In the Fall issue of the Alumni Journal, you may remember that we interviewed individuals who excelled in various capacities outside of their daily routine by following their ‘passions’.

In this issue, we want to focus on The Giving Spirit. It is no surprise that many members of the ONU family graciously donate their time and resources to make their communities and our world a better place.

In the pages that follow, you will learn how graduates and current students have given back in so many ways, whether it be by working for Engineers without Borders, volunteering for Habitat for Humanity or coordinating food drives for those in need. Also, you’ll read about alumni who have given back financially to Northern,

boxes to ONU students during fall quarter exams.

whether it be as a Lehr Society Member supporting The Campaign for Ohio Northern University’s Tomorrow or as a young alumnus who has joined our GOLD Society.

At Northern, our mission is and always has been education FIRST. We encourage our students to excel in the classroom but also to explore beyond the classroom and to give back to others in their own individual ways. An ONU education instills the importance of service and focusing on the common good rather than one’s own self-interest.

This issue also includes one of my favorite parts of the Alumni Journal, namely “The Ties That Bind.” As you know, this section always features stories inspired by friendships

that began at Ohio Northern and have lasted, in some cases, sixty plus years. Many of us, like the illustrations shared in this journal, are all bound together by the relationships we have built at Ohio Northern University—friendships that will last a lifetime.

Enjoy this issue of the journal and please accept Toby’s and my very best wishes for a warm, happy and fulfilling 2010. May you always remember to have in your heart, a Giving Spirit and to stay in touch with your ties from ONU. Thank you for all you do for Ohio Northern University.

50 Campus Connection

The giving spirit abounds on Ohio Northern University’s campus. Students experience it each day in their interactions with the dedicated professors, caring alumni and generous donors who make up the ONU community.

After graduating from Northern, many ONU alumni carry their passion for service into their new lives. For some, service becomes a vocation; for others, it becomes an avocation. Despite the demands of careers, graduate school and families, they continue to share their gifts for the betterment of society.

In the following pages, you’ll discover that the giving spirit is determined and joyful through the voices of alumni and students who have made service to others a way of life.

“I told him, ‘Dad, you almost died.’ He says, ‘I’m not going to die. I’m going to live long enough for you to get out of school. I’m probably not going to live long enough to raise the rest of these kids. But I’m counting on you to get out of school and help your mother.’ And that was when I really learned how to focus in life. The next four years, I focused more in my life than I think I have ever focused since.”

Even with this renewed focus, college challenged Cates on several fronts. Academically, he felt like everyone else had a head start, because his high school had not prepared him well for the mathematics he needed for engineering. This would soon change.

“I studied 15 hours a day; that’s about how long I had to study to keep up,” he recalls. “Because I was so far behind everybody, I used to spend six hours a night just on my math.”Socially, Cates found himself in a very unfamiliar world. “Most of the kids on campus were from the middle class,” he explains. “What they thought were problems weren’t problems for me. It was the first time I had three meals per day, and they were complaining about the food. I thought it was the best food there was!”

Academic and social struggles weren’t the only hurdles Cates faced. “At the time, I think I was only the second black kid in the engineering school in 100 years at Northern. This was the civil rights era. So it was just really hard.”

“Jim was a freshman in Lima Hall, where my wife, Gretchen, and I lived,” says William Robinson, BSEd ’61, Hon. D. ’05, H of F ’05, then dean of men and head resident of Lima Hall. “There’s an interesting story about white students and their parents refusing to have Jim as a roommate. The local minister of one of the students even came to me to protest the rooming situation. Neither of those students survived ONU, but Jim graduated with honors.”

Of course, Cates emerged from this situation a better person. “People would seek me out to put their kids in the room with me so I could tutor them,” he says. “I became a pretty good math tutor, and that helped me make some money so I could send it home to my mother.

James E. Cates, BA ’67, had just graduated from Columbus East High School, and his immediate plans called for enlistment with the U.S.

Air Force. One of 12 children, Cates never put much thought to college education. He didn’t exactly pay much attention to his high school career, either. Working late nights at restaurants, attending high school three or four times a week, Cates was more concerned about earning money to help his family. College just wasn’t in his world.

But then a strange thing happened.

An offer he almost refusedCates received a mysterious phone call from Dr. Harold Eibling, superintendant of Columbus Public Schools and chairman of the board at Ohio Northern University. Eibling explained to Cates that four anonymous area businessmen were willing to finance Cates’ college education, as long as he adhered to four conditions: He had to attend one of three specific schools. He had to major in engineering. He had to maintain a 3.0 GPA in every quarter. Finally, he could not make any attempts to discover the identity of the four benefactors.

Cates sat on the offer for two days before mentioning it to his mother. College was so far away from what he knew, so far away from anything he ever thought about, he found it difficult to take higher education seriously.“I wasn’t going to go. But my mother pushed, so I went back to see Dr. Eibling again,” he says. “We talked, and he suggested Northern. He said, ‘I’m the chairman of the board, so if you need help or guidance, it’s the school I know best.’ So that’s why I came` to ONU.”

Cates stepped on Ohio Northern’s campus as a freshman in fall 1963. With low expectations, he called his Air Force recruiter, explaining that he was going to give college a try, but would most likely be available for enlistment in January.

His Northern experienceA few weeks into his Northern journey, a moment of tragedy provided the intense focus Cates needed to survive. After years of working in foundries, his father suffered a heart attack. Cates traveled home on a rainy night in September 1963, expecting to drop out of school to help care for the family. His three older brothers were in the military, and his three older sisters were married, so he felt like he was the only one left to help his mother. He went to the hospital to visit his father, who sat up in his bed and asked his son what he was doing in Columbus, away from Ada and away from his studies.

University, Clarion University, Ohio State University, UC Berkeley and Foothill-De Anza Community College District) and another charitable organization: the Glow Foundation.

Glow FoundationIn 2006, two Stanford University graduate students approached Cates, seeking his involvement with the Glow Foundation, a nonprofit organization that addresses the financial barriers facing high-potential, low-income students as they attempt to enroll in college.

The Glow Foundation does more than give out scholarships to deserving students. It educates and explains basic financial principles. Participating students work with mentors to learn about budgets, how set up bank accounts and where to apply for scholarships. The students must then put together a college budget that details what schools they would like to attend, how much it costs and how they plan to pay for it. Glow mentors and board members then examine the students’ progress, analyze the submitted budgets and distribute scholarships that fill in the gaps. Glow partners with Wells Fargo and Silicon Valley Bank and their volunteering employees to effectively deliver this student mentoring and financial training.

Cates played a large part in funding Glow during its first year. He serves as a chairman of its board, and several other board member mentors have come from his network of colleagues.

“2010 will be a difficult year for Glow funding due to the economic challenges all organizations are facing,” he says. To date, Glow Foundation has provided financial education to approximately 580 students and college scholarships to 79 students.

“Just like me, it’s the first time they’ve had anyone actually tell them about a world outside of where they live,” says Cates. “They’re in really dangerous areas, and it’s a tough life for them. Just like mine was for me.”

“I’ve helped kids all my life since I left ONU,” he continues. “It’s just a passion inside of me, because I know what would have happened had someone not helped me.”

The importance

of giving backWhile Cates readily acknowledges the impact his Northern education and experiences have had on his life, to this day he still has no idea about the identity of those four mysterious businessmen.“The deal was I never try to find out. I honored that. So no, I don’t know who they were,” he says.He can, on the other hand, cite a handful of people who made his educational journey possible: his mother and father, Harold Eibling, Bill Robinson, Frank Bringle McIntosh (president of the University from 1949-66).

“There were a lot of people who helped me as I tried to move into a world that I had never seen before,” he says. “These people helped me get the courage to make the jump to a higher standard of living, and I have traveled the world. But more than that, this adventure helped me define a magnificent purpose for my life: mentoring and helping youth, the guardians of the nation’s future.”

Because of his life experiences, Cates understands how important it is to repay the kindness afforded to him by others. He urges other graduates to do the same.

“Once you get your degree, don’t forget to give back. Especially if you’re like me, where somebody helps you turn your life around. As far as I’m concerned, it’s a requirement for you to give back and help at least one more person.”And that’s just what Jim Cates has done, several times over.

“Every quarter I got better and better. I eventually graduated cum laude.”

Welcome to the tech worldAfter graduating from Ohio Northern, Cates earned a master’s degree in computer and information science from Ohio State University before beginning a long career with IBM. “I managed worldwide languages, databases, artificial intelligence, etc. I did a lot of research and development and worked my way up to corporate director at IBM,” he says.

Cates left IBM after 21 years, taking executive leadership, WW IT deployment and corporate VP management positions with a number of companies in California’s Silicon Valley, including Altera, Brocade, Information Technology Solutions (now Keane Consulting), Synopsys and Silicon Graphics.

“I became a specialist at working at a company for three to four years, taking on the task of transforming the entire company – people, business processes and technology. I rolled out worldwide business integration systems, what you call ERPS (enterprise resource planning systems).”

CIO Scholarship FoundationAlong the way, Cates co-authored two books, CIO Wisdom and Climbing the Ladder of Business Intelligence. He convinced his fellow authors to devote the books’ royalties to a scholarship fund, and, just like that, the CIO Scholarship Foundation was born. He’s been president of the group since 2003.

To continue funding this foundation, Cates developed his “rent-a-CIO” model, in which companies donate $5,000 to the scholarship fund in exchange for two hours of consultation with three volunteer CIOs. During these two-hour sessions, the CIOs evaluate new opportunities and technologies for the donating companies.To date, the CIO Scholarship Foundation has distributed more than $160,000 in scholarships. The Foundation is involved with four universities and a community college district (San Jose State

Not your typical attorneyThat’s Travis Elms, JD ’04, a judge advocate general (JAG) in the U.S. Army. As a JAG, he primarily acts as a military prosecutor. But there’s more to it than that.

“When I was in Iraq, I was the sole legal advisor for a 4,000-person unit, and I practiced contract fiscal law and prosecuted individual misconduct cases. I also served as a legal advisor for administrative investigations and practiced international and operational law.”

Elms attended Ohio Northern University’s Pettit College of Law because he knew he wanted to be a lawyer someday. He just didn’t know what he wanted to specifically do or practice. He needed a career to match the aspirations. This all changed during his second year at ONU.

“In law school, a JAG officer came to campus and conducted interviews for an internship position during the summer between my second and third years. So I did the interview and was offered a six-week internship at Aberdeen Proving Ground in Maryland.”

Sensing that he had discovered the perfect fit, during his third year of law school Elms applied to enter the U.S. Army. He was accepted in December 2003.

Close your eyes and picture your typical lawyer. You might see a perfectly tailored suit, legal brief in hand.

Now drop the briefcase and replace it with a rifle. And mess up the hair with a heavy helmet. Trade the suit for camouflage fatigues.

Service and sacrifice

8

“Somewhere inside me, there was a calling to serve, and when I found the JAG Corps, it was almost like a light bulb going off. I realized, ‘This is what I think I went to law school for. This is what I enjoy doing.’”

Elms says he has always been patriotic and always interested in serving. Yet he never realized the breadth of career options available with the armed forces. If he had known, he may have enlisted much sooner. “I was pretty naïve, and I thought everyone in the Army was just an infantry soldier,” Elms says. “I didn’t realize that there were many other professions. You can be a nurse. You can drive a truck. You can be an engineer. You can do a communications job. You can work exclusively as a law enforcement officer or a criminal investigator.”

Elms officially joined the Army in January 2005. He was deployed to Iraq in July 2007 and remained there for more than 15 months. He’s currently stationed at Fort Bragg in North Carolina.

Not your typical soldierWhile in Iraq, Elms served many roles, and no two days were ever the same. At times, Elms acted as a trusted advisor to his commander. “They say that 10 percent of a commander’s job demands 90 percent of their time,” he explains. “So it was rewarding to be able to shoulder some of that burden and tell the commander, ‘I’m going to take that burden, filter it, fix it and then feed it back to you in manageable pieces so that you can focus on the mission.’”

At other times, Elms worked with contract and fiscal law. His unit dealt with engineering and reconstruction (building schools, hospitals, etc.), and Elms was tasked with the fiscal elements of these reconstructions. “It’s very complicated to spend money appropriately. To spend improperly is a criminal offense,” he says. “So I was the legal advisor, making sure the right money was spent on the right projects. And I spent a lot of time advising on contracts.”

Elms performed operational law, too, instilling the rules of engagement to his fellow soldiers so that they could operate in accordance with the Law of War.

“I would meet these guys before missions, brief them on the current rules of engagement, and assure them that they had all the necessary tools to make the right decisions,” Elms explains. “These are tough young kids, but they always have a fear in the backs of their minds that they’re going to do something wrong or they’re going to hurt somebody that they shouldn’t hurt. Or

they won’t react in time, and they’ll end up being hurt or their fellow soldiers will be hurt. I found it personally gratifying to ride along with these guys, be a part of their daily lives and give them confidence.”

The futureFive years into this journey, Elms acknowledges the sacrifices required from a military career. His family moves frequently, and when not deployed he often travels to places like Korea for weeks at a time. Because such things can be very taxing on a family, Elms’ future seems to be up in the air. While Elms enjoys what’s he doing and would “love to stay for 20 years,” his wife, Elizabeth, although extremely patriotic and supportive, may have other ideas.

“I only get 49 percent of the vote,” he says, laughing.

‘To whom much is given, much is expected’

10

Engineers without bordersThe family of Kate Johnson, BSCE ’07, bestowed upon her two invaluable gifts: a natural aptitude for engineering and a sincere belief in the words of St. Luke, “To whom much is given, much is expected.”

These gifts have guided Johnson’s young life. They’ve led her to a successful career as a civil engineer and inspired her to reach out to residents in developing countries who are in desperate need of clean water. “It’s hard to imagine that some people don’t even have access to fresh water when I have so much,” she says. “Giving back is a way to restore the balance.”

Johnson inherited her engineering gene from a long line of ancestors. Her father, two grandfathers and two great-grandfathers were all engineers. “I was just 3 years old when I knew I wanted to be an engineer,” says Johnson, with a laugh. When she graduated from Ohio Northern in 2007, she became her family’s fourth generation, but first female, engineer.

After graduation, Johnson joined Burgess and Niple, a prestigious engineering and architectural firm in Columbus, Ohio, where she works on a wide range of water-related projects, including financial rate studies for water and sewage, flood mapping for municipalities, and waste-water treatment systems for manufacturing companies.

Shortly after starting her new job, Johnson began to give back. She became

a founding member of the Central Ohio Professional Chapter of Engineers Without Borders (EWB).

EWB’s mission is to partner with developing communities to improve their quality of life through the implementation of environmentally sustainable, equitable and economical engineering projects. Volunteers include engineering students, professors and professionals who want to make a difference.

Johnson accepted the lead role for a EWB-sponsored project to install a clean water system in an impoverished village in Cameroon, a country in West Africa. In February 2009, she and four other EWB members spent one week in the village of Batoula assessing needs. The experience was overwhelming, says Johnson. “I am so lucky I live in a developed country,” she reflects. “The conditions in which these people live, and the hardships they deal with every day, are unimaginable.”

Contaminated water is a major problem for the villagers. The village’s existing water system, built by the French in the 1960s, has fallen into disrepair and become infected with surface water. In addition, there are several weeks each year when water sources run dry, and villagers have to travel several miles for water. A lack of clean water has caused the deaths of hundreds from malaria, cholera, dysentery, typhoid and other waterborne diseases long ago eliminated in the U.S. “In my view, clean water is an essential life force,”

says Johnson. “If you have access to clean water, you will be healthy and stay alive, and from there you can begin to better your life.”

Johnson’s team took their data back to the U.S. and designed plans and raised funds for a new water system for the village. They will return to Batoula early in 2010 to install a hand-pump system. Their long-term plan calls for a solar-powered system with several water spouts throughout the village. “We’ve made a five-year commitment to the project,” explains Johnson, who hopes to extend additional help to the village in the areas of health, education and business development.

Volunteering with EWB has changed her outlook on life, says Johnson. She’s become less materialistic and more appreciative of her many blessings. She was overcome by the graciousness and happiness of the people she encountered in Cameroon. Everywhere she walked in the village, people stopped her to express their gratitude for her assistance. “They had virtually no materials goods, and yet they were happy because they had a strong sense of family and community. It gives you a perspective on what’s really important.”

Kate Johnson uses her engineering expertise to bring clean water to villagers in Cameroon, Africa, improving their health and future.

Recognizing the ‘ah-ha’ moment

12

Servant leaderWhen Peter Paige, BSBA ’00, arrived on Ohio Northern University’s campus as a freshman, he had a lucrative future as an accountant all mapped out. But his faith led him in a different direction, inspiring him to serve others as a minister in the United Methodist Church.

Growing up as the child of two pastors in Michigan, Paige knew the stress involved in ministering at small churches struggling to survive. It wasn’t the path for him, he thought. A straight-A student in high school, he decided to pursue his interest in business and become a certified public accountant.

At Northern, Paige excelled in the classroom and became a campus leader. He was a resident hall assistant, the president of Northern Christian Fellowship and an active volunteer for Habitat for Humanity. During the three years that Paige was part of the leadership team for Northern Christian Fellowship, the group grew from 60 members to 200 members and expanded

“Northern was a big part of my Christian journey.”

to offer small prayer groups and religious retreats. “Northern was a big part of my Christian journey,” says Paige. “It was a great place to grow and learn.”

During an accounting internship in Lansing, Mich., his junior year, Paige slowly came to realize that ministry was his life calling. Bored and lonely, cut off from his supportive network of college friends, he had “lots of me and God time,” he says, with a laugh. “I realized that all the church stuff I was planning to do on the side should really be my main focus. But it wasn’t an easy decision to arrive at.”

Paige completed his business degree from Northern and then enrolled at Asbury Theological Seminary in Kentucky for a master of divinity degree. His first appointment was the associate pastor of missions and finance at the Greater Leipsic Multi-Site Parish in Leipsic, Ohio. Four years later, he was appointed head pastor at the First United Methodist Church in Kenton, Ohio.

Every day, Paige serves the members of his congregation with a special blend of compassion, encouragement and understanding. He revels in what he calls the “ah-ha moments” – times when someone to whom he is ministering realizes that God loves and accepts them unconditionally.

Paige brings many gifts to the pastor position. His business expertise makes him a capable administrator of church finances. His youth brings a fresh outlook and enthusiasm to a congregation that was ready for a change. His leadership style encourages others to use their gifts to serve God. “I did not become a minister to lead a Church, but to listen to God and to equip everyone around me to do His work,” he says. “I’m not as smart as God. The Spirit will lead people. I’m just there to encourage them to become who God wants them to be.”

Paige is married to Jenny (Kline), BSME ’02, an engineer at Cooper Tire and Rubber Co. in Findlay, Ohio, and they have three small children.

Transforming lives

14

Inspired teachingIn fall 2001, Ohio Northern University hosted a talk by Erin Gruwell, the educator behind The Freedom Writers Diary book and the 2007 Freedom Writers film. Already well known for transforming the lives of students in a racially divided urban community in California, Gruwell’s presentation that day changed the life of at least one ONU student in Ada.

“Her story blew my mind,” says Stephanie Carr, BA ’05, a sophomore education major at the time. “It opened my eyes to the possibilities, and I decided that, as long as I teach, I want to work with urban kids.”

Exactly where to teach these urban kids was also quickly decided. At age 15, Carr had participated as a camper in Mountain T.O.P. (Tennessee Outreach Project), a program that coordinates mission trips for church youth groups. While in Tennessee, these youth groups volunteer on projects like building porches and sheds, painting houses, and performing yard work.

“The very first time I was in camp, I said, ‘I want to do this someday and be on staff and live here all summer long.’ So I did that for a couple of summers in college, fell in love with Tennessee and decided when I graduate, I’m coming down here.”

Looking back,

I was so thankfulSo, with career goals and locale already settled, Carr took a job teaching language arts to eighth graders in an “urban district” in Nashville, Tenn. Her first year, however, got off to a rocky start, with one class in particular presenting major problems.

“My third period made me want to cry every day when I was teaching. Every day! Picture what it’s like in the movies, but five times worse,” she says.

Full of self-doubt and feelings of failure, Carr persevered and eventually got through to them, thankful in retrospect for the way things turned out. Describing that first year as a learning process, Carr says her students taught her what it means to be strong and how to overcome difficulties with a good attitude.

It’s my calling in lifeToday, Carr teaches reading to about 120 seventh graders at Madison Middle School in Nashville, Tenn. More than just a teacher, she plays several roles during the course of a typical day. “I’m a social worker. I’m a youth pastor. I’m a mind reader, a psychologist, a mother,” she says.

The hard work is worth it, however, because helping these kids is Carr’s calling in life. Although they come from different worlds, she knows that she can make a difference. “My kids have very hard lives,” she says. “It’s a life that I will never live and never experience. They have more sadness and tragedy than I can even comprehend. But being in school every day is how they’re going to have a chance at a better life as an adult.”

“I like how much of a difference I get to make every day for my children,” she continues. “They need school, and they need their teachers in ways that the suburban or more middle-class demographic do not.”

Her efforts are paying off. Last year, 98 percent of her students (100 percent of the girl and 94 percent of the boys) met the Tennessee’s standard proficiency requirements.

“I truly believe that every child can behave appropriately and learn at high levels. So, whatever it takes, I’ll do it. I give 110 percent. It’s about them, and the numbers last year prove it.”

No matter what she has to do, it seems Carr will do it. She’s made home visits. She’s done before- and after-school tutoring. She’s met with kids on Saturdays. “I even go to basketball games to talk to parents,” she explains. “Parents who avoid official meetings at school will often be at sporting events and willing to talk.”

As dedicated as Carr is to her students, there used to be a chance that she would impact the lives of animals instead. “When I was deciding to go to college, I narrowed it down to two things: I was going to either go to Penn State and be pre-veterinary, or go to Ohio Northern and be an English teacher.”

With all due respect to our four-legged friends, the students at Madison Middle School are definitely better off for her decision.

“I like how much of a difference I get to make every day for my children.”

ONU’s chapter of Habitat for Humanity focuses on eliminating substandard housing both in the local community and around the world. In addition to raising money and advocating for housing solutions, students help to construct a home in Hardin County almost every year. Each spring, the ONU chapter sends out three teams of volunteers to cities in the southern U.S. to build homes for people in need.

ONU Recycles unites the student body in awareness and action with regard to environmental concerns. It facilitates recycling on campus, educates others on current green issues and promotes environmentally friendly practices.

“The giving spirit does not mean giving due to obligation; it means giving openly, freely and lovingly. This ‘spirit’ of giving and kindness is what makes organizations like Habitat for Humanity so wonderful.”

– Jenny Pelton, senior language arts education major from Hicksville, Ohio, and president of ONU’s chapter of Habitat for Humanity

“Smiling is contagious. One of the greatest gifts you can give to someone is to make them smile.”

– Chris Corrado, senior marketing major from Cincinnati, Ohio, and founder of Orange Noses

“Giving future generations a cleaner, sustainable world is the ultimate gift.”

– Jennifer Smith, junior mechanical engineering major from Granville, Ohio, and coordinator of ONU Recycles

Orange Noses is a service group that inspires others through the joy of clowning and professional entertainment. Members of Orange Noses share their love, make people smile and draw them closer to Christ.

At Northern, the giving spirit is

everywhere. Here are just a few

of ONU’s many student service

organizations…

“I have learned to put someone else ahead of myself without exception.”

– Gwen Smith, junior youth ministry major from Bluffton, Ohio, and mentor for Ada Friends

“Helping Hands means curbside service and a friendly smile. It shines a great light on the nature of the student body here at Northern.”

– Sarah Hatch, senior psychology major from Spring Valley, Ohio, and coordinator for Helping Hands

Ada Friends is a mentorship program that pairs ONU students with Ada elementary students. The elementary students benefit from the stable, positive influence of the college students as role models, mentors, confidantes, tutors and friends.

Helping Hands is a service group that welcomes new students and their families by providing them with physical assistance moving their belongings into the residence halls.

Science Central The Mathile Center for the Natural Sciences, which was dedicated on Oct. 16, 2009, has become the cornerstone of ONU’s signature science programs.

The student-centered academic research and learning facility blends hands-on teaching excellence with advanced technology in a functional modern environment. The building includes 21 classrooms, five seminar/conference rooms, 21 laboratories, 34 offices and four storage spaces. The 95,145-square-foot structure connects the Meyer Hall of Science with the Robertson-Evans Pharmacy building.

“One key aspect of this place is how well it brings people together,” said Dr. Jeffrey Gray, professor and chairman of the department of chemistry. “Every classroom, lab and discussion

area promotes strong interactions between students and faculty – this is really what we love to do, and what we do best. Maybe it is just my imagination, but it appears that our students even seem happy to be here in this building for classes at 8 a.m.!”

Green Chemistry Guru on CampusDr. Paul T. Anastas, known as the “Father of Green Chemistry,” was the featured guest speaker during the 2009 Keiser Distinguished Lectureship in Life Sciences in October. He spent four days on campus interacting with faculty and students. His schedule included a public lecture titled “Green

Chemistry, From Here to Sustainability,” which he delivered to a large crowd in the Freed Center for the Performing Arts. Anastas is professor in the practice of green chemistry in Yale University’s School of Forestry and Environmental Studies, Department of Chemistry and Department of Chemical Engineering. He also serves as the director of Yale’s Center for Green Chemistry and Green Engineering. His research focuses on the design of safer chemicals and chemical processes to replace the use of hazardous substances.

President Barack Obama recently nominated Anastas to lead the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) Office of Research and Development. Anastas has worked in Washington, D.C., before, serving as director of the Green Chemistry Institute from 2004-06. He also served as the assistant director for the environment in the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy. He is credited with establishing the field of green chemistry during his time working for the EPA as the chief of the Industrial Chemistry Branch and director of the U.S. Green Chemistry program. Anastas received his Ph.D. from Brandeis University where he trained as a synthetic organic chemist.

Learning and ‘Games’Staging Games turned out to be more than child’s play for Northern dancers who spent a week with Donald McKayle, a world-renowned choreographer and director, preparing for their Freed Center performance of the dance production.

“Actually having the opportunity to meet and work with someone of this caliber was amazing. We literally were working with a living legend,” says dancer Amanda Fannon, a junior communication arts major from Kenton, Ohio.

McKayle and his assistant, Stephanie Powell, worked one-on-one with dancers during their campus visit in September. This personalized approach enabled each dancer to improve their technique, balance, flexibility and confidence.

“The students were like sponges,” McKayle said. “They were very receptive, and they were eager.”

McKayle is the winner of numerous accolades, including a Tony Award for Best Musical for Raisin. He has been nominated for multiple Tony Awards in directing and choreography as well. His productions are performed all over the world, and he has choreographed more than 90 works for dance companies in the United States, Canada, Israel, Europe and South America.

The ONU dancers performed Games at the Freed Center in early October. The production follows the interactions of a group of children as they go about playing on city streets. Broken up into three parts, Play, Hunger and Terror, the audience is exposed to the relationships of the children and how they cope with the world around them.

As dance theatre, Games is unique in that there is no instrumental music. Songs from the rich heritage of oral transmission in both the rural and urban communities of the United States accompany the dance movement and are performed a cappella by the cast of singers and dancers.

Majestic BeautyFrom the abundant white swamp oak and honey locust, to the unusual mountain maple and metasequoia, Ohio Northern’s campus is populated with trees whose stately majesty enhances the natural beauty of the grounds.

The Arbor Day Foundation has honored Ohio Northern University as a 2009 Tree Campus USA university for its dedication to campus forestry management and environmental stewardship. Ohio Northern is the second institution in Ohio to be named a Tree Campus USA campus or university and among only a handful in the nation, joining such institutions as Georgia Tech and Virginia Tech.

“Over the years, we have had the foresight to plant more than 100 species of trees on our campus to use both academically and for their aesthetics,” says Dr. Terry Keiser, professor of biological sciences. “I remember when we were essentially just bare fields. Look at the natural beauty now! I am proud to have been a part of this.”

Tree Campus USA honors college and universities and the leaders of the campus and surrounding communities for promoting healthy urban forest

management and engaging the campus community in environmental stewardship. Tree Campus USA is supported by a grant from Toyota. Ohio Northern met the five required core standards of tree care and community engagement in order to receive Tree Campus USA status. Those standards are establishing a campus tree advisory committee, evidence of a campus tree-care plan, verification of dedicated annual expenditures on the campus tree-care plan, involvement in an Arbor Day observance and the institution of a service-learning project aimed at engaging the student body.

The Raabe College of Pharmacy marked its 125th anniversary with a black-tie celebration on Sept. 12 attended by more than 200 guests. A spectacular fireworks display closed the evening’s festivities. 19

polar Bear spirit on displayFresh paint and attention-grabbing banners in the main gymnasium of the Ohio Northern University Sports Center are helping the Polar Bear spirit shine.

“We are going for the ‘wow!’ effect,” said Tom Simmons, BSBA ’85, BA ’86, director of athletics. “This is our house, and we want to create an electric atmosphere for our players, the visiting teams and the fans.”

Updates include brighter paint colors, ONU logos at the end of each court, new signage, colorful banners and rail skirting. Simmons has obtained sponsorships from local businesses to offset the cost of the updates.

“We are planning cosmetic updates for all of our sports facilities in the future,” said Simmons. “We’re kicking our Polar Bear spirit up a notch.”

reaching 500 victories

Head volleyball coach Kate Witte (above center) has reached an impressive 500 career victories. She achieved this distinction when the Polar Bears defeated Hope College (Mich.) during the Wittenberg Border Battle in September.

In her 19 years at Ohio Northern, Witte’s teams have compiled an impressive 518-156 record, a winning percentage of 0.769.

“It is a great honor to be part of a very successful volleyball program,” said Witte. “The collective effort of players and assistant coaches has allowed me to reach this personal milestone.” Witte added that her biggest joy in coaching is interacting with her players and watching them grow into classy, mature young women.

The 2009 volleyball team ended the season ranked No. 6 in the final Sports Imports/AVCA Coaches poll with a 30-4 record.

From 1981-84, Lori Kane, BSBA ’86, helped the ONU volleyball team compile a cumulative record of 149-31-2 (0.824) as a four-year starter. During her senior season, Kane led the team to the Ohio Athletic Conference Regular Season and Tournament Championships and a trip to the NCAA Regional Finals. As a junior in 1983, she led the team with 297 kills and was named First Team All-OAC and First Team All-Ohio. She also earned First Team All-OAC and First Team All-Ohio honors as a senior in 1984. Kane was a two-time volleyball team MVP (1983-84) and a member of the ONU women’s basketball team for two seasons. Today, Kane is the vice president of administration at MedBen in Newark, Ohio, where she resides.

As the ONU volleyball team’s setter from 1994-97, Cortney (Roof) Simpson, BA ’98, recorded 4,153 assists (the fourth most in school history) and 216 aces (the third most in ONU history). She led her squads

to four OAC Regular Season Championships and four OAC Tournament Championships. Her teams also made the NCAA Tournament all four years and made back-to-back appearances in the NCAA Quarterfinals from 1996-97.

As a junior, Simpson was named All-Great Lakes Region and Second Team All-OAC. As a senior, she was named All-Great Lakes Region, First Team All-OAC and Second Team Academic All-OAC.

Currently, Simpson is a teacher for Clark-Shawnee Local Schools and lives in Springfield, Ohio, with her husband, Christopher, and their daughters, Reagan (6) and Maura (2). Mary (Bouic) Schmidt, BSPh ’94, was a starter on the 1989 NCAA runner-up volleyball team and went on to lead her teams to OAC Regular Season Championships from 1990-92 and OAC Tournament Championships from 1990-91. Schmidt was named First Team All-OAC and the OAC Player of the Year in 1991, and she was

a back-to-back All-Midwest Region honoree in 1991 and 1992.

Schmidt led the team in kills and hitting percentage in 1991 and 1992 and total blocks in 1989 and 1990. All time, Schmidt is fifth in total blocks (361), fifth in solo blocks (91) seventh in kills (1,212) and 10th in hitting percentage (0.288).

Schmidt is currently a pharmacist for Medco Health Solutions in Columbus, Ohio. She and her husband, Michael, live in Plain City, Ohio, with their two children, Zachary (5), and Zoe (2).

As an ONU wrestler in 1988, Brad Rogers, BSME ’90, was an NCAA All-American after finishing sixth in the 126-pound weight class at the NCAA Championships. He returned to the NCAA Championships in 1989 and 1990, and he earned Academic All-America accolades from 1988-90.

In 1990, Rogers set an ONU single-season record with 118 takedowns and won the Clyde A. Lamb Award for being the

top male student-athlete in the Ohio Athletic Conference. His 34 victories in 1990 are tied for the eighth most in school history, and he is currently in 10th place on ONU’s all-time wins list with a 98-30-1 career record.

Today, Rogers is a senior engineer at M&M Mars Inc. in Columbus, Ohio. He and his wife, Maureen, live in Dublin, Ohio. They have three children: Chris (22), John (16) and Kira (6).

Matthew Wolf, BSPh ’98, won an amazing 14 OAC Championships during his four-year track and field career. That number ranks second all-time at Ohio Northern. Aside from winning OAC Championships, Wolf also set OAC records in the 400-meter dash outdoors and the 300-meter dash indoors. Wolf helped Northern win its first OAC Indoor Track and Field Championship in 1996 due in large part to his victories in the 55-meter and 300-meter dashes. He earned All-America honors on four separate occasions.

Wolf is currently a managing consultant with Pharmacy Healthcare Solutions in Chesterbrook, Pa. He and his wife, Nicole, reside in Palmyra, Pa., with their children, Caden (3) and Carson (2).

In 1958, James G. Ricketts, BSEd ’60, led the Polar Bear basketball squad in scoring with 356 points and steals with 27. For his career, Ricketts is ninth all-time at ONU in both free throws made and free throws attempted. His 1,176 career points made him the all-time leading scorer at ONU upon his graduation, and he is now 21st on Ohio Northern’s all-time list.

Ricketts has worked as a correctional consultant since 1985 and has been the CEO of Technology Systems International Inc. since 1994. He and his wife, Judy, live in Scottsdale, Ariz., and have three grown children: Robin, Daniel and Kimberly.

Hall of Fame As part of Homecoming weekend in October, ONU’s Athletic Hall of Fame welcomed six new members.

Hula Dancing lessons. The most popular event, however, was “Smashbash.”

For a dollar, students could swing a sledgehammer at an old car painted in the Homecoming football game opponent’s colors. This was a great way for students and faculty to take a break from the daily routine of work and school!

Ohio Northern’s current athletes responded well to all of the festivities, as our nationally ranked volleyball team, men’s and women’s soccer teams, and football team each handily defeated their respective OAC opponent.

On Friday evening, six new members were inducted into the Athletic Hall of Fame. Numerous others awards were given throughout the campus, including the Distinguished Service award from The James F. Dicke College of Business Administration and the William L. Robinson Young Alumni Award.

Homecoming Weekend 2009

Class Reunions

Dr. Anne Lippert, who recently retired as vice president of academic affairs, was the grand marshal for this year’s Homecoming parade and festivities. This year’s Homecoming queen and king were Jenny Pelton, a senior language arts education major from Hicksville, Ohio, who represented Habitat for Humanity, and Sean McKee, a third-year pharmacy student from Salem, Ohio, who represented residence life.

Greek Life at Ohio Northern welcomed back alumni with social gatherings such as cookouts, golf outings, open houses, dinners and meetings. While all alumni are celebrated on Homecoming weekend, the classes of 1964, 1969, 1974, 1979, 1984, 1989, 1994, 1999 and 2004 were honored in a unique way. Underneath the massive tents set up

outside Dial-Roberson Stadium, each of these nine classes had a table set up with a large collage celebrating their time at ONU. The tent area was one of the most populated during the Homecoming festivities, as many offices and programs on campus had displays set up for alumni. The dining service also provided a well-received tailgate-style lunch for current students, alumni, family and friends.

Homecoming 2009 was a weekend filled with fun and fellowship. The months of hard work put in by students and faculty came to fruition to ensure each and every one of our visitors had a unique experience. We hope to see all of our alumni and friends back for Homecoming 2010 on the weekend of Oct. 8-10.

The campus could have been mistaken for a tropical paradise on Homecoming

Weekend, Oct. 9-11, 2009. Given the beautiful weather, Ohio Northern University’s “Tropical Tundra” theme could not have been more appropriate. Thousands of alumni and friends came back to Ohio Northern for a weekend full of entertainment, celebration and Polar Bear pride.

Hundreds of students participated in different activities held across campus throughout the week.

Events included Texas Hold ’Em, Tropical Olympics and

This award is given each year to an individual who is committed to Ohio Northern, his or her profession, and the community. The award named in honor of Bill Robinson, BSEd ’61, Hon. D. ’05, H of F ’05, who has served the University for more than 50 years in numerous capacities and has been a positive influence on countless students and alumni. In 2005, Robinson was awarded an honorary degree and named to the ONU Athletic Hall of Fame.

Jim Fenton, dean of Ohio Northern University’s James F. Dicke College of Business

Administration, presented Cheryl (Burcham) Cotner, BSBA ’68, with the Outstanding Service

Award, which honors individuals who have provided sustained and outstanding service to and

whose contributions have positively impacted the College of Business Administration and Ohio

Northern.

Murray honored with Young Alumni AwardSince 2006, Murray, an environmental specialist, has been employed by Cornerstone Environmental Group LLC, where she assists with environmental compliance issues in the areas of solid waste management, surface water compliance and air compliance. She specializes in special waste profile reviews to ensure that commercial and industrial wastes are non-hazardous in classification prior to Subtitle D landfill acceptance.

While at ONU, she was a member of the Professional Association of Women in Science, Kappa Theta Alpha and ONU BEARS.

As an alumna, Murray has served as the secretary of the ONU Alumni Board and the vice president of the Cincinnati Alumni Club for ONU. Murray and her husband, Michael, BSCE ’95, are members of the Henry Solomon Lehr Society. They reside in Liberty Township, Ohio, and have three children: Rachel, 7, and twins Jessica and Amanda, 5.

fellow brothers to give $500 or more

to have their names placed on a

plaque in the newly named meeting

room. To date, more than 70 donors

have contributed $50,000, and two

commemorative plaques are displayed

You can leave a lasting impact. Consider endowing a scholarship with a cash gift or by bequest. A scholarship endowment is a fund invested for current income and long-term growth so that it lasts in perpetuity. A designated percentage of the annual income is spent each year to fund the scholarship to help students attend your alma mater.

By funding an endowed scholarship, you are expressing a dedicated belief in Northern, now and forever, all while supporting The Campaign for Ohio Northern University’s Tomorrow and creating your own personal legacy.

The Leutholds’ gift honors the enduring commitment to student

excellence at Ohio Northern University.

Douglas Leuthold, BSCE ’76, and Renee Leuthold recognize that their education made a difference in their lives. After graduating from ONU, Doug earned his MBA at Bowling Green State University where he met Renee. He worked for Bechtel Corporation for 12 years and then formed Advanced Fiber Technology (AFT). The AFT Fiberizer process ushered in technology in the area of low-density cellulose insulation that paved the way for new advances in wall spray. Doug designed, fabricated, installed and helped startups of the AFT Fiberizer process at plants around the world. In early 2001 he opened his own manufacturing facility for recycling wastepaper into cellulose insulation and other industrial fiber applications and recently won a 2009 R&D 100 Award for their innovative Phase Change Material (PCM) cellulose insulation.

The Leutholds want to foster entrepreneurship and encourage students to find their direction in life. They’ve funded two scholarships by testamentary bequest for students attending ONU’s College of Engineering and College of Business Administration.

Alumni NewsThirty-three law alumni sworn in to the U.S.

Supreme CourtOhio Northern University’s

Pettit College of Law held its

fifth United States Supreme

Court admission ceremony

on June 8, 2009. The event

began the previous evening

with a reception and dinner at

the Hyatt Regency on Capitol

Hill with more than 110 alumni,

family members and guests

attending. The next morning,

33 ONU graduates were

sworn in to the U.S. Supreme

Court in an impressive alumni

group ceremony. ONU’s

group was one of the largest

the court had ever had.

During the ceremony, the Ohio Northern inductees were asked to stand, and the clerk called the

movant, Johnnie L. Johnson, to address the court. Johnson approached the podium and said,

“Mr. Chief Justice, and may it please the court, I move the admission of the following attorneys.”

Each name was called in the order of the attorney’s state, and Johnson then made a motion to

move the group. Once the names were read and the motion was made, Chief Justice John G.

Roberts Jr. accepted the motion, and the inductees became members of the Court.

After the ceremony, the attorneys gathered in the East Conference Room to celebrate. After

the reception, the group was escorted to the courtroom for a presentation by the curator of the

marshal’s office and then to the front steps for a group photo.

“All who participated felt a sense of pride for being a part of the Ohio Northern group and also

for now being a part of the highest court in the nation,” said Cheryl Kitchen, director of law

alumni and career services. “Everyone who took part in this ceremony was in awe of the Court

and of what was happening.”

Education alumni connect online

Each month, Ohio Northern education alumni have the chance to connect with one another

online to discuss a wide range of educational topics. The ongoing virtual program is a

partnership between the office of alumni affairs, the department of education, and a

member of ONU’s alumni board, David Michael Ingram, BSEd ’68.

Alumni participants appreciate the opportunity to share experiences, exchange ideas, and

reconnect with one another, says Dr. John Berg, associate professor of education. As a

moderator, he has enjoyed interacting with former students. “It is akin to hearing from old

friends,” he says. “When I worked with them as students, they were novices just learning about

teaching. So it is most satisfying to interact with them now as colleagues. In teaching, you gain

experience very quickly, and that meant I was able to chat with veteran teachers.”

Old friends are dear friendsFour of Ohio Northern University’s oldest alumni share a bond that stretches back more than 60 years to the World War II era on campus. Marjorie (Stedcke) Hollinger, BSEd ’48, Faye (Moore) Leuthold, BA ’48, Mertie (Parker) Schlaudroff, BSEd ’47, and Thomas “Tom” Evans, BSCE ’45, have enjoyed reconnecting over the years at Northern events and reunions.

Hollinger and Leuthold have been dear friends since college. “Faye’s sister was my English teacher in high school at Celina, Ohio. When she heard I was attending Ohio Northern, she told me to introduce myself to Faye,” recalls Hollinger.

The two first met at a meeting for freshman girls, during which the dean of

women sternly cautioned the new students to “never sit on a boy’s lap.”

“After the meeting, we made a beeline to meet; it was instant friendship. We were bridesmaids in our weddings, and both of us met our husbands at ONU,” says Leuthold. Hollinger’s husband is the late Henry Hollinger, BSCE ’49, Hon. D. ’82, an Ohio Northern University Board of Trustees member from 1981-98. Leuthold’s husband is the late Russell Leuthold, BA ’46, honored with the Distinguished Alumni Award in 1978.

“Faye is a very special person,”

says Hollinger, reflecting on

their lifelong friendship. “She is

compassionate and giving. It has been

wonderful to have her influence in my life.”

Schlaudroff, who was in the same sorority as Hollinger

and Leuthold, has also stayed in touch. She and Hollinger

have traveled to Italy together, and she often stays at Hollinger’s

house when visiting campus. In 2009, Schlaudroff was awarded the Willis

Pitcher award.

Schlaudroff and Evans were co-workers at The Coffee Cup restaurant in Ada during their college years. According to Evans, it was the perfect job for hungry college students. He remembers once being asked to work the morning shift at the restaurant. Figuring he would only have to make coffee, he agreed. “But then Dean Raabe of the College of Pharmacy came in and wanted eggs. I had never cooked eggs before in my life. I must have gone through a dozen eggs before I finally cooked two that looked halfway decent,” he says with a laugh.

Leuthold’s husband was a regular at The Coffee Cup, where he got to know Evans. “Years later, Tom and I met at Homecoming and spring alumni meetings and became fast friends,” says Leuthold.

All four friends recall the many wonderful professors they encountered while attending Northern. Because the University was struggling with low enrollment and scarce funds during World War II, many professors taught without pay – a sacrifice that made a big impression on all of them.

Though it has been six decades since they attended ONU, the ties that bind Hollinger, Leuthold, Schlaudroff and Evans to the University are as strong as ever. At Northern, they not only received a quality education, but also discovered fun, laughter, love and lasting friendship.

ReunitedIn June 1967, Carol (Vas) Murray, BA ’65, and Melinda (overmyer) Sharrit, BSEd ’65, left from Cleveland, Ohio, for a seven-month tour through 22 countries in Europe.

In 1969, Murray moved to Seattle, Wash., and Sharrit to Houston, Texas. Over the years, the two friends kept in contact through Christmas cards, letters and telephone calls but never managed to reunite in person.

Finally, in May 2009, the two were able to reconnect. Sharrit and her husband, Norm, drove from their summer home in North Carolina to Seattle as part of a two-month vacation.

During this trip, Sharrit and Murray were able to spend three days together sharing memories of their trip overseas and their time at ONU. For Sharrit, the highlight of the two-month trip was reconnecting with a dear friend.

‘The Weekend of Fools’In 1978, a group of residence hall counselors made a pact to get together once a year – no matter where they were living or what was happening in their lives. They named their annual reunion “The Weekend of Fools.”

For the first several years of the reunion, the group gathered at a cottage at Lake Diana in Michigan. Describing the reunions, Thomas Worner, BA ’78, says, “The conditions were terrible, but we always had

fun.”

As the group matured, the members decided to take turns planning the weekend each year. Over the years, the group has traveled all over the state and even out of state.

This past summer, during the third weekend in July, Douglas Burton, BA ’78, Mark Palmer, BSBA ’79, Douglas Mock, BSBA ’78, Lawrence Winkleman,

BSCE ’78, Jack Wolfe, JD ’77, and Worner brought “The Weekend of Fools” back to the campus for the first time.

During the weekend, the men stayed at The Inn at Ohio Northern University, golfed at Colonial Golf Course and reminisced as they toured campus.

The activities and events of the weekend have become more refined over the years; however, the purpose of the weekend is still the same. Burton says, “The jokes are always bad, the photos are worse, but the stories get better every year.”

“The group laughs so hard at ourselves that our sides ache,” says Worner. “We are crying and gasping for air. It’s the best medicine for one’s soul.”

These men have shared marriages, funerals, births and life together, and the ties made during their time at ONU will forever bind these individuals together.

Over the years, other members of the group have included Craig Niedenthal, BA ’78, Michael Garwood, BSPh ’78, Timothy Clemens, BA ’76, JD ’79, Thomas Bramlage, BA ’77, Kipp Kubbs, BA ’76, Patrick Hampson, BA ’77, G. Fred Wilkinson, BSPH ’79, Garry Shirk, BA ’78.

The ‘time of our lives’In July 2009, a group of graduates from the 1960s gathered for a long weekend reunion described as “an absolutely magical time.” The reunion was arranged by Thomas J. Hagan, BSPh ’65, who felt that it was past time for the members of the 1960 pledge class of Delta Sigma Phi and other close friends to catch up and rehash old times. “I have touched ONU lightly during the 44 years since graduation,” he reflects. “But what I experienced and learned at ONU has touched me daily.”

The guest of honor at the gathering was William Robinson, BSEd ’61, Hon. D. ’05, H of F ’05, the dean of men when Hagan attended ONU. The 27 individuals who gathered for the reunion came from all across the United States and stayed at Hagan’s house.

“We spent three days being in our 20s again,” says Hagan. “We ate, and we drank, and we laughed and we laughed and we laughed. Our common thread is ONU. We were all grateful for the times we had, the education, the culture and the fact that we all came together during that time in the 60s and again in 2009. It was as if we had never said goodbye.”

Celebrating the Big Five-OIn 1959, three ONU social clubs decided to formalize their organizations by joining national sororities. Alpha Xi Delta, Delta Zeta and Zeta Tau Alpha all marked their 50th anniversaries of “going national” with special gatherings this year.

Alpha Xi DeltaIn early May, Alpha Xi Delta hosted a special reunion for sorority alumnae and current members. The reunion provided an opportunity for alumnae to tour Alpha Xi’s new sorority house on

campus. The sorority moved into their new house, part of Northern’s Affinity Housing, in September 2008. During the day, alumnae and students engaged in a philanthropy

project for “Autism Speaks,” a program that Alpha Xi supports nationally. The group made modeling clay from scratch that was then delivered to local schools for use with autistic

children. In the evening, the group enjoyed a delicious meal at McIntosh Center and watched a slideshow of images of friendships and

sorority events from the last 50 years.Phyllis (Black) Gossel, BSEd ’63, was part of the first pledge class for Alpha Xi Delta as a national sorority in January 1960. “At the time, I didn’t realize the significance of that,” says Gossel. “But looking back 50 years later, I realize it was a special moment in the history of Alpha Xi Delta on ONU’s campus.”“When I was in college, there weren’t a lot of social opportunities available on campus,” she continues. “Joining Alpha Xi Delta provided me with the chance to form lasting friendships. Through the years, I have kept in regular contact with

several sorority sisters. And anytime I go somewhere and meet a fellow Alpha Xi Delta, there is

just an instant bond!”

Delta ZetaAn open house and formal dinner on campus marked the 50-year milestone for Delta Zeta in May. “The reunion was wonderfully organized, and it was great to see so many sisters that I knew and others I did not. There was a letter from our first president that made history really come alive,” said Jami (Cavinee) Dellifield, BA ’94.For Dellifield, another highlight of the evening was reconnecting with her “big sister” and “grand little,” both whom she hadn’t seen for many years. Throughout its 50 years on campus, Delta Zeta has been a source of lasting friendships. “We share a bond that cannot be described,” says Dellifield. “Delta Zeta helps women become the best they can be by providing leadership and networking opportunities. As members of Delta Zeta, we are a part of something bigger and more meaningful than we can imagine.”

Zeta Tau AlphaThe Zeta Tau Alpha Chapter celebrated its 50th anniversary on ONU’s campus on Oct. 10, 2009. Approximately 250 collegiate members, alumnae and guests, including a few members from the installation in 1959, gathered at the Howard Johnson Hotel in Lima, Ohio, for the gala event. Scrapbooks and memorabilia from Zeta’s history lined the back table, and alumnae happily revisited the Zeta memories that made their college days at Ohio Northern complete.“It was both inspiring and heartwarming to see generations of Zetas coming together, bonding over memories of their college years and revisiting the reasons why they chose to become a part of Zeta Tau Alpha,” says Alex Zoloty, a fourth-year pharmacy student from Parma, Ohio, and current president of Zeta Tau Alpha. “Many years have passed since Zeta Tau Alpha was installed on this campus, but the love and friendship that Zeta sisters have for one another has never changed. This sense of sisterhood and family brings something to its members that no textbook or class lecture could offer. It provides lifelong friendships and the experience of a lifetime.”

Soon after graduating from high school in the 1960s, James Cates, BA ’67, discovered that four mysterious benefactors had arranged for him to attend Ohio Northern University free of charge. The only caveats? Major in engineering and maintain a 3.0 GPA in each and every quarter.

Today, Cates continues to return the favor, working closely with two California charities whose missions are to send high-potential, low-income students to college. Looking back at his fairytale journey through college, Cates continues to exude a mixed sense of wonder and pride at his accomplishments at ONU.

“I called myself a Cinderella student. You know how, at midnight in the story, everything would go away? To me, every quarter was a potential midnight!”

Read more about Jim Cates and other stories that demonstrate the Giving Spirit, beginning on page 6.

It’s something straight out of a storybook
