Mississippi State University continues an amazing 140-year journey marked by exceptional education, groundbreaking research, and unparalleled service. At this juncture, the opportunities are endless for alumni and friends to embrace the future and help our university capitalize upon impact after impact, as gifts accelerate our strides.

A

At Mississippi State, excellence in higher education is our priority. However, we don’t stop there. Our quest is to join the best public universities nationwide. And to realize this quest, we will strive to help our university flourish and serve a diverse population who will pursue their education here and leave their mark beyond campus. Mississippi State is gaining trajectory among the nation’s most influential institutions—with global, diverse, and top-tier strides. And, we are accomplishing this with the endeavors of our people—distinguished faculty, dedicated staff, and talented and creative students. Infinite Impact: The Mississippi State University Campaign allows our university to continue the longstanding tradition of honoring our strong heritage as a land-grant institution poised for further growth. Infinite Impact gifts inspire our students to learn more, motivate our faculty to teach with vigor, and challenge our entire institution

to better serve our state, our nation, and our world. Your loyalty, pride, and passion are evident in our success as you invest in social, political, and economic impacts made possible through education that will shape tomorrow’s world. At present, more than 22,000 MSU students benefit from the teaching and mentoring endeavors of some 1,400 faculty members who are integral parts of the university's campuses—and many other personnel who touch the lives of pre-school and kindergarten children, elementary and high school students, college-age students, adult learners, and others who benefit from distance education at various points in their lives. We provide lifelong education at Mississippi State, and it all starts through the lives we touch—day in and day out. Our supporters believe Mississippi State is one of the nation’s most important institutions and worthy of a long-term investment in its work. Our university's drive to have an impact is evident in all aspects of life, from earning an education to

building a career and starting a family, to serving our community and teaching others. Mississippi State is able to maintain its stellar reputation of recruiting outstanding students and retaining exceptional faculty because of Infinite Impact contributions. Through faculty, the inspiration for creativity and the pursuit of knowledge begins at our university. It is the extra mile they take in the classrooms and laboratories, the positive influence they exude over their students, and ultimately the impact they create from their actions that helps advance the stature of the university. It is often said that a university is only as good as its faculty. At Mississippi State, we are working to elevate our faculty base across the university and provide them with the state-of-the-art tools, technology, and facilities they need to create a learning environment that is second to none.

faculty, in particular those serving as prestigious chairholders and professors, help bring external funds to our university. In turn, these funds help us attract additional support from legislative and corporate and foundation sources. Mississippi State's standard of excellence has attracted the attention of many outstanding researchers and faculty members. However, as national and international leaders in their fields, private support ensures not only the retention of these educators at our university, but also their ability to pioneer innovative opportunities that will have lasting impacts on society for generations to come. Thank you for igniting further impact in our faculty. Their mission is shared by all at Mississippi State, and their impact is ever evolving because of your belief in their work. It is your gifts today

that create immediate impact, and those gifts for tomorrow that can create perpetual impact. With both, anything is possible. In this sixth publication of our Infinite Impact annual report campaign series, the MSU Foundation proudly features some of Mississippi State’s premier faculty from the university’s eight academic colleges. These faculty have allowed us to share their successes in grateful appreciation of the impact that private gifts have over the course of their Mississippi State careers. By conveying special stories of exceptional faculty, the MSU Foundation hopes to translate the pride that passes between our people and our contributors who support their endeavors. Because of our collective efforts, success, discovery, outreach, globalization, and experience are all infinitely possible through Mississippi State.

The impact of Brandi Karisch


The Impact of FAC ULT Y

Mississippi has nearly 930,000 head of cattle across some 16,000 farms. With mild winters that enable year-round grazing, the Magnolia State is a haven for cattle producers. However, the summer heat and varying production and management systems often create challenges, causing producers throughout the Southeast to seek assistance. That’s where Brandi Karisch intervenes.

K

Karisch, the Milton Sundbeck Endowed Professor in Southeastern Cattle Management in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, has a proven track record of excellence in research and problem-solving in forage-based beef cattle production. While her strong background and extensive experience in the industry have branded her as a beef expert, it is Karisch’s expertise in people that has positioned her as a leader among Southeastern producers. “Getting to see the results of my research and figuring out the different ways I can help producers really drives my work,” said Karisch. “I love being able to offer different solutions and see how they are applied in the real world and how they work for producers on a day-to-day basis.” As the inaugural Sundbeck professor, Karisch is also the first faculty member to hold an endowed position in the college’s Department of Animal

and Dairy Sciences. Milton Sundbeck, founder and owner of West Point-based Southern Ionics Inc., beef cattle producer, and owner of Town Creek Farm, established the professorship in 2017 to acknowledge meritorious faculty who excel in the teaching and research of topics impacting beef cattle in the Southeast. Karisch, who has been at Mississippi State since 2011, is thankful for the opportunities the professorship presents, particularly in empowering the Extension Service’s efforts to address the needs of small producers and enhance profitability throughout the beef industry. “The Sundbeck Professorship provides additional support to expand on producer-focused research that is not necessarily tied to a specific grant or focus, but is applicable to cattle producers in our area,” said Karisch. A native of Donaldsonville, Louisiana, where sugar cane and cattle reign, Karisch graduated from

Louisiana State University with a bachelor’s degree in animal science in 2005. She then headed west to continue her studies in beef cattle nutrition and cow-calf systems at Texas A&M University, where she earned master’s and doctoral degrees in 2007 and 2011, respectively. Karisch became familiarized with MSU as a graduate student. She was hosting an exhibit at the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association when a Mississippi cattle farmer from Macon approached her and began discussing job opportunities at Mississippi State. Although she had not visited the MSU campus and knew little about the job, Karisch decided to take a chance, and the rest is history. “He was very encouraging and made me feel comfortable about applying for the job,” said Karisch. “When I came to Mississippi State, it just felt right. There’s such a small town, community feeling here, but MSU still offers the opportunity of being part of a large land-grant university with meaningful,

MSU has been a good fit for me . O boots-on-the-ground types of research. It has been a good fit for me.” Karisch regularly communicates research findings to producers in the form of programs and short courses that cover topics including health diagnostics, feed sources and nutrition, regulations and alternative strategies for antibiotic use, artificial insemination, and bull selection, among others. She also established a program aimed at female beef cattle farmers, highlighting handling techniques and other essential skills. “A big part of the Extension Service is translating campus-based research to producers and others who can benefit from it,” said Karisch. “It helps me feel connected in the state and on the farms and keeps me grounded to what’s going on in the real world.” Beyond the state, Karisch hopes to expand Mississippi State’s current outreach to an international level, while also growing the university’s reputation as the “go-to” place for cattle research. “Our focus right now is on helping producers in the Southeast, but many places around the world with big cattle markets have climates very similar to ours in Mississippi,” she said. “We have the potential and the resources to become a global leader in grassbased beef cattle research and information, and I want to play a big part in making that happen.” Through the collaboration and support of individuals and organizations who recognize the benefits of such work, Karisch and others in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences are pursuing transformative research to assist the caretakers of one of Mississippi’s largest industries and a chief food source for a growing world.


College of architecture, art and design

The impact of

Jacob Gines

Mississippi State University benefits from two of Jacob Gines' passions–designing and teaching. As an assistant professor in the College of Architecture, Art and Design (CAAD), Gines suspends reality in his classroom and places great emphasis on exploration, critical thinking, and innovation as he guides his students throughout the creative process.


The Impact of FAC ULT Y

A

A desire to further his career in academia led Gines to join the onlyaccredited School of Architecture offering a professional architecture degree in Mississippi, bringing him across the country from his alma mater—the University of Utah in Salt Lake City, Utah, where he earned both a Bachelor of Science in Architectural Studies and a Master of Architecture—to Mississippi State University. Before officially joining MSU in 2013, Gines also worked as a senior associate and designer for the Salt Lake City-based architecture firm, Method Studio, where he currently serves as vice president of research and design. He earlier founded Gines Design Workshop + Consulting which continues to be a creative outlet for him and allows him the ability to practice a very specific design-based style of architecture. Although Gines independently consults, he is firmly rooted at Mississippi State. “I’m pleased that I never left academics after graduating with my degrees,” said Gines. “And I’m also glad that I still maintain an active and thriving architectural practice. These two worlds, coupled together, make me a better teacher and a better practitioner.” He continued, “I’m incredibly grateful that MSU cultivates an environment of learning and creativity allowing me to have the best of both worlds.” Gines teaches upper-level architectural design studios and building technology courses specifically

for architecture majors—striving to instill passion and professionalism in both audiences. “I love to share with my students my knowledge of the professional practice of architecture, but I also enjoy helping my students suspend certain realities so they can consider ideas the profession might view as too risky or unproven. For instance, considering a hypothetical design for a 20-story all-wood, mass timber building in Manhattan, New York,” Gines said. “Building with highly engineered wood products like cross-laminated timber allows us to increase the inherent structural properties of wood, so we can build taller—while still addressing fundamental health and life safety issues.” The School of Architecture is at the forefront of construction education as Gines collaborates with fellow faculty, including those within the Department of Sustainable Bio Products in the MSU College of Forest Resources. Together, they help promote mass timber as a renewable, viable option for construction, while enhancing the value of forests and forest products in Mississippi. Of late, Gines has helped students in his fourthyear architecture wood-based design studio with innovative plans showcasing mid-rise wood buildings. “Our goal becomes to promote and construct mass timber architecture to enhance communities and provide long-term positive impacts for our cities and citizens,” said Gines. “Mississippi is at the center of the wood basket of the world, and we have an

amazing history of building with wood in our state— positioning us perfectly to be leaders and innovators in mass timber.” Gines' fourth-year studio is known as the Timber Innovations for Mississippi Buildings Reimagined or TIMB(R) Studio and its design-work has been supported by the Mississippi Forestry Foundation for the past several years. Specific endeavors of the TIMB(R) Studio have also been supported by the internationally recognized nonprofit Sustainable Forestry Initiative Inc. and Weyerhaeuser, among other regional industry partners. “The TIMB(R) Studio is focused on educating and training a generation of students to become the mass timber architects of tomorrow,” said Gines. “There are industry stakeholders, researchers, investors, and forestry professionals that are very interested in the work of our talented students who participate in this studio—and these contributors are incredible advocates and supporters for the reputation we are building.” Additionally, Gines has effectively acquired other grants, including an MSU Schillig Special Teaching Grant for the design and fabrication of “The Repository” materials library within the Bob and Kathy Luke Library in Giles Hall, home of CAAD. The Repository was developed and constructed by his students to showcase an assortment of building materials such as wood, concrete, stone, metal, and glass. The shelving units are constructed with

This gives our students invaluable exposure to real materials and their tactile properties,” explained Gines. Beyond the classroom and studio environment, Gines’ students participate in eye-opening field trips each fall semester that are for some the first time they’ve left Mississippi. Students enrolled in his design studio embark on a week-long adventure, gaining exposure to iconic architects and buildings—journeying to places like Boston, Massachusetts; New York, New York; and Seattle, Washington. For 2018, the trip included Chicago, Illinois for 40 students who visited buildings designed by legendary American architects. “It is imperative and essential to their development as architects that our students participate in these field trips because they are not only exposed to great architecture, but to people, places, and cultures that broaden their vision and deepen their understanding,” said Gines. MSU continues to present itself as unique and alluring which proves beneficial for Gines who loves pushing boundaries for his students to learn and research. “I love teaching architecture students because they are some of the most dedicated and creative students that MSU has to offer,” Gines said. “Most of my students have established great careers in architecture—they graduate very prepared, and they get noticed. Ultimately, their success elevates my success and that of our entire university.”

Dawe was recruited as department head in 2016, and he has relished the role as he works to advance its reputation as one of the university’s top research generating departments. For his accomplishments and leadership stature, Dawe was named the first endowed professor in the College of Arts and Sciences, the institution’s largest academic unit. As the inaugural Dr. Donald L. Hall Distinguished Professor, a position made possible with an endowment created by its namesake, Dawe has achieved an excellent balance between teaching and research in classroom and laboratory environments that extends far beyond the Mississippi State campus. “It is an honor to hold this professorship saluting the vision and generosity of Donald Hall and to have the means through the endowment to further my passion for discovery,” said Dawe. He continued, “Endowed positions at universities are great vehicles for cutting-edge research and pursuing specific ideas. These named chairs and professorships allow the flexibility to test new ideas or explore new research areas, making the discovery cycle that much quicker. They’re also great for the competitiveness of the university and the American research infrastructure.” The generous gift from Mississippi native Hall creates an immeasurable impact as it acknowledges an esteemed faculty member in Dawe and furthers

the groundbreaking work of the department and the College of Arts and Sciences. Additionally, the endowed faculty position allows the university to provide students with access to a great professor and researcher who can challenge and mentor them extensively during their campus studies. In endowing the professorship, 1962 pre-medicine graduate Hall honors the former MSU professors who impacted him on his path to become a boardcertified doctor of ophthalmology. In holding the position, Dawe acknowledged, “It’s not all about the prestige of an endowed chair for me, but it definitely revolves around what the endowment earnings accomplish. Endowments certainly build a compelling case for private gifts because they can increase the draw for additional support from other sources.” Over his career, Dawe has twice received major funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF) for individual and collaborative research projects on chestnut blight, the disease that almost eradicated the American chestnut. Historically one of the most important trees in the eastern United States and a great resource for humans and wildlife, this former forest icon is now reduced to very sporadic occurrences as an understory shrub following the loss of an estimated four billion trees between 1900 and 1950. Dawe’s primary research now focuses on the biology of this and other plant pathogenic fungi, particularly the molecular interactions of the

pathogens and their hosts. He has served on grant review panels for the NSF and the U.S. Department of Agriculture and is also a member and former chair of the USDA Multistate Research Project NE-1333, which is focused on management of the American chestnut and its pathogens. Dawe earned a Bachelor of Science in microbiology from Sheffield University in his native England, and he earned a master’s in biotechnology and Ph.D. in cellular, molecular, and developmental biology from the University of Tennessee-Knoxville, with postdoctoral work at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey. Dawe joined MSU from New Mexico State University in Las Cruces, New Mexico, where he was associate head of the biology department. He earlier was a senior scientist in the Center for Agricultural Biotechnology at the University of Maryland. Dawe is firmly rooted in Mississippi and continues to thrive at Mississippi State. He is not complacent as he charts the course for the Department of Biological Sciences. Within the department, there are over 1,200 undergraduate majors and 55 graduate students working on research-based Master of Science and Ph.D. studies, all advised and mentored by 28 faculty. Dawe said the MSU department is proud of its faculty’s continued success “in obtaining research support from a variety of agencies, even as federal funding rates have been cut dramatically.” To be able

My endowed professorship helps stimulate discovery . to receive awards, he added, “in this climate is further evidence that biological sciences at Mississippi State competes with the very best programs anywhere. We are inspired by the continued success of our graduate and undergraduate students as they transition to further degrees, research programs, and employment, across the country and worldwide. The continued successes of faculty and students are both very connected to each other, and they are critical to raising the profile and stature of the Department of Biological Sciences from coast to coast and internationally.” Although administrative duties take precedence, Dawe recruits faculty members and ensures students are studying and researching alongside professors and instructors who will challenge them to succeed. “Private support can set our department and our college on a trajectory for the future. It is with dynamic faculty that dedicated and creative students are willing to go the distance,” said Dawe. “Alumni and friends are often the catalysts for success with their involvement and support, and our department is determined to take that support and produce great results by providing great opportunities.”


College of BUSINESS

The impact of Merrill Warkentin At first glance, there may not be many similarities between Merrill Warkentin and former NFL wide receiver and Mississippi native Jerry Rice. But when it comes to work ethic, the two share many qualities. Staying true to the idea that “success breeds success,” it seems fitting that Warkentin finds Rice’s tireless commitment and drive inspiring.


The Impact of FAC ULT Y

“I’m intrigued by people who achieve more than what you expect,” said Warkentin, who is the James J. Rouse Endowed Professor of Information Systems in the College of Business at Mississippi State University. “People didn’t expect Jerry Rice to become one of the greatest football players of all time, but he did because he outworked everyone—he never took a day off.” Similarly, Warkentin is motivated to continuously grow his career and contributions to the field of information systems. Having published more than 300 manuscripts, including almost 90 peer-reviewed journal articles and 7 books, Warkentin’s work has been cited over 14,000 times, making him the second most cited MSU professor and one of the top cited information systems scholars of all time. In 2017, Warkentin was one of only five scholars worldwide to receive the Outstanding Service Award from the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP). The following year, he became the first person in the state of Mississippi to earn the prestigious honor of Distinguished Scientist by the oldest and largest professional society for computer sciences, the Association of Computing Machinery (ACM).

Warkentin has served as a visiting professor or invited speaker at numerous conferences, seminars, and universities in North America, Europe and Asia, and he holds leadership positions in several major professional organizations including the IFIP Working Group on Information Systems Security Research, which he co-founded in 2008. Despite an outstanding list of achievements and ranking in the top 20 among his peers by the Association for Information Systems over the past three years (2015-2017), Warkentin believes he is not at the top of his career yet. “My father worked hard and taught me that we are all fortunate and owe a great deal,” said Warkentin. “I’ve had to work hard to achieve in academia, where your pedigree is everything, but I constantly see opportunities for growth and my todo list keeps getting longer.” A native of Lincoln, Nebraska, Warkentin is a three-time graduate of the University of NebraskaLincoln, holding bachelor’s and master’s degrees in economics and a doctorate in management information systems. As a child, Warkentin’s love for knowledge earned him the nickname “little professor.” Even now, as an adult, Warkentin continues to share his passion for learning with students and colleagues.

“It’s easy to work hard at what you’re doing when you love your work and look forward to coming in every day,” said Warkentin, who particularly enjoys working with students and seeing the positive impacts a quality education has on their lives. “It’s important to me because they’re like my kids. It’s rewarding to see them succeed.” Created by a gift from alumnus James Rouse and his wife, Julia, of Suwanee, Georgia, the James J. Rouse Endowed Professorship enables Warkentin to advance research and collaborative engagements, while also providing valuable experience for students. The esteem associated with the Rouse Professorship also helps Warkentin bring more visibility through his lectures and publications and helps him secure significant professional placements for his doctoral students. “The reputation and recognition of an endowed position like the Rouse Professorship opens more opportunities for interesting and specialized research largely because it shows confidence and significance in my work,” said Warkentin. “This is helpful when I am applying for external grants and other important resources to grow our capabilities.” Warkentin’s specific research interest lies in the unique behaviors and interactions of people and technology. He is currently working with scholars

It's easy to work hard when you love your work. around the world to study and develop a more effective form of computer security training to better combat cybersecurity threats and privacy issues. While his research accommodates for differences in individual users, so too does his teaching method. “I’ve always been interested in the different tactics that motivate people,” said Warkentin. “That’s why I have an individualized approach to teaching—because no two students are the same, and they all learn differently.” Each year, Warkentin connects students to local businesses or government agencies from across Mississippi to study and offer solutions to real world problems. This allows students to interact with business leaders and build real, useful systems that are not inhibited by a laboratory or standard curriculum guidelines. The participating organizations benefit from the services provided, and students benefit from the firsthand exposure that gives them insight into their individual skillsets and strengths and adds meaningful work to their resumes. Private support for endowed positions incentivizes top scholars like Warkentin to come and stay at Mississippi State. The contributions and academic achievements of these dedicated faculty members enhance the reputations of their colleges. As Warkentin employs his determination and love of learning to reach greater heights in his career, he is also instilling those traits in students, positioning them as future leaders and further empowering the ongoing success of Mississippi State University.


College of Education

The impact of Kasee Stratton-Gadke Kasee Stratton-Gadke is leading the charge at Mississippi State University and positively impacting lives. She is one of only two psychologists in the world to study the condition known as CHARGE Syndrome and its impact on families, and her life-altering research is based in the university’s College of Education.


The Impact of FAC ULT Y

A

Although most people have never heard of CHARGE Syndrome, Stratton-Gadke compassionately explains it to anyone who will listen as she works to create awareness in the state, the nation, and around the world. A rare genetic condition which occurs in only one in 10,000 births, CHARGE Syndrome can result in multiple congenital anomalies and a host of life-threatening birth defects. The syndrome currently is the leading cause of deafness and blindness in children. Stratton-Gadke brought her desire to help children with CHARGE when she joined Mississippi State as an assistant professor in 2014. She was initially attracted to the university because she “could begin something that might never be established at the land-grant institution—the Bulldog CHARGE Syndrome Research Laboratory.” Today, the MSU lab and another lab located at Central Michigan University are the only clinicallybased CHARGE labs in the world, while a third lab in The Netherlands is genetic-based, making it more expensive to operate. “MSU has provided me with two missions—raise awareness of CHARGE and improve the quality of life for all involved,” said Stratton-Gadke. “When I created the lab, I wanted it to be an awareness campaign based out of research since about two thirds of CHARGE cases are due to a CHD7 mutation

on Chromosome 8.” MSU research teams led by Stratton-Gadke are uncovering breakthroughs in treatment of CHARGE and prevention of behavior concerns, while providing crucial support resources for parents and helping physicians around the globe gain awareness so symptoms can be detected and addressed earlier. However, more research is needed. “In Mississippi alone, six identified families have an offspring with CHARGE Syndrome, and with only one medical center in the state, these families need counsel to understand their options since it is hard for them to afford and obtain treatment,” she said. Stratton-Gadke shares her passion for CHARGE Syndrome and other research with her husband and fellow MSU associate professor Dan Gadke, founder and director of the university’s Autism and Developmental Disabilities Clinic (ADDC). The campus clinic was created as an expansion of MSU’s School Psychology Services Center in the Department of Counseling, Education, Psychology, and Foundations, and Stratton-Gadke co-directs its activities. In addition, Stratton-Gadke serves the Mississippi Autism Board created by the Mississippi Legislature to issue and regulate state licensing for professionals in applied behavior analysis—or ABA—a therapy proven to reduce challenging behaviors and increase skill development for symptoms associated with autism and

developmental disabilities, including interventions for children with CHARGE. A Pittsford, Michigan native, StrattonGadke first began to entertain ideas of working with CHARGE Syndrome while pursuing her undergraduate degree at Central Michigan University. The other lone fellow psychologist in the world researching CHARGE Syndrome is located there—he is the father of a child with CHARGE Syndrome—and Stratton-Gadke mentored with him in the only other clinically-based CHARGE lab. From Central Michigan University, StrattonGadke earned three degrees—a bachelor’s in psychology and youth studies, a master’s in school psychology, and a Ph.D. in school psychology. She also completed a pre-doctoral internship and postdoctoral fellowship at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and the Kennedy Krieger Institute, both in Baltimore, Maryland. Thus far, Stratton-Gadke’s research is primarily supported by the nonprofit CHARGE Syndrome Foundation with its 25-year reputation of championing the lifelong potential of people with the syndrome through outreach, education, and research. Additionally, research through the ADDC benefits from the Gertrude C. Ford Foundation, founded for the purpose of supporting religious, charitable, scientific, literary and educational activities, and the humane treatment of animals.

I wanted a career that ultimately helped people . Private support such as this is needed to help make travel and research associated with studying the CHARGE syndrome possible. “Families of these children often cannot come here due to significant medical complications associated with CHARGE. Only by journeying to them can I make myself accessible to those willing to actively participate in my research—those who almost always have a vested interest in better understanding the syndrome,” said Stratton-Gadke, who most recently attended an Australian CHARGE Conference. “Gifts make this critical travel possible and provide me an opportunity to collect essential data and gain firsthand knowledge of what their individual lives are like.” Beyond her work with families, Stratton-Gadke creates learning opportunities for MSU students who research alongside her. “I’ve always known I wanted a career that would ultimately help people, and I was torn between becoming a medical doctor and a licensed psychologist,” she said. “Once I realized psychology gave me a greater chance to help children with unique presentations, I knew it was the right career for me, and I hope to inspire students to explore this option.” And Stratton-Gadke has taken that career choice and made it her life’s vocation. “I am fortunate and realize health is a gift, and I am determined to help these children and their families experience hope and accomplishment in their lives,” she said. “Just by identifying their condition can we begin to counsel and connect them with support services.” In the future, Stratton-Gadke will continue to wave the banner for CHARGE because “MSU allows me to remain dedicated to CHARGE and helps me provide critical assistance for these children and the families who love and support them.”

The impact of Lesley Strawderman In the James Worth Bagley College of Engineering’s McCain Building, the office of Lesley Strawderman features a portrait with a striking resemblance to her. Although Strawderman didn’t pose for the Bulldog with eyeglasses, she believes the character she has named “She-ra” manifests toughness, compassion, justice, and equality—all qualities she strives to possess.

“My students love the painting, and She-ra is a great conversation piece,” said Strawderman. “At MSU, there is a very personal atmosphere, and it’s all about people relating to people on some level and building a better engineering environment within and outside the university—the portrait humanizes me to my students as a watchful Bulldog looking out for them.” In 2006, Strawderman brought her Midwestern values to the South as she joined the faculty of the James Worth Bagley College of Engineering as an assistant professor in the Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering. “The university meshed well with my values, and I knew this was where I wanted to teach and research and put down roots,” said Strawderman, a Wichita, Kansas native, who is now a professor. Although growing up Strawderman wanted to become a math teacher, she was always drawn to engineering since its applications and logistics were a natural fit for her. After earning a Bachelor of Science in industrial engineering from Kansas State University, she completed both a Master of Science and a Ph.D. in industrial engineering at Pennsylvania State University. Strawderman is a registered professional engineer in Mississippi and an active member of the Institute of Industrial and Systems Engineers and

the American Society for Engineering Educations’ Industrial Engineering division. Her published works have appeared in journals such as International Journal of Industrial Ergonomics, Accident Analysis and Prevention, and Computers and Industrial Engineering. Over her MSU career, Strawderman has proudly grown in her departmental responsibilities as undergraduate advising coordinator and most recently as the inaugural holder of the International Paper Chair. In the latter role, Strawderman recognizes the significance of private support in creating impact through the perpetually-endowed position. As a highlight of becoming holder, Strawderman traveled to International Paper (IP) corporate headquarters for an “MSU Day” where she was formally introduced. Since then, she has formed valuable connections with many IP corporate personnel, including some who are MSU alumni. “The introduction at International Paper was special, and I was surrounded by talented MSU graduates who share my pride in and connection to the company and the university,” said Strawderman. “My quality of teaching and research must stay at a high level to maintain the company’s good name because they have invested in me and in MSU.” Strawderman is known for performing effectively and efficiently in her position and that

aligns with her goals. Her research revolves around human factors and ergonomics—the study of people’s efficiency in their working environment. She covers topics such as transportation safety, human modeling, health care process improvement, consumer product design, and industrial safety. In her endeavors, Strawderman is entering her third year directing a National Science Foundation grant for an MSU-based program known as ASPIRE (Aerospace and Industrial Engineering Scholarship Program) that provides scholarships and mentoring for solidly-performing aerospace and industrial engineering majors selected as recipients. “ASPIRE helps create a pipeline for academic success and prepares students for the workplace.

Additionally, Strawderman is associated with U.S. Army and FedEx grants as part of her research assignment with the university’s Center for Advanced Vehicular Systems (CAVS). Founded in 2002, CAVS is a world-class technology development center committed to exploring solutions to complex problems, in areas such as autonomous vehicles, materials science, highperformance computing, advanced controls, and human-machine interaction. Specifically, Strawderman helps CAVS’s human-factors research

At the heart of Strawderman’s passion is always her students, whether she is teaching or advising and mentoring undergraduates enrolled through the department. Beyond that, she serves as faculty adviser for the MSU student chapter of the Society of Women Engineers, a national organization dedicated to helping females succeed as leaders and engineers. The MSU chapter assists with summer programs for differing ages, operating its activities with the generous corporate support of Chevron and Southern Company, among other contributors. “It’s an aspect of good citizenship to understand how we got to where we are and where we might be going,” said Strawderman. “Along with everything else I teach my students, I stress this message to them as well and greatly appreciate all support of our chapter which champions for women in the engineering fields.” For Strawderman, she will continue forging a pioneering path as a proud woman engineer and inaugural International Paper Chair as she sets a professional example that current and future engineering students can emulate. And she plans to remain a passionate and dedicated MSU faculty member for many years to come.

The impact of Bronson Strickland


The Impact of FAC ULT Y

Bronson Strickland has always been intrigued by nature and the outdoors. In eighth grade, after learning about professions in wildlife biology, he knew exactly what he wanted to do. Pursuing his childhood career goals, Strickland now employs his passion as the St. John Family Endowed Professor of Wildlife Management in the Mississippi State University College of Forest Resources.

I

“I am an infinitely curious person and have always enjoyed science, but I was never a fan of the ‘lab coat scenario’,” said Strickland. “When I learned I could become an ‘outdoor scientist’ and interact with nature every day, I was sold.” After earning a bachelor’s degree in wildlife biology from the University of Georgia, Strickland earned a master’s degree in range and wildlife management from Texas A&M-Kingsville. The Athens, Georgia native then moved to Starkville to pursue a research associate position with Mississippi State to help the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks analyze 20 years of data collected by its Deer Management Assistance Program. In 2005, Strickland completed his Ph.D. in forest resources with a concentration in wildlife ecology from MSU and accepted a full-time faculty position in the College of Forest Resources the following year. Despite leading a successful and wide-ranging

educational program in applied wildlife science for over a decade, Strickland said he never imagined having a career in academia. “Teaching is an evolved thing for me,” he said. “I’m an introvert by nature and had a hard time with public speaking. I just decided to jump in with both feet and now it’s one of my favorite things to do.” At MSU, Strickland has helped lead more than 70 workshops, assisting landowners with improved game management, been awarded over $3 million in external grants, and produced 46 peer-reviewed technical publications. He also collaborated with Steve Demarais, the Taylor Chair in Applied Big Game Research and Instruction, to create three smart phone applications for improved management of white-tailed deer, one of Mississippi’s most economically important game species. Strickland and Demarais work closely together as co-directors of the MSU Deer Ecology and Management Lab, one of the premier deer management research units in the nation. In 2017,

the pair began Deer University, a podcast to explain how individuals can use deer research to improve hunting and management experiences. The highly successful podcast has attracted listeners across 40 different countries. “You know you’re doing something pretty gratifying when you get feedback from a deer biologist in Finland,” Strickland said. “It’s great to have an international reach, but our main goal is to provide information that is relevant and meaningful to people here in Mississippi, like the St. Johns.” MSU alumni couple, Drew and Kathy St. John of Madison, are lifelong wildlife enthusiasts and conservationists. In 2016, they established the St. John Family Endowed Professorship in the Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Aquaculture to support a faculty member who would lead an educational program to assist landowners with better management of natural resources. Particularly aimed for a faculty member with demonstrated commitment to game management

It's gratifying to know my work will ensure a legacy. education on working landscapes, Strickland’s background made him the perfect candidate. Beyond the financial incentive and support for additional resources provided by the professorship, the endowment also ensures the sustainability of the particular charge and purpose for which it was created. As trends in science change, so too do the external funding opportunities, creating a shift in many university research positions away from foundational, practical discoveries to cutting-edge, theoretical science topics. “The mission of a land-grant university is to lay the groundwork and provide information that people can apply on their own landscapes, but the security of those types of research appointments is ultimately going away,” said Strickland. “The most important aspect of an endowed position is that it protects the program for which it was created in perpetuity.” Accordingly, Strickland is employing support from the St. John Family Professorship to expand and preserve wildlife education. Such efforts will ensure valuable resources are wellmanaged today and into the future. “It’s all about a legacy—the older you get, the more you start wondering what your legacy will be,” Strickland said. “The most gratifying thing for me is knowing that land will be managed more effectively in Mississippi because of the work that I and others have done, and that landowners, deer, and other wildlife species will benefit from the knowledge generated here at MSU.” Turning his childhood dream into reality, Strickland is using his passion for the outdoors to protect the diminishing natural environments and their inhabitants. Through this and many related and collaborative efforts, the College of Forest Resources and its patrons are not only maintaining favorable properties and game species, but also are preserving the timeless features and landscapes that are the cornerstone to Mississippi’s rich heritage.


College of veterinary medicine

The impact of David Smith


The Impact of FAC ULT Y

Growing up in Spring Valley, Ohio, a rural community where animal agriculture was a major contributor to the local economy, David Smith admits that he developed great respect for veterinarians, the medical professionals he most commonly encountered. Accordingly, he studied veterinary medicine and served in private practice for nine years before embarking on his current career as a university professor.

D

Despite transitioning into academia, Smith's work continues to stay true to his roots in the cattle industry. As the Dr. P. Mikell and Mary Cheek Hall Davis Endowed Professor in the College of Veterinary Medicine, Smith’s focus is on strengthening the economic well-being of cattle producers and the veterinarians that serve them. More specifically, his studies seek to discover how beef cattle production systems may be modified to improve the animals’ health, well-being and productivity while also benefiting human and environmental health. “An important challenge to Mississippi’s cattle industry is the health of the animals as they transition from one stage of production to the next,” said Smith, explaining that conditions for sickness peak as newly weaned calves are transported from the farm through marketing channels to the stocker or feedlot phases, causing a corresponding rise in antibiotic treatments. “My hope is to better

understand how we can manage cattle to minimize the occurrence of the most common bacterial disease to decrease antibiotic use and the risk for antimicrobial resistance.” Such issues facing the beef industry are not limited to Mississippi and the Southeast, but affect the entire global market. Accordingly, Smith is expanding veterinary education to an international level. Since 2015, he and Robert Wills, a fellow CVM professor, have made annual trips to China where they teach a two-week epidemiology course funded by the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences. “There is a need for training Chinese veterinarians in population medicine because it is not typically taught as part of their regular coursework,” Smith said. “We hope to help educate the future animal health decision leaders in China to be prepared to deal with different, important zoonotic diseases so they can address these issues at home before they reach other countries, including the United States. In a global economy this is more

important than ever.” Having 35 years of experience in cattle production systems, Smith also serves on important committees in both the American Association of Bovine Practitioners (AABP) and the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA). Through these commitments, he contributes to the oversight on antimicrobial use in animals and helps to define stewardship guidelines to aid in resistance prevention, while at the same time ensuring humane management practices. In 2015, the AABP honored Smith with its Award of Excellence, recognizing his dedication to his work as the “expert consulted by the experts.” Similarly, that same dedication to learning, community, and research led former longtime CVM faculty member Mikell Davis and his wife, Mary, to endow the professorship Smith now holds. As cattle producers, the Davises share Smith’s enthusiasm in educating the next generation of veterinarians and ensuring the viability of the state’s cattle industry.

Teamwork is vital to my success in teaching and research. “This is more than a job for me; it is a chance to be part of a team with an important mission,” said Smith. “Mississippi State’s progress in population medicine is a strength that sets us apart from other colleges. I want to continue to contribute to this program and make it a persistent strength.” In addition to enhancing field-based programs and applied research that benefit beef health and reproduction systems, the Dr. P. Mikell and Mary Cheek Hall Davis Endowed Professorship also seeks to grow a signature educational program to foster students to become future leaders in the industry. “We have good students here at MSU, and I enjoy working with them, particularly during their clinical years,” said Smith. “We want to prepare them to serve rural clientele, be leaders in their communities, and be a part of helping keep these small businesses alive and thriving.” Smith leverages support from the professorship to give students greater exposure to research and population medicine and obtain better insight to the industry through firsthand experiences. Smith and his colleagues created a required clinical rotation in population medicine for third-year veterinary students. By getting students out in the field with farmers and involved in the college’s unique shelter medicine program, Smith hopes to encourage them to think more holistically about animal lifestyles and environments, and the impact human decisions can have on them. “It helps students tremendously to learn to think on their feet while working with animal caregivers and also to take new approaches to solving problems of animal health and productivity,” Smith said. “The food animal industries are changing, and we need to train new critical thinking veterinarians to be a part of it.”

MSU Foundation 2018 Board of Directors 106 : Mississippi State University FO UN DAT I O N


The Impact of FAC ULT Y: Financials

There is no way to convey our appreciation for alumni and friends who continually place Mississippi State University among their charitable giving priorities. Because of generous support, fiscal year 2018 surpassed $102.5 million —marking our fifth consecutive year historically exceeding $100 million and thereby bolstering Infinite Impact.

T

The “Bulldog billion” goal of Infinite Impact is within our grasp and steady years of generous philanthropic support are driving us toward that unreached plateau. We greatly appreciate your willingness to join with us in pursuing $1 billion to propel the trajectory of our land-grant institution upward. As you examine this publication, remember it is you and your fellow alumni and friends who give generously that enable us to reach these numbers, and we thank you for your impact. Every donor listed in this annual report has honored our university with his or her commitment to our mission and vision. When you invest in a student, a faculty member, a program, or research and service endeavors, you are truly making an investment in Mississippi—the state where many of us earned our degrees and forged legacies, becoming positive examples in our lives and careers for those who follow our paths. Essentially, we are better because of Mississippi State.

Advancing Mississippi State is a goal of all associated with the institution—administration, faculty and staff, alumni and friends, and corporations. In the coming years, we at the MSU Foundation will strive to better serve you and Mississippi State as we work to assist the institution in realizing its goal of becoming one of the best overall universities in the nation. This annual report has been prepared to provide you with additional confidence in how the MSU Foundation manages and stewards your gifts. Please allow us to thank our MSU Foundation board of directors. These individuals voluntarily work as catalysts for progress and help us communicate and promote the larger picture of what Mississippi State can accomplish with the impact of private gifts. Fiscal year 2018 was a year of transition for the MSU Foundation. Our newly-hired outsourced chief investment officer firm, Agility, the OCIO business of Perella Wienberg Partners L.P., made substantive changes to the portfolio—which achieved one, three, and five-year investment

returns at 5.8 percent, 3.2 percent, and 5.1 percent, respectively. As part of Infinite Impact, we continue to seek growth of the university’s endowment. With endowments for student scholarships, for chairs and professorships, for excellence funds, and for facility and program enhancements, we can capitalize on the impacts created by gifts. Again, thank you for your infinite impact. You have a crucial role in bringing our “Bulldog billion” to fruition, and your steadfast belief in Mississippi State raises the bar for other alumni and friends in their support of our great alma mater. Sincerely, Earnest W. “Earnie” Deavenport Jr. ’60, ’11 Chair, MSU Foundation Board of Directors

The Impact of FAC ULT Y

Thank you for your commitment to ensure the success and advancement of Mississippi State University. Your support of the Infinite Impact campaign has greatly affected the lives of both current and future Bulldogs—making our aspirations bolder than before and intensifying the efforts of our university to positively influence the world.

A

An infinite impact can continue at Mississippi State. In the coming years, we hope to broaden Mississippi State’s base of supporters by increasing the number of alumni, parents, friends, foundations, and corporations making contributions. It is with support from these groups that our impact can grow stronger and reach farther. The best days are ahead of Mississippi State, and these times will come because of unwavering support from you and others like you who seek to make our institution one of the best teaching and research universities in the nation. A catalyst for change in higher education is often private gifts, and Infinite Impact remains a critical source of funding for Mississippi State’s highest priorities. The campaign provides the resources that will strengthen the university’s ability to educate and train the future workforce and leaders of the global economy. Infinite Impact supports growth throughout Mississippi State as it helps the university pursue

its long-term goals. Campaign gifts allow the university to seek higher graduation rates, a lower student-faculty ratio, and more competitive faculty salaries. The campaign also expands opportunities for study abroad and other international experiences, and it provides greater opportunities for faculty and students alike in interdisciplinary research that makes life better for people here and around the world. As we aspire to be among the best all-around universities, we must have gifts for scholarships for the best and brightest students and for individuals who will be the first in their families to pursue a college education. As the university population increases, campaign gifts for new facilities and much-needed renovations of existing structures will allow the campus infrastructure to keep pace as more students enroll. It is with new and improved facilities that Mississippi State will create a campus culture that enables students to live, work, and learn in a stable and safe environment. The impact you—our donors—have on students and faculty is just the beginning of

our university’s next chapter. As the circle of giving yields continual impact, more campaign commitments will help our university move upward in stature. And from the impact of our faculty comes the rewards of their labors as manifested in their students who are the lifeblood of our university. The impactful paths that lie before these future citizens begins now—with each gift that will positively influence generations to come who will find their home for higher education here at Mississippi State University. In our next annual report, we will explore the impact of teaching, research, and service on the university's dedicated and talented students. Their promise of impact strengthens as they move closer toward achieving their degrees. We sincerely appreciate your belief in education at all levels and your confidence in Mississippi State and the MSU Foundation. Private gifts through Infinite Impact are helping Mississippi State secure unprecedented growth in its second century—growth that will take us beyond statistics we have historically achieved across the university.

Annual Report 2017-2018
