Mapping New Pathways

Forging a Sustainable Future for Saint Joseph’s College

his issue of the magazine points toward some of the College’s initiatives to refresh and remake itself into an institution that better addresses the needs of our 21st century society while preparing students for productive citizenship within it. From an innovative center for nursing to new technologies in food production to cutting-edge science education programs, the College is positioning itself as a convener and problem solver, committed to excellence and guided by its core values. Yet, the national landscape for higher education has become increasingly complicated over the past decade. For example, during the spring 2017 semester, 2.4 million fewer students enrolled in higher education at all levels nationally than in the fall of 2011. Additionally, of the

Any liberal arts college that ignores these trends will likely experience an unsteady financial future. In order for small, liberal arts colleges to sustain themselves, they must reflect upon and innovate their business model, while honoring their mission. This is true for Saint Joseph’s College as well.

that has characterized its program for more than a century, we must diversify in order to prevail for another century. Like other liberal arts colleges, Saint Joseph’s College must channel its creative, intellectual energies into new pathways that can lead to greater institutional sustainability. Balancing innovation and tradition can be challenging and uncomfortable; yet, avoiding change is not an option for achieving sustainability. In order to adapt to changes in the overall needs of our state and nation, Saint Joseph’s College must challenge itself to remain at the cutting-edge and expand in some areas, while reconsidering our programs and contracting in other areas. To remain competitive, the College must be nimble and creative, while remaining true to its mission. The articles in this magazine share how members of the Saint Joseph’s College community have “heeded the inner call,” pursued their passion, and sought to make the world a better place. Alumni, staff, parents, government agencies, corporations, and friends over the past year have stood together, rolled up their sleeves and generously given of their expertise, their time, and resources to many projects, from the local to international level. We hope you will feel as proud of their contributions as we do. Together, we are partners in mapping new pathways and creating a vibrant future. For all of you, we are grateful.

Sea Change in Science

Department Receives National Science Foundation Grant BY PATRICIA ERIKSON

C

all them the SWAT team for the Sisters of Mercy’s Critical Concern for Earth. Over the past decade, science education at Saint Joseph’s College has undergone a sea change. Formerly split into the two departments of Biology and Natural Sciences and occupying outdated labs, more than a dozen faculty now work seamlessly as one Department of Sciences team in a shiny, renovated wing of Mercy Hall. On one hand, these scientists train the next generation of biologists, chemists, environmental scientists, marine scientists, and biochemists. On the other hand, they also nudge every student on campus into an understanding of the relationship between natural ecosystems and human lifeways by teaching the Core course Environmental Science 300: Ecology and the Environmental Challenge (ES300). They also serve the College’s large nursing program and the exercise science program by teaching the microbiology, chemistry, and anatomy and physiology requirements. If this team has their way, Saint Joseph’s College graduates will be better equipped to devise solu-

tions to the environmental problems we face as a society. This past year, the trio of Steven Jury (Sciences), Johan Erikson (Sciences), and Marion Young (Psychology) teamed up with Liz Schran (Advancement) and applied for a National Science Foundation (NSF) grant to fund the Saint Joseph’s College Science Scholars Program. The result? A $647,000 S-STEM grant award–the only award of its kind in Maine this year and the largest in the state, to date. In granting the award, NSF noted the demonstrated ability of a tight-knit faculty team to deliver their proposed intervention into a national problem. What problem? The low national rate of persistence for high-achieving, low-income science students to graduate from science programs and pursue STEM careers. When the grant application tallied the department’s track record of delivering innovative educational programming, the innovation was evident. The Sciences Department has been piloting project-based science education exten-

sively over the past ten years–from aquaculture research in Casco Bay to water quality analyses of local drinking water supplies. In 2014, the department rolled out the Environmental Science Semester (ESS), a nationally rare opportunity for students to immerse themselves–full time, for a full semester, and entirely off campus–in honing their field science skills in oceanography, climate change, glacial geology and marine ecology. Here enters an important factor in students’ educational success: the power of cohort. While scholarship funding helps science students enter college, research shows that funding alone is insufficient to get them through graduation and into a STEM career. These field programs are the crucible for building teams of student scientists. As one Environmental Science Semester student described it, “Working together in the field makes it easier to come out of your comfort zone. It makes it easier to work with each other. Everything goes a little more smoothly than if we didn’t know each other very well.” Saint Joseph’s College’s nationally innovative field research programming will launch the Science Scholars into their field projects in August of 2018. Call it pre-season for scientists. Even before the armada of parents move the Class of 2022 into their dorm rooms, the Saint Joseph’s College Science Scholars will embark upon a research experience—as a team—that will shape the rest of their lives.

Embracing a holistic approach to health & wellness | BY EMMA DEANS

O

utside the classroom window, blustery weather tugs the yellow and orange leaves from the maple trees. While the harvest season and holidays like Thanksgiving typically prompt reflection on the hardships that many people face, Dr. Karen Croteau is teaching students how to think about this every day. “We often don’t realize that just who we are gives us certain advantages,” says Dr. Croteau to her Health Promotion and Organization class. She clicks through a PowerPoint presentation during a morning lecture in Alfond Hall, walking around the room as she explains health complexities on both micro and macro levels. “Health disparities are unfair differences in equity, and the circumstances we are born into are social determinants of health,” she says to students. The twelve students open their laptops and scroll through the CDC Health Disparities and Inequalities Report, analyzing statistics about birth rates, high risk occupations, and binge drinking. They then watch a video about two men raised in very different households—one home with a stable income, the other home subsisting below the poverty level. In a follow-up discussion, one student observes the direct correlation between economic inequality and poor health. “He’s coping with stress through alcohol and cigarettes,” she says. The students in this class are enrolled in the Health and Wellness Promotion major, added to the College in the 2013-14 school year. Dr. Cro-

teau teaches in this program alongside Suellen Chaplin-Beckett, who previously taught in Saint Joseph’s nursing program. The new major offers a holistic curriculum spanning areas of physical, social, and emotional wellbeing for individuals and for communities. It prepares graduates for a range of careers in public health, corporate wellness, or clinical work, and can provide an alternative for nursing students who realize they would like to pursue a different aspect of healthcare. Students can also enroll in a PreOccupational Therapy track, which sets them on the path to graduate school. Dr. Croteau oversees wellness internships and guides students in Health Promotion and Organization through a campus-wide health survey project. “Underlying factors can impact people even if their economic conditions improve. Factors like gender, disabilities, and the social construct of race affect overall quality of life,” she explains. “That’s why it’s important to create community needs assessments and intervention plans.”

Curating Governor Brennan’s Legacy William Hardiman ’19 and Raymond Mosca ’19 | BY PATRICIA ERIKSON

T

he Maine Irish Heritage Center (MIHC) in Portland and Saint Joseph’s College share at least three things: Irish roots, people dedicated to preserving history, and a formal partnership that has created internship opportunities for students. William Hardiman ’19 (Brockton, MA) and Raymond Mosca ’19 (Augusta, ME)—both Political Science majors—served as interns in the Governor Joseph E. Brennan Archives this spring. Under the mentorship of Archive Committee member Charlie Lane, Mosca and Hardiman dedicated themselves to making the archives more accessible to the public. Born and raised on Portland’s Munjoy Hill, once an East End Irish neighborhood, Governor Joseph E. Brennan (Hon. ’82) graduated from Boston College and went on to serve Portland and Maine as State Representative, Attorney General, State Senator, U.S. Representative, and as a two-term Governor. Brennan donated a portion of his records to MIHC and the archives opened for research and display in 2016. As Hardiman and Mosca neared the end of their internship, the two enjoyed an opportunity to meet the former governor himself in Portland. Once they settled around a conference table, Hardiman and Mosca took the opportunity to ask the questions that had bubbled up during their research: what drove you to run for office? How did you stay involved after losing an election? Brennan leaned forward and met their curiosity with as much humor as intense reflection. “If you want to make life better for people there is no better place than political service. It’s an exciting life. If I can get elected, anyone can! But, if you lose, just get up and keep running. Believe in something. Argue for it, but don’t get committed to it until you hear the other side. You must listen to the other side! I accomplished what I accomplished by getting people smarter than me on my team, building a rapport, and giving them a long leash. If you’re getting credit to work in the archives, you’re already a politician!” Reflections on the internship: “Working with the Governor Brennan Archives this semester has been a remarkable opportunity- from studying old speeches, to analyzing polling data, to discovering documents of historic significance. This internship has truly provided a unique perspective on Maine politics. As an

individual with aspirations in the public sector, proximity to such relevant documents has provided an insider’s look at the issues that Maine people care about. What impressed me most about meeting Governor Brennan was his humility and keen insights into the world today. For over 40 years, he has been committed to public service and helping the people of Maine and the United States. Through our work at the Maine Irish Heritage Center, it was extremely rewarding to contribute to his legacy,” said Raymond Mosca ‘19 of Augusta. “The Brennan Archives were one of the most interesting things I have ever experienced. It

was amazing to see how Governor Brennan was able to be a congressman, but also still feel the pulse of his constituents’ concerns, especially in his second term in Congress when he decided to run for Governor a third time. It was amazing to see all of the hard work it took to run congressional offices, while at the same time seeking the governorship. It showed this was just not a onecontinued on p.39 >

Turning Passion into Service David Stratton ‘19 shares his devotion to justice BY MATTHEW GREGOIRE ‘18

David isn’t sure how old he was when his desire to become a detective took hold of him, but his passion for this career guides much of what he does. Captain David Stratton ‘19 was recognized by the Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office with the Maine Sheriffs’ Association Outstanding Achievement Award and the Community Service Award.

O

n a sunny afternoon, I entered Baggot Street Café to meet with David Stratton ’19 of Raymond, Maine. My assignment was to interview David about his experience as a criminal justice major, but I had never met him before. I imagined someone intimidating in stature and demeanor, someone befitting of the police stereotype so often perpetuated in the media these past few years. But, when David finally approached to introduce himself, he overturned that stereotype. Well spoken with a very kind presence, I sensed that David would become a policeman that anyone would feel comfortable approaching. Many children can remember a time when they wanted to be a police officer. David isn’t sure how old he was when his desire to become a detective took hold of him, but his passion for this career guides much of what he does, on campus as a criminal justice major and off campus as a security guard.

“I just knew that’s what I wanted to do, I can’t remember any one thing that started it. I just knew that’s where I wanted to go,” David said. At the age of 15, David joined the Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office Explorer Post 3. The Explorer program is built to teach leadership and community skills that can be applied to any profession, with a more specific focus on law enforcement. The passion for becoming a police detective drove him to enroll at Saint Joseph’s College as a criminal justice major. David’s aunt, a Saint Joseph’s College staff member, helped him to discover the program after she learned about it on campus one day and remembered her nephew’s interest in criminal justice. Saint Joseph’s criminal justice program familiarizes students with the theory and practice of crime, justice, and the United States criminal justice system. Students majoring in criminal justice, like David, receive a foundation in theory and research as well as opportunities for practical application through research. In the five years since joining Explorer Post 3, David has accrued 300 hours worth of community service hours, an admirable record. He takes part in countless events, including spaghetti dinners, bottle drives, and honor guard detail. Last year, the Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office recognized David’s accomplishment with the Outstanding Achievement Award. In addition to his community service, David has participated twice in the Maine Youth Law Enforcement Explorer Academy. He first attended as a cadet– training with drills in stopping traffic and clearing buildings–before moving up the ranks to help teach others those same skills. David gains experience in criminal justice through his job as a security guard at the Maine Mall. A year and a half ago, he was recommended for the job based on his stellar reputation. From patrolling on foot through the building to cruising the parking lots in a vehicle to handling dispatch duties, David says he’s “getting a taste of what it’s like to be in the criminal justice field.” Once he graduates, David plans to continue on the path of becoming a detective. Given how hard he’s working at building the skills and the reputation needed to enter this field, it’s clear that he will excel at it.

Breaking through the Silence

Thao Kieu ’18 Infuses Art with Activism BY MATTHEW GREGOIRE ’18 (based upon an interview by Lauren Legere ’17)

O

n any given day, you might find Thao Kieu ’18 of South Portland painting in the art studio or out working on her photography, that is, if she isn’t busy crafting soap and jewelry from honeybee products. When Kieu enrolled at Saint Joseph’s College, she never expected to become a Fine Arts major, let alone an artist in a juried exhibition. “The major kind of found me,” Kieu said. An elective course in Ceramics first drew her eye, so she enrolled. Soon after, she sat in on a colloquium. Thao’s three years of commitment to art and photography created an opportunity this past winter when her photograph series, titled “Them,” was accepted into a juried exhibition at the Hera Gallery in Wakefield, Rhode Island. The photographs present raw images from Polaroids of survivors of sexual assault, and they hold deep meaning both for Thao herself and her audience. Thao is weaving her psychology minor into her artwork, something she hopes will benefit those suffering from mental illness. “I chose to open up and to shine light and awareness on mental illness, instead of shaming and leaving them in the dark. “My work is about healing and overcoming trauma. My process involves reaching out to the community and forming relationships with others who have experienced a time of darkness. I use past events that have impacted me most in life as a platform to express my work. By exposing myself and what I have been through, I show that I am also still working on my own healing journey. I want to help others know that they are not alone, so they can begin their healing, too. “I wanted to break the silence and the stigmas that surround sexual assault. By presenting how each survivor wanted to be photographed, and using words that they chose, I try to empower each individual to express the unspoken. I inter-

viewed the survivors in a bedroom setting because it was a place that someone would find comfort, but others full of nightmares, terrors, and PTSD. I hope to spark a fire that ignites people to break the silence.” At the end of the “Them” exhibition, she participated in a public round table of artists. About that experience, she said, “I met some awesome artists there and I still keep in touch with them.” She hopes that her art will speak not only to those who experience sexual assault or mental illness, but to anyone who remains unaware of the struggles faced by those around them. Since the exhibit, Thao has been building her art portfolio, working part time at the Portland Children’s Museum, and beekeeping at The Honey Exchange (including using the product to make soaps and resin jewelry). Although she hopes to attend graduate school, she wants to first take time to travel coast-to-coast in a van, visiting children’s museums and finding artist residencies along the way. No matter what her post-graduation plans, it is clear that Thao’s talent has made an impact, and will continue to for years to come.

The Danger of Deer Ticks Erick Schadler ’18 raises awareness through scientific research BY EMMA DEANS

Erick Schadler ’18 constructed a flag using a towel and a wooden stick to collect ticks this summer for his research project. He discovered that 79.2 percent of the ticks he collected carried the causative agent of Lyme disease, 30.2 percent of the ticks carried the causative agent of anaplasmosis, and 24.5 percent carried both causative agents.

S

ummer in Maine means pleasant days by the lake, scenic strolls through the woods, and evening bonfires with friends. It’s a time when tourists and residents alike seek to spend as much time as possible outside. It’s also a time of year when public health concerns rise about the creeping, crawling arachnids you sometimes feel moving up your leg or across your arm: ticks. Enter Erick Schadler ’18, a biology major from Raymond, Maine. Erick pursued a summer research project to compare the abundance of blacklegged ticks (Ixodes scapularis) by sex and age. He also investigated the infection rates of the bacteria that is the causative agent of Lyme disease (Borrelia burgdorferi) and of the bacteria that is the causative agent of anaplasmosis (Anaplasma phagocytophilum). Erick obtained financial support for this project through the Maine Space Grant Consortium, an affiliate that

funds research of interest to NASA through the congressionally established National Space Grant College and Fellowship Program. Erick focused his study on a section of brush along power lines in Raymond. He constructed a flag using a towel and a wooden stick, which he dragged across the ground as he walked 30 meters between 2-5 p.m. on three sunny and partly cloudy days (68-75 degrees Fahrenheit), spaced five days apart. The results were stunning. By simply dragging the small flag along a short stretch of brush, Erick collected 53 blacklegged ticks, also known as deer ticks. “About half landed on the flag, half on me,” he explained. After collecting the specimens, he used tweezers to remove them from the towel and placed them in 70 percent ethanol to preserve for testing in the genetics lab at Saint Joseph’s College. Wearing a white lab coat and purple gloves, he chopped up the ticks, and implemented methods of DNA extraction, DNA amplification by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), and gel electrophoresis to determine if the 24 adult females, 21 adult males, and eight nymphs contained either of the two bacteria. He discovered that 79.2 percent of ticks carried the causative agent of Lyme disease, 30.2 percent of the ticks carried the causative agent of anaplasmosis, and 24.5 percent carried both causative agents. Maine Medical Center Research Institute provided Erick with controls for determining these rates and Erick received guidance for the entire project from his advisor Dr. Lucas Bernacki, professor of sciences at Saint Joseph’s College. While Erick knew he would be exposed to several ticks, he didn’t think he would find so many. “The abundance of Ixodes scapularis was the most surprising aspect,” he said. Erick has continued his research this fall, but switched from studying deer ticks to dog ticks in Raymond. He said that having the opportunity to conduct independent research at Saint Joseph’s College has been valuable and “has opened a lot of doors for me.” He is most interested in the intersection of science and healthcare. “The genetic testing procedure is used at all kinds of labs. It will be good for employers to see that I have this experience,” he said.

“It has been a dream to go to the master’s level. I wanted to become more independent and autonomous. I’m just amazed that I made it through with fulltime work and kids to manage. It was SO much. But, I’m in awe that I’m here at graduation. I made it.” Stanley Sluzenski, MSEd Charlotte, ME

“I’ve been teaching 18 years and I have seen many times that education leads to advancement of opportunity, so I decided to go for it. I didn’t know how applicable the courses in organization, planning, and leadership would be for me, but all of the papers and topics I could customize for my school. I have an interview on Monday for a director position!” Andrea Nansteel, MSN in Education Palmerton, PA

“I wanted to advance in my profession. I had to manage a full-time job with being a part-time student. I found the coursework was on par with what I have done elsewhere, but I was amazed that I was able to do it all, to get through. It feels wonderful, a great sense of accomplishment. Now I want to apply for clinical instructor positions so I can teach undergraduates.”

Words of Wisdom from Our Graduate Students Catherine Mackey, MA in Pastoral Theology

Syracuse, NY

“I thought I would just take a few courses online at Saint Joseph’s College, but I loved it so much that I kept going for my MA in Pastoral Theology. As an undergraduate, I never had the incredible relationships that I have had with this online program. The professors were second to none. They were professional, brilliant, compassionate, loving. By the end, they were my friends. When I was going through a terrible time with my ill mother while I was taking care of my children, working two jobs, 65-70 hours per week, they kept asking me how my mom was. They prayed for my mom. They offered an extension. I never ended up using the extension. I just needed to know that it would be okay, you know? I didn’t think I could do this, to make it through. This program helped me do this for myself and be present for them at the same time.”

Brenda Klahn, MSN Oregon, WI

“I work now as a hospital nurse, addressing infection control and employee health. By educating staff, I help to reduce infection rates. I wanted to move into an adjunct teaching position to help address the shortage of nurses. I was surprised how much I could learn online. You would think that you have to be in a classroom to learn. But the way you could read the thoughts of others on the discussion board was challenging and interesting. It was tough getting through though; it wasn’t easy.”

The Future of Farming Saint Joseph’s College Embarks Upon Hydroponic Farming BY ELYSE CAIAZZO ‘18

ehind Pearson’s Café, a 320-square-foot shipping container provides over 1,000 students, faculty and staff with fresh, local, and sustainable lettuce, hearty greens, and herbs. The container holds over 4,500 plants in 256 vertical hydroponic towers which are nurtured by two Saint Joseph’s College staff members, Hilary Lamkin and Sue Wilson. As part of Hannaford Supermarkets’ and Saint Joseph’s College’s missions for sustainability, the two enterprises collaborated to provide the College with the opportunity to house the first Freight Farm in Maine. Freight Farm, a Bostonbased agriculture technology company, builds shipping containers with environmental controls and indoor growing technology for fresh food production in any environment. The company’s mission strives to eliminate the negative effects of food production and distribution, empowering anyone to grow year-round local, fresh produce anywhere. The Leafy Green Machine™ generously donated by Hannaford’s Supermarket, grows crops hydroponically, without soil or sunlight, in a planter with nutrient rich peat moss, an irrigation system, and red and blue LED lights. By vertically growing the food, the container maximizes space production and creates a highdensity growing environment. Each 320-squarefoot box can use less than ten gallons of water a day because it captures humidity and filters it back into the farm; that’s about 90% less water than a traditional farm needs. This summer, Sue and Hilary spent two days in Boston working with the many Freight Farm experts on how to operate the entire system from electrical and technological, to the efficient process of growing without playing in the soil. Starting with germination, each tray consists of 200 peat moss pods with seeds immersed inside, with a lid covering the whole tray, allowing the first sprout to blossom. After one week, the tray moves under LED lights with proper nutrient water saturating into each pod. The leafy greens are ready to be transferred to the vertical towers after two weeks of growth. The farm stays at a cool temperature of 50 degrees for maximum production. When staff enter the Freight Farm in the morning, the leafy greens have already gone through their “day time” exposure to 18 hours of LED lighting from 3 p.m. to 9 a.m.

Sue and Hilary are thrilled to be working in such a new and innovative space and enjoy every step of the process from planting to harvesting. They hope to eventually provide all the lettuce necessary for Pearson’s Café and are working hard to achieve that goal in the months to come. As students walk up to the salad bar, they will have a true connection with their food by knowing and seeing the workers inside the Freight Farm. This exposure could lead to many opportunities for students interested in hydroponics to work directly with the freight farmers and the innovative technology powering the Leafy Green Machine.™

As students walk up to the salad bar, they will have a true connection with their food by knowing and seeing the workers inside the Freight Farm.

SEEDS OF CHANGE The Freight Farm is the first iteration of a much larger venture at the College: the Institute for Local Food Systems Innovation. On September 21, 2017 Saint Joseph’s College announced the launch of the Institute For Local Food Systems Innovation. With startup funds of nearly $4 million (through a federal grant and private donations) the institute will boost production for Maine’s local food and beverage industry. At the press conference, U.S. Representative Chellie Pingree said, “The Institute will fill key needs to strengthen our food system and grow our economy in Maine.” She noted that it will support the creation of new jobs,

“which is perfectly in line with the Greater Portland region’s goals of doubling the region’s food manufacturing employment in ten years.” To pursue the goal of enhancing economic development regionally, the College will build a food processing kitchen, develop competency-based educational programming, expand the current land-based crop and livestock farm, and enhance agritourism operations. And, in an operation much larger than the Freight Farm, the College will build a ¼ acre hydroponic greenhouse which will grow produce using mineral nutrient solutions rather than soil.

Without Warning The power of love on a Haiti service trip STORY AND PHOTOS BY EMILY GERARDO, RN, BSN ADJUNCT CLINICAL FACULTY

T

hey said falling in love should be expected, but that it happens without warning. I wasn’t looking for it. Haiti was a place I had wanted to see, a people I had wanted to meet. I was ready to work there, to be of service.

“I learned… that love comes free, smiling is a universal language, and giving even when you, yourself, have so little is so powerful.” MOLLY COBB ‘19, NURSING ABOVE Maggie Parks, a

returning PID volunteer, joined the first SJC group. Maggie lives and works in NY, and was a great addition to our group. Like the rest of us, she enjoyed hanging out with the kids. Maggie sponsors a child in Haiti (not pictured here).

Arriving at Logan International Airport, two Saint Joseph’s College nursing students, who I had taught the previous semester, greeted me. Our trip leader was Mary Becker Rose ‘15, hired as a new grad into her first job. Once a newly registered nurse stepping into an unfamiliar place, she was now leading me as I stepped into my own unfamiliar. Students from diverse disciplines traveled with us; all shared a love for people and a drive to make a difference. Things were off to a great start. Except for her breathing, the patient lay motionless. Our team had picked her up off of her bed of cardboard and styrofoam in a single room where flies buzzed and thin shafts of sun passed through

where the wall did not fit together. She lived on a dump with pigs, dogs, and goats. Over the past week, I had seen only sadness in her eyes, heard only fatigue in her voice. While I examined the patient’s children, one of our students slipped behind the gauzy curtain and took the mother’s hand in her own. The mother smiled for the first time. A stranger’s hand held her own. A prayer was uttered in a language she did not speak. Peace became suddenly palpable. I pride myself in the care I provide my patients, yet in that moment, a student reminded me of what was most important. Medical missions and service trips have taught me more about myself than anything else. From Libya to Haiti, to wherever is next. I have tasted poverty from the inside out–from dark huts with mud walls to a fire boiling worms out of water. I have watched children escape genocide, only to succumb to the bite of a mosquito. I have seen women lying on earthen floors, too weak to move, too scared to speak, too sick to care. Poverty is more than a zone we can draw haphazardly on a map; it is the sights and sounds and smells of empty, of bare, of discarded. It must be stepped into and inhaled.

student Mikayla Cook, smiling with two young patients who came to the PID clinic for a medical evaluation.

When poverty stares you in the eye, then you see not only despair, but also hope. You feel the hope rising up from people who will not be silenced, from those who may be slowed down, but who never stop dreaming. Even from the surface of a dump, a community rises, one family at a time. Was it the people or the place? Was it the food or the black-black coffee? Certainly both students and alumni made it what it was for me: a commitment to a vision of Mercy. We are caring, robust, and fierce warrior advocates who fight for love and for life. We are tired and humble, relentlessly helping people who are struggling for another tomorrow. Haiti is a place that impacted each of us more than what we could have imagined. Many of us are still unpacking, long after our luggage has been unzipped and put away.

COLLEGE SERVICE TRIPS offer invaluable experiences for students, regardless of their area of study. With its dual focus, students from any program can help Haitian communities with home building and can participate in clinical activities, under the supervision of licensed nurses. In six years of nursing, Emily Gerardo has served on eight medical missions. She has cofounded a non-profit that plans and coordinates annual medical missions to Zanzibar. She has worked for Doctors Without Borders, managing outpatient clinics in refugee camps in Africa and executing vaccination campaigns there.

Heeding the Inner Call How Dr. Jeanne Donlevy Arnold ’83 (Hon. ‘17) has brought her passion and expertise to Saint Joseph’s College | BY PATRICIA ERIKSON

16 | SAINT JOSEPH’S MAGAZINE

G

rowing up as the daughter of two bluecollar workers in the village of Chepachet in northwestern Rhode Island, Jeanne Donlevy Arnold ’83 (Hon. ’17) didn’t expect to distinguish herself as an award-winning philanthropist who would pledge the largest gift by any individual in Saint Joseph’s College’s 105-year history. Arnold’s journey has been a remarkable one. Not only has she experienced dramatic changes in women’s role in the healthcare profession, she has had a hand in creating that transformation. A recipient of a bachelor’s degree from Saint Joseph’s College in 1983 and an honorary Doctorate in Public Service at this year’s commencement, Dr. Arnold has turned her expertise, her passion, and her philanthropic support towards her alma mater. Last year, she joined the Board of Trustees. This year she stepped forward to lead a campaign to create the Center for Nursing Innovation. At her side stands a national network of alumni and friends of the College who have accepted the role of Nursing Ambassadors to support this campaign. When Arnold describes the start of her career in the 1960s, she remembers how young women were encouraged–by everything from social norms to guidance counseling–to consider only three careers: teaching, home economics, and nursing. She made this choice easily. “I can’t remember when I didn’t want to be a nurse, caring for people, doing what you could to help others. My father wanted me to be a teacher. But, I wasn’t interested in that and we couldn’t have afforded University of Rhode Island for a four-year degree anyway. As a three-year diploma, nursing was more accessible financially, especially with scholarships. Four-year degrees in nursing weren’t stressed much at that time. During our senior year we staffed the hospital and as soon as we graduated, there was never a question that we would get work. We were ready to take care of patients.” Years of patient care experience has shaped how Arnold feels about the nursing program at Saint Joseph’s College and how she approaches healthcare administration.

“Open heart surgery was so dangerous when I started nursing. In those days, a priest would come the night before and give the patient their Last Rites. You wouldn’t believe what the cardiac equipment looked like: huge boxes of computers and suctions. Today everything is so tiny. There was a patient named Dottie. She needed to have the valves in her heart rebuilt. Taking care of her in post-op made a big impression on me. It was a very scary procedure in those years, but she went into it with such hope and strength. The surgery went well and she survived it. I believe in medicine, obviously, but I think that if you truly believe that things will go well, it helps shape the outcome. I still share Dottie’s story with patients to this day, especially how her positive outlook had such an influence.”

“Because it is a faith-based college and has developed its nursing program with the call to care for the whole person–body, soul, and spirit–Saint Joseph’s College is unique in Maine and nationally.”

I BELIEVE. “Believe is a powerful word. Believe in yourself. Believe in your dreams and all the possibilities they hold. Believe in causes and missions that are bigger than you. Because I believe in Saint Joseph’s College and its mission, I decided, along with my husband, Ed, to pledge a leadership gift of $2 million dollars to this Campaign to Create the Center for Nursing Innovation at Saint Joseph’s College. Today, Ed and I are thankful to be able to support the Center for Nursing Innovation and Saint Joseph’s College because we believe. Please join us, stay involved, believe in your alma mater … and believe in your dreams,” said Arnold, the retired Senior Vice President of Good Samaritan Hospital, at the 2017 Commencement. In January, when the Harold Alfond Foundation announced

its lead, challenge grant of $1.5 million to support Saint Joseph’s College’s ambitious plan for a Center for Nursing Innovation, Arnold agreed to serve as campaign chair and lead the effort to raise $3.5 million in matching funds.

As Arnold’s career advanced from staff nurse to critical care nurse to head nurse of a coronary care unit in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, her three-year degree remained a barrier for her. She identified Saint Joseph’s College because of its pioneering program that began in the 1970s. “I connected with Saint Joseph’s College because it offered a distance learning program in nursing that awarded credits for having worked as a nurse. Plus, I could earn my bachelor’s degree while still working. I kept my credibility with the nursing staff, but developed my opportunity to strive for leadership and to make a difference. Because it is a faith-based college and has developed its nursing program with the call to care for the whole person–body, soul, and spirit–Saint Joseph’s College is unique in Maine and nationally.”

“Because I believe in Saint Joseph’s College and its mission, I decided, along with my husband, Ed, to pledge a leadership gift of $2 million to this Campaign to Create the Center for Nursing Innovation.” Even when she secured a bachelor’s degree at Saint Joseph’s College, she faced other challenges, including the shifting gender roles for women in leadership. Although petite in stature, Arnold’s bold, yet kind, demeanor made her stand out as a problem solver who truly understood nursing. “At that time, we had to get doctors to understand that women could be valuable as administrators. There was an old boy network that you had to work through. Traditionally, you see, the nursing directors wore white uniforms. As I became an administrator, I still wore the white uniform once a week and made rounds to maintain my connection to patient care. But nursing still was predominantly female. So when executive nurses, like myself, began to transition from 18 | SAINT JOSEPH’S MAGAZINE

the white uniform to business attire, it was a very visible and challenging professional transition.” But Arnold navigated this changing landscape, moving from Director of Nursing and Chief Operating Officer at Ephrata Community Hospital to the Chief Operating Officer at Community General Hospital in Reading, Pennsylvania. At one point, when hospitals were experiencing low patient censuses, yet homecare was booming, Arnold saw that her nurses were being asked to take time off without pay. Her response? She developed a program to change the whole mode of health care–a Collaborative Delivery Model–where hospital nurses were cross-trained to provide a continuum of care between hospital care and homecare. “The model was published and it generated team visits from several different countries. As long as I could show it made sense financially and for the patient, I had the freedom to change care.” Nurses were able to work across diverse modes of patient care and stay working full time. While serving as Senior Vice President for Patient-Care Services at Good Samaritan Hospital in Lebanon, Pennsylvania, Jeanne met–and eventually married–businessman and philanthropist Ed Arnold. Although she retired from administration, she dedicated herself to volunteering and supporting a vast array of organizations at the local, regional, and national level, including Penn State Children’s Hospital, Lebanon Valley College, and the Boy Scouts of America, to name a few. Since joining the Saint Joseph’s College Board of Trustees and agreeing to serve as Chair of the Center for Nursing Innovation campaign, Arnold has returned to Saint Joseph’s College to make a difference for the nursing program at her alma mater. “Nurses are at the forefront of healthcare, crafting and innovating changes. Nurses are leaders and advocates for the patient—who is at the center of healthcare. The students in the Saint Joseph’s College nursing programs—both on-campus and online—already have heeded that inner call, that vocation so to speak, to help others in the most fundamental way, through patient care.” “But without state-of-the-art spaces and the programs to deliver and enhance their nursing education, dedicated nurses—both those who are still students, and those who are already practicing but need further education—are limited in their potential. That is why this campaign is so incredibly important. Saint Joseph’s has the dedicated faculty. It has students who have committed their lives to the nursing profession. It has a wonderful educational program foundation. But now, for the sake of these nursing students, for the sake of nursing, and for the sake of healthcare in Maine and nationally—much more is needed.”

n the summer of 2016, Dr. Anthony McGuire set off on a cross country road trip adventure which ended, as all great journeys do, with a new life chapter. Starting in California, he caravanned with his mother, son, and dog through the misty woods of Washington, among snow-capped mountains in Montana, across expansive grasslands of South Dakota, and beneath towering waterfalls at Niagara, until finally arriving at a small college nestled beside Sebago Lake in his home state of Maine—Saint Joseph’s College. Upon arriving, and as chair of the nursing department, Dr. McGuire promptly rolled up his sleeves to restructure the College’s nursing programs and elevate the level of workforce preparedness of its nursing graduates. Previously a faculty member at California State University in Long Beach, California, McGuire also serves as the nurse practitioner program director and a nursing professor at Saint Joseph’s College. Dr. McGuire brings measured insight to this position

with 31 years of experience as a registered nurse and 18 years of experience as a board-certified acute care nurse practitioner. Born in Alaska but raised in Gardiner, Maine, McGuire earned an associate’s degree in nursing from Central Maine Medical Center and a bachelor’s degree in business administration at the

But nursing, rather than business, called to him. “There’s a stigma associated with being a male in the nursing field. It’s something I work to change every day,” he explains. He continued to explore the country as a traveling nurse, working in Boston, New York, Miami, Virginia, and throughout California. WINTER 2017/18 | 19

Then, he decided to further his education, earning a bachelor’s degree in nursing from California State University—Long Beach, and master’s and doctoral degrees in nursing from the University of California—Los Angeles. Having lived away from his home state for most of his adult life, McGuire saw the opportunity at Saint Joseph’s College to come home and still serve his profession. Dr. McGuire is already implementing steps to boost the rigor of the nursing admissions process and the qualifications of faculty, bringing the number of doctorally prepared faculty to five. He created a new position, family nurse practitioner coordinator, filled by Kelly Hudock, CRNP, DNP, which has helped streamline communications.

To this end, he has formed a partnership with Maine Medical Center through which a cohort of 18-24 undergraduate unlicensed staff will complete a 2 ½ year program. Maine Med will provide the facilities; Saint Joseph’s College will provide the degree. It’s just one way he envisions the College addressing the statewide demand for licensed nurses. “I want to use my three plus decades of experience and infuse it into this institution to make it the best it can be. I want a personal legacy of strengthening the nursing population in Maine,” he says. Dr. McGuire is a fellow for the American Heart Association, chair of the program committee at the Western Institute of Nursing, and an ambassador to the American Association of Critical Care Nurses. His research deals with the effects of depression in cardiovascular patients with a specific focus on acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients, the utilization of bedside nurses in the identification of depression, and outcomes mediated by depression in this population of patients.

That’s where she heard the news about the creation of the Center for Nursing Innovation at Saint Joseph’s College. “I didn’t know anything about the new Center, but the fact that the College is pushing to get more alums involved in this initiative helped me get on board. When I heard, I wanted to help.” Vontell knows firsthand about the importance of nurses and the nationwide nursing shortage.“When my class graduated from Saint Joseph’s College in 1982, that was the era of the first nationwide nursing shortage.

She created an endowed scholarship for first-generation nursing students from Maine and she dedicated it to her parents, naming it the George and Ruth Jones Nursing Endowed Scholarship. “My parents didn’t go to college. There were a lot of young women in my class who were first-generation college students as well. We all received financial aid and couldn’t have done it without that support. My parents wanted me to go to college, so this scholarship is in their honor.”

As an advocate for the BSN degree, Vontell was happy to support a scholarship for BSN students. “Since Saint Joseph’s, many of my classmates have gone on to earn advanced degrees. At an informal get-together at my house in the summer of 2016 with six alumnae, four had advanced degrees – a DNP (Robin Maloney McGuinness ’82), a pediatric NP (Karen Wheeler Madden ’82), an MSN (Sue Walsh Toolin ’82 is an educator in the ICU at UVM Medical Center), and then myself. My BSN prepared me to enter a Master’s degree program at the University of Connecticut. I think earning a BSN is a springboard to furthering your career!” To help the College address the national nursing shortage and establish the Center, Vontell has agreed to serve as a Nursing Ambassador, a nationwide network of alumni and friends of the College across 11 states who will support the Center in a number of ways, not only philanthropically, but by creating awareness of the Center through speaking and hosting events, writing letters, and participating in media coverage.

Big Tent 1. Noun. A group, movement, or philosophy that appeals or caters to, or encompasses, the broadest and most diverse amount of members possible.

F

rom their hometown in Strafford, New Hampshire, Karyn and Ron Fisher drive as many hours as needed to reach the home and away cross country competitions of their son, Lucas ’18. Monks runners find the couple cheering at the finish line for three quarters of the meets. “All kinds of extracurricular activities are very important to students, but especially athletics because it keeps them focused and on track. Being involved in an athletic program helps with time management and gives students less time to do nothing,” Karyn and Ron said.

When they noticed that Saint Joseph’s students needed shelter from sun and harsh weather at the meets, they decided to help. “We talked, as a family, to see what we could do and decided that we would donate a tent for the cross country team. Lucas is our oldest and the first to go off to college. We discussed how we could make a difference in his college life and this seemed important. Now, we enjoy seeing the students use the tent and they’re all so grateful–the coaches, too. It makes us happy to see them, cool and dry.” “We think the world of Saint Joseph’s College. It’s a great fit for our son, Lucas. We like that all sports are represented equally. You don’t always see

that at other campuses. We want to give to the College in ways that the whole campus could benefit. We don’t want to sit around and complain, but rather be part of the solution.” The Fishers have been generous in also donating to the new Saint Joseph’s College Athletics Complex (see pages 24–25). “The new track and turf field is fantastic! It gives the athletes what they need to be competitive. Big or small, a gift to the College will help. Student athletes appreciate it and it gives them a sense of pride to have good facilities.” If you would like to attend an athletics competition (and remember they compete all over New England and into Mid-Atlantic states), you can view schedules at www.gomonks.com.

Taylor Black ‘17 Named First Team CoSIDA Academic All American BY COREY MCCARTHY

T

aylor Black ’17 of Cardiff by the Sea, California is pursuing his passion for athletics and wellness by attending Northeastern University and studying Physical Therapy. But in September, he took some time to return to campus for the Alumni Baseball Game and receive his hardware from College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) for his 2017 Academic All-America® Division III Baseball First Team accolades. Black is the first Saint Joseph’s athlete to garner First Team Academic All-America® honors and the second individual to be listed on one of the three Academic All-America® teams overall, as he joins former softball standout Alyssa Dunn ’11—a Second Team honoree in 2011—on the exclusive list. A standout–in the classroom as an Exercise Science major and on the field–Black was selected as the 2017 Great Northeast Athletic Conference (GNAC) Player of the Year and earned First Team All-GNAC honors for the third consecutive season after hitting .417 (53-127) with 37 runs, 12 doubles, four home runs, and 44 RBI during his final collegiate campaign. Associate Director of Athletics and Head Baseball Coach Will Sanborn said, “Taylor Black is an amazing young man, on and off the field. His commitment, lead-

Taylor Black is the first Saint Joseph’s College athlete to garner First Team Academic All-America® honors ership, and positive attitude are infectious. His athletic preparation is only matched by his dedication in the classroom. Taylor is a great example of what it means to be a Saint Joseph’s College student-athlete. He has brought great distinction to Saint Joseph’s College by being named a CoSIDA First Team Academic All-American.” Black was also recognized as one of the top players in New England this spring with First Team All-Region honors from D3Baseball.com, ABCA/Rawlings, and the New England Intercollegiate Baseball Association (NEIBA). A captain for the Monks last spring, Black helped lead the Royal Blue to a 31-8 overall record with a 13-1 mark in GNAC play and was a key cog for an SJC offense that ranked in the top 10 nationally in a handful of statistical categories. Black is the only player from the 68 teams in the New England Region to collect First Team acclaim and is one of five individuals hailing from the largest region in NCAA DIII Baseball to be listed on one of the three Academic All-America® teams.

Baseball Coach Will Sanborn presented Taylor Black with his First Team Academic All-America® honors at the Alumni Baseball Game on campus in September.

y favorite kind of good news is hearing about people who are being helped. As alumni, I’m sure we can all remember back when we were students and needed a little help. I’d like to talk about some new and growing scholarships that are helping students. For several years, one of the main goals of the Alumni Association Board was to establish an endowed scholarship that would be given annually to an SJC student. I am proud to say that this goal has been accomplished and the first Alumni Association Scholarship was awarded to Brendon Keady ’20 this year. I would like to thank all of you who have attended Alumni Association events (Ice Bar, Alumni Weekend, Monktoberfest) and have bought raffle tickets or bid on auction items while at those events—you have made this happen! The good news doesn’t stop here. For those of you not familiar with the Rairdon family, let me just say that they are absolutely amazing people. The Rairdons started the Matthew Rairdon Scholarship to honor their son, an SJC graduate, who was tragically taken from us all several years ago. The scholarship is fueled by the annual Westbrook Strong 5K road race. I have run in this race each of its first four years (even on my wedding day!) and the sense of community and love that exist at this event are truly humbling. This race has become so successful that the Rairdon family has started an additional scholarship, which is such a wonderful and generous accomplishment (see p. 53). Since we’re talking about good news, I can’t help but mention the Alumni Association Board. In particular, I’d like to introduce and warmly welcome our three new board members: Mary Campbell ’85, Jeff Yaeger ’04, and Kaitlyn Morse ’09. These three alumni have already made themselves right at home. This is just a small sample of the great things that are happening on campus and in our Alumni Association. If it’s been a while since you’ve been back to campus, make the trip and see for yourself. You’ll be glad you did. I’ll see you at the next event!

Alumni Weekend 2017 T hank you to all Saint Joseph’s College alumni who joined us for a wonderful Alumni Weekend 2017! The festivities kicked off with a cruise around Casco Bay on Friday night aboard the Harbor Queen. Gulls swooped and wailed as a dramatic sunset swept across the city skyline. Bright blue dissolved to fiery pink and orange while drinks clinked and laughter echoed. Friends from as near as Portland and as far as California grooved to classics like Van Morrison’s “Brown Eyed Girl” and Three Dog Night’s “Joy to the World” performed live by the popular cover band the Time Pilots. Ryan Sullivan ’09 and Susan Jones Vontell ’82 brought tremendous energy to the dance floor and helped get the party started. The cruise provided a way for classmates Jeff Ferguson ’08, Andrew Vaughn ’07, and Nicholas Peterson ’05 to catch up and reminisce about their shared college memories—from celebrating the Red Sox World Series victory in 2004 to watching Law and Order marathons in the dorms during winter snowstorms. All three alumni are grateful for the lifelong friendships that were formed by their time at Saint Joseph’s College and emphasized the importance of the College’s close-knit community. Because they are now scattered between Augusta, Portland, and Boston, they were eager to sign up for the cruise. “I deeply appreci-

ate the College for taking the time to organize the events for alumni to reconnect. It is the focal point of my vacation,” said Andrew. Florida resident Michelle Cioci McKinnon ’64 joined her college roommate Judy Venasia Cavagaugh ’64 at the weekend’s events. Michelle had missed her 50th Reunion and wanted to tour the campus to see all that has changed since her last visit. The two caught up on family news, swiping through photos of their grandchildren on smartphones and reflecting on the College’s transformation since the 60s (when curfews might have been broken or nearly broken on occasion…). The weekend continued with a lobster bake down by the lake on Saturday evening, and finished with a jazz brunch in the Stone Barn on Sunday, with lots of fun activities in between. “Alums representing seven decades came back to campus,” said Jean Maginnis, Senior Director of Development. “The weekend was a great chance for alumni to reconnect with classmates, make new memories together, and show their pride in their excellent SJC education. I was struck by the number of alums who shared their excitement about the changes on campus and the strategic plan, which so clearly expresses a vision for sustaining a strong future for the Saint Joseph’s College education and values.”

A Commitment to Justice

Dr. Bradley Campbell ‘09 Appointed to Leadership Role Investigating Sexual Assault Crimes | BY EMMA DEANS Department investigated sex crimes. Campbell is now drawing from that experience as principal investigator for the Kentucky SAFE Kit Backlog Research Project. When a sexual assault crime is reported, a kit to gather evidence is used and submitted to a crime lab for analysis. However, during a 2015 audit, the State of Kentucky discovered that more than 3,300 of the sexual assault kits that had been collected in the state had never been submitted to a crime lab. The evidence was never tested. The discovery of this backlog prompted passage of a new state law that requires law enforcement agencies to collect kits within five days, to submit the kits to a laboratory within 30 days,

etween attending criminal justice classes in Alfond Hall classrooms that overlooked Sebago Lake and speaking at a press conference about new procedures for sexual assault crime investigations, Bradley Campbell ’09 has earned a doctoral degree at Sam Houston State University (SHSU) in Texas and accepted an assistant professor position at the University of Louisville, where his research is making news. “I was exposed to the importance of research to criminal justice practitioners through senior seminar and research methods courses in the criminal justice curriculum at Saint Joseph’s College, as well as through service learning projects in courses offered by Dr. Dale Brooker and Dr. Katrina Hoop. One of those projects involved a community survey to study citizens’ perceptions of the Westbrook Police Department,” Dr. Campbell explained. “Once we collected a representative sample, we analyzed the results and provided a report of our findings to the Westbrook Police Department. While working on this research project, I became hooked on collecting data that can help practitioners understand problems and find datadriven, evidence-based solutions to these problems,” he said. At SHSU, Campbell joined a research team led by Dr. William Wells, chair of the Department of Criminal Justice and Criminology, which conducted a study for the Houston Police Department; this led to changes in the way the

In January 2017 Attorney General Andy Beshear announced that Dr. Campbell would lead the investigation. “(Kentucky) wants to identify the root causes of the backlog so they can prevent it from happening again,” Campbell said. “This issue is important because these untested sexual assault kits may contain pieces of evidence that can hold offenders accountable and provide justice to victims.” This research project is one of the first of its kind to be conducted at the state level. “It’s going

Light Bulb Moments Jennifer Taylor, BSN ’03, MSEd ’09, on Innovation in Healthcare BY PATRICIA ERIKSON

“No matter where you are—in the home, in a clinic, in an ICU, or in telemedicine—nurses are going to be needed.”JENNIFER TAYLOR ‘09

hen asked for a quirky fact about herself, Jennifer Taylor, MSEd ’09, BSN ’03, RN-BC, CPN offers that her favorite innovation is the light bulb. What becomes clear after just a few minutes of speaking with Taylor, is that she is a brightly shining light herself in the field of healthcare, especially in digital health and innovation. Taylor’s journey from Boston to Standish and back again has been almost as direct as I-95. With a clarity of purpose and a drive to make a difference, Taylor’s innovative work at Boston Children’s Hospital took her across the country as a Senior Clinical Analyst in Clinical Education and Informatics and now back again to the bedside as a Staff Nurse. She has been working as a full-time pediatric nurse since she moved back to Massachusetts in 2005. She began working in an inpatient floor, but then moved into the Medical and Surgical Intensive Care Unit. “I work in critical care medicine which is a very fast-paced environment. The ICU offers amazing care. My work is different every single day. You never know what the day is going to bring. Patients can change in a minute. We work with neonates to critically ill adults during one of their most vulnerable moments of their life. Every minute matters. We care for the sickest of the sick. It’s never the same. It’s a challenge, but it’s very meaningful.” Taylor credits Saint Joseph’s College for shaping her approach as a healthcare practitioner, “I care for patients in the most holistic way I know how. I was taught that at Saint Joseph’s College. Holistic care means that small gestures matter. Touching the patient, listening to what the family says–you’re looking at the whole human and how everything is connected, not just one broken

piece. Learning how to connect with the patients and their families is the part of nursing that’s the most genuine at Saint Joseph’s College–pointing out a patient’s link to the outside world, their network, their community. Students still hear, ‘I can tell you’re a Saint Joseph’s College nurse based on the kind of care that you’re giving.’ All nurses work really hard. But we are taught how to look at the whole person and provide that care in a special way.” While Taylor is passionate about bedside care, her love for technology took her healthcare career in an interesting direction. “Nurses every single day are innovators, they just don’t recognize it in themselves. They take things apart to make it better and more useful for the patient. They use tape, scissors, whatever tool is handy to make care smoother and more efficient. Nurses are innovative by their trade. In 2009, Boston Children’s Hospital was transitioning to a new electronic health system.” Taylor joined a team of Informatics Nurses to help analyze, create, train and establish current and new workflow of technology at the bedside. Being grounded in good relationships with bedside nurses, her job was to ask: how can we make things better? What do you need that we are not providing? Then she would go back to the technology team full of engineers, innovators, and other analysts to see if the team could create and build the changes to help the care given at the bedside. At the same time, she was still providing bedside care in the MSICU as a staff nurse. What does innovation at the bedside mean? Taylor explained how all Pediatric and Neonatal medicine uses the weight of a child to calculate medication dosages. “All technology needs to continued on p. 39 >

Curating Governor Brennan’s Legacy man operation. Meeting the man himself, I could see why it could be balanced; he was extremely humble and intelligent. He was able to let others take large responsibility within his administration. He knew when people knew more about something than he did. He was a lawyer prior to being a politician which was very interesting as I plan to go to law school after graduating here at Saint Joseph’s. Overall the Brennan Archives were a rewarding experience. By working on this project, I hope that I have helped keep the legacy of Governor Brennan alive for generations to come,” said William Hardiman ‘19 of Brockton, MA.

A Commitment to Justice to hold offenders accountable and provide justice to victims.” This research project is one of the first of its kind to be conducted at the state level. “It’s going to provide valuable insight to not only Kentucky but to every other state facing this issue,”

Attorney General Beshear said. “Good or bad, all of the results will be transparent.” Saint Joseph’s College Criminal Justice Professor Dr. Dale Brooker remains in contact with Dr. Campbell, describing him as both a colleague and a friend. “Bradley is truly an example of our core values of excellence and integrity here at Saint Joseph’s College. He has embraced his role as a scholar with passion and he excels at what he does. In addition, it is evident (given his research) that he actively seeks to build trust in the community and with government agencies with the hope that his work is going to make a difference in our world.” Dr. Brooker points to Dr. Campbell as a role model for Saint Joseph’s College criminal justice students who are interested in the scholarly aspect of criminology and criminal justice. “These scholars are needed to critically investigate the criminal justice system, to address key challenges and uncover and expose issues so that policy initiatives can be informed by evidence-based practices,” he said.

Light Bulb Moments have the ability to meet this need. Boston Children’s made the decision to transition to new smart infusion medication pumps. It took a team of multiple people–led by myself and a pharmacist –to change the entire BCH community over to these new infusion pumps. Education, listening skills, being aware of the patients and staff needs, while being able to understand and translate to various departments and companies was key to success. We worked extremely hard, but the transition was smooth, fun and the infusion pumps have been up and running for awhile now. It was a massive challenge, full of lessons learned, strong relationships and extraordinary work!” Last year, Taylor shifted from working with innovative solutions in pediatric healthcare to working on some personal goals. “I miss working in technology full time and would go back to it in a heartbeat. Being a nurse is an honor and a privilege. I am so grateful to SJC for all the education, experiences and lessons it has provided me.” On a personal note, Jennifer will be getting married this fall to Billy Henderson. They look forward to beginning their new life together. WINTER 2017/18 | 39

2017 Annual Report of Giving As we continued to implement the initiatives of the “Sustaining the Promise” strategic plan, generous donors from all corners of our community stepped forward to support the College’s mission and initiatives. Collectively, this generosity resulted in $1.7 million raised in cash gifts, and an additional $7.1 million in multi-year pledges during Fiscal Year 2016-17. While the year featured several large leadership gifts, the College remains equally thankful for and proud of the philanthropy expressed by the hundreds of alumni, friends, parents, foundations, and corporations who joined us in support of the Annual Fund, scholarships, and other special projects.

Academics

Here are some highlights of how these generous gifts are working to place the College on a sustainable path of excellence.

The College embarked upon a $5 million campaign to create the Center for Nursing Innovation (see story p. 16). The Harold Alfond Foundation kicked off this campaign with a $1.5 million challenge gift and Dr. Jeanne Donlevy Arnold ’83 (Hon. ’17) of the Board of Trustees stepped forward with a $2 million leadership gift. The Sciences program experienced significant changes with the renovation of several laboratories and the receipt of a $647,000 grant from the National Science Foundation for the Science Scholars Program that will bring 18 new STEM majors to the College (see story p. 3).

Athletics The College completed and blessed the long-awaited first lighted collegiate turf field and track in southern Maine. The Putnam Family’s $200,000 Lightthe-Way Challenge initiated a campaign for the lights, a fundraising campaign with broad participation that met and surpassed its goal, raising over $414,000 (see story p. 24–p27).

As part of the College’s agritourism initiative, the Stone Barn hosted several farm-to-table dinners and dozens of community and private events this season. For more information: www.stonebarnmaine.com. Photo: Tonee Hebert.

Mission-Aligned Businesses The plan for sustaining the future of Saint Joseph’s includes the strategy of developing clusters that combine new educational programming with enterprises that achieve net positive revenue. We refer to these initiatives as our “mission-aligned businesses.” These initiatives have been carefully designed to draw upon the College’s greatest assets—our expansive lakeside campus and intellectual capital, while aligning with areas promising economic growth that supports Maine’s new economy. These new endeavors focus on three areas–sustainable agriculture, aging, and hospitality. Over time, revenue from these clusters will contribute to institutional overhead and, along with other growing revenues; help reduce the College’s dependence on tuition revenue from 92% to 85%. For example, the College has launched The Stone Barn at Sebago Lake, an exciting new indoor and outdoor venue located on the College’s farm. The restoration of the barn and its development as an agritourism center offers a new place for building community. The Stone Barn has hosted large and small gatherings such as a reception of the 250 thought leaders who are

“Shaping Maine,” our series of farmto-fork dinners, weddings, family celebrations, and College events. College staff manage these events, provide employment opportunities for students, increase our profile in the community, support the local food economy, and deliver new revenue to the College. The Institute for Local Food Systems Innovation expresses our shared Mercy mission to better our community while caring for Earth in sustainable ways. Our strategic plan identified local, sustainable food production and distribution as one of the areas where our skills as educators, as conveners, and as advocates for the environment, positioned us to address some of Maine’s most pressing economic and workforce preparation needs. The Institute will encompass five enterprises–a food manufacturing incubator, a hydroponic farm, a traditional crop and livestock farm, an agri-tourism center, and a hub for delivering workforce development training in a number of key areas. We are excited to announce that federal and corporate partners have joined us in generously supporting this goal of greater sustainable food production and security in Maine.

The Economic Development Administration (EDA) has given the College a $1.9 million matching grant for the development of the Institute for Local Foods Systems Innovation. Organic Nutrition, Inc. has donated $750,000 toward the match for the EDA grant to support the creation of its hydroponic farm. Hannaford Charitable Foundation donated $500,000 toward the EDA grant match and to create the Hannaford Food Venture Center within the Institute for Local Food Systems Innovation (ILFSI). The College’s strategic plan, “Sustaining the Promise,” is both a plan for the future and a promise that everything that we are doing today will sustain Saint Joseph’s for the future. In the next year we will take further steps to develop our Institute for Integrative Aging, a center for research, education, and communitycentered care for older adults. The value of MAB initiatives reaches far beyond finances, however. Our undergraduate students and communitybased learners will have access to new experiential education opportunities on campus in these three clusters associated with economic growth in our region.

WESTBROOK COMES ON STRONG AGAIN 5K Race Raises $20,000 for Matthew Rairdon ‘13 Memorial Nursing Scholarship | BY JEAN MAGINNIS Nearly 400 runners— from toddlers to seniors— took over the streets of Westbrook, Maine in July to run the fourth annual Westbrook Strong 5K to benefit the Matthew Rairdon ’13 Memorial Nursing Scholarship at Saint Joseph’s College. The tally at the end of the day set a record of $20,088 raised and added to the scholarship endowment. Westbrook Strong is the result of the efforts of the extended Rairdon family, volunteers from all over the Westbrook community, and generous sponsorships from local businesses.

Matthew’s parents, Laurie and Gary Rairdon P’13, visited campus this fall to meet this year’s recipients, Brianna Frank ’19 and Brittney Arsenault ’19. Laurie described, “There are no words that can adequately express what this means to our family. It feels like a ‘Love Run’—this is an environment that has a goal of celebrating his life and contributing to his legacy rather than winning the race...The number of people and companies that came together speaks volumes about the generosity of people.”

When her husband, John Waldron ’79, passed away suddenly in 2012, Mary Waldron (second from left) wanted to honor his memory. Mary and John’s close friends, Mike Perotto ’78 and Reis Hagerman ’79, as well as his sister, Sheila Veideman, and John’s home community of Brockton, MA, raised more than $17,000 for John Waldron ’79 Scholarships for students from the South Shore of Boston through a wiffleball tournament, raffles, and the gifts of individuals. Waldron Scholars Ryan Gorham ’18, James Stevens ’19, and Will Hardiman ’19 are shown here. Absent from the photo was David Free, ’19. Photo: Emma Deans.
