The strategic planning process initiated by WVU President Jim Clements has involved hundreds of people at the HSC, and has resulted in a renewal of our dedication to our core missions. Transforming Lives and Eliminating Health Disparities We have identified five priorities for the HSC over the next five years: • Contribute to the health of West Virginians through leading edge research programs • Promote a vibrant environment devoted to diversity, learning & scholarship • Raise the health status of West Virginians • Foster a culture of high purpose, accountability & accomplishment • Deliver high quality, effective patient-centered care Each of our schools has set specific measurable goals under these priorities and will publicly report on their progress as we move forward. To see more detail on the HSC Strategic Plan and follow our progress, visit www.hsc.wvu.edu/hsc2020. Our success in the pursuit of these goals has been immeasurably strengthened in the past year by the impressive generosity of our donors. Not only have several individuals, families, corporations and foundations stepped up to create transformational, million-dollar-plus endowments, but an enormous number of alumni, parents, friends and former patients have reached into their pockets to support our students, our research programs and our healthcare efforts. The total raised to support our schools and programs in FY 2011 was $21.2 million.

  • Michael L. Benedum 1869-1959 Inducted 1970 Michael Late
    Michael L. Benedum 1869-1959 Inducted 1970 Michael Late Benedum was born July 16, 1869 in Bridgeport, West Virginia. He married Sarah Lantz of West Virginia in 1896. They had one son, Claude Worthington Benedum, who died in WW I. Benedum spent his life searching for oil in the earth, beginning in 1897 when he drilled his first well in the Cow Run sands of West Virginia. It has been said that there wasn’t a day in his life since then that he wasn’t drilling somewhere in the world. Benedum wildcatted all over the United States and Mexico, making the first big oil strike in Illinois. He also proved the Louisiana Caddo field and helped develop important fields in Texas. He discovered Colombia’s famous “Tropical” field, was the first to probe Romania’s Ploesti fields, and credited with finds in Canada and the Philippines. His discovery in the West Texas field 50 miles southeast of Midland, the Benedum Field, is the only field named after him. Benedum’s first job in the petroleum industry was in 1891 with South Penn, a Standard Oil subsidiary which lasted four years. An official of the company, not Benedum’s usual boss, accused him of pocketing company lease money. Benedum told him that if he believed that, they needed to find another man for the job. The man also insisted that Benedum buy the leases in question. Benedum agreed, paying $7,500. Less than one year later, he sold the leases to Standard for $400,000 after he and Joe Trees had found oil on them, beginning his petroleum career.

To a healthier tomorrow!” Kirk Disrude, a PE teacher and coach in Park Ridge, Ill., who was the picture of good health when he had a stroke at 38, and while his wife Beth was 20-weeks pregnant with their first child.

Throughout their training, they pushed newborn son Logan in a stroller. “As a young stroke survivor, I want to change the way we view stroke in America to better enable successful reintegration into our communities. The American Heart Association provides a platform to voice my concerns among decision-makers at the local, state and national levels.” Amy Edmunds, stroke survivor since 2002, spoke on behalf of the American Stroke Association during the Rally for Medical Research in Washington, D.C., to urge restored funding for the National Institutes of Health.
