Photos by Cecelia Mason From the President 2014-15 Facts and Figures As I write this letter I am very new to campus, but I already know that leaving Shepherd will be hard. I am here as the interim president until the next permanent president arrives, a period that may last anywhere from five to 11 months. For me it will have been an enormous privilege to engage the university in this way. Shepherd is a fine university that gets better all the time. You are contributors to that progress, making us proud of your help and helping us create more things to be proud of. Tuition (per year): $6,570 In-State Resident $16,628 Out-of-State Resident Room and Board (per year): $9,308 Enrollment: Full-time Undergraduate: 3,093 Part-time Undergraduate: 765 Full-time Graduate: 87 Part-time Graduate: 96 In recent years you have supported the Scarborough Library, the Center for Contemporary Arts, Shepherd athletics, our business programs, scholarships for our students, and more. You have also advocated for Shepherd in forums from local neighborhoods to the Higher Education Policy Commission to the legislature. You are a tremendous resource for the university. Bachelor of Arts Bachelor of Fine Arts Bachelor of Music Education Bachelor of Music Performance Regents Bachelor of Arts Bachelor of Science Bachelor of Science in Nursing Bachelor of Social Work Cecelia Mason I can see what must attract you to Shepherd. A pretty campus in a beautiful part of the country. A public liberal arts college but a university that understands and values professional preparation. Solid academic values combined with winning athletic teams. A real spirit of place. And above all, students—students whose hopes and dreams and accomplishments make everything we do here worthwhile. Undergraduate Degrees Offered: Sylvia Manning Among the highlights of the past year, we welcomed our first cohort of students in the Doctor of Nursing Practice (D.N.P.) program with a full complement of 15; we inaugurated an accelerated M.B.A. program; and Amy Garzon Hampton, clinical instructor in social work, became a Fulbright scholar. On the challenging side, SU has considerable resource needs that are not met, nor are likely to be met in the near future, by the state. Your support matters enormously as we move toward greater self-sufficiency while continuing to fulfill our mission of service. Thank you.

In addition, Affordable Colleges looked at how close the colleges are to places where outdoor activities occur and at the outdoor-focused clubs offered on campus.

The two-year long endeavor is par t of Shepherd’s historic preservation and public history program led by Alexander, who is pictured at Shepherd’s historic Yellow House. Also known as the Entler-Weltzheimer House, the structure is currently undergoing renovation as par t of the same program and may one day serve as a learning lab for historic preservation students. Previously, members of the Phi Sigma Chi sorority, which conducted meetings in the house from the 1940s through 1960, contributed $4,000 to pay for the design and installation of a new iron railing in front of the house. That effor t was led by Betty Lowe ’52, president of the Phi Sigma Chi alumnae and member of the Shepherd University Foundation board of directors. In April 2015, Shepherd was honored with a preservation award by the Historic Shepherdstown Commission for its Yellow House restoration effor ts.

Jordan ’99 Cecelia Mason Right: Faculty, staff, students, and community members gathered in April 2015 at the Center for Contemporary Ar ts II as the sculpture studio was named in honor of Dow Benedict, professor of ar t and dean of the School of Ar ts and Humanities. The occasion also marked a celebration of Benedict’s 44 years teaching at Shepherd. According to Dr. Christopher Ames, vice president for academic affairs, Benedict regularly encourages students and faculty to get out and experience ar t and humanities in our living world. As a result, Benedict can often be found suppor ting Scarborough Society programs and other Foundationsponsored events on campus throughout the year. He is pictured here with Rhonda Smith, chair of the Depar tment of the Contemporar y Ar t and Theater and a frequent contributor to the Scarborough Ar t and Lecture Series’ Annual Faculty Ar t Show.

The company was founded more than 60 years ago by World War II veteran Sam Scott, who chose to give it to his employees upon his own retirement. They in turn created a nonprofit foundation with the intent to make gifts to hospitals and universities within Scott Electric territories. “[Mr. Scott] has never been a man concerned with material wealth,” said eastern territory manager Edward Garofalo. “His lack of spending on himself really secured the future of Scott Electric. And we decided to pay it forward.” Monica Lingenfelter, executive vice president of the Shepherd University Foundation, accepted the generous unrestricted gift on behalf of the university.

In Memory of Evelyn Miller Stanley and Judith Jones In Memory of Melvin Miller Photo cour tesy Sydney Pringle Right: Though Dr. William “Bill” Pringle’s path to higher education was, by his own admission, somewhat winding, it began and ended at Shepherd University. After graduating from Charles Town High School in 1952 and ser ving as a U.S. Marine Corps sergeant in Korea for three years, the Summit Point native attended Shepherd for several years before transferring elsewhere to complete his studies. He attended dental school at West Virginia University and graduated from Temple University School of Dentistr y for Or thodontics before opening a dental practice with five satellite offices in nor th central West Virginia, where he remained from 1967 through his retirement in 1992. Bill returned to Shepherd two decades later, following a post-retirement career as a ski instructor in Breckenridge, Colorado, and graduated in 2012 with a Regents bachelor of ar ts (R.B.A.) degree. Along the way, he established the Dr. Bill Pringle Scholarship in appreciation of his own Shepherd education. The award is designated for Shepherd students majoring in science. Dr. Bill Pringle ’12 passed away on January 8, 2015 at his residence in Bridgepor t surrounded by family. In Honor of Dr. John Morrill Carol and Jeffrey Plautz In Memory of Wilma A.

Left: In addition to her many accomplishments as president of Shepherd University for the past eight years, Suzanne Shipley also left an impressive philanthropic legacy. It began in 2007 with the Create the Future Endowment, which she established with her husband, Randy Wadswor th, in suppor t of students studying abroad. Additionally, each year a por tion of the endowment’s interest is allocated for expenses incurred by faculty conducting research overseas. Having both been privileged to travel abroad during their college years, the couple created the scholarship knowing what a remarkable learning experience travel can offer. In 2014 Shipley and her brother, Wes Shipley, established the Mary Jane Shipley Scholarship in honor of their mother on her 90th bir thday. Suppor ting female athletes par ticipating on intercollegiate spor ts teams, the award reflects Mary Jane Shipley’s love of tennis, through which she was able to express her competitive nature. Dr. Shipley has always felt her mother’s work on the cour t demonstrated how practice and persistence can turn into results. Mar y Jane Shipley herself took an active role in establishing the Shipley legacy at Shepherd when she created the Walker Hor ton Shipley Music Scholarship in memor y of her late husband, who was always happiest listening to or playing music. Accordingly, the scholarship suppor ts students pursuing studies in the area of music. Dr. Shipley is pictured at a 2014 football game with her namesake, Zan, the Shepherd ram mascot.

Left: Senior Charles (Chuck) Gaines, of Washington, D.C., is a recreation and leisure studies major and recipient of the Rober t L. and Jean M. Rissler Scholarship, established in 1987 by Rober t Rissler ’47 in memor y of his late wife, Jean Rissler ’49. Originally established in Jean’s name only, Rober t later changed the name of the award to reflect the couple’s mutual desire to leave their entire estate to Shepherd. While the scholarship financially assisted numerous Shepherd students during the last 15 years of Rober t’s life, it was not until his passing in 2002 that the full scope of Rober t and Jean’s generosity came to fruition. Since that time, approximately 30 students per year benefit from awards funded through the Rober t and Jean Melvin Rissler Scholarship. As one such student, Chuck Gaines is grateful for their generosity. “This scholarship is the reason I am able to fur ther my education following a financial crisis,” he said. “If it’s not hard, then it’s not wor th it.” Helene Alvarez Bazzrea Memorial Scholarship: Elementary education students BB&T Bank Scholarship (formerly F&M): General academic and business students Dr. Carl Bell Biology Fund: Biology scholarship and program support James W. and Sharon Devol Brown Scholarship: Education students and student athletes (with preference for basketball) Ralph and Margaret Burkhart Memorial Scholarship: Science, business education, or arts and humanities students Erma Ora Byrd Memorial Scholarship: Funded by PrimeCare Medical, Inc. for nursing students Robert A. and Linda Grove Carpenter Scholarship: Engineering or other hard science students (with preference for Washington County, Maryland, Berkeley County, HCC transfers, business minors, and veterans and their spouses or dependents) Monte Cater Silver Anniversary Endowed Football Scholarship: Football student athletes Charles Town Kiwanis Club Scholarship: General academic students Albert H. and Estelle Koonce Cobb Memorial Research: Science research support Daniel and Orpha Cowgill Scholarship: Support for Shepherd South Branch area students (deferred funding) Jonathan Paul Daily Endowed Scholarship: Applied mathematics students Tony Del-Colle Endowed Memorial: Jefferson County returning students Delta Sigma Pi, Epsilon Kappa Alumni Association Scholarship: Delta Sigma Pi students District VI Nurses Scholarship: District VI Nursing students Charles E.

Left: As a first-year student at Shepherd in 2014, Michael Grant, of Harpers Ferry, was the recipient of three privately funded scholarship awards, each of which benefits multiple students. Ever y year, awards funded through the James and Katherine Moler Scholarship and the United National Bank Scholarship assist numerous deserving Shepherd students. Additionally, during the 2014-2105 academic year, Michael was one of 20 students to receive the First in Your Family Scholarship, which resulted from a 10-year initiative developed in 2000. The multifaceted program sought to assist regional high school students from low-income families through college preparator y sessions, work site visits, and incentive-based scholarships. When the program ended in 2010, donors Tom and Dee Taylor, of Harpers Ferr y, chose to give the remaining funds to Shepherd as a way of saying thank you to the university for providing space and volunteers for the First in Your Family college preparatory sessions. For Michael, the three scholarships offered him a chance to chase his goals, which include earning a college degree. Mr. and Mrs. C.
