than 17,600 undergraduate and gradu-

ate students today, WCU is thriving.

During halftime of the home football game on September 21, West Chester’s Incomparable Golden Rams Marching Band became the first band from a Division II school to be awarded the John Philip Sousa Foundation’s prestigious Sudler Trophy. Known as the “Heisman Trophy of the col-

legiate band world,” the award recognizes bands demonstrating the highest musical standards and innovative marching routines over a period of

years. On hand to accept the trophy were four generations of band directors dating back to 1968 (L to R): Andrew Yozviak ’91, current director of bands and marching band director from 2007-2018; Professor Adam Gumble ’05, M’16, current marching band director; James Wells ’54, march- ing band director from 1968–1992 and the Wells School of Music’s co-namesake; and John Villella ’76, M’82, current vice president for University Affairs and chief of staff and marching band director from 1992–2007. The trophy measures exactly 22½ inches from base to tip — precisely the size of a standard 8 to 5 step in marching. It will be on display in the Wells School of Music for the next two years.

places the University ahead of Penn State, Temple University, University of Pittsburgh, as well as others. Equally as important, our outstanding retention rate and six-year graduation rate far exceed the national average. A constant forward motion propels WCU; it is relentless as it moves with a determination, purpose, and direction that is fueled by our resolve to help students be successful. In this context, our access mission is one of the many factors that

drives our University. We make it a practice to identify ways to help students over-

come impediments, so they can cross the finish line and graduate. The fall issue of

West Chester University Magazine is dedicated to honoring an access mission that exists for the express purpose of supporting students, acting as advocates, and,

ultimately, making anything quite possible. I thank all of you for helping to activate

this access mission in ways that are truly benefiting generations of WCU students.

Of the generous gift, $40,000 will provide meal swipes for students; $40,000 will support book scholarships and gifts-in-kind from the WCU Campus Store; and $40,000 will be awarded to students in the form of monetary micro awards. All awards will be managed by the WCU Office of Financial Aid.

Climbing more than 30 spots from its

position last year, West Chester is #418 on

Forbes’ 2019 ranking of Top Colleges in the

country. Note the Forbes editors, “We in-

clude just 15% of the 4,300 degree-granting

postsecondary institutions in the U.S., so appearing here at all is an indication that a school meets a high standard.”
“SSI understands that not all students enter a college or university with everything that is needed to be successful,” said SSI Chair Carrozza. “SSI stands ready to ensure that these students have what they need to fuel their academic goals. We admire these students for their perseverance and determination, and we are honored to be able to support their commitment to academic excellence.” PSECU is equally supportive. “We are continually looking for ways to make a difference in the lives of others,” said PSECU University Development Director Mike Verotsky. “This funding is one such example — it will help promising students achieve their educational goals and, hopefully, will inspire others to do the same.”

“West Chester University is committed to doing whatever it can to remove barriers that may impede a student’s ability to be successful,” said

Fiorentino. “We feel fortunate to be able to align with partners who feel very much the same. SSI and PSECU continue to meet our students’ needs in very real ways. Their efforts will help guarantee student success on a multitude of immediate levels, and we are truly grateful for the generosity of resources exhibited by both entities.”
