2012-2013 Report to Investors


“In helping others, we shall help ourselves, for whatever good we give out completes the circle and comes back to us.” —Flora Edwards

Dear Friends Every day, I am proud to lead an outstanding team of individuals and groups who create a full circle of support to make Park University’s mission possible. Some people are just beginning their relationship with Park. Others have been steadfast in their commitment for years. What has always impressed me since I joined the University in 2009 is that Park not only values lifelong learning, but it deeply values lifelong relationships. The dedicated staff in Park’s Office of University Advancement is focused on giving each relationship the full attention it deserves. Sometimes, University Advancement’s role is misperceived as solely fundraising. I often find myself explaining that fundraising is an outcome of their first priority: to help individuals and organizations connect with the University in ways that matter most to them. In the following pages, you will find stories representing a spectrum of cherished relationships for which Park is deeply grateful. Some began decades and even generations ago. Together, each connection forms the arc of support that ensures access to a quality Park education for generations to come. Sincerely,

Michael H. Droge, Ph.D. Park University President


Mission and Values The mission of Park University is to provide access to a quality higher education experience that prepares a diverse community of learners to think critically, communicate effectively, demonstrate a global perspective, and engage in lifelong learning and service to others.

New Chapel Doors Honor Park Family and Friends Doors are profound metaphors representing the past and future. Closed, they stand as symbols of strength and protection. Open, they represent opportunity, possibility and hope. As a grand passageway to one of the most cherished buildings on Park University’s Parkville Campus, new doors at Graham Tyler Memorial Chapel were dedicated on Sept. 10 during a special ceremony to thank Park donors who contributed funds to purchase the new Chapel doors in memory of their beloved family members and friends. Originally built in 1931, Graham Tyler Memorial Chapel was rebuilt in 1938 after an extensive fire. Today, the Chapel houses the University’s renowned International Center for Music and is a premier venue for concerts, lectures and convocations. Many alumni and community members have been married in the Chapel over the years, an opportunity that Park reinstated in 2011. “The Chapel is so important to Park and preserving it is critical to Park’s heritage,” said Park University President Michael Droge, Ph.D. “It represents the Presbyterian foundation upon which this institution was founded.”

Missouri weather takes its toll on wood, prompting the Chapel doors to be replaced many times over the years. “This time, we wanted the doors to be made of more durable material, yet retain the beauty of the original building,” Droge said. The new pair of 36-inch doors were custom designed to work within the irregularities of the historic stone construction of the building, which is one of the challenges of preserving historic buildings, according to Clint Harris, manager of plant operations, maintenance and environmental services at Park. “The old doors were expensive to maintain. Every few years we had to remove, sand and re-stain the doors,” Harris said. “The new doors were selected with efficiency and durability in mind.” Made from a fiberglass composite, the new Chapel doors are weatherproof, rotproof and fireproof. The custom doors include an electronic proximity card reader for secure building access that was seamlessly incorporated into the design of the door’s hardware. “We wanted the technological elements that the doors required to be hidden to preserve the original beauty of the Chapel doors.”

In memory of Charlene Schwenk Schoggen, ’43 By her husband, Rear Adm. Joe G. Schoggen, U.S. Navy, Retired, ’43 In 1939, Joe Schoggen traveled from Broken Arrow, Okla., to attend Park where he met his late wife, Charlene, who died last May. “It’s gratifying to see the improvements being made to the Parkville Campus, a place that Park students around the globe can be proud of. Generations of students have passed through these Chapel doors that will provide a warm welcome to all future visitors.” In memory of Susan Ditmars Sakata By her husband, Park Trustee Col. Danny Kazuo Sakata, U.S. Army, Retired Park Board of Trustees member Danny Sakata shared warm remembrances of his wife, Susan, who passed away almost two years ago. “Susan had a smile for everyone and a passion for life,” Sakata said. “She had big plans for doing volunteer work with Park. Her plans for the future never came true; however, I think Susan would be very happy with the new Chapel doors, and if she were here — and I think she is — she would be first in line at this dedication.”

In memory of Robert Warinner, ’53 By his friend, Dean Larrick, ‘53 “It was a treasure to find such a dear friend at Park,” said Dean Larrick, ’53, about the late Robert Warinner, ’53, who was his Park dorm roommate and best man at his wedding 50 years ago. Warinner died of a heart attack when he was 30 years old. “His was a great life cut short. I’m honored to give the doors in memory of our friendship.” In memory of Thom Hugh Hunter, ’42, and Ruth Evyline Rinehart Hunter, ’44 By their legacy gift “Through their unrestricted estate gift this year to Park, we believe that Thom’s and Ruth’s love for the Chapel, the Presbyterian Church and for Park has been forever immortalized,” said Park President Michael Droge, Ph.D. The Hunters met at Park and married in 1944. Ruth was recognized by the Park University Alumni Association as a Distinguished Alumna in 1981, and Thom was a Navy chaplain and Presbyterian minister, and served on the Park Board of Trustees and as president of the Park Alumni Association.


Park University Protects Stability of Military Students University led the nation as first responders to assist financially stranded military students with the Park Emergency Military Scholarship Fund Faced with sudden uncertainty for funds to continue their education, active duty military students were armed with immediate assistance from Park University this past spring. As a component of the country’s sequestration in March, all branches of the U.S. military, except the U.S. Navy, announced the suspension of tuition assistance, a vital benefit for active duty service members to help them pursue their educational goals. Park responded immediately. On March 12, President Michael Droge, Ph.D., announced Park’s Emergency Military Scholarship Fund for qualified active duty military students to provide full tuition support to those caught without other financial resources, such as funding from G.I. Bill benefits, Pell grants or federal loans. Park was the first college or university in the nation to provide such assistance for stranded students that allowed them to continue their education without incurring debt.

Park’s announcement quickly went viral on Facebook and Twitter, and resulted in numerous national TV and radio interviews featuring the University, as well as newspaper articles across the country. The response was overwhelming: Park raised nearly $50,000 for the Emergency Military Scholarship Fund within a few weeks. “For Park, the decision to act quickly and do the right thing for those who serve our country was not difficult,” Droge said. “This kind of commitment is part of Park’s heritage as well as our future.” Although the military reversed their decision quickly so that only a few students were impacted, the fund and all the generous gifts received will be held for this purpose and will stand ready to assist when needed in the future.

Endowed Fund Brings Artwork of Professor Vincent Campanella Home to Park He taught students to see and believe in their ability to draw and paint. No wonder the late Vincent Campanella, professor emeritus of art, was one of Park University’s most beloved teachers. To extend gratitude to Park and honor the memory of her father, Tura Campanella Cook recently made a gift of $100,000 to establish the Vincent Campanella Endowed Fund for Art Collection and Preservation at Park University. “I’m grateful to Park for so many things. I have many good memories attending Park events as a child and after my father retired, Park kept a watchful eye on him as he aged,” said Cook, who lives in Austin, Texas. “My husband and I decided to start the endowment and donate many of his paintings to Park as a special way to thank the University and cherish my father’s memory as an artist and teacher.”

Thomas Hart Benton, 1973

As part of the endowment, Park will receive 40 to 50 of Campanella’s original works, mostly watercolors and oils, donated by Cook and her family. The fund will pay for expenses related to preserving and displaying the paintings. Campanella, who died in 2001, taught at the University of Wyoming, Columbia University and the Kansas City Art Institute before joining Park University in 1952. He retired in 1980, but stayed on at Park as professor emeritus of art and distinguished artist-in-residence.

Campy the Classical Abstractionist

Known fondly by students, faculty and friends as “Campy,” Campanella was born in New York City in 1915 and attended the Leonardo da Vinci Art School when he was 9 years old. In the 1930s, as an artist with the Works Progress Administration, he moved to Wyoming, and there, surrounded by wide-open vistas,

his style began to evolve. Known as a classical abstractionist, Campanella returned to New York where he was represented by the Rehn Gallery between 1946 and 1955. Campanella’s work has been exhibited in museums across the country, including The Art Institute of Chicago, Carnegie Institute, Brooklyn Museum, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, San Diego Museum, San Francisco Museum, Seattle Museum and the Whitney Museum of American Art. A retrospective show of his work was hosted in 2007 at the Albrecht-Kemper Museum of Art in St. Joseph, Mo., and in Park University’s Campanella Gallery in Parkville, Mo. (In tribute to his memory, the Campanella Gallery was established in 1988 in the McAfee Memorial Library on the Parkville Campus to provide display space for student and regional artists’ work.)

Campanella is best remembered at Park for his supportive relationships with students. Through the years, Cook has been told many stories about her father’s inspiring teaching style. “My father would bristle when students said they couldn’t draw or paint. He encouraged them to look for shapes and lines to help them realize they can draw,” said Cook. “If I have any regret, it would be that I never sat in on one of my dad’s art classes at Park. I would have loved it.”

Campy Taught Me to See

A former student, Burton Dunbar, ’63, Ph.D., professor of Renaissance and American art history at the University of Missouri-Kansas City, said, “Vincent Campanella was the single-most influential person on my professional career. He was the most knowledgeable person I have ever met about being a painter and being an artist. To my everlasting gratitude, Campy taught me to see.” Other students of Campanella’s achieved notable success as artists, although in quite different spheres, including cartoonist Robert “Chance” Browne, a member of the Park class of 1970, who draws the nationally syndicated comic strip “Hi and Lois,” and Robert Morris, who has become one of the country’s most respected avant-garde artists.

The Vincent Campanella Endowed Fund for Art Collection and Preservation will also support Park in presenting future art lectures or demonstrations, such as the memorable presentation for students in 1962 in Graham Tyler Memorial Chapel on the Parkville Campus where Campanella completed a 65” x 53” oil painting of two women seated on the stage. “With this gift, we want Park to continue to be a special place for art education within its strong liberal arts program,” said Cook.

Around the World and Back to Park

Pauline Murphy’s unrestricted estate gift supports students pursuing the field she admired: social work. In 1957, after just two years at Park University, Pauline “Polly” Murphy was eager to join the workforce and see the world. Fortunately, she landed a job working for Rotary International, and before long, she began traveling with Rotary, organizing conventions and assemblies until she retired in 1990, when she continued to pursue her love of travel. Though she journeyed the globe, Murphy remained connected to Park. In 2007, she attended her 50th class reunion during Park’s Alumni Weekend, traveling from her home in Evanston, Ill. Murphy’s loyalty to Park never ended. Upon her death in July 2011, Park received more than $198,000 — an unrestricted gift from Murphy’s estate. When Park receives an unrestricted gift, careful consideration is given to its best use. “There’s a perception that unrestricted gifts are not used for any specific purpose other than general operating costs,” said Laurie McCormack, vice president for university advancement. “At Park, we are careful to direct unrestricted funds in a way that best honors the donor’s life and fits within the University’s priorities.” Park learned that Murphy always expressed respect and deep appreciation for the social work profession from her experiences over the years, including her work with

Rotary, an international social service organization. In determining how to best use her generous gift, Park decided to dedicate more than $158,000 to establish a scholarship fund for students pursuing a degree in social work, while directing the remaining funds to support accreditation and promotion of the University’s new Master of Social Work program. Park is currently in the process of pursuing accreditation from the Council on Social Work Education to offer a MSW degree in 2014. As part of Park’s strategic plan, Park’s Promise, the University is committed to providing students with degree programs that support career fields in high demand. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of social workers is expected to grow by 25 percent through 2020, faster than the average for all occupations. As the country recovers from a deep recession and multiple wars, social workers are in high demand. “In challenging times, the need for professionals to intervene — on the individual, organizational and community levels — goes up,” said Walter Kisthardt, Ph.D., professor and chair of social work, and director of Park’s Bachelor of Social Work and Master of Social Work programs. “The new social work scholarship is a fitting tribute to Pauline Murphy’s memory by offering assistance to help Park students who are preparing to meet the growing need for professional social workers around the world.”

Lighting the Way It’s often said that the past can shed light on the future. That is clearly the case at Park University. To celebrate their 50th reunion, generous alumni representing the classes of 1961, 1962 and 1963 joined together to make a special gift, providing funds to purchase three new lamp posts for the University’s Parkville Campus. The elegant lamp posts, installed along the sidewalk on the west side of Norrington Center and Findlay-Wakefield Science Hall, provide much-needed improvement to the safety of the campus at night, while enhancing the beauty of the historic buildings. The new lamp posts also stand as a symbol to show how Park alumni continue to light the way for future Park students as they pursue their dreams. “Ultimately, our goal is that all of the Parkville Campus pathways will be lit by more of these beautiful lamp posts,” said Laurie McCormack, vice president for university advancement. “We hope other classes and individuals will welcome the opportunity to support this ongoing project.” If you are interested in learning more or making a gift, contact Nathan Marticke, associate vice president of constituent development, at nathan.marticke@park.edu or (816) 584-6844.

Alice Richards Armstrong

Harry Armstrong

Letters from Park

For years, Robert Armstrong did little more than flip through boxes of family photos and documents he had stored away. In 2005, a cousin sent him 78 letters written at the turn of the century that were addressed to his grandfather, Harry Armstrong, from his future wife, Alice Richards. It was then that Robert Armstrong caught the genealogy bug and began researching his family history — a history that led him to Park University. “I had never heard of Park until I read the letters,” Armstrong said. “The letters were so warm and witty, I couldn’t let them just sit in a box.” Instead, he made them the centerpiece of a book he authored about his family: Alice’s Letter to Harry: A History of the Richards and Armstrong Families. It was at Park University that Richards met Harry Armstrong before he graduated in 1898 and attended seminary in Omaha, Neb. It was during that time that Richards penned the 78 letters to Harry until she graduated from Park in 1900. They married in 1901. Since discovering how pivotal Park was to his family history, Robert Armstrong decided to contact Park Archivist Carolyn Elwess, ‘71, who became a valued resource. It turns out Armstrong discovered a number of family members attended Park, including Richard’s brother, Dean


Willard Richards, who graduated in 1900, and later sent his four children to Park. Harry Armstrong’s sister, Mary, also graduated from Park in 1899. With Richard’s letters and his grandfather’s diary, Robert Armstrong pieced together their story. Harry and Alice spent their first year of marriage as missionaries in Siam (Thailand) before Alice’s health forced them to return to the U.S. Tragically, Richard’s died after giving birth to a child in 1912. A year later, Harry married Helen Osborn and another year later, Robert Armstrong’s father was born.

A Special Place

After retiring as a chemical engineer, Robert Armstrong spent time researching his family’s history while caring for his ailing late wife, Sally Miller Armstrong. He published his book in 2006 before her death in 2008. It was then that Armstrong decided to do some traveling from his home in Katy, Texas, with an itinerary that included a stop in the Midwest to see Park University’s Parkville Campus. “It was apparent from the letters that Park was a special place with a family-like atmosphere,” Armstrong said. “From the letters, it was clear that Alice and Harry not only received a good education, but they were nurtured and mentored by the environment at Park. When I arrived on campus, I realized that special spirit still exists at Park today.”

Armstrong said he was warmly welcomed and enjoyed being graciously toured around the Parkville Campus. In 2012, he returned to participate in the golf tournament during Alumni Weekend. For Armstrong, it was a natural decision to support Park. He was pleased to discover the opportunity to establish a charitable gift annuity to not only benefit Park, but to also offer personal financial benefits in his retirement. Yet Armstrong said giving to Park is about more than personal benefits or commemorating his family. “I want to support Park’s positive role in shaping the lives of future students.” Armstrong said he feels a closer tie to Park than his alma mater. “I graduated from an excellent academic university, but I didn’t have the benefit of a friendly, nurturing atmosphere where professors cared if I passed or failed,” he said. “Frankly, I wish I had attended a school like Park.”

Change of Address

To maintain his new connection to the University, Armstrong made sure to let his Park friends know about his recent change of address. “It all started on Facebook,” Armstrong said about getting in touch last year with a friend who had also lost a spouse. Unlike his grandparents Harry and Alice, Armstrong corresponded with an “old flame” via e-mail and Skype before finally meeting in person at the Grand Canyon. After an April wedding, Armstrong and his wife, Judy, now live in Oakland, Calif. “It’s been a whirlwind of a year,” Armstrong said. “We both feel very lucky.” They’ve since enjoyed traveling together. And yes, their travels have included a brief stop to see the Parkville Campus where Armstrong showed Judy the special place where romance first blossomed in his family more than a century ago.

Win-Win Advantage of Giving Support for Park’s faculty provides steady payment for retired professor If anyone understands the need to support faculty in pursuing research and professional development, it’s G. Ross Stephens, ’49, Ph.D. “It’s increasingly important for faculty to have access to funds for research and travel,” said Stephens, who has pursued continued learning outside the classroom since his academic career began after graduating from Park University more than 60 years ago. Stephens, professor emeritus of political science and public administration at the University of Missouri-Kansas City, earned a Bachelor of Arts in political science and economics from Park before earning two master degrees and a doctorate in political science and public administration at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

“I know from years of experience in academia that funding for professional development is a constant need,” Stephens said. “It’s important for faculty — and consequently their students — to continuously expand their knowledge through research and conference participation.” Although he retired in 1992, Stephens can still be found nearly every day in his office continuing to research and write, or traveling to conferences across the country where he is often a featured speaker or panelist.

“My education at Park provided a solid foundation for my future academic career,” said Stephens, who, after he retired, wanted to find a way to give back to his alma mater. By establishing a charitable gift annuity with Park, he found a way to not only support Park, but to also create an additional source of personal income during his retirement years.

As a specialist in metropolitan and state government, Stephens is known for his research on public finance, public policy and intergovernmental relations. A former president of the Missouri Political Science Association, Stephens has served as a consultant to federal, state and local governments, and universities. He has also served as a survey statistician with the U.S. Department of the Navy, as the senior president in public finance at the U.S. Advisory Commission on Intergovernmental Relations and as a senior staff member for three Ford Foundation urban studies groups.

“The charitable gift annuity offers a smart way for me to support Park while generating some tax-free income for myself. It’s a win-win way to give.” The advantage prompted Stephens to establish a second charitable gift annuity this year, totaling a contribution of $40,000 to Park.

Stephens has authored two books and has been an expert source and contributor to the media, including The San Diego Union-Tribune, The Kansas City Star, Journal of Politics, National Tax Journal, Policy Studies Review, Land Economics, National Civic Review, Urban Affairs Quarterly and American Review of Public Administration.

Stephens directed his charitable gift annuities toward a priority that matters most to him: professional faculty development. Specifically, he designated his gift to support the professional activities of full-time Park faculty teaching political science and/or public administration, including research, professional conferences and other professional development activities when other funds are not available.

By example, Stephens demonstrates the value of lifelong learning. He believes in the increasing importance of a college education, particularly the liberal education emphasized at Park. “It’s more valuable than ever to have a well-rounded education to understand our ever-changing world,” Stephens said.

Charitable Gift Annuity: How It Works A charitable gift annuity offers a mutually beneficial way to support Park University while receiving steady payments during retirement years. Through a simple contract, a donor agrees to contribute cash, stocks or other assets to Park, and in return, receive fixed payments every year for a lifetime. A charitable gift annuity offers additional benefits, including: • Initial gift is partially income tax deductible • Payments are partially income tax free throughout an estimated life expectancy • Payments are not affected by ups and downs in the economy • The gift annuity can be for one or two people, enabling a spouse or other loved one to receive payments for life • Using appreciated stock to make a gift annuity allows the donor to usually eliminate the capital gains tax on a portion of the gift and spread the rest of the gain over the life expectancy To learn more about charitable gift annuities as a way to support Park University, contact Nathan Marticke, associate vice president of constituent development, at nathan.marticke@park.edu or (816) 584-6844.


founders day 2013

Celebrating Science at the Stowers Institute for Medical Research Educating scientists and health care leaders has been in Park’s DNA since 1875

To celebrate Park University’s service to science and health care, Founders Day 2013 was hosted on May 7 at the Stowers Institute for Medical Research in Kansas City, Mo. The event raised nearly $200,000 to benefit Park’s Ellen Finley Earhart Nursing Program and the University’s natural and physical science programs, as well as Park’s Presidential Honors Scholarship. “As we support science education at Park, it is most fitting that we celebrate Founders Day in one of the world’s leading scientific facilities,” Park University President Michael Droge, Ph.D., told the crowd. The Stowers Institute for Medical Research was established through the extraordinary generosity of cancer survivors James “Jim” E. Stowers Jr., the founder of American Century Investments in Kansas City, Mo., and his wife Virginia G. Stowers, who dedicated their personal fortune to improving human health through basic biomedical research. Situated on a 10-acre campus in the heart of Kansas City, the Stowers Institute features a 600,000-sq. ft. research facility that includes state-of-the-art laboratories, technology centers and scientific support facilities to promote collaboration among scientists.

All guests enjoyed a reception, followed by a behind-the-scenes tour of the renowned research facility. Premier sponsors also received a special pre-event reception followed by a more in-depth tour and special presentation about Stowers’ research advancements and future plans by David Chao, Ph.D., president and CEO of the Stowers Institute. A video highlighted Park’s natural and physical science programs, followed by a special presentation on how the University is incorporating the latest technologies in nursing education. Gerry Walker, D.H.Ed., chair and associate professor of nursing, moderated a live demonstration to showcase Park’s nursing simulation labs that feature computerized patients that can be programmed to present various medical conditions, complications and other patient-care scenarios to enable realistic, hands-on learning opportunities. Park’s Ellen Finley Earhart Nursing Program has trained hundreds of nurses since 1987. Recently, Park launched one of the first online Bachelor of Science in Nursing Degree Completion programs in the country. “From the very beginning — since Park was founded in 1875 — educating scientists and health care leaders has been in Park’s DNA,” Droge said.

Ballyhoo 2014 Mark your calendar to join Park University in celebration of this newly named event (formerly known as Founders Day) in 2014 on Friday, April 4, in support of Park’s International Center for Music and the Presidential Honors Scholarship. A goal of $400,000 has been set for the evening. Following a heavy hors d’oeuvres and hosted bar reception, plus a short program of recognition at the acclaimed Webster House, Ballyhoo sponsors and their guests are invited to join music aficionados at the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts in Kansas City, Mo., for a special concert — featuring Park’s International Center for Music faculty and students — to honor the late Van Cliburn, one of the greatest pianists of the 20th century. Park associate professor of music/piano and 2001 Van Cliburn International Piano Competition gold medalist Stanislav Ioudenitch became a close friend of Cliburn’s — so close that Cliburn requested a special concert by Ioudenitch’s daughter, Maria, be performed in his home. This tribute concert is endorsed by Cliburn’s longtime partner, Tommy Smith.

Making the Most of Compost Park awarded grant from Mid-America Regional Council to divert 42 tons of food waste from landfills in its first year Going green has been such a commitment at Park University for some time that it is now going to a new level, thanks to an $11,700 grant from the Mid-America Regional Council to collect and compost all food waste produced at the University’s Pirate Café on the Parkville Campus. The new food waste project, “Making the Most of Compost,” began in January. Park cafeteria staff collect all food waste created by diners, including paper napkins and tray liners. The waste is picked up three times per week by Missouri Organic’s Food Residuals Environmental Division and composted at Missouri Organic’s rural facilities. “Composting is a growing trend on college campuses to support sustainable operations,” said Kathleen Robey, food services director with Park’s Sodexo Campus Services, who is serving as the grant director. A 2010 waste audit conducted by Park staff and students found that nearly 45 percent of the University’s trash by weight is affected by food waste and could be diverted from the landfill. “From our research, we estimate the new program

will divert 42 tons of waste from the landfill in its first year,” Robey said. The grant includes funding for marketing materials to educate students, staff and faculty about the new program and the impact of composting on the environment, as well as ways to decrease waste. “In addition to diverting waste, we want to cut down on creating waste by encouraging diners to carefully consider taking only what they plan to eat,” Robey said. As part of the project, Sodexo contributed funds to purchase two 60-inch LCD flatscreen monitors that have been installed in the cafeteria to run educational videos and presentations about composting, the environment and sustainability. A series of flyers, posters and other materials are being developed to inform the University community about the program. The composting project represents an expansion of the University’s “Park Goes Green” program introduced in 2009 to launch multiple initiatives, including recycling stations in dormitories and recycling bins across campus to collect paper waste, plastic bottles and aluminum cans.


Rethinking Relationships If you think Park University’s Office of University Advancement is only focused on raising funds, think again. At Park, it’s not only about the gift. It’s about relationships, some treasured for years, others just beginning. That’s why Laurie D. McCormack, vice president for university advancement, recently made some changes to reflect the full circle of support that is critical to Park’s future. Now in her sixth year at Park, McCormack shares some thoughts on advancement’s role in securing the resources to support Park’s continued success:

Q

This has been the best fundraising year in the last six years. To what do you attribute this success? During the difficult economic times, our advancement team remained steadfast in nurturing and building relationships. With confidence in an improved economy and a strong Park University that has weathered the storm well, we’re fortunate that individuals and organizations that share a passion for Park’s mission are generously sharing their resources with us.

Q

You recently restructured the office to focus on both “constituent develop ment” and “constituent engagement.” Why does that matter? We recognize that a gift to Park is ultimately a reflection of a personal relationship with the University that begins and evolves in many ways — from students who become successful alumni, to businesses who hire our graduates, to family and friends who want to honor their loved ones legacy. After I joined Park in 2008, I heard time and again from alumni and business and civic leaders who wanted to connect to Park. In 2012, we aligned the Office of University Advancement to better connect all the staff responsible for the various aspects of external relations. I also named two critical leaders of the advancement team:

Nathan Marticke, M.A.C.L. ’10, associate vice president of constituent development, and, Erik Bergrud, M.P.A. ’94, associate vice president of constituent engagement. Both Nathan and Erik are Park alumni and we all share a real passion for the University. They’ve garnered excellent skills elsewhere and with them both back at Park, we’re reaping the benefits of their education and experience. Not to mention, they’re a joy to work with every day. Some view their roles as separate: one focused on money and one focused on people. That’s too simplistic, and, candidly, devalues what we all do and the concern we share for all our constituents. It’s more about focusing and coordinating each University Advancement staff members’ efforts as we work toward the same goal: to improve and deepen the relationship our alumni and friends have with Park.

Q

Why was Career Development moved under University Advancement? With Career Development joining the University Advancement team, we can work more closely with Park alumni to help us connect with their employers to hire Park students and graduates nationwide. This deepens their relationship with the University and better serves the employment needs of all our students and alumni.

Q

As you enter this year at Park, what keeps you motivated? I’ve always believed that higher education is at the core of solving society’s ills, which is why most of my professional career has been in advancement efforts for universities. More than ever, it’s important for higher education to be accessible to everyone who has the perseverance and desire to further their education. That is, and always has been, Park’s mission, and helping to open those doors and provide that opportunity for a quality education is what continues to motivate me every day.

Stern Foundation provides grant to update Park theater Park University received a $17,400 grant from the Richard J. Stern Foundation for the Arts to support costs to replace the curtain legs and stage rigging in the Jenkin and Barbara David Theater located in Alumni Hall on the Parkville Campus. The curtains, thought to be about 50 years old, were deteriorating and outdated, and the rigging above the stage was not state-of-the-art. “The improvements benefit not only students at Park, but groups and organizations surrounding the Parkville Campus who use the space for artistic productions and workshops throughout the year,” said Andrea Southard, Ph.D., instructor of theatre at Park. Every year, the Coterie Theatre, a professional Equity theater serving young audiences, hosts drama and acting camps at Park for children in kindergarten through high school. The Bell Road Barn Players, a theater company founded in 1952 by the Davids, have used Park’s theater most years since their Platte County, Mo., theater suffered irreparable flood damage in 1993. In addition to providing an academic minor designed to augment other departmental majors, Park’s Theatre Program offers two main stage presentations each year.
