Spring 2005 SPARTANBURG METHODI ST COLLEGE Message from the President S P R I NG 2 0 0 5 Spartanburg Methodist College — Spring 2005 SPARTANBURG METHODIST COLLEGE SPARTANBURG METHODI ST COLLEGE Message from the President n graduate school, I took a course that helped me fully grasp the meaning of “professionals.” After weeks of class discussions, Ireadings, and research, I came to a simple but profound understanding: Professionals know who they are, what they are doing, and where they are going. In unique ways, this definition also applies to colleges and universities. To be effective in educating students, colleges must know who they are. Without such knowledge, the institution’s mission is unclear. And without a clear understanding of its mission, the institution’s ability to educate students and plan for its future is greatly impaired. Institutions must be intentional in doing what is best to promote student learning. Institutions that do not retain a sharp focus on their raison d’etre lose the ability to meaningfully engage in educational processes with students. Without an understanding of who they are and what they are doing, institutions will not know where they are going. An old Chinese proverb expresses it well: “If you don’t know where you’re going, any road will get you there.” The institution’s vision must build upon the history of the institution and remain faithful to the values upon which it was founded. Armed with this knowledge and with a resolute commitment to students, the institution must then develop its vision for the future. In mid-February, our Board of Trustees, along with selected administrators and faculty, held a two- day Strategic Planning Retreat that refreshed our understanding of who we are and what we are doing to promote student learning in and outside the classroom. As the retreat progressed, visioning activities helped the Board gain insight into the future of the College. The participants came to understand the challenges we face and the future we must pursue. The Board approved the construction of Sparrow Residence Hall, a 119-bed facility made possible through a generous pledge from Mr. John Sparrow in Lake City, S.C. Plans are being drafted to expand the Buchheit Administration Building through the addition of the Vassey Information Technology Center, a Center made possible through a bequest from the late Herbert and Rebecca Vassey. The College will continue to beautify the grounds and upgrade facilities. As we build for the future, we will expand our academic curriculum and degree programs. New career-track academic programs, such as our emerging Paralegal Studies Program, will be developed to offer our graduates the option either to continue their education at baccalaureate level institutions or immediately enter the work force after completing the associate’s degree. Also, we will continue to enhance student learning both in and outside the classroom. As we approach our 100th year anniversary in 2011, we ask for your prayers and your continued support. Even more, we invite you to become our partners in education. Together we will strengthen our college and better prepare our students to become effective leaders in the 21st Century.

In the final year of SMC’s Vision 2005 $20 Million Campaign, the 2004 totals are at more than $16 million. Dan Foster, Chairman of the SMC Board, said that 2004 commitments totaled $4,383,213. Foster made the announcement, which topped the previous high of $3,991,524 by approximately 10 percent, at the local Donors Appreciation Dinner, held February 15. Foster said it was a difficult fundraising year and that it took a number of year-end contributions to attain success. While the increased fundraising has enabled the College to construct new buildings such as the Bridges Residence Hall, it has also helped increase enrollment by 10 percent and improve the quality of the Fall 2004 entering class. President Charles P. Teague said that the $2 million challenge grant from Drs. Edgar H. and Charlotte Ellis was very instrumental in helping realize the totals.

  • Estimated Age Effects in Baseball
    ESTIMATED AGE EFFECTS IN BASEBALL By Ray C. Fair October 2005 Revised March 2007 COWLES FOUNDATION DISCUSSION PAPER NO. 1536 COWLES FOUNDATION FOR RESEARCH IN ECONOMICS YALE UNIVERSITY Box 208281 New Haven, Connecticut 06520-8281 http://cowles.econ.yale.edu/ Estimated Age Effects in Baseball Ray C. Fair¤ Revised March 2007 Abstract Age effects in baseball are estimated in this paper using a nonlinear xed- effects regression. The sample consists of all players who have played 10 or more full-time years in the major leagues between 1921 and 2004. Quadratic improvement is assumed up to a peak-performance age, which is estimated, and then quadratic decline after that, where the two quadratics need not be the same. Each player has his own constant term. The results show that aging effects are larger for pitchers than for batters and larger for baseball than for track and eld, running, and swimming events and for chess. There is some evidence that decline rates in baseball have decreased slightly in the more recent period, but they are still generally larger than those for the other events. There are 18 batters out of the sample of 441 whose performances in the second half of their careers noticeably exceed what the model predicts they should have been. All but 3 of these players played from 1990 on. The estimates from the xed-effects regressions can also be used to rank players. This ranking differs from the ranking using lifetime averages because it adjusts for the different ages at which players played. It is in effect an age-adjusted ranking.
