campaign’s objectives accomplished
to date. We then anticipate
welcoming a new president to the
campus who will begin to develop
the vision for the School for the
175th anniversary and beyond.
Thank you for
Advancing the Legacy!
It is nearly time to begin the
celebration of the success of
Advancing The Legacy – The
Campaign for Wyoming Seminary,
a success made possible entirely by
the generosity of so many people.
Because of your dedication to
our School and this campaign,
Wyoming Seminary has been
transformed in significant ways.
As the chairs of this campaign, we
have been honored to work with so
many of you to bring about these
new or renovated facilities:
• Klassner Field
• Lull Tennis Center
• Total refurbishment of Nesbitt
Memorial Stadium
• Allan P. and Marian Sutherland
Kirby Center for Creative Arts
• Sprague Hall third floor classrooms
• Lower School first floor entrance
and classrooms
• Masonry preservation, new roof
and windows in Swetland, Fleck
and Darte Halls
• Refurbishment of the Kirby Library
• Early Childhood Learning Center
at Lower School
The Louis Maslow STEM School
is an important expansion of
Wyoming Seminary’s academic
program. In addition, many
individuals have continued the
long Sem tradition of establishing
scholarship endowment funds in
gratitude for the education they and
their family members have received.
It is important for all of us to
celebrate how this campaign has
revitalized Wyoming Seminary
and we encourage you to further
review these enhancements in the
following pages of this report.
Now, as we look forward to the
official conclusion of the Campaign
on June 30, 2015, our colleagues
on the Board of Trustees realize
that despite all these tremendous
physical and programmatic
improvements, much remains to be
done to continue to enhance and
create a campus environment to
prepare Sem students for a lifetime
of learning in an increasingly global
environment. With the retirement
of Dr. Kip Nygren on June 30,
2015 and the School’s 175th
anniversary only five short years
away, the Board of Trustees and
the Campaign steering committee
have committed to securing the
pledges necessary to fully fund the
However, we first need to raise
the final $2 million necessary to
fund all that has taken place over
the past eight years. With your
continued support, we know we
can be successful!
Wyoming Seminary has evolved
over the past 17 decades as a
result of the philanthropic efforts
of munificent alumni and friends.
These men and women have left
their legacy on this important
institution of learning. Advancing
the Legacy will be a total success
if all of us take responsibility for
Wyoming Seminary. By what
we give and by what we do, we
become architects of Sem’s future.
We know that with your help,
Wyoming Seminary will be in
good hands for our grandchildren’s
generation and for their
grandchildren’s as well.
The successful conclusion of this
historic campaign is now in sight
and we invite you to join with us
as we celebrate these significant
accomplishments. Thank you for
all you have done and continue to
do for Wyoming Seminary.
Sincerely,
Richard M. Goldberg ’55

ADVANCING THE LEGACY: HOW THE CAPITAL CAMPAIGN TRANSFORMS LIVES
THE
LEGACY
A Legacy of Academic
Accomplishment
Wyoming Seminary’s new STEM
(Science, Technology, Engineering,
Math) program, housed in the
Louis Maslow STEM School and
now in its third year, is designed to
inspire students at both the Upper
and Lower Schools to learn more
about the natural world and the
methods engineers use to develop
solutions to the world’s complex
issues. To initiate and provide
the initial funding for STEM, the
family of Louis Maslow has made a
large gift in memory of their father
and grandfather. Mr. Maslow
was a self-taught engineer and
inventor who founded InterMetro
Industries, a division of Emerson
Electric that makes storage
and transport systems used in
commercial, food service, consumer
and healthcare industries.
Directed by Sem science faculty
member Rachel Bartron, the
STEM School provides a STEM
Foundations course to all
freshmen students and now offers
additional courses in robotics
(focusing on locomotion, flight,
submersibles), applications of
differential equations and electrical
engineering. The school also
provides a lecture series on STEMrelated topics which is free and
open to the public, and a Saturday
morning interactive program for
children in primary and middle
school.

“
The Kenneth & Caroline Taylor Foundation is proud to support
the STEM program at Wyoming Seminary Lower School. We
believe that the integration of science and technology into the
everyday curriculum enhances our children’s ability to truly
embrace these disciplines. By introducing Lower School students
to key mathematical and scientific concepts at an early age, we
arm our children with a life-long appreciation for the power of
science. We hope that these students will be able to more easily
integrate and apply this understanding into whatever field of
study they choose to pursue.
”
-Christina Taylor, The Taylor Foundation
ADVANCING THE LEGACY: HOW THE CAPITAL CAMPAIGN TRANSFORMS LIVES
A Legacy of Athletic
Accolades
Athletics have been a part of the
Wyoming Seminary educational
program since its earliest days,
and the school has been a leader
in introducing new sports to the
Wyoming Valley. Sem was the first
school to offer wrestling, soccer,
ice hockey and lacrosse in the
area. The school now has three
new athletic venues: Klassner
Field (2006), Lull Tennis Center
(2009) and the renovated Nesbitt
Memorial Stadium (2013).
Klassner Field, the school’s first turf
and artificially lighted field, is used
for field hockey and lacrosse.
The Lull Tennis Center features
six courts and the beautiful Rudin
Pavilion.
Nesbitt Memorial Stadium, with
Antinnes Field, includes two
new lighted turf fields and can
accommodate football, soccer,
lacrosse, baseball and softball. The
complex includes a new grandstand
and press box.
“
With these new fields
Wyoming Seminary now
has better athletic facilities
than any other high school
or college in the area. The
students are very proud of
these beautiful fields and
we are seeing more student
support for our games,
especially for soccer and
softball.
”
-Karen Klassner,
Director of Athletics

ADVANCING THE LEGACY: HOW THE CAPITAL CAMPAIGN TRANSFORMS LIVES
A Legacy of Artistic
Achievement
The new Allan P. and Marian
Sutherland Kirby Center for
Creative Arts, completed in time
for the beginning of the 2014-15
academic year, provides a longneeded, enhanced facility for Sem’s
highly regarded dance, music and
theater programs. The two-story,
34,652 square foot structure
features a 600-seat auditorium, an
art gallery, studios, rehearsal halls,
classrooms and offices. The F.M.
Kirby Foundation provided the
$7.5 million lead gift for the $16.3
million project.
“
One only needs to review the
annual graduating class list
to appreciate the numerous
students matriculating to
some of the top visual and
performing arts universities
in the country. We wanted
to make sure the physical
environment was as special as
the program.
”
-S. Dillard Kirby, president and
director, F.M. Kirby Foundation

ADVANCING THE LEGACY: HOW THE CAPITAL CAMPAIGN TRANSFORMS LIVES
A Legacy of
Transforming Lives
Through the generosity of parents,
alumni and friends, Wyoming
Seminary has made considerable
progress toward reaching the
total goal of $40 million in
support of academic, arts and
athletic programs, facilities and
endowment. More than $38 million
has already been contributed
toward the Kirby Center for
Creative Arts, the Nesbitt
Memorial Stadium, the Maslow
STEM School, the Early Childhood
Learning Center, renovations to
the first floor of Lower School and
the third floor of Sprague Hall at
Upper School, and other facilities
and program enhancements.
With the final goal in sight, the
school is seeking support to complete
the campaign’s objectives, including:
• Complete funding for Nesbitt
Memorial Stadium
• Complete funding for the Kirby
Center for Creative Arts
• Enhance the school’s financial
aid and faculty development
endowments
Over the years, Wyoming Seminary
has grown into a remarkably
distinctive independent school with
a very complex mission: to serve
both young men and women, day
and boarding students, toddler
through postgraduate, from the
Wyoming Valley and from around
the world. And in order to continue
serving these diverse students and
enabling them to make significant
contributions to their communities,
Sem requires superb teachers and
superb facilities and programs. The
Advancing the Legacy campaign
is an extraordinary opportunity
for all who care for and support
Wyoming Seminary to ensure that
the legacy will indeed continue for
future generations.

institution at all times but in
particular during the period from
July 1, 2013 to June 30, 2014.
The table seen at the bottom of this
page is a comparison of giving for
the last five fiscal years.
OUTCOMES…
Webster’s Dictionary defines
“outcome” as 1. a final product or
end result; consequence; issue, and
2. a conclusion reached through a
process of logical thinking.
It can be argued that for 170 years
there has been an “outcome”
each year as Wyoming Seminary
concludes one fiscal year and
prepares for the next – there is
indeed an end result. As we look
back on the 2013 - 14 fiscal year,
however, the cumulative outcomes
of the past nine years are clearly the
result of a process of logical thinking
that has put the School on the cusp
of concluding its most successful
capital campaign ever. Alumni,
parents and friends have opened
their hearts to Sem, and the school
has put their gifts to work – building
and renovating facilities across the
campuses, and enhancing academics,
arts and athletics, all to better serve
our students, faculty and parents.
You have seen the results to date
visually displayed on the preceding
pages of this report.
On behalf of the entire alumni /
development team, I extend my
heartfelt thanks and gratitude for
your support of this wonderful
The 2013 – 14 campaign represents
the fourth most successful fund
raising year in the school’s history
and marks the first time in history
where gift receipts have totaled more
than $5 million for four consecutive
years. While a great deal of time and
volunteer leadership was focused on
the capital campaign, we are also
pleased that under the leadership
of Amy Valli Bennett ’94 and Jeff
Metz ’88 we were able to exceed our
annual giving goal of $1.2 million.
Amy, Jeff and their team, especially
the members of the Leadership Gifts
Committee, did an outstanding job.
Since October 2001, Wyoming
Seminary has been approved by the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
as a “Scholarship Organization”
under the guidelines of the
Educational Improvement Tax
Credit (EITC) program and since
August 2012 under the guidelines
of the Opportunity Scholarship Tax
Credit (OSTC) program. Through
these programs, Pennsylvania
corporations who pay certain
state taxes can make a gift to the
scholarship program at Sem in
lieu of paying up to 90% of those
state taxes if the company makes a
two year commitment. More than
$450,000 was contributed to these
two programs and we are most
grateful to the following companies
for their support during the current
fiscal year: AJO LP, Benco Dental
Company, Carr & Duff Inc.,
Community Bank N. A., Fidelity
Deposit and Discount Bank, First
Keystone Community Bank, First
National Bank of Pennsylvania,
First National Community

Trust Company, Petroleum Service
Company, PNC Bank, Snyder &

Services, Straub Metal International,
Topp Copy and the United Way of
Wyoming Valley.
A school like Wyoming Seminary
has not been able to grow and
develop the way it has, however, by
current gifts alone. Indeed many
of the gifts that have helped to
build the School’s endowment to a
market value of $56.7 million on
June 30, 2014 have come in the
form of bequests and deferred gifts.
Since 1982 Wyoming Seminary has
received more than $21.5 million
in estate gifts. We are honored

LETTER FROM THE VICE PRESIDENT OF ADVANCEMENT
the following alumni and friends
continued this legacy during the
2014 fiscal year with bequest
distributions coming from each of
their estates to Sem:
Wayne Clements
John Mueller ‘52
Richard Pearsall
Marjorie Kniffen Richardson ‘25
As noted in the message from
Dick Goldberg and Mary Lopatto,
the School’s capital campaign
will conclude on June 30, 2015.
From the outset, we knew that
reaching the ambitious objectives
of the campaign would require
unprecedented generosity and
support from the entire Sem
community. We knew that by
accomplishing these goals, we would
advance Wyoming Seminary to new
levels of excellence. As we ask our
students to go above and beyond, we
now must ask our alumni, parents
and friends to help lift Sem from a
place of regional prominence into
the ranks of the nation’s very finest
independent day/boarding schools by
helping us to raise $2 million by June
2015 to fully fund all that has been
accomplished since the inception of
the capital campaign.
Thank you – two very simple yet
important words. We know that
you face tough decisions each year
on how to allocate your resources
and I want to assure you that the
entire Alumni/Development Office
staff never takes your gifts for
granted. On behalf of the students
and faculty who are the ultimate
beneficiaries, I express our gratitude
and the hope that we will continue
to merit your continued support in
the years to come.
Sincerely,

About the Westlake Society
The Westlake Society recognizes those alumni and friends of Wyoming
Seminary who have indicated that they have made provisions for a gift
to the School in their estate plans, or through membership in The Living
Endowment Society. This recognition society was previously known as
The Planned Giving Honor Roll, but was renamed in memory of Emory
H. Westlake, Class of 1896, in recognition of and with appreciation
of his generous bequest to the School in 1996 at the time of the 150th
Anniversary Campaign. Mr. Westlake creatively planned his estate in
order to maximize his giving to those charities most important to him.
Within a few months of the 100th anniversary of his graduation, Mr.
Westlake’s bequest created the Westlake Scholarship Endowment Fund
at Wyoming Seminary. The School feels his wise use of charitable and
estate gift planning is an example for others to emulate.
In addition to the names that follow, there are others who have included
Wyoming Seminary in their estate plans, but at their request, their names
are not listed.
