  • The Impact of Retro Stadiums on Major League Baseball Franchises
    ABSTRACT MENEFEE, WILLIAM CHADWICK. The Impact of Retro Stadiums on Major League Baseball Franchises. (Under the direction of Dr. Judy Peel). The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of “retro” stadiums on professional baseball franchises. Retro stadiums, baseball-exclusive facilities modeled on classic architectural designs of the past, were built at an increasing rate beginning in 1992 with Baltimore’s Camden Yards. This study analyzed changes in franchises’ attendance, winning percentage, revenue and team value in the seasons following a team’s relocation to a retro stadium. Retro stadiums were found to positively increase attendance, revenue and team value for franchises at a higher rate than teams that did not build retro stadiums. An analysis of these variables and a discussion of the results for all individual franchises that constructed retro stadiums during the 1992-2004 period are presented in this study.

  • 2014 JC Connect
    2013 - 2014 Annual Report CONNECT SRJC student in Automotive Technology Program 1 CONNECT Message from the Chair Dear SRJC supporters, alumni and friends, On behalf of the Santa Rosa Junior College Foundation Board, I would like to thank you for your support of SRJC students and to highlight once more the difference your contribution can make to a student in need. For nearly a century, Santa Rosa Junior College has changed the lives of generations who build their futures on the solid foundation of education. The commitment SRJC’s faculty, staff and administration make to student success is always increased by the support we receive from our local community. Students of all ages attend SRJC to find their way to professional achievement, prepare to transfer to four- year universities, or train for vocational positions. Too often, they are overwhelmed by financial needs, working several jobs, studying full-time, and trying to make ends meet. In 2013-2014, 37% of students received financial aid, Board of Governors fee waivers or scholarships. The Scholarship Office receives moving essays from students talking about many years of struggle between the desire to go to school and the necessity of meeting a budget. Hardship can be seen at every age: the College has young students who are homeless and do homework while living in a shelter, students in their 40s and 50s who need to make a career change, as well as first generation students who never thought possible a higher education because their parents and grandparents did not have one. Charlie Briones is one example of a struggling student.

  • Paul Budenbender, Epoxy Coating Specialists, Onaga
    Budenbender (epoxy) – part 1 This is Kansas Profile. I'm Ron Wilson, director of the Huck Boyd National Institute for Rural Development at Kansas State University. Let’s go to Kauffman Stadium, home of the defending world champion Kansas City Royals. Note how the concourse floor is smooth, clean, and beautiful. That’s because this floor was coated with a special treatment, produced by a company with ties to rural Kansas. It’s today’s Kansas Profile. Paul Budenbender is co-owner of Epoxy Coating Specialists, or ECS, which coated the concourses at Kauffman Stadium as well as floors and walls in many other facilities across the country. Paul’s family has roots in Pottawatomie County, where his ancestors homesteaded near Fostoria. Paul’s dad went to K-State and then worked for the Corps of Engineers, which eventually transferred him to the head office in Kansas City. Paul grew up at Shawnee but spent summers on his grandparent’s farm. Tragically, Paul’s father passed away from cancer at age 48. Paul went to work for a painting and flooring contractor in Olathe. He worked there 16 years and met his wife Pam. Paul’s work involved the emerging use of epoxy to paint floors and walls. In 1995, Paul and a man named Dave Schloegel and some other friends decided to go out on their own. They created Epoxy Coating Specialists, or ECS. Today, ECS is a leading installer of industrial polymer floorings, coatings, and linings. These are essentially hard epoxy resins that can coat a floor or wall to create a hard, clean, durable, waterproof surface.
