THE PROVIDER Greetings from CSJ,

The Mission

This remains an exciting time in College of St. Joseph’s history. It’s my pleasure to share that we welcomed our second largest class in the last six years in August, with 52 freshman joining the CSJ family. Our dorms are also nearly-filled for the third consecutive year.

College of St. Joseph is an independent Catholic college that educates men and women of varied faiths and backgrounds for lives of continuing personal and professional growth, intellectual development and service to the community.

The 2015 academic year was filled with noteworthy achievements. I know that 2016 will continue this trend. A look back at 2015-16 We have seen continued momentum here at CSJ. Some of the highlights of the past year include: • Provider Scholars have contributed more than 12,000 hours of service in the greater Rutland community since the program began in 2013; • The College secured a $2.2 million Title III grant, the largest federal grant in our history, which focuses on student success and personalized learning; • Marble Valley Grows was awarded an $89,000 Bowse Trust grant to continue our work in local elementary schools; • The Unity Grant was created, awarding up to five full-tuition grants for Mount St. Joseph Academy seniors who directly matriculate to CSJ; • Pro-C.E.E.D. at CSJ was developed to provide cost-friendly professional development opportunities for the Rutland workforce; • Women’s basketball made history as the first female team to win a national championship in basketball in Vermont. The baseball team followed their lead in May, bringing home the College’s second National Championship in one year.

To fulfill its mission, the College: • offers student-centered undergraduate and graduate programs guided by Christian values that blend theory and practice and prepare students for careers of vital importance to society; • offers a holistic student development program that fosters personal leadership, civic responsibility, and service to the community; • employs highly qualified administrators, faculty and staff who support the continuous improvement of the College’s programs and services.

A look ahead at 2016-17 We look forward to continuing the College’s success in the upcoming year.

• The College launched several new programs this fall, including a medical

• •

coding and billing concentration for Health Science majors and online professional development opportunities in Radiologic Sciences and Urban Education; We are strengthening a partnership with AppsEvents that would allow participants in a Google for Education Summit Academy Bootcamp to earn graduate credits at CSJ. The College will continue conducting a search for its next president.

It’s an honor to have the opportunity to lead this college through its next year of achievement. As always, we thank you for your support of CSJ. Sincerely,

College of St. Joseph celebrates 57th commencement Sixty-two students passed across the stage at College of St. Joseph’s 57th commencement ceremony on Sunday, May 15. Rutland City Chief of Police Brian Kilcullen gave the commencement address, speaking of the importance of dreams, of giving back to the community and the value of hard work. Kilcullen spoke of his grandfather, who as a young man immigrated to the United States from Ireland, of growing up in Schenectady, N.Y. and of his ambition to be a spy during the Cold War era. The story of his grandparents is one that some of the graduates may relate to. “I suspect some of you have had to

make sacrifices to come to College of St. Joseph and were motivated by some of the things I’ve already mentioned. In some cases, you’ve come alone to a place far from home, a place you had never been, leaving your families and perhaps leaving neighborhoods you had never left before,” Kilcullen said. “All this to fulfill your dreams and to be able to provide yourself and your families with the opportunity to experience things you’ve not been able to experience.”

Catino’s speech from that evening in 2000 that has stuck with him. Those were the words he shared with the graduating class, words that had inspired him to seek promotional opportunities and to consider leading the Rutland Police Department last fall.

He spoke of a night that changed his outlook on life. Six years into his police career, he was working security detail for the Schenectady School District Athletic Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony of former local basketball players Ed Catino and Pat Riley. Kilcullen grew up admiring Riley’s work, but it was

“Those are the words I try to live by. Those words are what will allow you to fulfill your dreams. They have allowed me to fulfill mine,” he said. “You will experience failure along the way, but those words will remind you that there is hope, and that you will achieve whatever you hope to.”

“Work hard. Do the right thing. Everything else will fall into place,” said Kilcullen, remembering Catino’s speech. He encouraged graduates to do the same.

NEWS Dr. Richard Lloyd steps down as president of College of St. Joseph After nearly four years of outstanding service and accomplishments, Dr. Richard Lloyd stepped down as president of College of St. Joseph in May. Dr. Lloyd, who joined College of St. Joseph in July 2012 as its fifth president, is now serving as president of Bryan College of Health Sciences in Lincoln, Neb. Dr. Lloyd and his wife, Monica, who have been married for 30 years, grew up in Nebraska and have extended family there. Former Board of Trustees Chair Lawrence Jensen has taken the reins as interim president following Dr. Lloyd's departure. Jim Reddy, retired president of Omya North America, has taken over as chair of the Board of Trustees. “College of St. Joseph is extremely fortunate to have benefited over the past four years from Rich’s tireless dedication to our students’ needs, his enthusiastic leadership of our faculty and staff, the integration of breakthrough innovative programs and his active engagement in the Rutland community,” Jensen said. “What is special about CSJ is that we see ourselves as a close-knit family. Now, as a family, we join together to thank Rich for his service and to wish him and Monica the best as they begin this new chapter in their lives.” Under Dr. Lloyd’s leadership, College of St. Joseph achieved significant goals, including:

• Launching CSJ’s Provider

Scholarship Program, which affords CSJ students the opportunity to reduce their tuition costs by providing opportunities for community engagement –

Dr. Richard Lloyd

•

to date over 12,000 hours of service have been provided; Working with the CSJ board chair to receive the largest donation in CSJ’s history, of the former OMYA headquarters building in Proctor;

• Securing a prestigious Title III

grant of $2.2 million from the U.S. Department of Education, the largest grant in the College’s history;

• Building strategic alliances with high schools and nonprofit organizations in Vermont, New York and Masschusetts to attract, retain and nurture the success of economically disadvantaged students.

Dr. Lloyd joined CSJ in July 2012 from Hastings College in Nebraska, where he had recently served as vice president for academic affairs and vice president for college initiatives.

He earned his bachelor of arts from Hastings College, went on to earn a master of arts in English at Emporia State University and completed his Ph.D. in English at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Dr. Lloyd and his wife have two grown children, Meggan and Zach. “It has truly been an honor to serve CSJ these past four years and carry out the mission of the Sisters of St. Joseph,” Dr. Lloyd said. "Monica and I are grateful for all the support we have received from the College and from friends of the College in the local community, Vermont and beyond. It has been such a pleasure to work alongside so many talented professionals, and CSJ has a very bright future ahead given its Board and campus leadership.” The College is currently conducting a search for its next president.

NEWS Reimagining Giorgetti Library for the 21st Century Giorgetti Library is the hub of College of St. Joseph’s academic community. It’s where students spend hours studying and exploring the numerous electronic databases for research materials, and where faculty and staff meet to share ideas and develop new programs. Throughout the years, the Library has grown in response to the needs of the times, including updating its print collection and developing its digital resources. Now, it’s going to have a new look as well. The Library will be an all-inclusive stop through a Learning Commons model. Learning Commons are areas that share space for information technology, classes, tutoring, meeting, reading and studying. The first floor will include the Library’s print collection, as well as comfortable seating, group work stations and a small café where students can get coffee and snacks. The second floor will house two learning specialists, as well as additional workspaces. One thing that has been a constant at Giorgetti Library is the welcoming

face at the information center. Doreen McCullough has been the librarian for 30 years and is looking forward to the changes, which she says will allow the Library to better meet the needs of students. “It allows students to come together in one spot where they can collaborate and be close enough to the resources and research, all in one easy location,” she said. “The main thing is to get students into the Library, where we can help them answer questions and find research, to search databases and ebooks.” The objective of a Learning Commons, McCullough said, is to foster an environment conducive to teamwork and knowledge co-construction. “Libraries are transitioning from being just an archive to becoming a Learning Commons. The physical book still has an important role in supporting the informational needs of learners, but new technology has provided additional avenues of learning and content acquisition,” she said. “No longer do students need to go

to the library to obtain research information. Rather, they desire a place that involves participatory learning and cultivates co-construction of knowledge from a variety of sources.” McCullough plans to host workshops with topics ranging from how to cite sources to searching for journal articles online.This is the second major library renovation that McCullough has seen during her time at CSJ. The first was the move from a small space in a corner of St. Joseph Hall to the current location, which used to house the College’s gymnasium. “The space was smaller, and the technology wasn’t there. We had a wooden card catalog,” she said, reminiscing of the former space. “When this library was designed in 2006, it met our informational needs adequately. But things have changed since then, just in the last 10 years.” The Learning Commons and other initiatives developed by the CSJ Learning Collaborative are supported by CSJ's Title III Part A: Strengthening Institutions federal funding investment.

will educate students in basic health science principles, as well as more focused areas of medical terminology and medical coding and billing practices.

Medical coding is the transformation of healthcare diagnosis, procedures and medical services into universal medical alphanumeric codes. Medical coding and billing professionals are tasked with coding a patient’s diagnosis, as well as requesting payments from the patient’s insurance company.

“Our students benefit because jobs in billing and coding pay well and are available throughout the country, which is important given our diverse student population. Additionally, the concentration can be completed in two years, making it an attractive path to a sustainable career,” Prida said.

“College of St. Joseph added the concentration in Medical Coding and Billing as a way to respond to needs in the health care community, as well as providing good-paying careers for our students,” said Dr. Jonas Prida, interim

NEWS CSJ gives students a road map to success with Guided Pathways Beginning this fall, each new undergraduate student at College of St. Joseph has a well-defined academic road map leading to four-year graduation success. The Guided Pathways Initiative was developed through the CSJ Learning Collaborative, with input from faculty, division chairs, and the registrar’s office. Pathways were created this past summer for all academic majors, each detailing both required and elective courses semester by semester to promote on-time graduation. “Higher education research indicates that the longer students continue without a defined degree path and plan, the less likely they are to graduate within a four year period,” said Coordinator for Pathway Integration Leigh Cherry. Guided Pathways provide students with a model to avoid wasted credits, while allowing flexibility for courses in topics of interest outside their chosen major.

“We know that most first generation freshman are not independent learners yet. Guided Pathways essentially show them how to get out of a forest, so to speak,” said Dr. Jonas Prida, interim vice president for academic affairs and dean of faculty. “A catalog is just numbers and words, whereas the visual of Guided Pathways shows them that you should take this course, this semester. It restricts to allow just enough choice, so that all classes selected are meaningful.” An additional benefit of the CSJ academic pathways model is that twoyear associate degree milestones are included in each degree path. “Something we regularly see in first year, first generation students is that it’s hard to see four years ahead of them. That seems like a really long time from their end. Having an A.A. or A.S. component built into every degree program means that students can look at this roadmap and if they’re having difficulty or a major life change, know that if they take just one more semester, they can graduate

with an associate’s degree,” Prida said. “This ends the problem of having 65 credits, but no degree. If you’re from inner city Boston, having an AA or AS completely changes the dynamic when you return.” All Guided Pathways were designed so that general education and required courses for each major are taken early on, making changing majors easier for students. “Fall semester of freshmen year is fairly standard across academic divisions, which was intentional,” Cherry said. “If you are undecided or you decide to change majors, the credits you take won’t be lost. The courses students choose will all be meaningful toward graduation requirements.” Guided Pathways and other initiatives developed by the CSJ Learning Collaborative are supported by CSJ’s Title III Part A: Strengthening Institutions federal funding investment.

NEWS CSJ transforms Carriage House for Radiologic Sciences Program The College of St. Joseph Radiologic Sciences Program has a new home. The program's classes are now held in the Carriage House. The large building, located on the west side of the Rutland campus, has been empty for several years after serving as an alternative studyspace and student center at various times throughout the College’s rich history. With the renovations, the Carriage House is the latest GMP eBusiness, a super-efficient facility with heat pumps for cooling amd heating. “From the crawl space underneath to the energy-efficient LED lighting, the building has moved from the 19th Century to the 21st in four short months,” CSJ Interim President Larry Jensen said. The project was completed just before the fall semester began. It started with a call from CSJ Director of Maintenance Tom Beland to the GMP Energy Innovation Center, which coordinated the project. GMP’s eBusiness program creates holistic energy makeovers that help business customers save money, increase the comfort of their facilities and use less energy. eBusiness and eHome projects can include weatherization, heat pumps for heating and cooling, heat pump water heaters, solar, electric vehicles and technology to track and control usage. GMP coordinated planning and work with CSJ, Efficiency Vermont, and Structural Energy of Middlebury. Efficiency Vermont provided rebates for weatherization and lighting, Structural Energy conducted an energy audit and provided air sealing, insulation and related weatherization work and GMP

The Carriage House

provided a two-condenser, eight-head heat pump system to heat and cool the renovated space. The system can be remotely operated via a GMP app on Beland’s cell phone or computer.

With the updates, one new classroom has an x-ray machine, while the other is equipped with an ultrasound unit, making hands-on practice easier for the students participating in the program.

“It’s exciting to see it come back to life, with a mix of historic character and new-age heating, cooling and lighting,” Beland said. “I’m thrilled to return it to productive use, and to do it in a way that minimizes the environmental impact.”

“Before, we had to go to a clinical site off campus, which is an actual working site,” said Roger Weeden, radiologic sciences program director. “By having a lab on campus, it allows us to provide more individualized attention where students can make an appointment and come in beyond the scheduled classroom time to hone their clinical skills.”

The renovations also include developing the first floor interior to include two classrooms featuring state-of-the-art, non-ionizing diagnostic equipment, office space for three professors, a conference room, as well as storage space. The College was previously using an offsite lab, but it would not have been large enough for the anticipated growth in the Radiologic Sciences program enrollment.

Weeden also believes that the laboratory element will be a benefit in each classroom. “By doing it in the classroom itself, we can do a lecture and demonstrate live what we’re talking about,” he said. “It will make it very seamless.”

NEWS Provider Program scholars complete 12,000 hours of service College of St. Joseph is proud to announce that Provider Scholars have contributed 12,628 service hours in the community since the program’s inception in fall 2013. The Provider Scholarship, worth $65,500 over four years for full-time residential undergraduates, incorporates a commitment to academic curiosity, personal and professional growth and community service. The program fosters personal leadership skills, civic responsibility and community engagement, while providing generous financial support. Fifteen service hours are required of each of the 175 students in the program; however, many Provider Scholars contribute more than the required service. “In two and a half years, Provider Program Scholars have made a significant, measurable impact upon the Rutland community. 12,000 hours is a remarkable achievement for the Provider Program, and our students are to be commended for their dedication to helping transform and better the Rutland community,” said Meggan Lloyd, community engagement

NEW STUDENT DAY

New students during move-in day Aug. 18.

Welcome, Class of 2020! The newest members of the CSJ community arrived on campus Aug. 18 when freshmen and transfer students moved into the College’s residence halls and began to learn what it means to be a part of the CSJ family. Residence Life staff helped unpack cars filled with plastic tubs, beanbags, boxed microwaves and mini-fridges, welcoming the 85 incoming students to their new home – up from last year’s 77 new students. This is the third consecutive year that housing has been filled or nearly filled, something that Director of Admissions Ken LaBate is especially excited about. “We have a very diverse class coming in, with students from across the country calling CSJ home,” he said. “We have students coming from as far away as Hawaii, Texas, Florida and Pennsylvania, as well as one international student.”

LaBate is also excited about the number of Vermont students who chose to attend College of St. Joseph this fall. 49 percent of the incoming class hails from the Green Mountain State, he said. “This is something we’re very proud of. We’ve got a few Red Raiders,” he said, referring to the group of students coming from Rutland High School. Most high school students choose to leave Vermont to continue their education, said LaBate, but he noted that Vermonters are “becoming wise to the numbers game,” referencing the College’s affordability through the Provider Scholarship Program model. New Student Orientation continued the following day, opening with a spiritual reflection led by adjunct Professor Bruce Bishop. “We are a family – unique and diverse –

but we are family,” he said. Interim President Lawrence Jensen officially welcomed the new class, sharing that when he was an undergraduate, the college's president told his class to look to the left and the right, because only one of them would earn their degree. “There are 85 of you sitting in this theater right now. It’s my greatest hope that we deliver the same number of diplomas in four years,” he said. While CSJ provides students with the tools needed to succeed, it’s ultimately up to students to be the drivers of their education, he said. “The most important thing I want you to take away from here is that you came and did something you wanted to do, which is get a degree,” he said. “You will be proud of yourself for the rest of your life.”

ALUMNI PROFILE

Miriah Wall

"Going to CSJ for grad school was sort of coming home" Miriah Wall graduated from College of St. Joseph in 2015 with a Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Since then, she has helped open an integrative wellness center in White River Junction.

Q: Why did you choose CSJ to pursue your graduate degree? A: For me, going to CSJ for grad school was sort of coming home. My mother received her Masters in Education from CSJ and it was actually at her suggestion that I checked it out. I was drawn to the small class sizes and the opportunity to connect with professors both in and out of class. With plenty of debt already from my undergraduate degree, the value was certainly appreciated as well.

Q: How has attending CSJ helped you in your career pursuits?

A: I could not be where I am in my

career without the degree I earned from CSJ. CSJ gave me a solid knowledge foundation, as well as allowed me the opportunity to explore areas of personal interest. While integrative wellness, yoga and mindfulness were not

College of St. Joseph â&#x20AC;˘ The Provider

significant parts of the curriculum, all of my professors were supportive and encouraging of my alternative approach to mental health.

Q: What parts of your CSJ education do you feel were most important?

A: I appreciated my time during

undergrad at Boston Univeristy immensely; however, it was an easy place to get lost. At CSJ, not only did I know my professors, but they knew me. The small classes allowed me, a rather quiet student during my undergraduate years, to find my voice. Through finding comfort in speaking in front of my peers I gained a sense of confidence that I might not have found had I not been at CSJ. Additionally, the opportunity to create my own independent study around yoga and therapy was huge in helping me to shape my theoretical orientation to counseling.

Q: What professor most shaped your experience at CSJ?

A: Dr. Reed, Professor Gilmore, Dr.

Kesler and Dr. Walsh. Despite the fact

that they work with so many students on a regular basis, they make each student feel like his or her opinions and thoughts are interesting and signficant. Their knowledge, kindness and commitment to education makes them the best.

Q: What is your favorite memory from your time spent at CSJ? A: Having the opportunity to do my internship for both years in CSJ counseling services was invaluable to my current career path. I found working with teens and young adults to be immensely interesting and rewarding for me and continue to work primarily with that population today.

Q: What advice would you give future alumni?

A: Find a mentor. So much is learned

in the classroom, but having at least one close relationship with a professor on campus can be key. Not only is it helpful to have that support while in school, but having that close relationship can also be invaluable after grad school in terms of networking and recommendations.
