    ORGANIZED CHARITY AND THE CIVIC IDEAL IN INDIANAPOLIS 1879-1922 Katherine E. Badertscher Submitted to the faculty of the University Graduate School in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy, Indiana University May 2015 Accepted by the Graduate Faculty, Indiana University, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ______________________________ Dwight F. Burlingame, Ph.D., Chair Doctoral Committee ______________________________ Robert G. Barrows, Ph.D. March 6, 2015 ______________________________ Nancy Marie Robertson, Ph.D. ______________________________ Philip V. Scarpino, Ph.D. ii Acknowledgments My thanks begin with my doctoral committee. Dwight Burlingame advised me throughout my entire program, chose the perfect readings for me in our dissertation seminar, helped me shape the project, and read each chapter promptly and thoughtfully. His steadfast belief in my scholarship and his infinite kindness have been invaluable. Phil Scarpino and Bob Barrows led the seminars during which my dissertation idea took shape. Nancy Robertson challenged me to look at the work from many different angles and suggested a veritable treasure trove of scholarship upon which to draw. All their questions, comments, guidance, and encouragement have helped my work more than mere words can express. My colleagues in the doctoral program and students in the undergraduate program provided unwavering support as I lovingly talked about my research, “my organization,” and “my time period.” I especially thank Barbara Duffy, who chose the Charity Organization Society of Indianapolis (1879-1883) for her History of Philanthropy doctoral seminar research project. I enjoyed talking about “our women,” sharing our emerging ideas, swapping sources, and basking in one another’s “Eureka!” moments as we made one connection after another.

    Indiana University Lilly Family School of Philanthropy ANNUAL REPORT July 1, 2014 – June 30, 2015 philanthropy.iupui.edu A Message from Inspiring Change the Dean What’s next? It’s a question I’ve been asked frequently during my first months as dean Amir Pasic of the world’s first school of philanthropy. The answers are exhilarating, in part because the past year has been one of rapid growth, change, and innovation, paving the way for the possibilities that animate us going forward. A record number of graduates completed our Philanthropic Studies programs. Groundbreaking research projected the future of giving, and international partnerships from Berlin to China expanded understanding of philanthropy globally. New initiatives by Lake Institute on Faith & Giving and the Women’s Philanthropy Institute revealed insights to aid congregations, donors, and nonprofits, and The Fund Raising School equipped them to fulfill their important missions. Our greatest strength remains our talent. Our faculty, our staff, and especially our students are the way we improve the world. We are inspired by them, just as we hope to inspire them to make meaningful change. Alumni already are achieving great impact, improving the human condition across the country and across borders around the globe. Anticipating achievements and opportunities to come, we are first and foremost dedicated to our students’ success, redoubling our commitment to Mission Statement them and to all we serve. As we grow, we continue to benefit from the expertise of The Indiana University colleagues who have transitioned into new roles and we thank Dwight Burlingame, Lilly Family School of Tim Seiler, and Bill Enright for their ongoing service.
