Dear Alumnae/i and Friends,
The value of a Mount education is increasingly recognized throughout the nation. The College is one of Money magazine’s 2015-2016 “Best Colleges,” a list of the four-year institutions of higher education delivering the “most value” for the tuition dollar. The Mount was also one of the few private institutions in New York State to receive an “A” range ranking for “value added.” And in Washington Monthly’s The Other College Guide (a ranking of 1,500 four-year institutions) the College was selected “Best Bang for the Buck,” based on net price, retention rates, graduation rates, and graduate earnings.
Based on measureable outcomes, the College is undeniably impressive. We are appropriately proud. The value of a Mount education begins with academic excellence: a curriculum that cultivates critical thinking, analytical reasoning, communication skills, and ethical reasoning. There is also value beyond measure. Value is inherent in the College’s culture of service through which we cultivate the heart and the spirit.
In the following pages students and graduates define the value of their education. There is no single reason. There shouldn’t be. In the education of the whole person, there should be and is value in everything we do.
Friends and benefactors are essential to ensuring the College’s value. Your generosity creates opportunities that equip students for life-long professional and personal success. In and outside the classroom, students are engaged and challenged to pursue excellence and the common good—to both thrive and to recognize our obligations to each other.
Thank you for your continuing support and your abiding commitment to the College’s mission and the students it serves.
Sincerely,
Charles L. Flynn, Jr.
LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT

As the cost of a college education continues to climb, a question commonly asked about every institution of higher learning is: What is the value of a college education? And how can even more value be added to what is already an exceptional education?
In July, the College of Mount Saint Vincent was recognized by Money magazine’s “Best College” issue for delivering an excellent education at an affordable price and helping students launch promising careers. Awarded an “A-” in the category of Value Added, the College’s rating reflects student performance as measured by graduation rates, student loan default rates, and post-graduation earnings. The Mount is one of only 10 institutions in New York State to receive an “A” range grade in this category, placing it above 37 other private schools in the state.
It goes without saying that the Mount continues to offer an exceptional education while working hard to contain costs and maintain strong merit- and need-based financial aid. But perhaps the real secret to adding value to a return on investment is making the most of the opportunities afforded by a Mount education. The uncommonly rich array of offerings outside the classroom, choice internships, meaningful service learning programs, and deeply committed faculty—these hidden gems of a Mount education add up to real value that is beyond price.
Here we share the stories of five individuals—three current students and two alumnae/i—who have tapped the Mount’s exceptional value for all it is worth.
The Mount’s Value: Built-In, Not Added-On

You won’t find Danica Luc ’16 on campus this fall. That’s because she is studying biology and pathology in Thessoloniki, Greece, as part of a service learning program for Mount students. Spending a semester abroad is beyond anything she ever dreamed possible. As the first in her family to attend college—and as a role model for her younger sister—Danica feels not only a responsibility, but also an immense gratitude for the doors that have opened during her years at the Mount.
Danica grew up in Queens, and chose the Mount because of its small size, which gives her direct access to teachers. It reminds her of her close-knit high school, where every teacher knew her by name. Now an honor student, she is learning discipline, good study habits, and time management skills, yet she still finds time to explore the rich array of activities that make college life a well-rounded experience.
“I love dance, so I joined Flava and Words, which are two of the many dance teams on campus,” she says. She also participates in the Caribbean Student Association (CSA), a new club that helps educate the entire student body about the many different cultures represented on campus. “I like activities where I can meet a lot of different people, and I enjoy the similarities between people instead of noticing their differences. I have so many friends I wouldn’t have made if I had stayed in my room studying!”
Her affinity for the physical sciences led Danica to do some volunteering alongside the Mount MDs, a pre-health-professional club that guides students interested in careers in health care. During spring break last year, she joined a group of biology and science students who visited with medically complex patients hospitalized at the Elizabeth Seton Pediatric Center. “We spend time with each child—reading or talking to them, or playing games. Some have been hospitalized for a long time, and they don’t get many visitors. These kids are so amazing, and not shy at all,” she says. “You’d think they’d be scared, but they opened up to us. It was really fun and rewarding.”
Danica has high praise for the Mount’s close community of teachers and learners that first drew her. “The teachers are really supportive, and
encourage you to expand your horizons. Going to Greece is not something I would have done if it weren’t for a teacher who encouraged me to make the most of every opportunity. My advisor gives me ideas for internships, scholarships—I may even apply for a Fulbright. That just never would have happened without the kind of support I have from my teachers.”
After she graduates next May, Danica will be faced with even more choices. She is considering applying for graduate school, perhaps the Global Health Corps, which sends students to the far corners of the world to engage with different cultures, or she may enter a physician’s assistant program. With a happy smile, she says, “There are so many things I want to do, I can’t decide!”

Born and raised in the Midwest, Micheal Stephens-Emerson ’18, chose the Mount to expand his horizons and enjoy a taste of life in a big city. A convert to Catholicism, Micheal also wanted a school where, as he describes it, “faith is active on campus.” One visit convinced him—and his family—that the Mount was the right place for him. “Having grown up in a rural environment, I love being close to Manhattan and the Bronx. But I really appreciate coming into the beautiful green stillness of campus, with the beating heart of the city right outside.”
Micheal hails from a small town in southern Indiana, the oldest of four children. His motivation to succeed is fueled by the awareness of what his own parents went through to make a good life for their family. His father works long, demanding hours as an industrial fabricator. His mother overcame great odds to get a college education after becoming a parent while she was still in her teens, and went on
to become a successful business owner. Their grit and determination have inspired Michael to make the most of the opportunities he has been given.
In September, Micheal accompanied Dr. Jacqueline Zubeck, Associate Professor of English, to Milledgeville, Georgia, for a conference on Southern women writers. Micheal, the only undergraduate presenter at the conference, was asked to present a paper on Flannery O’Connor. “Dr. Zubeck invited me to take her class, and I became hooked on O’Connor’s work,” he says. “My role at the conference would not have been possible without Dr. Zubeck’s encouragement and commitment. This is what I love about my professors. They invite you to become collaborators in gaining knowledge.”
Such support and opportunities, Micheal says, are abundant at the Mount. He joined the Women’s Studies Club and now serves on its executive board. Last year he helped start the History and Political Science Club. But as an English and French Studies major, he knew his bailiwick was the campus newspaper. “I joined the newspaper in part because it allows me to have a hand in every pot in the kitchen. Now that I’m co-editor, I need to know what’s going on so the newspaper can address it,” he says. “It also forces me to figure out what is most meaningful for this College and to report on it—not just for my peers but also for the future.”
Like most Mount students, Micheal takes advantage of the many opportunities for service work. “Last spring I went to Kentucky with a group of students helping to build houses with the Christian Appalachian Project. I put a roof on a trailer—me!” He grows more pensive as he continues: “I have family in Kentucky, so I’m familiar with the region, but I had no idea there was such great need so close to where I had lived most of my life. One of the people we were helping was a woman who reminded me of my grandmother. I thought, if my grandmother needed help, I’d pray for someone to help her. To be the answer to someone’s prayers—that’s awesome.”

Rose Huitzil ’18 is a Bronx girl, born and bred. She lives with her large, boisterous family in Parkchester, the oldest of five children. Rose is the first in her family to attend a four-year college, and in her words, “they think it’s pretty cool.”
While in high school, Rose first considered the Mount for its proximity to her home, but the deal was cinched the moment she visited campus. She was immediately taken with its beautiful setting and intimate size. “I came from a small high school and wanted to go where I would feel comfortable and I could be myself,” she says. “And since lots of my friends were going there, I knew I could adapt easily.”
Though her home is just a short commute away, Rose spends a lot of time on campus and keeps a full, busy schedule with five courses, a seat on the Student Government Association, as a member of the Princess Project and a retreat leader in Campus Ministry, and with a part-time job in the Office of Admissions. As a TRIO student and peer leader, she worked this past summer with the newest cohort of TRIO students, introducing them to campus life and helping them to feel at home—something she knows is vitally important for every new college student.
Rose has not yet declared her major, but says she is leaning toward Communication. “In high school, I got interested in TV and film, so in my freshman year I joined Mount Media,” she explains. “There are so many clubs that help us learn more about what we want to do. Now I have some experience working in a TV studio, and that’s really contributed toward my thoughts about a major.”
She also credits her professors with encouraging her early career explorations: “In the beginning, I expected my professors to be strict and make a lot of demands, but they were so supportive. They got me thinking about what I want to do. I wrote a lot of papers and realized that I really liked writing. My professors helped me think not only about what I wanted, but also to think about everything. There is so much to learn. Even if I don’t really like a subject, I can learn something I didn’t know before,
and apply it to what I’m working on. It has really opened up my eyes.”
Although she commutes daily, Rose is as involved in campus life as many residents. “Being a commuter student is tough; you have to manage your time so you can go to classes, study, and still be a part of the community,” she says. “A lot of commuter students just attend classes and go home. I don’t want to do that. I like to participate—a lot. Why? Because I want to graduate with amazing memories. I want to make the most of my four years here so I can look back one day and say, look at all I did, look at what I was capable of—that’s crazy!”

Talk to Al Schor ’08, a confident and charismatic financial services advisor, for more than five minutes and you’ll feel the bracing effects of his energy and optimism. “I’m very competitive, goal-oriented, and ambitious. I have a strong work ethic,” he says with a smile.
As a high school baseball star faced with a choice of excellent colleges, Al suffered a debilitating shoulder injury, “and at that point I figured it was over,” he recalls. After spending several months in rehab, Al was surprised one day by a call from the Mount’s athletic director. “He said they were starting up a baseball program, and recruited me to the school. I jumped at the chance.”
At the Mount, Al used his role as captain of the new baseball team to build relationships and leadership skills while learning all he could about business and marketing. Good time management
and careful class scheduling gave him the flexibility to explore outside the classroom. Soon he had secured an internship at U.S. Sign. “The company had no marketing plan, so I wrote one for them—and they are still using parts of it today,” he says.
After graduation, Al went to work for Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company in Westport, Conn., where he trained as an agent and financial advisor. He is by all measures a rising star—named one of the top ten financial representatives in the company’s eastern region in 2014, and earlier this year he was cited among the company’s top 20 representatives nationwide.
He credits his college experience with providing two of his most enduring strengths: team building and self-reliance. “Life deals us a hand, but we all have choices about how we play it,” he says. Al was the first in his family to graduate from college. He grew up immersed in his family’s values of working hard, seizing the initiative, and being willing to break the mold.
In September, Al was invited to speak to Mount student athletes about his experiences, as part of the College’s successful ParaMount Perspectives Speaker Series. His goal: to help instill the belief that they can achieve any dream they set their minds to if they maintain determination and a positive focus. Al swears by the value of real-world experience—something he applauds as a key component of the Oxley Career Education Program, which didn’t yet exist while he was a student. “We all learn by doing,” he says. “My internship helped me grow as a person, and I think that’s true for everyone.”
Al now lives in Fairfield, Conn., with his wife Christin and their daughter Ella, 2. He admits to having a goal to be financially independent by age 40—and it’s not hard to imagine. Whether he uses that early financial independence to spend more time with his family or devote himself to specialized business clients, Al will be doing what he always does: using his God-given strengths, maximizing the precious resources of his time and energy, and leaving what he calls “his footprint” on the world.

When Mindy Romero applied to the Mount she was interested in learning about the influences that shape people and their behaviors, leading her to major first in sociology, and later in communication (with concentrations in interpersonal communication and corporate communication). During her sophomore year, a wise and perceptive faculty member recognized Mindy’s writing ability, and suggested she take up a minor in writing, and Mindy’s career path—and passion—opened up before her.
Today Mindy is vice president of marketing communications at Sterling Brands, a brand consultancy firm, where she is working to build the company’s first formal marketing department. She has a master’s degree from New York University, where she is also a capstone advisor for students pursuing master’s degrees in public relations and corporate communication.
It’s clear she was heading in that direction even before coming to the Mount. While still in high school, Mindy landed an internship with Landor Associates, a global brand consulting and design firm. The experience turned into her first job after graduation, and she remained at Landor for a total of 16 years before making her move to Sterling.
“Looking back, I can see how my classroom studies were essential for expanding my knowledge and capabilities in the industry,” Mindy says. But it was her field studies and firsthand experiences that really brought it all home. She arranged her class schedule to allow her to spend several days a week interning at Landor. During her senior year, she took a second internship on campus in the Officer of College Relations, where she wrote press releases and worked on the annual report. She also volunteered at campus events, gave tours, managed costumes for the Players Club, and served on the Student Government Association.
And even though Mindy spent a fair amount of time off campus working at her internship site, she remained immersed in campus life. “I was very involved in the campus community, which is incredibly important,” she asserts. “Being a part of everything that’s going on enriches your experience
as a student.” She believes that campus life offered more opportunities to stretch her limits, become more independent, and, as she describes it, “to navigate different waters. Every activity I engaged in honed my skills and helped my confidence grow.”
Mindy chose to study in Italy during her second semester of her junior year. “It was wonderful,” she recalls. “It offered me a fantastic opportunity to learn in a new environment, and to test my independence.” She had always loved history and different cultures, and says that “to travel and become immersed in another culture for a whole semester was a rich, unforgettable experience. It will never leave me.”
When asked what she might tell Mount students today, Mindy doesn’t hesitate. “I’d tell them to put aside whatever they think they’re going to do, stay open, and take advantage of everything. That’s what’s so great about a liberal arts education—you have so much to explore, so many choices, so much learning that can happen with everything you do.”
After a moment, Mindy adds one more bit of advice: “Find your passion. Everyone who comes to the Mount has an opportunity to do that.”

COLLEGE CELEBRATES OPENING OF FISHLINGER CENTER FOR PUBLIC POLICY RESEARCH President Charles L. Flynn, Jr. galvanized the Board of Trustees when he announced plans to build a center for public policy research to be housed on the College of Mount Saint Vincent campus. At the time, the Center existed solely in the hearts and minds of those who envisioned a way to engage students, faculty, alumnae/i, and the community in matters of significant social import. Among these visionaries was William J. Fishlinger, a trustee of the College, who immediately understood the vision and the Center’s potential impact. He and his family committed to realizing that potential. James Donius, Ph.D., a seasoned marketing industry executive and founder of an award-winning global marketing intelligence agency was hired to direct the new Center and shepherd its development and planning. The project picked up momentum last winter after the appointment of an Advisory Board composed of educators, market data experts, and media and communications professionals who offer deep and broad experience in academia, public service, and industry.
Now, in what seems like record time, the vision has become a reality. The new Fishlinger Center for Public Policy Research at the College of Mount Saint Vincent is up and running, and was formally dedicated on October 17—just one year after President Flynn’s announcement to the Board. The dedication ceremony took place in the Center’s newly created location on the third floor of Founders Hall during Reunion/Homecoming and Family Weekend.
MAXIMIZING RESOURCES The Center’s footprint consists of two former classrooms outfitted for academic research and market data analysis. The laboratory space comprises 25 computer work stations where students and faculty can collect and analyze data, using highly sophisticated software for data mining and predictive analytics. The software was provided by IBM through its Academic Initiative for Cloud, a new program that utilizes the latest educational materials and methodologies to introduce students to emerging cloud technologies.
The second classroom boasts a state-of-the-art focus group setup, fully equipped with audio and video recording, projection screen, and both wired and wireless Internet access. To ensure the two rooms remain multipurpose and cost-effective, the laboratory can be called into service as a computer lab, while the focus group area can be used to hold small conferences and meetings, or configured for market research, psychology experiments, and other academic uses, thus pairing state-of-the-art function with total utilization.
Concurrent with the opening of the new Center is the introduction of two new majors that will better prepare students for careers in public policy and the private sector. Launching next spring are Communication in a Digital World, a gateway course for the Market Data Analytics major, and Public Service as a Career, which goes toward the Public Policy major. According to President Flynn, “The Fishlinger Center for Public

Policy Research has allowed us to create an important interdisciplinary academic major in public policy. Much more than a major in political science, an interdisciplinary major in public policy can build on and deepen our strengths in economics, communication, public policy, mathematics, and philosophy.”
Already, students are stepping forward to declare their interest in the new majors, and are eagerly awaiting the start of those classes in January. Meanwhile, students have organized the Mount’s first Public Policy Club, which began meeting in the fall. Other student clubs in the planning stages include a Digital Focus Club, which will explore social media, data mining, and other topics pertaining to the Market Data Analytics major.
A LANDMARK APPROACH Perhaps most exciting is the announcement of the results of the first study conducted by the Center. Dr. Donius presented a report on the study at the Human Trafficking symposium on September 25, and delivered a special presentation to alumnae/i during Reunion/Homecoming and Family Weekend, on Saturday, October 17.
The Fishlinger Center’s Advisory Board, in collaboration with the faculty and administration, chose carefully when deciding on human migration as the subject of the first study. Designed to probe multiple social issues, the study preserves a special focus on human trafficking in the U.S. According to Dr. Donius, the quality and quantity of the data collected was so wide-ranging and complex that he expects multiple reports to emerge from the first survey, with subjects ranging from domestic violence and poverty to environmental issues and affordable education.
“Not only will we be able to learn more about how the public perceives human migration, but we will also gather more perspective on how people view social issues in general,” he says. “By looking at human migration in context, instead of in isolation, we will discover the extent to which social issues compete with one another. This is a landmark approach, one that we believe has never been done before.”
The seeds of the project first began to germinate when the Fishlinger family, led by William Fishlinger and his wife, Joan, made a decision to give $1 million to the College to underwrite startup costs for a center devoted
to public opinion and responsible debate. In conversations with President Flynn, Mr. Fishlinger conveyed his vision of a place where great minds, great intention, and great commitment could be brought together in a central hub. “I envisioned a research center where serious, important issues—what I call transcendent issues, the compelling problems of social justice that apply to people all over the world—could be addressed in a serious way by serious people,” said Mr. Fishlinger.
PROMOTING REAL CHANGE The Center’s main activity will be to conduct public policy research on carefully selected social justice issues for the purpose of creating meaningful dialog—and change. “The purpose was not merely to establish another polling organization,” Mr. Fishlinger said. “There are other agencies doing that, and doing it well. At the Fishlinger Center, the goal is to gather and present information about critical social issues to multiple constituencies. We are creating an instrument that can be placed in the hands of the academic community, and ultimately with legislators who can promote real change.”
And why here? Why did the Fishlinger family invest in the College of Mount Saint Vincent as the setting for an innovative center for public policy? “When I look at this institution’s history of addressing society’s most serious and pressing issues, it’s clear that the Mount has a moral, ethical backbone, and a deep commitment to positive social change,” says Mr. Fishlinger. “The missions of the Center and the College are wholly compatible.”
This multi-pronged benefit to the College is a driving factor for Mr. Fishlinger. “The Center not only adds value by allowing students to engage in a deeply important area of study,” he says. “As the Center’s reputation grows and more studies are released, it’s entirely feasible that we’ll begin hearing the Mount cited in the media, the way you now hear mentions of Marist or Quinnipiac. To have a Center that applies serious study to transcending issues, both here and globally, and that offers great value to the institution by enhancing both the student experience and the College’s visibility—that’s how our gift becomes enduring and more meaningful. It fulfills our family’s mission to make a positive impact in the world. We are happy to devote ourselves to the Mount, and we look forward to a long relationship.”

2015 SCHOLARSHIP DINNER CONTRIBUTORS
CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE ANNUAL SCHOLARSHIP TRIBUTE DINNER support the College Scholarship Fund, and allow us to provide the greatest educational opportunities to qualified students.
The College of Mount Saint Vincent hosted its annual Scholarship Tribute Dinner at Cipriani Wall Street on Wednesday, May 6, 2015 to support scholarships for talented and deserving students. The College honored William M. O’Connor, a partner in the New York office of Thompson & Knight LLP, where he serves as co-chair of the Real Estate Capital Markets Practice Group, and Sgt. Cheryl C. Shea, of the New York City Police Department’s Office of the Deputy Commissioner for Training.

Joan Backer Maddy ’50
Joan Backer first arrived at the gates of the College of Mount Saint Vincent as a bright-eyed, eager 16-year-old whose deep hunger for knowledge had bloomed during her rigorous education at a New York City high school. “I was fully open to the exquisite treasures of Chaucer, Dante, Donne, Thomas Aquinas, and Augustine, and I savored my classes,” she recalls. “However, my spiritual foundation had been minimal, even though I was brought up Catholic. So I was challenged when I first encountered the studies of philosophy, theology, and ontology, and was exposed to the abundance of mind- and spirit-provoking questions that my teachers presented. I found it all fascinating.”
Joan was a sophomore when she met and married Elmer Maddy, a Columbia University law student. Both continued their studies through graduation, and they settled in Greenwich, Conn., to start a family. Elmer, a Methodist, agreed to raise their only child, Patty, as a Catholic. When Patty received her First Holy Communion, Elmer surprised Joan by revealing that he had been studying his catechism, too—and was now ready to convert to Catholicism. “I was so surprised and pleased,” she says. “We took courses in systematic theology, studied the documents of Vatican II. He was wonderful.”
One day when Patty was in elementary school, Joan had reason to visit the Mount. In the office of the registrar, she was told that a nearby school was desperate to find
a math teacher. “I didn’t want to be a teacher, but the registrar insisted I’d be good at it, and handed me my transcript,” she recalls. At the Convent of the Sacred Heart Joan inquired about the teaching job. “The Sister who did the interview said to me, ‘St. Jude must have sent you!’ I started the following Monday, first teaching math, algebra, and geometry, and later calculus. The hours enabled me to be home when my daughter returned from school.”
Now a resident of Vero Beach, Florida, Joan teaches Bible studies to boys aged 13-19 at the St. Lucie Regional Juvenile Detention Center. She says, “I use my classical education. I read excerpts from poems like “Death Be Not Proud,” and they really respond. The Mount expanded my mind by teaching me the classics, like reading Chaucer in the old English. It made me love literature.”
She continues, “I love the enthusiasm, spontaneity, and resourcefulness that burst forth from the atmosphere of youth. The virtue I would like to see more abundantly [in young people] is courage. In today’s environment we often walk the journey alone, so it is in this capacity that we truly make a difference. I feel that we should be the person God intended us to be. He sometimes expects very little, but everyone has to give that. I tell my students, ‘You are born with a job description that the Lord has given you. As you try to become that, you will come into your own.’”
Joan often thinks about her education, and how it kindled
her own intellectual curiosity and spirituality. “When people ask, ‘What is the value of a college education,’ many answers are given. To me the most important is, does my education contribute to my journey to the One? In my case, the Lord opened a vista that supersedes all academic and material achievement and human endeavor. Only after many years can I appreciate the door that was opened for me at Mount Saint Vincent. College should give you something that never leaves you. It should instill how beautiful learning is and the mind is. [Young people] all know the computer, but I think, what’s happening to your brain?”
And what of the other “door” that was opened by her education? “The Roman Catholic faith is a magnificent gift. [My advice to students is] to learn it, study it, make it the marrow of your heart and soul—then go out and live it. As Robert Frost wrote, if we all take ‘the road less traveled by,’ it will make all the difference.”

WE GRATEFULLY ACKNOWLEDGE those individuals whose final intentions were fulfilled in 2014-2015 through contributions from their estates.
college of mount saint vincent 39
NEW In July 2014, the College received a five-year award to operate a New York State Higher Education Oppor-tunity Program (HEOP). HEOP reflects the College’s longstanding commitment to serving determined stu-dents, regardless of their financial means. The program is designed for students who have the potential and drive to further their education, but due to limited academic and financial resources, would not otherwise have the op-portunity to attend college. The goal of HEOP is to retain and graduate promising students who will succeed at the college level and beyond. The grant will provide more than $3 million in support during the five-year period.
In October 2014, the College of Mount Saint Vincent was awarded a Developing Hispanic Serving Institutions grant totaling up to $2.3 million from the U.S. Department of Education. The grant assists institutions serving a high pro-portion of Hispanic students with developing and increas-ing their academic offerings. The funding will be distributed over a five-year grant period, with the first year totaling $458,473, and be utilized to bolster the College’s student support services—including the Academic Resource Center and the Mount Access Program—and to further the implementation of the Oxley Career Education Program.
CONTINUING SUPPORT The College received $278,539 from the U.S. Department of Education to support the SSS TRIO Program, the final disbursement of a five year award. Since 1997, TRIO funding has allowed the College to provide counseling, academic support, career and financial guidance and mentoring to 160 eligible students each year. In July 2015, the College won a new five-year grant to continue operating the TRIO program through 2020.
In September 2014, James Fabrizio, Ph.D., Professor of Biology, began work on a three-year research project fund-ed by a National Institutes of Health Academic Research Enhancement Award (AREA). The three year grant, totaling $195,000, will enable Dr. Fabrizio to further his studies
of late-stage maturation of spermatozoa in fruit flies. The grant will allow Dr. Fabrizio to engage students as research assistants and collaborators.
2014-2015 was the second year of a National Institutes of Health Biomedical Research and Research Training grant, in collaboration with Brown University. An award of $22,000 was made in 2014-2015 to support a project led by Janet Rollins, Ph.D, Associate Professor of Chemistry, to engage and mentor undergraduate students in scientif-ic research. Dr. Rollins’ team will conduct studies explor-ing the impact of anticancer drugs on fertility.
The College continues to recruit and train secondary math-ematics and science teachers with the support of a five-year Robert Noyce Teacher Scholarship program grant from the National Science Foundation. In 2014-2015 the program began its second year, under the direction of Mary Ellen Sullivan, Ph.D., Chair of the Department of Teacher Educa-tion. The grant, which will provide $868,618 over five years provides participating students scholarship support during the final two years of the baccalaureate program.
In Fall 2014, the second cohort of Scholars on Track students began their studies at the College. The program is funded through a five-year, $599,956 grant from the National Science Foundation’s Scholarships in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (S-STEM) program. In 2014-2015 18 students received scholarship assistance and participated in enrichment activities led by Principal Investigator, Patricia Grove, Ph.D. and co-Princi-pal Investigator, Pamela Kerrigan, Ph.D.
The Elizabeth Seton Library was awarded $5,302 from the New York State Department of Education’s Coordi-nated Collection Development Aid Program to support academic collection acquisition.
GRANTS and CONTRACTS
THE JAMES G. HOULIHAN FAMILY PARTNERSHIP awarded $50,000 to strengthen the Joseph and Rose Murray Scholarship endowment.
THE LOUIS AND RACHEL RUDIN FOUNDATION continued its generous support of the College with an award of $30,000 for nursing student scholarships.
THE ARTHUR WILLIAMS RESIDUARY TRUST awarded the College $16,000 in scholarship funding for nursing students.
THE RASKOB FOUNDATION FOR CATHOLIC ACTIVITIES furthered its decade’s long philanthropy with an award of $15,000, made in memory of Yvonne Raskob. The grant supported scholarships for nursing students.

GENERATIONS OF DONORS CONTRIBUTE ANNUALLY to keep the College of Mount Saint Vincent strong, and their dedicated support allows the Mount to continue its mission for tomorrow’s students as well. There are many opportunities for giving to the College, and gifts can take several forms. Most contributions also provide the donor with an income tax deduction for the year of the gift. Please carefully consider the many options available for your future giving.
For more information about giving to the College of Mount Saint Vincent, contact Daniel Regan, Director for Development/Corporate, Foundation, and Government Relations, at (718) 405-3342 or [email protected].
ANNUAL FUND An Annual Fund gift is an oppor-tunity to provide an unrestricted contribution to the College of Mount Saint Vincent. The An-nual Fund supports all areas of the College including financial aid, faculty development, build-ings and grounds maintenance, student activities, and upgraded technology programs.
CAPITAL GIFTS Capital gifts are designated by the donor to fund the College’s capital needs, such as construction and renovation projects.
SCHOLARSHIPS Scholarships give talented and deserving students the op-portunity to afford a Mount Saint Vincent education. Gifts can be made to a general scholarship fund or to the Scholarship Tribute Dinner to benefit all Mount Saint Vincent scholarships. An endowed scholarship can be named and will support future generations of students.
OPPORTUNITIES for GIVING
CASH Gifts of cash immediately benefit the College. The Col-lege gratefully accepts checks and cash, as well as contribu-tions made through a donor’s Mastercard, Visa, Discover, or American Express credit or debit card.
SECURITIES Like cash contributions, a gift of securities entitles the donor to an income tax deduction in the year it is given. The most convenient way to give a gift of securities is to arrange a transfer by a broker to the College’s account.
CORPORATE MATCHING GIFTS Many businesses have match-ing gift programs, which can double or even triple a gift to the College. They are easy to arrange and are of no cost to the donor. Please contact your employer’s human resources office for more information about matching gifts.
PLANNED GIFTS Planned gifts are popular and creative ways to support the Mount and receive significant financial benefits during your lifetime.
BEQUESTS You may include Mount Saint Vincent in your will by desig-nating a specific dollar amount or a percentage of your estate to the College.
