PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
The Carthage Bridge Our red bridge, spanning the Pike River as one enters the campus, has become a highly recognizable icon for the College. It is red, after all. And it inspired the name of our new and highly successful on-campus communications website, The Bridge. I am sure it means many different things to many different people. From a practical point of view, it means I am almost home. From another viewpoint, it means that one is crossing a symbolic threshold between the “real world” and the life of the College. It is almost as if the west side of the bridge is “out there” and the east side is “in here,” in the fantastic world of Carthage. The feeling of being on the “inside” of the bridge is quite comforting. The College feels safe and protected, somehow elevated,
carthage.edu
and even magical. It seems to signal that what we do in here is truly special; that we have a special purpose, a special mission, and a special status as the seekers of truth, knowledge, and a better world. In fact, much of this is true; what we do in here is special, and we go to some pains to keep it so. A bridge, however, goes in two directions. In and out. East and west. Over and back. This is a symbolic twist on our red bridge and its feeling and function. While we enjoy the privacy and privilege that the way in provides, I will let you in on a little secret: We are trying to broaden the way out — the way back across the bridge to the real world. We are dedicated to providing a strong and easily navigated bridge that symbolically connects our students to their future. We believe in providing an ever-expanding set of experiential learning opportunities that deliberately and specifically send our graduates on a path back across the bridge, to powerful and productive lives on the other side. How? Through internships, the Carthage in Chicago program, faculty-led research and scholarship projects, hundreds of leadership opportunities in student organizations, athletics, fine arts performances, student-
teaching, volunteerism in the community, Senior Thesis, international travel, and alumni mentorship … not to mention vocation, vocation, and, I might add, vocation! Look at all of the ways we make the bridge work in both directions. Liberal arts? Yes! Career pathways and preparation? Yes! Deep learning for a better life? Yes! Skill development for a fulfilling career? Yes! A liberal arts college is an amazing enterprise. The rewards of a broad and liberal education are plentiful, and validated by survey after survey, and data set after data set. Our education is as solid and meaningful as one could ever hope to find. At the same time, we are transforming young people and preparing sturdy professionals. Perhaps for our youngest students the bridge leads inward, but for our upper level students and graduates it also, just as powerfully, leads out. This is good. It is the way it is supposed to work. Our red bridge really is pretty amazing, after all. It goes east, and it goes west. It encourages one in, and it propels one out. This is a Carthage strength and a Carthage advantage. We joyfully welcome students to campus with open arms and a sense of unlimited potential, and yet we also welcome them back across the bridge as the world meets them, full of new purpose and joyful promise.

FACULTY NOTES
Updates on faculty and staff achievements
He’s all ears Based on initial impressions, new provost David Garcia calls Carthage “a wonderfully student-centered institution” with a rising trajectory. Provost Garcia, who also holds the title of chief academic officer, began his duties here in mid-June. Much of his preliminary to-do list involves listening. He said his first broad goal is “to hear the will of the faculty, help them make that vision tangible, and build the institution in a way that will make that tangible vision sustainable.” Already he has sensed a strong commitment among Carthage professors to their students and the College. Provost Garcia comes from Ithaca College in New York, where he spent 11 years in a series of leadership roles. Most recently, he was associate provost for business intelligence. In that role, he emphasized data-driven decision-making — an approach he’s eager to transfer to Carthage. “Data give rich insight into the student experience,” he said. “That information helps us answer the question, ‘Are we putting our
4
resources into the right places to fully support that experience?’” Carthage President Gregory Woodward got to know him during the years they overlapped at Ithaca. “I am tremendously excited about the future of our academic enterprise with Dr. Garcia as our provost,” President Woodward said. “David’s skills in management, budgeting, analytics, faculty development and support, and curricular innovation are impeccable and will be put to good use here.” In fact, Provost Garcia said the chance to reunite with his former colleague was a primary reason he pursued the Carthage position. “We complement each other well,” Provost Garcia said. “You always want to have a strong sense of trust between the president and the provost, and we don’t have to start from scratch. We can build upon an existing trust.”
After initially declaring a major in physics at Yale University, he discovered that he thrived in courses with robust discussions. Switching to English, he ultimately earned a doctorate in that subject from Cornell University. Among his career highlights was an award for teaching excellence at New York University in 1996. Originally from Dallas, Provost Garcia is excited to make a new start with his family in Wisconsin. His wife, Victoria Hastings, and their two teenage children are lifelong New Yorkers. He succeeds Julio Rivera, who had served as provost since 2010 and recently completed a yearlong term as president of the national Council on Undergraduate Research. Prof. Rivera, the 2002 winner of the Distinguished Teaching Award, returns to the faculty as a professor of management, marketing, geography, and earth science.

Fiscal pilot’s farewell William Abt, who has managed Carthage’s historic financial, investment, and operational growth over the past 14 years, announced he would retire as senior vice president for administration and business on June 30, 2015. After a 40-year career in management, he plans to spend more time with family. He and his wife, Julie, also are eager to devote more time to social and community initiatives. Carthage will continue to rely on his expertise. At the request of President Gregory Woodward and the Board of Trustees, Mr. Abt agreed to continue as chief investment officer. In that role, he has overseen investment returns that have boosted the endowment by 200 percent since the low point of the recession in 2009. Resisting the allure of hedge funds and other alternative investments, Carthage’s portfolio has outperformed that of its peers by a wide margin in recent years. Under his leadership, Carthage’s financial strength has grown continuously. The College has raised the operating budget by 130 percent while investing $180 million in campus development. “Bill Abt has been one of the primary figures in creating the wonderful Carthage we enjoy today,” President Woodward said. “His management of our financial resources and business plan has been nothing short of phenomenal, and I doubt another college in America has benefited as much from the transformative work of its CFO.” In addition to guiding the investment strategy, Mr. Abt serves as chief financial officer and treasurer of the College. He oversees human resources, facilities and construction management, food service, conference services, the campus bookstore, Business Office services, Library and Information Services, and athletics. Carrying 25 years of experience in the brewing industry, Mr. Abt came to the College in January 2000. Acknowledging the for-profit management experience was essential, he nevertheless wishes he had made the switch to higher education earlier. “Although I like beer,” Mr. Abt joked, “the finished product here at Carthage is something I can really be proud of — and I get to work with some really great people.” Edward A. Smeds ’57, who had input in the hiring process as chair of Carthage’s board from 1997 to 2011, said Mr. Abt had the ideal background
carthage.edu
the College needed to operate more like a business. His fiscal discipline and calm demeanor earned the respect of his peers and board members, Mr. Smeds added. “In today’s climate, where other colleges are getting into trouble financially, we generally have a surplus,” Mr. Smeds said. “It’s without exaggeration to say Bill is primarily responsible for the financial situation we’re in. It’s the envy of many colleges.” Beyond the campus boundaries, Mr. Abt is chairman of the board of the Group Life Accident and Health Insurance Fund. It provides health care and benefits to more than 12,000 college and university employees across the nation. Mr. Abt’s managerial leadership across many years maximized Carthage resources and created the much stronger college we know today. His stewardship enabled a building program that transformed the campus — the Oaks, the student union, the Tarble Arena, and now the new science center. Those projects exceeded $100 million. While paying those bills, through astute financial management, Bill was able — simultaneously — actually to reduce long-term debt. As impressive as the new buildings are, Bill’s most enduring gift to the College is the program of endowment building that has been in place since 2009 and, by vote of the Trustees, is slated to run at least through 2020. The Carthage endowment now is growing much more rapidly than those at most competing colleges. Future Carthage generations will inherit a position of much greater strength, and the prestige of a Carthage degree will be even higher. Thank you, Bill. — F. Gregory Campbell, President of Carthage from 1987-2012

Nursing program from scratch? Been there. Carthage hired Frank D. Hicks as its founding director of nursing, the first step toward the creation of a Bachelor of Science in Nursing program. He is coordinating the process to meet all educational, regulatory, and accreditation requirements. Carthage hopes to admit the first students for the autumn 2015 term. This won’t be the first program Mr. Hicks has created from scratch. As assistant dean for academic affairs at the Rush University College of Nursing in Chicago, he developed a generalist entry master’s program. As he navigated the interview process, the chance to mold the program at Carthage appealed to Mr. Hicks. “We’re able to create this from the get-go,” he said. “We can hire faculty who share the program’s values. It’s much easier to do that than to change an existing culture.” In September 2013, Carthage formed an advisory committee that included administrators, faculty from each academic division, and staff members to study the feasibility of a nursing program. For more than four
6
months, committee members interviewed experts in the nursing field, conducted market research, and surveyed the campus community. Based on the data, faculty members strongly endorsed the creation of a nursing program in an April vote. The final internal approval came from the Board of Trustees in May. A national search for the founding director led to the hire of Mr. Hicks. “He was unquestionably everyone’s top candidate,” said Patrick Pfaffle, co-chair of the search committee and a professor of biology. “He has exactly the kind of experience we were looking for, and he has the strength and confidence needed to lead this program.” Mr. Hicks, who officially started Sept. 1, reports directly to Provost David Garcia.
“There is only one thing Dr. Hicks is interested in creating: an elite nursing program that will be the envy of everyone else in this field. I am elated to say, ‘Let’s go!’” “We were extremely fortunate to recruit and hire Dr. Frank Hicks,” Provost Garcia said. “He brings a tremendous amount of experience in the field and a real zeal for the notion of creating a brand new nursing program here at Carthage.” Mr. Hicks earned a BSN from Indiana University and a Ph.D. in nursing sciences from the University of Illinois at Chicago. Afterward, he completed a two-year fellowship in nursing and neurobehavior at the University of Michigan. For the past 12 years, he has held faculty and administrative positions at Rush. Besides forming the GEM program, which caters to students with bachelor’s degrees in other subjects, he spent time as a teacher-practitioner in the surgical intensive care unit and a clinical nurse specialist in the cardiac transplant program. He also taught at Loyola University Chicago. “Dr. Hicks’ interest in Carthage says a lot about our college,” President Gregory Woodward said. “There is only one thing Dr. Hicks is interested in creating: an elite nursing program that will be the envy of everyone else in this field. I am elated to say, ‘Let’s go!’” A Chicago resident, Mr. Hicks has two dogs — both Welsh corgis — and enjoys cooking, reading, and attending concerts.

A glimpse of what’s happening in the Carthage community
Dairyland’s space hub For nearly a decade, Carthage physics professor Kevin Crosby has pushed his students to the forefront of undergraduate research in the space sciences. Now Carthage is taking its work with NASA and the aerospace industry even further. In August, Carthage was named the lead institution — and Prof. Crosby the new director — for the Wisconsin Space Grant Consortium, a powerful network with statewide and national reach. “The WSGC is the voice of NASA in the state of Wisconsin,” Prof. Crosby said. “Having the Consortium at Carthage means that we can leverage the unique capabilities of our students and faculty to grow aerospace education across the state.”
and student intern Tessa Rundle ’16 complete the WSGC staff. WSGC at Carthage already has received two grants to support this work: a $188,000 award for First Nations Launch, which invites student teams from tribal colleges to compete in high-altitude rocket challenges; and a $485,000 grant from NASA for balloon payload research at two-year colleges.
Replicating Carthage’s success About the WSGC The Wisconsin consortium is part of a national network of 52 that is funded by a NASA program. Congress established that program in 1988 to contribute to the nation’s scientific enterprise. To encourage innovation in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) education and to spur research, the WSGC hosts student rocket competitions, sponsors near-space balloon platform research, funds interns at such companies as Orbitec and Space Explorers Inc., and provides seed funding for faculty to work aerospace components into their curricula. “One of our key goals is to foster an environment where students, educators, and the private sector work together to inspire a love for the STEM subjects,” said Christine Thompson, the new program manager. Office manager Lisa Crumble

Carthage has been a member of the WSGC since 2005, and its students have participated in nearly every program the Consortium offers. Having witnessed the transformative effects these have had on his students, Prof. Crosby is excited to expand opportunities statewide. Participants learn that professionals in STEM fields aren’t all nerds with genius-level IQs. That stereotype could negate efforts to recruit new talent into these important industries. “When students get to work closely with NASA engineers and scientists, they learn that these are surfing, skydiving fighter pilots with backgrounds in engineering, chemistry, and physics,” Prof. Crosby said. “They’re people who get to work on the latest supersonic aircraft and build rockets that go into space to take measurements of the universe. “That’s anything but dry and nerdy.”
A new direction Already in the short time since the WSGC moved to Carthage, significant changes have come. The team launched a new, redesigned website and now hosts its aerospace research journal online. Next up? New programming that will advance WSGC’s mission, including a new summer research program focused on remotely operated vehicles, or ROVs. “The ROV revolution is upon us, and there is going to be more and more demand for people who can program and operate these vehicles for remote sensing of landforms, emergency response, and agriculture,” Prof. Crosby said. Among the various lead institutions across the country, Carthage is the only private liberal arts college. “I think the fact that Carthage was selected speaks volumes about the College and Dr. Crosby, and his commitment to Space Grant over the years,” Ms. Thompson said. “They saw the excitement he has for existing programs and his vision for taking WSGC programming to new heights.”

A wider welcome mat Newly installed ‘Pastor Kara’ fosters interfaith dialogue while preserving Lutheran roots Since her start as campus pastor in January, the Rev. Kara Baylor continues to settle into her new role at Carthage by finding areas of opportunity to strengthen the role faith provides on the campus. A major part of Rev. Baylor’s work this year will be dedicated to building a stronger interfaith culture on the campus. “Rooted in our Lutheran tradition, we are open to learn about and be in service with people of many faith traditions,” Rev. Baylor explained. Rev. Baylor officially was installed during a Sept. 28 worship service in the A. F. Siebert Chapel. Prior to her role at Carthage, she served as a pastor for nearly 14 years at Mount Pleasant Lutheran Church in Racine, Wisconsin. She holds
carthage.edu
a Master of Divinity from the Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago and a bachelor’s degree in social work from Luther College in Decorah, Iowa. Amazed by the service and compassion that students of the Carthage community possess, Rev. Baylor said she wants to build on that through future community events. One of the first changes was to change the name of the chapel office to the Center for Faith and Spirituality. That way, she said all students know that the center is available to them — not just those from certain religions. For the fall, Rev. Baylor is focusing on a new program called Journey Conversations. As “a place to articulate student’s faiths in a small, nonjudgmental group environment,” Journey
Conversations is designed to help students push out of their comfort zones and grow spiritually and intellectually. Additionally, she is conducting interfaith lunches throughout the year, which involve a free lunch for students and discussions on varying religious topics. Lunches so far have been led by professors Fatih Harpci and Dimitri Shapovalov, as well as student groups such as Intervarsity, the Lutheran Student Movement, and the Islamic Awareness Association. Carthage hasn’t wavered in its embrace of Lutheran values, Rev. Baylor added. The center continues its weekly chapel service, now on Tuesdays, and she has a full lineup of speakers including local clergy. Bible study and evening prayer services are held Wednesdays, and a new Sunday service draws 20 to 30 students weekly. Within the interfaith initiative, it is Rev. Baylor’s goal to reveal the shared values between faiths and create connections, as well as support for everyone on their own individual spiritual journey, regardless of faith.

The Carthage Brand You may have noticed that Carthage has overhauled the look, tone, and message of its communications over the past year. The Office of Communications led the Carthage community through a comprehensive branding initiative that shaped these changes.
The initiative consisted of four phases:
phase 1
Immerse and Discover
Observe Listen Question
“Our new brand is much more than a logo, a font, or a set of colors,” said Molly Polk, vice president for communications. “It’s how we see ourselves and how we want other people to see us. Our story is uniquely Carthage.” Ultimately, the new guidelines are designed to better tell that story. The branding process helped the College define its strongest attributes and convert them into a clear and distinctive message that covers academics, campus life, athletics, community, and faith.

“When we all tell that story the same way, it becomes powerful,” Polk said. “We present a unified identity that will build awareness of all that a Carthage education and experience offers. It connects us to all of our audiences: prospective and current students, parents, alumni, donors, faculty and staff, and even the community.”

Red vs. Blue U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan and challenger Rob Zerban argued their positions on foreign and domestic issues during a 1st Congressional District debate Oct. 13 at Carthage.
Frozen freshmen From left: U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan, Carthage President Gregory Woodward, Professor Jeffrey Roberg (debate moderator), and Rob Zerban.
Jeffrey Roberg, chair of the Political Science Department and professor of political science, served as moderator. Twice before, in 1998 and 2010, he moderated debates on campus for the same seat in Congress. An audience of about 200 filled the Campbell Student Union auditorium, including journalists from 15 media outlets. Questions covered such topics as student loan debt, the threat of ISIS, Social Security, and climate change. Afterward, attendees met with the candidates in the Campus Living Room on the union’s main floor. Southeastern Wisconsin voters re-elected Rep. Ryan on Nov. 4.

Having watched the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge go viral one nominee at a time, members of the Carthage College freshman class went bigger. About 500 members of the Class of 2018 participated in the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge on Labor Day. As part of New Student Orientation, they doused themselves en masse on Art Keller Field. President Gregory Woodward and several other top administrators nominated the class after accepting the challenge the previous week. Carthage donated $1 for each incoming freshman to the Les Turner ALS Association, in addition to a contribution from the Office of the President.
The donations supported Team Victory, which the Semler family formed in honor of Vickie Semler ’67 for the annual ALS Walk for Life in Chicago. The Carthage gifts also honored longtime administrative assistant Sandy Fredericks. Among the freshmen found wiping semicold droplets from their eyes was Jordan Jones of Brillion, Wisconsin. “That felt pretty awesome,” he said. “It’s a great thing where people can get together and contribute to such a great cause.”

Drawn into the ‘Vortex’ Carthage’s latest addition, the aluminum sculpture “Vortex” by artist Michael Young, had quite a serendipitous journey to end up placed outside the north entrance of the Campbell Student Union. “Last summer, we were looking for a piece of art that perfectly embodied Carthage and represented our new brand,” President Gregory Woodward said at a dedication of the sculpture on June 24. “When I saw it, I loved it right away. It represented Carthage’s past and future, and everyone we showed photos to agreed.” At Carthage’s annual Christmas Festival dinner, President Woodward had dinner with Dr. Cliff Peterson and his wife, Gladys. Out of the blue, Dr. Peterson mentioned that he loved the “Vortex” sculpture and was reminded of Carthage every time he saw it. When a shocked President Woodward agreed, Dr. Peterson said just five words: “Well, let’s go get it.”
“I thought it would take a while for the sculpture to get here,” President Woodward said. “Then one day I saw something reflecting light in the corner of my eye, and I saw the sculpture on campus. I don’t know how Dr. Peterson did it, but I’m elated.” Getting “Vortex” from the Kenosha lakefront to its new home was just the latest gift that the Petersons have given the College during a lifetime of support. They have supported the College since 1964, when they were inspired to move to Kenosha because they wanted to live in a city that was home to a liberal arts institution. “This sculpture fits the type of student that Carthage has,” said Dr. Peterson. “It will propel
students to greater heights and help them realize their potential. It represents the fire, the energy, and the zeal of every student who attends the College.”
“It represents the fire, the energy, and the zeal of every student who attends the College.” There was just one problem. The sculpture already had a home. It was to be displayed for two years at Harbor Park in downtown Kenosha. Even if the College could get the sculpture, it would have to wait before it could arrive on campus. That was not going to be a deterrent.

Homecoming for the 2004 CCIW champion football team
Glory days Players and coaches from the last Carthage football team to win the College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin title were honored during Homecoming weekend. A total of 71 members of the 2004 Red Men squad came back for the 10-year reunion on Oct. 11. At halftime of the game between Carthage and CCIW rival Elmhurst College, each of them was recognized. That year, the Red Men went 11-2 and advanced to the quarterfinals of the NCAA Division III championship. Running back Dante Washington and defensive back Brandon Fox earned multiple All-America honors, and Tim Rucks was chosen the region’s top coach. Thanks to the reunion, we learned where the road has led many of them.
Where are they now? Ferni Garza, quarterback
The guy who started 10 games at quarterback that season, Ferni Garza ’06, now plays professional football in Europe — and not the kind we in the United States call soccer, either. This is American football. He has played for teams in Italy, Poland, and the Czech Republic, and is sifting through offers for the upcoming season. Mr. Garza

quarterbacked the Prague Black Hawks to two straight Czech League championships and once was named Most Valuable Player of the final. For six months of the year, he lives in Europe. The other half of the year, he returns home to California to coach his high school alma mater. “I get to live in different countries, learning about different cultures and helping football grow into a popular sport,” he wrote. He has picked up the Italian language and a few morsels of Czech. “On the field, there are some challenges, because not everyone is fluent in English and sometimes there can be a gap in communication that causes misinterpretations,” he wrote. “However, the players have such an enormous passion for the game and play with everything they have, which I respect in a major way.”
Erik Keil, offensive lineman When a coaching opportunity in Germany fell through earlier this year, Erik Keil ’07 kept “looking for an adventure abroad.” He found it in Thailand. For the past few months, he has taught English conversation and grammar to grades 10 through 12 at a government school in Nakhon

The classes are co-taught with Thai instructors, who enforce discipline and translate lessons. “Some days, it is hard and it feels like the students don’t learn anything.

With Anthony Bagnara ’07 still on board as a bandmate, the Brandon Fox Project began performing in the Chicago area in August and released its first album in October. Mr. Fox describes it as a combination of pop, R&B, and dance music. Music has been part of his life as far back as he can remember, when his mom would sing songs and prayers for him. The vocalist gets a jolt from performing for a live audience. “Of course I do it to get things out,” he said, “… but a lot of that excitement is being on stage and seeing people connect to it.”

The thrower, the lawyer, the runner, and the drummer Jeff Rebholz Interim Head Coach, Men’s Track and Field Jeff Rebholz already has completed four years as an assistant coach at Carthage, specializing in throwing events. Coach Rebholz graduated from Monmouth College in Illinois in 2007 with a bachelor’s degree in physical education and went on to get his master’s in kinesiology from Western Illinois University in 2009. At Monmouth, he was a two-time AllAmerican in shot put, a seven-time national qualifier in various throwing events, and a three-time Midwest Conference Most Outstanding Field Performer of the Year. He is certified as a strength and conditioning specialist, a sport performance coach through USA Weightlifting, and a throwing events specialist.

C.J. Cuneo Head Coach, Women’s Lacrosse C.J. Cuneo previously worked as an assistant coach at Virginia Commonwealth University in 2014 and Adrian College in 2012. She attended Binghamton University in New York, where she played lacrosse for the NCAA Division I Bearcats and graduated in 2008 with a Bachelor of Arts in economics. She then went on to earn her law degree from the University of Richmond in 2011 and is licensed to practice law in Maryland and Virginia. College records indicate the only other attorney/coach at Carthage was J. Arthur Baird, a coach and athletic director on the Illinois campus from 1907 to 1916.
A lot of changes are going around on campus this year, including the addition of four new head coaches in the Athletic Department. Men’s cross country, swimming, and track and field, as well as women’s lacrosse, all will be under new leadership this academic year. Let’s get to know the new athletic staff:
Josh Henry
Seth Weidmann
Interim Head Coach, Men’s Cross Country Josh Henry served as men’s and women’s cross country/track and field assistant coach from 2009 to 2013 at the State University of New York-Cortland, where he worked mainly with distance runners. He is a USA Track and Field Level I certified coach. Coach Henry attended SUNY-Cortland, where he received his bachelor’s in 2009 and his master’s in 2010 — both in sport management. He earned AllAmerica honors in 2008 and helped lead Cortland to its first NCAA Division III cross country title. He was a five-time national qualifier at the 5,000- and 10,000-meter distances and made the national allacademic team three times.
Head Coach, Men’s Swimming From 2005 to 2014, Seth Weidmann led the senior program at the second-largest USA Swimming club in Illinois. He coached the boys to a state title in 2009, and two of his swimmers later qualified for the Olympic Trials. He is a graduate of Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter, Minnesota, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in communication studies in 2005. Coach Weidmann was a three-time All-American. He is an active member of USA Swimming and Illinois Swimming, as well as a member of the Illinois organization’s Diversity and Inclusion Committee. In past years, he had a small side career as a drummer.

Red Men golfer solves winning equation A future math teacher and coach, Jarrett Simonson ’16 keeps learning how to subtract from his golf scores. The mathematics major from Wautoma, Wisconsin, led the men’s golf team to a strong fall season. The Red Men placed first or second in five of their six events. Individually, Jarrett won the Wisconsin Lutheran Fall Invitational, took second in Carthage’s Tim Kopka Memorial Invitational, tied for third at the Aurora Invitational, and added two more top-10 finishes. He averaged 74.2 strokes over the six events in fall, which not only led the team but also improved from 76.9 last season. Jarrett began playing golf around age 4, learning from his father and taking a few lessons along the way. He credits his recent improvement to becoming mentally smarter on the golf course, as well as to a stronger putting game. He prepared for this season by practicing almost
Women’s golf The Carthage women’s golf team won its second straight College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin championship Oct. 2-4 in Bloomington, Illinois. Carthage’s McKenzie Parks ’16, of Oregon, Wisconsin, took medalist honors with rounds of 83-77-85 for a 245 total. McKenzie became only the second Lady Reds golfer to medal in the event. Carthage posted a threeround score of 1009, five strokes ahead of Illinois Wesleyan University.
every day over the summer and by continuing to take lessons. The junior’s rise came at the right time, after all-conference players Brad Hyland and Riley Bauman graduated in May. Jarrett’s heightened attention to detail caught the eye of his coach. “He is a relentless competitor who has grit,” Coach Dave Roehl said. “Jarrett exemplifies the true meaning of an athlete: He never gives up, no matter what the circumstances, hence his improvement to become our No. 1 player right now.” The fall schedule wrapped up in October, and the team will use the off-season to lift weights and to practice in the College’s indoor golf center. Looking forward to the spring season, which begins in March, Jarrett has high hopes for the Red Men to qualify as a team for the NCAA Division III championship — something Carthage last did in 2007.
Longtime sports information director to retire Steve Marovich, sports information director and assistant director of athletics, announced he would retire at the end of the 2014-15 academic year. After completing his 21st year as SID, he plans to work in a part-time role through the 2015-16 year to assist during the transition. Mr. Marovich and the Carthage communications team have received 124 publication awards from the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) since 1997, and he is a former member of the CoSIDA Publications Committee.

With a Windy City presence and alumni on the lookout, Carthage offers an internship edge

CARTHAGE IN CHICAGO
Their kind of town Maturing by the minute, Carthage in Chicago’s first class goes to work
P
iercing the white noise of taxi horns and CTA bus brakes, the shrill alarm from a clock or smartphone app rouses each of the dozen Carthage floormates. Three floors down, they toast their morning bagels. Pushing open the lobby door, they greet a city of 2.7 million people and limitless possibilities. Just a typical weekday for the first participants in the Carthage in Chicago program. Knowing the value of immersion and experiential learning, the College designed a program that offers both. Students live, work, and study in the Windy City for a full semester. Based on early feedback, these pioneers are hooked. “By all indications, these students are having a truly transformative semester,” said Thomas Kline, associate vice president for strategic initiatives at Carthage. “Seeing this first class grow and mature confirms what the research told us: that this program has great potential.”
Workforce introduction Internships are the central component. Although all 12 students are taking one or both of the courses offered there this fall, they spend the bulk of their time working. For Justin Henderson ’16 and Juan Robles ’16, that means a short walk to the “El” train stop. From there, the Pink Line whisks them to their internships at CPUrx,

which provides IT support, phone systems, and other technology services. Justin, an accounting and finance major from Lapeer, Michigan, took the season off from the men’s soccer team to pursue this. Within a month, he earned enough trust at CPUrx to take responsibility for his entire department when needed. He approves time sheets, sends out and pays invoices, and plans to set up a monthly financial schedule to help predict expenses. Where Sean Rogers ’15 interns, the ties are loosened — or, actually, left at home. He works with video production teams at The Onion, the satirical news publisher whose websites draw more than 11 million unique visitors monthly.

Nick Cottrell ’16, a public relations major, interns at Carol Fox & Associates, a full-service marketing agency.
While he’s excited to get a sneak peek at wacky headlines like “Pueblo Indians Can’t Keep Pace With Area Mom’s Appetite For Earthenware,” Sean is no mere observer. On a project for The Onion’s main website or its new spinoff, ClickHole, he might be asked to hold the boom microphone, edit footage, or add graphics. His input helped the team polish a video of a man eating soup, set to the stirring theme music and opening credits from “Game of Thrones.” For the graphic design major from the nearby suburb of Elk Grove Village, Illinois, the future suddenly is coming into focus. “I get to see one way my major could work in the ‘real world,’” Sean said. “It doesn’t have to be, ‘I just make logos 24/7.’” Home to 31 Fortune 500 companies, the Chicago metropolitan area is flush with career prospects in just about any field. The initial Carthage in Chicago class encompasses majors from computer science to studio art. “I’m already seeing great results from the students down there,” said Carolynn Friesch, director of internships for the College. “During my site visits, it’s clear that they’re excited about the work they’re doing and the chance to do it in a professional setting.”
Staying in the Loop At the end of the workday, the students trickle back to HI-Chicago. Carthage takes up half of the fifth floor at the award-winning hostel. On weekends, they might sample a new restaurant or catch an indie movie at the Music Box Theatre. “It’s nice to have these only-onein-the-world locations we can go to whenever we want,” Sean said.

Michelle Balcerzak ’16 is the resident assistant. Just like RAs on campus, she makes the rounds to stay on the pulse of her crew. “Some of my residents are older than me, but they’re still my kids,” Michelle said. “Everyone is friends. We’ve become a very cohesive unit.” The marketing major from Tinley Park, Illinois, has an internship at Pritzker Military Museum. Ditching her trademark sweatpants for business attire, Michelle sees a more mature professional in the mirror this fall. “We’re growing into those people we’re going to become in the next five to 10 years,” she said. Students were alerted up front to expect some bumpy patches during the program’s first run. Settling in 68 miles south of the Kenosha campus, they have adapted. “It very much feels like we’re living in an apartment and working for a living,” said Sean Conley ’15, an international political economy major from Indianapolis. Roommates quickly settled into their roles. Sharing a two-bedroom suite, Sean Conley cooks, Sean Rogers stocks the gaming consoles, Justin Henderson motivates the guys to work out, and Juan Robles — from Bogota, Colombia — breaks the ice with Spanish-speaking hostel guests.
A portable classroom Teaching space is available in the hostel’s common area, but the Carthage classes only occasionally meet there. The city makes a better classroom. Professors Maria Carrig and Christopher Lynch teach “Politics and Play,” which explores Chicago politics and theatre — and the ways they intersect. By the end of the semester, students will have attended six plays with political themes. After each, they hold a discussion with the cast and crew. Every student also researches the cultural and political changes over time in a different neighborhood. Both faculty members chip in tidbits they’ve gleaned as longtime residents. A lifelong Chicagoan, Prof. Carrig even shared anecdotes from her parents’ time at the chaotic 1968 Democratic Convention. “This class depends on residence in Chicago for its success,” she said. “It enables me to share my love of Chicago and its theaters with Carthage students, and Chris gives us all a better understanding of the city’s political history.” Although she’s a Wisconsinite, Professor Anne Cassidy leapt at the chance to hold classes at venues like the Art Institute of Chicago and the Field Museum. She teaches “Arts of the Indigenous Americas in Chicago.”

During one session at the Art Institute, each art piece sparked a discussion. As students examined anatomically distorted Mexican figurines or the Mayan “Vase of the Seven Gods,” Prof. Cassidy Abigail Smallwood ’15, a public relations and communication major, interns at Brill Street, a recruiting and talent services firm. challenged them to explain what the artwork signified about people’s views. To apply for Carthage in Chicago, students submit resumes and references. Faculty and administrators interview the eligible applicants and select a pool of up to 20. Each student has the option to be paired with an alumni mentor in the vicinity. Barely a year after planning began in earnest, in September 2013, the program took flight. As chair of the advisory committee, Thomas Kline sees room to blend the Chicago initiative more fully into the College’s curriculum as it develops. “It took the combined efforts of many individuals and offices across campus, as well as our alumni, to make Carthage in Chicago succeed,” he said. “I believe we have succeeded in building a program that will become a hallmark Carthage experience in the years to come.”

Foot in the door? Alumni wedge it open

hen Career Services began researching potential employer partners, the overwhelming response from Carthage alumni thrilled Carolynn Friesch. “I truly appreciate the support that we’ve had from alumni near and far, talking about internships that become available within their companies,” said Ms. Friesch, Carthage’s director of internships. “A quick email or phone call can make a huge difference, by alerting us to an opportunity that students wouldn’t necessarily have known about.” While Ms. Friesch expresses confidence in students’ ability to compete on their own, she said the support system is valuable in today’s hyper-competitive job market. For example, she credits much of the Carthage in Chicago program’s initial success to alumni. One of those is Erika Share ’12, a video editor and producer for The Onion, a digital media and news satire publisher. After receiving a handful of recommendations from Carthage’s Communication and Digital Media Department, Ms. Share interviewed and hired Sean Rogers ’15 as a video production intern. Sean said her advice helped him avoid a potentially major blunder: wearing a suit to the interview. Ms. Share was an intern at four different companies and organizations, so she understands the intimidating and competitive process. “I know the stress of feeling underqualified for the job you want. I know what it’s like to work for free,” she said. “As a previous intern and now in command of a few very talented interns, I want to see kids grow as individuals and gain knowledge that they can’t get at school.” Interns of The Onion learn about design, film production, and working in comedy, all while

working in a professional environment that Ms. Share describes as incredibly unique. But learning opportunities aren’t just handed to them. “Hard work does not go unnoticed,” she said. “Being motivated to stay late to work on projects or being plugged into aspects of the job that aren’t necessary, but encouraged, is what internships are all about.” Of course, the roots of alumni support run much deeper than this promising new program. Following the lead of John Baker Welch ’76, a vice president at William Blair & Company and an advisor to the College’s Division of Business, Josh Lamers ’10 actively mentors students who are seeking opportunities.

lessons provide an edge for a highly competitive internship at the Chicago firm, which specializes in private wealth management, investment banking, and equity research. “I was fortunate as an undergraduate student at Carthage to have the resources to excel before me,” he said. “To those who express a similar passion for personal and professional advancement, I believe they deserve a chance to get their foot in the door, and, if I can open that door, by all means I will.” The support network is particularly strong for Sean Conley ’15, a fall semester intern whose three closest collaborators at Satori Energy are Carthage graduates. Led by President David Wiers ’98, the company does business in deregulated energy markets. Swapping memories of mutual classes and professors, Sean and his new co-workers quickly broke the ice. Having made the hop from education to workforce, the alumni are coaching him where to bulk up his skills — such as Microsoft Excel. “They’ve been great at stepping in and letting me know the things I needed to learn,” he said. Closer to campus, Logan McCoy ’07 is vice president of sales at CCB Inc., a leading provider of technology solutions and IT services based in Racine, Wisconsin. Interns there aren’t confined to a protective bubble. “We believe that the only way to truly learn is by doing,” said Mr. McCoy, “so we afford every intern the opportunity to work with our current customers.” Todd Wolf ’07, support services coordinator at the Racine Zoo, stresses the importance of multitasking and a diverse skill set. That’s why interns for the zoo gain knowledge in a wide range of areas, including special event management, customer service, graphic design, retail marketing, promotion development, and product selection. And, with each graduating class, the alumni network expands.

Ongoing internship programs While many enterprising Carthage students secure their own internships, often with guidance from faculty mentors and Career Services staff, two structured programs are in place: smeds executive internship program
great lakes career ready internship initiative
What it is: This summer internship program has operated for more than 20 years. Smeds interns typically are paid by their employers and earn a stipend from the program’s benefactor, Edward Smeds ’57.
What it is: For the second straight year, Great Lakes Higher Education Guaranty Corporation awarded Carthage a Career Ready Internship Initiative grant. The grant allows the College to pay students $12 per hour to work at area nonprofits and businesses.
Who does it: One of 20 Smeds interns to give a presentation in September, Josh Bergman ’15 spent the summer at Sealed Air in Racine, Wisconsin. He worked with the education and government sector of the marketing department. Josh updated and revived GREENGUARD, a certification program for cleaning products, ensuring that they don’t give off harmful toxins. He stayed on as a sector marketing associate. In their words: “The culture and people within the company are amazing,” he said during his internship. “Though the work has been challenging and dense, I can always look to someone for advice or a relaxed conversation. By surrounding myself with excellent people, I find that I am more motivated to produce high-quality work.”
Who does it: Among the 62 Carthage students who participated in the first grant year, two spent the summer working for the Kenosha Symphony Orchestra: Kaila Banaszak ’15 and Max Dinan ’15. They and two other music students helped the orchestra introduce a new logo and website, a strong presence on social media, and a popular Instrument Petting Zoo at the downtown farmers market. Both Kaila and Max continued to work for KSO afterward. In their words: “Finding a career in the arts field is difficult,” said KSO Executive Director Sarah Gorke ’04, an adjunct faculty member in the Music Department. “By creating these positions, the Kenosha Symphony benefits greatly from the vitality and excited spirit of these students, and, in return, the students are getting real-world experience in the arts administration field.”

A family structure Managing construction of the College’s $43 million science center is more than a job to Paul Miller ’87

t’s doubtful that any of his fellow freshmen knew the campus as well as Paul Miller ’87 did when he enrolled at Carthage. Whether eating cheese popcorn while cheering on the sports teams, sledding down the hill toward what’s now Augie Schmidt Field, watching fireworks from the Trinity House lawn, or swimming at the former Seidemann Natatorium, he made the campus his childhood playground. His father was the late Professor R. William “Bill” Miller, and the family lived a short bike ride from the College on 17th Street. Paul Miller’s background makes it especially fitting that he is leading the construction of a new Carthage science center. He’s a senior project manager with Riley Construction, the Kenosha firm that is managing the $43 million project. The project features a major renovation of the 70,000-square-foot David A. Straz, Jr. Center for the Natural and Social Sciences and a new 35,000-square-foot wing. It will increase classroom and laboratory space by 40 percent, providing state-of-the-art facilities for study in the natural sciences and new ways for collaborative research between students and faculty. While Paul is invested in every construction project he manages, he acknowledges this one is infused with a stronger dose of pride. With an accounting degree, he was one of three siblings to graduate from Carthage. Now the family’s strong ties to the school have entered a third generation. His son Ryan ’16 and daughter Rachel ’18 are current students. “For me, it’s not only making sure the classrooms are open for the College,” Paul said. “You can’t get more personally involved than that.” Majoring in biology, Ryan likely will spend time in the transformed science center during his senior year. He teases his dad that the construction should have come a few years earlier. “It would have been great to come here to a shiny, new science building,” Ryan joked. Although she isn’t considering science majors, Rachel figures she’ll at least pass through the building on the way to class or Starbucks. She chuckles that her father’s role makes her feel like a minor celebrity on campus. Both siblings said it was a given that Carthage would top their college wish lists. Rachel has happy childhood memories of the place, including an annual fall tradition when her grandmother would arrange a photo by Bill’s memorial tree. The sweetgum tree stands in a small grove in front of Hedberg Library. “I’ve been here so much from being little that, if I didn’t come here, it’d just feel wrong,” Rachel said. Her brother has more substantial memories of their grandfather, the revered faculty member who died in 2000. Ryan requested “the college books” from Bill as a young boy, long before he needed to shop at the Carthage bookstore. “He used to read me encyclopedias, because I didn’t like the

regular stories,” Ryan said. After joining the faculty in 1965, Bill Miller founded the Geography Department and taught for more than 30 years. He was honored with the Distinguished Teacher of the Year award for 198990 and the Carthage Flame in 1999. The appreciation was mutual. For evidence of his devotion, no one had to look farther than the fenders of his car. Bill ordered “CCW 150” license plates to commemorate the College’s sesquicentennial. “It was everything to him,” Paul said. “He lived, breathed, and died Carthage.” As the R. William Miller Distinguished Professor in the Natural and Social Sciences, Kurt Piepenburg ’77 holds the faculty seat that honors his mentor. An introductory course with Bill in the mid-1970s convinced him to switch his major from biology to geography. “He managed to integrate everything,” Prof. Piepenburg said. “He was one of those Renaissance people. You began to see connections you didn’t always see.” Bill Miller’s research had highly practical applications. Focused on transportation logistics, he served as a consultant to McDonald’s, Commonwealth Edison, and several local companies. “I see a lot of Bill’s traits in Paul,” Prof. Piepenburg said, including the ability to synthesize information and anticipate challenges. “And I think they’re what you want in a project manager.” Paul said the timetable remains on target for the building to open before the fall 2015 semester. The building additions were weathertight by the end of October, and mechanical systems are being brought online as the interior takes shape. Carthage officials say the building will rank among the most advanced undergraduate science education centers in the country. It will offer 12 new interdisciplinary laboratories, collaborative learning areas, outdoor classrooms overlooking Lake Michigan, and many other student-focused amenities. “It’s a wonderful project,” Paul said. “It’ll be a cornerstone.”

A stout enterprise A state apart, Carthage alums Matt Geary and Nathaniel Chapman ditched the daily grind to open breweries that invite talk — not TV watching. Matt Geary ’99 opened Public Craft Brewery in Kenosha.

hen the corporate grindstone wore through the creative appeal of Matt Geary’s graphic design career, the 1999 Carthage graduate decided to turn a longtime hobby into a fulltime job. “I discovered ‘good’ beer right after graduation, but I also discovered it was expensive,” he said. Having been introduced to home brewing by a friend, he wondered if he might brew his own beer for less money. In following years, Mr. Geary’s experiment grew into a passion. “I really enjoyed the creativity of it,” he said. “For me, it became a matter of meeting in the middle between following recipes strictly and just completely winging it.” Within two years of switching his thought patterns from “I’d like to open a brewery” to “I’m going to open a brewery,” the pieces fell into place and he signed the lease for what is now called Public Craft Brewery in Kenosha. The doors officially opened Sept. 21, 2012. Mr. Geary proudly points out that the taproom at Public Craft houses no electronics. Instead, an old-fashioned shuffleboard table fills one corner, low tables and couches dominate the floor space, and bookshelves offer potential entertainment. “There’s the concept of us all being connected in so many ways, but we continue to reduce our direct personal interactions,” he said. “I believe that face-to-face collaboration, debate, and exchange of ideas — often in the presence of beer, by the way — have been at the core of getting humans to where we are today. Ultimately, I hope that we’re providing a venue for people to loosen

up a bit, meet new people, and socialize.” Similar philosophies and circumstances inspired Nathaniel Chapman ’06 to open his Lino Lakes, Minnesota, brewery in August 2013. “We made a conscious decision to make it social,” Mr. Chapman said of the unplugged taproom at HammerHeart Brewing Company. “The idea of a sports bar was not our scene. We want people to come in, communicate with other people, relax, and enjoy. That’s the environment I want.” The taproom’s architecture, like many of the brewery’s beer names and concepts, takes inspiration from Norse culture. Resembling a Viking drinking hall, the venue boasts natural woodwork and whiskey barrel tables. It seats no more than 65. Mr. Chapman decided to partner with his brother-in-law and open the brewery largely because the corporate world wasn’t fully engaging. “I wanted to do something more hands-on, more involved in the entire scope of the business, rather than just one small aspect,” he said. A brewery seemed a natural choice, since he had some experience with home brewing, but that wasn’t enough. “Commercial experience was important to us, since brewing is so technical and has so many variables,” Mr. Chapman said. “If one variable is off, things come out unexpectedly.” So, shortly before construction began on the taproom northeast of Minneapolis, his brother-inlaw completed a brewing internship in Norway. “That gave us the confidence we needed,” Mr. Chapman said, and it seems the experiment is working. “Never in a million years did we think people would be this interested in beer, or specifically in our beer,” he said. But a packed taproom on most weekends proves the wisdom of their decision-making.

Old-Timers
The Old Timers group held its 20-year anniversary at the Coachman's Golf Resort in Stoughton, Wisconsin, in May 2014. Bob Reimers ’61 wrote that all of them attended the “old but great” campus in Carthage, Illinois. He reports that many memories were discussed and all decided “if it hadn't been for the education we received at Carthage, we would not have been as successful in the coaching/ business field.” He added that the classes of 1960, '61, and '62 have remained close friends all of these years. For two decades, the Old Timers have traveled from five different states every year to be together.

Reunited, and it felt so good The Homecoming theme “Together!” perfectly described this year’s festivities on the weekend of Oct. 10-12. On Friday evening, Carthage classes 1965 through 1968 gathered for a Pioneer Reunion. These classes were the first to graduate from the Kenosha campus. Some of my favorite alumni stories that evening came from a group of women who had named themselves the Carthagettes. Tessie (Heubach) Heath ’66, Joyce (Tanck) Herolt ’68, Elaine (Rieck) Lees ’68, Nancy (Ridenour) Ryan ’68, Susan Salstrom ’67, Kristine (Rasmussen) Thommessen ’68, and Jean Ann Von Rohr ’68 gathered with us and shared many memories. Elaine and her husband flew in from England. Years ago, Jean Ann made each of the women a “Carthagette” blanket, and Kristine brought hers to show us. It was delightful to meet this group of friends. On Saturday morning, more than 100 alumni gathered for a breakfast honoring our Alumni Association Scholarship recipients. One of the recipients, Kaylene Felton ’16, became the 17th member of her family to attend Carthage. Her sister, Rachael, is a freshman this year and is No. 18! It is incredible to see the legacy continue. On Saturday afternoon, our Alumni Council, children (“Future Alumni”), and student organizations had a blast walking in the Homecoming Parade, followed by the football game. That evening, the fun continued at our All Decade Reunion, where all class years celebrated together. Later, our Class of 1964 and Gold Plus alumni (pre-1963) enjoyed a reunion dinner
together. I loved hearing about how spouses met each other and pranks that the classes pulled! My absolute favorite story from the entire weekend was one that Al Van Maren ’65 told about a meeting his friend Henry Pevsner ’64 had with Carthage President Alan Anderson ’50 while looking into college. I followed up with Henry, and he shared more of his story: “I sat in his office, and, after we talked, he took my transcripts and said, ‘Let’s just take a look here.’ As he looked at the grades he said ‘Uh-huh, uh-huh,’ then suddenly, ‘Look, here you got a B in this class. See … you certainly can do it!” After President Anderson encouraged him, he told Henry, “‘Let’s start you with the light load of 12-13 hours, and, if you do OK, you can make it up later.’” Henry did more than OK. He is now Dr. Henry Pevsner, a very successful radiologist in Florida. And, when President Anderson passed away in 2008, Dr. Pevsner had trees planted in Jerusalem in his name. Looking back, he says, “We had classmates who would not have succeeded at any other school, (if it weren’t for) the attention from teachers and coaches.” Our Carthage family is incredible, and I love when we’re all together! Joyfully yours,

IN THEIR OWN WORDS
The leader within everyone It was 2006. I was 18 years old and heading to my first college class with an extra hop in my step. This hop subsided once I seated myself in Accounting 101 and my mathematical deficiency kicked in. An hour later, I left class questioning my ability to survive college. Weeks later, I went to the cafeteria for lunch and Dr. Dezoma, a Heritage professor of mine, signaled me to join his coterie of professors. Little did I know this lunch and conversation would ultimately catapult me from an academically challenged 18-year-old to the youngest leadership studies Ph.D. in the country at 25. Sensing my insecurity, Dr. Dezoma turned to me and said, “Derek, little do you know you are one of us — a future Ph.D.” He began to unpack his surprising declaration by suggesting that, while I wasn’t the type of student with all the right answers in class, the best of papers, or even the best of grades, my strength resided in my curiosity
impacting and adding value to the trajectory of each student’s life. As director of the Character Quest leadership certification program at Carthage, my purpose is to seek opportunities to figure out where each student leader is in his or her leadership growth story. College is a time when one is encumbered with personal, emotional, spiritual, and even financial growing pains. These growing pains lead young adults to wrestle with big questions about life: Who am I? What’s my purpose? How can I make a difference? Where do I belong? These are extremely tough questions to answer as an 18-year-old. Ultimately, my goal with the CQ students is to give them the proper tools to explore and answer those questions. With tools
“ who
am i? what’s my purpose? how can i make a difference? where do i belong?”
and ability to ask thought-provoking questions. I guess I never looked at myself as smart until that conversation. It’s interesting how a simple revelation from someone you look up to has the power to influence the trajectory of your life. Conversations like these, influencers like Dr. Dezoma, and personal revelations like this make Carthage such a special place — a place where woven into the culture of the College is a team of professors and staff members who focus on
36
we refer to as strength, shape, style, and story, the program helps them to understand: • Their strengths and where they can contribute added value within their teams. Today’s society focuses more on fixing weaknesses than capitalizing on strengths. At CQ, we focus on getting better in areas where a person is naturally effective as a leader. • Their personality shapes in team settings. In group settings, especially when the stress
level is turned up, people tend to operate very predictably. Understanding one’s personality shape is important so we can be self-aware of our emotional intelligence when working with others. • Their leadership styles. I want our students to be flexible leaders, able to adapt to any situation and lead effectively. • Their growth stories. It is so important that our students recognize that they are characters living out unique stories. What is your character’s why, or purpose? How does your “why” help you overcome the challenges in your story? When leaders know their “why,” they can bear any “how.” ________
In his free time, Derek Matthews ’10, Ph.D., serves as director of Character Quest, a leadership program tailored to Carthage students to enhance their on-campus experiences and future professions. For more information, visit: carthage.edu/character-quest

1975 The Rev. Daniel Lee Gard was elected president of Concordia University Chicago in River Forest, Illinois. He was installed at the university’s opening service Aug. 24 and inaugurated Oct. 11. Rev. Gard previously served as professor of exegetical theology and dean of the military chaplaincy programs at Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne, Indiana. He had taught there since 1989. He serves as rear admiral (lower half) and only months ago was appointed to the position of deputy chief of chaplains for reserve matters in the U.S. Navy. In these roles, Rev. Gard oversees chaplain operations in Navy, Marine, and Coast Guard reserve units around the world. In the military, Rev. Gard notably served during the 9/11 Pentagon recovery operations in Washington, during Operation Iraqi Freedom, and most recently at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba. Rev. Gard earned his Bachelor of Arts in history from Carthage and his Master of Divinity from Concordia Theological Seminary. He earned both his M.A. in Hebrew Bible and Ph.D. in Hebrew Bible/Judaica with minors in New Testament and Liturgics from the University of Notre Dame.

Tau Sigma Phi reunion Even after over 40 years, the Tau Sigma Phi brotherhood remains as strong as it was in the 1970s, writes Steve Clowson ’74. “Since 1974, several Tau Sigma Phi alumni have gathered to enjoy friendship and brotherhood. We shared planning the fraternity’s 10, 20, 50-year reunions, college dating, weddings, our children’s weddings, funerals and other of life’s major events. Careers have taken us both near and far from Illinois and Wisconsin, but the emotional bond created at Carthage through pledging, partying, and classes continue to keep this group gathering to share new life experiences. Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan, and Florida homes have been the gathering places over the past 40 years … Wives, several Pi Theta and Kappa Chi Omega sisters, are best friends sharing life’s stories and tolerating husbands antics and stories at these gatherings. Euchre, racquetball, poker, and golf tournaments are always prevalent. The 2 a.m. air guitar and curling iron karaoke at the first gathering is one more rehashed memory. But the backbone of it all is the bond formed 40+ years ago on 2 South, and the strong marriages we each committed to many years ago that keeps this group gathering year after year. It’s been a great 40 years, with many more gatherings to come. “Thanks for keeping Carthage Flame burning, Tau Sigma Phi alumni!”

PAGE FROM THE PAST
A slice of Carthage history from the Staubitz Archives
Inkwell of support never dried up To start and maintain any academic institution, especially during its first few years, charity is required from the community, faculty, alumni, and students. That certainly was true in 1852, when the institution that eventually would become Carthage College moved to Springfield, Illinois, changed its name from Hillsboro Academy to Illinois State University, and started to accept students. The school was founded as a Lutheran seminary to train pastors and missionaries to the west. One way to raise the needed capital was through subscriptions or shares. Much like modern shares, these allowed people to donate a small amount of money to complete or fund a project. Today, this is more common in the financial markets, but in the 1850s to the 1870s Carthage and its predecessors had at least three recorded subscription or share campaigns. The most famous is the one that made Abraham Lincoln a member of the College’s Board of Trustees. Recently, the opportunity arose to digitize one of the oldest documents in the Staubitz Archives: a subscription book — not the one involving Lincoln, but a lesser known one. Written when the school was just beginning its move from Hillsboro, the book was used by the College to garner support among the citizens of Springfield. Promised donations, as well as money given at the time, were recorded in it. It is organized by amount donated, with pages specifically for donations of $100 (a huge sum in the 1850s), $50, and on down to $1. Missing is a record of when these donations were given, which
donations alone totaled more than $160, the equivalent of more than $4,000 in 2014 dollars. Not only that, but there were 20 donations from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, home to the oldest continuing Lutheran seminary in the nation. Each of these people donated $1 because they believed the statement and the president, that the university would be useful for the Lutheran synod in the area. The subscription book has a statement of purpose on its third page: “The undersigned being well acquainted with the character & usefulness of “Illinois University” [sic] conducted under the sanction of the Lutheran Synod in said states, and designed to educate young men for the gospel ministry, take pleasure in recommending the Institution to the patronage of the Christian public in general and of the Lutheran church in particular. They also command the Rev. C. Kuhl, the agent of said Institution, as a brother worthy of all confidence.” This page from a 19th century subscription book lists contributors of $10 to $20 to Carthage’s predecessor, Illinois State University. A $10 gift at the time would be equivalent to about $300 today.
is why the subscription book’s exact date is unknown. Like today, people in the 1850s sometimes would spread their donations over several weeks or months as their budgets allowed. One individual, Christian Dale, pledged $10 and paid in two installments of $5. An equivalent donation in 2014 would be approximately $300, which makes Mr. Dale’s installment plan understandable. The largest donation was $50 (comparable to $1,470 today), but the majority was in smaller amounts — specifically 50 cents to $3. The $1
This very small book represents the community spirit that changed ISU from an idea to a reality. Numerous congregations, people from other parts of the country, and local leaders donated funds because they felt having a college would be beneficial to all. Later, when the school moved to Carthage, Illinois, officials again relied on the subscription model to gain support for it. Carthage and its predecessors always have looked to their communities for support and encouragement, in part because a college is not just a campus. It has an impact on the surrounding area and on intellectual discourse. The significant level of support shown by people from the 1850s to the 21st century acknowledges the important work that colleges and universities do in society.
