memorial gift wishes. It is our tradition to designate memorial gifts to the CC Endowment Trust Fund to support our Tuition Assistance
Since the publication of our Winter 2016 Issue, the following Memorial
Program.
Funds (in honor of CC Alumni) have been created:
The last issue of the Aluminator featured only the Memorial Funds
• Thomas Pozniak ’59 Memorial Fund
named in honor of our deceased alumni. This issue features
• Andrew V. Schembri ’51 Memorial Fund
Memorial Funds named in honor of Family & Friends.
• Dr. Michael Moir ’64 Memorial Fund
• Thomas O’Connor ’51 Memorial Fund
All of these funds will remain at CC in perpetuity. Any fund that reaches a total of $25,000 creates a “named” scholarship fund. All named scholarship funds are recognized on the Endowment Trust - Wall of Honor in the main corridor at CC.
• James Lagrou ’50 Memorial Fund • Michael T. Murray ’48 Memorial Fund • Philip R. Reilly ’15 Memorial Fund • Rick Faubert ’54 Memorial Fund • Jerry Loughlin ’44 Memorial Fund • Norbert Suchowski ’48 Memorial Fund
Completed Funding Priorities • STUDENTS - Our goal was to at least double the dollars in the Endowment Trust and we did that! The Endowment Trust exists for the sole purpose of funding our Tuition Assistance Program. • ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE - Our goal was to start an Endowment for faculty compensation and we did that! That fund now totals over $200,000 and growing. • CAMPUS SAFETY - Our goal was to expand parking on campus to improve student and visitor safety and we did that with the addition of over 300 additional parking spaces!
Our Final Priority LONG-TERM FINANCIAL STABILITY • Our goal was to fulfill our final obligations for the building and construction of our Novi campus. This we have not yet done.
Remaining Amount: $1,990,400.00 • If not fulfilled by 2018, it will become the burden of our current and future students and their families. • If unpaid, this balance will mean a tuition increase of $250/student for the next ten years. That represents an extra increase on top of any routine annual increase to account for operational expenses. • This would mean a significant burden and will surely have a negative impact on enrollment. • Our primary goal has always been accessibility - that CC be accessible to any and all young men who dream of a CC education. • From the beginning, it was our goal to build the Novi campus, without its cost impacting tuition. That must not change now! Please help us achieve that goal! 16
