08/09 Annual Report Northampton Community College Annual Report 08/09 Dr Northampton Community College Magazine 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 à aNNual report 08/09 Northampton Community College 1 editors heidi bright butler in endowed scholarships, to extending the free tuition program for the unemployed paul joly for the summer and fall semesters, and creating a book rental program to reduce the proofreader cost of books for students. and it took the form of increased attention to what it kate schaffner takes for students to be successful academically as we completed the third full year art director of our achieve the Dream initiative. traci anfuso-young the results of these efforts and many others will help keep education accessible for our students and enable them to enter our community as well-prepared adults, production coordinator � marianne atherton � ready to be productive workers or successful transfer students. the external valida- tion of our work continues as evidenced by: contributing photographers � randy monceaux � n NCC being the only community college in the country to receive an NEH philip stein � challenge grant. hub willson � n Our sponsoring school districts extending the Articles of Agreement to 2056. president � dr. arthur scott n The College receiving over $600,000 of federal funding from Congress. n The continuous stream of supportive comments we receive from alumni vice president throughout the region. institutional advancement the next academic year is sure to present additional challenges. public funding susan k. kubik has not been able to keep up with our significant enrollment growth, which leaves northampton � tuition as our only revenue source for increased funding at a time when our students community college � foundation � can least afford it.

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

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.

  • Discovery of Japan by a New Englander: a Diary of William
    DISCOVERY OF JAPAN BY A NEW ENGLANDER; A DIARY OF WILLIAM CLEVELAND, CAPTAIN'S CLERK ON BOARD THE MASSACHUSETTS IN 1800: AN INTRODUCTION MADOKA KANAI* I THE IDEA THAT THE FAMOUS 1853 EXPEDITION OF COM­ modore Matthew Calbraith Perry did not initiate relations between Japan and the United States has been widely ac­ cepted.' Perhaps, the most balanced and factual description of the relations is that of Shunzo Sakamaki, Professor at the Univ­ ersity of Hawaii, which was largely written on the basis of pri­ mary and secondary materials then available in the two countries (J apan and the United States). Mr. Sakamaki points out that the Perry expedition was preceded to Japan - on at least twenty­ five occasions - by twenty-seven American vessels, including fif­ teen merchantmen, nine whalers, and three warships.' An effort to enrich Sakamaki's chronicle in terms of the analysis of the means by which the United States made the intellectual acquaint­ ance of Japan, has recently been done by Columbia University Professor Henry F. Graff, in his introduction to an unofficial diary *The text of this unpublished diary as transcribed from its original in manuscript, and annotated by Mr. M. Kanai, will be separately published by the Institute of Asian Studies as one of its published Monographs. Mr. Kanai wishes to acknowledge the cooperation rendered him while gathering microfilm materials, by Professor John Whitney Hall of Yale University, Mrs. Moyra L. Baker, former staff secretary at Peabody Museum, Salem, Massachusetts, and Mrs. MAP. Meilink-Roelofsz, Keeper of the General State Archives, The Hague. Credit and thanks are due to Mr.
