From the President To our alumni and friends, People often have an emotional, spiritual connection to their alma mater. The college years are a time for growth and maturing, a rite of passage to adulthood and citizenship. Many remember the college experience as the time when they encountered new ideas, developed their Want to know how to help values, and transformed into the person they are today. In the fall of 2020, Neumann University launched the first comprehensive alumni attitudinal survey in its history, and the results reflect the transformational memories that are so common among college graduates. Most of the questions asked our alumni to rate their experience as a student, their satisfaction Neumann this year? with their education, or their post-graduate loyalty to the university. We are thankful that those ratings are overwhelmingly positive — 95.3 percent rate their experience as a student as excellent (66.9%) or good (28.4%). The real insight about the impact of a Catholic Franciscan education, however, is most apparent from the results of open-ended survey questions. At several points in the survey instrument, alumni were provided the opportunity to offer personal comments rather than simply selecting a rating on a five-point scale. The comments made by our alumni capture the deep influence that our Franciscan mission, our RISES values, and our commitment to blend faith and reason have had during our 56-year history. Here are a few of the most moving: Neumann helped wake me up to the value I place on honesty, genuineness and spirituality. I have valued the words of Francis, “Preach the gospel at all times. If necessary, use words,” since the first time I heard them. I admire and take to heart the Catholic Franciscan values that I learned at Neumann. I went to get a degree, and I found a family. These sentiments, expressed by our alumni in their own words, underscore the abiding and essential value of a Catholic Franciscan education. The Catholic Intellectual tradition, framed by our Franciscan core values, requires us not simply to impart knowledge but to go beyond, by engaging with our students in meaningful dialogue, prayer, acts of service, and moments for critical reflection. In their survey comments, our alumni have provided evidence that we are doing just that. Dr. Chris Everett Domes President Winter 2021 3 campuscampus AroundAroundNew Online Program for K-12 Teachers In October, Neumann began offering a K-12 Online Instruction Diptee Pathak program to provide teachers with the knowledge, awareness, and Kate Jester and skills to effectively design, deliver, and assess K-12 academic learning content in hybrid and virtual settings.
