  • The Magazine for Alumni and Friends of Campbellsville University a Word from the President… NOVEMBER 2008
    VOL. 6, NO. 2 NOVEMBER 2008 The Magazine for Alumni and Friends of Campbellsville University A Word from the President… NOVEMBER 2008 Dear alumni and friends, We begin a new school year with thankful hearts! For the second year in a row Campbellsville University has received the high ranking of 22nd best among the South’s baccalaureate colleges by U.S.News & World Report, and for the 17th consecutive semester, we have a record enrollment. According to the latest numbers, CU has just reached a total of 2,601 students. It is our heartfelt goal that many of these students will be successful and eventually join the over 10,000 CU alumni around the world. What a force for good. We are thankful, too, that CU is nearing the completion of our $50 million Centennial Capital Campaign, and the expanded base of support has been very encouraging. We will need the continuing financial support of the growing number of Campbellsville University friends as we move forward. The challenge guiding us as we enter the second century can be summed up in two words, “quo vadis,” as spoken so eloquently by president emeritus Dr. Randy Davenport at our Heritage Day chapel service. Quo vadis—the Latin phrase first documented in the Bible when Peter asked of Jesus, “Where are you going?”—applies to our work on the new “vision for the second century” which is being prepared by the Vision Committee. As we fine-tune the vision of where CU is going for the second century and the next campaign, we are challenged to create the blueprint for the next ten to 20 years and beyond.

  • March 23, 2020 Via Email Governor Andy Beshear Lt. Governor
    March 23, 2020 Via email Governor Andy Beshear Lt. Governor Jacqueline Coleman The Honorable Robert Stivers The Honorable Morgan McGarvey The Honorable David Osborne The Honorable Joni Jenkins Dear Governor Beshear, Lt. Governor Coleman and Legislative Leaders: This letter is intended to provide additional recommendations urgently requested by Kentucky’s nonprofit sector as a follow up to the letter originally submitted via email on March 17 (see below). The original recommendations and these additions are critical to the nonprofit sector’s ability to weather this storm and continue to serve Kentucky’s most vulnerable during this crisis. Disruptions in state grants and contracts could trigger massive layoffs or even permanently shut down organizations providing health services, food assistance, emergency shelter, senior care, emergency child-care, mental health, substance use disorder treatment and other essential services in the Commonwealth. In addition to the original recommendations (see below), we recommend: • Special attention and funding are needed for the homeless population in Kentucky. Homeless individuals are not able to safely practice social distancing, wash their hands or take other recommended precautions to stay safe. They are also more likely to have underlying health conditions and a high volume of infection among this population will seriously stress our health system. Emergency funding to agencies that provide housing, healthcare and other services to homeless populations are needed, as well as creative responses to relieve existing shelters that do not have enough distance between beds to keep the virus from spreading. • We urge the Commonwealth to maintain customary payments to nonprofits that have current grants and contracts.
