WINTER 2017-2018 3 Alumni Make Hop to it Beer a Career

To make beer, Danny Ranville explains, there are four basic ingredients: grain, hops, yeast and water.

To make beer your livelihood, add one more ingredient: entrepreneurship.

Danny Ranville is co-owner of Bière de Mac Brew Works in Mackinaw City.

Danny Ranville, '08, co-owner “We were selling out of our beer “It’s been very of Bière de Mac Brew Works in faster than we could make it by Mackinaw City, Mich., is one of February. We said, ‘Wow, what’s successful. In the first several Northwood alumni who are going to happen in the summer?’” seven months, we tapping into the booming industry of craft beer.

Mike Gross (’03) has a similar story. “A buddy and I were at a brewery almost double the seating “Beer is cool. And kind of in southwest Michigan. It was capacity glamourous. And sexy.” packed, on a Tuesday at 4 o’clock,” . Gross recalled. “It started us on this long discussion about business Owning a brewery is not the only On Jan. 3, Ranville and his father opportunities.

We have close to 300 breweries in Michigan Mike Gross is co-owner now. It’s competitive, but it’s of Silver Harbor Brewing Company in St. Joseph. not cut-throat competition. Everyone gets along. It’s a lot of fun to be a part of.”

George Boler (’10) has a similar role with New Belgium Brewing Company, which began 27 years ago in Colorado and now has a second brewery in North Carolina. Boler works with nine different beer distributors in a Michigan territory that stretches from Monroe to the Thumb and also includes the Upper Peninsula. It is a business that continues to grow across Michigan, which brings challenges of its own. “The hardest part with so many craft beers out there is getting customers to try your beer,” Boler said. “We are always working to figure out how to showcase a wide variety of our styles of beer.” You could say that beer made an honest man out of Boler.

“Midway through my college career, I didn’t know what I was going to do professionally,” Boler said. “It’s nice to see that there are Northwood alum George different options available, Boler, left, a sales rep for New Belgium Brewing and lots of ways to use a Company, raises a glass Northwood education.” with Roy Moore, owner of Ashley’s Bar and Grill in southeast Michigan.

WINTER 2017-2018 5 Ignite YOUR ENGINES 54th Auto Show Revs Up Midland

Allison Brown didn’t mind making a monkey of herself to call attention to the Jaguar and Land Rover automobiles she was tasked with promoting.

Music from the “Tarzan” movie soundtrack played in the background, faux foliage sprouted up around the vehicles, and a hidden special effects machine sprayed out a cloud of primordial mist. Now in its 54th year, the Northwood University International Auto Show (NUIAS) continues to be a signature event for the university and the Midland community. This year more than 65 manufacturers and 500 vehicles were on display the weekend of Oct. 6, 2017. With the theme “Ignite,” the 2017 show attracted more than 60,000 visitors. An entirely student-run event, the teams manage everything from planning to logistics to booth design to visitor interaction.

6 NORTHWOOD IDEA MAGAZINE www.northwood.edu/idea This year’s general chair was Chuck Elledge, a senior from Coal City, Ill., studying automotive marketing and management.

“I got the awesome privilege of overseeing the operation of the auto show,” Elledge said. “You have to think of everything, and then you have to deal with anything. And it’s never the things you think that will go wrong that go wrong.”

Nick Dubs was captain of the BMW team. He and the other 14 team members went with a dignified look for their display. Students wore suits as they greeted visitors, and Sinatra songs played in the background. The main attraction was a high-tech BMW i8 hybrid, on loan from a dealer in Iowa. “This is perfect training for the real world,” said Dubs, a sophomore from from Owendale, Mich., studying automotive marketing and management. “It’s like being Homecoming a manager of a dealership. We’re not allowed to sell a vehicle, but if people are interested we can give them a dealer’s information.” Two-thirds of this year’s Northwood students took part in Victory the auto show in one way or another, Elledge said, further proof that the impact of the auto show extends far beyond Tops Off Weekend the event itself or the thousands of people it touches. The Homecoming football game is the icing on the cake of October’s Auto Show weekend in Midland, and the icing is always a little sweeter when that game is a victory, as it was this year. Northwood’s dramatic, come-from-behind, 29-24 victory over Michigan Technological University left the Timberwolf faithful in great spirits, and topped off a weekend which also saw home victories for the Northwood men’s soccer, women’s soccer, and volleyball teams.

WINTER 2017-2018 19 Donor Honor Roll Dear Friends of Northwood: As a graduate of Northwood University I was fortunate to learn from Dr. Dale M. Haywood whose belief in a free-enterprise system could be applied to almost any topic, even philanthropy. He avoided the term “giving back” because it implied the donor had taken something away. That lesson has stuck with me, and now with Dr. Haywood in mind, thank you for “adding back” to Northwood University and choosing to make a positive difference! You’ll notice a great number of individuals, corporations, and foundations have supported Northwood University in the past year. I hope it is as exciting for you to read as it is for me to report. The generous support of so many has a very real impact on our mission of preparing a new generation of business and community leaders for the challenges of the modern world. It is only with your continued charity and the benevolence of others that Northwood thrives. New this year to the donor honor roll are infographics and quotes from students sharing how philanthropic investments benefit them. You’ll also note that we’ve tried to make it easier to find your name, and to acknowledge the countless ways each individual has been involved. Names are now listed alphabetically, and colored stars show membership in different giving societies. With each day we are inventing new ways to honor your support. I hope you enjoy the change. It is my privilege on behalf of everyone at Northwood University to share our sincere gratitude and heartfelt thanks for your investment!

Sincerely yours, Justin W. Marshall, Vice President of Advancement and Alumni Relations

Vogt ‘94 ENDOWED CHAIRS Mr. Jason vonReichbauer Mr. and Mrs. Gregory ‘04 Vos Securing funding for endowed professorships and endowed chairs is Mr. & Mrs. Dan Vuich Jr. vital to Northwood’s future. Earning an endowed professorship or chair Mrs. Lucille Vuich at Northwood University sends a strong message. It is how we ensure W.T. Glasgow, Inc. that we will have a highly qualified faculty in perpetuity. It’s an excellent Mary J. Wackerle ‘09 way to attract outstanding faculty and an important mechanism for Mr. Thomas H. Wagar ‘75 recognizing accomplishments. Mr. Thomas J. Wagar ‘85 Margaret M. ‘91 and Mike Wagner On a practical level, these endowments support the salaries of top Mr. Paul C. Wagner ‘72 scholars and can even include assistance with travel and other Mr. and Mrs. Mack D. ‘72 Walcutt aspects of research. To the faculty members who receive an endowed Walker Cadillac Buick GMC professorship, however, there is an added layer of meaning. Mr. Aaron Walker ‘04 Mr. Fred Walker ‘05 Kristin D. Poulos-Walker ‘96 and ENDOWED SCHOLARSHIPS Jeremy L. ‘11 Walker Ms. Jordan A. Walker ‘15 Private donor scholarships are among the most important investments Mr. Mark D. Walker ‘09 you can make in future leaders. These scholarships are a vote of Mr. Phillip H. Walker ‘06 confidence in Northwood’s educational philosophy and are proof Ms. Ruby P. Walker ‘96 of a commitment to assisting the financial needs of qualified and Faye Ann ‘81 and John Walko motivated students. Wallace Landscaping Mr. Aaron Wallace ‘04 To establish an endowed scholarship, a minimum of $20,000 is Mr. Charles T. Wallace ‘79 required. Larger gifts are suggested to generate a more substantial William M. Wallace award. The corpus of an endowed scholarship may be added to at Michelle R. ‘91 and Gregory G. ‘91 Waller, C.P. A . any time. For the past few years, we have awarded approximately four Mr. James Waller percent of the earnings. Thus, a gift of $25,000 generates a $1,000 Tony Wallerich annual scholarship. The donor may name the scholarship in honor of an Ms. Aimee Walraven individual, family, or organization. Ms. Noelle Walsh Ms. Tammy Walsh Mr. and Mrs. Chris E. ‘67 Walters
