  • Self Study Report
    Self Study Report Prepared for the Middle States Commission on Higher Education February 1, 2013 by CAZENOVIA COLLEGE Cazenovia, New York 13035 Prepared by the Self-Study Steering Committee EXECUTIVE SUMMARY “At Cazenovia, you will find the best of everything an undergraduate college has to offer. Students become part of an intellectual journey, one in which the Cazenovia College experience takes them farther than they ever dreamed of going.” President Mark Tierno BACKGROUND Cazenovia College was first accredited in 1961 and reaffirmed its accreditation in summer 2003 and again in summer 2008 with the periodic review process. At the time of the last self-study process in 2002-03, the College was recovering from administrative transition and budget challenges. To aid in that recovery, the College chose to create a five-year strategic plan as a self-study special topic. Adding to the challenge of aligning the accreditation standards with strategic plan goals/objectives, the College was one of the first Middle States’ institutions to approach a self-study utilizing the newly revised Characteristics of Excellence. The Commission acted to require a Monitoring Report to follow up on several recommendations by the evaluation team related to financial matters and assessment. That report was accepted by the Middle States Commission without a campus visit in November 2005. Throughout the 2006-07 year and into fall 2007, College constituents met regularly to create the current 2007-2012 Strategic Plan (now extended to fall 2013). That significant planning effort involved over 90 participants contributing through membership on workgroups and committees, document review, and advisory functions.

  • 180 Methodist Women Missionaries in Bulgaria and ITALY Paul W
    Methodist History, 55:3 (April 2017) MethodiSt WoMen MiSSionaRieS IN BULGARIA AND Italy Paul W. Chilcote and Ulrike Schuler In a previous article entitled “Methodist Bible Women in Bulgaria and Italy,” in the October 2016/January 2017 double-issue of Methodist History, we explored the evangelistic work of these amazing pioneers during the last quarter of the nineteenth century and in the first decade of the twentieth cen- tury.1 In that analysis of their contribution to mission in this context, we em- phasized the importance of the contextual dynamic, the ecumenical nature of their endeavors, their networking with women and children, and their au- thentic witness through personal and incarnational evangelism. While these women laid the foundation for mission among women and girls in Bulgaria and Italy within the broader context of the work of the Methodist Episcopal Church (MEC), they were soon joined by Woman’s Foreign Missionary So- ciety (WFMS) missionaries from the United States and other countries. These second wave pioneers—highly educated and deeply pious wom- en—quickly moved into positions of leadership and supervision, consolidat- ing the efforts of their sisters in the faith. As was the case with regard to the stories of the Bible Women, information concerning these WFMS mission- aries “had to be teased out, pulled from below, dragged through the cracks,” since “their work was little recorded, little regarded, and little known.”2 Ob- 1 In this paper we continue reflections on discoveries made possible through a Bell Scholarship granted by Drew University in Madison, New Jersey, related to Methodist women pioneers.
