Grove College of Business at Shippensburg University on July 1, 2010, I have met with faculty, students, alumni, Advisory Board, advisory councils and other constituencies as part of my effort to be fully informed about the current position of the College in preparation for developing a strategic plan that position the College effectively in the global management education. The College of Business has many successful alumni throughout the globe. I believe their success comes from the great education they received from the John L. Grove College of Business faculty. This success has been reinforced by proclaiming AACSB International accreditation for all undergraduate and graduate programs in business. This is an external validation of a highest form. Every five years AACSB accredited schools are revisited for adherence to standards that reflect high quality. Parents also validate our success in educating our students, because they continue to send their sons and daughters to Ship, because they believe in our mission of excellence in preparing principle leaders in a competitive global environment. Employers continue to seek our graduates, because they believe our graduates are well prepared, ethical, and very professional. We are also fortunate to be ranked among the top business schools in the 3 world by U.S. News & World Report 2011 edition. The College of Business faculty continue to excel in teaching, intellectual contribution, and service. During the 2010-2011 academic year, sixteen achievement awards were presented to faculty for their accomplishments in the three areas of teaching, research and service. These awards were made possible by contributions of alumni and supporters of the John L. Grove College of Business. You will find the list of recipients of these awards in the annual Mission Statement report. We have had a very successful Professional MBA program The John L. Grove College of Business at Shippensburg at Ship that has been offered at the Dixon University Center University provides a high value comprehensive in Harrisburg and Hanover in addition to the campus. This educational experience that prepares students to excel as program offering will be expanded to the York area effective fall principled leaders in today’s global business community. semester 2011 and to the East Stroudsburg University campus in Spring 2012. We are also planning to offer the Emerging Leaders MBA program at the Dixon University Center and a completely online MBA effective fall semester 2012. This year’s success and progress are due to efforts and dedication to excellence of many people. I hope you are as proud of the students, faculty, and alumni, and other supporters featured in this annual report. Best Regards, John G. Kooti, Dean John L.

So says science and the Dalai Lama — and the lifeblood of ACA, dedicated camp staff and volunteers, are taking that to heart and making a positive difference in the lives of children and young adults across the US and beyond. The empathy and genuine concern modeled at camp and fostered in the campers are steps toward a brighter future for all. Campers are living proof that the acts of kindness and intentional learning camp staff and volunteers are offering through day and overnight camp experiences are having a lasting, positive impact within the camp environment, in surrounding communities, and especially in the lives of the children they serve. Our camp professionals (camp directors, camp counselors, and other staff) and the camp experience itself change lives. We provide opportunities for campers to learn about themselves, develop character, make lifelong friends, gain crucial 21st-century skills — responsibility, communication, creativity, collaboration, initiative, leadership, the list goes on — and implement all of this into their daily lives. Parents often tell us that their child changes for the good after camp. They come home with a more positive attitude and self- confidence.
