This pattern of support has continued for our entire 152-year history. During the early 1960’s the community assisted in raising funds for the ‘Lincoln the Student’ statue that resides in front of the McKinstry Library. In addition, volunteers and fire department members came out to fight the fire that engulfed the Administration Building sometime after midnight in 1969. Later, others donated funds to build the Lincoln Center which houses the Athletic Complex and Lincoln Heritage Museum.

“And then, of course, there are the students,” added Morley. “I figure that if this gift can change just one life, dramatically and for the better, it will all have been worth it.”

“This will absolutely make a significant difference in the lives of students and in the future of the College,” Lincoln College President David Gerlach said. “We deeply appreciate Judy’s generosity and are committed to finding the best possible opportunity to pay tribute to a couple who represented the best of this community.” Amanda and Art ’36 Bree Morley’s relationship with Lincoln College began shortly after the passing of her father and subsequently of her mother. At the suggestion of her husband, Judy Morley and husband Bob Williams, Grand Soirée she established the “Arthur W. and Amanda Bree Memorial Scholarship” in 2002. There have been 15 recipients since then, each one exceptional, says Judy, not only academically, but in Judith Bree Morley, originally of Lincoln, recently announced her intention extracurricular activities as well. to provide a legacy gift to Lincoln College to be used to fund a “substantial naming opportunity” in honor of her parents Arthur and Amanda Bree. “It is deeply satisfying to think I have played even the smallest part in the success of these students, and the appreciation I have “I have been fortunate to have acquired a financial base that should received from them and from their parents, for even this modest sustain me through retirement,” says Judy, “and my conservative Lincoln stipend, is heartwarming,” she said. upbringing is probably responsible for my need to manage assets wisely not only in my lifetime, but thereafter as well.

The college has survived wars, Meeting students who have earned the Bree scholarships and the ‘Great Depression,’ and numerous recessions,” Morley explained. seeing the impact it has had on their education gave her a taste of what could be accomplished, she says. A key goal was to honor her parents, Arthur and Amanda Bree. She also believes that in some ways she has benefitted as much “They were part of the fabric of Lincoln: They met here, made their from the scholarship as the students. living here, and raised their family here.

“The addition of these four bachelor’s degree programs is essential to the growth of the College and the diversity of degree options we can provide our students,” said Dr. David Gerlach, President of Lincoln College. “Students will gain theoretical knowledge in their classes as well as practical experience through community projects and internships, making our students very marketable to future employers.”

The addition of the degree programs is timely as the College purchased apartments at the north end of campus earlier this month in preparation for housing additional students.

The College anticipates adding an additional 100 students during the fall 2017 semester on top of this year’s already record-setting year.

New students and transfer students can select one of the new majors from the College’s offerings during the admission process. Current students can declare or change their major with their academic advisor.

Program descriptions for the new majors are:

The Bachelor of Arts in Community and Human Services is an interdisciplinary program preparing students for graduate study in social work or careers in service to others in individual and community settings. Students will take courses in sociology, psychology, and community and human services to integrate knowledge and understanding of the socio-economic culture which community and human services are delivered. In addition to a junior year practicum, the program culminates in an internship with a human services agency to provide students with experience in applying theory to professional practice.

The Bachelor of Science in Conservation Biology is an interdisciplinary program, challenging students to utilize skills and knowledge from a variety of scientific fields in order to address complex environmental issues. This degree is grounded in natural science and mathematics. Students will engage in student- generated, on-going research projects utilizing the Creekside Outdoor Center for Environmental Education.

RENOVATION UPDATE

Renovation is under way on University Hall, thanks to generous donations from Pat Carroll ’61 and other alumni and friends. Masonry restoration and tuck- pointing started last fall and will resume as spring weather allows. Next steps include installing new energy-efficient replica windows on three sides of the first and second floors (and eventually the upper floors as well) and repairing the first flight of the staircase. The wood-framed windows on the front (south face) will be restored to preserve the historic facade. (Fully restoring all the windows was determined to be cost prohibitive. By combining restored and replica windows, both goals of historic preservation and cost-effective energy efficiency can be met.) Watch the REGISTER ONLINE! IT’S FAST, EASY & SECURE!

President-elect and Mrs. Lincoln were in attendance, greeting and posing for photos with guests. Mr. Lincoln shared a few words from his upcoming first inaugural address before the dinner. After dinner, there was a live and silent auction featuring a wide variety of items from artwork and airline miles to a five-course Greek dinner for 10 and a Tennessee Civil War history tour.

QUIET ON THE SET! AND ACTION! Students and faculty from LC’s Theatre and Radio, TV, and New Media programs spent a very cold, windy February morning at Creekside shooting a special scene for the fall play “Abe Lincoln in Illinois.” The show, which ran on the Johnston Center main stage for two weekends in February, was a collaborative project with both LC students and community members in the cast and crew. Using the Pete Fredericks Log Cabin as a backdrop, the scene was projected onto the large screen on the JC stage at the opening of Act II and featured special guest cameo performances by Lincoln Heritage Museum Director and LC Theatre alumnus Tom McLaughlin ’94, Museum Assistant Director Anne Moseley, and LC President David Gerlach among others. and household items for eachofthesethree timeperiods. ways oflife inCentral Illinois,includingsmallgardens, shelters, encounter outdoor, life-size, three-dimensional exhibits ofprevious A “timetraveler” along thePeoples ofthePast Boardwalk will Mississippian Native American Indiancultures. history, showcasing Pioneer, Kickapoo Native American Indian,and This phasewilltraverse approximately 800feet and800years of terminate attheWibbenOverlook ofSugarCreek. one sideandtheuplandforest ofSugarCreek ontheother, and a footbridge, continue along theboundaryofagricultural landon around thePioneerarea andtraverse atributary stream across Phase OneofthePeoples ofthePast Boardwalk willskirt Cabin atthePioneerArea neartheentryinto theforest.
