FEATURE STORY:
Ramapo College Receives $2 Million Gift from Elaine and Mike Adler, Embarks on $54 Million Modernization of Labs and Classrooms PAGE 8
FROM THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT
In the words of Italian writer Pietro Aretino, “Let us love winter, for it is the spring of genius.” Accompanied by the cool winds that, according to meteorologists, are Canada’s largest export, winter has officially arrived at Ramapo College of New Jersey. Despite the chill in the air, the Ramapo campus is warmed by the generosity of our many supporters and invigorated by the achievements of our students, faculty and staff.
2010 marked the opening of the Salameno Spiritual Center, a sanctuary for meditation, reflection, and celebration whose construction was funded entirely through private philanthropy. Joined by Paul Krugman, Nobel Prize winner and New York Times columnist, we also celebrated the opening of our new Global Financial Markets Trading Lab and the 5th floor of the Anisfield School President Peter P. Mercer and Dr. Jackie Ehlert-Mercer welcome the Educational Opportunity Fund Class of 2014 at the Havemeyer House in September. President Mercer received an award from EOF for his ongoing support of the College’s EOF Program.
of Business (ASB). The College also celebrated the accreditation of the ASB by the prestigious Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business. Thanks to the support of our Board of Trustees, at this time next year Ramapo will embark upon a 25,000 square foot addition and complete refurbishment of our G-wing complex. Upon completion, the schools of Theoretical and Applied Sciences and Social Science and Human Services will have facilities whose standards are commensurate with the excellence of their programs.
Thanks to the superior quality of our faculty, staff, and students and the advocacy of our alumni, trustees and donors, especially individuals such as Elaine and Mike Adler, Ramapo’s reputation among all of its constituencies is growing stronger. Of the 49 public colleges and universities in the category Regional Universities, North, Ramapo advanced for the fourth year in the U.S. News & World Report ranks to number 4. In the much larger general list, we moved from 27th last year to 25th this year.
Ramapo continues to be a wise investment for public and private support. In 2010, the College successfully competed for a $1.6 million federal grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) for the construction
of our science facilities, and our high rating by Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s has remained very positive. We will continue to prudently and strategically allocate resources to enhance the value of a Ramapo degree.
As we enter 2011, Ramapo is not exempt from the woes of the economy. However, we are attempting to approach these challenging times adroitly. In addition to securing the NSF grant, Ramapo has partnered with private industry to replace the roof on our academic buildings at no cost to the college. Also, over the past 6 months I and the other public college Presidents have worked with former Governor Tom Kean, through his leadership of the Higher Education Task Force, to identify strategies for NJ colleges and universities to more effectively contribute to the economic vitality of the state.
By promoting the value of a Ramapo liberal arts education, all of our stakeholders contribute to the “spring of genius.” In the pages that follow, you will find remarkable stories that epitomize the giving that makes a tangible difference in the lives of our students. I thank each and every donor for their generosity.

MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES
MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES CHAIRMAN A. J. Sabath ‘93 As I reflect upon my first year as Chairman of the Board of Trustees at Ramapo College I am invariably drawn back to my first days at Ramapo College. I was a shy, uncertain freshman, but with the help of faculty, staff and fellow students I grew into a confident young man who has always been all the better for the years spent on this campus. I have seen the College grow from a largely commuter campus to a stateof-the-art facility whose residence halls are the envy of public and private colleges throughout the region and whose beautiful grounds know no match.
As I think about recent accomplishments and progress, I am again drawn back to the fact that all good things here at Ramapo always flow from the efforts of a wonderful community: our generous supporters and friends, our talented and dedicated faculty and staff, and our students.

growth and fulfillment of the promise that is at the heart of Ramapo College. Our student recruitment and retention goals have been surpassed and we successfully completed a review by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education. The Sharp Sustainability Education Center saw its first classes of the College’s new Master of Arts in Sustainability Studies, a new and unique program for the state of New Jersey and the region. And the Anisfield School of Business accreditation by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business concluded this fall with a most successful team visit to campus. The College also recently cut the ribbon on the new Salameno Spiritual Center on the bank of Kameron Pond, which will be a place for our students to gather, discuss and worship. In the midst of all this growth, the College’s Board of Trustees is committed to planning for the future. With the recent approval of a $54

million renovation to the G-Wing, which houses the School of Theoretical and Applied Sciences and the School of Social Science and Human Services, the Board is ensuring that Ramapo College continues to draw stellar students who will be the leaders of tomorrow. In order to put a new roof on the Phase I Academic Buildings, Wings G and H, the Library, the Student Center and Pine Hall, we have availed ourselves of a new state law that allows us to partner with private companies to install photovoltaic panels on campus. As a result, the College will receive the new roof at no expense and we will save an estimated $124,000 annually in utility expenses. The future is bright for Ramapo College, thanks to the collective of efforts of those who cherish and nurture it. Thank you all.

MESSAGE FROM THE FOUNDATION BOARD OF GOVERNORS
MESSAGE FROM THE FOUNDATION BOARD OF GOVERNORS CHAIRMAN Robert Tillsley Ramapo College continues to accrue accolades as one of the best public colleges in the Northeast. The Ramapo College Foundation and its Board of Governors are active partners with the College trustees and community to secure funding for the development of new campus initiatives to keep Ramapo at the top of the list. In a year marked by dire reports about the economy and funding for public colleges, we share good news. And so, my message is one of numbers.
ROBERT TILLSLEY
Chair, Ramapo College Foundation Board of Governors
In 2010, 20 new endowments were established, five created with planned gifts, bringing the total to 138. We also funded our first endowed faculty chair/professorship in the Anisfield School of Business. The Foundation’s endowment experienced a tremendous three-year growth in principal of 141%.
It is gratifying to recognize academically motivated students, especially those in financial need. This past year, 252 scholarships were awarded by the Ramapo College Foundation,

and the number of Foundation Endowment scholars increased by 44% over the past five years.
Ramapo College is fortunate to attract faculty members who are conducting cutting-edge research, often involving student research assistants, and others who bring practical business experience to their classrooms. The Foundation also increased the number of government research grants applied for and realized a 75% increase in dollars awarded.
In addition to major fund raising events, the Distinguished Citizens Dinner, the Golf Outing and the Performing Arts Series, the Ramapo Rumble was held for the first time in May and attracted 148 motorcycleriding participants. Ramapo College relies on partnerships with area businesses and citizens. The Business Partners Program welcomed six new members and achieved a 13% increase in unrestricted revenue over the previous four-year average. Contribu-

tions to the Annual Fund increased, as did the number of donors.
Our alumni are active and spread across the country! We’ve increased the number of alumni events, and within each School have developed alumni advisory boards. Membership in regional alumni chapters in New York City, Washington, D.C., and Phoenix, Arizona, as well as locally in Bergen and Mercer counties, is growing.
The generosity demonstrated by donors, alumni, the Board of Governors, the Trustees, the Friends of Ramapo, the President’s Parent Council and corporate members of the Business Partners Program is inspiring and a testament to the confidence shared about the outstanding liberal arts education Ramapo College offers. On behalf of the Board of Governors, I thank everyone who has made a commitment to the College and to our students’ futures.
Ramapo dedicated the Salameno Spiritual Center in October. Board of Governors Chairman Robert Tillsley presented inaugural lecture presenter Dr. Martin Marty with an honorary gift at the ceremony.

RAMAPO RECEIVES $2 MILLION GIFT EMBARKS ON $54 MILLION MODERNIZATION By Christopher Hann Elaine and Myron “Mike” Adler have generously supported Ramapo College for nearly a quarter century, but the gift they gave last fall will stand as the linchpin of their philanthropic legacy. Before a standing-room-only gathering on November 17, Ramapo College’s President Peter P. Mercer announced that the Adlers were donating $2 million to help expand the College’s nursing facilities in what will be the new Adler Center for Nursing Excellence.
The gift from the Adlers will help launch a $54 million renovation and expansion of Ramapo’s G-Wing, home of the School of Theoretical and Applied Science and the School of Social Science and Human Services. The Adler Center for Nursing Excellence will be housed in a new 2½story structure that will connect to the existing G-Wing building by an overhead walkway. “I am overwhelmed by the generosity of Mike and Elaine Adler who for so many years have been among the greatest friends and supporters of Ramapo College,” Mercer said. “This most recent gift will leave their indelible imprint on our outstanding nursing program.” Dozens of nursing students and professors in attendance whooped their applause.

The experience also gave Elaine a heightened appreciation for the work performed by nurses, leading eventually to the Adlers’ $2 million gift. “I’m so proud of Elaine,” Mike Adler said during “I am overwhelmed by the generosity of Mike and Elaine Adler the November ceremony, which was who for so many years have been among the greatest friends attended by all of the Adlers’ four grown children. “She has been inand supporters of Ramapo College.” volved with Ramapo College for PETER P.

For the Adlers, the $2 million gift, which brought their total giving to Ramapo College to nearly $3 million, is rooted in personal experience. In 1993, following heart surgery, Mike suffered a stroke. In the aftermath he experienced aphasia, a brain disorder that makes communication difficult. The couple responded by founding the Adler Aphasia Center in Maywood, which today employs a staff of 17 and helps up to 100 members each week. Elaine Adler says the

He recalled that his father, a doctor, received his medical degree in 1904. “He would be very proud to have the Adler name grace this new building,” he said.
FROM ELAINE AND MIKE ADLER, OF LABS AND CLASSROOMS The new nursing building is part of a critically important construction plan designed to bring Ramapo’s G-Wing, which contains outdated science classrooms and labs, into the 21st century. “We occupied the building in 1976,” says Bernard Langer, dean of the School of Theoretical and Applied Sciences (TAS). “Then, it was state of the art. Now, it’s 35 years old.” The proposal calls for modernizing all four floors of the 98,000-square-foot G-Wing. The construction will be jump-started with a pair of projects, one of them funded by a federal grant, to renovate third-floor lab spaces. One project will create an $803,000 microbiology teaching lab for use by classes of up to 24 students. The other, underwritten by a $1.6 million grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF), will fashion from three outdated labs a modern industry standard biology research suite.
The building plans aim to fulfill what Ramapo officials have identified as one of the College’s most urgent needs. The School of Theoretical and Applied Science and the School of Social Science and Human Services are two of the largest schools on campus, combining nearly half the student population. Mercer, in assessing the overall infrastructure needs on campus, says that from a “substantive academic standpoint,” no project was deemed more important than improving the science labs.

high. About 1,300 Ramapo students – nearly a quarter of the College’s enrollment – major in science or nursing. In addition, dozens of students pursue their own research projects under the TAS Research Honors Program, which culminates each year with a spring symposium.

NSF funding is rarely use for capital projects, Director of the Master of Science in Educational Technology program and Professor of but the Obama administration Biology Angela Cristini (right) offers a student technological advice about the completion of her web-based final project for the master’s program. was seeking ways to provide construction funding under the federal stimulus program, and Ramapo’s “A fair number of high schools have better record of undergraduate research caught the lab facilities than we do,” Saiff says. “When those students who are really interested in sciattention of decision-makers at the NSF. ence walk through – we do have equipment, Langer credited Ramapo’s “record of research we do have great faculty – we’ve been able to over the last five or six years” and the work of counter limited facilities with a faculty that’s preparing the grant application by Biology been successful at presenting at professional Professor Angela Cristini, who also directs meetings.” Ramapo's Master of Science in Educational Technology program. Langer also credited TAS faculty members for their guidance in planning the renovations, in particular Tom Owen, an assistant professor of Microbiology, and Seung-Sup Kim, an assistant professor of Biochemistry. “We thought Ramapo would qualify because we have a wonderful undergraduate research program,” Cristini says. “It came at the right time. It’s something you can talk about as a focal point, especially for highlighting how good our program is.”
The professors who use the G-Wing research labs work in tissue culture, biochemistry, and microbial and genetic methodologies. Each professor uses lab space with as many as 40 undergraduates per year. The current labs cannot always accommodate the installation of equipment necessary for new research techniques. Besides, much of the equipment and technology that students use to conduct their research is spread throughout the science building, hampering their choice of research topics and lengthening the time needed to complete experiments.
For current – and prospective – Ramapo students, the renovated G-Wing and addition will resolve the shortcomings. The refurbished research suite, for example, will include space designated for laboratory procedures and shared equipment common to biology, molecular biology, biochemistry, and environmental biology. It will contain what Tom Owen calls “sub-rooms” – a tissue culture lab, a cold room, an imaging room, a bacterial prep area, and, potentially, a polymerase chain reaction lab. The suite will contain new air distribution units, fume hoods, lab safety equipment, and bench configurations, new partitions, floors, and ceilings, and new electrical, lighting and computer systems. It adds up to what Owen calls “a more modern lab.” The open design of the renovated suite will provide space for experimental set-ups and common demonstrations of research methodologies, allowing for interactions between faculty members and between professors and students at any time. The cold room, tissue culture rooms, imaging room, and microbiology prep room will provide undergraduates the opportunity to conduct experiments involving protein purification, cloning, microbial gene expression and tissue culture.

Meanwhile, the new microbiology lab, to be built down the hall from the research suite, will be used to teach courses required by the nursing curriculum as well as upper-level biology courses. The space, currently a histology lab, will be equipped and furnished with lab benches and chairs, an autoclave, incubators, refrigerator, microscope storage, shakers and audio-visual equipment. Owen calls it “a better-designed teaching space.”
Langer says the revamped labs will provide students access to the sort of research technology and methods in common use in private industry and graduate schools, enabling them to make a seamless transition to those arenas. The new spaces will surely aid Ramapo’s longstanding commitment to faculty-student research. Langer says those efforts have been enhanced by the hiring of professors with experience working in research labs in private industry. For instance, Dr. Anita Brandolini, an assistant professor of analytical chemistry, spent 17 years at Mobil Chemical. Dr. Art Felix, an associate professor of chemistry, spent 30 years with Hoffmann-La Roche. Before he came to Ramapo several years ago, Dr. Seung-Sup Kim was a senior researcher at New York University Medical School.

“They really love working with the students,” Langer says. The planned improvements to Ramapo’s science facilities, “give them something to work with in the future. It’s a wonderful contribution to their professional lives.”

focused on finding a drug to combat osteoporosis, the deterioration of bone matter. “We were trying to find a drug that would put back bone that had been lost,” Owen says, “and that’s still what a lot of my research here with students revolves around.”
Owen says the new lab spaces will make an impact on current and future students. “You have all the medical schools and grad schools saying you need to have research experience,” he says. “If we can say we have student research opportunity and actually show them a modern, well-equipped lab, I think that’s a big draw.” President Mercer says he expects the expansion project to be one beneficiary of a comprehensive fund-raising campaign that is underway.
“It’s a very exciting prospect,” Mercer says. “We have a wonderful campus—extraordinary residential facilities, wonderful athletic and cultural facilities. We have opened the environmental sustainability center and the spiritual center. But other mainstream academic projects are now rising to the fore, and these will enable us to restore our academic buildings commensurate with other aspects of the campus, and that’s very exciting.”
THE ADLER LEGACY
Philanthropists, entrepreneurs, visionaries, community leaders – this Franklin Lakes couple sets an impressive example for all to emulate. On November 17, 2010 the Board of Trustees announced its new Center for Nursing Excellence would be named in honor of Mike and Elaine Adler. Born in New York City, both Mike and Elaine graduated from New York University. Upon graduation Mike delayed his dream of going to med-school to serve in the Army during World War II. After his return home, Mike decided that medicine was not his passion and he and Elaine pursued their dream of starting their own company. They launched Myron Manufacturing Corporation on February 14, 1949, which evolved from a plastics manufacturer into a mail order business specializing in marketing products exclusively to other businesses. Today this international family business employs nearly 1,800 people throughout the world. Recognized by various awards in New Jersey, Myron is known as an “Employer of Choice,” with a turnover rate of only 1.2% and average years of service at 27.
In 1982, Elaine launched her own catalog business, Comfortably Yours, the first consumer oriented line of home-health products that could be purchased direct rather than through surgical supply stores. Elaine closed the business in
1994 after Mike suffered a stroke and became aphasic. She returned to Myron Manufacturing to oversee management.
1949 was not only the start of Myron Manufacturing; it also was the start of the marriage between Mike and Elaine. Today, married for 61 years, they cherish their children: William married to Leslie, Richard married to Haekyung, Donald James married
to Dana, and Marie married to Saul Kravecas. Elaine and Mike value the special times they share with their 11 grandchildren.
Organizations have immeasurably benefited from the community service and generous philanthropy of Elaine and Mike. Ramapo was pleased to recognize the Adlers’ accomplishments by bestowing Elaine and Mike with honorary degrees in 1999. Students in Ramapo’s theater program have a fully-equipped, state-of-the-art theater to practice lighting, sound and staging techniques in the Adler Theater, thanks to Elaine and Mike’s generosity. Members of the
community benefit from lectures and performances available in the theater.
In addition to the annual support and sponsorships of the College’s fundraising events, the Adlers established a significant endowment to award student scholarships to needy students. This endowment reflects their strong belief that all deserve an opportunity to earn a college degree. Elaine and Mike are admired by their colleagues for the incredible role they play as community activists. Mike has served on UJA Boards and for more than 10 years of service on the Executive Board of Hackensack University Medical Center.
Elaine has shared her leadership with the USA Toy Library Association at The Children’s Aid and Family Service, Hadassah, Gilda’s Club, Community Resource Council and Ramapo College Foundation. Together, she and Mike, support the Jewish Home at Rockleigh, the Bergen PAC, Englewood Hospital, Holy Name Medical Center and the National Aphasia Association.
Most likely, however, their greatest personal triumph has been the creation of the Adler Aphasia Center in 2003. By virtue of their dedication, nearly 100 members each week find a Center where they can rediscover their life as they knew it before aphasia. The Center empowers, enhances and enriches the lives of people with aphasia and their caregivers.

Annual Fund
The Havemeyer Edible Garden was established by Ramapo College President Dr. Peter P. Mercer and his wife, Dr. Jacqueline Ehlert-Mercer in Spring 2006. Funded with private donations, the garden was established in response to a call for public institutions of higher education in New Jersey to initiate educational programs to prevent childhood and adolescent obesity. The garden is the foundation for a curriculum that provides Ramapo College students experience in sustainable eating and nutrition. Each year, area school children also visit the garden for courses on nutrition and sustainability. The educational programs at the Havemeyer Edible Garden are entirely run by volunteers under the guidance of Dr. Ehlert-Mercer. The Ramapo College Havemeyer Edible Garden’s Fourth Annual Fundraiser was held in September. Mark Winne, the author of “On the Necessity of Becoming Food Rebels and Smart Cookin’ Mamas,” spoke. The presentation was followed by an organic dinner, with fresh food grown in the Havemeyer Edible Garden or produced locally. This annual event is free to founders and supporters of the garden.

Gallery of Gifts
RAMAPO’S ART COLLECTION:
ENHANCING THE LEARNING EXPERIENCE
Gifts to the art galleries’ permanent collections are more than the symbolic complexity of a Haitian painting or the intricacies of an Asian vase. The artworks will augment the galleries’ intriguing contemporary exhibition schedule and allow visual arts faculty to illustrate the creative process to students.
In the college course setting faculty and students are able to view these works to demonstrate form and function in art and to cultivate appreciation for how and why art is created. According to Senior Jessica Huynh, “The expanding permanent collection greatly enhances the learning experience for all students by giving us a new world of knowledge at our fingertips that we would never normally encounter.”
Matthew Morris and Frank Svehla; 28 works of Haitian and Brazilian art from Larry Kent, former president of the Haitian Art Society who is credited with having one of the best folk art collections in the world and several additions to the Selden Rodman Gallery of Popular Arts from Carole Rodman.
“Having world class collections like these sets Ramapo apart from other colleges in the area,” said John Peffer, assistant professor of Art History. “It makes it possible for students to have first-hand access to the real thing.”
