CHANNEL YOUR PASSION

FOUNDATION CHAIR’S MESSAGE

Dear Friends, What an exciting year it has been at CSU Channel Islands (CSUCI). Our dynamic President, Erika D. Beck, is leading the charge, tasking herself with deepening the University’s connection to our community and increasing the impact of philanthropy on advancing CSUCI’s mission – an essential undertaking as the University works toward becoming a national leader in underserved student success.

The University recently received approval to move forward with its Mechatronics Engineering program. The new degree will launch in fall 2018 with 24 students, increasing that number gradually until the total number of Mechatronics majors admitted each year is just under 100. CSUCI will be one of less than a dozen universities in the nation that offers a Mechatronics degree. This new major is a great example of how CSUCI is helping to fill the workforce demands of the local region and preparing its students with the deep and wide-ranging skill set necessary to thrive in the 21st-century job market.

CSUCI was fortunate to receive several notable gifts this year that advanced priority projects and

programs, such as the ongoing transformation of the Central Mall and increasing endowed resources to support student scholarships. The result of these philanthropic investments will grow, strengthen and transform the University while providing direct support to CSUCI students.

CSUCI’s mission is powered by the philanthropic support that endows student scholarships, funds expansion and fosters academic research. In the face of ever dwindling state resources and an increasing student population, philanthropy, publicprivate partnerships and innovative new revenue streams will be the fuel that drives the engine of this University’s future.

On behalf of the CSU Channel Islands Foundation Board, I want to convey my sincere gratitude to you, our most ardent supporters, for channeling your passion for CSUCI. Your gifts are critical as we grow, strengthen and transform to meet the needs of the local region. Because of your generosity we are able to guide and empower our students, faculty, staff, alumni and communities on a pathway toward opportunity and success.

We are so appreciative of all that you have done and will continue to do for CSUCI. Sincerely,

George Leis Foundation Board Chair, CSU Channel Islands

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

“We are so appreciative of the donors and supporters who have channeled their passion into creating this amazing new university.”

-President Erika D. Beck

Camarillo Holiday Parade

Commencement

It is hard to believe that more than a year has passed since I first joined CSU Channel Islands (CSUCI). I am absolutely delighted to be here and to serve as President of this remarkable university. Among my most insightful experiences to date was meeting and talking with thousands of individuals – from faculty, staff, students and alumni to business and community leaders. My listening tour enabled me to glean from campus what is not available on paper – our culture, our values and our people.

I also had the pleasure of meeting with many of our community supporters and was truly inspired by the passion they show for our students through giving, fostering possibilities for academic research, influencing their connections in order to expand our resources, and celebrating with us at University events.

Throughout our conversations, I was profoundly moved by the strong bond between our supporters and CSUCI. In fact, one of my most memorable experiences was observing the deep connection between our students and our very generous donors.

The year had many remarkable moments – beginning with welcoming our largest freshmen class and ending with congratulating our largest graduating class. Milestones in between included our Nursing program being ranked 11th out of 127 programs in California by RegisertedNursing.org, our Computer Science students taking third place in a NASA “swarmathon” competition, and raising nearly $457,000 in student scholarships.

Sadly, we lost two of our most ardent supporters this year.

Hank Lacayo was an early and important friend of CSUCI and served as a founding member of our President’s Circle and as a member of our Foundation Board. Hank also was instrumental in the founding of our Henry L. “Hank” Lacayo Institute for Workforce & Community Studies. He is dearly missed.

Lon Morton’s contribution to CSUCI, in just the few short years he was on our Foundation Board, was immense. I am so appreciative of everything he did for our University and the community.

At CSUCI, we offer our students an interdisciplinary approach to education that includes hands-on, real-world learning that prepares them for professions that do not yet exist. We cannot even imagine the jobs that our students

CSU CHANNEL ISLANDS FOUNDATION ANNUAL REPORT 2016-2017 • PAGE 4

will have 20 years from now. But we are preparing them by teaching new ways of learning and providing a solid foundation of critical thinking, communication, analytical, and problemsolving skills – and a deep sense of curiosity and a passion for lifelong learning that transcend any degree program. These skills will serve our students no matter where life takes them.

Our most significant challenge is securing the resources needed to maintain our commitment to student access and success. We are facing increasingly limited state funding and must focus on finding alternative avenues to support our mission. That is why philanthropy is more important to our campus than ever before.

We are so appreciative of the donors and supporters who have channeled their passion into creating this amazing new university. They have helped create a campus in which every student will have an equal chance to graduate and to succeed – regardless of their background, economic status or overwhelming obstacles they face.

On behalf of the students, faculty and staff of CSUCI, I want to thank you for being an extraordinary partner, for believing in the incredible potential of our students and for investing in their future.

Sincerely,

Erika D. Beck President

PRESIDENT’S DINNER & CONCERT

Big Bad Voodoo Daddy

Beck, Broome, Bruce Hornsby and Big Bad Voodoo Daddy

The 2016 and 2017 CSU Channel Islands (CSUCI) President’s Dinners & Concerts hold a special place in the University’s history.

The former event, which took place on Oct. 8, 2016, served as President Erika D. Beck’s first public introduction to the community. The latter, held on Oct. 14, 2017, shortly after her first anniversary, celebrated her inaugural year.

Both events are milestones in the University’s forward path and commemorate this new phase in CSUCI’s evolution.

“Celebration” is the central theme of each President’s Dinner & Concert. We gather to celebrate growth, new programs and relationships, student successes and accolades. We also celebrate the many generous people and organizations that make all those things possible: CSUCI donors.

At the 2017 event, President Beck and the University were honored to recognize the Broome family with one of CSUCI’s highest honors: the Robert J. Lagomarsino Award.

The award is named for the Honorable Robert J. Lagomarsino, a former U.S. congressman and state senator who also is a longtime supporter of the University. It is presented to an individual, individuals or an organization that has helped CSU Channel Islands achieve dramatic progress.

John S. Broome Jr. and his sister Betsy Grether, along with their spouses, Cheryl Broome and John Grether, actively continue a family legacy of support initiated by their father, John Spoor Broome (Broome Library). In addition to financial contributions, John Broome Jr. has served on the CSUCI Advisory Board and Betsy Grether is currently a member of the University’s Foundation Board.

As President Beck presented the award, she expressed gratitude for all that the family has given and continues to give to the campus.

“Thank you to the entire Broome family for your steadfast dedication to this remarkable University and for helping us transform lives every day,” she said.

Grammy award-winning recording artist Bruce Hornsby provided an intimate “piano bar” experience at the 2016 event while Big Bad Voodoo Daddy – the homegrown swing band that played its way to international fame – entertained an energized crowd in 2017. Both events were presented by the CSUCI Foundation and Rabobank and held at Ojai’s historic Libbey Bowl.

Rabobank, which received the 2015 Lagomarsino Award, has served as title sponsor of the President’s Dinner & Concert for many years and has supported CSUCI in a leadership capacity since the University’s inception.

The CSU Channel Islands (CSUCI) Business & Technology Partnership (B&TP) unites the University with local companies to expand educational opportunities for students and foster innovation that benefits both CSUCI and the region’s economy.

Since 2005, the B&TP has raised more than $232,000 in scholarship funds and awarded 63 scholarships to upper-division students pursuing degrees in business or science disciplines.

Qualifying majors include: Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, Computer Science, Engineering, Nursing, Economics, Environmental Science & Resource Management (ESRM), Health Science and Applied Physics.

CSUCI’s Annual B&TP Leadership Dinner honors current scholarship recipients and three B&TP leaders helping shape students’ success. This year is the first that an award was bestowed posthumously. Business Leader of the Year Lon Morton passed away three days prior to the event. Morton was a valued member of the CSUCI family who leaves a distinguished mark on the University and our community. We will miss him greatly in the years to come.

To learn more about him and his legacy, please see page 9.

Scholarship recipient and single mother Antonella Cammarota conquered addiction and domestic abuse before coming to CSUCI as a Computer Science major. Without the scholarship, dwindling finances would have forced her to quit. “This gives me the opportunity to continue this journey,” she said. “And it lets me know this dream is real.”

Biology major Jeremy Snoberger grew up in a rough neighborhood and did not immediately attend college. His father’s death from hepatitis C sparked a desire to help find cures for disease. “The scholarship is a lifesaver, especially to somebody like me who can’t afford to pursue my education without it,” he said. “CSUCI donors are the reason why I’m able to attend next year and may be able to do amazing things with science once I graduate.”

IN MEMORIAM

Nice Guys Finish First

CSU Channel Islands (CSUCI) Foundation Board member Lon Morton (1945-2017) offered sound advice during his nearly 40-year career as Chief Executive Officer and co-Chief Investment Officer of Morton Capital Management.

However, his most important messages were about how to live life and treat others.

Morton was born in Brooklyn, New York, and moved to California’s San Fernando Valley at age five. He grew up watching baseball, loving the game and excelling as a player.

At 17, the Los Angeles Angels signed him to a $22,000 contract (worth roughly $177,000 today). He played for the Angels and Cleveland Indians, and later served in the National Guard before starting his career in finance.

Positive, animated, passionate and hardworking, Morton was a family man who cared deeply about people, mentoring and making a difference. Prior to his passing, he created a video “conversation” for his grandchildren. In it he mentions the role baseball played in his life, and he opens with this key message: There was a baseball manager who said, “Nice guys finish last.”

I want to tell you nothing could be further from the truth.

He goes on to talk about the importance of goals, determination, integrity and love – and to say to his family, “I am the luckiest guy in the world; thank you guys for that.”

Excerpts from the video aired during a tribute to Morton, who had been named CSUCI’s Business & Technology

A Tribute to Lon Morton

Partnership’s (B&TP) 2017 Business Leader of the Year, at the B&TP Leadership Dinner on April 20 (see page 8). Unfortunately, he passed just days before the event and the award was bestowed posthumously.

Morton began donating to the University in 2011 and joined the Foundation Board in 2015. He served as a member of CSUCI’s Finance and Investment Committee and, in addition to his own significant financial contributions, he helped facilitate a $100,000 donation from the Dr. Richard Grossman Community Foundation (see page 10). Morton also served on several other boards during his lifetime and he was Immediate Past President of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Conejo Valley.

“Lon was an exemplary individual who led a life of zeal, determination and generosity,” said CSUCI Foundation Board Chair George Leis. “He fueled and improved everything he touched and he leaves a legacy of outstanding support for education, athletics and health care. We are extremely grateful for his loyalty and friendship.”

To commemorate Morton’s contributions and passion for baseball, the CSUCI North Field was renamed in his honor.

A dedication ceremony attended by his immediate family, closest friends and colleagues was held in late November.

DONOR

$100,000 Gift to Benefit Nursing Program Students

Before he passed away in April 2017, CSU Channel Islands (CSUCI) Foundation Board Member Lon Morton (see page 9) made arrangements to channel as much good as possible toward causes he supported. In addition to allocating a large personal sum for the University and arranging for a colleague from his company, Morton Capital Management, to assume his CSUCI committee work, he served as the catalyst for an extraordinary third-party gift: a $100,000 donation from the Dr. Richard Grossman Community Foundation (DRGCF).

Morton had been longtime friends with Grossman, who founded and led the world-renowned Grossman Burn Center in West Hills, and he and his wife, Rocky Morton, served on the DRGCF board. After Grossman’s death in 2014, the Mortons remained close to his wife, Elizabeth Grossman, and fellow board members.

Beyond friendship, they shared a common desire to help people through health care. Lon Morton had close ties to the City of Hope and served on the board of the Weizmann Institute of Science. Rocky Morton was a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner for 10 years and has volunteered with Malibu Search & Rescue since 1991, a role that required her to become a Reserve Deputy Sheriff. Today, at age 66, she still rappels from helicopters to assist the wounded or stranded.

In the months before Lon Morton’s passing, the DRGCF board designated the $100,000 gift to create an endowed scholarship for CSUCI Nursing students. The announcement about the donation took place at this year’s Business & Technology Partnership (B&TP) Leadership Dinner (see page 8) and coincided with a tribute to Morton, the B&TP’s 2017 Business Leader of the Year (awarded posthumously).

After the tribute, CSUCI President Erika D. Beck accepted the check to a burst of applause.

“This generous gift allows a promising Nursing student to experience one of the signature programs at CSUCI,” she said. “We are profoundly grateful … and intend to pay it forward year after year by graduating quality, professional nurses ready to enter the health care community.”

In a statement about the donation Elizabeth Grossman said, “Dr. Grossman revered his nurses and gave them credit for his positive outcomes. He would be so pleased to honor them in this way at the school that was in his ‘backyard.’ The Dr. Richard Grossman Community Foundation is honored to be affiliated with CSUCI and to continue Dr. Grossman’s legacy in such a meaningful way.”

Nursing students in financial need will be able to apply for the scholarship beginning in the 2018-2019 school year.

Margaret Tiplady Burgess: Nurturing Plants and People

Petite, fashionable, brilliant and reserved, British native Margaret Tiplady Burgess (1925-2016) loved flowers, gardening, exercise, learning and creating works of art. A nurse during World War II, she also knew how to take care of people and had an affinity both for caregivers and individuals who needed extra help.

In the 1950s she came to the United States, where she met and married a jazz musician. The marriage, which lasted 43 years, was a happy but childless one.

Burgess spent much of her time reading nonfiction books, walking, canning fruits and vegetables from her garden, painting and knitting. Her intellectual interests ranged from poetry and housekeeping to health, science and international news. She also enjoyed the Harry Potter books.

After her husband’s death, Burgess began investing her personal finances in the stock market. Her best friend, Dianne Nevers, said Burgess expressed great patience with market fluctuations and that her success allowed her to serve in a new role she clearly enjoyed: philanthropist.

Although Burgess never visited CSU Channel Islands (CSUCI), she developed a wonderful relationship with the University through her friend and trusted advisor Bill Kearney, a Senior Vice President with Merrill Lynch and a CSUCI Foundation Board member.

Seeing a natural correlation between her passions and the University’s needs, Kearney spoke to Burgess in detail about CSUCI. She was particularly moved by the University’s emphasis on assisting underserved populations and that several common outdoor spaces between campus buildings needed renovation.

In 2006 Burgess established the Tiplady Burgess Endowed Scholarship Fund, which supports a Nursing student and an Educational Opportunity Program (EOP) student in their studies each year.

These scholarships, based on funds held in perpetuity, will help students for generations to come.

“Margaret focused on donating to causes or projects that truly made a difference,” said Kearney. “She especially enjoyed supporting those who used her help as a springboard to improve their lives. Thus, she felt strongly about scholarships.”

Several years later, Burgess funded the transformation of a parking lot into the Margaret Tiplady Burgess Courtyard, a natural oasis with ample green space, shade trees, ornate flower beds and a “sensory garden” with fragrant plants and spices. She followed up with a large, unrestricted gift to the University in 2015 and left an estate gift for future enhancements to CSUCI’s Central Mall.

“Margaret loved learning and loved the idea of helping others learn,” said Nevers. “She had a real appreciation for the sciences and felt that young women should be encouraged to pursue education in science, technology and math. Contributing to CSUCI gave her great joy.”

PHILANTHROPY

Building a Culture of Philanthropy on Campus

When Jacob Jenkins, Assistant Professor of Communication, taught his first Nonprofit Management course at CSU Channel Islands (CSUCI) in 2014, he knew it would have a positive effect on his students, the University and the community. What he didn’t know was how quickly and significantly it would impact the CSUCI family.

Shortly after launching the class Jenkins had an impromptu coffee with Kim Gregory, a new Communication & Marketing staff member.

Gregory shared the story about the sudden death of her husband, Dennis, and said she wanted to start a scholarship in his memory someday. Dennis Gregory was an engineer and first-generation college student who couldn’t have completed his degree without financial help. Kim Gregory wanted to see that benefit extended to students like her late husband.

“It was a heartbreaking – and yet, somehow, heartwarming – story,” said Jenkins. “After that conversation, I was walking back to my office when the idea struck me that starting this scholarship could be another way for my Nonprofit Management students to explore the realities of fundraising and fund development.”

Gregory now visits the class each semester to speak, and her story has motivated many students.

Since this project option was introduced three semesters ago, CSUCI students have helped raise more than $8,000 toward the Dennis Gregory Mechatronics Scholarship. A side note: The University

announced the Mechatronics Engineering major, which focuses on robotics, on July 20, 2016, the fiveyear anniversary of Dennis Gregory’s death.

However, promoting the scholarship is just one of many options students may select to fulfill their course obligations.

Each student must complete “The Case Study Challenge,” a personalized service-learning assignment that partners students with CSUCI’s University Advancement Division and the campus’ nonprofit corporation, the CSUCI Foundation.

Students choose their own project components from a menu that includes things like making thank you calls to donors, interviewing a board member, supporting a fundraiser and conducting a focus group.

To date, course participants have logged approximately 300 volunteer hours, written 800 thank you notes and placed 200 phone calls, in

Lazy Dog Café to give a percentage of an evening’s sales to the scholarship. Some students have created videos to express their appreciation.

Several CSUCI Foundation Board members have served as guest speakers in the class, and, in September 2017, Jenkins and three of his students visited a CSUCI Foundation Board meeting to share results, talk about current projects and brainstorm ways to further develop a culture of philanthropy on campus.

“It’s one thing to read about board governance; it’s something else entirely for a student to actually attend a board meeting and interact at that level,” said Jenkins. “Our board members have a wealth of experience and knowledge and are a tremendous, greatly appreciated resource to my students. Every point of connection enables us to do something bigger and better.”

Nancy Stueben, one of the students who participated in the September meeting, described the opportunity as “an honor” and said she was appreciative of the board’s diversity and dedication.

“The meeting definitely increased my interest in community involvement, and I have since attended a panel discussion put on by a local chapter of Association for Women in Communications,” she added.

Another student participant, Brandon Burns, said, “Although I learned a lot about the Foundation – its board, mission and operations – in class,

attending and presenting at the meeting gave me an even more personal connection with its board members. Even if I don’t attend meetings or sit on the board, I am part of the mission.”

He added, “Dr. J leads the class in such a handson, relevant way that it’s probably impossible not to feel more connected to CSUCI. We understand that our projects aren’t just assignments that conclude with a grade. Our work has a lasting impact on the University as a whole.”

Burns’ comments were statistically validated by a Spring 2017 survey of 51 students who had completed the Nonprofit Management course.

Results revealed that these students were significantly more likely to give back to CSUCI following graduation. They also had a better understanding of what University Advancement is and held a more favorable view of charitable giving in general.

“I’m really proud of what my students have accomplished and what they aspire to do going forward,” said Jenkins. “There’s a palpable energy rising and greater synergy taking place. We’re helping foster new possibilities both on campus and beyond. That’s pretty exciting.”

NOTE: Nonprofit Management, a requirement for Communication students, is one of CSUCI’s most popular interdisciplinary courses.

GIVING

Student Emergency Fund Addresses Basic-Needs Crisis

Students are the heart of CSU Channel Islands (CSUCI) and giving them the tools they need to thrive academically is essential to the University’s mission.

However, a growing number of students at CSUCI and throughout the country are torn between daily survival and excellence in the classroom.

A recent study commissioned by the CSU Chancellor’s Office shows that nearly 25 percent of CSU students either regularly skip meals for financial reasons or lack access to toiletries and sufficiently nutritious food options. In addition, more than 10 percent are displaced from their homes because of things like an unexpected loss in income or personal safety concerns. Problems stemming from these challenges range from distraction and decreased performance to dropping out of school.

CSUCI President Erika D. Beck and the campus administration are proactively addressing these issues through the new Student Emergency Intervention & Basic Needs Program.

A three-pronged approach, the program operates the Dolphin Pantry, helps connect displaced students with temporary shelter and offers emergency grants. A primary objective is to destigmatize food, housing and financial insecurity – to communicate that a student should never be embarrassed because he or she is hungry, homeless or struggling.

The pantry – which provides food, toiletries and basic necessities at no cost to CSUCI students in need – serves as a key inlet to assistance. Students often show up because they were encouraged by a professor, administrator or fellow student and, once there, start opening up about their situations. Many qualify for more than one program element and get referrals to other support services.

“Helping meet student needs is a priority at CSUCI, and this program is another example of how we come together as students, faculty and staff to support our fellow Dolphins,” said Dr. Gregory Sawyer, Vice President for Student Affairs. “We’re helping students focus on what they came here to do: be a student.

“I’m humbled by the work that has been done on this campus and am encouraged by what I know we’ll achieve in the future.”

Those receiving aid have expressed heartfelt appreciation. One student who has been a regular visitor to the pantry has started volunteering, eager to give back in any way possible.

CSUCI wishes to thank the Camarillo Rotary Club, Coastal Embroidery, Sysco Foods, the California Faculty Association and Associated Students, the Camarillo Boy Scouts and the individual donors that helped launch and fund the program thus far.

THE STRUGGLE IS REAL: FORMER CSUCI STUDENTS SHARE THEIR EXPERIENCES JEVON WILKES, 2012

My story could easily have ended in tragedy.

I grew up in a rough area and family life was so unstable that I often lived in foster care. By the time I was 14, I was sleeping on the street.

A nice school administrator helped place me in a shelter, which led to a stable group home.

Along the way, I met Stacia and Luc Robitaille and became the first foster child in their Echoes of Hope organization. All of these people inspired me to persevere and raise my expectations of myself and life, in general.

I was thrilled to come to CSUCI but hit more snags now that I was on my own. During my sophomore year, my partying roommates stole my food and toiletries, then left me in the lurch with all the bills. On top of that, I had transportation issues. I felt alone, stressed and depressed.

Thankfully, the faculty and staff members who knew of my situation encouraged me to press on and find a more stable living arrangement.

When I was in school, I tried to not let anyone know I had been a foster kid or that I was in need. Society labels you, and the awareness that you’re on the bottom rung of the ladder is a huge emotional burden. Hope is scarce, and worry eats away at the hope you do have.

The programs CSUCI is putting in place are helping meet some desperate physical needs and, just as importantly, renewing hope. I’m now a graduate and have the opportunity to share hope with others. You become part of the giving experience and you perpetuate it.

MELODY KIMBALL, 2009

I grew up in a small Midwestern town and didn’t even know my family struggled until I saw my mom in a line to receive donated toys at the holidays. We were a hard-working family – even children worked when they weren’t in school – so I didn’t perceive lack and it was never discussed.

In my teen years things started to unravel as family dynamics changed and my mom, sister and I moved across the country. We found ourselves in overcrowded and unsafe situations.

While I was still in high school, I choose homelessness over the known risks of my current environment. During this time I worked two jobs to help make ends meet, maintained my status as an honors student and told virtually no one.

I attended CSUCI on a scholarship but never could make enough money to support myself. I slept in my car, when I had one, and couch surfed. Hunger, car maintenance and having a roof over my head – any roof – were constant problems, exacerbated by my pride and fear of telling people. However, without the support of those who did know and help, I never would have made it.

It’s amazing to see the University acknowledge this issue, take the first step and do it in a way that helps students maintain their dignity. Most of these students are really stressed by their circumstances and their brains are still developing, which makes sound decisionmaking more difficult. CSUCI is not only taking out the fear factor and helping release pressure, but also helping restore faith and build trust.

DUSTY RUSSELL, 2008

My dad was a Vietnam War veteran impaired by a back injury and PTSD. He also struggled to navigate the Department of Veterans Affairs system and claim his benefits, so we had trouble making ends meet. Under this stress, our family unit dissolved. I was basically on my own at 15, and I struggled with income and housing insecurity throughout high school.

I was able to attend junior college because of state assistance, but my housing situation was overcrowded, with activities taking place not conducive for a student. A negative home environment can be a significant burden to student success.

Although the issues with my dad’s benefits (and mine as a beneficiary) were resolved by the time I transferred to CSUCI, I’ve remained acutely aware of the nightmarish challenges many students face. Some are living by the skin of their teeth; a flat tire or an illness can set in motion a chain of events that derails everything.

I also know what it’s like to show up for a job interview in your best inferior clothes. Poverty makes it hard to represent yourself well. It affects your confidence, the ability to make friends, your willingness to speak up in class and your ability to land jobs.

CSUCI provides a gateway to a new life of opportunity for its students and especially for these students. The University understands this and demonstrates its awareness and support through programs like the food pantry and this emergency fund. Through these means, it conveys the message: “You belong here, and you are valuable to our campus community.”

Based on current enrollment and CSU-wide statistics, approximately 1,000 CSUCI students are struggling right now. Visit http://go.csuci.edu/BasicNeeds to learn more about this cause or make a financial gift.

IN MEMORIAM

University Pays Tribute to ‘True Friend’ Hank Lacayo

On June 24, 2017, CSU Channel Islands (CSUCI) hosted a “Celebration of Life” ceremony at the John Spoor Broome Library to honor the life and distinguished 55-year career of one of its most loyal supporters, Henry L. “Hank” Lacayo.

A tireless advocate for the underprivileged and underserved – particularly laborers, minorities, veterans and seniors – Lacayo was known for his perseverance, charisma, humor and generosity. He lobbied for a public university in Ventura County long before CSUCI opened in fall 2002, and he actively supported the University until his passing at age 85 in May. Lacayo served on CSUCI’s Foundation Board for nearly six years and was one of the founders of the University’s prestigious President’s Circle.

He was instrumental in forming the Henry L. “Hank” Lacayo Institute for Workforce & Community Studies (HLI) on campus. A nonprofit, nonpartisan business development and public policy organization, the HLI studies trends, fosters dialog and connects students with internships (229 to date) and undergraduate research opportunities.

However, his contributions to CSUCI extended far beyond the board and creating frameworks for greater success.

“He talked up the University in every way he could and he loved mentoring students,” said Leah Lacayo, his wife of 44 years. “Hank had deep understanding and compassion. He knew how difficult struggles in life could be, and he didn’t hesitate to step up or show up.”

She noted that he never missed a CSUCI graduation ceremony, HLI orientation or any event that congratulated students on completion of the HLI program, and he always stayed as long as any student wanted to talk.

“Hank was a force of nature, always zealous for the rights of workers, for his fellow citizens in general, and for CSU Channel Islands and its students – a true friend,” said CSUCI Foundation Board Chair George Leis. “He and Leah have been with us since the beginning and have never faltered in their passion, advocacy and support of our wonderful University.”

Hank Lacayo’s zeal and desire to help others emerged early in life and in humble surroundings.

He was born in East Los Angeles and witnessed the daily challenges faced by many low-income individuals. After graduation from high school, he served in the U.S. Air Force. In 1953, he began his labor career at North American Aviation (later Rockwell International) and affiliation with the United Auto Workers (UAW). Shortly thereafter, he was elected to serve as President of UAW Local 887, representing more than 30,000 workers in Los Angeles.

During his 33-year career with the UAW, Lacayo helped Cesar Chavez garner support for farm workers and held senior leadership positions at the regional and national levels. Lacayo served as an advisor to four U.S. presidents and directed a staff of 50 full-time political and legislative advocates as National Director of the UAW Community Action Program.

He retired from the UAW in 1986 but remained active in the causes he loved, serving as a board member for more than 30 organizations.

In recognition of Lacayo’s longstanding support of CSUCI and for education in Ventura County, CSUCI presented Lacayo with a Doctorate of Humane Letters in May 2012.

“Students appreciated Hank’s approachability, sincerity and commitment to making an impact in our community,” said Amanda Carpenter, who oversees the HLI program. “He was not only a powerful role model for our students, but to some he was a father figure. One intern described him as a ‘hero’ and said he aspired to be like him one day.”

Leah Lacayo, who continues to serve on CSUCI’s Alumni & Friends Association Board and helps perpetuate her husband’s legacy, said he would be happy to hear the intern’s words.

“Hank was a great father who sought to inspire as much as to give,” she said. “His message to those he supported was always this: ‘Pay it forward.

No one does this alone. If you’ve been helped, help another.’”

CSUCI President Erika D. Beck, who spoke at the celebration ceremony, referred to Hank Lacayo as “a remarkable human being.” She added, “Hank firmly believed in the transformational power of education as a mechanism for social mobility. I am honored that I had the opportunity to get to know him and to thank him for all that he has done for our community. He will leave a lasting impact on us all, and the world is a better place for having had him as one of its caretakers.”

Lacayo had many sayings. One of his favorites was “adelante,” which means “forward.” It’s appropriate as we say farewell to our friend and press onward with the causes he held dear. “Adelante, Hank!”

Contributions in Lacayo’s memory will fund a scholarship in his name. To help continue the legacy of this great man and learn more about the HLI, please visit http://go.csuci.edu/hli.

ALUMNI

“How much you give is not as important as what you do. Small gifts add up, and giving is about so much more than money. Altruism feels good and it gives people hope.”

-Kurt Harris

Kurt Harris Initiates First Alumni Recurring Gift

In December 2016 Kurt Harris ’12 made history at CSU Channel Islands (CSUCI) by becoming the first alumnus to make a recurring monthly gift to the University.

“I had just been promoted at work and felt I needed to give back to the school that helped me get there in the first place,” said Harris. “CSUCI did something for me that no other college could do. It allowed me to embrace my passion for helping others, and it gave me the tools and inspiration to carve out my own path.”

A political science major who was active in the University’s California Institute for Social Business, Harris was the first CSUCI graduate to minor in social business.

During his years at Channel Islands, he helped an organic soup kitchen that provides free nutritious meals to cancer patients improve its business model and packaging, and helped launch a program that raises funds for a mental health center. As an alumnus, he has judged student competitions and served as a mentor.

At the time Harris was promoted, he was working for Mobility Matters, a Northern California organization that provides rides for seniors and those with special needs. A program Harris developed, “Rides 4 Veterans,” launched this year.

Eager to advocate for those who rely on Mobility Matters, Harris sought assistance from Hank Lacayo, a longtime CSUCI Foundation Board member (see page 16). Lacayo not only offered advice and a letter of support, but also gave Harris the encouragement to pursue bigger dreams.

“I wanted to be an entrepreneur and to help a larger number of people,” said Harris. “Family, also, is very important to me. My identical twin had decided to move to Colorado, and I saw new opportunities within his community. As my wife and I made our decision to join him, we reflected on Hank’s inspirational words to me: ‘You have that mindset; go get it.’”

Harris and his family moved to Longmont, Colorado, in July 2017. Within three months, he launched a successful e-commerce business (the Hodge Podge Store), had lunch with the mayor and began collaborating with local organizations. Harris and his wife, fellow graduate MacKenzie Garcia Harris ’12, volunteer in their new community regularly and hope to start a nonprofit that helps the homeless. They also look forward to creating a CSUCI alumni group in Colorado.

“Education is key to resolving many societal issues, and institutions like CSUCI are invaluable to our communities,” said Kurt Harris. “How much you give is not as important as what you do. Small gifts add up, and giving is about so much more than money. Altruism feels good and it gives people hope.”

Scholarship Recipients Express Appreciation “The California Strawberry Festival Corporation Scholarship helped alleviate some of the financial burden on my mom and has given me the opportunity to continue my education and pursue my dream of becoming a nurse. My journey is not going to be easy, but it is definitely possible with this scholarship and the support of my family.

Scholarships enable students to concentrate more on studying for classes and spend less time worrying about how to pay for tuition.”

Stephanie Hernandez Nursing program

“I came to CSUCI from the foster system. If I hadn’t received scholarships, I wouldn’t have been able to attend college. Thank you for the ways you’ve supported me and nurtured my success.

I worked in CSUCI’s Financial Aid office for four years and interacted with thousands of hopeful students. Many come from difficult situations like mine and are unable to accept an offer to attend CSUCI because full funding isn’t available. That’s heartbreaking. Scholarships and support funds keep dreams alive.”
