Dear alumni and friends,

Campbellsville University is 100 years old, and we want you to join us in the Centennial Celebration, which will be held throughout the 2006-07 academic year. The theme for the year-long celebration is taken from our Centennial Campaign, “Transforming a New Generation: A Journey of Faith.” Christian faith and commitment to learning were the cornerstones on which the school was founded a century ago. Today, it is with that same commitment that we find dedicated Dr. Michael V. Carter faculty, staff and coaches working faithfully to provide the finest in Christian higher education. Campbellsville University’s history can be found in two beautiful volumes that commemorate our 100 years of Christian education. The first volume details the rich life and workings of Russell Creek Academy “ I think you will and moves to Campbellsville University today. It is authored by Dr. J.

Both volumes are available in the University enjoy this year Barnes and Noble Bookstore located in the Davenport Student Commons Building. For information on how to purchase these books, see the Centennial insert. Both are a tribute to the men and women who have as we reflect sacrificed to bring Campbellsville University to this point in her remarkable history. Campbellsville University commissioned artist Billie Sue Kibbons, a 1975 graduate, to produce a Centennial painting of the university. The painting will be unveiled at the opening chapel/convocation and Centennial on and offer kickoff Wednesday, Aug. 30. Commemorative prints will be made available of the painting. It was in 2001 that Campbellsville University took bold steps to create a new Strategic Plan based on an gratitude for updated Mission Statement and Core Values. Out of this plan a Centennial Campaign was realized and embraced by the Board of Trustees, faculty, staff, alumni, friends and students. Today, we have completed Phase I, a $35 million campaign, and have realized that a second phase must be pursued. In January 2006, the Board all of those of Trustees voted to expand the campaign an additional $15 million in order to achieve the educational goals that are a must for students as they prepare for graduate study, enter the global marketplace and seek to who have gone follow Jesus Christ. We feel this commitment to Phase II is essential if Campbellsville University is to continue her path of preparing faithful Christian servant-leaders who are willing to make a difference for Jesus Christ in our world. I hope everyone will pray for and become involved in Phase II of our campaign. before us.” This special Centennial issue of the Campbellsvillian catalogs many of the activities and events that will take place throughout this year. I hope you will attend as many of these as possible. A special series of Centennial gifts and commemorative items will be available as we celebrate this special time in our history. DR. MICHAEL V. CARTER I think you will enjoy this year as we reflect on and offer gratitude for all of those who have gone before us. PRESIDENT Our Centennial Celebration only happens once! This is a special time to celebrate the accomplishments of our graduates and to appreciate the Christian mission of Campbellsville University. Our bright future would not be possible without our rich past. As we enter into this time of celebration may we do so with a deep sense of appreciation. I hope you will pray for the students who are attending Campbellsville University this year. This fall over 2,200 will take classes.

It’s a sports theme from years past in this issue of the Campbellsvillian. We’re showing sports pictures from earlier days of Campbellsville University’s history as we begin the celebration of our 100th birthday. Are these former football players? Among the events scheduled during the year will be a reception, titled “100 Years of Sports” Saturday, Oct. 7 at 5 p.m. in the Winters Dining Hall during CU’s Centennial Homecoming. Hope you can attend! If you know any of the people in these pictures, we would be glad to hear from you.

This group of baseball players represented Russell Creek Academy.

These students, most likely cheerleaders, are wearing letter sweaters supporting Campbellsville.

This picture is of two students who were voted Most Athletic. If you can guess who the students are, you’ll win a CU Centennial T-shirt.
