OUT-OF-STATE TUITION CUT NEARLY IN HALF Austin Peay State University – Tennessee’s fastest-growing public university – is looking to attract more students from other states by drastically cutting its out-of- state tuition. For years, students living outside Tennessee paid about $11,000 per semester, but a new rate approved by Austin Peay’s Board of Trustees cuts that amount nearly in half to just under $6,200 for 12 credit hours. Dr. Rex Gandy, APSU provost, recommended the 43.5 percent out-of-state tuition reduction as a way of improving diversity at the regional university. “The majority of our students are from the Clarksville-Montgomery County area,” he said. “It’s important for us to attract students from other states who bring different perspectives, culture and knowledge to our campus.”

The dolls reached 93,914 feet at 11:13 a.m. Jan. 24. Balloon project team members hoped the launch helped raise awareness about the challenges of women rising in their fields of study. “While growing up, I never really thought of myself as being good at mathematics or physics, the really difficult STEM fields, but being able to do this and having a successful launch, being the lead on it, having that responsibility, it feels good,” Megan McCracken, team leader for the High-Altitude Balloon Team, said. McCracken is pursuing a degree in physics after earning a master’s in genetics and parasitology. Her goal is to become a professor, educating the next generation of scientists. “Today was for the women of STEM, getting our name out there and saying we support the women of science, that we support anyone in science, that they have the potential to achieve big things in their field,” she said. “It was having that picture of women in astronaut suits, being out there with the curvature of the Earth.” The team launched the balloon at 9:52 a.m. Jan. 24 from the Austin Peay Farm and Environmental Education Center on Pickens Road in Clarksville.

It affects me. It affected my ancestors. It affects all of us.” She cherishes her experience at Austin Peay. “I feel like I’ve learned a lot about myself.

She’s just easily bored and likes to mix things up a bit. This happened a few years ago, when she first started work as an instructor in Austin Peay State University’s Culinary Arts program. “I taught the bar service and bar management Kelley Price class, and one year, I said, ‘Why can’t we do more with the program?’” she said. “So we incorporated making beer and wine. That class now fills up first every time.” When the class first started, Price didn’t know how to make the beverages.

Price bottled her creations under the label Twisted Wines and submitted them to the Tennessee Viticultural Oenological Society’s annual wine making competition. “I entered one bottle, and I won silver,” she said. “That’s when I said, ‘This is pretty cool,’ so the following year I entered six bottles and won five – three golds, a silver and a bronze.” Now, Price has 500 bottles of wine aging at her farm in North Clarksville, and in the next few months, she plans to open Twisted Winery on the property.

6 45 | Fall 2019 AUSTIN PEAY | 46 GIVE BACK TO APSU THROUGH A CHARITABLE IRA

Did you know that after age 70 ½ annual withdrawals are required from traditional retirement accounts? After years of contributing to your tax-deferred 401(k) and IRA (individual retirement account), income tax will be due on that money when you take withdrawals in retirement. The penalty for skipping a required minimum distribution is 50 percent of the amount that should have been withdrawn. However, if you don’t need your distribution to cover living expenses, you can avoid income tax by donating your money directly to Austin Peay.

Just have your IRA trustee directly transfer funds from your IRA to Austin Peay to qualify for the tax break. If you withdraw the money from your IRA and donate it later, it will not qualify as a tax-free qualified charitable distribution.

For questions concerning this or other charitable gifts to APSU, contact the APSU University Advancement Office at 931-221-7127.

The (Double) Tax Benefits of Donating Appreciated Stock If you’re looking for a reliable tax strategy, then consider making a charitable donation. As long as you itemize and your gift qualifies, you can claim a charitable deduction. And you can enjoy an additional tax benefit if you donate long-term appreciated stock instead of cash.

Two Benefits from One Gift Any appreciated, publicly traded stock you’ve held for more than a year is considered long-term capital gains property. By donating it to Austin Peay State University, you may be able to enjoy two tax benefits: 1. By itemizing deductions, you can claim a charitable deduction equal to the stock’s fair market value. 2. You can avoid the capital gains tax you would pay if you sold the stock.

To set up your stock gift, contact the APSU Advancement Office at 931-221-7127 or [email protected].
