Seattle University is #6 in the latest Peace Corps rankings of the top volunteer-producing colleges and universities across the country. Currently, 15 SU alumni are volunteering worldwide. This is the third consecutive year the university has been in the top 10 for small colleges. “The same passion that launched the Peace Corps more than 50 years ago fuels progress in developing countries today thanks to the leadership and creativity that college graduates bring to their Peace Corps service,” said Peace Corps Acting Director Carrie Hessler-Radelet. Since the first days of the Peace Corps, 357 SU alumni have traveled abroad as volunteers.

Paul Holland, associate dean of the School of Law, is the 2014 recipient of the McGoldrick Fellowship. James B. McGoldrick, S.J., was an extraordinary teacher and administrator who modeled Jesuit education at its best and always put Seattle University’s students first. These are the same values that Holland demonstrates as a teacher, scholar and leader. Since joining SU in 2004, Holland has taken on increasing leadership responsibilities. Before he was named associate dean in 2009, he directed the nationally recognized Ronald A. Peterson Law Clinic through which law students work on real cases to serve poor and marginalized populations. Widely published in the fields of child and juvenile advocacy, Holland is frequently sought for his expertise on the subjects. Former Gov. Christine Gregoire appointed Holland to the Governor’s Juvenile Justice Advisory Committee in 2005 and as chair of the committee in 2008.

CORRECTION In the winter issue of the magazine we incorrectly stated that Capt. William D. Swenson, ’01, was one of six living recipients of the Medal of Honor. We apologize for the error. Swenson is one of two Medal of Honor recipients from Seattle University as he joins Maj. Patrick Brady in receiving the military's highest honor for valor.

Ray Conner, vice chairman, president and CEO of Boeing Commercial Airplanes, was on campus for a talk as part of the Executive Speaker Series presented by the Albers School of Business and Economics. More than 400 students, faculty and alumni attended Conner’s talk on “Delivering Value to Customers in a More-for-Less World.” Conner spoke about the relationship between Boeing and SU and the many alumni who are employed there. “I can’t tell you how important Seattle University is to the Boeing Company. … You have produced some very capable leaders within the Boeing Company—leaders who embody the values and skills that we are looking for. … It is something that we built the company on. … Our people are our strength. I think this is a real reflection of the kind of education that this university provides. I can tell you that we, as the Boeing Company, are extremely proud of this relationship.”

“Eighty-four percent of the students who WHAT’S AHEAD RF: Our plan is to have some graduate pro- are engaged in grams capable of being offered in online or hybrid fashion by fall of 2014 and to higher education have about a dozen or so undergraduate courses offered this summer online. We’re right now are also planning on having our first adult completion certificate ready to go by the typically working fall, as well. And then by 2015, we hope to have a couple baccalaureate degrees ready to be offered for adult degree adults of some sort.”

10 40 40

40 70 40

COPE Director Rick Fehrenbacher is shaping the future of online education at Seattle U.

40 100

JESUIT ETHOS INTO ONLINE AND HYBRID LEARNING RF: One thing we discovered was that some of the schools didn’t take Jesuit pedagogy into consideration when developing online courses, which I think is a mistake. But we are. It’s a six-month course development process. And it isn’t just about technology or formatting your courses or your lectures for online delivery. It's about rethinking your course and how to offer it online. Anybody can take an online course anywhere; they’re all over the place. We have to be Seattle University and without our Jesuit emphasis we’re just everybody else.

30 30

in post-secondary education are your 18- to 22-year-old, on-campus students. Eighty-four percent of the students who are engaged in higher education right now are typically working adults of some sort. It's incumbent upon Seattle University to offer access to this transformative Jesuit education. COPE is quite consistent with the university's mission.

70 70

THE IMPORTANCE OF ONLINE AND HYBRID EDUCATION RF: Right now only 16 percent of students

THE THREE PRIORITIES WITH ONLINE AND HYBRID LEARNING RF: One is to work with our existing graduate programs to move them into hybrid or online delivery formats. The second is to examine some of our undergraduate courses and move those into online delivery. We’re going to do this strategically. We’re developing undergraduate Core courses for delivery in the summer session. And third, we want to institute adult degree completion programs. There are literally hundreds of thousands of people in the Seattle metropolitan area who have some college but don't have a degree. We want to find a way to allow them access to a Seattle University education.

100 100 60 100 100

100 60

It is the beginning of a new era at SU that in time will see the rollout of new courses for graduate students, undergraduates and adults who are returning to college as non-traditional students. It’s all about responding to higher ed’s changing landscape, meeting today’s students where they are—and doing it the SU way. Leading the effort is COPE’s Director Rick Fehrenbacher, who provides a status report of the push to elevate online and hybrid learning.

30 30

When you walk into the new space for Seattle University’s Continuing, Online and Professional Education (COPE) on campus, you're immediately struck with a feeling that you are staring right into the future.

COURSE TITLE | Chemistry, Food and Nutrition

“This is a good bonding experience for us,” he says, as his lab team extracts oil from potato chips. In this Core class, there are quizzes but no final exam. Instead, two or three students team up to research an issue and craft a white paper on the subject matter. They present these at the end of the quarter on topics that include the effects of protein and amino acid supplements on athletic performance, nutrition and the brain, the role of gluten in the diet, caffeine addiction, nutrition vs. calorie count, foods and moods and the modern-day controversy about genetically modified organisms.

watch how the browning of coffee beans impacts their taste. By this stage, students have the confidence to ask the master roaster smart questions about what’s done to coax the flavor, says Jackels. In lab experiments, they burn a peanut to find out it’s mostly oil. At five different “potato chip stations” in the lab, teams weigh and mash a single potato chip with a mortar and pestle, then use petroleum ether to determine how much fat it contains. Students explore the properties of triglycerides, that group of organic compounds that includes fats and oils. Then they look into which fats are saturated and unsaturated, why trans fats are worse than saturated fats and talk about heart disease and healthy oils. Freshman Taelor Fair says she was intrigued with a science class related to food. David Ho, also a freshman, equally appreciates the subject matter. “To learn about this makes it sound like I’m smart,” he says. Sophomore Marc Delgado says he’s had an interest in food science for some time.

30 30

Becoming a better-informed consumer about issues related to food and nutrition is the focus of Chemistry, Food and Nutrition, taught by Professor Sue Jackels in the College of Science and Engineering. The course calls for understanding just enough about chemistry and science, says Jackels, without being too overwhelming. Jackels concedes she briefly focused on the chemistry of cooking until she realized freshmen weren’t especially enthused about food preparation. That’s when she tinkered with her course topics so they’d appeal more to students who don’t spend much time in the kitchen. Students learn about the basic components of food—proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals, water and micronutrients. They also develop an understanding of calories, food labels, properties of foods and the chemistry of cooking. The amazing part? The revelations, for sure. Students compare fruit juices with sodas and are surprised to learn there’s about the same amount of sugar in both. A couple of months into the course, students take a field trip to Stumptown Coffee Roasters near campus where they

70 70

To someone who isn’t a science major, studying the fundamentals of chemistry might sound like a formidable task that involves more than a passing acquaintance with the periodic table of elements. That may have been the case way back when, but today’s Core makes this natural science a lot more, well, palatable.

A love of math led Agnieszka Miguel into a career in electrical and computer engineering. As a child growing up in Poland, Miguel, who is associate professor and chair of electrical and computer engineering in the College of Science and Engineering, had a proclivity toward mathematics, so much so that it was her intended focus when it came time to pursue her higher education aspirations. Once at college, Miguel says she realized that math “was not practical enough.” “I loved solving problems but wanted these problems to have real life application,” she says. “I looked around and selected electrical and computer engineering, which tends to be the most mathematically oriented engineering major.” Following graduation with a PhD in electrical engineering from the University of Washington, Miguel worked as a consultant. It wasn’t long before she realized this wasn’t the type of work she wanted to do as academia was calling her. One day she was asked to fill in for a faculty member at the UW and teach a class. She was hooked and a teaching career was launched.

Edward O’Brien, ’53, legendary basketball and baseball player for Seattle University before becoming the Athletic Director, passed away Feb. 21, 2014. He was 83. Ed’s impact on Seattle University goes beyond his impressive resume as an athlete and athletics leader. Along with his twin brother Johnny, Ed came to Seattle University from South Amboy, N.J., after meeting then-head basketball and baseball coach Al Brightman at a semi-pro baseball tournament in Wichita, Kansas in 1949. From 1950 to 1953, Ed averaged 13 points per game, helping the Seattle U basketball team to a 90-17 record (.841) and trips to the 1951 National Catholic Tournament, the 1952 National Invitational Tournament and the 1953 NCAA Tournament. Ed was a threat not only on the court but also in the ball field. From 1950 to 1952 he played on the university baseball team, hitting .431 with nine home runs during the 1952 season. After the basketball team was eliminated from the NCAA Tournament, a year later, he immediately headed to spring training for the Pittsburgh Pirates. He played for the Pirates from 1953 to 1958. But Seattle University was never far from Ed’s mind. During the 1955–56 basketball season he spent his baseball offseason back at SU to coach the freshman team. In 1958, he returned to his alma mater full time as Athletic Director, a position he held for 20+ years, until 1980. For 14 years he served as head baseball coach, compiling a record of 276–135 (.672).

or Medal of Honor recipient Capt. William D. Swenson, receiving the nation’s highest military award for valor provides opportunities to bring awareness to issues impacting veterans today. It is a cause important to Swenson, a 2001 political science graduate who served nine years in the U.S. Army. Recently he returned to active duty at Joint Base Lewis-McChord. When Swenson received the Medal of Honor at the White House last October, he spoke openly about what the award means to him. “This award is earned with a team of our finest Marines, Army, Air Force, Navy and Afghan partners standing side by side. Now that team includes Gold Star families who lost their fathers, sons and husbands that day. This medal represents them, it represents us.” In presenting Swenson with the medal, President Barack Obama said, “Americans like Will remind us of what our country can be at its best—a nation of citizens who look out for one another, who meet our obligations to one another, not just when it’s easy but also when it’s hard. Will, you’re an example to everyone in this city and to our whole country of the professionalism and patriotism that we should strive for.” Swenson has received many commendations and top awards for his military service including the Bronze Star and Purple Heart. Last year, he was inducted into the Pentagon Hall of Fame. And adding to his decorated military career is a personal honor: he is the 2014 Alumnus of the Year, recognized by the Seattle University Alumni Association and Alumni Board of Governors. To be named Alumnus of the Year by his alma mater is something that Swenson is humbled by. He says he is appreciative of the honor and for his Jesuit education, which he observed is unique in providing a full spectrum of knowledge with its focus on educating the whole person. An embedded adviser to the Afghan National Border police, Swenson was on patrol with American and Afghan troops in 2009 when they were ambushed and pinned down for six hours by more than 60 well-armed Taliban forces. Ganjgal became one of the bloodiest battles in the war. Putting himself at great risk, Swenson rescued his sergeant and several Afghans and retrieved the bodies of four service members. “Swenson’s strength of character was undeniable. Even after the battle, Will was not afraid to point out deficiencies in the operation that caused difficulties in obtaining the appropriate and timely support necessary. He recognized the importance of assessing performance and had the character to stick to his convictions,” said Army Chief of Staff Gen. Ray Odierno. Having studied political science in the College of Arts and Sciences, Swenson considered pursuing a job in the State Department. But while in the Balkans studying language, he was so impressed by the contributions of the American military there that he enrolled in the College Option Officer Candidate School. In 2002, he began training at Fort Benning, Ga. In February, the Washington State Senate recognized Capt. Swenson for his service and bravery in battle. He touched on the platform afforded to him because of the Medal of Honor. “I get to tell a story about my service members, my team and in the future I get to continue their legacy,” Swenson said, in addressing the Senate, as reported by KOMO News. “And I get to bring attention to sometimes, unfortunately, undervalued service that our service members provide.” Referring to his own service, Swenson says, “Every step I took, I had someone supporting me. Leadership is all about establishing trust and making people want to follow you.”

Khaled Jaraysa is a picture of perseverance and hope. At age 13, he lost his arm in a machinery accident. Three years later, his father died. Rather than become embittered, he is committed to rebuilding the lives of children shattered by war. While a student at SU, Jaraysa founded the Children of Peace Foundation in 2007 to support the Holy Family Care Center where he received care. Funds raised help to maintain and expand Holy Family Services, the only such program in the Bethlehem area. Through his foundation, the children of Palestine not only receive specialized therapeutic care but also a reason to hope for a better tomorrow.

Here’s the sports reporter’s take—and predictions—on the upcoming seasons for the Hawks, the Mariners and the city’s favorite soccer club. SEATTLE MARINERS With a new coach and the addition of hitter Robinson Cano, Boyle thinks the team made some positive changes in the offseason that may make them a .500 team. And while “a lot would have to go right for them to be playoff contenders,” says Boyle, the off-season alterations may be enough to win back some fans. SEATTLE SOUNDERS FC Seattle’s popular soccer team underwent a slew of changes as well, with some veteran players departing and new faces taking center stage. In light of the comings and goings, and the disappointing end to last season, Boyle says it will be “interesting” to see how the season plays out and if the fandom will wane should the team sputter. SEATTLE SEAHAWKS The team, Boyle says, should remain largely intact as the championship team of 2013. But some changes have happened and will continue to in this offseason. While he won’t say that the Seahawks will be back to the Super Bowl next season, he speaks with confidence that this team is built for success for years to come—and doesn’t rule out a return trip. “They are going to be good for a long time.”

Boyle says. The energy of New York City was palpable and Boyle says he was blown away by the number of Seahawks fans in town for the game, with Times Square and other parts of Manhattan and New Jersey awash in 12th Man pride. So what about a return to the Super Bowl for the Hawks? And will the Mariners win more games than last year?

As a sports reporter John Boyle, who has logged more than a decade in the profession, has covered countless games, athletes and “personalities” that define mainstream professional sports. But two events, both in recent history, rank as the top stories in Boyle’s book: the thrilling U.S. vs. Canada hockey game for the Gold Medal at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver and the 2013 NFC West Championship Game at Century Link, where the Seahawks beat the San Francisco 49ers in the final seconds of the game to secure a spot to the Super Bowl. As an economics major at SU, Boyle, ’02, originally thought he’d do something in the business world. But he never got to the point of crunching numbers or analyzing stats—well, except for game stats—as he got his first writing gig upon graduation. In 2002, he was hired as a part-time news assistant on the sports desk at the Seattle Times. That role evolved to include covering and reporting on games. After five years at the Times he left for the The Herald in Everett, where he has been since 2007. Boyle covers the main Seattle sports teams—Seahawks, Mariners, Sounders FC—for the daily. This is a “dream job,” says Boyle, who found a profession where he can marry his love of writing and passion for sports. “Part of what I like about sports writing is how different it is week to week. I love what I am doing,” he says. “It’s a lot of work and a lot of fun. …There’s still enjoyment for me in finding a great story to tell or a different angle to a story.” A stint on The Spectator his senior year at SU and an English writing class helped crystallize his future as a writer—and a shift from economics. (There was a fleeting idea of going to law school following an internship at the King County Prosecutor’s Office.) “I did love writing for The Spectator,” says Boyle. “I decided I wanted to see if I could make something out of it.” When he realized he had talent writing, Boyle wanted to tap into a career where he could make a living writing about something that interested him. It just so happens that he has always been involved in sports, both as a participant and an observer. At SU, he was a member of the golf and ski teams. As a sports writer and columnist, the past several months have been full of highlights, mostly tied to the Seahawks tremendous run, capped with Boyle’s first trip covering a Super Bowl. Before the season began—actually going back to the training camps last summer—Boyle predicted the Seahawks would make it to the big game. He even predicted they would go head to head with Denver and win. That 43-8 blowout? Well, like most of the country, he didn’t see that one coming. The build up to the Super Bowl meant a whirlwind week of interviews and traveling to and from the media hub—aka “media row”—and the team hotel for player insights, sound bites from the coaches and analysis leading up to the game,

weeks and months in advance. The success of Quadstock is due in part to its free-flowing festival-vibe that is structured but doesn’t follow a rigid format, which was intentional, says Boyle. “The format for Quadstock has worked because it’s always been about music and friendship and giving back,” he says. “It’s good, clean fun.” Quadstock has attracted upcoming and established local and national talent with past performances from The Thermals, Dan Deacon, Del the Funky Homosapien, Talib Kweli, Ok GO, Blue Scholars and pre-Grammy winner Macklemore, to name a few. Boyle puts to rest a longrunning myth that Nirvana played the festival. While a call was indeed put into the band’s people, Boyle says they had to decline the offer as they were recording in Los Angeles at the time. It also helped that Boyle, Thomas and the students behind bringing Quadstock to life had the support from the top in then-President William Sullivan, S.J. Says Boyle, “Father Sullivan wanted the Quadrangle to be a centerpiece of student life. … He was always behind us.” Quadstock is still important to Boyle, who works in mobile products and software development for Dell, and Thomas, a public relations manager at Providence Centralia Hospital. Both plan to attend this year’s Quadstock and hope to reunite with other alumni, which they’ve reconnected with through a Facebook page set up for festival alums.

hen Chris Thomas, ’91, and John Boyle, ’93, wanted to do something to continue the celebration around the unveiling of the Quadrangle and Tsutakawa Fountain—formally dedicated in fall 1989—little did they know they would start a tradition at Seattle University that lives on. The pair, who were active in Student Activities, had an idea for a music festival in the Quad for the following spring, a way to encourage students to view this new centerpiece of campus as their space. What started with a seed of an idea between two friends soon gained a swell of support from members of the activities committee and the SU administration. And in spring 1990, Quadstock was born. Through the power of music—and the fun, festival-like atmosphere that includes games, a dunk tank, arts & crafts and more—community formed, strangers became friends and new traditions were born. Originally, Quadstock—the name a mashup of location and a nod to the seminal outdoor music festival Woodstock—spanned three days and included Battle of the Bands. “We knew a lot of people who played in bands at SU and came up with the idea to do a Battle of the Bands with the winner getting to play on the main stage at Quadstock,” says Thomas. After the first year, which was by all accounts a success, the guys realized that three days was too much. But what they put together proved to be a successful template as Quadstock has continued on, with 2014 marking the 25th year of the event. Quadstock has become a springtime staple near the close of the academic year, something that is circled on the calendar

We are investing more deeply in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) and health sciences in order to respond to a growing societal demand in those fields, while continuing to create new online programs that align with the needs of today’s prospective students, boosting scholarship assistance and bolstering efforts to prepare students for meaningful careers and lives.

The Jesuit imperative is to question and re-imagine, to push, span and, when necessary, break down boundaries. We feed off of the restless energy of the city that we are all privileged to call home. As our mission and location are interwoven, our impact—and the impact of you as alumni of Seattle University—reverberates throughout and beyond the region.

We hosted the first regional pregame rally with more than 30 Phoenix-area alumni when we played Grand Canyon State. While we focus on new programming, we honor our past by reigniting favorite traditions. Last fall we celebrated the first annual Legacy Reception and Pinning Ceremony, which honor Legacy families. Homecoming returned in March with a weekend full of events that invited the entire Seattle U community to share their school pride. And earlier this month, we celebrated reunions with the classes of 1964 and 2004 and Sullivan Scholars. Over my three years I’ve seen so much growth and I know that this is just the beginning.

Located in the St. Vincent de Paul Kent Thrift Store, Centro Rendu has three case management offices, a staffed childcare room for children of adult participants and a classroom with 15 state-of-the-art laptop computers purchased with funds from a major private donor. Classes range from eight to 25 students and a variety of immigration counseling and parenting classes are also available. “Education is a way out of poverty,” says Roach, who completed her master’s in pastoral studies at Seattle University in 2007. Prior to enrolling in Centro Rendu, participants complete a detailed assessment, helping each family to determine the barriers they face as well as strengths educationally, behaviorally and as a

communities by creating programs that are more visible and accessible. The Hispanic community, Delmore explains, is as vulnerable as anybody and they know St. Vincent de Paul and the resources it provides. Serving this population led to the creation of Centro Rendu, a program built to serve and educate the Latino community in South King County. Enter Mirya Roach—a Puerto Ricanborn U.S. citizen and the force behind the organization’s pilot program in Kent. Centro Rendu, named after Blessed Rosalie Rendu—a French Catholic Sister who served the poor during the French Revolution—offers basic literacy classes in both English and Spanish, computer training, case management and immigration counseling. And while outreach only started last year classes are

With a large collective of volunteers, St. Vincent de Paul does more than 12,000 home visits each year. “To me, that’s the center of our work,” says Executive Director Delmore. Even more, SVdP manages a food bank, thrift store and help line center. And last year the organization recycled more than two million pounds of household products. “St. Vincent de Paul is an organization that the poor know and trust,” Delmore says. Prior to joining the organization in 2011, Delmore spent 31 years working within the courts system, managing at every level. Now in his third year with St. Vincent de Paul Delmore, who grew up in Seattle and graduated from Seattle University with a master’s in rehabilitation, is eager to expand the organization’s outreach to additional

It’s the in-home visits, listening to individual heartbreak and figuring out what people need, explains Ned Delmore, ’81, that sets St. Vincent de Paul apart from other charitable organizations. The nonprofit, which serves struggling individuals and families, works to prevent evictions, keep the power and heat turned on and provide connections to resources for those with the greatest need.

The duo is planning to work with Kent Koth, director of the Seattle University Youth Initiative. "Ned and Mirya are doing great work with St. Vincent de Paul and Centro Rendu. We are hopeful that we will be able to develop a collaboration between SUYI and St. Vincent de Paul to assist families in our local neighborhood," says Koth. “The opportunity to work alongside a committed alumus like Ned has been nothing short of miraculous,” says Roach. “There is a shared vision that is born of a common foundation even though we graduated nearly 30 years apart.”

the works to expand Centro Rendu throughout their five thrift store locations. While a lot of folks sit in their ivory towers, Delmore and Roach are in the trenches, knocking on leaders’ doors and asking for support. “My job at Centro Rendu is to ask how are you serving the Latino community?” says Roach. “I’m always challenging. I want to know how people access services and I want to know exactly what I’m referring people to.” Earlier this year, they partnered with the Kent School District to bridge the gap between kids and parents in a learning environment. Now, parents who’ve never read are learning to read, working in their language of origin to develop basic skills, which allows them to be more effective later in their ESL classes.

family. This gives Roach the ability to spend as much oneon-one time with the students as possible. “She’s strong, dynamic and smart and she has the temperament and the sprit to make this thing go,” says Delmore of colleague Roach. Roach, who began her work with St. Vincent de Paul as a volunteer before Delmore brought her on full-time, says her Hispanic roots allow her to connect with the population. When students enroll in Centro Rendu they receive a culturally sensitive approach. “It’s not just about services; we’re building a community,” she says. Roach says Seattle University plays a pivotal role in her commitment to service. “I was awakened to the reality that my place of ‘privilege’ in this world was my ability to study and get an education,” she says. “I am grateful to the donors who gave to the School of Theology and Ministry. Through their generous support, I was able to pursue my master’s and thanks to that I am now able to effect many lives,” says Roach, who responded to an invitation by the Northwest Progress in 2003 for Spanish speakers to apply for a program partially funded by the Archdiocese of Seattle in conjunction with Seattle University. In the last six months, more than 350 individuals have been referred out to other agencies or to a helpline that is operated as part of the program. Delmore and Roach say plans are in

general scholarship fund. I was so happy to see the widespread support.” Canlas, too, singled out Pedersen and Johnson, saying “Without (their) help, our bill would not have progressed through the legislative system.” It was Pedersen who introduced the bill in the House of Representatives before he was chosen to replace Sen. Ed Murray in the state’s 43rd District after Murray was elected Seattle mayor. Speaking on the Senate floor before a vote was taken on the bill, Pedersen said, “The 43rd District is very proud to be the home of Seattle University.” Board of Governor members Joe Hueffed, John Ruffo and Joslyn Donlin were responsible for collecting well over half of the initial petition signatures. Alumni Relations also extends special thanks to former State Sen. Dino Rossi, ’82, who helped in navigating the system; and Manpreet Kaur, ’09; Maria Alvarez, ’14, and Lance Tormey, ’87.

The special plates will be available Jan. 1, 2015, for $40 for the first year and $12 to renew each year after. More than 70 percent of the sales price will be returned to the university to support student scholarships. “Our alumni want to play an active role in furthering the mission of the university,” says Vosper. “The Seattle U license plate provides a way for alumni to show their Seattle U pride and participate in a much-needed way to raise money for scholarships.” Vosper praised Canlas, the Alumni Board of Governors, Sen. Jamie Pedersen (D)—who along with Rep. Norm Johnson (R) were primary sponsors of the bill— and others for bringing the effort to a successful completion. “So many people helped to make this license plate possible,” Canlas says. “The alumni board and office invested countless hours building up the case for our plate that will raise funds for the

It’s a go. The Seattle University license plate will soon be making an appearance on the highways and byways throughout the region. Gov. Jay Inslee gave the green light to the Seattle U plates when he signed House Bill No. 2100 into law in March. “I’ve been a fan of SU since way back,” the governor said in signing the bill. “It's a great university. Go Redhawks!” The signing culminated a two-year effort. Work began on the initiative in fall 2012, when 4,300 signatures, more than what's required, were collected for the petition. But the bill never made it out of the House Transportation Committee. There was no gridlock this time around. And much of the credit goes to Alumni Board of Governors President Chris Canlas, ’01, who worked tirelessly on the bill. He and Assistant Vice President for Alumni Relations Susan Vosper logged countless hours, driving between Seattle and Olympia to advance the cause. The Alumni Relations team thanks the faculty, staff, alumni and legislators who were instrumental in getting the bill passed (visit www.seattleu.edu/magazine/ for a list of the aforementioned who are credited with making the Seattle U license plate happen.)

Seattle University’s 2nd Annual Homecoming was a winning tradition from start to finish. The weekend started with a parade on campus— led by President Sundborg—a good way to kick off the swell of spirit that filled KeyArena at Seattle Center for men’s basketball, which defeated Idaho that Saturday night. During halftime, the Homecoming Court was honored and the Royals crowned. Homecoming came to a close with an Alumni Mass on Sunday morning and the Athletic Hall of Fame Luncheon that afternoon.

an expected outcome of leading with humility so we think a leader with humility would, as Seattle U’s mission statement puts it, empower leaders for a more just and humane world.” The authors address the challenges of this type of leadership, but also the rewards. The first step to tapping this type of leader from within, say the authors, is to understand yourself, your strengths and weaknesses, relationships with others and perspective. “Pursuing a path to leadership with more humility will take reflection, practice and patience, especially patience with yourself. We suggest leaders seek progress, not perfection, when striving to lead with humility,” Marrone says. Leading with Humility is recommended reading for current and aspiring leaders looking for a new model that may just inspire others to become leaders one day. The book is available at Amazon.com, Routledge.com and the Campus Bookstore.

research for the book. Ferraro joined in after they presented on the topic at an Industrial and Organizational Psychology Conference. “From the outset, the fact that Seattle U is a Jesuit institution surely also influenced us in some way to study more ethical aspects of leadership,” says Nielsen. With Leading with Humility the approach was to offer a unique perspective on the idea of leadership. Being a humble leader may be easier today than one might initially think because of increasingly diverse workplaces and changing organizational structures. “In today’s organizations, many espouse that they want leaders who are approachable, demonstrate care and can ‘walk with their followers,’” says Marrone. “Organizations seem to be less expectant that leaders will ‘know it all’ or dictate what one must do in all situations.” Adds Nielsen, “Empowerment is

Inspired by the Jesuit mission of Seattle University and more than a curious interest in how leaders can lead with humility, Rob Nielsen, ’06, Jennifer Marrone and Holly Ferraro set out to further the research on more ethical aspects of leadership in Leading with Humility. Effective leadership can be humble leadership, so asserts Albers alum Nielsen and Albers Associate Professors Marrone and Ferraro in their debut book, which aims to create a new model for empowering leaders to serve with respect and humility. The trio collaborated on Leading with Humility after Nielsen, while a student in Marrone’s class, questioned why humility was not mentioned anywhere in the course text. Finding his questions compelling, Marrone asked if he would write a literature review, a text written by someone examining the current knowledge and research on a particular topic, on leader humility. This was their first collaboration and the start of the

Assistant Professor of Philosophy Therese S. Cory’s Aquinas on Self-Knowledge examines how medieval Latin and Islamic thinkers addressed the concept of “self” and “self-knowledge” and in turn dispel the notion that these were mainly topics of interest in the modern day. Says Cory, “The concept of self-knowledge was very much a topic of interest for medieval Latin and Islamic thinkers, long before the 16th century when Descartes wrote, ‘I think, therefore I am.’”

Mixed Blessings: A Guide to Multicultural and Multiethnic Relationships is co-authored by Harriet Cannon, MC, LMFT, LMHC and Rhoda Berlin. Both are marriage and family therapists with more than 50 years of experience specializing in multicultural relationships, which is at the heart of Mixed Blessings. According to the authors, “Mixed Blessings explores the multicultural experience and gives practical guidance on what this can mean and how it can impact people’s lives and relationships in subtle and often unnoticed ways.” It’s a topic close to alumna Cannon, who in addition to her clinical practice consults on culture shock and international transitions for individuals and corporations.

for what was to come. It wasn’t long before Cashman, who switched his major from creative writing to film studies, became part of a media production team. Undergraduate Admissions Counselor Zach Gerdes, ’11, oversees the operation and Lars Andersen, ’14, another film studies major, is cameraman. “After a colleague showed me some of his film work,” says Gerdes, “I knew we had to embrace his potential as a budding filmmaker and comic genius.” It takes about a week for a rough cut and typically three weeks from filming to final cut for a new Robert Report episode. Among other topics, the videos have tackled food on campus (with a cameo

comedy as his creative wonderland. Thanks to his roommate Jacob Swanson, ’15, Cashman spotted a quirky Old Milwaukee beer commercial featuring film star and comedian Will Ferrell that inspired him to make videos about his SU experience. Cashman’s earliest campus videos— before he adopted the Redhawk Rob persona—were acronyms full of his exuberant earnestness. In one video he spelled out S-E-A-T-T-L-E U-N-I-V-E-R-SI-T-Y, coming up with a positive word for each letter. Three years ago, he had a parttime job in the Admissions Office as a Student Telephone Admissions Representative (STAR), foreshadowing

If you don’t know who Redhawk Rob is, just Google him. You’re about to discover one of Seattle University’s most interesting characters, a campus comic whose offbeat videos continue to attract new devotees, from prospective students to members of the executive leadership. Redhawk Rob and his “Robert Report” are from the mind of James Cashman, ’15. It was the winter of Cashman’s freshman year and he wanted an outlet to express his high-spirited, genuine enthusiasm for his decision to come to SU. Cashman’s knack for improvisation dates back to his high school days at Bellarmine College Prep in San Jose, Calif. Even then, he saw improvisational

The sleeves on his red plaid sport coat are short and the fit is noticeably long, but the $7 Value Village find is just what James Cashman needed to establish his eccentric video persona as Redhawk Rob. The coat is now his uniform—along with his red SU neckties. “I’ve never had it dry cleaned,” he says with a quick sniff and a nod. “It’s all me.”

So what does the future hold for Redhawk Rob? “I’ve had incredible opportunities at this school, in Admissions, with Redhawk Rob and all over this campus,” says Cashman. “I’d like to become a filmmaker, but I realize it doesn’t come with a snap of the fingers. I’d love to work for ‘Second City’ in Chicago.”

for another. They did a spoof on a Brad Pitt cologne ad for yet another. “The college admissions field is saturated with cheesy videos,” Gerdes says. “‘Redhawk Rob’ embraces the cheesy with a refreshing, zesty flare of irony and humor; and James Cashman is nothing if not refreshing and zesty. We are lucky to have him.”
