FRONT COVER FEATURE

Maryville Grows in National Stature, Retains Sense of Community

M

aryville University has been quietly building its reputation as a student-centered community with high-quality academics that has, for years, produced a steady stream of successful graduates — and a growing pool of esteemed alums. Now, thanks to a 2013 U.S. News & World Report survey that ranked Maryville the top “overperforming” college in the nation, the word is getting out.

The ranking compares a university’s national rank — based on data such as admissions selectivity, financial and faculty resources, alumni giving, and graduation and retention rates — to its undergraduate academic reputation among peers.

Maryville ranked 160 among national universities, but only 247 in peer assessment.

This means it “overperformed” its undergraduate reputation ranking by 87 points, making it the No. 1 overperforming university in the country.

Maryville University President Mark Lombardi said the distinction “illustrates that, if you look at the objective data, we’re an exceptional university.”

“Our reputation is catching up,” he added. “But as everyone knows, usually reputation lags behind performance.”

Lombardi is thrilled with the ranking, because it supports Maryville’s goal of building its national standing.

“One of the visions of our strategic plan, which we initiated in 2007, was to make Maryville a nationally recognized

2013 U.S. News & World Report ranked Maryville No. 2 for its reputation of academic excellence among high-school guidance counselors. In athletics, Maryville recently made the transition from NCAA Division III to Division II, joining the competitive Great Lakes Valley Conference. university – and, essentially, we’re accomplishing that,” he said.

The ranking underscores a number of academic and athletic achievements that Lombardi said are creating “a real buzz about Maryville.” Another 2013 U.S. News & World Report ranked Maryville No. 2 for its reputation of academic excellence among high-school guidance counselors. In athletics, Maryville recently made the transition from NCAA Division III to Division II, joining the hyper-competitive Great Lakes Valley Conference.

“It’s considered the SEC of Division II,” Lombardi explained.

And the Saints have enjoyed success in the conference, with senior Matt Baker winning the NCAA Division II national wrestling championship and senior basketball standout Abby Duethman earning GLVC player of the year — both studentathletes also earned DII All-American Honors.

In March, Maryville scored another first: it was the only university in the country to receive the NCAA Division II Presidents Award for Academic Success with a 100 percent, four-year graduation rate for its student athletes.

“We’re moving up in athletics, but we’re doing it in the right way,” Lombardi said.

When it comes to “firsts,” Maryville is on a roll. In January, the university

announced an academic partnership with Rawlings Sporting Goods to create the nation’s first corporate-named sport business management major. The Rawlings Sport Business Management Program provides opportunities for students to intern at Rawlings and with organizations such as the Cardinals, the Blues and the Rams.

Lombardi described an excitement about Maryville’s academics, athletics and growing national reputation that is attracting students from around the globe.

“We now have students from 47 states and 28 countries,” he said, adding that fall enrollment is tracking about 15 percent ahead of last year.

Even with all the changes afloat at Maryville – including updated facilities, improved student services, outstanding athletics and an expanded offering of topflight academics – Lombardi said future students and alumni still recognize the one thing about Maryville that remains special.

“The strength, support and and foundation of the community is still here,” Lombardi reflected. “And that’s a good thing.”

The restoration of the 100-year-old barn on the property has been completed recently, and will continue to stand in the park as a reminder of that history. A community garden project begun at Eberwein is a great success; additional plots will be available this year for gardeners to enjoy.

In addition to a trail system, open play area and restrooms, Eberwein is home to a 2-acre dog park for residents and their canine family members. See Chesterfield’s Parks and Recreation website for Yappy Hour events.

Tasty Tidbits from Eateries in and Around Chesterfield Gianfabio’s Almond Encrusted Mahi Mahi

Party Themes from Lukas Liquor Superstore

127 Hilltown Village Ctr • 636-532-6686 • www.gianfabio.com

15920 Manchester Rd • 636-227-4543 • www.lukasliquorstl.com Spring is upon us and it's time to party. Party themes are a great way to get your guests in the party groove. Some themes can play a major role in getting your guests to mingle. People, at times, seem to break off in mini groups at party's. A classic is boys with boys in a room and girls in another. Here are some "theme" ideas to get you started.

Food and Wine Pairings: Set up different stations throughout your house. Each station has a perfectly matched wine and food pairing. It is rewarding to see a person experience a perfect food and wine match for the first time. Smoked salmon, cream cheese and a good Pinot Noir, crab dip with an Albarino and bacon wrapped figs with a Barbera are just a few examples of pairings. Don't forget chocolate and Imperial Stout.

Mixology Party: Set up all ingredients to mix any number of drinks. Each guest or couple goes to their station with their items in front of them. These drinks can be simple or complicated so there is a challenge to your guests. Pisco sours, Chocolate martinis or a Caipirinha made with Cachaca are some fun drinks to start with.

Brown Bag Party: Red wine is good in fall and winter. White wine is good in spring and summer. The hostess or guests bring their best choice under a designated dollar amount. All wines are voted on throughout the night. Guests also give their best guess as to the price of the wine. This is always interesting. Brown bag party's can come with a lot of imagination. All Chardonnay, all bubbly or all Cabernet brown bag parties are always fun. Make sure you strongly encourage your guests to drink plenty of water throughout the night.

REMEMBER: No matter how organized your theme party is, it won't last. About two hours into your party it will appear that things are out of control. Don't worry. Out of control simply means everyone is having a great time. In the end, isn't this what you want? Enjoy your summer.

O&A

carecrow is one of Chesterfield’s newest restaurants and it has already created quite a buzz in the area. The restaurant is locally owned and operated

by Chris Mertz and Shawn L-R. Scarecrow Owners, Chris Mulholland who have transformed Mertz and Shawn the previous Press Box Bar & Grill Mulholland. into an upscale, yet casual restaurant. They have created a nice ambience with dark, warm colors, more booths and high top tables, and the bar is now separated from the dining room with rich wood shutters which are open throughout the daytime hours for a nice friendly feeling, and closed at night creating an atmosphere that is quiet in the restaurant and fun in the bar ... just like it should be.

They have also built a small wine room featuring international wines- 45 or so bottles, and they offer a rotating choice of wines by the glass. In addition to a nice selection of wine, Scarecrow also features top shelf single-malt scotches, bourbons and single-barrel and Irish whiskey. It is rare to find a bar in the area with such an extensive selection. They host special ‘liquor tastings’ every so often.

The patio is large and inviting, adorned with colorful umbrellas and comfortable furniture. A separate dining area is adjacent to the patio which can be used for private parties of 35-40 people.

Scarecrow has a diverse menu featuring creative American cuisine.

Foods are made from scratch in-house, and the chef adds a spin on everyday food. There's a broad selection of appetizers, soups, lots of burger and sandwich choices, salads, wraps, vegetarian options, flatbreads, pizza and some amazing entrees. Appetizers include bacon wrapped, Irish ale-battered pickles with horseradish sauce, scotch eggs served with a Guinness or spicy creole sauce, rustic flatbreads including one topped with delicious short ribs, caramelized onions and fontina cheese, and a Thai chicken one as well. The pizza is St. Louis style and is very tasty. Salads include a unique grilled strip loin wedge- a sliced 6 oz strip on iceberg lettuce topped with crumbled blue cheese, egg, red onion with blue cheese dressing. Some sandwich options are an Irish club, shrimp po-boy and a classic French dip to name a few. Of course, the juicy burgers are always a favorite. They offer a bison burger choice as well The menu offers some outstanding dinner entrées.Try the Guinness pie- guinness braised beef, vegetables, hearty gravy and puff pastry cooked and served in an iron bowl. It is savory with tender fall-apart beef and an almost croissant like topping. Or the roasted Amish chicken with smoked bacon, Irish cheddar polenta and jalapeno corn succotash is also a house favorite. A New York strip steak, angel hair pasta with seafood, risotto, salmon and whitefish round out the menu.

Happy Hour happens every Mon to Fri from 3-6 p.m. There are $5.50 apps on the menu as well as $4 house wines and well drinks, and $2 draft pints.

Scarecrow is open for both lunch and dinner daily Hours are 11 a.m. to midnight Mon through Thurs, 11 a.m. to 1 a.m. Fri and Sat and 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sun. Go there soon. You will become a regular if you try it once!
