RANKEN
TECHNICAL
COLLEGE:
A CENTURY OF CHANGING LIVES
David Ranken, Jr. established Ranken in 1907, recognizing the need for a St. Louis-based trade
school that taught the skills needed in the mechanical trades and emphasized the dignity of
labor. He envisioned a place where young people could create a bright future for themselves
through high-quality, hands-on technical education.
When the first academic year began in September 1909, 20 students were enrolled in the David
Ranken, Jr. School of Mechanical Trades. For just $10 a term, boys 14 and older could enroll in
painting, bricklaying, steam engineering, carpentry and plumbing classes. By comparison, today
nearly 2,000 men and women are enrolled at Ranken for day and evening classes. Tuition is
now $5,600 per semester, and the curriculum has grown to include instruction and training in
a wide variety of technical skills in the automotive, construction, electrical, information
technology and manufacturing fields.
Ranken Technical College has grown from one lone building to a 10-acre campus with a dozen
buildings housing almost 20 different technical programs. Gone are pattern making and radio
repair programs; computers now play a dominant role in almost any technical skill. Ranken
has always embraced change, being responsive to needs and workforce demands. The College
will continue to adapt developing new curriculums and establish new degrees and certification
programs, such as the addition of the new bachelor degree programs to boost graduates careers
and to meet workforce needs. Ranken must, and does, invest in new equipment to match the
advanced technology used in businesses, providing the best education possible to transform
students into valuable employees.
In recent years, Ranken has helped revitalize the neighborhood surrounding the campus with
the construction of over 40 new affordable single family homes through the Ranken Community
Development Corporation. Recently, the College purchased the former site of the Raskas Dairy
facility adjacent to Ranken’s campus. The former plant and warehouse are in the process of being
renovated to create additional shop space, a dormitory and landscaped courtyards.
David Ranken, Jr., in a letter sent to the Board of Trustees just before he passed away in 1910,
wrote, “I have been very much gratified with the success made by the school so far.” One can
only imagine the satisfaction he would have experienced in observing the many successes that
would occur over the next 97 years, and in knowing that Ranken is prepared to grow into its
second century of success.

MESSAGE
FROM
THE
PRESIDENT
BEN H. ERNST
While faces, programs and technologies may have changed over the past 100 years, Ranken
Technical College’s commitment to the economic vitality of the St. Louis region remains as
strong as ever. Our first century has indisputably been one of educational excellence.
I’m proud to be a part of an institution with such a rich, storied history, and I’m proud of the
steady and remarkable growth of the College. Most importantly, I’m proud of the tens of thousands
of men and women who have experienced the success that comes with a Ranken degree.
The bedrock for our longstanding reputation as the premier technical college in the Midwest is
the excellence of our graduates. Their supreme work ethic and unsurpassed technical training
make them excellent employees as well as successful and innovative business managers and
owners. Their achievements validate the maxim that technical education changes lives. From
the first graduating class of 11 students in 1911 to 547 graduates this past academic year, all of
our graduates are equipped with the education and technical skills they need to succeed.
As we reflect on our impressive past, we are also building for the present and future. Over the
past year, our two major strategic expansion projects have continued to take shape. The Mary
Ann Lee Technology Center is almost complete and classes are already being held in the new
building. The Mary Ann Lee Technology Center is a 72,000-square-foot facility on the north
side of campus that has been completely renovated to house our new High Performance Racing
Technology program as well as the Industrial Technology program. Our other major investment,
the Myrtle and Earl Walker Residence Hall, is also moving right along. With planning and
designing complete — and demolition already underway — the construction phase is scheduled
to begin shortly. Upon completion, this 60,000 square-foot building will be transformed into
the College’s first ever on-campus dormitory and will have the ability to house 200 students.
To our many donors, we appreciate your continued support. Your ongoing generosity opens
doors to exciting new programs and opportunities and helps Ranken Technical College enhance
our mission of excellence in education and workforce training.
For those of you who have not invested in Ranken, I encourage you to consider the many ways
you can contribute to the education and training of our students. All gifts – no matter the type
or size – help Ranken Technical College prepare students for successful careers.
Sincerely,
July 1907

MESSAGE
FROM
THE
CHAIRMAN
R O B E R T W. S TA L E Y
As Ranken Technical College celebrates its centennial this year, my fellow trustees and I are
proud of our role in helping to prepare the College for the next 100 years. We believe in the
College’s educational philosophy, which is based on technical training, general education and
professionalism. We support the College’s mission to provide the comprehensive education
and training necessary to prepare students for employment and advancement in a variety of
technical fields.
As Ben’s letter states, Ranken’s vitality and reputation rest on the success of our graduates.
Our mission goes beyond helping our graduates find employment; it also includes preparing
students to advance in their careers. Ranken’s two-year associate degree programs prepare
students for employment and success in their fields. Subsequently, our bachelor of science
degrees in Architectural Technology and Applied Management prepare our students for further
career advancement.
In deciding to offer four-year degrees, Ranken made a commitment to the ongoing success
of not only our students, but also our faculty. Ranken’s accreditation by the Higher Learning
Commission means that 70 percent or more of our faculty must have a bachelor or master’s
degree. To maintain this requirement, Ranken’s Education Committee has developed a standard
for hiring and training faculty. All Ranken employees have a $2,000 per year tuition benefit.
The Office of Education spends a significant portion of their budget on faculty development,
including degrees, training, professional dues, licenses and certifications. One-hundred percent
of the faculty in the bachelor’s degree programs have a master’s degree or higher.
Ranken’s commitment to student success has two important benefits to the St. Louis community.
First, we continue to meet the needs of the St. Louis workforce by providing highly-trained,
well-educated graduates. Second, in creating a stable campus environment for our students,
the College continues to invest in the revitalization of the surrounding neighborhood. Our
investments include purchasing neglected properties, creating green spaces, constructing
additional homes in the area and investing in campus expansion – all of which accelerate the
revitalization of the community. We strive to be a good neighbor, an anchor in the community
and an institution in which the city of St. Louis can take pride.
On behalf of the Board of Trustees, I would like to offer sincere thanks to the faculty, staff,
students, graduates and supporters whose kindness, generosity and vision enable Ranken
Technical College to change lives and contribute to a successful future for the St. Louis region.
Sincerely,
February 1910

Ranken Technical College’s $10 million Centennial Campaign has achieved 110% of its goal,
making it the most successful capital fundraising campaign in the history of the College.
Over the course of the campaign, 1,317 donors made a total of 2,935 gifts to the College.
These generous contributions from alumni, friends, corporations and foundations make it
possible for Ranken to continue to be the leader in providing a strong technical workforce for
the St. Louis metropolitan area.
Ranken’s faculty and staff understood the importance of the campaign. Through Ranken’s
“Every Employee Counts” campaign each year, 98 percent of the College’s employees made
gifts and pledges to the campaign.
Ranken’s Board of Trustees were fully committed to the success of the campaign. 100% of the
board made leadership gifts to the campaign.
The campaign sought funds for four key areas:
Annual Fund
September 1925
301 day school students
enrolled at an annual
tuition of $45
September 1917
Ranken begins training armed services
personnel in radio, math, science, morse code,
map reading and propeller making during WWI
1927
1911
Annual, unrestricted contributions are important to the long-term growth and
success of the College. Gifts to the Annual Fund help underwrite new programs,
faculty training, program enhancements and technology upgrades. Over $3 million
has been contributed during the past five years for the annual fund.
August 1927
Ranken’s first superintendent
Gustafson dies from Bright’s disease.
He is succeeded by O.H. Turner
RANKEN TECHNICAL COLLEGE | | A CENTURY OF CHANGING LIVES
Thanks to the new Mary Ann Lee Technology Center,
students in the Industrial Technology (INT) program have
an official home and a brand new, state-of-the-art training
facility. This new location will allow for the enrollment
in the INT program to double over the next five years.

The physical appearance of the campus gives a first indicator of its prestige and
growth. Students want and need an attractive environment in which to attend
classes and study. Funds raised during the campaign allow for physical improvements
on campus including new lab space, building renovations, installation of signage
to identify Ranken at its main corridors, a landscape beautification program and
the purchase of nearby vacant and distressed property for future needs. Over
$2 million dollars was contributed for various campus projects.
RANKEN TECHNICAL COLLEGE | | A CENTURY OF CHANGING LIVES
The buildings on Ranken’s campus accommodate a variety of technologies,
covering over three city blocks to provide almost 500,000 square feet of
classrooms, labs, shops and administrative offices – all designed to maximize
hands-on learning.
RANKEN TECHNICAL COLLEGE | 10 | ANNUAL REPORT 2006 – 2007
Scholarships
It is important to keep the cost of a Ranken education affordable. Ranken does
not wish to turn any student away because the student does not have the
financial resources necessary to receive an education. The campaign allows the
College to assist more students who need financial support to accomplish their goal
of obtaining a quality technical education. Currently there are over 30 scholarship
opportunities available to students at the College. Over $2.2 million was contributed
for scholarships during the campaign.

David Ranken, Jr.’s deed of foundation trust,
which established Ranken Technical College,
was more than $1 million. He later added his
entire fortune to the College’s endowment,
which has seen substantial growth over the
last 100 years and continues to be a source
of funds to reduce annual operating costs
and tuition. These funds – along with current
year individual, foundation and corporate
donations – supplement students’ tuition.
For every 65 cents that students pay for a
Ranken education, the College contributes
35 cents.

Investing in the latest state-of-the-art technology and equipment is essential
to the educational mission of the College. It is crucial to have the best available
equipment for students for the intensive hands-on training provided at Ranken.
The success of students and the strong relationships with the industries Ranken
serves depend on its ability to stay current with technology. Purchasing new
equipment is not an option, it’s a requirement. Over $3 million dollars was
contributed to help Ranken remain in-step with industrial advances and a step
above the competition.

For the past century, Ranken has done what we set out to do – provide high quality technical
education, assist our students in finding valuable employment, and win the satisfaction from
the industries that hire our graduates.
The fact that 98 percent of students are employed in their chosen fields within six months of
graduation is a testament to both the quality of a Ranken education and the institution’s ability
to maintain positive relationships with area employers.

In fact, our graduates are in such high demand that employers have begun reaching out to

that Ranken is meeting the needs of the industries we serve.
