Volume 48, Issue 3 Summer 2008 from the Blessings Continue to Abound at Lubbock Christian University

Volume 48, Issue 3 Summer 2008 From the Blessings continue to abound at Lubbock Christian University. From a surprising, start-up women’s softball program that brought a national championship to LCU to a rewarding financial campaign that far exceeded our goal, the blessings have been President great and greatly appreciated.

I hope you enjoy reading the story about our ladies and coaches who made history in women’s softball. They are a remarkable group and have brought so much positive attention to LCU.

Then, our campaign is such a great story. Over $34 million in gifts were given in our 50th Anniversary Campaign. Just a few years ago, we were wondering if we could ever reach our original goal of $24 million. So many of you made such a difference, and again we are so thankful.

There will be other news of interest in this issue of Reflections. We hope the articles adequately tell the story of how God continues to bless and change lives at Lubbock Christian University.

Sincerely, Reflections is published three times a year by Lubbock Christian University and produced by the Marketing Communications Department. L. Ken Jones The mission of Reflections is to provide alumni and friends of LCU with news, President information and inspiration regarding the university and each other.

Campaign Conclusion and Donor Honor Roll 13 ONE SEASON ...ONE TITLE! ONE SEASON ...ONE TITLE!

Some men have their first dollar. The man who is really rich is one who still has his first friend. -- Apples of Gold

o Lubbock Christian University that “first friend” could very well Tbe Mr. B.R. “Rip” Griffin. The con- summate giver in the relationship between himself and the university, Mr. Griffin continually places his hand on projects within the confines of the 19th street campus that seem to turn into huge success stories, particularly when it comes to athletics.

In September of 2000 it was the Rip Griffin Center, a multi- purpose athletic facility that serves as home for LCU’s intercollegiate athletic teams as well as being a premier facility for campus and community educational and entertainment events. In the spring of that same school year, the LCU Chaparral men’s basketball squad claimed its first-ever Sooner Athletic Conference tournament title and a berth in the NAIA National Tourna- ment. The conference tourney was played in the brand new Rip Griffin Center.

A longtime trustee of LCU and a noted community leader, Mr. Griffin provided a bulk of the funding for “The Rip” and today it stands as one of the more iconic symbols of the university.

Another of the school’s success stories hap- pened recently and Rip was behind this story as well. When talk of Lubbock Chris- tian University beginning a softball program came up, well, as you might surmise by now, Mr. Griffin stepped up to provide the needed resources to get things started. His love and passion for LCU and the inspiration that he believes the school provides for the Lubbock community was a driving force behind getting involved with the newly formed softball program - a program that, as most who follow the university even remotely are aware by now, managed to win a National Championship in its inaugural season of 2008.

“I knew that if we got the right people involved we could make it work,” said Mr. Griffin when commenting about his willingness to help underwrite the softball program. “We were able to get (head coach) Shanon (Hays) and that was the first step in making sure we were going to be doing things right. It has been pretty obvious through the years that having a Hays involved produces good results for LCU.

“What that team and those girls were able to do is something that happens very few times in your life,” proudly says Mr. Griffin of the ‘08 NAIA softball champions. “They should be very proud of what they accomplished and, more impor- tantly, how they, along with their coaches, represented the university with class and character. I’m certainly proud to be affiliated with them, I’ll tell you that.” Rip Griffin congratulates the LCU softball The Hays name is synonymous with success at LCU and Mr. team during the welcome home party. Griffin is certainly mindful of what that means to the university. He served on the board of trustees for many years with the late L.D.

Hays) love Lubbock Christian Uni- Hays (’91) versity,” said Griffin reflectively. “Their love and dedication to the school and the family environment that they created makes it easy to see why its such a great relationship between the Hays family and LCU.”

That relationship and the one that the university has managed to build through the years with Rip Griffin is, according to LCU President, Dr. L. Ken Jones, the sole reason softball exists on the campus.

It’s a safe bet to assume that L.D. Hays had “I knew that a perfect view of the Lady Chaps’ great run to the if we got the national title. Before right people his passing it was not at all uncommon to involved we see L.D. pacing up and down the nearest con- could make course as he watched games that were being it work.” coached either by Larry or Daren. That pacing in all likelihood continued from a van- tage point that we all yearn to have one day. His influence on Lubbock Christian University is definitely far-reaching just as that of Mr. Griffin.

“We all knew that in order to get a women’s softball program put together, we needed someone to help us.” said Dr. Jones of Mr. Griffin’s part in the process. “During the discussion about starting the program, Mr. Griffin agreed to underwrite the first year of the development stage of the program. This was another part of the lasting imprint that Rip Griffin has had on Lubbock Christian University.”

The biggest surprise of any of the softball program’s funda- Coach Hays answers the big question, “How did you win it all in the first year?”

mental beginnings would probably be the willingness of the community to jump on board so quickly to help with the addition of a new playing facility on the LCU campus.

“It would have been hard for me to go to these girls that we were able to recruit this first year and tell them that we were starting a program, but we really don’t have a place to play,” said Hays. “When Rip got behind us I knew we were in good shape, but then PlainsCapital Bank and United also stepped up, like they always have, and helped us with what I believe is one of the best facilities in the country (PlainsCapital Park).”

Hays did the rest, or so it seems. The university, under the guidance of Dr. Jones, Provost Rod Blackwood and Athletic Director Paul Hise, made the decision to hire the head coach in the fall of 2006, but they also opted to wait until the spring of 2008 to actually begin their first season of play on the field. That year-plus of recruiting time gave Hays a head start on landing some of the outstanding players that he was able to sign to play for the Lady Chaps and, consequently, that decision would prove to pay huge dividends.

“I firmly believe that by us not starting in the spring of 2007 we were able to sign a higher quality athlete than we would have been able to,” recalled Hays of his first recruiting efforts. “Selfishly and anx- “ ...h e iously I was really kind of upset that we weren’t playing that first spring, wanted but I’m not always the smartest guy to win around.

The path that he chose was one that provided, at least at first, a means by which he coped with his difficult family life. “As I look back, I don’t see it as a boy who was intending to make bad choices, I see it as a boy who was coping in the only way he knew how to.” But the church kept reaching out to him, inviting him to youth activities and also making it financially possible for him to attend Pine Springs Summer Camp in New Mexico. Even during some of these years of Kindness when he was avoiding church, he went to Pine Springs. He recalls that “Pine Springs was a taste of the home I longed for even in those Influence troubled years.” But he stayed on that difficult trail filled with bad choices. And he began to gain a reputation in El Paso. He found that he was building influence, but not in a positive way. He also began to understand that the path that he had made for himself was very destructive. “I lived a life that I am not proud of,” says Michael.

“ ...some- Michael remembers, “When I was 18, I was in K-Mart in El Paso and one has to I ran into Mrs. Cheney who used to teach me in Sunday school.

Michael began to rub elbows with faculty, staff and fellow students During the next six years, Michael attended Bible classes and VBS in a way that he had never before experienced. “When my Koinonia sessions, being nurtured and taught about God’s love through a bud, Keith Giboney, would reminisce about his high school years, number of individuals. One of those teachers was Nancy Cheney. “I liked teaching little kids, but sometimes I would work with third and fourth graders during VBS and the summer Bible series. It was so much fun to teach and it was a positive experience for me.”

Michael says of those years, “During that period when the bus was picking us up until my parents divorced when I was 11, those were some of the happiest times of my life because of our involvement at the church. In spite of the fact that life was not perfect and much ungodliness existed at home, those were some of my happier years.”

Both were extraordinarily exciting and successful. We were able to look back and honor the pioneering spirit that indwelled the people who brought Lubbock Christian University to where it is today. We were also able to cast our gaze to the future that God holds for this university. $32,446,586 One facet of God’s providence for our future was made actual amount evident as he moved in the hearts of those who invested financially in the future of LCU through this campaign. 24 000 000 Over 3,744 donors partnered with us during the “Chang- $ , , ing Lives forever…” campaign allowing us to surpass the goal original goal of $24 million; a goal which our advisors stated would be attainable, but which would require lots of hard work.

The facts are - we did work hard, you graciously respond- ed to our vision for the future and the Lord did provide. Our initial goal of $24 million was not only surpassed, it was dwarfed. The final total for the campaign was $32,446,586.

All of the gifts that make up this total are important to us. Some of them were small and some were big. The important thing is that so many individuals were a part of this great effort. One of the most exciting figures in all of the data that was assimilated was the number of first time donors. We are delighted that 2,954 first time donors became involved in the university’s future during this campaign.

Matt Paden (’02) has been appointed as Development Officer, in the Department of University Ad- vancement. Although he is new to this role, he is not new to LCU. Prior to this appointment he was serving as the Dean of Campus Life and previous to that he was Director of Admissions and Assistant Men’s Basketball Coach. He holds a BS in secondary education and a MS in Bible and Ministry. Paden is married to Kagney (Zahn, ’05) and they are the new parents of daughter, Zaylee.

“This is such an exciting time to be part of the LCU family and I am thrilled about the opportunity to help further the mission of the university by establishing new relationships and strengthening exist- ing bonds with the students, alumni, and friends of Lubbock Christian University,” said Paden of his new appointment. www.lcu.edu 13 It's never too soon to give back I always promised myself that I would finish college. Sometimes life interrupts our best laid plans and things don’t always turn out the way we expect. I had an Associate’s Degree, but desperately wanted that Bachelor’s, and at 34 was getting distressed at the idea of being able to work full time, keep my household going and finish school. I was convinced that it would take forever.

One day the television was on and I hear reference to a press conference being held at Midland College. Well, MC is where I got my Associate’s so I am always interested in what is going on there. The announcement was of a partnership between Midland College and Lubbock Christian University, which would offer working students over the age of 25 a Bachelor degree in Organizational Management in less than two years. God tapped me on the shoulder and I was drawn to the TV like a magnet. Pen and paper in hand, I feverishly started writing down information. The next morning I called to find out more. There was an orientation that evening and I was there. The next morning I started filling out paperwork, gathering information, requesting a transcript and in three days, I had applied to LCU for enrollment to finish college!

LCU had answered all of my prayers. For the next 20 months administration, staff, direc- tors, teachers, and professors all helped me attain my goal and in May 2002, I graduated Suma Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Science in Organizational Management (BSOM). Even though it is fast-paced, the schedule allows focus on studying one subject at a time, instead of juggling multiple subjects at once.

It may not be as much as others can give, but it is my way of giving back in hopes that LCU will enter someone else’s life at a point where they need it, as it did in mine. But every successful campaign is given a jump start by those willing to give what are referred Reesa Holland LCU OM Graduate 2002 to as the “Lead Gifts.” They help to “get the ball Reesa rolling” and to give momentum to the effort. In Holland (’02), far previous publications we have mentioned that right on the lead gifts were given by Rip and Geneva Griffin, Excursions Royce and Barbara Hunter and by the Randolph trip to New T. and Lois Mills Estate.

Each of their generous gifts combined to make some very early head-way toward a goal that, at the time, seemed huge.

Joining them along the way with some gifts that helped boost the campaign total in huge spurts were several others. The largest gift ever given by an alumnus of LCU was donated by Dr. B. Ward Lane and his wife, Pat. In honor of this gift, the College of Professional Studies was renamed to bear Dr. Ward’s name. Others who have given very large gifts include Alice O’Bryan, a friend of the university who lives in Albuquerque, NM.

They have been dedicated to LCU through the years and with the music building being renovated felt that doing something for that area would be a good fit for their interests. On March 27th the Lowell Samuel Johnson and Billie Jo Reagan Johnson Recital Hall was dedicated. The evening included a performance by the Chamber Singers and several student groups performed along with Dr. Laurie Doyle and Dr. Ruth Holmes.

“The faculty and students of the Music Area are so grateful to Dr. Jones, Dr. Lowell Johnson, and the other donors for the renovation of the Allison Music Building, “said Dr. Laurie Doyle, Chair, Communi- cation/Fine Arts Dept, “We are proud to invite guests on to the LCU campus and into the Johnson Recital Hall for concerts and recitals. The current students are thrilled with the warm, modern look, and prospective students are impressed with the inviting facility. This up- date has made a great difference and will for years to come as we strive to change students’ lives through music.”

He married Louise Woodcock opinions.” Through the John B. “Jack” McCrery scholarship at LCU, in 1941. At the time he was with Cramp Shipbuilding Company in Jack’s love of the components in the engineering field can live on in Philadelphia.

Smith worked in Pampa until 1979 and was with Cabot until 1989. Cabot’s office in Pampa had a small group of employees and they encouraged a family-oriented atmosphere in getting their employees and their families connected with one another. It was challenging for employees to be involved in community things because the company did global business and would detail their employees to various places, J a c k usually other countries, for several weeks or sometimes even months.

For many alumni, parents and friends of Lubbock Christian University, it is a way they can join together to provide a promise of excellence for today’s LCU students. Tuition and fees cover most of LCU’s daily operating expenses such as utilities, salaries, and institutional support. But to ensure the promise of excellence for today’s LCU students facing the future of a highly competitive world market, an additional level of funding is needed.

The Annual Fund underwrites many budgeted items that would not be possible with revenues from tuition and fees alone. It helps give our students an additional boost to pursue excellence in the classroom and in the community. Monies raised through your gifts to the Annual Fund help LCU to:

Provide scholarships to reward academic achievement and assist students with financial need;

Employ and retain the best educators while keeping class size small;

Stay current with technology enhancements that affect all of our students and staff, like high speed and wireless internet, distance learning, and 24-hour accessible computer labs;

Maintain an up-to-date library and subscribe to print and online library journals that might otherwise be cost-prohibitive to maintain; and

Support a very successful Chaparral athletic program which has a history of success that continues today.

LCU has always depended and must continue to depend on private support to supplement revenue from tuition and fees, unlike state supported universities, which receive a majority of their funding from taxpayers.

LCU is committed to keeping tuition and fees low while making a Christian education accessible, a goal that can only be achieved with the broad support of many individuals. This is why your gift to the Annual Fund, no matter how large or small, makes a difference which can be measured by the success of our students and alumni. Your gifts to the LCU Annual Fund impact the cost of a college education for every student, enabling some to attend who could never otherwise afford a LCU education.

Annual Fund gifts have an impact that extends beyond today’s students. As these young men and women graduate, they will continue to impact their homes, workplaces, churches, and communities by modeling Christian service and leadership.

If you have never participated in the LCU Annual Fund please consider a gift today. As we enter our second 50 years of ministry, private support will be critical. Will you join us in supporting the LCU students of today and tomorrow?

Dont Miss This Chance!
