Depauw Today Scholarship recipient Nadine Farid ’95 lauds the generosity and continuing impact of scholarship donor Robert V. Copeland ’37 by Nadine Farid ’95 Climenko/Thayer Lecturer on Law Harvard University Law School DePauw graduates of generations past are renowned for their generos- ity. However, not all DePauw alumni have had the opportunity to not only benefi t from an alum’s thoughtful gift to the school but also make the close acquaintance of that alumnus or alumna. Those of us who were fortunate enough to receive the Copeland Scholarship to DePauw, established by Robert V. “Bob” Copeland ’37, had that rare opportunity. Mr. Copeland, who passed away on Aug. 12, 2004, came to DePauw in the footsteps of his two older brothers. He was, by all accounts, the quintessential DePauw student – intelligent, friendly, heavily involved in student life and dedicated to DePauw sports, playing basketball and football, and lettering twice. His fondness for the school and his experi- ence there is evident in his early career as an educator as well as in his exemplary generosity to the school. An Indiana boy who attended the former Valley Mills High (now part of Decatur Central High School) near where he was raised in India- napolis, Mr. Copeland moved to my hometown, Lebanon, Ind., prior to his retirement from Eli Lilly and Company in the 1970s. He and his wife, Josephine, lost their son Ronald in childhood. The Copeland Scholar- ship, now in the names of Robert and Josephine S. Copeland in memory of their son, was established to provide recipients with the opportunity Josephine and Robert V. “Bob” Copeland to attend DePauw that their son never had. Mr. Copeland specifi cally directed the scholarship to be received by students from the small town These experiences are shared by the family of Copeland Scholars. of Lebanon, thereby truly giving a unique opportunity to many a student Andrew “Drew” K. Powell ’98, a successful actor, has two siblings who who otherwise would not have been able to attend DePauw. also attended DePauw. About receiving the scholarship, Drew says, “The It is telling of Bob Copeland’s generous spirit that he decided to scholarship helped me to appreciate the true meaning of the word ‘com- fund the scholarship in such a way that he could meet the recipients munity.’ I was then, and continue to be, affected by Bob Copeland’s act himself. I was the fi rst four-year recipient of the scholarship to graduate of generosity. It made me proud to be from a community, Lebanon, that from DePauw. I can recall vividly the fi rst time I met Mr. Copeland: how cared about its young people, and it made me excited to enter a com- my initial nervousness was calmed immediately by his kind smile, how munity, DePauw, that people loved so much. I hope that, wherever he is, he spoke humbly, how he instructed me in the joys and benefi ts of golf (a Mr. Copeland can see the legacy that his stewardship has produced in the game at which, unfortunately, my skills are still lacking). Mr. Copeland had lives of the Copeland Scholars.” a genuinely engaging personality and a sense of humor that rivaled most. And James C. Roach ’97, a senior zoning planner in Bloomington, His affection for DePauw was contagious; listening to him talk about the Ind., echoes the thoughts of all of us when he notes, “Robert Copeland’s school was listening to the voice of opportunity. College, he seemed to generosity opened many opportunities to me. Without his scholarship, I say, was what you make of it, but DePauw gives you the chance to make would not have been able to attend DePauw. I would not have received it an unforgettable experience. the same scholastic or cultural experiences at any other university.” Knowing Mr. Copeland made me want to succeed, to try and live Those of us who were fortunate enough to know Bob Copeland are up to all that the scholarship offered. That feeling has lasted in the nearly saddened by his passing. We embrace his vision and endeavor to build 10 years since my graduation from DePauw, as has my affection for the upon it. Most of all, we remain truly grateful to this warm, wonderful school – something that has extended through my family, as both of my person who has given us so much. siblings are recent DePauw graduates.

NEWS of THE UNIVERSITY Distinguished speakers involve alumni and friends in DePauw Discourse on election issues Second annual DePauw Discourse scheduled Sept. 15-17, 2005 he first-ever DePauw Discourse symposium enabled alumni and friends to engage an accomplished gathering of celebrated alumni and guests in discussions about some of the most pertinent public issues of the day. DePauw Discourse 2004: Issues for America on Sept. 16-18 featured alumni Lee Hamilton ’52, former congressman and vice chair of the 9/11 Commission, and ABC News special correspondent John McWethy ’69, as well as guests Ambassador L. Paul Bremer III, former presidential Tenvoy to Iraq, and Roger Wilkins, Pulitzer Prize winner, civil rights leader and political historian. More than 100 alumni and friends joined students and faculty members in substantive discussions spanning national security, civil rights, the economy, the media, and America’s role in the world. The new program enabled alumni to “go back to school” and learn from presentations and face-to-face conversations with renowned leaders in public service and journalism. Craig R. Stokely ’67, like many other alumni, took advantage of the opportunity, saying, “DePauw Discourse rep- resents a wonderful value-added offering that drew me back to DePauw for only the second time since I graduated.” DePauw Discourse, which will be an annual event and is already scheduled for Sept. 15-17, 2005, developed from an idea of Joyce Taglauer Green ’75 and planning by the Washington C. DePauw Society Executive Committee that she chairs. Looking back on the weekend, Green said, “DePauw Discourse 2004: Issues for America was an incredible two and one half days filled with different points of view DEPAUW DISCOURSE: and insights into what our nation faces today.” The symposium was special to members of the DePauw family because it was domi- SSUES nated by so many alumni who have achieved distinction in public life. Reflecting on I the alumni showcased in DePauw Discourse 2004, Donald L. Hamilton ’57 remarked, for 2004 “I have never been more PROUD to be a DePauw alum than I was during the entire weekend! The DePauw experience is still growing – even for a 1957 grad!” AMERICA Ambassador L.

  • Goodwill to Receive $6.95 Million Grant from Lilly Endowment Inc
    April 1, 2021 For Immediate Release Contact: Ivan Cropper, Vice President, Marketing & Communications 317-417-0652 [email protected] Goodwill to Receive $6.95 Million Grant from Lilly Endowment Inc. Expanded re-entry program is expected to reduce recidivism in Indianapolis INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. — Goodwill of Central & Southern Indiana announced today that it is the grateful recipient of a substantial $6.95 million grant from Lilly Endowment Inc., which will enable the not-for-profit to expand its successful re-entry program, New Beginnings. Every year, thousands of Hoosiers are released from incarceration and return to Marion County. One of their greatest challenges is successfully joining the labor market at a level that pays a living and family-sustaining wage. Consequently, this population often lives in poverty and in high-crime areas. “The goal of New Beginnings is to transition participants from entry-level work at Goodwill to a skilled, in-demand career in the community,” said Trelles Evans, director of re-entry services at Goodwill. “With funding from Lilly Endowment, Goodwill can expand the program’s offerings as well as the number of individuals served.” Launched by Goodwill in 2011, New Beginnings provides employment, educational training and coaching for recently incarcerated individuals through on-the-job training and classroom learning. Participants are supported through a number of wraparound services, including financial literacy, access to health care, referrals to stable housing and help developing a support system that will sustain them well beyond the program. “Until now, Goodwill has only been able to serve a small fraction of the population eligible for New Beginnings,” said Kent A.

Driven by the rivalry between modern warfare and militia tradition, the role as well as the ideology of the militia institution fitfully progressed beyond its seventeenth century origins. Ohio’s militia, the third largest in the country at the time, strove to modernize while preserving its relevance. Like many states in the early republic, Ohio’s militia started out as a sporadic group of reluctant citizens with little military competency. The War of the Rebellion exposed the serious flaws in the militia system, but also demonstrated why armed citizen-soldiers were necessary to the defense of the state. After the war ended, the militia struggled, but developed into a capable military organization through state-imposed reform.
