Strategic Plan
PROGRESS AND RENEWAL For Newberry College, 2011 was a year of significant progress and forward momentum – from academics to athletics and from campus improvements to increasing student participation and partnerships with community organizations. The College initiated and implemented a comprehensive strategic planning process that involved every major stakeholder group and featured a series of town hall meetings for the entire campus community.
EMBRACING CHANGE AND FOCUSING ON THE FUTURE... Newberry College welcomed one of its own, Dr. John Hudgens, the 19th President of Newberry College and former interim president (2010), into the role of acting president. Hudgens stepped in following the resignation of the College’s 21st President, Dr. Scott Koerwer. Dr. Hudgens will lead the College in every aspect of its operation and academic mission while the search for a new president takes place. Picking up where President Koerwer left off, Dr. Hudgens has focused campus attention to the implementation of the College’s new Strategic Plan, Education for Life –The Newberry Education Ecosystem, which will continue to elevate the College to become an institution of regional and national distinction.

Lutheran Values
TRANSFORMING LIVES
A sub-committee led by Campus Pastor Ernie Worman developed a statement that defines the Lutheran values that are a central part of Newberry College’s campus culture. The statement defines the core set of values as follows: the Lutheran intellectual tradition creatively engages the dialectic tensions inherent in the dynamic nature of human life. Newberry College will re-establish itself publicly as aligned with the Lutheran church and be guided by a set of educational principles that emanate from the Lutheran intellectual traditions. Among these core values are… Faith and Reason – • Truth is the ultimate objective of both faith and reason which is best obtained through the integrated pursuit of free inquiry, hypothesis and rigorous scholarship. In keeping with the school’s historic faith, motto and mission, Newberry College leads students to learn and respect the Judeo-Christian faith, history, traditions and supporting documents in the context of a pluralistic dialogue among the sciences, arts and global religions. Freedom and Responsibility – • Each person has individual rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness and also has a corporate responsibility for others in an environmental and civil context. Newberry College encourages each member of its community to use the unique freedoms and characteristics of individual personhood as his/her fundamental contribution to citizenship in both local and global community participation.
Diversity and Inclusivity – • Community arises when people of widely diverse walks and degrees of faith, cultural backgrounds, genders, races and nations of origin recognize their shared humanity. Newberry College fosters empathetic knowledge of one another by modeling civil discourse, respecting each person’s dignity and individuality, and seeking to fully understand the self and others as equally-valued global citizens. Personal and Public Vocation – • Vocation affirms the sacred nature of the whole person: his or her personal and public relationships, divinely-revealed gifts and contributions to church and society. Newberry College encourages each individual to discover and pursue his or her calling and to exhibit faithful service to God and community in every facet of his or her life.
SETTING A NEW STANDARD FOR ACADEMIC AND LIFE ACHIEVEMENT The Newberry College community expressed deep appreciation to Pastor Ernie Worman and committee members Dr. Mike Beggs, Rev. Dr. Wayne Kannaday, Rev. Dr. Christina Wendland, and Rev. John Derrick for their fine efforts. The work of the chaplain and campus ministry, the focus we place on these values in our Summerland Honors Program and the various speakers and youth programs we host on campus are great examples of how we bring this values statement to life in our community.
Student Life
ENGAGING WITH THE COMMUNITY
40 Newberry College welcomes students with every passion and purpose – from academia to art, from publications to politics, and from discourse to dance. On campus, more than 40 student organizations, including Greek life, intramural sports, honor societies and student government spark conversation, build community and provide a creative outlet.
ORGANIZATIONS FOR YOUR SOCIAL, CIVIC, MUSICAL, SPIRITUAL, ARTISTIC AND INTRAMURAL PLEASURE
In 2011, Newberry College students had more opportunities for engagement and community participation than ever in the College’s history. From the Newberry Opera House and the Newberry Observer, to musical and theatrical groups, to community service, to music and athletics, students found ways to get involved and make an impact in the community.
SCETV’s Films • Department Chair Patrick Gagliano completed his fourth acting project with South Carolina Educational Television’s “South Carolina Heroine’s Series.” Two graduates of our Communications program, Xavier Blake and Titus Davis, served on crews for these films that were shown statewide in middle and elementary schools.

Under the leadership of Dr. Sally Cherrington Beggs, and with its newly-renovated Alumni Music Hall and close relationship with Newberry Opera House, the department featured several performances by notable musicians on campus. College choral and jazz music groups also performed around the state and region, with the College Street Jazz Connection performing at the New Orleans Crescent City Jazz Festival. Call Me MISTER Program • Newberry announced the arrival of five new students in the school’s Call Me MISTER program. The MISTER program (Mentors Instructing Students Toward Effective Role Models) is a national recruitment and support program designed to increase the number of elementary school teachers with diverse backgrounds.
Youth Leadership Programs • In the summer, Newberry College was proud to host the annual South Carolina Synod Lutheran Youth Convention and the Youth Leadership Forum for students with disabilities. These programs were a tremendous part of the College’s service activities and provided these students a chance to experience Newberry’s campus. International Studies • To celebrate the start of the Department of Business and Behavioral Sciences International Studies degree, Rick Myer, past-President of Siemens Solar (Atlanta), discussed “Technical Migration in the Global Industrial World.” He challenged students to think about opportunities in international trade, offshoring, technical migration, specialization and dependency. His presentation increased student awareness of the global economy.
Internship Opportunities • Newberry announced an agreement with The Washington Center to provide internship opportunities that are available to all students. Center for Student Success • Under the leadership of Jane Willis and Kay Chandler, Newberry College launched its new Center for Student Success that is located in Wessels Library. The 1500 square foot learning commons area replaced study carrels with computer work stations and moved Career Services staff into a centralized location so they could better assist students with their academic needs.
Community Partnerships • Newberry College students began new initiatives for engagement and hands-on learning in the community. Students began writing and editing news stories for the Newberry Observer and working as interns for the Newberry Opera House. Newberry business students also studied economic development in the region and provided recommendations to the Newberry Chamber of Commerce on downtown business development.

Revitalization

In 2011, Newberry College launched a series of campus-wide initiatives to further enhance its academic, social and cultural experiences for students, faculty and staff. During the year, the College worked with West Electrical Contractors of Newberry on a variety of capital improvement projects, while continuing construction and renovation on select buildings. If you have not been on campus recently, please visit and see all the improvements. During the year, as part of the strategic planning process, Newberry College renewed its commitment to moving to the forefront of higher education. Through a self-study required by SACS (Southern Association of Colleges and Schools), the College considered ways to improve infrastructure. This ongoing process is part of a long-term plan for growth and development of academic, social and athletic programs.
