jbu in focus JBU Completes $10 Million Challenge with Time to Spare JBU announced in January that it completed fundraising for the $10 Million Challenge, the endowed scholarship campaign initiated by an anonymous donorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pledge of $5 million in matching funds if JBU raised $5 million. The university had three years to complete the challenge, but the eager participation of alumni and friends allowed JBU to reach the $5 million goal in only 18 months. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The enthusiastic response from donors was amazing,â&#x20AC;?

When all the funds are received, the new funds will increase JBUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s scholarship endowment from $12 million to more than $22 million. Funds include current gifts and deferred gifts that will be available in the future when they mature. Starting this fall, over $300,000 in new scholarships will be available to JBU students. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have been blessed by the generous response of so many friends of JBU to this challenge to support JBU students through endowed scholarships,â&#x20AC;? Dr. Charles Pollard, JBUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s president, said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These endowment gifts will help generations of students, and we are deeply grateful for that support.â&#x20AC;?

Faculty, Staff, and Students â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rock the Cathedralâ&#x20AC;? to raise $105,000 for Renovations In a chapel service on February 23, President Charles Pollard asked faculty, staff, and students to get involved in the Cathedral Group Project, a campaign to fund major renovations to the Cathedral, Art, and Engineering buildings.

President Pollard asked the JBU community to pray for the project, to share their JBU memories from the buildings, DQG WR JLYH Ă&#x20AC;QDQFLDOO\ 7KH Ă&#x20AC;QDQFLDO JRDO RI WKH challenge was to raise $35,000, an amount that will pay for the stones that will clad the exterior of the Cathedral.

Each $25 donation paid for one stone. An anonymous donor committed to match each dollar raised by the JBU community up to $35,000.

Students helped to lead the charge for this on-campus campaign, which was dubbed â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rock the Cathedralâ&#x20AC;? (pun intended). They encouraged people to share stories, collected donations, and distributed promotional material that featured an image of John Brown, the founder, in a pose reminiscent of Uncle Samâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s World War I recruiting posters.

Those who participated in the campaign in any way were invited to write a message on the back of pieces of limestone that will be used to clad the Cathedral, therefore symbolically leaving their mark on the building.

The JBU community rose to the challenge and raised $35,000 with 87 percent of faculty and staff and 13 percent of students getting involved. With the matching gift from the anonymous donor, the JBU community brought in $70,000. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I deeply appreciate the response of the JBU community.

It has been yet another very tangible example of the deep commitment of JBUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s people to the mission of the university.

At JBUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spring board of trustees meeting in April, President Pollard described the campaign to board members.

One board member and spouse were so moved by the efforts of the JBU community and the anonymous donor that they gave an additional gift of $35,000, bringing the total raised through the Rock the Cathedral campaign to $105,000.

JBU Fine Arts and Communication Hosts First Arties Awards The bright lights, glamour, and high spirits of a red carpet event came to JBU in March when the Division of Fine Arts and Communication hosted the Arties in the Cathedral of the Ozarks. An Oscar-styled student works award show, the Arties recognized the outstanding work of student artists, designers, actors, broadcasters, and musicians. Each winner received a gold Arties statuette. The ceremony 6 Brown Bulletin Summer 2007

was sponsored by the Communication Arts Student Group (COAST), a student-led visual communications organization.

The event began with a red carpet entrance for the nominees, complete with JBU paparazzi and a live telecast of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;starsâ&#x20AC;? arriving broadcast on campus. There might not have been as many tuxes and evening gowns as seen at the Oscars, but attendees displayed their enthusiasm for the event dressing in attire ranging from fashionable to funky.

The Arties, which was free and open to the public, featured award presentations combined with live musical performances. The entire event was broadcast on JBUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s campus-wide television system. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The event hopes to provide a public arena for the studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; work, a means to bring the JBU community into the arts, and an event that will further integrate JBU with the Siloam Springs community at large,â&#x20AC;? said Todd Goehner, assistant professor of graphic design.

Word Records Signs Band of Alumni Jackson Waters, the band birthed while members Toby Friesen â&#x20AC;&#x2122;06, Ryan Hawk â&#x20AC;&#x2122;05, and David Leonard â&#x20AC;&#x2122;06 were students at JBU, recently signed a recording contract with Word Records. Their debut album, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Come Undone,â&#x20AC;? was released in February as their single, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Give Me Amazing Grace,â&#x20AC;? was being played on Christian radio stations across the country.

The band, which also includes Jesse LaFave and Siloam Springs native Brian Meek, began talking with record labels and praying about options even before graduation. As drummer Ryan Hawk describes, they wanted to sign with a company that was interested in building a â&#x20AC;&#x153;career band,â&#x20AC;? a band that would be built and developed as a long-term commitment rather than an overnight success. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We became a priority and they were like a family,â&#x20AC;?

Hawk said of Word Records. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They welcomed us into the family. That was important for us because we were, and still are, very new to this, and having people believe in you is so encouraging. We are considered â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;professionals,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; but in reality we are just working as hard as we can and writing what we are feeling and praying that people will catch on to what we are doing. ... The gospel is a wonderful picture that we do our best to present in music form,â&#x20AC;? Hawk said.

Since signing the deal and moving to Nashville, the band has enjoyed administrative support to manage bookings DQG SURPRWLRQ 7KH\ KDYH EHQHĂ&#x20AC;WHG IURP WKH FRDFKLQJ RI professionals in the industry. Still, Hawk says, they feel the pressure of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;dog-eat-dogâ&#x20AC;? nature of the music business. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s almost like starting over. You have to go play to people who have never heard of you ... miles away from home and the people who helped get you there.â&#x20AC;?

Hawk said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have it any other way though.

We thrive on the road, and we like building our fan base one person at a time. We get to drive around the country with our best friends and play music for a living. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a wonderful thing. We are blessed.â&#x20AC;? Q

chaplain’s corner Seeing, Hearing the Presence of God

by Tracy Balzer Director of Christian Formation

Journal Entry, Isle of Iona, Scotland – Tonight Cary and I attended the evening worship service at Iona Abbey. I have loved closing every day by going to these services. Each night at about 8:50 p.m. we hear the abbey chimes calling us to worship. They help me think about God even before I walk in the sanctuary, reminding me that this abbey, this island, is not just another tourist attraction, but a sacred place.

Tonight’s scripture happens to be my favorite of all the gospel stories, the account of Mary Magdalene meeting the newly risen Jesus at the empty tomb in John 20. Here on Iona it is just a few days after Easter, so the passage is a fitting choice. On Easter Sunday, Cary and I worshipped in Glasgow with the congregation of an historic church.

The pastor spoke on this passage then, too, and I loved hearing the reader that morning present the story in her rolling Scottish brogue: “Mee—r-r-r—ee,” she read, and continued describing Mary’s instant recognition of her Lord at the mention of her name.

I love this passage because Mary’s encounter with Jesus was one of deep intimacy and friendship, the kind of intimacy we all long for and for which we are made. When Mary’s eyes are opened to the reality of the living Jesus standing before her, a powerful connection takes place.

In an instant, she once again knows and is known.

I can’t help but reflect upon the many ways I fail to recognize the face and voice of Jesus in my own life. Like Mary, I find myself frantic or distraught, stressed and uptight, or sad and overwhelmed. My vision is too often clouded by my own distress, my eyes are drawn elsewhere by distractions. I turn in upon myself and cannot see that Jesus is right before me, saying my name, bringing me back to what is the truest form of reality: living in the presence of God. Worshipping in Iona Abbey, walking these ancient pathways, watching the rhythmic pattern of the ocean waves … these are some of the mysterious ways that Iona helps me to listen and to watch for Jesus. And when I do, I find that He is, as St. Patrick prayed, “beside me, before me, behind me, within me …”

Everywhere. Q

This is an excerpt from Tracy Balzer’s new book Thin Places: An Evangelical Journey into Celtic Christianity (Leafwood Publishers).

Each summer, JBU sends students all over the world for missions and study. Tracy has been a leader in a number of Irish studies and Irish missions trips, in addition to a JBU women’s pilgrimage to Iona, Scotland. This summer Tracy and her husband, Dr. Cary Balzer, are leading Biblical Studies students on a four-week study trip through Scotland and England.

Good Game, Coach !

by Simeon Hinsey ‘01 JBU Sports Information Director

Coach John Sheehy retires after 18 years at JBU Growing up on a farm in Bernie, Missouri, wasn’t exactly the prime location for John Sheehy to hone his basketball talent, but one man’s kindness helped mold the man most of us know today as Coach Sheehy.

“Outside of my parents, probably the most influential person in my life at that time was the high school basketball coach, Doc Dunn,” recalls Sheehy. “He would give me rides home after practice, and I knew from the time that I went to college that I wanted to be a basketball coach.”

Sheehy went to college at Southwest Baptist University where he met coach Rex Grady, another influential figure who solidified his decision to enter coaching as a career.

In 1971, Sheehy began his career coaching in Missouri high schools, and then moved to the college ranks, coaching at junior colleges in Missouri and Georgia. In 1982, Sheehy traveled to Howard Payne University in Texas where he first served as assistant coach and then as head coach.

When Sheehy came as head coach to JBU in 1989, he took over a program that had averaged only six wins the previous four seasons. In his first year at JBU, he almost tripled that amount by winning 15 games. During his second year, he did the unthinkable by winning a school record-

setting 25 games while leading his team to the National Christian College Athletic Association (NCCAA) championship.

“At the time it was quite an accomplishment to go to the Christian college tournament and win it because we were only 50 percent scholarship-funded, and we were playing teams that were fully funded,” said Sheehy.

Sheehy credits former players, such as Donnie Bostwick ’92 and Shane Benson ’92, for taking JBU basketball to the next level.

“During my first year here, we got real lucky because there were really better players here than we thought,” Sheehy said. “Then Donnie and Shane came in as juniors, and they where real serious basketball players.”

Bostwick and Benson were just the beginning in a long list of players whose lives Sheehy has impacted over his 18 years at JBU, and he hopes that every player he has touched will remember one thing.

“Given the set of circumstances that each year presents, I would like for the players to think that we tried to be the best that we could possibly be,” Sheehy said. “I would like for them to carry that attitude forward in whatever situation they’re in. When life has its ups and downs and trials, they can say that they learned to be the best that they could be while playing basketball for John Brown University.”

Most members of Sheehy’s teams are also quick to share

memories of him, and most will say that he had two different personalities while coaching. There was Coach Sheehy, the no-nonsense character you see during practice, and then there was John Sheehy, the sociable, quick-tolaugh character you see walking down the sidewalk while heading to class.

“I remember once when Coach made our team manager, Mike Castagna, do push-ups because he wasn’t helping with a drill correctly,” former JBU basketball player Dru Wheatcroft recalled.

“I’ve never seen a manager do push-ups. During practice we had to be serious about it, but when we got back to the locker room we all couldn’t stop laughing.”

Sheehy always maintained a businesslike atmosphere during his practices, and knew that it was his job to maintain a high level of play.

“The final thing was getting the job done and being as good as we could be,” said Sheehy.

“That drove my thinking enough that I was able to have a taskmaster personality or coaching personality that was different than my normal personality.”

At 61 years old, Sheehy said his decision to retire wasn’t a “knee-jerk reaction,” but that he wanted to retire while he could enjoy retirement with his wife of 40 years, Linda.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;The longer I coach from here may have a negative effect on the quality of life I can have in retirement,â&#x20AC;? said Sheehy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To me it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t that I thought that I was burned out, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve known coaches whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve stayed beyond when theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been effective, and I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to do that at John Brown.â&#x20AC;?

As Sheehy steps out, a new era of JBU basketball will begin next fall. Taking over where John Sheehy left off will be his son, former JBU basketball player Clark Sheehy â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;99. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m happy that Clark and Elisa [his wife] will be moving back to Siloam Springs, and we told him weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d try to stay out of his life as much as possible,â&#x20AC;? said Sheehy jokingly.

So for the man who dreamed of coaching college basketball and was lucky enough to live out his dream, whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next? â&#x20AC;&#x153;A friend of mine told me that playing golf every day would be like playing Oklahoma City [one of JBUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s toughest opponents] every day. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been out on the golf course a few times, and I think the guy is closer to right than I want to admit,â&#x20AC;? answered Sheehy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have any concrete plans about what to do except relax a little bit and volunteer our time.â&#x20AC;?

The legacy left by a retiring coach is greatly determined by how people will remember him. For Sheehy, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no question about what he wants people to remember. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Given all my strengths and weaknesses and the mistakes Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve made, I tried to do the best job that I could possibly do with the players and the team,â&#x20AC;? said Sheehy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t compromise the standards of John Brown to get it done.â&#x20AC;?

$10 MILLION STORIES JBU Education Faculty Work and Sacrifice to Create $100,000 Iddings Scholarship JBU’s faculty in the Education Division took the old adage “to teach is to touch a life forever” to a new level when they contributed $50,000 to fund a new scholarship for JBU education students. Their gift was matched by the $10 Million Challenge to create a $100,000 endowed scholarship named for Dr. Roger Iddings, a former division chairperson. Where did JBU faculty get the funds to establish the scholarship?

Four years ago, JBU faculty began serving the needs of Northwest Arkansas school districts by training teachers in English as a Second Language (ESL) methods through the Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) programs. Fees for these courses paid all JBU’s costs, including paying the faculty at a minimal rate for taking on extra classes. Any surplus revenue was then deposited in a fund to support the work of JBU’s Education Division with permission from JBU’s Academic Affairs office.

Although their moonlighting required effort, the Education Division faculty chose to take on the additional work believing that surplus revenue could benefit JBU’s education majors in some way. As the fund grew, the division began to dream about how to use this money. Although raising the instructor’s pay for teaching the TESOL program was an option, faculty were dedicated to focusing fund dollars on more altruistic goals.

“The instructors sacrificially gave their personal time to teach these courses to public school teachers and then turned around and gave their income to the division” Dr. Sandra Van Thiel, chair of the Education Division, said. “The education faculty was in agreement that the funds needed to be used for students in the Education Division. When we saw that the $10 Million Challenge gave us the chance to double our money toward an endowed scholarship, it was perfectly clear to us what we should do with the funds.”

The vision and leadership of Dr. Iddings was instrumental in laying the foundation to make the scholarship named after him possible. As chair of the Education Division from 1988 to 1997, he was responsible for seeing that JBU started training future teachers in ESL methods through the TESOL program. Iddings’ forethought about the importance of ESL/TESOL programs ultimately created the opportunities for JBU professors to train teachers in Northwest Arkansas and earn the funds that created the new scholarship.

The Dr. Roger Iddings Endowed Education Scholarship will generate about $5,000 every year in scholarship funds that will be awarded to JBU students.

$10 MILLIOn STORIES Generous Spirit Discovers Hidden Treasure Like many alumni who learned about the opportunity to double their gift to JBU through the $10 Million Challenge, one alumnus (whom we’ll call Jane) had a deep desire to give to the project. Unfortunately, Jane didn’t feel that she had enough available funds to meet the $10,000 minimum gift requirement of the Challenge. When she considered her assets, Jane thought about a 10-acre piece of property that she held and rented out.

It was worth about $50,000 she thought, and it generated a modest bit of income for her each year. In her generosity, Jane decided to donate that property to JBU to establish a new endowed scholarship through the Challenge.

Jane talked with Eric Greenhaw, her development contact at JBU, about her plans. In the process of preparing for the gift, Jane and Eric arranged for the property to be appraised. To everyone’s amazement, the property appraised at more than $90,000, nearly double the value Jane expected. Not only was the value of Jane’s gift nearly doubled, but the Challenge then doubled the value of her gift. In the end, the amount Jane was able to contribute to fund her scholarship was nearly four times the amount she thought she would be able to give.

But the story doesn’t end there. In giving her property to JBU, she worked with Eric to set up a Charitable Gift Annuity (CGA).

The CGA is a gift that pays an income to the holder, who in this case is Jane. The annual income that Jane is receiving through the CGA is more than what she was receiving in rent on the property she sacrificed.

Because Jane was willing to thoughtfully give to JBU, many have been and will be blessed. Jane’s income increased, JBU’s endowment grew, and students will receive more than $3,000 in scholarship funds each year for years to come.

Challenge Expands a Legacy of Helping Students Long before Lloyd McCullough was of college age, he planned to attend JBU. However, when World War II came along, his plans were changed. After World War II there was Korea. After Korea there were five children. Lloyd’s dream of attending JBU never came true.

So Lloyd made a commitment that all five of his children would attend JBU, and they did! One of those children is JBU associate professor of business John McCullough ‘71.

“When I first came to JBU, he told me I could not leave until I could do something productive,” John said. “I often wonder if that is why I am still at JBU some 35 years later!”

Not only did Lloyd and his wife Susan send their own children to JBU, but they quietly provided funds that helped many other students attend JBU as well. When Lloyd passed away in 2002, the McCullough family decided to direct memorial gifts to a JBU scholarship fund, a fitting tribute to the man who helped so many students. At first, the family hoped they would accumulate $1,000 toward an endowed scholarship. To their surprise the fund reached $2,000, and then over time it grew to $5,000.

When the $10 Million Challenge came into existence, promising to double contributions to endowed scholarships, the McCulloughs began to actively seek ways to contribute and grow their fund. At birthday parties for Lloyd and Susan, about 50 friends gave gifts toward the established McCullough scholarship. Those funds, combined with the family’s own contributions, were doubled by the Challenge.

Today, the McCulloughs say the scholarship fund has grown far beyond their wildest dreams, and they have even established a second scholarship fund.

“Our family is grateful for this opportunity to bless future students in remembrance of Dad. Dad was always involved in helping others become successful. This scholarship will be a perpetual continuation of his lifestyle,” John said.

his homecoming marks the 40th reunion of The Sound Generation, a musical group whose amazing talent was showcased around the country during the 60s IVL [ <PQ[ OZW]X [QOVQÅKIV\Ta promoted JBU and the wholesomeness of the school’s student body during a time when America’s youth were frowned upon as unpatriotic hippies and drug addicts.

The era of The Sound Generation began in 1967 when John Coates ’72 and Bill Hartman ’69, who had previously been involved with the musical group Harmonaires, began recruiting talent for a new music group. They named themselves the Certain Sounds and trained for three weeks before going to a talent competition at the Tulsa State Fair. On Oct. 7, ! +MZ\IQV ;W]VL[ \WWS ÅZ[\ prize in the competition.

Very soon after the Tulsa competition, the group changed its name to The Sound Generation when they found out that a California band already claimed the Certain Sounds name.

Receiving numerous requests to play at venues across the county, The Sound Generation—or simply The Sounds as they are often called—traveled extensively, performing for audiences of all sizes and promoting JBU all the while.

The group, which included both musicians and singers, had a broad repertoire that included gospel music, patriotic songs, band numbers, chorale arrangements, pop tunes, spirituals, and humorous bits.

Over the course of nine years, The Sounds played more than 3,000 shows and involved 144 young men and women as performers.

Among other performances, the group played and sang at Yankee Stadium, a Sugar Bowl, Disneyland, Knott’s Berry Farm, many state fairs, a Presidential National Prayer Breakfast, and on the TV show “Hee Haw” with Roy Clark.

They worked with Bob Hope, Ray Stevens, Hank Thompson, Minnie Pearl, Jody Miller, George Kirby, Pat Boone, Jonathan Winters, Florence Henderson, John Davidson, and others.

In the years since the group’s ÅVIT [PW_[ QV \PM ! · ! [KPWWT year, The Sound Generation family has held several reunions both on IVL WNN KIUX][ 1V \PM OZW]X performed a reunion concert for the Homecoming Showcase that wowed the alumni, friends, and students in attendance.

JBU has given us so much.

Why wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t we give back?

Throughout our years at JBU we were given an excellent education, a wealth of friendships and memories, and an environment in which we were challenged and enabled to grow in our relationship with Christ.

We know that many other alumni sacriďŹ ced to help us attend JBU, so now we want to help others experience its rich mission and ministry.

We also want JBUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s heritage of faith and education to remain strong in the years to come so that our children and their generation will be equipped to serve Christ just as we were.

Jump-Start Your Legacy With a New Tax-Saving Opportunity

I

f you are 70½ or older, recent legislation benefits YOU! Under the Pension Protection Act of 2006, you can make an outright gift to a qualified charitable organization like JBU by making a direct transfer from your individual retirement account (IRA)—without paying taxes on your distributions. Your gift can be accomplished simply and will maximize the benefit of your IRA dollars. Plus, making a gift now enables you to witness the benefits of your generosity to John Brown University.

The Benefits of the Pension Protection Act of 2006 •The charitable distribution counts toward your minimum required distributions.

•The transfer generates neither taxable income nor a tax deduction, so you can receive the benefit even if you do not itemize your tax deductions.

•You may transfer up to $100,000 in 2007 directly from your IRA.

Receive the benefits before time runs out.

This opportunity currently applies only to tax year 2007.
