William Trueheart Scholarship Lasting Memory Phil King ’00 and Michael Provencher ’00 wanted their beloved information technology professor, William Trueheart, to be remembered long after his retirement in May 2000. So they created a university scholarship in the associate professor’s name.

“Professor Trueheart’s commitment to developing a student’s potential, his passion for teaching and his compassion for his students are just part of his legacy.” King said.

For Trueheart, it was more than an honor; it was an opportunity to help students after he left the classroom.

After retiring from the U.S. Army in 1980, Trueheart came to SNHU to teach information technology. For the next 20 years he worked to guide and educate the many young men and women who passed though his classroom. Though no longer teaching, he will be able to continue helping students by easing their financial burden through this scholarship.

“

Professor Trueheart’s commitment to developing

a student’s potential, his passion for teaching and his compassion for his students are just part of his legacy.

”

– Phil King ’00

“I’d hate for a student to be held back for financial reasons,” he says. “Knowing that this scholarship will help to give a student a chance in life to go somewhere really means a lot.”

Members of the Trueheart family have offered to match each dollar donated, up to $2,500. Once fully endowed, the William Trueheart Scholarship will provide a legacy to his teaching excellence and provide support for IT majors.

Awards will be based on academic achievement, involvement in university life and financial need.

To support the William Trueheart Scholarship or learn more about other giving opportunities, please contact the Office of Institutional Advancement at 603.645.9688 or visit snhu.edu online.

Director Departs

Dear friends, I am not sure there is a more idyllic place than a New England university campus in the early fall. Outside my window I can see the women’s soccer team practicing, two members of the freshman class (our largest ever) lugging armfuls of books toward Newcastle Hall and one of our faculty members in earnest conversation with a student as they walk to class. The days remain sunny and warm, at least for a bit longer.

Unlike so many campuses, ours is not reawakening to a new academic year after a lazy, quiet summer. Southern New Hampshire University is a 12-month hub of activity.

Our new class of M.F.A. students was here for a highly successful residency with acclaimed authors Richard Rhodes and Sy Montgomery. International community economic development students came from around the country and the globe to spend six weeks in class here in Manchester.

This issue features one of them – Alicia Fitzpatrick, who is doing inspirational work with Zuni pupils on the reservation where she teaches.

In this issue of The Extra Mile, you may also read about our basketball teams’ and coaches’ tour of China. Hospitality students in our BASHA program were here studying and have now fanned out around the country for internships at some of the finest hotels. Many of those internships were made possible by SNHU alumni.

The role of alumni is the subject of our cover story. This is a place that has transformed lives for 75 years. It has the biggest business school in the state. With a federal grant it, created a groundbreaking three-year honors business program that saves students 25 percent on tuition (find me even one other program that creates that kind of

savings). Our CED program is considered the best in the field. Our aforementioned M.F.A. program features the very best writers in America. We do all of this and still we haven’t lost our commitment to students who might be the first in their families to go to college, who might be juggling family and work and education, who might be serving in Iraq and taking classes online. I could go on and on.

I love to see alumni put SNHU stickers on their cars, mount their SNHU diplomas on their office walls, brag to their neighbors and co-workers and celebrate the school where they earned their education.

A final word about two of those alumni: After 10 years of guiding our board of trustees, Chairman Rick Courtemanche ’73 is handing the baton to Mickey Greene ’72. Rick will continue as a member of the board. I have appreciated his wise counsel and personal support and I am grateful that he remains part of our leadership team even as I look forward to working with Mickey. The two exemplify extraordinary dedication and ongoing engagement.

Best wishes!

By Sarah Littlefield, student Jane Torrey spent decades creating a comfortable setting for student learning.

Academic adviser Burton Reynolds found her one evening elbow-deep in trash, preparing classrooms for students after a day of vendor events.

“Jane is not embarrassed or afraid to roll up her sleeves and dig right in,” he said.

After serving 20 years as director of the university’s Seacoast Center (formerly the Portsmouth Center), Torrey retired in August.

“SNHU works hard to create a community which is nurturing, humane and focused on individuals. Few people exemplify that ethos better than Jane Torrey,” SNHU President Paul LeBlanc said. “Jane has been a passionate advocate for her students and the inspirational spirit of the Seacoast Center: one part cheerleader, one part mother to all and one part taskmaster.”

to 500 students and 25 to 30 faculty members per term, as well as a staff of five. She also managed the center’s budget; coordinated course offerings and schedules; recruited, hired, assigned, trained and evaluated adjunct faculty members; developed community and corporate relationships; and ensured academic integrity.

With five other colleges operating within a five-mile radius of the Seacoast Center, competition for students is tough. Torrey responded by emphasizing exceptional service and community involvement.

“You can tell when you walk into Jane’s organization, there’s a difference – the way the people, the administrative staff, treat you,” Reynolds said.

Torrey had the utmost respect and admiration for her students and enjoyed being their cheerleader.

“

Graduate student Steve Cook, an information technology operations manager at Liberty Mutual who has multiple SNHU degrees, said Torrey made him feel all his work was worthwhile.

“She’s very sweet and well respected,” he said. “A lot of people are going to miss her.”

Torrey inspired loyalty, respect and laughter, said Lauren Andresen, former associate director at the Seacoast Center.

“It was exciting and enlightening to work with her,” she said. “Much of what I learned from Jane I will use the remainder of my professional life.”

As retirement neared, Torrey likened her feelings to what students experience as they approach graduation.

“How do you reinvent yourself after you’ve been one thing for so long? I guess that’s my next challenge,” Torrey said.

“For one thing, I’m going to have fun.”

University Happenings

Teams on Tour The university’s basketball teams took on China over the summer.

During the 11-day exhibition tour, members of the men’s and women’s teams competed against Chinese teams, held youth basketball clinics and did a lot of sightseeing in Shanghai and Beijing.

“We have a major initiative to establish a presence in China – we recruit there and we hope to bring programs to the country. The basketball teams’ tour was a way of carrying the SNHU banner and of nurturing our relationships with our Chinese university partners, and was a way of building goodwill,” said President Paul LeBlanc. “At the same time, it provided our students and coaches an extraordinary learning opportunity.”

LeBlanc has visited China in recent years to develop SNHU’s relationship with Chinese universities and was amazed at the popularity of basketball there.

The traveling party consisted of the teams, coaching staffs and Athletic Department personnel, as well as family members and friends. SNHU trustee Martha Shen-Urquidez, who is based in Beijing and Shanghai, made all of the 6 | The Extra Mile | Fall 2007

In Her Words

By Samantha Allen Being part of the SNHU women’s basketball team while touring through China was amazing. It was an incredible experience that I will never forget!

“How can you do that?” Pinkos said, laughing. “We all bought a suitcase coming back.”

arrangements, set up the games and oversaw the visit.

Beijing Sports University, China’s premier athletic training facility, hosted the group.

It was the first overseas trip for the women’s basketball program, and the team went prepared. Players presented “fun facts” about China before practices.

The coaching staff found a Chinese language pronunciation Web site, and the group practiced basic phrases. Coach Karen Pinkos even arranged for a local restaurant to prepare an authentic Chinese dinner for the players, which they ate using chopsticks.

There was one hardship – travelers were allowed only one carry-on bag each for the 11-day trip.

While in China, the teams hit the courts to take on Chinese university teams; the women’s team also faced a professional team.

“It was very different than the style we’re used to,” Pinkos said. “It was very physical – much faster.”

Both teams had victories. The women lost to the pros, but it was a learning experience, sophomore Andrea Lozeau said.

“They were incredible,” she said. “It will help us because now we’ll be more physical than the teams around here.”

The teams did a lot of sightseeing, too – they went to the Summer Palace, Tiananmen Square, future Olympic sites in Beijing and the Great Wall.

“You can’t really have a grip on how

incredible the Great Wall is until you’ve seen it and climbed it,” Lozeau said.

Coach Stan Spirou was stunned by the extensive development in the two cities.

“Since China is going to be a major player in the world politically, economically and, I think, athletically, it was good to see it evolving from the ground up,” he said.

The trip was good for international relations, LeBlanc said.

“With China we have a growing partnership and rivalry,” he said. “In that context, it is important for the Chinese to meet and interact with Americans, to understand us better – as we must understand them – and to meet individuals and realize that for all of our

differences, we share a wide range of common goals and desires.”

Contending with language and cultural differences brought the teams closer together, Pinkos and Spirou said.

“A trip like this is twofold,” said Spirou, who has taken his teams to Greece in the past. “Basketball-wise, it gives us a chance to come together and create some team unity. More importantly, the kids got the chance to experience the cultures of the different country and hopefully brought back memories that will last a lifetime.”

“It was good for them to step out of their boxes, out of their comfort zones,” Pinkos said. “They’ll be talking about this trip forever.”

When we arrived in Beijing, none of us really had any idea what to expect – small things like no toilet paper, bathroom situations, food and manners seemed to hit us hard – but we got used to the lifestyle very quickly and soon it became second nature. The Chinese culture surprised all of us, but the experience of being there has made me realize how lucky I am to live in the U.S. and that I might never be able to return to China in my life.

So I tried a little bit of everything – jellyfish, eel, seaweed – “weird” food that I’m sure I will never want to know what it actually was – and you know what: I’m still alive! Trying new things and going to new places never hurt anyone.

One of my favorite experiences in China was climbing the Great Wall. Words cannot even begin to describe its beautiful and majestic qualities. It seemed to go on and on forever – and I bet if we had preseason on that wall, there would not be a team in the Northeast-10 that would be as strong or fast! I remember a certain point on the wall where it was nearly vertical for climbing; I was on all fours attempting to scale it.

There is amazing architecture in China. Shanghai had some of the most amazing buildings (and lights) that I have ever seen. Absolutely stunning!

The China experience will be one that I will never forget. Fifty years from now I’ll be telling my grandchildren about playing basketball in China.

Makeup Master

By Patricia Garrity

Kriss Soterion ’87 knows how to put your best face forward.

Soterion is a master makeup artist. Pundits raved after she gave presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton a pre-debate makeover last summer. She’s powdered a number of highprofile faces, including politicians Pat Buchanan, Jimmy Carter and former President Bill Clinton, and done makeup work for the networks, the Discovery Channel, CNN and Food Network. She operates a salon in Manchester, N.H., and has created her own product line, Kriss Cosmetics.

Who is the most interesting person to whom you have applied makeup?

Soterion: It was actually one of the most important moments I ever did makeup. It was three days after the 9/11 attack.

I was working for NBC Nightly News, applying makeup to Tom Brokaw but also to former President (George) Bush Sr. President Bush Sr. was making the first transcontinental flight from Texas to Logan Airport to let the American people know that it was safe to fly commercial airlines again … there were SWAT teams everywhere and I had to get special clearance. I realized that in that moment of time I was probably in one of the most dangerous places in the country doing makeup.

Have Brush, Will Travel School of Business alumna Kriss Soterion ’87 has helped a lot of people look their best.

“

My biggest challenge is overcoming the stigma that being in the beauty industry is about vanity … but it’s remembering some of the powerful moments in history that I’ve shared in as a result of being a makeup artist that corrects my vision.

But the one that fills me with the most energy would have to be Bono from U2. I did his makeup at the Democratic convention in Boston. I was working with CNN and he was on “The Larry King Show.” That moment really was a zinger because he dropped his glasses down and he stared so deep in my eyes before I did his makeup. It’s almost like I received something from him that day. I’m not really sure what it was, but I think it might have been a blessing of some sort.

”

they can act as if they do and they can step up to the plate and go and work that job that they have to work to keep their insurance. It’s times like that that I realize that this has nothing to do with vanity. But that is a huge challenge and the other, not so much today because I have my priorities in order, but for a long time it was a long lesson to learn balance between work and family and self-care.

Soterion: I’m chuckling because I think it’s really funny.

I look at myself as somebody who provides a service to celebrities. Doing Hillary Clinton’s makeup has definitely put me on the map in a capacity that is greater than I have been in the past, but I still get up and do the same day. It wasn’t like a one-hit wonder makeover on Hillary Clinton. This is something that I have been doing since ’91.

What keeps you going when times get tough?

Soterion: Now I get that people that are successful have their priorities in order and they have a strong commitment to those priorities. For me it’s self-care and my prayer life … I have a wonderful husband of 19 years and three amazing boys, and when I’m making sure that the home front is my No. 1 thing, then anything else that I have room for will flourish.

What is your biggest challenge?

Soterion: My biggest challenge is overcoming the stigma that being in the beauty industry is about vanity. This is lipstick. This is just so frivolous. It’s not like I pick up my paintbrushes and it paints away homelessness or something. Sometimes I struggle with that, but it’s remembering some of the powerful moments in history that I’ve shared in as a result of being a makeup artist that corrects my vision. It’s also the moments where I’m working on a cancer patient and I’m helping them to be able to feel better about going through their day, with being able to make it look like they feel great so

Who was your favorite professor at SNHU? Soterion: Well, I’d have to say that my absolute favorite professor would be (retired Prof.) Lynda Gamans Poloian, who also happens to be my mom. I did have her as an instructor for my retailing class and I always joke around that she gave me a B. But the reason she is my favorite professor was she brought me up in education and really stressed the necessity of a good education as a foundation for further success.

Makeup Master

By Patricia Garrity

Kriss Soterion ’87 knows how to put your best face forward.

Soterion is a master makeup artist. Pundits raved after she gave presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton a pre-debate makeover last summer. She’s powdered a number of highprofile faces, including politicians Pat Buchanan, Jimmy Carter and former President Bill Clinton, and done makeup work for the networks, the Discovery Channel, CNN and Food Network. She operates a salon in Manchester, N.H., and has created her own product line, Kriss Cosmetics.

Who is the most interesting person to whom you have applied makeup?

Soterion: It was actually one of the most important moments I ever did makeup. It was three days after the 9/11 attack.

I was working for NBC Nightly News, applying makeup to Tom Brokaw but also to former President (George) Bush Sr. President Bush Sr. was making the first transcontinental flight from Texas to Logan Airport to let the American people know that it was safe to fly commercial airlines again … there were SWAT teams everywhere and I had to get special clearance. I realized that in that moment of time I was probably in one of the most dangerous places in the country doing makeup.

My biggest challenge is overcoming the stigma that being in the beauty industry is about vanity … but it’s remembering some of the powerful moments in history that I’ve shared in as a result of being a makeup artist that corrects my vision.

But the one that fills me with the most energy would have to be Bono from U2. I did his makeup at the Democratic convention in Boston. I was working with CNN and he was on “The Larry King Show.” That moment really was a zinger because he dropped his glasses down and he stared so deep in my eyes before I did his makeup. It’s almost like I received something from him that day. I’m not really sure what it was, but I think it might have been a blessing of some sort.

SCHOOL OF

Tilling Tradition

By Woullard Lett, School of Community Economic Development

Alicia Fitzpatrick ’07 hoped her students at Twin Buttes High School on the Zuni reservation in Zuni, N.M., would do something more constructive when she heard them complain about lunches.

When student Alex Jamon bemoaned the school’s lack of fresh produce, Fitzpatrick stressed to him the importance of finding solutions to problems rather than grousing about them. So he did.

Jamon hatched the idea to create a new elective science class dedicated to creating and managing a school greenhouse and a traditional Zuni waffle garden. Through it, students enhanced their modern school lunch program by applying the gardening techniques their Native American ancestors used.

“Zuni is traditionally an agrarian society,” Fitzpatrick said. “Agriculture and the Zuni religion are infused.”

Fitzpatrick has enabled the students to make decisions. She sought and received support from the school administration and a grant from the Red Rock Coalition, which is funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

Parents, school staff and community members are participating as well.

Students have created the garden and built a frame greenhouse to extend the growing season. They reflected on the waffle garden’s progress through photography, journaling and small group discussions. In addition to learning how to grow food, students have incorporated traditional Zuni practices into the school curriculum.

The Zuni have lived in the area since the 1500s, making them among the oldest stationary Native American settlements in North America. Their active lifestyle and traditional diet of corn and other vegetables sustained their health. But with major upriver civil engineering projects affecting their water supply and a modern food supply consisting of government surplus foods, their health began a slow deterioration that resulted in skyrocketing diabetes by the 1980s.

Nature and Nurture Working on traditional gardens enables her students to shape the future, says teacher Alicia Fitzpatrick ’07.

10 | The Extra Mile | Fall 2007

Students at Twin Buttes High School in Zuni, N.M., constructed a greenhouse so they could grow fresh vegetables for school lunches.

“

I developed the realization that people have the ability to not only co-exist with each other,

but work for a common goal. I see this as a platform for a fresh start in healthy living for the next generation of youth.

”

– Alex Jamon, student

Other projects have stemmed from the waffle garden project. The students demolished an old building on the school campus and turned the foundation into an outside classroom. They built benches for the school grounds using some of the wood. They also developed a water catchment system around the school building.

“I had an interest in doing a project with youth that involved the community, but I also knew the idea had to come from the youth,” said Fitzpatrick, an international community economic development program graduate.

The students plan to supplement school lunches and sell some of the harvest to the local store in Zuni, the beginning of a school agribusiness.

“I developed the realization that people have the ability to not only co-exist with each other, but work for a common goal,” Jamon said. “I see this as a platform for a fresh start in healthy living for the next generation of youth.”

What is a waffle garden?

Traditional Zuni waffle gardens are terraced, with perimeters of raised mud. The pattern created looks like a waffle from above.

The design makes efficient use of space and conserves water, an important factor in the arid Southwest. Crops include droughtresistant varieties of corn, squash, beans, melons, cilantro, chili peppers and more.

There is a saying in higher education that the difference between a good school and a great school is involvement of the alumni.

StayingConnected Hanging diplomas, talking about the university, mentoring and hiring students, attending events and supporting scholarships are just some of the ways alumni can advocate for the university.

“We would like our alumni to interact with every stage of a student’s experience,” said President Paul LeBlanc. “Very few students have graduated from here without the help of others.”

The university is fortunate to have many alumni visit campus, attend events, interact with and hire students, provide financial support and much more.

“Alumni are critical to our success because they’ve lived the SNHU experience,” said Don Brezinski, vice president of the Office of Institutional Advancement.

Finlay also has connected students to another organization he supports, Friends of Forgotten Children, which helps families in the Concord, N.H., area with food, clothing, household goods and holiday gifts. In September, student volunteers spruced up the building and landscaping and the university sponsored the organization’s grand re-opening. The organization also will employ SNHU work-study students.

“Alums becoming involved role-model the behavior and the philosophy we’re trying to develop on campus: a philosophy of service where we give back,” Center Coordinator Sarah Jacobs said.

Finlay has a successful career – he is now managing director of Hillcrest Management, a private investment group – and supports the university to give back.

University trustee Rob Finlay ’92 became involved with the service office last spring, when students installed computers at rural primary schools in South Africa. Finlay contributed $10,000 to the effort. Trustees Theresa DesFosses ‘72, Rick Courtemanche ’73 and Mike Brody ’73, among others, also contributed.

He does it in part out of gratitude for the contacts faculty helped him make when he was getting started. He also feels it is important to “stay connected to your roots.”

“What SNHU offers – you can’t put a price tag on it.”

Blais ’88 and ’90 appreciates the connection a fellow alumnus can make with his students.

“They reinforce some of the messages we’re giving. Then students say, ‘I guess Blais does have a clue, he does

know what he’s talking about,’” Blais said, laughing. “They get the sense that could be them in five years.”

Neil Donahue ’82 was looking for something he could do for the university when he reached out to Assistant Professor Susan Torrey. A regional sales vice president for Compass Group, which provides food service for Microsoft, Fulton’s Crab House, the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, the Academy Awards and other well-known organizations and high-profile events, he speaks to hospitality students about this segment of the food service industry that he said “often goes unnoticed.”

Ithier speaks about sales-related topics, including motivating sales forces and building customer relationships, in marketing instructor Micheline Anstey’s classes. He also critiques students’ final project presentations.

Students see the value of an SNHU education and how it’s used in the real world, Anstey said.

“Word of mouth will drive admissions,” Brezinski said.

That’s certainly been the case with Teresa Prim ’89, of Chicago. The community economic development and real estate finance consultant influenced at least seven School of CED graduates to enroll in the program. Prim and her husband, Sequane Lawrence ’96, also spread the word when hosting their annual African-American community economic development networking event.

“The bottom line is that he encourages them to work hard now while they’re in school as this is where their work ethic and character are revealed,” she said.

It’s his way of saying thank you.

David Lee ’87 and ’93 loved SNHU so much that he persuaded his daughter, Carole, to attend.

“

I know when I was there, there were alumni who helped me, and I always valued that and appreciated that.

”

– Ed Ithier, ’87

David Lee ’87 and ’93, newly elected alumni board president, is so devoted to the university that he persuaded his daughter, lacrosse player Carole Lee, to turn down bigger scholarship offers to attend SNHU.

The athletics program drew Scott McKenzie ’97, a Nashua Center student, to campus; years after graduating, his whole family has ties here.

“I really love the school, especially the sports. It’s a family thing,” he said. “It was a great honor to have my daughter get a scholarship and play up there.”

McKenzie used to take his son to SNHU hockey games. He was so impressed with the team that years later he still presents an annual award of his creation – the Fire and Ice Award -- to a member of the team. He now brings his daughter, 11, to lacrosse games; he has been a guest speaker in classes; and his wife, Susan McKenzie, teaches math in the undergraduate day school.

Alumni have a vested interest in staying involved, which helps strengthen the university, Lee said.

“Here I always felt that I was somebody,” he said. “And people would go out of their way to help me.”

“The more the university improves over the years, the more your degree means,” he said.

Robin (Sorenson) Kazes ’97 volunteers for the President’s Cup Golf Tournament, Alumni Weekend, the annual wine festival and other activities, especially those that raise money for student aid.

“When I came on campus, I was paying for college myself. (The university)

found ways that I could get money. I got the Alumni Scholarship as well,” she said. “Otherwise I would have walked away from college.”

Alumni events are great networking opportunities for alumni, too, she said.

“It’s not even about careers and jobs and resumes,” said Kazes, manager of accounts payable and payroll for Scrivanos, which provides services for Dunkin Donuts’ 120 stores and 1,500 employees in four states. “You find yourself in a position where you can ask for advice.”

Finally, Kazes volunteers simply because it’s fun.

“I always think of it as being selfish,” said Kazes, a member of the alumni board. “I know if people get involved with the school, they’re going to have a good time.”

Learn more about alumni activities and ways you can become involved by visiting www.snhu.edu/alumni online.

“I believe the program really enhances people’s skills,” she said.

Staying connected also benefits her professionally.

“There are still resources and information that I’m able to get from the program, either through my peers or by contacting the instructors directly,” she said.

Work is a frequent topic when Amy Moy ’02 helps with recruiting. A graduate of the 3Year honors business program, Moy recently accepted a marketing and sales position for Mighty Innovations, a hightech Web applications company. She speaks at 3Year program networking events and prospective student open houses, often to parents who want to know about her career.

“Parents always want to hear about life on campus and getting a job after,” she said. “It’s a two-way benefit: There’s a lot you can add for those students.

I am amazed that every time I go back to an event, I connect with someone who is beneficial in my personal or professional life.”

Using SNHU’s Dorothy S. Rogers Career Development Center is a winwin for alumni, according to Director Jim Kuras.

The center is always looking for alumni to help students with informational interviews, resume help, mock interviews and mentoring, and is always seeking news of internship opportunities and job openings.

Strong connections can be made through the career center. The mock interview service helped Ithier get his internship. The person who hired him went to another company, then hired Ithier for a job after he graduated.

Alumni looking for jobs can use the center for job-hunting assistance from center staff and from other alumni.

“Alumni help each other – that’s one of the most value-added aspects of the higher education community,” Brezinski said. “Just hearing (an applicant) is a Southern New Hampshire University alumnus in a job search ought to make you want to talk to them.”

Please contact Jim Kuras at j.kuras@snhu.edu for more information.

“We all know that the world revolves around who you know,” Kuras said.

“Students understand that relationships are built over time.”

The center has an online mentoring program as well as campus recruiting through career and internship fairs and Resume-o-Rama days, where employers critique student resumes.

(The next career fair will be in March.)

Kazes had a great experience with an accounting student she brought to Scrivanos for an internship.

“It brought a little SNHU to my place of business,” she said.

The center soon will launch online resume-writing and interviewing modules, which will feature sponsorship opportunities for companies. Kuras also hopes alumni will use the online SNHU Recruit system to post jobs openings online.

“The bottom line is that he encourages them to work hard now while they’re in school as this is where their work ethic and character are revealed,” she said.

It’s his way of saying thank you.

David Lee ’87 and ’93 loved SNHU so much that he persuaded his daughter, Carole, to attend.

“

I know when I was there, there were alumni who helped me, and I always valued that and appreciated that.

”

– Ed Ithier, ’87

David Lee ’87 and ’93, newly elected alumni board president, is so devoted to the university that he persuaded his daughter, lacrosse player Carole Lee, to turn down bigger scholarship offers to attend SNHU.

The athletics program drew Scott McKenzie ’97, a Nashua Center student, to campus; years after graduating, his whole family has ties here.

“I really love the school, especially the sports. It’s a family thing,” he said. “It was a great honor to have my daughter get a scholarship and play up there.”

McKenzie used to take his son to SNHU hockey games. He was so impressed with the team that years later he still presents an annual award of his creation – the Fire and Ice Award -- to a member of the team. He now brings his daughter, 11, to lacrosse games; he has been a guest speaker in classes; and his wife, Susan McKenzie, teaches math in the undergraduate day school.

Alumni have a vested interest in staying involved, which helps strengthen the university, Lee said.

“Here I always felt that I was somebody,” he said. “And people would go out of their way to help me.”

“The more the university improves over the years, the more your degree means,” he said.

Robin (Sorenson) Kazes ’97 volunteers for the President’s Cup Golf Tournament, Alumni Weekend, the annual wine festival and other activities, especially those that raise money for student aid.

“When I came on campus, I was paying for college myself. (The university)

found ways that I could get money. I got the Alumni Scholarship as well,” she said. “Otherwise I would have walked away from college.”

Alumni events are great networking opportunities for alumni, too, she said.

“It’s not even about careers and jobs and resumes,” said Kazes, manager of accounts payable and payroll for Scrivanos, which provides services for Dunkin Donuts’ 120 stores and 1,500 employees in four states. “You find yourself in a position where you can ask for advice.”

Finally, Kazes volunteers simply because it’s fun.

“I always think of it as being selfish,” said Kazes, a member of the alumni board. “I know if people get involved with the school, they’re going to have a good time.”

Learn more about alumni activities and ways you can become involved by visiting www.snhu.edu/alumni online.

“I believe the program really enhances people’s skills,” she said.

Staying connected also benefits her professionally.

“There are still resources and information that I’m able to get from the program, either through my peers or by contacting the instructors directly,” she said.

Work is a frequent topic when Amy Moy ’02 helps with recruiting. A graduate of the 3Year honors business program, Moy recently accepted a marketing and sales position for Mighty Innovations, a hightech Web applications company. She speaks at 3Year program networking events and prospective student open houses, often to parents who want to know about her career.

“Parents always want to hear about life on campus and getting a job after,” she said. “It’s a two-way benefit: There’s a lot you can add for those students.

I am amazed that every time I go back to an event, I connect with someone who is beneficial in my personal or professional life.”

Using SNHU’s Dorothy S. Rogers Career Development Center is a winwin for alumni, according to Director Jim Kuras.

The center is always looking for alumni to help students with informational interviews, resume help, mock interviews and mentoring, and is always seeking news of internship opportunities and job openings.

Strong connections can be made through the career center. The mock interview service helped Ithier get his internship. The person who hired him went to another company, then hired Ithier for a job after he graduated.

Alumni looking for jobs can use the center for job-hunting assistance from center staff and from other alumni.

“Alumni help each other – that’s one of the most value-added aspects of the higher education community,” Brezinski said. “Just hearing (an applicant) is a Southern New Hampshire University alumnus in a job search ought to make you want to talk to them.”

Please contact Jim Kuras at j.kuras@snhu.edu for more information.

“We all know that the world revolves around who you know,” Kuras said.

“Students understand that relationships are built over time.”

The center has an online mentoring program as well as campus recruiting through career and internship fairs and Resume-o-Rama days, where employers critique student resumes.

(The next career fair will be in March.)

Kazes had a great experience with an accounting student she brought to Scrivanos for an internship.

“It brought a little SNHU to my place of business,” she said.

The center soon will launch online resume-writing and interviewing modules, which will feature sponsorship opportunities for companies. Kuras also hopes alumni will use the online SNHU Recruit system to post jobs openings online.

“This is the tool to use if you want to sell yourself. Oldfashioned portfolios are cumbersome; ePortfolio adds value to the resume and to the interviewing process,” she said. “The entire team involved in the interview can view the e-portfolio together, making the process much more collaborative.”

Beyond Paper In addition to being less cumbersome, e-portfolios allow for the inclusion of more varied and creative material. For example, students can upload video vignettes of themselves teaching classes, as well as examples of their lesson plans. Electronic portfolios can be sent in advance of a job interview, allowing a principal to preview a new teacher’s ability and gain insight into his or her disposition in the classroom.

Alumna Leann McCormack’s college portfolio continues to wow her employer, even now that she is on the job.

“I received a very positive response from the principal who hired me, and I’m probably going to be on the technology committee at my new school because of it,” said McCormack ’07, an elementary education graduate.

McCormack’s work isn’t in a leather-bound, plastic-sleeved binder or case; she keeps her portfolio on her computer.

These “digital resumes” are going online at the university this fall, beginning with the School of Education. The technology enables the school to better train tomorrow’s teachers and give them a digital avenue to help them find work. SNHU introduced ePortfolio using a Teacher Quality Enhancement Grant through the state Department of Education.

“Paper resumes are giving way to electronic portfolios,” said Associate Dean Ellen J. Kalicki. “The state strongly recommends that all education students have e-portfolios because they’re an excellent assessment tool, but they can also be very helpful for new graduates looking for employment as they can easily be shared with prospective employers via the Internet.”

E-portfolios are more than digital resumes. They are intended to be a valuable part of the learning process as well. For example, instructors can electronically assess student work. Students upload their work, be it videos, PowerPoint presentations, a series of lesson plans or their philosophy of education. Imbedded grading frameworks electronically assess the material and provide feedback to students and instructors. Instructors can determine students’ levels of competency, which in turn also informs instruction.

Not Just for College E-portfolios are used by students at universities across the country, including Pennsylvania State University, Indiana University and Stanford University. Now their use is trickling down even to the elementary school level.

McCormack recently showed a group of veteran teachers in her district how to create an electronic portfolio. Just as they do at the college level, e-portfolios could help teachers and administrators at all levels track student growth and development.

“At first the technological aspect was intimidating,” she said. “But once I showed them how to upload ‘artifacts,’ the teachers were relieved to see how easy it was to use.”

Prior to a student’s graduation, faculty and staff will use the tools to determine whether he or she has met state standards for pre-service teachers.

Star Search

It’s like you are courting the most beautiful girl in high school. You go from the flirting stage to the point where you think you have a date for the prom, and then the next thing you know she dumps you and goes with someone else.

Women’s basketball coach Karen Pinkos spent 16 years recruiting at the Division I level before coming to Division II SNHU two years ago.

By Tom McDermott, Sports Information Director

The art of recruiting is a big part of being a successful coach, though it often goes unnoticed.

Coaches at Southern New Hampshire University go the extra mile to land top recruits. The list of talented athletes who have worn the Penmen “blue and gold” over the years is impressive.

Men’s basketball coach Stan Spirou has learned that it is not an exact science.

“We got a call to take a look at this player in Toronto,” said Spirou. “We made the trip and I was not interested in the player we went to see, but noticed Wayne and fell in love with the kid.”

The hard part was persuading the extremely shy Robertson to leave home for a strange city 600 miles away. Spirou knew he had to get him on campus for an official visit, an important part in the recruiting process that often seals the deal.

“He was not very receptive to our offer, but once we got him on campus and he had a chance to see the school and meet the team, he felt much more comfortable,” Spirou said.

Hall of Fame

Athletic Director Chip Polak has announced the addition of William Beane, John Rootes and the 1989 men’s soccer team to the university’s Athletic Hall of Fame. The honorees will be inducted Jan. 19.

With the addition of the 2007 inductees, the SNHU Athletic Hall of Fame now consists of 79 individuals and one team.

Beane and Rootes both served as head men’s soccer coaches at the university, while the 1989 men’s soccer team still owns the distinction of being the only team in the history of SNHU athletics to win a NCAA National Championship.

Beane could be considered the “Father of Penmen Soccer,” as he was the program’s first coach.

Hall of Fame

Athletic Director Chip Polak has announced the addition of William Beane, John Rootes and the 1989 men’s soccer team to the university’s Athletic Hall of Fame. The honorees will be inducted Jan. 19.

With the addition of the 2007 inductees, the SNHU Athletic Hall of Fame now consists of 79 individuals and one team.

Beane and Rootes both served as head men’s soccer coaches at the university, while the 1989 men’s soccer team still owns the distinction of being the only team in the history of SNHU athletics to win a NCAA National Championship.

Beane could be considered the “Father of Penmen Soccer,” as he was the program’s first coach. He spent four seasons, from 1965 through 1968, on the sidelines and led the team to a combined 21-7 record during his first two seasons. He did dual duty as head baseball coach during that time and led the Penmen to back-to-back NEIBA titles in 1967 and 1968.

Dave Landry ’83 helps a student hone his IT skills.

Miquel De Los Santos, a junior in college and an alumnus of the Technology Training Program, now works for ABCD and Verizon Business. He jokingly calls himself the program’s “poster child.”

“There is a hidden talent in each of the kids,” he said. “Now I am a mentor for the students both technically and personally. It is great to watch them grow.”

Dave Landry ’83, John Xintaras Jr. ’99 and Attila Galuska ’99, through their employer, Verizon, are teaching low-income Boston-area teens information technology skills that will help them in their scholastic and professional careers.

For three years, Verizon Business has partnered with Action for Boston Community Development Inc., the largest independent, private, nonprofit human services agency of its kind in New England. ABCD serves more than 100,000 low-income individuals and families annually while working to eliminate poverty.

Verizon Business provides a 15-week Technology Training Program at ABCD for approximately 30 teenagers from lowincome families each year. The original

26 | The Extra Mile | Fall 2007

aim of the program was to teach basic Microsoft Office systems, such as Word and Excel. But instructors quickly found that many of the students were more advanced, so the program switched to Web site design and broader information technology skills.

Landry, vice president of billing for Verizon Business, has been with the program from the beginning. He gets tremendous satisfaction from working with the students.

“I am now learning (HTML) with them, trying to read ahead before class,” he said. “It’s great seeing how students put it all together.

The creative product blew me away.”

“It’s a different experience from the usual workload,” Galuska added.

Once the 15-week program is completed, students present their completed Web sites to family, friends and city officials. They are then placed in paid internships through ABCD’s SummerWorks program.

William Trueheart Scholarship Lasting Memory Phil King ’00 and Michael Provencher ’00 wanted their beloved information technology professor, William Trueheart, to be remembered long after his retirement in May 2000. So they created a university scholarship in the associate professor’s name.

“Professor Trueheart’s commitment to developing a student’s potential, his passion for teaching and his compassion for his students are just part of his legacy.” King said.

For Trueheart, it was more than an honor; it was an opportunity to help students after he left the classroom.

After retiring from the U.S. Army in 1980, Trueheart came to SNHU to teach information technology. For the next 20 years he worked to guide and educate the many young men and women who passed though his classroom. Though no longer teaching, he will be able to continue helping students by easing their financial burden through this scholarship.

“

Professor Trueheart’s commitment to developing

a student’s potential, his passion for teaching and his compassion for his students are just part of his legacy.

”

– Phil King ’00

“I’d hate for a student to be held back for financial reasons,” he says. “Knowing that this scholarship will help to give a student a chance in life to go somewhere really means a lot.”

Members of the Trueheart family have offered to match each dollar donated, up to $2,500. Once fully endowed, the William Trueheart Scholarship will provide a legacy to his teaching excellence and provide support for IT majors.

Awards will be based on academic achievement, involvement in university life and financial need.

To support the William Trueheart Scholarship or learn more about other giving opportunities, please contact the Office of Institutional Advancement at 603.645.9688 or visit snhu.edu online.
