8 7th COMMENCEMENT May 11, 2019 | 10 a.m. Recreation Center #CSUlater #CSUgrad19 3 To the 87th Graduating Class of Clarks Summit University: Today, you don the attire of one who has made a significant achievement. You walk across the stage, move the tassel and join more than 17,000 CSU alumni who are serving our Savior around the globe. We celebrate you and the growth you have made as you earned your degree, remembering it is all through the grace and strength of an all- powerful God. You have pursued your God-given passion, surrounded by peers and professors who encouraged you along the way. It is not the end of those relationships. As you advance into the careers and ministries God has already prepared for you, we at CSU remain committed to your growth and will cheer you along the way—as professionals, as servants of Christ, as friends. In addition to your preparation in one of more than 70 different academic programs, many of you have taken advantage of unique learning opportunities. Study abroad programs, intentionally designed on-campus employment, Defender athletics, leadership development, mentoring relationships, ministry opportunities, internships, theatrical and musical performances—you know how great of an influence these things have had in shaping your collegiate experience and preparing you for what is ahead. Pause a moment to take it all in today. Look around at your fellow graduates and envision the exciting ways you will each change your world for Christ. Look at members of your own family and members of the CSU family, and thank those who have played a part in your growth. Look back and see the next classes of CSU Defenders whom you have already influenced as leaders and friends. As you leave the Summit, seek out ways to work with one another. We believe we are more effective when we work together, united by the same goal in serving the same God. We pray you will always prioritize your relationship with Christ, pursue the goals He has for you and live out the hope you have in your Savior. You are Christ centered, career ready. We look forward to watching you succeed. #CSUlater #CSUgrad19 2019 e Commencement Ceremony e † Processional Pomp and Circumstance March No.1 ¬ Congregational Hymn The Power of the Cross Edward Elgar Keith Getty & Stuart Townsend Oh, to see the dawn of the darkest day: Concert Choir Battle of Jericho Christ on the road to Calvary.

    Local Colleges, Universities Generated Regional Impact of $1.3 Billion in 2018

    Study: Local colleges, universities generated regional impact of $1.3 billion in 2018 Ten private colleges and universities in Northeast Pennsylvania generated a regional economic impact of nearly $1.3 billion and produced more than 11,500 jobs in 2018, according to a study released by the Association of Independent Colleges & Universities of Pennsylvania. BY DENISE ALLABAUGH, STAFF WRITER / PUBLI SHED: OCTOBER 27, 20 19 AICUP worked with Parker Philips Inc., a nationally recognized consulting firm specializing in economic impact analysis, on the study that shows the 10 colleges and universities also contributed more than $60 million in state and local taxes. “Economic impact is an objective way to measure the significance of an organization in the regional economy,” said Nichole Parker, co-founder and president of Parker Philips. “It is a tool that policymakers can use to inform their decisions and (take) an objective look at the value of investing in an institution or entity. AICUP schools clearly make a major contribution to their local, state and regional economies in the short and long term.” Schools in the study included Clarks Summit University, Geisinger Commonwealth School of Medicine, Johnson College, Keystone College, King’s College, Lackawanna College, Marywood University, Misericordia University, the University of Scranton and Wilkes University. The study showed the 10 colleges and universities paid more than $238 million in salaries and more than $81 million of employee benefits. Statewide, more than 90 independent nonprofit schools create or sustain almost 200,000 jobs in Pennsylvania every year in addition to generating an annual economic impact of $24 billion for the state’s economy, according to the study.
