am instructing students on how to profile a crime scene, I can pull up a video on YouTube as a supplemental aid or I can take them to a law enforcement website as a reference tool to help them understand the context of the text we are discussing,” Ivy said. “Students are also able to use their mobile devices in class for supplemental instruction purposes.

“Essentially, the technology that is now in place on campus has transformed Claflin into a 24-7 teaching and learning environment and as a result, we have found that students have become stronger students because they are better equipped with real-time information as it relates to their fields of study.”

Last fall, Claflin joined Internet2, a technology and networking consortium of more than 250 colleges and universities, corporations, government agencies and research facilities dedicated to advancing innovations and scientific discoveries for the next generation. The University now has access to a network that enables collaborations with other entities working toward similar goals and objectives.

With Internet2, Claflin can strengthen its academic offerings by participating in the development of education and research-driven applications, and faculty can expand their curriculum and expose students to areas of technology, performance and education that were previously unavailable.

“This is a tremendous boost for our faculty and our students, in terms of teaching, learning and research,” Tisdale said.

For students, perhaps one of the most noticeable and exciting technological advances at Claflin has been the expansion of Wi-Fi on campus. In order to support the multiple devices – smart phones, e-readers, laptops, tablets, streaming TV services, gaming systems and more – that students bring with them, Brenn said Claflin’s network had to be brought up to speed.

“We tell students to bring whatever device you want to bring. We’ll support it,” he said.

Long-term plans calls for one Wi-Fi access point for every four bedrooms on campus, Brenn said.

“When our students go home, they don’t have any problems accessing Wi-Fi,” he said. “We are going to have the capacity that we need so that they can bring as many devices as they want and still be able to get a good, decent wireless connection. It’s about the quality of the education for the student and the quality of the life experience that the student has when they come to Claflin University.”

“We want to make sure that when they come to Claflin, they will not say something is missing.” said Hasan. We want to not only meet the threshold of excellence, but exceed that threshold.”

Staying on top of the changes in technology is a process that will continue well into the future, he said.

“You need a plan, and we have one” Hasan said. “What we’ve got here is second to none. But because we are cognizant of what is going on out there, it is in our planning to always be ahead of the curve.

“This is not only a wise investment for the institution, but this is what is going to take us beyond our vision of being one of the leading teaching and research institutions in the world.”

Campaign Enhances Overall Learning Community

16 / Honor Roll

Developing and attracting the best faculty to build the institution’s profile nationally and internationally was identified as one of the goals in the Campaign for Claflin University. Along the way, research has prospered in the form of a new Molecular Science Research Center that houses cutting-edge instrumentation and laboratories.

“We want to continue to pursue a vision, reaching high, to make certain that we achieve that vision of being one of the premier undergraduate teaching and research universities,” said Dr. Henry N. Tisdale, president at Claflin University.

“But we know also that resources are needed to support the vision as we go forward. We know we will have to continue to develop and retain the faculty that we have. We know that we will need to make certain that academic facilities continue to grow with the students and the programs that we want to bring to this institution.”

Dr. Angela Peters, vice provost for academic programs and a chemistry professor at Claflin, said since the campaign’s inception, the University has seen an influx of faculty who are research-driven and interested in all aspects of scholarship, teaching and learning.

“We think that we have built a really great undergraduate research program over the years,” she said. “We’ve seen infrastructure changes on campus, we’ve seen facility upgrades and enhancements, and we’ve seen a different type of student who has matriculated into the University – a student who is more serious and mature. These are students from South Carolina, and other states and other countries.

“We wanted to make sure that there was a focus on teaching and learning, so a huge part of the capital campaign was focused on enhancing the learning community, the science area, the STEM – science, technology, engineering and mathematics – area.”

Because of the capital campaign, Claflin was able to purchase such equipment as a 700 megahertz NMR, or nuclear magnetic resonance, a one-of-a-kind instrument in the state of South Carolina. The University is now recognized as a core research facility by the South Carolina Research Authority.

“We provide opportunities for other institutions to come to Claflin to use our equipment, particularly the NMR,” Peters said. “We’re really proud of the NMR because it gives us an opportunity for our students to receive hands-on training on a piece of equipment that’s typically found at top research institutions.

“We’re preparing our students to be competitive for graduate school, the workforce, or professional schools. We’re preparing them to leave Claflin, and be just as competitive as anyone else.”

The University is seeing an increase in student enrollment in STEM due to a renewed commitment to research. More high school students are interested in coming to Claflin because of its science program.

“We’re seeing an increase in students who want to go to graduate school, medical school or want some type of involvement in STEM,” she said. “We’ve seen an increase in faculty from the outside who really want to work at Claflin.

They hear our story; they hear about the great things that we offer students to be competitive in the field. They want to bring their research expertise to Claflin to teach our students.”

With all of the new technology and instrumentation comes a need for faculty development.

“The field of science is constantly changing and technology is constantly changing,” Peters said. “If we’re going to tell our students that we are such a stellar University and we offer a stellar curriculum, then we have to make sure that we provide our faculty with the resources and the tools they need to be excellent teachers in the classroom. Professional development is important for our faculty so that they can stay on top of the emerging science and technology.”

Also housed in MSRC is a forensics laboratory that is a joint effort between the University and the Orangeburg Department of Public Safety.

“Not only is it a partnership, but because of the Capital Campaign, we’re able to leverage what we have here at Claflin for the benefit of the community,” Peters said. “Because of the Capital Campaign, we have a contract with the SI Group chemical company (previously Albemarle) to test their samples on our NMR. Our students are also able to compete for internships and job opportunities at SI Group.”

Peters said the University also has a cooperative research and development agreement with the U.S. Army. That agreement allows for faculty exchanges, student internships and research opportunities for Claflin.

“These relationships are important to articulating Claflin’s mission and our vision of being recognized as a premier institution,” Peters said. “The success of the Capital Campaign is helping us reach our goals.”

The United Methodist Church The United Methodist Church – by way of its General Board of Higher Education and Ministry, Black College Fund, South Carolina Annual Conference, individual churches and individuals within those churches – has given nearly $13 million to the Campaign for Claflin University. The Church’s funds and support were instrumental in building the James and Dorothy Z. Elmore Chapel.

Claflin was founded in 1869 and named in honor of Lee Claflin, a prominent Methodist layman from Boston, and his son William Claflin, then governor of Massachusetts. It is one of 11 historically black colleges and universities supported by the Black College Fund, which assists the largest number of HBCUs of any church body in the United States.

The 11 black colleges are diverse in every way. There are approximately 16,000 students total enrolled, and 90 percent of them qualify for financial aid. Like Claflin University, these colleges are – and have always been – open to all.

In 2012, United Methodists invested 89.8 percent – or $9.4 million – into these HBCUs. The Black College Fund distributes 95 percent of all funds received equally to these 11 institutions. Five percent of the funds are awarded for special projects or activities. This is not a scholarship fund – the money goes directly to the institutions.

The Church believes that the work these schools do is not just impressive, but it is critical because many of these students would fall through the cracks and never earn a college degree though they have the intellectual capacity to do so. These schools are a good source of diverse leadership for the church’s agencies, boards, annual conferences and higher education institutions.

Dr. Cynthia A. Bond Hopson, assistant general secretary of The Black College Fund & Ethnic Concerns for the General Board of Higher Education and Ministry of The United Methodist Church, makes a presentation during the Visionary Gala honoring President Henry N. and First Lady Alice Carson Tisdale. Also pictured, from left, are Crystal Banks, coordinator of The Black College Fund, Claflin student Jacob Cogman, and South Carolina Conference Resident Bishop Jonathan Holston.
