President Virginia Horvath and Senior Class President Anthony Mercedes, a Bronx, N.Y., native, display a photograph of the new outdoor granite fountain, the Class of 2015's gift to the university. Senior class members raised
about $12,000 for the fountain that was placed adjacent to the Williams Center patio. A plaque mounted on
the fountain was donated by A.D. Titus Monuments owner Ken Haas.
MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR
It’s no secret that higher education in Western New York and
across the nation is in transition. Demographics are shifting,
curriculums are evolving and the
ways education itself is delivered
are increasing. At the same time,
local economies have yet to fully
recover from the 2008 recession.
As my two-year term as
board chairman draws to a close, I am pleased to report that
the Fredonia College Foundation is meeting these challenges head-on, working collaboratively with the university and
its top-level administrators, while capitalizing on Fredonia’s
strengths and assets.
Our outstanding Science Center, which has already boosted
enrollment in the STEM disciplines and generated significant
donations from alumni and friends to support science
education through naming opportunities, is a fine example
of university-foundation collaboration. This same type of
campaign is already in place for the Rockefeller Arts Center
(RAC) expansion/renovation that will enhance the performing
arts.
Like the Science Center, the RAC project will serve as
another opportunity for the university — which already has
an excellent reputation for its teacher preparation and music
programs — to further distinguish itself in an already competitive market.
We continue to recognize the importance of the division
of Engagement and Economic Development, headed by Dr.
Kevin Kearns, and support its mission to facilitate universitycommunity collaborations to achieve cultural, intellectual
and economic growth in the region. Additionally, the board is
working with all university vice presidents to plan for pending
changes in the ways higher education is accessed.
The Franklin Properties office building (the former Cliffstar Corp. headquarters that was given to the foundation)
and the StartUP NY initiative that provides tax incentives for
businesses to increase jobs and stimulate economic vitality
have tremendous potential to benefit the region. This building,
located in downtown Dunkirk, is a modern facility ready for
occupancy.
The Fredonia Technology Incubator, also located in Dunkirk,
is adopting a greater entrepreneurial focus that includes the
relationship between arts and technology companies, specifically playing off the university’s strengths in visual and
performing arts. It’s yet another asset that distinguishes Fredonia and is benefitting our students through internships and
other experiences as well as the region’s economy.
The ability to fund student scholarships – our primary mission for more than 40 years – continues to grow. Even though
overall investment gains were not as robust as in the prior year,
the market value of the foundation’s endowment increased
to $28.9 million at the end of 2014. The 2.6 percent increase
means an additional $33,000 will be made available to students during the 2015-16 academic year. Just over $960,000
was spent on scholarships, awards and academic programming in 2014-15, a substantial increase from the $737,325 that
was spent in the prior year.
The number of endowments managed by the foundation
grew by a healthy 14, and now stands at 433. Again, students
are the beneficiaries.
I also take this opportunity to welcome three members to
the foundation board. They are: Karl Holz, ’73, president of New
Vacation Operations and Disney Cruise Line; Elizabeth Star, a
former Dunkirk resident; and Michael Schiavone, ’73, a senior
partner in a Buffalo, N.Y., law firm and a former board member.
Also, a generous “thank you” is extended to outgoing member
David Foley for his service.
The board, which meets three times each year, is at its full
complement of 35 members and continues to provide strong
support for the professional staff led by
Dr. David Tiffany.
Richard S. Johnson, Chairman

MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
Since I became President at Fredonia in 2012, the campus has been in the midst of tremendous transformation, reflecting changes in higher education at state and national levels. Simultaneously, the Fredonia
College Foundation has been implementing a sound financial strategy to increase giving levels and market
value so that additional funds can provide student scholarships and programming.
This is a challenging — and exciting — time for Fredonia and its students, and I am glad to work with the
dedicated faculty and staff who are together writing the next chapter of Fredonia’s history.
Last year, the Fredonia College Foundation’s endowment grew by 2.6 percent, to $28.9 million, thus making it possible to increase the total value of available scholarships by $33,000. Total giving exceeded $3.3
million during 2014, while receipts during the first half of 2015 totaled nearly $900,000. That’s more than
$390,000 over the corresponding period in 2014.
The number of endowments grew from 420 to 433 in 2014. You can read about one of these new endowments, the Tom Everett Memorial Scholarship, as well as how the Class of 1959 is continuing its longstanding
support of the College Lodge, in this annual report.
The new Science Center is in its second year of operation, with students thrilled with the opportunities
to work in its laboratories and study in its classrooms and other learning spaces. Fredonia is in the midst of
another transformational construction project, the expansion and renovation of the Rockefeller Arts Center.
The first floor of the addition, which will house sculpture, ceramics, and scenery painting, should be ready
for students in December. The second floor of the addition, to be used by dance and acting students, is to
be finished by April 2016. Renovation of spaces in the original building will start as spaces in the addition
become occupied. When completed by August 2016, the $39 million project will produce nearly 40,000 more
square feet of teaching and learning space for the arts, as well as a connector to Mason Hall and a more
accessible, single entrance for arts events.
The Rockefeller Arts Center addition offers new opportunities for alumni and friends to connect with
Fredonia through naming opportunities that support scholarships, programs, and department necessities.
Pledges totaling $400,000 have been made for spaces in Rockefeller to date. A wide range of giving levels
has been established for naming spaces, beginning as low as $5,000.
Some naming opportunities in the Science Center are still available to support science education, research, and scholarship. Please contact any member of Fredonia’s development team to learn how you can
become part of these exciting projects too!
Fredonia, identified as a major player in the Western New York economy within a recent study by the
University at Buffalo’s Regional Institute, continues to raise its standing as an economic generator through
its Division of Engagement and Economic Development. I am truly excited about the prospects that have
been generated by the StartUp NY initiative and the roles that the university, Technology Incubator, and
foundation can play to strengthen our region.
This annual report highlights many ways Fredonia alumni and friends — acting individually or collectively — can make it possible to build upon this university’s strengths. Financial contributions made through
endowments and scholarships help to counter the impact of ever-declining state support. Today, less than
12 percent of our consolidated operating budget is funded by New York. Fortunately, our foundation team
has just made giving to Fredonia easier than ever before, with the launch of a new online tool that now
makes giving (including smaller, manageable recurring gifts) possible right from your phone or other mobile
device. Just visit www.fredonia.edu/giving.
Alumni and friends can also support Fredonia by serving on advisory committees and boards, giving
guest lectures and even assisting with student recruitment.
Fredonia has made great strides to strengthen its position as one of New York’s leading universities. With
your support, I have no doubt that we will all continue to make a difference in the lives of its students for
generations to come.
Virginia S. Horvath, Ph.D.
President

DALLAS K. BEAL LEGACY SOCIETY
The Dallas K. Beal Legacy Society recognizes alumni and friends who have included the
State University of New York at Fredonia in their estate plans. Their gifts come in many forms,
including bequests by will, charitable gift annuities, charitable trusts, beneficiary designation
of retirement plans, life insurance and bequest savings bonds. All are greatly appreciated and
help to ensure the tradition of excellence for generations to come.
Dr. Beal came to the Fredonia Normal School in 1958 as
Director of Education. He advanced to Dean of Professional
Studies and then in 1969 to Vice President for Academic Affairs.
In 1970, he was named Interim President of Fredonia and became
the university’s 10th President in 1972, serving until 1984, when he
became Acting Executive Vice Chancellor of the SUNY system.
In 1985, Dr. Beal was named President of the Connecticut State
University system, overseeing the state’s four colleges and over
37,000 students, and served in that position for nearly 10 years.
Upon his retirement, he and his wife, Elizabeth “Kris,” returned
to Fredonia, and in 1996 he again served as Interim President of
Fredonia. In 1997, the SUNY Board of Trustees honored him with
the title of President Emeritus.
In light of Dr. Beal’s unparalleled service, it seemed only fitting
to rename the Heritage Society, established in 1988, to the Dallas
MEMBER PROFILE
K. Beal Legacy Society. Dr. and Mrs. Beal had been consistent
and generous donors to the college foundation. They also created
the Dr. Dallas K. and Elizabeth W. Beal Award, given to an
undergraduate who demonstrates unusually strong and notable
leadership in student government and/or service to the broader
university or local community. In addition, the Beals named the
Fredonia College Foundation as a beneficiary of a bequest in
their estate plans.
When Dr. Beal passed away in 2002, Fredonia lost a marvelous
friend, tremendous advocate and great leader. But his legacy
lives on in perpetuity. What a wonderful memory it is and will
continue to be for all of us.
Planned gifts play a critical role in the future of Fredonia. We
are forever grateful for this commitment, and honor those who
have become members of the Dallas K. Beal Legacy Society.
RICH, ’86, AND PAM (CHASE), ’87, RYAN
Inspired to give back, Fredonia couple creates
Communication scholarship endowment
Designating Communication majors as recipients of a scholarship they created through the Fredonia College Foundation was
a “no-brainer” for Rich and Pam (Chase) Ryan.
Both graduates, from the classes of ’86 and ’87, respectively,
majored in Communication. And upon reflecting on their lives
over the last two decades, Rich and Pam credit their Fredonia
education for career success that ultimately led both to become
entrepreneurs.
Not to be overlooked, of course, Fredonia is where they met.
“We feel very strongly about giving back to Fredonia because
we wouldn’t be where we are today without the educational
foundation that we both received there,” the couple attest. “We
appreciate how hard students and their families work to obtain
a quality education and we wanted to play a small part to help
ease financial obligations.”
The Richard G. and Pamela C. Ryan Endowment Scholarship
Fund, launched in 2014 with an initial $10,000 gift, is designed
to benefit talented sophomore or junior Communication majors
with a financial need, with preference to New York State residents.
Rich, who has a minor in English, worked for industry trade
associations for over 12 years before starting RGR Services in
2001. He handles advertising, exhibit sales and event planning
for small-business clients, and relishes the freedom and flexibility
to be an agile problem solver that owning his own firm affords.
“The well-rounded education that I received at Fredonia gave
me the background I needed to be a viable candidate in a competitive market,” added the Farmingdale, N.Y., native who gained
hands-on experience in TV production at WNYF on campus.
Pam held various administrative roles in the corporate world for
nearly 20 years before she launched Virtual Ringmaster LLC in
2008 to provide long-term administrative services to small business owners. And like her husband, Pam also minored in English
and worked at WNYF, Fredonia Radio Systems and The Leader.
An internship in Washington, D.C. during her senior year convinced Pam to move to the nation’s capital following graduation.
FREDONIA COLLEGE FOUNDATION
The Aurora, N.Y., native echoes Rich’s sentiments about Fredonia, saying a well-rounded education helped her to adapt to the
numerous corporate positions.
Both praise the influence that several faculty members had
on them.
Rich says Drs. John Malcolm and Ted Schwalbe taught with a
passion for the industry that was contagious, and reports that he
still draws upon the knowledge that both shared.
Pam “fell in love” with Fredonia during a campus visit led by Dr.
Malcolm, who, sadly, passed away earlier this year, and added
that the staff and students were friendly and “made me feel right
at home.”
The couple, who now reside in Port Clinton, Ohio, met at Erie
Dining Hall, started dating a year later and married a year after
Pam graduated.
They attended the Communication department awards reception in the spring of 2015 and were gratified to meet Sara
Fuller and Rachel Fisher, their first two scholarship recipients.

REMEMBERING FREDONIA
In addition to annual giving, making a planned gift to Fredonia allows donors to assist the university in its growth and at the same time
help to achieve personal goals. The following gift plans often offer tax savings and other advantages to donors.
Bequests: Leave Fredonia a percentage of your estate.
Or, make a bequest of money or a particular piece of property.
Securities: Give stocks that have increased greatly in value,
particularly those producing a low yield. If you have owned
them longer than one year, you will pay no capital gains tax on
the transaction, and you can deduct the full fair market value.
Bank Accounts and CDs: Name Fredonia as the “payableon-death beneficiary” of your bank account or certificates of
deposit. You own the assets for your lifetime and have them
available for your use. Upon your death, the assets pass directly
to us without going through probate.
Retirement Plan Assets: Your most efficient estate planning
option may be leaving all or a portion of your retirement plan
to charity, because tax laws often subject these assets to the
highest combined income and estate taxes upon death. Many
techniques can be used to avoid combined tax rates of nearly
65 percent. At the same time, you can pass more tax-favored
assets to your family.
Charitable Gift Annuity: This is a simple contract between
you and Fredonia that pays you a fixed dollar amount for
your lifetime. The older you are, the higher your annuity rate.
If you use appreciated property to fund the gift annuity, you
will escape the capital gains tax on the gift portion of the
transaction. Plus, you are able to spread the remaining capital
gains tax over your lifetime. You also receive a partial income
tax deduction.
Charitable Remainder Trust: A charitable remainder trust
pays a fixed or variable income to the donor. The payments are
made either for life or a period of time not to exceed 20 years.
At the end of the trust’s term, the balance in the trust supports
our mission. You’ll also receive a partial income tax deduction.
Charitable Lead Trust: This type of charitable trust pays
income to one or more charitable organizations, typically for a
period of years, after which the remaining trust assets pass to
family members.
Real Estate: This is a simple donation if you own property
that is not mortgaged, has appreciated in value, and you no
longer need or use. You can deduct the fair market value of your
gift and avoid all capital gains taxes. Plus, you have removed
that asset from your taxable estate.
Life Insurance: Rather than cancel policies you no longer
need, you could name Fredonia as the beneficiary, or simply
donate the policies outright.
Note: All gifts are subject to the Fredonia College Foundation’s
Gift Acceptance Policies.

Endowment spurs journey into scientific research
Phil Frankino is, in the words of one of his
biology professors, “driven” to succeed as a research scientist.
The senior Biochemistry major from Derby,
N.Y., spent the summer of 2014 in the molecular genetics lab of Biology Associate Professor
Scott Ferguson, and he’s back there this fall.
He has practically lived at the Science Center
since it opened a year ago.
But he wasn’t there this past summer. Phil
was in La Jolla, Calif., completing an internship
at the Scripps Research Institute, a pioneer in
biomedical research, thanks to the generosity
of Dr. Jeffery Kelly, a 1982 Fredonia graduate
who chairs its Department of Molecular and
Experimental Medicine.
Phil owes his internship to an endowment
established by Dr. Kelly through the Fredonia
College Foundation. It covered his housing expenses and provided a weekly stipend, pushing
total endowment support to nearly $8,000.
He also benefitted from a Dr. Robert Maytum
Scholarship.
Phil's roadmap to Scripps began last fall.
He attended a research presentation that
Kelly gave during the Science Center’s grand
opening and knew that Scott Gergelis, a fellow
Biology major, had completed a Scripps internship. After enlisting support from Biochemistry
Professor Matthew Fountain and Biology
Department Chair Patricia Astry, Phil connected with Kelly through Dr. David Tiffany,
executive director of the Fredonia College
Foundation.
For a riveting 12 weeks, Phil compiled
research in a two-laboratory collaboration focusing on a model of Transthyretin Amyloidosis

the peripheral nervous system.
Phil had the opportunity to interact frequently with Kelly, who provided support on
the project’s direction and held individual
meetings with Phil to help him prepare for the
rigorous graduate school application process.
The internship may open doors at schools
across the nation, including Scripps. He also
plans to share his Scripps experience with
Fredonia classmates and faculty, and apply
new laboratory experience in Dr. Ferguson’s lab.
“All of this will, without a doubt, help propel
me into the next step to ultimately accomplish
my career goal of obtaining a Ph.D. and continuing higher level research,” Phil explained, in
either academia or industry.
Ferguson said Phil “is one of the most motivated and driven students that I have had
the pleasure to work with. He stays up at night
thinking about his research project, the next
steps, and potential hypotheses.” Phil’s 'talents
at the bench,' (that’s lab-speak for the ability to
plan and manipulate experimental variables),
are second to none, Ferguson adds.
Financial support through gifts made to
the foundation helps place talented students such as Phil on the road for success.

Class of ’59 renews green vision for College Lodge
They may have graduated from Fredonia more
than five decades ago, but members of the Class
of 1959 have proven to be forward-thinkers. They
have raised, and continue to raise, significant
dollars to support sustainability projects that
benefit the College Lodge.
It was at their 50-year reunion that class
members launched a visionary campaign to
generate ongoing funding for green energy
initiatives at the lodge.
“We wanted to do something for the college,
and we felt that green energy was the thing to
do because it was costing the lodge money for
electricity,” said Senior Class President Ed Buseck.
Class members cherished the lodge, which was an
ideal setting for camping, nature walks and skiing.
The Class of 1959 wanted to show current and
future students that they had a vision for the
lodge, and the environment in general, and they
wanted to leave their mark at the College Lodge
with alternative energy sources in operation.
“Rather than building an endowment the
class decided to have all of its funds directed
immediately to support alternative energy
initiatives at the lodge,” explained Karen West,
senior director of Development with the Fredonia
College Foundation.
Starting in 2009, class members made annual
contributions through the Fredonia College
Foundation to support green initiatives. The
ongoing funding campaign was led by Diane
Coville, Ronald Harrington and Mr. Buseck.
Their donations helped to finance two wind
turbines that were installed in 2011 and remained
in operation until this past year, when one was
struck by lightning and the other was beset by
mechanical failure.
But class members had no intention of
abandoning their commitment to the lodge.
Funds that they continue to raise were combined
with the insurance reimbursement, proceeds from

the sale of scrap medal from the idled turbines,
and grants obtained by the Faculty Student
Association (FSA), which owns and operates the
lodge, to purchase a new solar-energy panel
system that was put into operation in July.
“They work pretty well; they get a good amount
of sun, and solar panels have evolved to be more
sensitive to sun,” explained Buseck, who taught
biology and conservation at Cassadaga Valley
High School and happens to live on the same
ridge just four miles from the lodge.
Also this past summer, the class established its
own pooled fund within the Doors to Opportunity
Pooled Fund to provide a mechanism to channel,
in perpetuity, financial support into new green
energy projects at the lodge. Class members can
donate gifts of cash, securities, real estate, life
insurance and bequests at any time. When the
fund reaches $10,000, the foundation will allocate
a percentage of earnings, currently at 4.5 percent,
to support green initiatives.
“Without Karen West we would not have made
it,” Buseck said, explaining that she thought it was
a fabulous idea and worked diligently to make it
happen.
Though he transferred to Syracuse University to
study pre-law (Fredonia offered only elementary
education, speech education and music
education in the 1950s), Mr. Harrington remains
connected to Fredonia. He attended the 25- and
50-year reunions of the Class of 1959 and makes
it a point to visit the campus and foundation staff
every year. He was very active on campus during
his one year at Fredonia and was freshman class
president.
“I have nothing but fond memories of Fredonia,”
said Harrington, who earned a law degree in 1967
and continues to practice law in Ventura, Calif.
“Fredonia has a unique and special place in my
heart.”

Keeper of the Dream Scholarship makes real ‘sense’
With strong academic credentials at a private
high school in Rochester, N.Y., Charlotte Passero
had considerable latitude to choose a college
or university. But it took only one campus visit,
an informal meeting with a School of Business
professor and a Keeper of the Dream scholarship
to make Fredonia her first choice.
“The first time I visited Fredonia, I knew it was
the right college for me,” Charlotte explained. She
found Dr. Linda Hall, who teaches accounting, to
be “helpful, kind and inviting.” The school’s smaller
enrollment and location were appealing as well.
The Our Lady of Mercy High School graduate
underscores the value of the Keeper of the Dream
Scholarship, citing it as the “most influential” factor
that led to her decision to enroll at Fredonia. The
sizeable monetary benefit – a $4,000 renewable
scholarship issued to four incoming first-year
students – helps make college a reality for many
academically talented students.
A wide range of donors that encompasses
businesses, alumni and friends of the university
have funded Keeper of the Dream scholarships
since the program was established by Fredonia’s
Division of Student Affairs in 2002.
Just as significant to Charlotte are the
intangibles of scholarship, leadership, and service
that accompany the award, such as participation
in multicultural activities and the Advanced
Leadership Development Program. She also
volunteers and works as a teacher aide in the
Campus and Community Children’s Center in the
before-school program.
The Keeper of the Dream program builds
leaders, promotes multiculturalism throughout the

community and offers what Charlotte describes
as “amazing opportunities.” For her, that meant a
2015 fall internship in the Office of Student Affairs,
where she’s working on an accounting project
with Vice President David Herman and Associate
Vice President Monica White.
Charlotte, a junior majoring in Accounting and
Finance, has immersed herself in a wide range
of programs and activities, including many that
are career related. As special events chair of
the Accounting Society e-board, she plans and
organizes several events each semester, including
two that she established: the "International
Accounting Day Jeopardy Tournament" and the
"Fredonia Feud Tournament."
As part of the Advanced Leadership
Development Program, she and six fellow
students created Seniors of Dunkirk, an event held
at the Chautauqua Adult Day Care Center that
connected students to clients of the center.
“It was incredibly rewarding to meet and get to
know the clients at the day care center,” Charlotte
recalled. “All of our hard work paid off when we
saw how the clients appreciated our event.”
In a community service project through the
Council for Exceptional Children, Charlotte and
other students helped teach socialization skills to
children with exceptionalities.
She has also served as an accounting clerk,
assisting with day-to-day accounting practices of
the accounts payable department at a Rochester
optical business during a summer internship.
After graduation, Charlotte plans to earn a
master’s degree in Public Accountancy at St.
Bonaventure University and take the CPA exam.

Scholarship honors legacy of admired teacher Tom Everett
“He wanted to be remembered in some way,
not just for who he was, but for what he could do
for others.”
That’s how Diane Everett frames the Tom Everett
Memorial Scholarship that she created through
the Fredonia College Foundation in honor of her
late husband, who passed away last October
following a heroic battle with Amyotrophic Lateral
Sclerosis (ALS), or Lou Gehrig’s Disease.
“Before he died, he spoke to me at length about
what sort of legacy he would be leaving behind,”
Diane recalled. “When he died, after seven years
of fighting hard against this terrible disease, I
decided that a scholarship at the school he loved
so much would be the perfect legacy for this
incredible man and teacher.”
This new scholarship will support Education
majors — ideally with a middle school concentration
— who exemplify what Tom stood for as an
educator.
Teaching was Tom’s life calling. Diane
remembers that he loved the job and going to
school every day, and colleagues and students
alike loved him because of his warmth, kindness
and generous personality.
Students enrolled in today's College of Education
would be hard-pressed to be connected to a more
gifted teacher than this 1968 alumnus.
Tom was 10 years old when his family moved
to Fredonia. After earning his bachelor’s degree,
he taught high school history in Bemus Point and,
after his position was eliminated, relocated to
Wilton, Conn., where two of his former Fredonia
High School teachers were working. He became
a middle school social studies teacher at
Middlebrook School.
Tom, who earned a master’s degree in Education
from Western Connecticut State University, was
an integral part of his school’s heart and soul.
He was a department chair, engaged in extra-

curricular activities, performed in faculty plays and
wrote and performed original songs for faculty
gatherings. He also wrote and performed songs
about American history to engage students.
At Wilton High School, Tom, who played
baseball at Fredonia, coached baseball and
softball and played basketball every week with
fellow teachers and community members.
Diane reports that his “claim to fame” at
Fredonia was being the lead singer of “The
Heard,” which performed at college dances and
area clubs and also opened for Sly and the Family
Stone in their Buffalo television appearance.
Teaching — and Fredonia, for that matter — are
part of the Everett family makeup.
Family visits to Western New York and the
campus convinced their son, Jonathan, to bypass
Connecticut schools and enroll at Fredonia to
earn an education degree.
“His father and I never dreamed our son would
think of going to school here since most of his
friends were going to UConn, but we were thrilled,”
Diane explained. Today, he’s a fifth-grade teacher
in North Carolina, and credits Fredonia for giving
him quality teacher preparation.
While in Connecticut, Diane taught foreign
languages at two schools, including her husband’s.
Retirement enabled the couple to relocate to
Fredonia. Tom, who taught for 40 years, envisioned
auditing classes and teaching part-time, but the
ALS diagnosis changed everything. Diane joined
her husband’s alma mater as an adjunct faculty
member in the World Languages and Cultures
department in 2009.
Everett family support of Fredonia goes back
many years to an award established in honor
of Tom’s sister, a secretary for over 40 years.
The Barbara Saletta Meritorious Service Award
recognizes secretarial or clerical employees for
outstanding service attitude.

<– America’s favorite stand-up
scientist, Bill Nye, delivered the
keynote address of the annual
Convocation Series to a capacity
crowd in Steele Hall Arena in
September 2014. “The Science
Guy” was a perfect fit for the
“Joy of Discovery” theme that
commemorated the opening of
Fredonia’s new Science Center.
His talk—as informative as it was
entertaining—was peppered by the
“change the world” challenge that
Nye has issued to a generation
of children that include today’s
college students. The Convocation
Keynote Address is funded by the
Maytum Lecture Endowment and
the Williams Visiting Professorship
Endowment through the Fredonia
College Foundation.

The Hillman Opera presented
“Susannah,” a masterpiece of 20th
century American music and theatre,
in November 2014. The age-old
morality tale, highlighted by stunning
Appalachian folk music themes
framed in great operatic drama, is the
third-most-often performed American
opera. The two sets of principals in
Fredonia’s production — Margaret
Van Norden and Michael Hawk,
and Danielle Beckvermit and Colin
Mann—were among more than 100
students from the School of Music and
Department of Theatre and Dance
that participated in the production. –>

<– The dedication of the new Science Center
highlighted Homecoming Weekend in October.
The $60 million facility serves over 500 students
enrolled in the STEM disciplines. Even before it
opened last fall, Fredonia saw increases in the
numbers of applications, acceptances and enrolled
students in its natural sciences programs. To date,
donors have made contributions and pledges
totaling more than $2 million in support of science
learning and student-faculty research, through
more than 30 naming opportunities in the facility.
Dr. Jeffery Kelly, ’82 (with scissors), Chairman of
Molecular and Experimental Medicine at Scripps
Research Institute in La Jolla, Calif, received his
B.S. in Chemistry from Fredonia. At Scripps, he led
a team in the discovery of a drug that cures a rare
amyloid liver disease — part of a class of diseases
that includes Alzheimer’s. He honored his family by
naming the Science Center’s new auditorium, to
thank them for their support.

Lovely Philema, Gabby Carr, Alex
Behrens, Vaughn Faison, Jimmy
Hartmann, Nathan Guarnere, Katelyn
Dietz and Kate Gratson sang with the
Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra at its
“Glorious Gershwin” concert at Kleinhans Music Hall in November 2014.
They were guests of featured artist
and guest conductor Matt Catingub.
Bruce Johnstone, Fredonia’s director of
Curricular Jazz, considered the vocal
ensemble, comprised of just one senior,
to be the “absolute cream of the crop,”
and praised their singing style as a
perfect match for the unique Gershwin
arrangements. –>

<– The Music Industry program hosted
pioneering British rock guitarists Denny
Laine, Joey Molland and Terry Sylvester
— who each recorded top 10 hits in the
United States during the 1960s and
1970s — for an informal performance
and lively discussion in Rosch Recital
Hall in October 2014. Laine was a
member of “The Moody Blues” and
Paul McCartney’s “Wings;” Sylvester
was a member of “The Hollies” and
Molland, in his second campus visit, is
the last surviving member of “Badfinger.”

The School of Music entered into an
agreement in October 2014 with the
world-renowned Pescara Conservatory
in Italy to create educational exchanges between the two institutions. Up
to three students will study abroad on
an alternating basis under the agreement, which is Pescara’s first with an
American university. Faculty will also
teach master classes. The initiative
will enable Fredonia students to learn
under some of the finest composers
and music educators in Italy, home of
opera and much of Western musical
culture. –>

<– Author Brian Castner shared his experiences
and observations with students in Rosch Recital
Hall. His book, “The Long Walk: A Story of War and
the Life that Follows,” chronicles his experiences as
the leader of a military bomb disposal unit in Iraq
and his struggles upon returning home. Now living
in Buffalo, Castner served in the U.S. Air Force from
1999 to 2007 before becoming an independent
civilian contractor to train soldiers and Marines on
bomb-disposal procedures prior to their tours in
Iraq and Afghanistan. His talk in November 2014,
part of the 2014-2015 Convocation Series, was
sponsored by the Williams Visiting Professor
Endowment and Maytum Lecture Endowment.

<– Highlights – and high notes – filled the School of Music in
March with the return of Professor Emeritus Robert Jordan. The
internationally renowned pianist joined a celebration recital at
Rosch Recital Hall that featured Fredonia alumni pianists and
drew an audience of several hundred alumni, faculty, current
students and community members. In large group photo, Jordan
(center) is joined by fellow musicians (from left): Kathryn Meyer
Toolan, ’04, teacher, Mount Sinai, N.Y.; Anne Denis, ’04, Hoffman
Academy, Portland, Ore.; Maryanne Kotylo, ’06, financial analyst,
Fort Worth, Texas; Brian Usifer, ’03, Broadway music director,
New York City; Sean Lane, ’85, music therapist, pianist, Washington, D.C., Maryland; David Curtin, ’91, professor, Lock Haven
University; Justin Pomietlarz, ’98, teacher, Amherst, N.Y.; and
James Welch, ’03, adjunct lecturer, staff accompanest, Fredonia.
Jordan, who retired from the School of Music in 2004, also conducted master classes for select piano majors and connected
with students who received Jordan scholarships. He was among
the first faculty members at Fredonia to create their own scholarship to assist students. (Right, bottom) The Mamie and Ira

Jordan Minority Scholarship and Scholastic Achievement Award,
created in 1998 in honor of Jordan’s parents, was awarded to:
(front row, Antonio Regulier; (back row): Justin Cunningham,
Dominique Kempf and Cedric Wilson. (Right, top) Jordan also
appears with recipients of the Robert Jordan Piano Scholarship
and Distinguished Lectureship (from left): Johnny Shaw, Julianna
Grabowski and Colton Garifi, along with Cedric Wilson. The Robert Jordan Piano Scholarship and Distinguished Lectureship was
established through the Fredonia College Foundation by alumni and friends of Jordan to provide scholarships to promising
piano students and to enrich learning opportunities for students.
Jordan had a reputation for demanding much of his students
and clearly brought out the best in them, and he had a keen
sense to recognize talent. Jordan earned a bachelor’s degree
from Eastman School of Music and a master’s from Julliard. He
received the SUNY Chancellor’s Award for Excellence in Teaching
in 1983 and was the Kasling Memorial lecturer in 1996.

<– Pioneering research conducted by
Environmental Sciences Professor Sherri
“Sam” Mason into the hazards of plastic
microbeads found in the Great Lakes and
other waterways was released in April by
New York State Attorney General Eric T.
Schneiderman. In the state-funded study,
Dr. Mason concluded that tiny plastic
abrasives found in hundreds of cosmetics
products are passing through a majority of
wastewater treatment plants and reaching
the Great Lakes and its tributaries. Plastic
microbeads absorb toxins and are the same
size as fish eggs, so scientists fear they are
being consumed by fish. Several states
have already banned plastic microbeads,
and Schneiderman’s report was expected
to renew a push in New York State to do
the same.

President Horvath interrupted the May 16
afternoon Commencement ceremony — with
a sports update. Her surprise announcement
to a packed Steele Hall Field House was that
Fredonia’s women’s lacrosse team had just
defeated Washington & Lee in the third round of
the NCAA Division III Tournament. Its 9-5 victory
over the No. 10 team in the nation meant the
team would advance to the Elite 8 round, ensuring
2015 would be the best in the team’s 20-year
history. In her inaugural season, Head Coach
Amy Simon, ’12, led the Blue Devils to their first
appearance in the NCAA quarterfinals, ending the
stellar season with a No. 11 national ranking — the
highest in program history. Fredonia racked up 17
wins — four more than its previous high — to finish
with a 17-4 mark. Three of those four losses were
to teams that advanced to the NCAA Final Four.
A 16-9 loss to Franklin and Marshall, the twotime national champion which was ranked No. 3,
ended Fredonia’s season May 17. –>

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the Board of Directors of the Fredonia College Foundation of the State University of New York, Inc., Fredonia, New York
We have audited the accompanying financial statements
of Fredonia College Foundation of the State University of New
York, Inc., (a New York nonprofit organization) which comprise the
statement of financial position as of December 31, 2014, and the
related statements of activities and cash flows for the year then
ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with
accounting policies generally accepted in the United States of
America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair
presentation of financial statements that are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit
in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in
the United States of America. Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements are free from material
misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the
auditors' judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due
to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditors
consider internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and
fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design
audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but
not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness
of the entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such
opinion. An audit includes evaluating the appropriateness of
accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant

accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We
believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient
and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Fredonia College Foundation of the State University of New
York, Inc. as of December 31, 2014, and the changes in its net
assets and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America. The financial statements of Fredonia College
Foundation of the State University of New York, Inc. as of December 31, 2013, were audited by other auditors whose report
dated March 27, 2014, expressed an unmodified opinion on those
statements. Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming
an opinion on the financial statements as a whole. The schedules of administrative and Franklin Properties, LLC expenses for
the year ended December 31, 2014 are presented for purposes of
additional analysis and are not a required part of the financial
statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying
accounting and other records used to prepare the financial
statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and
certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and
other records used to prepare the financial statements or the financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures
in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the
United States of America. In our opinion, the information is fairly
stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements as a whole. The schedule of administrative expenses for
the year ended December 31, 2013 was subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the 2013 audit of the basic financial
statements by other auditors, whose report on such information
stated that is was fairly stated in all material respects in relation
to the 2013 financial statements as a whole.
