    There is plenty to beexcited about on the DefianceCollege campus this spring,highlighted by the open-ing of the much-anticipated84,000-square-foot GeorgeM. Smart Athletic Center.

    The center includes aregulation 200-meter indoortrack recently named the

    Richard M. and Carolyn M.Small Track, and an insidetrack that will accommodatetennis, volleyball and bas-ketball courts. The facilityalso includes the Duane C.Hocking Training Room,weight room, locker area, andoffices. The Randall L. andMarilyn A. Buchman Fitness

    Center will continue to bea dual partnership with theDefiance Area YMCA.

    Opening the new com-plex will enhance DefianceColleges athletic facilitiesand programs while playinga significant regional role asthe setting for major non-college events.

    While Defiance Collegecontinues to remain the col-lege of choice for a largenumber of Northwest Ohiostudents, there is a deliberatecampaign to recruit nation-ally to create a broader geo-graphic diversity on campus.In the past year, applicantsfrom 48 states and territories

    applied for admission to DC.Nearly 40 percent of the cur-rent freshman class has comefrom outside of Ohio.

    New students are attractedto many of the distinguishingprograms offered at DefianceCollege including inter-national travel and under-graduate research throughthe McMaster School forAdvancing Humanity; agrowing music program; newintercollegiate athletic teams(swimming and lacrosse); andexpanded cultural programsoffering trips to Chicago,New York City and otherdestinations for concerts, the-ater, and art.

    Best of both worldsStudents are attracted to

    Defiance College becauseof its size, which allows forindividualized attention whileat the same time offers a widerange of opportunities thatwill enable them to stand outin the job market and whenapplying to graduate schools.

    With the guidance of com-mitted and dedicated faculty,students experience innova-tive programs that link whatgoes on in the classroom withthe realities of the outsideworld. They receive hands-on experience in their field ofstudy through quality intern-ships, domestic and interna-tional travel, diverse culturalexperiences and distinctiveservice and research oppor-tunities.

    The following ImagineInitiatives have been intro-duced to enhance every stu-

    dents academic experience:DC Global is an opportu-

    nity for every entering full-time freshman who completesthe full four-year program atDC to travel to a foreigncountry during their yearsat Defiance. These interna-tional experiences take placeduring the junior or senioryear. They could be a course-embedded experience, afaculty-designed trip, a self-designed project through theMcMaster School, an Honorstrip, or as a scholarship tohelp pay travel costs for asemester or year-long studyabroad program.

    Cultural/Performing ArtsInitiative in which everystudent has an opportunitybefore graduating to attend awide range of mind-broaden-ing cultural experiences suchas symphonies, operas, bal-lets, musicals, and art andscience museums in NewYork City, Chicago, Detroit,Toronto, Cleveland and othercities.

    DC to D.C., an initiativein which every student has anopportunity before graduat-ing to experience our nationshistory firsthand, travel-ing to Washington, D.C.,Philadelphia or other places

    of historical significance.DC EDventures is a

    domestic travel initiative inwhich every student has anopportunity before graduat-ing to travel for 7-10 daysdomestically with facultymembers for an enrichmentexperience related to the stu-dents major.

    Project 701The newest example of

    real-world experience that joins classroom knowledgewith service is Project 701,

    an incorporated nonprofitorganization that gives stu-dents an opportunity to cre-ate, develop, manage and runa wide range of projects. DCstudents serve on the board ofdirectors along with admin-istrators, faculty and alumni.Management and staff posi-tions are held by students.Interdisciplinary projectteams offer a multitude ofopportunities for students tolead, learn and bring aboutpositive change within neigh-boring communities.

    Earlier this year, the new-est Project 701 initiative,Defiance Cares Free Clinic,opened its doors. A group ofstudents assembled a collab-orative with Mercy Hospitalof Defiance, the DefianceClinic and PromedicaDefiance Regional Hospitalto provide a free primarycare health clinic. DefianceCounty residents who areuninsured or otherwise inneed of medical care are eli-gible for medical services atthe monthly clinic.

    The list of Project 701initiatives is impressive andgrowing. DC PC Solutionswas formed by digital foren-sic science students to pro-vide computer repair andrelated services to the localcommunity.

    Graphic design studentsstarted a design studio,Creating Defiance, offeringdesign services to nonprof-it organizations and smallbusinesses. Business stu-dents involved in Students inFree Enterprise (SIFE) havestarted an effort to provideloans to microbusinesses inJamaica.

    The Backpack Buddyprogram involves numerouscommunity partners to pro-vide backpacks filled withfood for scores of area chil-dren who qualify to receivemuch-needed nutrition forthemselves and their siblingseach weekend. DC studentscoordinate the logistics ofthe program, purchasing foodand scheduling volunteers tofill the backpacks at St. JohnUnited Church of Christ.

    Opportunities aboundDefiances strong academ-

    ic programs are preparing stu-dents to be competitive in thejob market. While developingprofessional skills, they arelearning in a liberal arts set-ting that encourages growthas an individual. An envi-ronment of commitment tosuccess begins at orientationwhen students meet individu-ally with a team of advisersto develop their own PersonalSuccess Plan that will strate-gically map out their collegegoals.

    National advisory boardsin many majors bring togeth-er experts from across thecountry to provide real-timeand real-world advice. Theseboards include many of DCsown successful alumni.

    Defiance College headstoward an even brighterfuture, fulfilling its missionby providing a strong liberalarts education. Outstandingprofessional preparation com-bined with engaged learningexperiences give students theopportunity to develop theircareer skills in local commu-nities and around the globe,

Carlisle-Syntec, leadingroofing manufacturer, award-ed Cotterman the CarlislePerfection Award, whichonly the top 15 contractorsin the nation have earned thisachievement. This distinct rec-ognition is based on a series of

    metrics, including installationquality ratings and warrantyclaim performance. Alongwith the award, Cotterman ison the Perfection Council thatworks directly with Carlislesmanagement to continuouslyimprove the product and tech-niques of installation.

    Cotterman also receivedCarlisles 2012 Excellence inSingle-Ply (ESP) for the 3rdconsecutive year. ESP status is

The company is com-

    mitted to exceptional installa-tions for years to come.

    The National RoofingContractor Association issueda few tips when selecting acommercial roofing contrac-tor:

    Select a contractor thathas been in existence for atleast a period of ten years andis a BBB accredited business.

    Check references onprojects similar to yours.

    Residential or general contrac-tors may be extending them-selves beyond their normalscope of work. Hire a special-ized commercial roofing con-tractor.

    Request a manufac-turers warranty so the roofremains warranted regardlessof a contractors existence.Also, ensure they carry theproper liability and workerscompensation coverage.
