KEY PARTNER IN
ECONOMIC RECOVERY

Annual Report

MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
Tony Zeiss
“Our partnerships
are essential...”
As I reflect on the past year, I am extremely
proud of all that Central Piedmont
Community College has accomplished.
We made significant gains, despite an
economy that continued to face great
turmoil; we maintained our focus, when
forced to do more with less; and we
answered the public’s call as the need
for community colleges became more
important than ever.
It is our commitment to excellence
and innovation that positions us at the
forefront of Mecklenburg County’s
economic development and workforce
initiatives. Our partnerships with local
business and industry are essential as we
equip our students with job acquisition
skills during these challenging times. We
realize we are a key partner in the county’s
economic recovery.
As Mecklenburg County’s community
college, we create innovative programs
and provide learning opportunities and
training to serve the diverse needs of
the community. By providing effective
workforce development solutions, we help
the Charlotte Regional Partnership and
the Charlotte Chamber of Commerce
attract new businesses and jobs to the
region, building a stronger and more
robust Charlotte. To ensure our success
in this area, advisory councils comprised
of local executives and technical experts
work throughout the year to evaluate the
appropriateness of our course content.
In this Annual Report, we share with
you how we are doing our part to be the
community college that Mecklenburg
County needs and deserves. We also
feature a sampling of the innovative
programs, events and initiatives that we
provide, enriching the community we have
called home for almost 50 years.
Cordially,
P. Anthony Zeiss, Ed.D.
President

CPCC impacts the local economy in three
primary ways:
1) the College’s local purchases and wages
paid to employees;
2) the spending of students from outside
Mecklenburg County; and
3) the increased skills base of the local
workforce.
CPCC operations add $78.1 million a
year to the Mecklenburg County economy.
The spending of CPCC students from
outside the county generates approximately
$13.3 million for the Mecklenburg
economy. Combining these totals with
$826.7 million CPCC students add each
year in earnings and increased business
production equals $918.1 million CPCC
adds to the Mecklenburg County economy
each year.
At the same time, for every dollar
students invest in an education from
CPCC they receive $3.10 in higher future
income over the span of their careers, and
every dollar of state or local tax money
invested in CPCC returns $2.

CPCC Hosts Sold-Out
Career Event
2011 Career Fair Connects Industries to Professionals
for Workforce Re-Entry

CPCC hosted its 23rd annual Career Fair, giving local working professionals the
opportunity to connect with business leaders representing a variety of industries,
including health care, hospitality and public safety.
The March 3 event attracted nearly 2,000 job seekers through the doors of the Grady
Cole Center to meet with the more than 70 participating businesses.
Throughout the day, attendees met with a variety of representatives from companies
such as Marriott International, Siemens Energy, Harris Teeter and others to discuss how
their qualifications could move the organization forward.
“During its 23-year history, our annual Career Fair has become known as the
community’s career resource,” said Christy Curts, career counselor and Career Fair
coordinator for CPCC. “We are fully committed to serving our community during these
challenging times, giving local residents the opportunity to connect to today’s employers,
re-enter the workforce and contribute to the economic recovery.” d
Cato Middle College
High School Students Set
Record
High school juniors and seniors enrolled
at CPCC’s Cato Middle College High
School, located on the Cato Campus,
achieved a 100-percent composite score
on the state of North Carolina’s End-OfCourse (EOC) exam for the 2009-2010
academic year. This marked the first
time Cato Middle College High School
Cato Campus
achieved a 100-percent score on the state’s
EOC testing, and the highest test rate in
the state of North Carolina and among
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools (CMS).
Each year, the state tests high school
juniors and seniors on their understanding
of a variety of academic areas, including
biology, geometry and economics, among
others. This year’s EOC exam focused
on algebra II and U.S. history. Of the 62
students tested at Cato Middle College
High School, 74.2 percent earned Level
IV honors, the highest level possible on

achieve a Level III or higher.
The Cato Middle College High School
opened in fall 2007 and is the first and only
CMS Middle-College program. The school
provides students with the opportunity
to earn an average of 30 college credit
hours while still in high school at no cost
to them or their families. The experience

CPCC Launches Campaign to Highlight Student
and Business Success in a Challenging Economy
In May 2011, CPCC launched its new image campaign promoting student
success. The campaign was given the tagline “Successfulfilled,” to capture the
essence of the College’s mission, vision and values in a single thought/phrase.
Area residents saw the “Successfulfilled” campaign in local publications and on
the College’s campuses. The “push” was a strategic marketing initiative designed
to introduce students such as CPCC alumna Julie Wooten – and local business
and industry giants such as Celgard, LLC – who have utilized the College’s many
resources to find success.
These campaign stories illustrate the impact CPCC has on students, businesses
and the community as CPCC strives to become the national leader in workforce
development and moves closer toward its 50th anniversary as Mecklenburg
County’s community college (1963-2013). d

Information Technology (IT) Workforce
Training Program to equip students with
the skills needed to apply for entry-level
Health IT positions in as little as six
months.
“Health IT professionals will be in high
demand going forward as the nation’s
healthcare system shifts its patient records
from hard copy format to a universal,
digital database that may be accessed and
shared by doctors across the country,”
said Kevan Weaver, an instructor in
CPCC’s Health Information Technology
program. “This transfer of information is
the result of new legislation passed by the
U.S. government that seeks to improve
patient care by connecting health care
practitioners – from hospitals to small
doctor’s offices – with an individual’s most
recent medical record.”
CPCC is one of three community
colleges in North Carolina to participate
in this statewide initiative which strives
to produce qualified professionals who
will have both a medical and information
technology body of knowledge to ensure
the nation’s electronic health record
project achieves high marks in efficiency,
privacy and security. d
Completion By Design Grant Awarded to Encourage Success in the Workplace
CPCC, together with four other North Carolina community colleges, has been selected to receive a Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation
Completion by Design (CBD) grant. The cohort will share a $500,000 planning grant to launch the CBD project in North Carolina.
The funding will provide CPCC with additional resources to implement new learning approaches that will make the college experience
more responsive to its student population by focusing on the entire student experience from intake to completion and building on the
interdisciplinary work and strong connections among the five colleges involved.
According to federal data, just 22 percent of first-time, full-time community college students graduate in three years. For Hispanics
and African-Americans, the rates are even lower – at 17 and 14 percent. Solving this national issue is important as many of tomorrow’s
jobs require at least some post-secondary education. The Completion by Design initiative helps community colleges better serve
students, thereby increasing the number of young people who obtain a degree, certificate or credential.
At CPCC, Completion by Design will build on the many proven, existing practices already underway at the College’s six campuses.
As the initiative progresses, the Gates Foundation will study CPCC’s progress and replicate its best practices at other peer institutions,
helping a greater number of students across the country achieve their dream of completing their education. d
CPCC To Be Named Future Home of Broadcast Hall of Fame

CPCC leaders announced that CPCC
will serve as the future home of Charlotte’s
Broadcast Hall of Fame during CPCC
TV’s 2010-2011 fall lineup premiere event
on September 22, 2010.
Located in the CPCC TV Broadcast
Center on the College’s Central
Campus, the facility will recognize
the accomplishments of the many
distinguished broadcast professionals
whose technical abilities, voices,
John Hancock, WBT Radio, Bob Davis and Ty Boyd
personalities and stories have served to
inform and inspire countless viewers and
listeners.
“There is no better way to teach the
public about the history of Charlotte’s
broadcast industry than to marry one
of the leading educational institutions
in the area – CPCC – with a facility
that showcases Charlotte’s influence on
broadcast journalism – the Charlotte
Broadcast Hall of Fame,” said James
(Jim) Babb, chief operating officer of
Bahakel Communications, Ltd. “Visitors
will be able to view an assortment of
rare memorabilia that reflects each
inductee’s life, career and legacy. We
hope the new space honors, preserves and
perpetuates the names and outstanding
accomplishments of Charlotte’s many
broadcast professionals – both past and
present.” d

CPCC Addresses At-Risk Students, Receives Next Generation Learning Challenges Grant
Next Generation Learning Challenges has
recognized Central Piedmont Community
College’s Online Student Portal Learning
System (OSPLS) as a proven, technologybased solution that addresses the retention
of at-risk collegiate students. CPCC was
awarded a $250,000 grant in May 2011
to share and implement its OSPLS with
seven other peer institutions located across
the state and the United States to boost
student success at their campuses.
Funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates
Foundation and the William and
Flora Hewlett Foundation, Next
Generation Learning Challenges
(http://nextgenlearning.org) is a multiyear initiative that seeks to address
educational barriers by using technologyenabled tools and solutions to improve
college readiness and completion in
the U.S.
Since being introduced at CPCC in
2004, the College’s OSPLS has improved
the academic success of young adult
learners enrolled in CPCC developmental
education courses. From 2004 to 2009,
CPCC students participating in all
elements of the OSPLS were three percent
more likely to earn a college degree and
more than 10 percent more likely to get
“A” through “C” grades in their courses.
As a result, nearly 70 faculty and staff
representatives from North Carolina
community colleges and other peer
institutions across the country visited
CPCC May 10-11, 2011, to receive
training on the College’s OSPLS. During
the two-day training sessions, participants
worked extensively within the tool to learn
its many applications, worked individually
and in teams to develop lesson plans and
engaged in strategy sessions regarding how
to fully implement the OSPLS on their
campuses. d
Achieving the Dream – Focus on Student Success
CPCC kicked off the Achieving the
Dream (AtD) initiative in August 2010
with a Data Summit. This summit helped
set the stage for an integrated, data-driven
approach to creating an engaged college
community focused on student success.
More than 350 full-time faculty, staff and
administrators from the Learning Unit
and from Enrollment and Student Services
(ESS) participated in this summit.
The Data Team worked to identify gaps
in student success while the Core Team
worked on the process of identifying
institutional barriers to student success.
Data Dialogs were held on each of the
six College campuses to promote broad
engagement and an understanding of the
AtD process and explain the importance of
using data to discover obstacles to student
success and develop solutions. In February
2011, the Core and Data Teams came
together and selected improving success
rates of developmental math students and
improving success rates of online students
as the two priorities for the 2011 – 2012
implementation year. Based upon these
priorities, two “think tanks” were created
to research innovative,
evidence-based
strategies,
initiatives and
interventions
to produce
and
sustain improved student success. In order
to implement and create assessment plans
for each strategy, six Strategy Teams have
been created with faculty from the areas
targeted by the interventions as well as staff
from ESS, ITS, eLearning and Institutional
Research. d

Dear Friends:
Thomas E. Norman
On behalf of the Central Piedmont Community College Foundation, please accept
sincere thanks for your generosity. In the 2010-2011 fiscal year, individuals, corporations,
and foundations contributed more than $4.7 million to extend support for scholarships
and programs at the College. Your contributions have assisted the College in providing
educational and career training opportunities to thousands of individuals over the past year.
In these challenging economic times, your gifts have truly made a significant difference in the
College’s ability to meet the needs of our community.
In the coming year, the College will embark on a major, comprehensive fundraising
campaign. This effort will coincide with the 50th anniversary of CPCC’s founding which will
be celebrated in 2013-2014. The campaign is intended to ensure the College can continue
to serve the needs of the citizens of Charlotte-Mecklenburg, preparing them for meaningful
careers and successful lives. I hope you will support this important undertaking.
Again, thank you for your support of Central Piedmont Community College. Please know
that your gifts are making a significant difference in the lives of the College’s students on a
daily basis.
Sincerely,
Thomas E. Norman

Casey and Anke Mermans
College Names North Campus the Merancas
Campus to Honor Longtime Donors
is fortunate to have a generous family
working quietly to address one of the
College’s biggest challenges – scholarships
for students who wish to attend the
College and prepare for meaningful
careers but lack the financial resources to
do so. For almost 20 years, the Merancas
Foundation, established by Casey and
Anke Mermans, has helped these students
build productive, meaningful lives by
providing access to educational and jobtraining opportunities.
Mr. Mermans, a successful businessman
and a native of the Netherlands, has seen
the European model of technical education
and workforce preparedness work well
over the years. Thus, he and his wife have
a strong affinity for CPCC’s mission of
preparing people for the workforce.
“
It is not necessary to be a white-collar executive
to succeed. Blue-collar work is necessary and
noble. It is about being productive citizens.
”
— Casey Mermans
Mr. Mermans states, “It is not necessary
to be a white-collar executive to succeed.
Blue-collar work is necessary and noble. It
is about being productive citizens.” This
focus has benefited students preparing
for technical careers, including recent
high school graduates. It also has helped
unemployed and underemployed
individuals train or re-train for a new
career after losing their jobs in today’s
economy, and assisted unemployed
workers who lack the basic education
and technical skills necessary to find
employment and move from welfare
to work.
Merancas scholarships are far-reaching.
They have helped students prepare for
high-demand health careers by earning
certificates in phlebotomy, medical
records, keyboarding, lab assisting and
nursing assisting. Numerous students
have received Merancas scholarships for
Welding Technology; Air Conditioning,
Heating and Refrigeration; Computer
continued next page
12
Information Technology; Office Systems
Technology; Construction Management,
and many more. Suffice it to say, the
Merancas Foundation has enhanced
and enriched the lives of some 3,000
individuals in the Charlotte-Mecklenburg
area by helping them attend CPCC. And,
when you think about it, the Merancas
Foundation is helping train individuals
to meet the day-to-day needs of our
community and make it a better place
to live.
The Merancas Foundation has also
helped CPCC with much-needed program
funds. In 2009, the Merancas Foundation
enabled CPCC to launch a Center for
Sustainability to train students for careers
associated with “green” industries and
environmental sustainability. In 2011, the
Merancas Foundation was instrumental
in establishing an Engineering Career
Academy to help Charlotte-Mecklenburg
students prepare for high-demand
engineering careers. Recent U. S.
Department of Labor statistics indicate a
growing need for engineers, particularly in
the energy sector, and Charlotte is rapidly
becoming an energy industry center. Over
the years, the Merancas Foundation has
also enabled the College to implement
other new program initiatives including an
Integrated Systems Technology Certificate
Program taught in the evenings and on the
weekends to prepare students for other
high-demand, high-salary technical careers.
This family is making a galvanizing
difference by helping build successful
men and women and more inclusive
communities in our region. They are
proof there is indeed hope for colleges
that align themselves with the needs of
the communities they serve and most
importantly, for students in need of
financial assistance who want to learn an
employable skill.
The support of the Merancas
Foundation substantially impacts CPCC’s
ability to extend academic and careertraining opportunities to the citizens of
Charlotte-Mecklenburg. Given today’s
economy, these opportunities are more
important than ever before. The Mermans
family has found a wonderful way to help
individuals and the community.
In recognition of this family’s longtime
support of CPCC, the College has named
its North Campus in Huntersville,
N.C., the Merancas Campus. A naming
ceremony was held at the campus in
October to honor the Mermans’ generosity
and philanthropic spirit.
Dr. Tony Zeiss, president of CPCC,
said, “Casey and Anke have always
subscribed to CPCC’s mission – to help
individuals prepare for today’s workforce
by equipping them with the skills they
need to be successful. Because of the
Mermans’ generosity, CPCC will be able
to offer the training programs necessary
to accomplish this goal for years to come.
Therefore it is only appropriate that we
give our North Campus the Merancas
name for a Foundation that believes in
helping adults become self-sufficient,
productive citizens.”
“Like CPCC, the Merancas Foundation
prides itself on building successful men and
women,” explains Casey Mermans. “That is
why we are honored to now have our name
synonymous with CPCC, an institution
that is able to take our vision for young
people and the region’s workforce and
make it a reality through its many degree,
certificate and technical job training
programs.” d

Howard Levine
Foundation Gift Adds
Faculty and Classes
Chairman of the Board and Chief
Executive Officer for Family Dollar Stores
Howard Levine recently made a gift to
CPCC to meet the growing demand
of student enrollment by enabling the
College to hire additional part-time
faculty. Commenting on this gift, CPCC
President Tony Zeiss said, “For the past
two years we have been turning away 4,000
students each semester who can’t get into
the courses they need. This generous gift
couldn’t come at a better time, and it will
fund additional classes.”
Mr. Levine says his father, Leon Levine,
preached, “If you’re fortunate enough to
be in a position to give back, you do. It
wasn’t a hard thing for me to understand.
My dad set the example, and I thought it
was an outstanding example.”
Mr. Levine continued, “People say it’s
easy to give away money. But to do it right,
you’ve got to be thoughtful.” His father
also taught him to approach philanthropy
like a business. “He knows what he’s giving
to. He makes sure that what he’s giving to
is going to use his money in the right way.”
The College is grateful to Howard
Levine for his support.

Bank of America Contributes to Pathways Program,
Grant Takes People from Welfare to Work
16
In October 2010, CPCC received a grant of $50,000 from the Bank of America
Charitable Foundation to support the College’s Pathways to Employment Program, a
nationally acclaimed training program that moves people from welfare to work. This is
the second year that the Bank of America Charitable Foundation has contributed to this
life-changing program.
The Pathways to Employment Program is a short-term course of study that allows
students to complete up to 32 weeks of course work in 12 to 14 weeks. It provides basic
skills training for students seeking their high school diploma or general equivalency
degree (GED) and workforce skills training for students seeking successful employment
and career development.
About this gift, Tommy Norman, president of the CPCC Foundation Board of
Directors, said, “It is through gifts such as this that the College can continue to serve our
community as one of the premiere community colleges in the country. Thank you for
contributing so generously.” d
Time Warner Cable Makes
an Impact with “If I Had a
Hammer” Program
Due to decreased funding this year,
had to cut back on the number of
programs it offers the public, including
those programs it offers in conjunction
with Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools
(CMS) that benefit secondary school age
children. However, thanks to a $15,000
grant from Time Warner Cable, the
College was able to bring back its “If I Had
A Hammer” program, a class that teaches
at-risk students the importance of math
skills, teamwork and communication
through personal instruction and handson activities. The program kicked off
September 24, 2010, at the CPCC
Harper Campus, following a special check
presentation featuring CPCC, CMS,
Time Warner Cable and “If I Had A
Hammer” program leaders.
During the 2010-2011 school year,
approximately 450 CMS middle school
students participated in the “If I Had a
Hammer” program, a project that engages
students in a way that no conventional
textbook approach can match. Under the
supervision of a “Hammer Boss,” students
work together to construct an 8' x 11'
Hammer House, complete with windows,
a door and a front porch.
Mr. David P. King, chairman and
chief executive officer, Laboratory
Corporation of America Holdings/
LabCorp, confirmed on June 22, 2011,
that his company would support CPCC’s
Cytotechnology program for the next
three years with a gift of $225,000 to help
meet the program’s instructional needs.
For the duration of Laboratory
Corporation’s support, the College will
designate one program instructor each
year as the Laboratory Corporation
Cytotechnology Instructor. In making
this gift, Mr. King was keenly aware that
LabCorp hires CPCC’s cytotechnology
graduates each year, stating that LabCorp
is pleased with the quality of CPCC
program graduates.
CPCC has the only Cytotechnology
program in the Carolinas. College
president Dr. Tony Zeiss said, “We are
grateful for Laboratory Corporation’s
generous support. It will help us continue
to offer cytotechnology training at a time
of budgetary constraint.” d
During construction, the “Hammer
Boss” takes several scheduled build
breaks to speak with students about a
variety of topics, such as the importance
of mathematics, how to maintain a good
work ethic and set career goals, and how
to build a good foundation in life and
make smart decisions. The breaks reinforce
the importance of education to personal
growth and the idea that success is
available to any individual willing to make
an effort and commitment. d

The Wells Fargo Foundation is also generously providing a grant of $50,000 to extend
career training opportunities to U. S. military veterans. The funds are being utilized
to provide scholarship assistance to financially needy veterans and to provide career
counseling and coaching services which are specifically designed to meet the needs of
veterans. In particular, grant funding is assisting those unemployed and underemployed
veterans who are seeking short-term, career-specific training required to enter or re-enter
the workforce.
There is a considerable need for financial assistance and counseling among both of these
groups, and The Wells Fargo Foundation is making a monumental difference at CPCC. d

James Douglas Zeller Remembered at Special Ceremony
On October 14, 2010, college and community friends gathered to honor the life, memory
and legacy of CPCC benefactor, James Douglas Zeller. The ceremony was held at 6:30
p.m. in the Christa and Reece A. Overcash Academic and Performing Arts Center on
CPCC’s Central Campus. As a beloved instructor at the College, Mr. Zeller taught Music
Appreciation and Applied Music at CPCC from 1974 until his untimely death in 2006
at the age of 59. He chose to “continue the music” by naming the College as a primary
beneficiary of his estate. At his request, Mr. Zeller provided funds for the establishment of
a James Douglas Zeller Endowment to provide scholarships to CPCC students preparing
for music careers, a Zeller Music Performance Endowment for student productions and
visiting artists, equipment updates for the College’s music laboratories, a piano for the
Tate Recital Hall, and a beautiful Steinway concert grand piano for the Halton Theater.
On this evening, a plaque was unveiled recognizing Mr. Zeller’s legacy gift and the
naming of the James Douglas Zeller Music Laboratories at CPCC. Also, the beautiful
Steinway piano was dedicated in honor of Mr. Zeller. It was our distinct privilege to have
Nobuyuki “Nobu” Tsujii, a renowned pianist, perform at the dedication of this piano.
Twenty-two-year-old Nobu began playing piano at the age of two when he played
“Jingle Bells” on his toy piano after hearing his mother humming the tune in their
Japanese home. Born blind, but gifted with a talent for music, Nobu won the 2009 Van
Cliburn International Piano Competition. His performance moved the jurors to tears,
brought the audience to its feet and created such fervor that Time magazine coined the
term, “Nobu Fever.”
CPCC Foundation Board member and Chairman of the CPCC Legacy Society, Mr.
William Claytor, closed the ceremony saying, “James Douglas Zeller is recognized this
evening as a true philanthropist – he has changed the world with a giving heart. We are
grateful for his life, his service, and his legacy.” d

In October 2010, CPCC received a grant
from the Goodrich Corporation to help

at the College. Since the spring of 2009,
the number of veterans enrolled at CPCC
has more than doubled. This increase in
veteran enrollment can be attributed to the
large numbers of veterans returning from
service in Iraq and Afghanistan and to the
large number of older veterans returning
to college after having lost their jobs during
the economic recession. A significant need
exists for counseling services that will help

Douglas Provides Scholarships for Students Returning to School and Supports
Veterans Scholarship Program
Carol Douglas, CFP, was introduced to CPCC by Foundation Board member Wilton Connor. Ms. Douglas was struggling with
multiple myeloma at the time, but she became a dear friend and strong supporter of the College. Ms. Douglas had a special regard for
individuals who return to college after years in the workforce. She named CPCC a beneficiary of a Gratitude Endowment to provide
scholarships for these students. In doing so, Ms. Douglas became a member of CPCC’s prestigious Legacy Society.
The more Ms. Douglas learned, the more supportive she became. When she heard about the Veterans Scholarship Program CPCC
was launching, Ms. Douglas established the Thomas J. Sills Endowed Veterans Scholarship in honor of her son, Thomas, who served
three tours of duty in Iraq during his recent U.S. military service. Ms. Douglas said, “It’s a gratitude gift!”
Ms. Douglas, a successful financial planner in Charlotte, always had a strong interest in culture and charity. When she retired
from her position as vice president with Merrill Lynch in 2008 due to her illness, Ms. Douglas shifted her focus to her family and
philanthropy. When Carol Douglas passed away on August 4, 2011, her gifts left Charlotte and many nonprofits much improved. We
will always be grateful for her friendship and support of CPCC. d
James E. Rogers Named Richard H. Hagemeyer Award Recipient
CPCC alumnus honored for demonstrating community involvement, outstanding character
James E. Rogers, co-founder and senior vice president of
Flagship Capital Partners, was the 2011 recipient of the
prestigious Richard H. Hagemeyer Educational Advancement
Award. The award recognizes a CPCC alumnus who has
significantly benefited from experiences at CPCC and whose
efforts have helped the community.
Rogers earned a bachelor’s and master’s degree from East
Tennessee University in the 1960s before joining the U.S.
Air Force in 1967. After serving in the armed services, he
pursued a real estate career, working for The Ervin Co. as an
analyst and area manager. As a consummate lifelong learner,
he enrolled at CPCC in 1973 to hone his commercial real
estate and investment knowledge, graduating in 1977 with an
associate degree in general education.
Since graduating from CPCC, Rogers has garnered the
respect of the Charlotte community, not only through his James Rogers (left) accepting Hagemeyer Award from CPCC Trustee Ralph Pitts
success as an entrepreneur and philanthropist, but also through his service to the community. He has served on the
Board of Directors of many nonprofits and has served as Board president of a number of these organizations.
As a result of his extraordinary leadership abilities and passion for volunteering, he has been awarded Leadership Charlotte’s Shelley
R. Lyons Circle of Excellence Award, East Tennessee State University’s Outstanding Alumnus Award, the YMCA’s George Williams
Lifetime Achievement Award and the Charlotte Region Commercial Board of Realtors’ Realtor of the Year Award.
Reflecting on his many accomplishments, Rogers credits CPCC for much of his success. “I have been impressed by the depth of
CPCC’s faculty and the broad range and diverse curriculum it offers,” he explains. “Year after year, CPCC prepares students for today’s
workforce by helping them reach their goals. Because of this, the College is able to maintain its commitment to student success as it
strives to become the national leader in workforce development.”
Rogers was recognized with the Hagemeyer Award at CPCC’s commencement ceremony on May 12, 2011, and a scholarship was
awarded to a CPCC student enrolled in the College’s real estate program in Mr. Rogers’ honor.
“Jim is a tremendous asset to the Charlotte community; not only does he volunteer his own skills and abilities, but he also helps
others connect with agencies that need help,” said Dr. Tony Zeiss, president of CPCC. “CPCC is proud to honor an individual of
Jim’s caliber with the Richard H. Hagemeyer Award – an award that represents the best in community involvement, personal growth
and character.”
This award is named for Dr. Richard H. Hagemeyer, CPCC president for 23 years, who led the College from a trade school with
1,200 students to the state’s largest community college. d

annual gift.
Performing Arts Society members also

Pease Auditorium
Pease Auditorium
Benefactors
Pease Auditorium, located off Pease Lane
on CPCC’s Central Campus near uptown
Charlotte, was renovated in 2009 – 2010.
This auditorium is named for Colonel
J. Norman Pease, an avid supporter of
CPCC during its early years. He headed
the architectural firm that developed the
College’s first master plan.
Pease Auditorium was the first location
for the College’s Drama Department to
put on plays (1970 – 1994). Today this
beautiful, elliptically-shaped auditorium
is once again home for theatre and other
performances at CPCC with smaller
audiences.
Colonel Pease passed away in 1987, but
we remain grateful for his leadership and
guidance. We are also grateful for the Pease
Auditorium benefactors, enabling this
much-needed renovation to be completed.
Donors making a gift of $500 or more
will have their name or the name of a
family member or friend inscribed on a
Pease Auditorium plaque permanently
displayed in the building.
For more information on the Pease
benefactor program, please contact the
CPCC Foundation at 704.330.6869. d

College Honors Legacy
Society Members
24
One hundred nineteen members of the
CPCC Legacy Society were recognized
on April 21, 2011, including 22 new
inductees. In their honor, College leaders,
trustees and CPCC Foundation Board
members gathered for a dinner on the
stage of the College’s Halton Theater in
the Overcash Center on Central Campus.
“I see Central Piedmont Community
College’s success every day as I visit
CPCC’s six campuses and work with the
local business community,” said College
President Dr. Tony Zeiss, the evening’s
host. “We are making a difference. You
are making a difference. Just by being a
member of the Legacy Society, you are
ensuring the future success of CPCC. We
appreciate your commitment.”
The Legacy Society recognizes
individuals who have made planned gifts to
the College. This means they have named
CPCC a beneficiary of a will, life insurance
policy, trust, gift annuity, or individual
retirement account (IRA); or they have
named CPCC a recipient of memorial
gifts at their passing. Donors may have also
given a gift of real property.

and the Legacy Society, please call Brenda

Memorial and Honor
Gifts
Memorial and honor gifts are a
special way for donors to remember
family and friends. Some CPCC
donors make a provision for gifts
to be made to the College at their
passing, or their families make the
request. Other donors make gifts of
appreciation in honor of someone
who has made a difference in their
lives, for a birthday, anniversary,
Christmas or another special
occasion. Honor and memorial gifts
are a thoughtful way to give. d
