As many of you already know, the institution went through a change in designation and has officially become known as Wilmington University. The name change comes with plentiful benefits, and we have had an overwhelm- ingly positive response from students, alumni, faculty, staff and members of the community. Along with the name change, Wilmington University opened three locations in southern New Jersey that will be offering select degree-completion programs. The locations are Burlington County College, Cumberland County College and Salem Community College. This is the first time in history that the New Jersey Commission on Higher Education has granted licensure to an out-of-state institu- tion to offer degree programs at multiple sites on community college campuses in New Jersey. Additionally, the University has introduced a new doctoral program. The Doctor of Business Administration program is designed for business executives who are interested in building upon their master’s degrees to excel in leadership, management and academia. The University has also introduced a distance-learning program. We now offer four undergraduate degree programs entirely online! The programs in Criminal Justice, Human Resources Management, Business Management and Marketing allow students to earn a quality education from anywhere in the world. There are many in today’s world who cannot come to class as frequently as they would like. Our distance-learning program gives these students the opportunity to earn a degree conveniently, affordably and promptly. We hope that this magazine will help answer any questions you may have about the changes Wilmington University has experienced. We understand that we would not be the progressive, suc- cessful institution that we are today without the help of our committed faculty, our supportive staff, our alumni and, most of all, our enthusiastic students. I would like to personally thank all of you for turning a college with humble beginnings into the large, thriving institution that we are today. We didn’t turn Wilmington College into a University. You did. Sincerely, Dr. Jack P. Varsalona President Fall/Winter 2007 1 Dear Wilmington University Supporters: It is an honor to write to you regarding you, our supporters, that the University can continue support of the Wilmington University to enhance academic programs, student-centered services Annual Fund Drive.

Signs on buildings, banners that hang from walkway lanterns and more are slowly changing to reflect our change in status to a University. The magazine is definitely a place you will see the name change – it is all over the magazine except for one spot. As I’m sure you know, all of these changes cost money. Our pledge envelopes were ordered well in advance of the change, and we in University Relations felt strongly about not wasting the resources allocated to print these envelopes. We want you to rest assured that we are conscious of this, and that by using these envelopes, we are making sure that your generous gifts are not wasted on expensive fundraising materials.
