Benefactors Report Concordia was blessed with record-breaking contributions and involvement during the 2008 fiscal year.
LETTERS
Concordia Blessed by Servant Leaders “If one of the occupying military troops forces you to carry his pack one mile, carry it two miles.” Jesus’ advice, recorded in the Sermon on the Mount, probably startles the average person today as much as when Jesus first expressed it. Jesus knew that volunteer labor can bless both giver and receiver because volunteer efforts express love. Stories about volunteer labor for Concordia’s welfare abound from when I was a student here. As a shining example, for decades the Concordia Guild sewed curtains for dormitory windows. Mr. Richard Danowsky, Sr., now in the church triumphant, voluntarily drove around Minnesota picking up food donations (a lot of rutabagas, potatoes and onions) from individuals and congregations for the Concordia cafeteria. State health laws now prohibit such food collecting, but Concordia remains a place where volunteers make a difference. Concordia friends and alumni, like our featured alumna Sally Cordes ’55, give precious time and great talent to enrich Concordia. Our alumni gatherings have never been the same since Sally’s creative energy began to draw more graduates back for meaningful celebrations. In addition, students, faculty and staff volunteer thousands of hours in activities like tutoring children, teaching Sunday School or Bible class, singing in choirs, coaching sports, serving meals to the homeless, teaching English to new immigrants and traveling globally for Christian mission projects. This edition of “Concordia St. Paul” says thank you to all who give time, talent or gifts to Concordia. We welcome others to do the same. Jesus also said, “Let your light so shine before people that they see your good works and give praise to your Father in heaven,” Matthew 5:16. We gratefully see your good works. We thank you and praise God. In Christ, Bob Holst President
Concordia dedicates this issue of our magazine to our colleague and dear friend, Scott Harr, JD. Professor Harr died suddenly and unexpectedly on September 30, 2008 but our faith in Christ knows that our human loss must now also rejoice in Scott’s heavenly victory. Scott’s deep Christian faith motivated his dedicated and skillful expertise in leading Concordia’s Criminal Justice programs. His legacy leaves not only a solid academic program but also grateful students and loyal friends. We pray that his wife, daughter, son and all who knew Scott will find comfort and peace in the promises of God and the memories of a well lived life.
letter to editor Greetings Concordia: Thank you for the opportunity to be a part of the Homecoming activities this year. Your outreach efforts to the alumni of Concordia do not go unnoticed by your peers. Each alum shares similar fondness of Concordia and yet have had our separate journeys. God is able to use the unique talents and abilities He has given us to serve Him. Thanks for the memorable experiences of this past weekend and the opportunity to rekindle/ reflect on Concordia’s part of my journey. Many good people have been a strong influence on my life at Concordia. Looking forward to reconnecting at other opportunities ahead! Sincerely, Naomi Stohlmann ’98

COVER STORY
Giving Back
Alumni show appreciation for what the University has done for them When Bob ’55 and Sally (Clingenpeel) Cordes ’55 moved back to Minnesota in 2003 after retiring, their top request to their realtor was; “We have to be 30 minutes or less from Concordia University!” They wanted easy access to campus so volunteering and attending fine arts performances would be convenient. Sally can’t imagine not giving back to a place that has given so much to her. The same sentiment is shared by many alumni. For Sally, Concordia has provided her more than an education. It has served as the meeting place for her and Bob, a place for fine-arts entertainment, and a social outlet. Sally expresses her gratitude by spending retired days volunteering for Concordia. Sally became more involved with the University in 2004. “When our 50th class reunion approached, I called the alumni office and said I would like to be instrumental in planning the reunion,” said Sally. “And after the alumni director picked himself up off the floor he said, ‘Great!’ Nobody had come forward to offer to help in this way.” Sally formed and managed a committee that organized a reunion with record attendance.

The following year, President Holst ’56 was preparing his golden reunion and he knew of Sally’s success so he sought her help. Under Sally’s direction, golden reunion attendance has skyrocketed. She now spends between 10 and 20 hours each week coordinating all of the reunions and Concordia’s travel program. The key to Sally’s success has been getting alumni to encourage each other to attend. She takes a lot of pride in watching former classmates reconnect. “It’s so much fun for me to watch the golden reunion folks have fun,” she said. “That means I’ve done my job.” Sarah Erkkinen ’02, director of Alumni Relations and the Annual Fund, values the insights and work of Sally and the many other volunteers helping increase alumni engagement. “Concordia benefits greatly by having a network of alumni who are passionate about reconnecting with their alma mater and one another,” said Erkkinen.
COVER STORY She often turns to the Alumni Council. Sally and Bob serve on the council along with Paula Aman ’94, Rhonda BehmSevereid ’88, Jaclyn (Erickson) Davern ’01, Rev. Dennis Heiden ’79, Sheila Heiden ’79, Barbara Washington ’74, Steve Pickel ’76, Michael Korstad ’02, Rev. Dr. Ken Kaden, ClarenceJones(’99’03),JessicaEllis’08,andLoriHertzberg’88. The council, founded in 1910, works in partnership with the office of Alumni Relations in sponsoring and planning ways for alumni to reconnect and give back to Concordia. Each year the council forms action teams, known as “A-teams.” Last year, the council formed the Executive, Mentoring, Recognition, Homecoming, Legacy of Diversity and Volunteer A-teams. The teams hosted events to reconnect alumni, they rallied volunteers, provided valuable career resources for current students, and recognized outstanding alumni.

Dennis Heiden ’79, Jaclyn (Erickson) Davern ’01, Sally (Clingenpeel) Cordes ’55, Bob Cordes ’55, Lori Hertzberg ’88, Barbara Washington ’74, Michael Korstad ’02 and Jessica Ellis ’08. Not pictured: Paula Aman ’94.
Alumni Council members feel a sense of pride and involvement. “The University has maintained a commitment to excellence and acceptance in this global society without making an apology for its Christian standards,” said Clarence Jones (’99 ’03), Alumni Council vice-president. Members also feel loyalty to the University’s mission. “Concordia hasn’t lost sight of the Gospel as a central role in education,” said Rev. Dennis Heiden ’79. “I am able to stay connected to my roots and support what God did for me as a student while playing a role in that happening to other young men and women.” Bob Cordes feels the same. “I still promote the University because it’s such an important part of the church’s ministry,” he said.
COVER STORY Council members have a sense of connection to the Concordia community. “I get to know people who’ve experienced the University in a different era,” said Rhonda Behm-Severeid ’88, Council president. “It’s interesting to find you have a shared experience but went to Concordia 20 years apart.” The Council gets a glimpse into the lives of current students through their close relationship with the Student Alumni Council (StAC). StAC, founded in 2004, serves as the bridge between current students and alumni. Like the Alumni Council, StAC organizes and hosts events throughout the year for students to connect with alumni. Acting as ambassadors for the student body, they keep alumni in touch with life as a current Concordia student. Just the way current students share their lives with alumni, alumni enjoy telling students about their days at Concordia. Melissa Bergdall ’09, StAC member said, “I helped out with Golden Reunion for the class of ’58 and getting to listen to some of their experiences was priceless! I heard about how the dorms were set up, how much it cost to attend school, and other interesting things.”
willing to give back to Concordia in many ways,” said Erkkinen. “They’re focused on investing in the future of Concordia. They understand the stronger Concordia is, the more valuable their diploma is. They’re not satisfied with Concordia being mediocre.” Sally believes Concordia’s future is as bright as hers and Bob’s was at the moment of their meeting in chapel in 1955. “Concordia has come a long way since I was a student here,” Cordes said. “Some people have criticized that CSP isn’t what it was back in the 50s and 60s. Well of course not! I am not the same person I was back in the 50s and 60s either. The important thing is that the Gospel is still being taught and proclaimed here.” And for that reason, Sally and so many others think it’s important to give back.
StAC also works to maintain Concordia traditions. They celebrate Founder’s Day each fall to remind students of Concordia’s rich legacy. Root beer floats are served and those gathered sing happy birthday to the University. “StAC allows the entire Concordia family to keep its traditions alive,” said Bergdall. “We really encourage school spirit and giving back to the school that has given us so much.” StAC member Tim Sailer ’09 said the organization allows its student members to start thinking about what life will be like as alumni. “I’ve been able to gain a better sense of alumni involvement and what they can do for Concordia,” said Sailer. “Being a part of the Concordia community doesn’t stop once you get your diploma.”

Homecoming is a way for everyone to celebrate the Concordia community. The number of volunteers at Homecoming shows increased support for Concordia. This year, there were more than 60 Homecoming volunteers. Volunteers helped with registration, in the Bear Garden and with set-up and take-down. “Our events continue to be successful because of our great volunteer leadership,” said Erkkinen. Alumni Council past-president, Steve Pickel ’76, sees the value of volunteers too. “It takes volunteers to make this place go and there are a lot of people with different personalities and gifts that can generate ideas so that we can continue to shape and move this place forward,” he said. Erkkinen said volunteering is a meaningful way to impact future alumni and continually encourage and foster Concordia’s growth. “It’s inspiring to me to see alumni

Concordia Responds to Global Climate Change and the Growing Green Economy Dr. Bruce Corrie, dean of the College of Business and Organizational Leadership (CBOL) knows an emerging economy when he sees one. And as the green economy begins to boom, he is ensuring Concordia educates students to respond to the industry. CBOL will formally launch a green Bachelor’s of Business Administration degree in fall 2009 to fulfill the growing demand for qualified workers in the industry. Corrie said behind every technical job the industry creates, there are just as many business and management jobs. “Not every occupation is green but you can become green by making some changes,” said Corrie. He said the green BBA fits Concordia’s mission to prepare students for enlightened care of God’s creation. “We would like our students to think about the business decisions they make and be stewards of our resources.”

“When you’re greening the economy, we need to make sure people grow with it,” said Corrie. As another way to foster that growth, Concordia
partnered with ALANA (African, Latino, Asian and Native Americans) and hosted a Green Summit for community business leaders to talk about global climate change and their responses. Lois Quam, leader of strategic investing, green economy and health at Piper Jaffray, spoke at the summit and urged leaders to try new things and adapt quickly. “The measure of [Minnesota’s] success isn’t whether we’re moving quicker than in the past or quicker than other states,” she said. “It’s about the Earth. Global climate change—it’s begun, it’s underway.” Corrie is excited to meet the needs of the business world and world at large by offering this very unique degree. “The green economy has the potential to transform our lives in very dramatic ways. We at the College of Business and Organizational Leadership would like to prepare our students for the future green collar jobs and green businesses.”

Rare reunion
Vangs and Bergs Meet Again Help. It’s what Christians do — and what Leslie and Meredith Berg did when Augustana Lutheran in West St. Paul, Minn., asked members to sponsor Southeast Asian refugees. The Bergs stepped up and then let go without expectations. After 29 years, the families found one another again in a rare, joyous reunion.
Counterclockwise from top: Vangs and Bergs in 1979, Lia Pha Vang and her sons in 1979, The ring made of wreckage of vietnam War planes given to Meridith by the Vangs in 1979.
When Vangs and Bergs first met at Twin Cities International Airport in 1979, Meredith waved a photo at the gate. The Vangs knew no English. “I see my picture first,” remembers Houa Vang, now knowing English. “That made me feel better.” He was 23, his wife Lia Pha younger and pregnant. Their toddler scrambled beside them. Vang’s worry was his family. “Are they going to be safe,” he wondered. At an airport escalator, the newcomers stopped. The Bergs suspected cultural shock — but Houa Vang now describes a tired, pregnant wife afraid of falling. Vangs and Bergs took the stairs into their new life. Bergs assisted the Vangs in finding jobs and an apartment. They showed Vangs how to take buses and go to the clinic for baby shots and checkups. Then a return trip when the toddler burned himself with a pan of hot water. How did they communicate? “We didn’t,” said Meredith. A touch on the shoulder or smile sufficed when no translator was present. “Their lives were in our hands,” said Meredith, “and they knew that.” Once here, Vang learned English and took factory jobs. He now works at Pioneer Packaging and Printing Inc. in Anoka. Lia Pha does medical assembly work at another plant. Daughter Amme Vang, born in 1987, said her family lives what she calls “half the Hmong life, half the American life.” The passenger-service worker at Twin Cities International Airport praises her parents. “Mom and Dad always worked so hard,” Amme said. “They had the courage to bring the family over.”
Lee Pao Xiong, Concordia’s director of the Center for Hmong Studies, thinks reunions between refugees and their sponsors are rare. This one happened when the Bergs, of North Hudson, Wis. — Meredith a retired teacher, Leslie a retired 3M chemist, both longtime Concordia friends — saw a “Concordia St. Paul” magazine story on Xiong gathering archives. The Bergs sent Xiong photos of the Vangs and a ring from them made of remnants of wreckage from the Vietnam War. Xiong circulated the photos in hopes to reunite the families. The June 27 reunion surprised the Bergs. The Vangs now have eight children and seven grandchildren. All speak English, but quiet Lia Pha spoke volumes without it. “She did not let go of my hand the whole evening,” said Meredith. Meredith’s scriptural guidance on this one? Faith without works is dead. “We can make a difference in somebody else’s life, if we just step out of our own comfort zone,” said Meredith. Story by Marc Hequet

Concordia To Build Stadium and Outdoor Track
Sea Foam Stadium
With the largest single gift in Concordia’s history, the University launches a fund drive for a new stadium and outdoor track. The project will feature a football/soccer field, artificial turf, running track, field equipment, scoreboard, lights, temporary and permanent seating, parking, inflatable bubble, concession facilities, locker rooms, weight training, press box, outdoor plaza, offices, and hospitality rooms. The $5 million gift by Phil Fandrei ’51, Mark Hanson and Matthew Hanson, the executives and management of Sea Foam Sales Company, makes it possible for the University to undertake this project but significant fundraising is still needed. “It truly is another opportunity to
have God’s glory be exemplified,” said Phil Fandrei ’51. “Concordia is changing with the times and trends, but God remains at its center.” An on-campus athletic facility will strengthen Concordia and the community by boosting student recruitment and retention, enhancing school spirit and pride, offering community outreach, and increasing Concordia’s visibility. The stadium will be built on the corner of Concordia Ave. and Hamline Ave. and be visible to the hundreds of thousands of motorists who travel Interstate 94 daily. Concordia hopes to open the facility by the fall of 2009.
President Holst and athletic director Tom Rubbelke accept a $5 million check from Phil Fandrei ’51 for the new Sea Foam Stadium during the Homecoming football game.

Life-long Passion for Art Earns Fields McKnight Fellowship Concordia resident artist, Marko Fields, has had a few epiphanies in his life. One of his greatest was in 1991 when he first laid his hands in clay. Since then, Fields has developed a passion and knack for developing high-caliber artwork that has earned him one of this year’s prestigious McKnight Fellowships.
With the remainder of his fellowship money, Fields will travel to various cities in Mexico exploring native art. “I find myself drawn to the art by tribal and indigenous communities who don’t even have the word art in their vocabulary,” said Fields. “They cover their clothes, bodies and houses with this art but they don’t even consider it art. It’s very much an intrinsic part of their lives.” This spring, Fields also plans to conduct research in Jingdezhen, Fields’ enthusiasm for art blossomed long China, the porcelain capital of the world. before he discovered clay. His affinity for native art is rooted in his Comanche heritage Fields said receiving the fellowship was a defining and Wichita, Kan. upbringing. He started moment in his career. “I’ve won a lot of prizes, taking art lessons as a child and his interest shows and awards along the way but getting a never waivered. Fields dropped out of college McKnight is the most sublime of all of those,” in the 1970s but never let go of his desire to he said. “It’s a validation that in 1991 when I set become a college art professor. After beating off on a mid-life career change, which was scary, the substance addiction that he struggled that it was indeed the right thing to do because with throughout his 20s, he met Amy, who I found my life’s work.” became his wife and encouraged him to fulfill his dream of becoming a professor. Fields enrolled at the University of Kansas in 1991 to obtain his bachelor of fine arts degree. It was at KU where Fields was introduced to clay, a life-changing moment he ranks next to the moment he first saw the 12 steps of recovery. “It was one of the pivotal moments in my life,” said Fields. “It is what I’d been looking for all of my life.” He went on to earn his master of fine arts degree from Kansas State University and achieved his lifetime goal of becoming a college professor.

For his outstanding work in ceramic arts, Fields earned a prestigious McKnight Foundation Fellowship this year including $25,000 to spend reflecting and exploring art to further develop his craft. Wanting to give something significant to Concordia and to continue researching his medium, Fields purchased a soda kiln for the art department with a portion of the fellowship money. The kiln introduces diluted baking soda to the clay pieces when it reaches a very high temperature. “It creates flashing and visual affects you can’t get any other way,” said Fields “It’s quite dramatic and beautiful.”

ST. PAUL SOCIETY
Letter from Nathan Laible
Director of Planned Giving In the last issue, I introduced myself and described the St. Paul Society. Now in the enclosed annual benefactors report, I ask you to join us in celebrating all our St. Paul Society members who are recognized on pages 29-30. Remember, all persons and families who have made a planned gift commitment – an estate gift, a life income gift or any other type of planned gift, are members of the St. Paul Society.
Should your name be there? I do not want to miss an opportunity to thank you for your generosity in including Concordia in your plans. So please let me know and I will enjoy hearing more about your wishes for your gift. I will also ensure that you receive the St. Paul Society benefits such as: recognition in the annual benefactors report, invitations to special events on campus and “insider briefings� from the president of the University. If your name is not listed, but you have or are considering leaving a legacy to Concordia, please contact me. I will be honored to assist you with planning an estate gift, a guaranteed life income gift, or other creative arrangements that can benefit you, your loved ones and make a meaningful impact at Concordia. St. Paul Society benefactors have peace of mind knowing their wishes for the gifts God has entrusted to them will be fulfilled. I can be reached at 651-641-8256 or toll-free at 866-476-9277 and via email at laible@csp.edu. Blessings!
Nathan Laible, JD Director of Planned Giving P.S. I have seen Concordia referenced in many different ways in estate planning documents. The correct legal name is: Concordia University, St. Paul. Having the correct legal name spares unnecessary confusion among executors, attorneys, banks, and charities, plus it reduces potential legal and court fees.
Visit csp.edu/plannedgiving for complimentary and confidential estate planning tools and information designed specifically for members of the Concordia University, St. Paul community.
