As I have watched several of my personal financial invest- ments decline, I have been reminded of one investment whose value has continued to increase—my investment in students at Eastern Nazarene College.

Since early January we have taken ENC on the road to Carissa Olympic Gold Medalist Bryan Clay and President McGee. alumni events around the country—San Diego, Pasadena, Tampa, Orlando and Oklahoma City. Time after time alums have recounted personal stories of God’s provision for their education at ENC through the gifts of others. The late Myron Ladue (38) is a great example. He never thought he’d be able to afford a Christian education, but scholarships made it possible for him to get an ENC degree. Myron never forgot this inspirational generosity of spirit and resources from those in the ENC community, and as a result he co-established the Myron and Peggy Ladue Scholarship for incom- ing students with financial need. Karen (Russell, 82) Corbin was blessed to receive that scholarship, and wrote a thank-you note to the Ladues to tell them of her deep appreciation. This simple act sparked a life-long friend- ship. In fact, in talking to Peggy at an alumni reunion in Florida in March, she said Karen is one of her closest friends. (See left photo with Peggy.) By passing on the blessing he received, Myron made the best in- Courtesy photo vestment of all, the same one that once had been Dr. McGee stands with Peggy Ladue, wife of the late Myron Ladue (38) made in him. who established a scholarship at ENC in their names. I had the honor of first sharing this story of the cycle of giving at another significant event in the history of ENC on March 28, 2009—the launch of the ENC Society. The ENC Society is being implemented to create a culture of giving by not only working to provide ENC students with more resources, but to also provide an opportunity for those who give to create a lasting legacy. Members of the ENC Society commit to give $1,000 or more annually to support ENC’s students and pro- grams. The outpouring of support was a brilliant testament to the gen- erosity of ENC alumni and friends!

  • JERRY COHEN Jerry Cohen's Earliest Memories of Basketball Were When
    JERRY COHEN Jerry Cohen’s earliest memories of basketball were when “I used to watch my dad play when I was five or six years old in Boston adult leagues. He is the one who introduced me to the game. I always looked up to dad as a player – and I always wanted to be better than he was.” “The first time I ever played, I discovered I loved the game,” Jerry asserted. He grew up playing in parks and community centers, joining his first league in fourth grade. As he grew older, “I thought about playing football, but decided to play basketball all year long.” Jerry enrolled in John Glenn Middle School in 2002 under the Metco program, an integral part of the Bedford schools since 1974. He acknowledged that in daily life, “it was a big difference, a total change.” Indeed, he didn’t join the JGMS team until the following year, when he also played on the eighth grade travel team. One year after his first organized school basketball experience, Jerry found himself on the Buccaneer varsity as a freshman, playing alongside seniors Alberto Rue and Jeff Hughes, as well as his four-year teammate, Terrance Favors. “It was overwhelming -- until I played my first game,” Jerry recollected. “I remember the first game like it was yesterday. We were playing Boston Latin. The coach called my name and I just paused. My heart was beating out of my chest.” Jerry went on to win three Dual County League Most Valuable Player awards, and was a Boston Herald (2007) and Boston Globe (2008) all-scholastic.
