Thank you for your generosity and commitment to our community.

E

nclosed is our annual report for 2017-18. We are so thankful to all who support Saint Martin’s and our students. Each gift helps perpetuate our core mission of educating eager minds.

In this issue, we also include stories that illustrate our commitment to Service, one of Saint Martin’s four core themes – Faith, Reason, Community and Service. As 2017-18 was the Year of Community, so 2018-19 is the Year of Service. When we think of Service, we think of the students we serve and how we serve them. We also look at instilling in our students a lifelong commitment to serve others and their community. We do this by developing service-oriented programs like nursing and environmental engineering; by broadening our students’ education through hands-on experiences like Our Common Home Farms and the Big Beam competition; and by leading conversations on how to be better servant leaders, like the Teaching Equity conference. We hope you enjoy reading this report. Great things are happening at Saint Martin's because of people like you. Thank you again for your generosity and commitment to our community. Your gift, no matter the amount, affects the lives of many and for a lifetime.

Financials

The following numbers reflect Saint Martin’s University's total Contributions for this fiscal year as well as the five most recent fiscal year results on Endowment and Institutional Aid. The fiscal year runs July 1 – June 30 of each year.

Contributions

Contributions consist of all private gifts and grants made to Saint Martin’s University from individuals, foundations and corporations. Gifts are both unrestricted and restricted for purposes such as scholarships, academic programs and capital projects.

6 | www.stmartin.edu/make-gift

Endowment

An endowment is a donation that is made to Saint Martin’s on the condition that it is used to advance the mission of the school for the long term. Most endowments are designed to provide a permanent source of income for the University by keeping the original amount invested and using the accrued income from dividends for its charitable purpose, such as a scholarship. Saint Martin’s endowment has grown due to the generosity of donors through outright gifts, bequests and other planned gifts, as well as investment earnings.

Institutional Aid

Part of a student’s overall financial aid package, institutional aid represents the grants and scholarships which Saint Martin’s itself offers prospective and returning students. It does not include federal or state grants, loans, or outside scholarships or work study.

$1.3 MILLION RAISED FOR STUDENT SCHOLARSHIPS DURING THE 2018 GALA FEATURING CHEF ROY YAMAGUCHI On Nov. 3, more than 600 friends and alumni helped Saint Martin’s University raise over $1.3 million for student scholarships at the Saint Martin’s Gala, held on the University’s Lacey campus. This year’s Gala featured James Beard-award winning chef Roy Yamaguchi, known throughout the world for his beautiful restaurants, Hawai`i-inspired cuisine, four cookbooks and “Hawai`i Cooks with Roy Yamaguchi” on PBS.

The black-tie celebration was the thirteenth Gala, the University’s annual signature fund-raising event, and this year’s edition came with a focus on an aspect of the University’s history. As Saint Martin’s University President Roy F. Heynderickx, Ph.D., explained, “This year’s Gala celebrates the fact that, for over 50 years, students from the Pacific Islands, including Hawai’i, American Samoa, Guam and the Federated States of Micronesia, have helped guide and shape the culture of Saint Martin’s.” As in years past, Saint Martin’s students played a major role in the event. Chantal Arevalo, who graduated in 2017 with degrees in secondary education and English, spoke about how her time at Saint Martin's helped shape "who [she] wanted to become." She shared that scholarships are vital to connecting thousands of young men and women to Saint Martin’s so they too can find “their people, their place and their purpose.”

opportunities

Saint martin's nursing program will continue the of St. Gregory’s University This summer, Teri Moser Woo, Ph.D., RN, ANRP, director of nursing, Jeff Crane,

Ph.D., dean of the College of Arts and Sciences and interim dean of the School of Business, Philip Cheek, director of grounds and facilities and Jeremy Fleury, maintenance technician, travelled to St. Gregory’s University, located in Shawnee, Oklahoma, to pack up and move the nursing learning laboratory equipment that Saint Martin’s had won in the St. Gregory’s bankruptcy auction. St. Gregory’s, a Benedictine university, closed in fall 2017 due to financial difficulties. Crane, Cheek and Woo spoke in an interview about their experience at St. Gregory’s and the importance of obtaining the nursing equipment for the future of the Saint Martin’s nursing program.

1010| |www.stmartin.edu/make-gift www.stmartin.edu/make-gift


Jeff Crane

The opportunity

Jeff Crane: It all went quickly, because we had to both bid and figure out how we were going to handle things. Teri: We discussed by email, then met with [Interim Provost] Kate Boyle.

Jeff: Everybody was supportive, and we worked out what we would do to get it and how much we were willing to spend. It took Philip being willing to go down there to get it—that was crucial. Philip Cheek: We were trying to make sure it was cost effective and figure out the logistics. Looking at the pictures that were on the auction site made it difficult to know exactly how much equipment was there, but I got ahold of Brother Damian [at St. Gregory’s], and he sent me pictures of what was in the individual rooms. Jeff: Teri showed great leadership on this and an entrepreneurial attitude, which mobilized me. And then Philip

Philip Cheek

said, "I'm happy to go," so all those things made it possible. We're all salaried and we were focused on keeping the cost down. In another world we might have had it all packed up and shipped, but that would have added tens of thousands of dollars. The total cost to pack it up ourselves was low altogether. I saw it as an adventure and an opportunity to bond with Teri, Philip and Jeremy. Philip: We're all here for the students. We'll do whatever needs to be done.

Continuing the Legacy

Teri Woo: My second day here I met with admissions, and John Abreu [admissions counselor] mentioned that when he was at St. Gregory's recruiting students, he heard they had a nursing lab and that it might be available for Saint Martin’s. John contacted the St. Gregory’s Abbey to check on the bankruptcy auction and found the nursing and cadaver lab were posted as one item.

winning the bid

How did you find out that we had won the auction? Jeff: It was fun—we were watching it online. Philip: We had a monitor, because if the bid went up, you had to re-bid. Teri: We had a maximum bid we had agreed upon ahead of time. Jeff: We were all following in our offices, then it got close and we went to Teri’s office and watched it. It had been low, then it went up a thousand, another thousand. We were trying to figure out how to raise our bid. There was one point where they lost their Wi-Fi, and we're like "Oh no." Because it was live, there were people there making bids, but we were online. Teri: Panic, thinking, “Oh no.” Jeff: After winning, we booked our flights.

travelling

Cheek, Crane and Fleury flew out to Oklahoma together, while Woo followed the next morning. They picked up two rental trucks from U-Haul, drove out to the St. Gregory’s campus and met with the members of the St. Gregory’s Abbey.

Arriving at st. gregory's Philip: I had been in phone contact with Brother Damian, and he was going to meet us at the door. He still hadn't realized we were from Saint Martin's. When we got there we introduced ourselves, and once he learned we were from Saint Martin's, the monks invited us to lunch, and it was nice working with them. Though it was sad to see this great university close down, to see weeds growing up on their balconies, to see the individual classrooms with the 12 | www.stmartin.edu/make-gift

chairs on the tables, not being used anymore. Jeff: It was sad. I walked through the dorms on my own and there was a lot of deferred maintenance. Philip: I think the monastic community was sad because, while we were loading up stuff, other groups who’d won bids for artwork were coming around. The monastery sold everything and they were happy that people bought the stuff, but it also must have been tough for them.

Continuing the missions of St. Gregory's nursing program

Philip: When the nursing program is set up, we’re hoping to invite members of their monastic community here to see how their vision for the St. Gregory’s nursing program continues on. Teri: Some part of our nursing labs will have their name on it. They gave us their St. Agatha (the patron saint of nursing) painting and it's in our office now. More than just the equipment, there’s a spirit that came with it. Now we have this amazing story about how we started the program. It's good stewardship of that equipment, because it will be used for the original purpose that the donors intended.

Teri: St. Gregory’s nursing program was well funded and they had topof-the-line equipment. It's exciting to have all this as we get started, to honor the fact that their program closed but will continue to live. The equipment will still be used in a way that was meant when it was donated—to educate nursing students. Jeff: We took everything. Teri: We've got many high-quality teaching models—for example, for students to learn to start an IV (intravenous feed). We actually have five fake IV arms. We also have a baby warmer, baby cribs and five babies, IV fluids, 11 IV pumps and poles. We will be able to set up our lab like a hospital room. We will have the equipment necessary for students to learn the skills they need before they take care of real patients. We also have desks, tables, chairs and two flat screen TVs so that students can watch other students work. We have their curriculum, and that will save us months of time as we develop our program.

Nursing at Saint Martin's

Teri: Nursing has been a religious calling since its beginning. The first nurses were monks; in fact, St. Benedict had a nursing order. And it wasn't until the Florence Nightingale era that nursing became more of a female-dominated secular profession. So the fact that a Benedictine university has a nursing program fits.

social justice, so it's a good mission fit.”

Jeff: Respect for persons is an important part of Catholic social teaching, but it's also a Benedictine value. We also enhance the strength of the community by training students in nursing, helping them be socially mobile and caring for people. There are multiple ways in which it is consistent with our mission, and there's a desperate need for nurses. Teri: I’m excited about being able to build a nursing program at a university that already has a diverse population, because nursing as a profession needs more diversity. There's excitement at the state level

because there's no program for baccalaureate education between Tacoma and Portland. We are filling a void in this state. Nursing is a big program to build. Acquiring this equipment puts us months ahead, and the spirit of the commitment to the program is exciting! Updates on our nursing program can be found on our website at: www.stmartin.edu/nursing

a community farming partnership Our Common Home Farms (OCHF) is a community farming program

launched by Saint Martin's University in collaboration with Pope John Paul II High School and several community partners, including Pigman's Produce, Sacred Heart Catholic Church, Parsons Family Farms and the O'Neill Farm.

14 | www.stmartin.edu/make-gift


“ This experience allows For nearly half a century, Saint Martin’s operated a farm that raised sheep, chickens and dairy cows, as well as produced fresh milk, eggs, cheese, vegetables and honey to help feed the abbey and the college. The farm is now all but a memory, but its Benedictine spirit of stewardship and sustainability continues in a new community farming program.

Chavez spoke about how she has incorporated trips to the farms into her teaching. “A field experience at the farm for English 101 students gives them an opportunity to unplug, work with their hands in the service of others and work as part of a team.

― Julia McChord Chavez, Ph.D., director of the Center for Scholarship and Teaching

This provides excellent material for descriptive, place-based writing. Even a brief experience at the farm highlights concepts of food justice and environmental stewardship, too. This has inspired some students to write about these topics later in the semester when we move on to persuasive writing” shared Chavez. “[OCHF] is such a powerful model for service learning because it fosters a natural link between ‘reason’ and ‘service.’” This spring and summer, OCHF will again offer community supported agriculture (CSA) shares. Purchasing shares reduces reliance on industrial agriculture practices and longdistance shipment of produce using fossil fuels. CSA shares provide access to delicious, nutrient-dense

produce at the peak of ripeness. OCHF strives to provide healthy, locally-grown produce for those in the community who suffer from hunger and in an effort to help individuals and communities learn agricultural sustainability in order to improve their own physical, spiritual and psychological health. OCHF also focuses on building climate change resilience in the areas of food production, the creation of habitat and the mitigation of climate change processes.

Fr. Bede

Fr. Placidus

The Saint Martin’s University Board of Trustees, with the concurrence of the Board of Trustees Institutional Advancement/Science Initiative Committee, has approved the naming of the new science building in honor of Fr. Bede Ernsdorff, O.S.B. (1909 – 1982) and the naming of the Department of Natural Sciences in honor of Fr. Placidus Reischman, O.S.B. (1926 – 2000). Fr. Bede served as the head of the chemistry department from 1938 to 1982 and Fr. Placidus served as chair of the biology department from 1959 to 1987. The University has started construction on the new 30,000-square-foot classroom and laboratory facility that will house its growing natural and physical science programs. The new building, which is scheduled to open in fall 2019, will include laboratories, classrooms, collaborative research spaces and offices. It will be strategically located near Cebula Hall and adjacent to the Panowicz Foundry for Innovation and the E.L. Wiegand Laboratories, which houses engineering, computer science and industrial labs, creating a STEM complex at the core of the campus.

Fr. Bede Ernsdorff, O.S.B. was born on January 7, 1909 in Yakima, Washington. After completing two years of college education at Saint Martin’s, he entered the Benedictine novitiate in 1932. He went on to study at St. Benedict’s Abbey in Kansas, where he

16 | www.stmartin.edu/make-gift

completed his bachelor’s degree in science and his theological studies for the priesthood. He also did graduate work in chemistry at the University of Michigan, earning his master’s degree in 1936. Following his ordination in 1938, he began his long and distinguished Saint Martin’s career as a teacher and counselor, which was only interrupted to pursue doctoral work at Stanford University, where he earned his Ph.D. in chemistry in 1946. He returned to Saint Martin’s to become the mainstay of the chemistry program and a muchrespected pre-medicine and predentistry advisor over the next three decades. He also served as dean of the College and took on various leadership roles within the Abbey. In 1955, he was awarded a Distinguished Alumni Award for his service to Saint Martin’s. On September 11, 1995, Saint Martin’s Centennial Day, a memorial was dedicated to Fr. Bede, “a sterling


monk, renowned professor and a beloved friend to generations of students and alumni.”

Saint Martin’s hosts regional conference, Teaching Equity: Advocating for Students

Fr. Placidus Reischman, O.S.B. was born on September 7, 1926 in South Bend, Washington. He entered Saint Martin’s in 1945 and the monastic novitiate in 1947. After receiving his bachelor’s degree in 1950, he undertook theological studies at Mt. Angel Seminary and was ordained in 1954. Fr. Placidus began graduate studies in biology at the University of Washington in 1954 and then transferred to the Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C., where he earned his master’s degree in biology in 1957 and his Ph.D. in 1959.

Saint Martin's College of Education and Counseling hosted its first annual Teaching Equity: Advocating for Students conference in October with Erin Jones, independent education and systems consultant, as the keynote speaker. The conference was designed to equip, empower and encourage attendees to be strong advocates for equity within their spheres of influence.

Saint Martin’s University will host regional student engineering conference in 2019 Saint Martin’s University will host the 2019 Pacific Northwest Region Student Conference of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) and the American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) from April 11 – 13, 2019. The conference will bring together student chapters from 19 colleges and universities in Alaska, British Columbia, Idaho, Montana, Oregon and Washington. Students will compete in events including the concrete canoe competition (which involves developing a concrete canoe that can float), technical paper presentations, environmental engineering challenges, surveying and the steel bridge construction challenge. There are opportunities for alumni and friends of the University to volunteer for the conference and, for those who are engineering professionals, opportunities to serve as judges for the conference. Please see stmartin.edu/pnwceconference for more information. The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) is an engineering society devoted to advancing technologies, encouraging lifelong learning, promoting professionalism and the civil engineering profession, developing civil engineering leaders and advocating infrastructure and environmental stewardship. The American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC), is a nonpartisan, not-for-profit technical 18 | www.stmartin.edu/make-gift

institute and trade association established in 1921 to serve the structural steel design community and construction industry in the United States. AISC's mission is to make structural steel the material of choice by being the leader in structural-steel-related technical and market-building activities, including: specification and code development, research, education, technical assistance, quality certification, standardization, market development.

Saint Martin’s engineering team wins first place in national Big Beam Competition for second consecutive year A team of Saint Martin’s students won first place in the national 2018 Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute (PCI) Big Beam Competition. PCI’s 2018 Big Beam Competition included entries from colleges and universities across the U.S. This is the second consecutive year that Saint Martin’s students have placed first in PCI’s Big Beam Competition.

The annual contest requires each team to design and fabricate a precast/prestressed concrete beam to contest specifications, then test it until it fails, measuring the actual results against their pre-test calculations and other factors. After testing, teams send their results to PCI, where they are judged on several factors, including efficiency of the design and the beam’s highest load capacity. The Saint Martin’s students fabricated and submitted a prestressed concrete beam named “Snap, Crackle, Pop,” which was constructed with the help of the team’s sponsor, Concrete Technology Corporation (CTC) of Tacoma. Jill Walsh, Ph.D., PE, assistant professor of civil engineering, served as the team's advisor, and team members included captains Joel Rodgers and Jarad Roschi, Luis Camacho, Turner Kreman, Carthney Laukon, Jesse San Nicholas, Tyler Sloan and Chase Weeks. “I am exceptionally proud of Dr. Walsh and her students,” said David Olwell, Ph.D., dean of the University’s Hal and Inge Marcus School of Engineering. “Only one other school has ever been back-to-back Big Beam champions – Notre Dame. Our students have shown again that our programs, faculty and graduates are among the best in the nation. CTC has been an awesome partner and we are very grateful to them, and especially Mr. Austin Maue.”


School of Business professor wins grant to research microfinance This fall, Andrew Barenberg, Ph.D., assistant professor of economics, won a research grant to study the impact of microfinance loans for water and sanitation improvements. Microfinance is the economic development practice of giving small loans, generally $100 or less, to low-income borrowers in developing countries. The grant comes from Water.org, a water and sanitation NGO, and comes with

data on thousands of borrowers in India, Philippines and Peru. The research is focused on the impact on economic wellbeing and will test if households saw an increase in nonhealth related consumption after receiving a loan and making water or sanitation improvements. Water.org pioneered using microfinance to improve household water and sanitation access in what they term WaterCredit. With WaterCredit loans the funds might go to build a latrine, connect the household to city water pipes, connect to the sewer line or build a well. In the past decade, Water.org

has mobilized over 1.1 billion dollars in financing to create WaterCredit loans that have served over 15 million people. In 2009, Barenberg co-authored the first research paper on WaterCredit. "The 2009 paper found that the saving on health care was more than enough to cover the costs of the loans," he said. "However, that research was based on anecdotal evidence from interviews we conducted in Tamil Nadu, India. This new research grant comes with data from thousands of borrowers across three countries allowing rigorous statistical tests [to determine] if borrowers are better off."
