2 Springfield College Bulletin OCTOBER, 1973, VOLUME XLVIII, NUMBER 3 $7.3 Million Goal Surpassed

It was a night to remember. The 275 Alumni, faculty, students and -friends of the College who gathered at the Baystate West Motor Hotel on May 11th were there, to celebrate one of the greatest victories in the 88-year history of Springfield College. The $7.3 million Capital Campaign was successful. Thanks to a $50,000 contribution from the Sarah Mellon Scaife Foundation which put the drive over the top, vic­ tory was achieved in the most ambitious effort ever made by the College or by any organization in the City of Springfield. On hand to celebrate the victory was Trustee Art Linkletter, national chairman of the four-year program. As expected, his speech sparkled with the warmth and wit that made him an internationally famous entertainer. In passing verbal bouquets to his many associates in the campaign he stated, "this campaign has brought about a general improvement in campus facilities for teaching, research, housing and study and will enable the college to continue its top-flight educational pro- grams." . Dr. Art Linkletter, lames R. Martin and Mrs. Martin The completion of the campaign does not mean the at Springfield's Victory Dinner. end of fund drives to improve the college, Linkletter said, because"a college is constantly changing and constantly has new needs." The evening's program featured a film and color slide history of the campaign, from its planning stages through to its successful conclusion. Those men and women with leadership roles in the drive were depicted on a large screen at one end of the ballroom. In addition, guests were shown, on screen, the contrast between the College prior to the campaign and the College today, as a result of the successful program. A running narration, and music, added color to the presentation. Springfield's president, Wilbert E. Locklin also spoke during the evening's program. At one point he stated that the Victory Dinner was pJanned "to honor those who, with thousands of others, helped the college realize a $7.3 million accomplishment which many saw as an impossible dream just a few years ago." Art Linkletter added that the Campaign seemed like 1/ a financial Mt. Everest that we were attempting to climb. However, we have demonstrated that a small col­ lege in a small city can, indeed, dream impossible dreams and see them fulfilled." Eastern chairman James R. Martin, president of the Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Co., was also singled out for special honors. Martin, as head of the Greater Springfield campaign effort, saw his $1 million goal reached early in the drive. President Locklin, as Master of Ceremonies of the Victory Dinner program, authored the script for the eve­ ning and kept the activities moving at a steady pace, without losing any of the excitement generated by the Dr. Norman C. Keith at the microphone on May 11. occasion. Dr. Locklin's leadership throughout the drive

The Scaife Foundation gift was the sixth major grant to the College since the June, 1972, $100,000 "Challenge Grant" from the Kresge Foundation of Birmingham, Michigan. At the time of the challenge the College needed $500,000 to reach the $7.3 million goal. This challenge stipulated that $400,000 be raised by April 15, 1973. The challenge was met two months ahead of schedule. Other major gifts in the closing months of the drive came from the Charles A. Dana Foundation ($100,000); Dr. and Mrs. Richard P. Towne ($50,000); Mrs. Thomas P. Roberts ($50,000), and an anonymous gift of $26,000. The largest private donation was the $1 million gift from Dr. and Mrs. Paul T. Babson for the construction of the Babson Library. The Claude Worthington Benedum Foundation of Pittsburgh was responsible for the largest Foundation gift. With the cooperation of foundation president Paul G. Benedum, $250,000 was contributed toward the new poly-turf athletic field. Thousands of Springfield Alumni, members of the faculty and staff of the College, as well as students, par­ ents and friends of the College, all contributed to the final success of the major effort. James R. Martin reports success for the Eastern Cam­ paign. $378,000 from Alumni

Concerning the Alumni phase of the Campaign, over 2,000 Alumni contributed $378,000 to the Capital cam­ paign program. This money was raised by Alumni over and above the on-going Alumni Fund program, which saw over $100,000 raised for unrestricted purposes in each of the four years of the Capital Campaign. Chair­ man William W. Moore'41 headed the national Alumni campaign phase of the effort. Moore, Executive Di­ rector of the American Heart Association, is a former chairman of the Alumni Fund Committee. Throughout the memorable evening, the dedicated leadership of Board of Trustee presidents Norman C. Keith, Charles H. Schaaff, and Joseph B. Burns was rec­ ognized by President Locklin in his role as Master of Ceremonies. In the words of the president, "These men, each serving as president during the four-year campaign, gave the program the inspirational leadership necessary to insure success for the campaign and for the College." Among the most diligent workers toward this tremen­ dous effort were Public Affairs staff-men, Scott H. Will­ Scott Willson, Charles H. Schaaff, and Julius Apple­ son and Thomas L. Johnson. These two men, classmates ton, campaign leaders. at Springfield in the Class of '59, provided the profeSSional staff leadership for all phases of the campaign, while trav­ eling across the nation in search of needed funds for the greatest campaign in the dramatic development of Springfield College.

6 Springfield College Bulletin The Over-qualified

As with recent alumni of all colleges and universities, Springfield graduates have been ha~ing a rough time finding jobs. Not since the 1930's has the job market been so tight. Having a doctorate or a Master's degree has been no guarantee of employment either. It is not unusual to find a Ph.D. teaching on a high school level, or working outside his chosen field. The expression, "over-qualifiedll has become a cliche of our times. In an effort to dramatize this situation, we have re­ viewed Springfield's Class of 1971 to determine the occu­ pations of members of that class. It seems that 1971 ~as the first Springfield class to feel in depth the occupation "crunch". Over two years have passed since these men and women received their degrees, yet we find a surprising number in jobs and positions having no relation to their 3; medical technology, 4; and environmental careers, 4.

It seems that there is a new class in the nation-a sort of proletarianized intelligentsia. At a recent meeting of the College Trustee Committee U~EM(tO~MENT BURtAU on Student Affairs, a report was presented by Douglas Schumann, Director of the Placement Office. He listed the generally accepted reasons for the placement situa­ tion, and then offered some possible solutions. Some of these solutions included changes in the curriculum to in­ corporate multiple career-training programs; seminars involving persons now working in a community rela­ tions capacity to advise our students; and promotion by the Placement Office aimed toward the hiring of our stu­ dents by various businesses and corporations. According to Schumann, "our most sellable areas are women's PE, health education, physical therapy, public education, and para-medicine. The least sellable are ele­ mentary education and men's PE." Perhaps the most encouraging development in the past two years, for Springfield graduates, has been the trend toward community relations by business and corporate enterprises. It may be that we might encourage our stu­ dents, through promotional pieces, to take a long lo~k at STEES, BALTIMORE SUN these new "Springfield-related" fields. At the same time "We're loaded with PhD's, BA's, and the College might well consider the introduction of MA's. What we need is a couple courses aimed to prepare people-helpers for big business. of good body and fender men." H.G.L.
