Dear Friends,
The 2024-25 academic year has filled my heart with profound gratitude and joy – our Centennial year has truly been one to remember. Celebrating a century of Eastern University’s mission is not only a remarkable milestone; it is a powerful reflection of God’s faithfulness and the enduring strength of our vision.
As I reflect on the many blessings that have brought us to this historic moment, I am deeply grateful for our flourishing community. Over the past five years, Eastern’s enrollment has almost tripled, growing from approximately 3,000 in Fall 2019 to nearly 9,000 students in Fall 2024.
Other key highlights include our faith initiatives, campus renovations, the launch of new programs, and the expansion of our athletic teams and student organizations. The ongoing success of our A Time to Rise campaign, launched in May of 2024, has helped us raise the funding needed to sustain our growth and look toward a fruitful future. So far, we have raised $27M of our $30M goal, allowing us to complete the construction of Templeton Hall—the new home for our honors college and fine and performing arts spaces—as well as the renovation of our new state-of-the-art baseball field.
This past year has shown that real progress is fueled by the provision of God through people who believe in our mission and give their gifts, talents, and time to see it thrive. These people include the dedicated and generous trustees, alumni, donors, faculty, staff, and greater community. As we honor our rich legacy during this Centennial year, we eagerly look ahead to the promising future before us. We hope you’ll consider how you might continue to be part of this next chapter, whether through conversation, prayer, or financial support.
With prayer, praise, and gratitude,
Ronald A. Matthews President, Eastern University

Turning usiness Into Impact
HOW ONE ALUMNUS IS USING TOURISM TO TACKLE HOMELESSNESS AND DRIVE CHANGE
WHEN JONATHAN COLEMAN ’11 chose Eastern University’s MBA in International Economic Development, he wasn’t just preparing for a career; he was pursuing a vision that business could be a powerful tool to address global problems.
Today, Coleman serves as Co-CEO of the UnTours Foundation and CEO of UnTours travel company, blending entrepreneurial strategy with a mission for social change. For over 30 years, the Foundation has provided affordable capital to social
entrepreneurs worldwide, aligning purpose with profit.
“Tourism has enormous power to transform communities, either for good or for ill,” he explains. “We want it to be for good.”
That belief drives the Reset Tourism Fund, an UnTours Foundation initiative supporting small, sustainable tourism businesses. One example is Invisible Cities, a UK-based social enterprise that
trains people who’ve experienced homelessness to become tour guides. When the organization expanded, the Fund was key, and it brought Coleman to a launch event in Aberdeen with Prince William in attendance.
“Watching Prince William walk with a formerly homeless guide was unforgettable,” Coleman says. “It was incredibly moving to know my work helped make that happen.”
“
Tourism has enormous power to transform communities, either for good or for ill. We want it to be for good.
Soon after, Coleman was invited by Prince Harry’s Travalyst initiative to a summit in Shanghai. Though the UnTours Foundation was among the smallest organizations present, its advocacy for small tourism businesses was vital. “We were there to represent those who usually don’t get a seat at the table.”
It’s the kind of impact Coleman envisioned at Eastern, drawn to a program at the intersection of business and mission.
“If I can help direct resources toward people and ideas that make the world better, that’s a legacy I’m proud of.”
A Milestone of Hope
THE FIRST PRISON EDUCATION PROGRAM COMMENCEMENT
This past academic year, Eastern University celebrated a historic milestone: the first-ever commencement ceremony for graduates of the Prison Education Program (PEP) at SCI Chester. Twenty-two students crossed the stage, earning their Associate of Arts degrees—each step a powerful symbol of transformation, hope, and academic achievement.
22 students crossed the stage.
The ceremony was a full expression of Eastern’s mission in action, as faculty, families, and friends gathered to honor the graduates. The graduation was planned and supported in part by the graduates themselves, including the production of a video highlighting the program’s impact on their lives.
This inaugural commencement is more than a celebration of degrees earned; it’s a testament to the power of education to restore purpose and create possibility. With a new cohort already in place and additional programs underway, Eastern’s commitment to bringing transformative education into overlooked spaces continues to grow.

Fine Arts Highlights
Music
In Fall 2024, the Music Department moved into its new home in Fowler Hall with modern rehearsal spaces, classrooms, and studios. The year featured performances at festivals and events, the Marching Band, Drumline, and Color Guard’s first full season, Dr. Steven Ford’s Centennial Song, and new offerings in music technology and sacred music to drive growth.
Dance
Dance students and alumni performed with professional companies at Philadelphia’s Fringe Festival and other venues, while also presenting original work at Eastern showcases, concerts, and chapel services. They held master classes, gained exposure at the
ACDA Conference, and expanded outreach with high school visits, lectures, and membership in the National Honor Society for Dance Arts.
Theatre
Eastern’s Theatre Department showcased bold creativity with two student-written productions—The Inside Out and Life in Death; the comedy Noises Off; and the award-winning musical A Year with Frog and Toad. A spring playwriting festival highlighted student work, while the BA in Theatre introduced new concentrations in Performance, Directing, and Musical Theatre in preparation for accreditation.
Templeton Hall
RENOVATION & EXPANSION
THROUGHOUT THIS YEAR, work continued on the renovation and expansion of Templeton Hall, one of the main emphases of Eastern’s A Time To Rise campaign. Formerly Workman Hall, this historic building was renamed Templeton Hall to honor the late Drs. John and Josephine Templeton and will become a permanent home for the Templeton Honors College and a hub for the fine and performing arts.
Templeton Hall will provide an inspiring environment for learning, creativity, and community through beautifully designed seminar-style classrooms, recital and performance spaces, a dedicated art gallery, collaborative gathering spaces, and more.
Made possible by the generosity of our donors and a shared vision, Templeton Hall is more than just a building—it’s a bold investment in shaping whole persons through intellect, imagination, and purpose.
Over the course of the 2024-25 academic year, we celebrated as we watched the external facade of the building take shape, anticipating its opening to students in Fall 2025 and the transformative learning experiences that will take place inside its walls.
Integrating AI
COMMUNITY VOICES
As artificial intelligence continues to transform industries, Eastern University is thoughtfully and proactively integrating this technology across our academic landscape.
In this section, leaders from key disciplines share how AI is being woven into curriculum, operations, and strategic vision. Their insights reflect Eastern’s commitment to preparing students not just to navigate the future but to lead it with wisdom, innovation, and integrity.
Dr. Christa Lee-Chuvala, Dean of the College of Business & Leadership
“AI is shaping every aspect of business, and future leaders must be prepared to apply it strategically. For the past two years, the College of Business and Leadership has introduced students to AI through hands-on exercises. Now, with our MBA’s forthcoming AI Business Strategy concentration, immersive simulations, and industry insights, students are on a path to becoming ethical, effective, transformational change agents.”
Dr. Greg Longo, Assistant Dean for the School of Mathematics & Computational Sciences
“Eastern’s School of Mathematics and Computational Sciences prepares students for a future where AI is a critical part of their academic and professional lives. By integrating AI tools into courses and emphasizing fundamentals in math, coding, and problem solving, we help students use AI ethically and practically. We are also excited to launch our new Master’s in Applied AI in Spring 2026.”
Rebecca Gidjunis, Assistant Provost for Academic Operations
“Eastern University is embracing AI as a tool for innovation, providing secure platforms like Google Gemini and AgentForce, launching a Faculty AI Working Group, and hiring an Assistant Director of AI and Automation Solutions. Looking ahead, we are embedding AI into general education, developing coursework, and exploring studentAI collaboration models grounded in ethics to prepare our community to lead in a digital world.”
Cultivating Community

Eastern’s foundation in Christ-centered values enables us to forge deeper connections within our community and inspire our students for lives of faith, reason, and justice.

meaningful growth of its inaugural Master of Theological Studies (MTS) cohort in Matanzas, Cuba. These 20 dedicated students have deepened their theological education and strengthened their leadership within their churches and communities across Cuba. Through rigorous study and spiritual formation, students are being equipped to serve with theological insight, cultural sensitivity, and pastoral effectiveness. The program is rooted in partnership with International Ministries of American Baptist Churches USA and the
Fellowship of Baptist Churches in Cuba. It offers hope and fosters renewal for communities across Cuba.
Our students regularly engage in fellowship, shared learning, and ministry practice that enrich their faith and prepare them to lead with excellence. As we reflect on this past year, we celebrate how this cohort is already beginning to shape ministry and community life in Cuba, advancing God’s work in transformative ways.
Flourishing Employees
INVESTING IN GROWTH: PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT WEEK
This past May, Eastern University’s faculty and staff gathered for our annual Planning and Development Week, an essential time dedicated to learning, fellowship, and personal and professional growth. This university-wide initiative reflects our ongoing commitment to professional development and institutional planning, centered on how we can better serve our students and each other.
The schedule featured a rich variety of sessions, from practical workshops like Budgeting 101 to leadership panels designed for current and aspiring managers and more. Faith formation and self-care topics also offered space for reflection and spiritual growth.
New this year was a shared community service opportunity, bringing our commitment to justice into action beyond campus. Fellowship moments like Employee Chapel, the Staff Council’s end-ofyear event, a town hall, and the employee awards luncheon helped strengthen our community ties.
I always find Professional Development Week to be a valuable experience, and each year I walk away with new insights into different areas of the university. This year, I attended the Performance Management session, which offered a fresh perspective on effective supervision and leadership. The presentation was wellstructured and created a space for supervisors to exchange ideas and ask thoughtful questions.
- Emily Sanders ’ 19, MBA ’ 26, Associate Director of Graduate & Online Recruitment and Enrollment

Funding Strategically
DAY OF GIVING: A CENTENNIAL SUCCESS
Eastern’s Centennial Day of Giving was a remarkable celebration of community, generosity, and impact. Thanks to the incredible support of alumni, friends, faculty, staff, and supporters, we raised over $100,000 and increased our number of donors by 40% over last year. We successfully unlocked the $25,000 matching gift from an alum for the Eagle’s Essentials Food & Hygiene Pantry, a vital resource that provides students with essential items, supporting their health and well-being. Together, we honored our 100-year legacy while investing in a flourishing future, demonstrating the power of our shared mission in action.
A TIME TO RISE CAMPAIGN
As Eastern University continues to celebrate its 100th year, the momentum of our $30 million A Time to Rise campaign continues to grow. This comprehensive fundraising initiative, launched as a key part of our fiveyear strategic plan, has already raised $27 million through the generosity of alumni, donors, and friends.
From modernizing learning environments and updating buildings to renovating Templeton Hall and revitalizing the baseball field and other athletic facilities, these gifts are transforming our campus.
Together, we are shaping a space and a future where Faith, Reason, and Justice can flourish. There’s still time to rise with us. Whether you share your time, talents, or
financial support, your involvement is vital to fulfilling this vision and building a flourishing future for Eastern University.

COMMUNITY VOICES: CAMPOLO FELLOWS
The Campolo Center for Ministry is one program that greatly relies on the support of donors and friends of Eastern University. The program invites students to integrate their faith with community engagement, personal growth, and leadership. The Campolo Fellowship is meant to provide a unique experience for students that transforms them from the inside out, deepening their sense of purpose, sharpening their academic focus, and equipping them to serve the world God created. From partnering with local churches to leading global service trips and justice pilgrimages, the Campolo Fellows Program carries the mission of Christ into communities around the world—forming not only scholars but compassionate leaders ready to serve, heal, and bring hope.
Being a Campolo Fellow has opened up my perspective in ways that I am forever changed by. One highlight of the program for me was the pilgrimage to the MexicoTexas border. That trip transformed me—it gifted me with a sense of gratitude that I am meant to be here for a time such as this. I guess God was right: Eastern was where I was meant to be.
