Summer 2015
Dear Xavier Alumni and Friends,
With joy and hope, I address you as president of Xavier University of Louisiana!
You will find an article by Richard Tucker within this publication that will offer a small glimpse into who I am and where I’ve been, so I won’t provide those details here. But let me just take this opportunity to convey how deeply honored I am to be at Xavier and how eager I am to work with all of you – the faculty, staff, alumni, students, friends and other stakeholders – to assure that the distinctive mission of this University is sustained and enhanced in the evolving higher educational environment.
As you would expect, the initial months in this new position have been quite hectic. There has been much to learn (and am still learning) about what makes Xavier “Xavier” — its culture, its opportunities and its challenges. There is also much to do pertaining to the day-to-day operations of the University and preparing for the arrival of the new class.
I am looking forward to visiting with our distinguished alumni who are dispersed out across the nation. I look forward to meeting with as many of you as I can in the near future, most especially at our Fall 2015 Homecoming.
May you enjoy this issue of Xavier Gold magazine, which covers a range of University highlights, alumni accomplishments, and many events from the past year.
As is the custom, we also include in this issue the annual Honor Roll of Donors. The continued support and generosity of each and every donor is vital to our mission to educate deserving students. We are forever grateful for your generosity.
The future of Xavier University of Louisiana is bright. With your unwavering support, commitment, and prayers, together we will continue to ensure that Xavier University remains this great gift to the nation.
Sincerely,
C. Reynold Verret President XG Summer 2015XG 2 Au Courant Current Events, News and Other Happenings at Xavier

JIMMIE WICKHAM ‘61 has been living the Golden Rule through her service in the Peace Corps, her teaching career and her community volunteer service. Born and raised in McAlester, OK, she was inspired by her mother, Pearl, who was a school teacher, to spend her life creating change. Her father, Dr. Charles Wickham, died the year after she was born. Jimmie chose to attend Xavier University in New Orleans, the birth place of her father. She graduated from Xavier in 1961. While attending a homecoming event a few years ago, a friend told her about the benefits of the Charitable Gift Annuity. “This provides income for me for the rest of my life, and will continue the support of Xavier after my death. That’s a win/win for both Xavier and me.” By establishing the ($20,000) Wickham Charitable Gift Annuity, she has ensured her legacy will live on after she is gone and will continue to help future generations of Xavier Students. She sees this as an important tool for estate planning and encourages others to consider this option.
