08/09 annual report www.northampton.edu Northampton Community College aNNual report 08/09 Dr. arthur Scott president, northampton community college

the 2008-2009 year will be long remembered as the year of the “great recession,” with a corresponding financial turmoil that affected nearly every family and orga- nization throughout the country. our College was no exception; while enrollment in our credit programs grew, the value of the Foundation’s endowment decreased significantly, and we suffered serious enrollment losses in our Community educa- tion Division as companies cut back their training contracts. our non-credit enrollment “drop off” was more than offset by an incredible surge of students taking credit courses. For our spring 2009 semester, we enrolled 10,649 students, by far the largest credit semester enrollment in our history. Current registration numbers for fall 2009 indicate we will exceed the spring numbers by several hundred students. this enrollment surge has added new life to our campus. this annual report gives you a visual sense of the many wonderful activities and events that effectively enhanced the learning that goes on inside the classroom. this past year, our students, through the careful guidance of faculty and staff, raised the bar in terms of their community engagement and support of many social causes. the presidential election presented us with a wonderful “laboratory” in which to engage our students in the political process. and, the year provided some of our proudest civic moments as our college community rose above their own personal difficulties and provided support for others in greater need. When the employment situation was looking bleakest, staff scheduled a series of Career transition expos, which allowed hundreds of our neighbors to receive good career advice as they faced the trauma of being unem- ployed. those sessions led us to call a community meeting and, together with alan Jennings and the Community action Committee of the lehigh Valley, form a recession task Force to better position the community to respond to the economic crisis and to coordinate our responses to effectively utilize stimulus funds. Back on campus, a holiday bazaar offered donated clothing, books and other holiday gifts free to our students. the new First Impressions Boutique, founded this year, will now allow our students to get free business attire, also donated by members of our community, for their first professional interviews. throughout the year, we were driven by a commitment to reduce as many barriers as possible so students could be successful. this commitment included redirecting college funds to reduce the impact of the decrease Ã

Some pundits have predicted that certain institutions will emerge from this economic crisis stronger than when they entered it.

aNNual report 08/09 Northampton Community College 11 Bruce a. palmer ’77 board chairman: northampton community college foundation

“The second gift begins with the first thank you.” James E. Connell

thank you. Because of you and your generosity, in a year in which the faltering economy domi- nated our conversations and our nightly news, the Northampton Community College Foundation raised more in its annual fund than in any year except the previous one. While 2007-2008 was a record annual fund year for the Foundation, 2008-2009 recorded the second largest gift total in our history through the annual fund. Your support has always helped to make Northampton Community College an excellent college. that was never more evident than this past year. as was the case in most all institutions of higher education this past year, the value of the Foundation’s endowment decreased by close to 30 percent. that decrease, coupled with a conservative spending approach adopted by our Finance Committee to preserve the inter-generational value of our endowment, lead to a significant shortfall in the amount of money we were able to allocate for student financial support. Because of the unrestricted support we received through the annual fund, we were able to make up some of that difference by directing unrestricted gifts into scholarship support. as always, we are grateful for your continued support and for your confidence in our ability to be good stewards of your investment. Foreshadowed by this tumultuous economic year was the exciting news that the Foundation was the recipient of the largest challenge grant awarded by the National endowment for the Humanities for ’08-’09. to qualify for $800,000 in matching funds, we need to raise $1.6 million over the next four years to fund an endowment that would support exciting programs in the humani- ties for the College and six community partners. We are hopeful that the community will get behind this exciting project and that, as you have done in the past, you will rally to our cause. Finally, the year in review would not be complete without me thanking my predecessor John eureyecko for all he did through- out his tenure as chairman to strengthen the Foundation. John stepped down in December after four years at the helm of this organization. thankfully, he remains on the board to help guide us as we look to build on his success and expand the base of individuals and corporations that support this fine institution. as an alumnus, I am grateful to John for the dedication, wisdom and tireless energy he devoted to Northampton to make it an even stronger institution. He will be a hard act to follow. u

Cathie and Dr. robert rienzo have traveled to all seven continents; including antarctica. they understand how travel broadens the mind. But they also believe in the value of hard work and education right here at home. Cathie is an assistant professor and manager of NCC’s diagnostic medical sonography program. Dr. rienzo, in addition to his position as radiologist at lehigh valley Hospital with a sub-specialty in nuclear medicine, is medical director of the radiog- raphy and sonography programs at Northampton. In 2005, the rienzos established the Francis W. rafferty scholarship endowment to benefit sonography students. Cathie’s deceased father is the endowment’s namesake. “He never had the opportunity for an education,” she says, “so we wanted to honor him. and it is so important to have properly educated sonographers and radiologists treating patients.” Her husband agrees. “I have always believed that to practice high-quality diagnostic radiology, you need to have a well-educated technologist,” says Dr. rienzo. “this is most important in sonography, which is the most operator-dependent imaging modality in all of radiology.” Cathie rienzo has been with the program since its inception in January 2002. then, it was a specialized diploma for which an allied health associate’s degree was needed just to apply. But the demand for change echoed like the highest frequency ultrasound. “We grew to an associate’s degree program after just three classes,” says rienzo, with a still-proud smile. “Now it’s a 24-month program, with classes running right through the summer. students receive 1,300 hours of clinical education.” NCC’s sonography program is very competitive, accepting just 11 students a year. rienzo is just as proud of the graduates as she is about the program’s success. “these are people with a passion for what they want to do,” she says. “our board pass rates are very good, and every hospital we’re affiliated with employs our graduates.” When it comes to hands-on clinical training, area hospitals blur the boundaries for NCC’s campuses and extend its education into the community. “We just couldn’t operate without our clinical sites,” rienzo says. “We have sites ranging from pocono medical Center up north, down to grand view Hospital.” the College administration “really came through for us,” she said. “In the past two years, our [on-campus sonography] machines have been updated to two new state-of-the-art machines. according to the mayo Clinic’s College of medicine Web site, employment is predicted to grow through 2016, and sonographic technology is expected to evolve rapidly, with cutting- edge designs like three-, and even four-dimensional imaging diagnostics.” Dr. rienzo sums it up: “the scholarship was established as a way to give back to the profession,” he says, “We chose to assist a well-qualified student to complete this important program as one way of doing that.” the couple believe their scholar- ship is a win-win for the students and for the field of sonography. u

22 Northampton Community College aNNual report 08/09 easing the way for future teachers by paul acampora

When Herm and Kelley Kissiah first arrived in the lehigh valley, Northampton Community College was just opening its doors. It was 1967, and Herm, who retired from lafayette College in 1999 after more than 30 years as dean of students, had developed a course called Higher education in america. “I became very interested in the emerging role of community colleges during the ’60s and ’70s,” says Herm who now serves as a member of the Northampton Community College board of trustees. Northampton Community College faculty and staff who were creating the new college on green pond road became frequent guests in Herm’s lafayette classroom. During his long tenure as dean of students, Herm led changes in lafayette’s campus life as the institution’s reputation grew into what today is recognized as one of the top small colleges in the nation. While her husband was making a difference in the lives of college students, Kelley built a career as a teacher, guidance counselor and then a principal for elementary and middle school students. Following her own retirement, Kelley accepted an offer to lead the Northampton Community College teacher education program. “I was the only professor in the NCC education department then,” she recalls. “I was committed to bringing the best prac- tices in teacher education to the College classroom, and I was very impressed when I arrived at Northampton to find faculty who were totally committed to teaching and to the question of how best to help students learn.” “What impressed me even more,” Kelley continues, “were my students. I came to understand just how many were working against great odds to stay in college to achieve their goals. When I discovered that there was no scholarship specifically to help NCC education majors, my husband and I decided that we should establish one.” as a result, the Kissiah’s created the Kelley Kissiah teacher education scholarship endowment Fund, which has been provid- ing scholarships for future teachers at NCC since 2001. “students who receive our scholarship are always grateful and excited to meet us,” says Herm. “they think we’ve done a great thing for them, but we think they are the ones accomplishing great things for themselves. We’re just pleased to be a part of their lives in this way.” over the years, Kelley and Herm have stayed in touch with and mentored students who have been recipients of their NCC scholarship as well as students from the Children’s Home of easton who attend NCC. “It’s a way for us to continue teaching in a way, which is fun. It’s also a way for us to give back both to our community and our profession,” says Kelley. today, Herm and Kelley enjoy all the opportunities that retirement brings. they are “addicted travelers” and try to discover and explore at least one new place in the world each year. they also enjoy biking, ballroom dancing and the opportunity to find new adventures at home in the lehigh valley. “We believe in life-long learning,” says Kelley. “It’s the Northampton way!” u

26 Northampton Community College aNNual report 08/09 Couple’s endowment honors family’s south side easton roots by katherine burton

as vice president and chief financial officer for Flsmidth, tim vansyckle has traveled the globe. He’s a top leader for a company that employs more than 10,000 people worldwide and is known on every continent as the leading supplier of equipment and services to the international cement and minerals industry. But for tim, his biggest successes are local. growing up on the south side of easton, vansyckle was the first in his family to attend college, and thanks to his mom and dad, he graduated from lycoming College with a degree in accounting. “my parents instilled an appreciation for hard work and the value of higher education,” says vansyckle. “they said that hard work would pay off, and they were right.” today, tim has boys of his own, four sons, all in their 20s, including one son who is a student at NCC. “they’ve mostly left the coop,” he says, “but my wife and I are happy that they still keep in touch with mom and dad.” vansyckle’s connection to Northampton Community College began even before his son decided to enroll for classes. He was recruited to serve on the NCC Foundation board in 2006 by Foundation board member, steve Hovey, who is president of Corporate environments. more importantly to vansyckle, Hovey was a lycoming College classmate, fraternity brother and friend. “I couldn’t say no to steve,” vansyckle admits. “plus, I couldn’t turn down the chance to work with such a talented group of people as the ones who serve on the board.” vansyckle is a strong believer that community colleges give students a chance they may not have had otherwise. “some of our most talented engineers at Flsmidth got their start at Northampton. It gave them a great base for success.” to honor and thank his own parents for making his own success possible, he created the Burton & Catherine vansyckle scholarship endowment to help students from the south side of easton who have been involved in the Boys & girls Club. “the club gives kids a sense of competence and usefulness and belonging. those are some of the things that my parents gave to me.” according to vansyckle, one of the most fulfilling moments he’s had since joining the Northampton family has been meeting students selected to serve as NCC’s presidential ambassadors. “these students have so much talent. From here they could go anywhere.” u
