Parents are asking more and more about their return on an investment in higher education, according to Lynk. “Most parents are stretching their resources to send their children to college. They could spend $30,000 to purchase a new car. Instead, for $30,000, they’re paying for a year at Colby-Sawyer. They want to know what they’re getting for that investment,” Lynk says. The Parent and Family Relations Office will serve as a central point for communication with parents, who may have questions about college policies and procedures.

Students and faculty returned to campus this fall to find the steel frame of the Curtis L. Ivey Science Center rising up on the south side of campus against the backdrop of Mt. Kearsarge. Construction began last spring, and by next fall the two-story, 32,000-square-foot science center will open for classes. “It’s exciting to see the science center come to life and to think about how it will transform our educational environment in the sciences,” said Doug Atkins, vice president for administration. The Ivey Science Center will house the Natural Sciences and the Community and Environmental Studies programs, along with classrooms, offices, laboratories, and a 180-seat auditorium. The building was funded in large part by Curtis L. and Doris W. Ivey, who contributed a major gift for science education in memory of their children, Curtis L. Ivey Jr., and Elizabeth Ivey Jurgenson, both of whom passed away in recent years. The Ivey family lives in Florida, but main-

Continuing a Tradition of Philanthropy

Class of 2003 Senior Gift Campaign

Each year a group of student volunteers leads the Senior Gift Campaign. Participation in the campaign is one way for graduating seniors to show appreciation for, and demonstrate pride in, the quality of their Colby-Sawyer College experience. Earlier this year, Karissa Pignone stated, “We hope to get 100 percent participation from our classmates, regardless of the size of the donation. As all the committee members are involved actively around campus, we wanted to ensure that everyone has a chance to participate in this wonderful gift from the Class of 2003. Our priority is to make people aware of the campaign, as well as to give them the knowledge of how it works and what it’s all about.” When asked about her involvement, Kori Johnson remarked, “I became involved with the senior gift committee because I think that giving back is an important tradition at Colby-Sawyer. It’s one I wanted to contribute to and to raise awareness about. I think that by making my class We salute the class of 2003 and the efforts of the Senior Gift Campaign Committee for their work on behalf of the college.

FALL/WINTER 2003 9 FEATURE STORY

A tall ship racing under full sail across a billowing-cloud horizon is a wondrous sight to see and a marvel of design and teamwork. Perhaps you've seen these ships with their sleek hulls and complicated array of sails, ropes, and pulleys. In watching the crew of a tall ship scurrying here and there, one has to wonder how each person knows exactly what to do and when to do it. There are analogies between the mechanics of running a tall ship and the running of a successful college, which also requires top notch personnel in key positions. At Colby-Sawyer there are five members of the senior staff who report directly to the president, and their jobs are challenging, complex, and critical to the success of the college, especially in these times of world financial uncertainty. In the following pages you will meet the senior staff and see how each does their work as part of the Colby-Sawyer management team with intelligence and diligence, intent on maintaining the smooth sailing that can come only as a result of...

FALL/WINTER 2003 11 “Everybody likes to be associated with a winner, and Colby-Sawyer is definitely a winner.” Wendy Beckemeyer, Vice President for Enrollment Management and Dean of Admissions

When asked about the college’s ongoing success in recruitment, Wendy states that “we all want to invest in things we perceive as valuable. So, no matter what the price of college, finding a place that is going to appreciate one’s son or daughter, while at the same time providing a valuable learning experience, seems incredibly important to the parents of our applicants.” With costs continually rising and the economy continuing to drag like an anchor, Wendy states that, “the adjustment we have had to make is to explain the value of a Colby-Sawyer education early in the admission process. This is a positive because families do not have to think about the value of a Colby- Sawyer education when it comes time for them to engage in their financial aid discussions. They have already decided that it is worth it. Because the family and the Wendy Beckemeyer (second from left) feels the success of the Admissions Office student already know this is where they want to be, at that is partially due to a seasoned staff that includes (l to r) Enrollment Operations Manager Jodi Bonewald, Parent and Family Relations Administrator Katie Lynk, point we just have to decide how to make the financial aid and Director of Admissions Rick Ellis.

reasurer Doug Lyon is not only a longtime employee of the college, but he is chairman of the New London Board of Selectmen, an avid golfer and Thumorist whose sense of fun in word, song, and sight gag is enjoyed immensely by all who know him. Doug’s responsibilities cover all Business Office functions, including financial accounting and budgeting, as well as institutional research. He feels his staff is highly competent and can handle the aforementioned duties with a minimum of oversight. This leaves him free to do what he considers his main duty, which is the financial planning for the college. “It’s my job to see that Colby-Sawyer remains a viable economic entity,” he says, “and that means you deal with economic cycles and market trends and their impact on the college.” Doug sees the economic slow times the country is experiencing as a challenge to all business, but feels colleges may not Doug Lyon knows how critical scholarship support can be to many Colby-Sawyer students, and he does all in his power to make sure students such as Katie be affected quite as much as other organizations. “I’ve always Canning ’06 and Zach Ackles ’07 receive the scholarship support and student seen higher education as somewhat recession proof,” he says. services that will make their educational experience of the highest quality. “In good economic times, people have the wherewithal finan- PHOTO: KATIE DOW ’90 cially to afford to go to college.

FALL/WINTER 2003 21 All-College Reunion by Gaye LaCasce

ROM BEGINNING TO END,REUNION oo FWEEKEND 2003 WAS A PERFECT 2 3 BLEND OF NOSTALGIA AND YOUTH. The All-College Reunion concept once again proved to be a hit as big sisters, little sisters, MTs, and many friends from across the years participated in the weekend’s events. Some classes chose to spend their time together at events held especially for them, such as cocktail parties, teas, meals, and cruises on Lake Sunapee. Other classes enjoyed multi-class camaraderie, meeting other Colby-Sawyer and Colby Junior College alumni while touring the campus and the town, enjoying the “Around the World” welcome dinner, or attending workshops about New London’s history, Colbytown Camp, vaudeville, wine, financial planning, and handwriting analysis.

Reunion is all about choices—staying at a residence hall or a local inn, sleeping late or climbing Mount Kearsarge, sharing some quiet time at Peter Christian’s Tavern or the Four Corners Grille, or enjoying a band in Wheeler Hall. Sometimes it is fully intending to sample a fabulous- sounding workshop while simultaneously being tempted to simply sit on a granite bench in Pierce Park reminiscing with old friends. Those options are what make Colby-Sawyer reunions special; whichever choice you make is the right one as long as, at the weekend’s finish, you leave this beautiful place on the hill feeling thankful you made the effort to come. The 50th Reunion class celebrated in grand style throughout the weekend, thanks to a year of excellent and creative planning.

FALL/WINTER 2003 29 ALUMNI PROFILES StillBaseball Finding Alumni the Diamond By Ryan Smith ’00

Because of the kind of students admitted to Colby-Sawyer and the emphasis on building community, which was introduced during orientation and instilled in us until our graduation, there are many opportunities to make friendships that sustain distance and time once one graduates. And, when you compete on an athletic field for a championship, study for the same exams, and live in the same dorm room for four years, you create friendships that are unmatchable. This is a story about such a group—a group that started off as a bunch of unfamiliar teammates and grew into a collection of best friends. While some members of our group live in close proximity to one another, a few of us were transplanted to different parts of the country, which meant we could get together only “You’ll forget about us once you join the once a year around Christmas time.

Unfortunately, we did not appear on television, but perhaps it was a good thing, as we didn’t further embarrass the college or the baseball program—just ourselves. For the summer of 2002, the group decided on Chicago, a city with two Major League teams, the Cubs and White Sox. George Sylvester ’00 has served as an integral planner for all the trips thus far, and has done a great job despite his insistent and, most would say, pestilent phone calls and e-mails. I think he had his flight booked to Chicago two weeks after the Kansas City trip. Sylvester was a Sport Management major at Colby- Sawyer, and, apparently, learned a tremendous amount about event management. With a group of ten on the trip the second year, the “Windy City” was just as enjoyable as Kansas City had been, and we checked off two stadiums, including the second oldest park in the Major Leagues, Wrigley Field.

T CAPITAL CAMPAIGN SUPPLEMENT

In 2002, a perceptive trustee conceived of a park in the center of campus. She saw, before anyone else, how important it would be to have a place that would invite students and faculty and staff of today and tomorrow to pause for a moment together. The gifts of this trustee, Jean “Je-Je” Harding Pierce ’47, resulted in this park at the center of campus. Her gifts are wide-ranging—her generous support of the college, her keen eye for landscape design, her appreciation of the importance of making things beautiful, and her unbridled enthusiasm for Colby-Sawyer College—all are recognized here. On September 4, 2003, Pierce Park was named and dedicated in her honor. —TEXT OF DEDICATION PLAQUE, PIERCE PARK
