Church and World PRESIDENT's COLUMN CONCORDIA UNIVERSITY CHICAGO ForesterCUChicago.edu Fall 2018 Celebrating Making a Difference in the Church and World PRESIDENT'S COLUMN This fall marks the beginning of my fifth year as Concordia-Chicago’s president. It has been an incredible journey for me thus far and I could not have envisioned the joy that this calling has brought me. That joy comes from seeing the light of Christ reflected by the members of the Concordia University Chicago family as they strive, in His Name, to make a difference in the world. This issue of the Forester is dedicated to celebrating the many ways that individuals can make an impact. Alumnus and storied Lutheran composer Carl Schalk, for instance, will receive the Spiritus Christi in honor of his service to the Church and the world. Not only has he been a positive influence on the lives of the many students he taught as a music educator, but we would not worship as jubilantly as we do today without his countless contributions to the Lutheran hymnal and church music in general. Concordia-Chicago’s impact isn’t limited to the borders of our great nation. You’ll also read about our faculty’s participation in a visiting scholars’ program with their Chinese counterparts. Expansion of the project is slated to bring together representatives of Chinese and U.S. corporations, as well as faculty from both countries, to explore and guide the future of global business. You will learn about undergraduate students serving Christ by working to feed the hungry in nearby communities, and, a few pages later, you’ll be reminded of the selfless gifts of our donors working to secure the future of Lutheran higher education. Concordia-Chicago’s impact on the world will only continue to grow. This year, a record number of students earned their degrees—again—including 31 doctoral students. We also awarded our first Associate of Arts as part of our Accelerated Degree Program. This fall we expect to enroll one of the largest freshman classes in the history of the University and anticipate total university enrollment to reach 6,000 combined graduate and undergraduate students. Others have dedicated their entire lives to making an impact through service to the Church and University. Dr. Denny Witte recently retired after 45 years as a member of the faculty and staff, following four years as an undergraduate student. And, as you may know, Dr. Fred Spurgat was called to his heavenly home after being connected to the University for an amazing 73 and a half years. It is through these inspiring stories that I am reminded how we are all to reflect the Light of the World in our own way. Jesus, who loves this fallen world, Himself reminds us of this when He says, “In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven” (Matthew 5:16 ESV). I pray that all members of the Concordia-Chicago community live a life of service. In whatever vocation and place God puts you, put the needs of others ahead of your own and serve them with the love that God has given to you. Every Christian makes a difference where they live, work and worship as He works through His people. Soli Deo Gloria!

Chicago Children at CUC-Trinity Galewood Basketball Camps A few years ago, when Pastor Dave McGinley of Trinity Lutheran Church-Galewood noticed that the neighborhood kids were often outside playing basketball, he got the idea to reach out to the community and start a free basketball camp. McGinley, a CUC alumnus, met with Dave Williams, basketball coach at nearby Lovett Elementary School, and CUC men’s basketball coach Randy Rogers. As they brainstormed, they discovered that both Lovett Elementary and Concordia-Chicago students spent much of their school breaks with little to do. In an effort to change this, the Holiday Hoops Camp was born. In early January, more than 50 Lovett Elementary students arrived at Geiseman Gymnasium, where Concordia-Chicago men’s and women’s basketball players shared their skills over a two-day camp. Holiday Hoops was so successful that an additional camp, called Spring Jam, was added to coincide with Chicago Public Schools spring break. “Our student-athletes get to understand that these first- through eighth-grade kids really look up to them, because they play college basketball,” said Rogers. “They learn that coaching can be hard! And the young kids have a great time.” Lovett Elementary, Trinity Galewood and CUC hope to continue this partnership for years to come. 1 Fall 2018 Forester 5 CUC News 2 Triton and CUC Create Sports LCEF National Student Marketing and Recreation Management Competition Held on CUC Campus 3+1 Program The Lutheran Church Extension Fund’s (LCEF) 7th Students pursuing careers in sports and recreation Annual National Student Marketing Competition was management can earn their bachelor’s degree in a hosted by Concordia-Chicago in April.

Bearing in mind that in the context of art history, Nebraska's contribution is relatively brief, this assignment was accepted with enthusiasm. On the other hand the assignment was undertaken not without trepidation: so much had been done by so many in such disparate fields. Therefore it came as a relief to the Committee when Nebraska's two major museums, the Joslyn Art Museum and the Sheldon Memorial Art Gallery, offered their years of experience and the expertise of their professional staffs in assembling a representative collection of painting, sculpture and graphics by living Nbraskans.

    History of the International Association for Human Caring 1978 - 2013 A. Lynne Wagner Delores Ann Gaut 2 History of the IAHC 1978–2012 Cover Art Credits The International Association for Human Caring Logo was designed in 1990 by Doris Riemen, PhD, RN, Dean, School of Nursing, University of Texas-Tyler, and officer of the IAHC. The design was approved by the Board and accepted by the Association membership in 1990. The picture depicts a quilt designed by Eunice Hill of Bee Creative in Rochester, Minnesota. Ms Hill created the quilt entitled, “Universal Connections” for the 18th IAHC conference in 1996 at Rochester, Minnesota. Ms Hill incorporated into the center of the quilt the image from a pastel drawing called, “An Invitation to Dream” © 1993/1994 by Mary Ericksen of Northfield, Minnesota. The quilt has become a symbol of the IAHC’s philosophy to promote global connections, knowledge of care and caring as the essence of nursing and a human mode of being. The center image encourages people to reach out beyond dreams and make universal connections. History of the International Association for Human Caring 1978 - 2013 A.
