Donors Give Students Emory Advantage

InvestIng well durIng A tough economy

At Emory University the impact of the worldwide financial turmoil is becoming evident, as it is throughout higher education. One thing now abundantly clear is that Emory must not merely prepare to “weather the storm,” as some have put it. What the world is experiencing appears to be not so much a passing storm as an economic climate change. Serious structural issues confront all of us, a seismic shift in the entire economy affecting our accustomed ways of living and doing business.

The difficulties of our time may be complex, but they offer us clear choices in how we respond to them. Emory’s response to these economic challenges must be active rather than passive. Our top priorities remain the same: to recruit and retain the best students, faculty, and staff; and to pursue the strategic plan toward our vision at the most expeditious pace permitted by our resource environment.

Part of our active response is the rededication of our energy and commitment to the fund-raising campaign we launched quietly in 2005 and publicly last September. Now, more than ever, we believe that the long-term health of our society depends on the foundational work made possible by education, including higher education.

As each of us weighs and balances our charitable priorities during this time of fiscal constraint, we at Emory trust that the purposes of this great university will stand out as critically important and among your principal philanthropies.

Facing the challenges before us will, I believe, draw out our best. It will require us to ask what is most essential, what is most excellent, and therefore what is most worthy of focus and advancement through gifts to Campaign Emory. Along the way, all of us can hope for an extra measure of wisdom and courage of the sort that Emory has drawn upon in the past and will continue to rely on in the future.

Thank you for your support and your trust. Our commitment to excellence continues to guide our stewardship of the funds entrusted to us.

Jim WagnerPresident, Emory University

Gates Foundation Gift Fights Tobacco Use in China

Emory has received a $14 million, five-year grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to help reduce the burden

of tobacco use in China. Emory’s Global Health Institute (GHI), in collaboration with the Tobacco Technical Assistance

Consortium of Emory’s Rollins School of Public Health, will establish the Emory GHI-China Tobacco Partnership. The

GHI will manage the partnership, which will collaborate with public health leaders in China to promote evidence-based

approaches to reducing tobacco use that are tailored to the culture and circumstances of individual cities and provinces.

The GHI also will help establish national tobacco control resource centers in China. GHI Director Jeffrey Koplan will

serve as principal investigator of the grant.

Coke Aids Emory AdvantageThe Coca-Cola Foundation has pledged $3 million to Emory over the

next five years for student aid and support for sustainability projects

in Atlanta neighborhoods. Two-thirds of the grant will support the

Emory Advantage financial aid program for undergraduates in

Emory’s Goizueta Business School and Nell Hodgson Woodruff

School of Nursing. The remaining third will fund student and

faculty efforts to protect metro Atlanta’s natural resources through

the Sustainable Partnerships for Atlanta Neighborhoods (SPAN)

project. SPAN is a new initiative of Emory’s Office of University-

Community Partnerships.

Lilly Fuels Candler Program

Emory’s Candler School of Theology has received a $4.55 million

grant from Lilly Endowment Inc. to continue building the doctoral

program in religious practices and practical theology. The award

follows a $10 million Lilly grant to Candler that founded the

program, which is changing and strengthening the training of a new

generation of ministers and religious leaders. “In six years Emory

has helped reshape the landscape of graduate education in religion

and theology,” says Emory Provost Earl Lewis. “We are the leading

university-based practical theology program in the country.”

F O r m O r E O N T H E S E S TO r I E S , v I S I T W W W. C A m PA I g N . E m O r y. E d U / N E W S

“Funds to attend Emory during difficult times are critical to our mission. ... If ever there was a time to help, this is it.”Emory Provost Earl Lewis

“There was almost no chance I would be able to go to such a great institution like Emory College without huge amounts of debt.”Andrew Hull 12C, Bonaire, Georgia

Wood is now a junior at Emory College of Arts and Sciences studying environmental

science. The oldest of four girls, she knew it would be tough to afford college—her

mom is a carriage driver and her dad, who has a disability, has worked in the

restaurant industry.

“I grew up on stories of Oxford, and I knew it was a special place. I was able to

go there because of Emory Advantage. I can take a full class load without working

full time as well, and I don’t have to worry about graduating with huge debt.

There is no way I could have gone there otherwise,” says Wood, who is from

Houston, Texas.

Emory Advantage, which benefits low- and middle-income students, was

established in 2007 and offers two kinds of aid. The Loan Replacement Grant

eliminates need-based loans for dependent undergraduate students whose families’

annual incomes are $50,000 or less. The Loan Cap Program restricts cumulative

need-based debt to $15,000 for dependent undergraduates whose families earn

between $50,000 and $100,000.

Undergraduates at Oxford College, Emory College, Goizueta Business School, and

the Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing are eligible for Emory Advantage,

and more than 630 students have benefitted since the program’s inception. Donors

have given more than $11 million toward the University’s goal of building a

permanent endowment for Emory Advantage.

In today’s economy, financial aid and scholarships are the best chance for many

promising students to attend a university like Emory without the burden of debt.

“Funds to attend Emory during difficult financial times are critical to our mission

of educating our best and brightest regardless of the student’s ability to pay,” says

Emory Provost Earl Lewis. “If ever there was a time to help, this is it.”

Emory Advantage is just one of many options for donors who want to provide

critical resources for current and prospective students. At Emory College, the

School of Nursing, Goizueta, and Oxford College, opportunities exist to fund

fellowships, Adopt-a-Scholar programs, endowed scholarships, and other

scholarship programs in addition to Emory Advantage. Every school at Emory

offers opportunities to support scholarships.

In Emory School of Medicine, for example, annual gifts to the dean’s fund and

the resident education fund provide scholarship support, along with gifts to

scholarship endowments and the Adopt-a-Doc term program. As the cost of a

medical education continues to increase nationwide, scholarships enable students

to concentrate on their studies without accumulating an overwhelming debt

load, which often surpasses $150,000.

The Theology School Fund for Excellence and the new Candler Advantage

program are building on Candler School of Theology’s long-standing commitment

to reducing educational debt, a heavy burden too many graduates take with them

into the ministry. In addition to enhancing need-based scholarships, gifts provide

stipends for students to work in churches and community ministries.

The Rollins School of Public Health offers investment opportunities through

term scholarships, annual gifts, the Adopt-a-Scholar program, and endowments

for full tuition, doctoral stipends, the Global Field Experience program, and

scholarship funds. Endowments create ongoing financial resources for students.

At Emory Law, gifts endow scholarships, strengthen existing scholarship funds,

and support the loan repayment assistance program, which enables students to

pursue career opportunities in the public interest and public sector by offsetting

their education debt.

Gifts help Emory Graduate School endow graduate and honors graduate

fellowships. In the Office of Campus Life, support provides scholarships for

leadership development open to students in any of the University’s schools and

units. Yerkes National Primate Research Center offers investment opportunities

in its Adopt-a-Student/Researcher program, which helps students work with

Yerkes researchers to pursue scientific studies that are the underpinning of future

medical breakthroughs.

Scholarship and fellowship funding opportunities can be found in all corners

of Emory University’s campus, and each of these areas has identified student

support as a high priority within Campaign Emory.

www.campaign.emory.edu/contact.

Without the Emory Advantage financial aid program, Willow Wood 08OX 10C may not have

been able to attend college at all, much less realize her dream of studying at Oxford College of

Emory University. She learned about Oxford from her aunt and uncle, who were students there.

Gifts Support Neurology, Pediatrics, Cancer Care

SIGNIFICANT SUPPORT OF THE HEALTH SCIENCES AT EMORY IS ENSURING PROGRESS OF MEDICAL RESEARCH,

education of physicians and nurses, strides in public health worldwide, and continuation of excellent patient care. The goal for

Emory’s health sciences is $1.07 billion. Between September 1, 2005, when the advance phase of Campaign Emory began, and

April 1, 2009, donors had provided $706 million of that amount.

Mary Louise “Lou” Brown Jewell has pledged to establish the A. Worley Brown Chair in Neurology to honor her late husband.

Former CEO of Rock-Tenn Corporation, Worley Brown was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 1988 and passed away in

1997. Her lead gift to Emory School of Medicine supports an endowment program for research, service, and education focusing

on Parkinson’s and other movement disorders. Garet Joseph Pilling has pledged to establish the Dr. G. Keith Pilling Scholars

Endowment in the School of Medicine. The merit- and need-based scholarship is named for his son, Keith Pilling 88C 92M, who

passed away in 2001.

Frank Critz and Ann Critz 81MR have pledged to create the Alfred W. Brann Jr. Chair in Pediatrics for Reproductive Health and

Perinatal Care. Brann, professor of pediatrics and a pioneer in preconception care, mentored Ann Critz during her neonatology

fellowship in the early 1980s. She is now an associate professor of pediatrics at Emory School of Medicine. Support from Willard

Society Atlanta Hope Lodge at Emory, which houses cancer patients and their caregivers free of charge. Named for Hackerman’s

parents and those of his wife, the Hackerman-Patz Wing will open this summer.

The new Psychology Building will open with a ceremony and celebration during Homecoming Weekend, September 24-26. The building will provide a state-of-the-art home for the Psychology Department and house the Child Studies Center, the Psychological Center, and the Brain Imaging Center. A number of naming opportunities remain available.

Oxford College’s new residence hall, a two-building complex housing approximately 350 students, is one of the first steps in improving the school’s facilities—a principal goal of Oxford’s strategic plan.

Construction of the new Claudia Nance Rollins Building for Emory’s Rollins School of Public Health is under way. Made possible by a major gift from the O. Wayne Rollins Foundation, the new building will create much-needed space for teaching and research.

Charitable IRA Rollovers: A Tax-Wise Plan for Giving to Emory

Donors Invest in Students, Faculty, and Facilities

Former faculty member Carter Smith Jr. 56C 60M values Emory

School of Medicine’s excellence in teaching so much that he and his

wife, Laura, helped fund the school’s new education building with

several charitable IRA rollover gifts. Charitable IRA rollover gifts

allow otherwise taxable distributions of up to $100,000 per person

from traditional or Roth IRAs to be excluded from gross income.

Smith sees this giving strategy as a practical way to support Emory,

whether donors contribute to a building, student scholarships,

professorships, or other programs. “The charitable IRA rollover

appealed to me because the money goes directly from your IRA to

Emory, and you’re not taxed on it,” he says. “It’s a great way to

show your devotion to the school.”

For details, visit www.campaign.emory/edu/ways-to-give and click

on “Gift Planning” or call 404.727.8875.

Emory friends and alumni have generated $212 million in support

for University programs as of April 1, 2009. These gifts will help

fuel successful programs, make an Emory education affordable

to all qualified students, attract and retain the best faculty, and

fund construction and renovation projects on campus. The goal

for University programs is $530 million.

Among the gifts, Coca-Cola Bottling and Coca-Cola Enterprises

are supporting student-focused programs in Emory’s Department

of Athletics and Recreation. For Emory College of Arts and

Sciences, the Jim Cox Jr. Foundation has endowed a chair in

Roman history to honor the late philanthropist Betty Gage

Holland. Boston alumni Adam 92C 96M and Stephanie Fireman

Rogers 92C have created endowed scholarships at Emory

College and Emory School of Medicine and are helping fund the

new Psychology Building on campus.

An anonymous graduate of Goizueta Business School’s executive

MBA program is supporting faculty with a gift to the dean’s

discretionary fund. Oxford College alumnus Lloyd Whitaker

52OX 54C 61L and his wife, Mary Ann Baker Whitaker, have

made a bequest to fund scholarships for Oxford students.

For Emory Law, graduate Brent Savage 78L has endowed the

Linda L. Savage and Mary Lee Lebey Scholarship Fund to honor

his wife and her mother. The scholarship endowment will support

dual-degree students in the Center for the Study of Law and

Religion. A gift from the estate of Helen C. Jenkins is supporting

the World Methodist Evangelism Institute in Emory’s Candler

School of Theology.

emory hAs A PlAn

during a recent interview, a student reporter for The Emory Wheel asked me when Campaign Emory began. When I said we started on Sept. 1, 2005, my answer was met with a surprised, “Oh!”

Because the public phase of the campaign began only seven months ago, some see it as a new effort, but in fact we have been building momentum for more than three years. We continue to see significant progress, and we have surpassed the halfway mark to our $1.6 billion goal.

By its nature a campaign is long-term, typically lasting seven or more years, which helps mitigate the effects of economic downturns. In the best of times there are fluctuations in the amount of money raised from month to month. This is even more the case in an uncertain economy.

Just as the University has a strategy for navigating this new economic reality, we have a plan for managing the campaign through these times. There will be an impact, but we will continue to assess leading indicators and make appropriate adjustments.

Philanthropy is about positive change. We are still supporting the things outlined in our strategic plan that will lead to positive transformation at Emory and in the world. depending on the economy, we may not be able to implement our strategic plan as expeditiously as we intended, but we will not stop. It may just take a little longer.

This being said, Emory continues to receive generous support from donors who understand that our valuable work must continue. Hundreds of Emory supporters have attended recent campaign-related gatherings in Washington, d.C., and New york City to show their dedication and to hear about the outstanding work by faculty and students that is being made possible by their support.

We are grateful to our loyal donors and their faith in our mission. We also appreciate the many gifts from people who are new to our institution, and we will do our best to prove to all of them that we are an institution that stewards its gifts well.

Morgan Combines Love of Books, Emory as Libraries Campaign ChairBanker, businessman, bibliophile. Financial acumen and his love of literature make

John Morgan 67OX 69B, who chairs the Emory Board of Trustees’ finance committee,

the perfect campaign chairman for Emory Libraries.

“Our special collections bring an energy to Emory that nothing else can,” Morgan says.

“Having these collections is really important in terms of becoming one of a handful of

outstanding libraries in the country.”

Recalling the shelves of well-worn books he read again and again as a teenager,

Morgan loves classics of Southern and American literature, including the works of

Flannery O’Connor, Carson McCullers, and Alice Walker. As a student at Oxford

College and then Emory College, Morgan focused on business, graduating with an

accounting degree. He was a banker before he and eight partners founded INVESCO

Capital Management in 1979.

When asked to chair Emory Libraries’ campaign for the Manuscript, Archives, and

Rare Book Library (MARBL), Morgan saw an opportunity to champion a purpose

close to his heart—helping continue MARBL’s journey to the literary forefront as a

center for international scholarship. Morgan sees donor support for MARBL as an

investment in Emory’s reputation and stature around the world.

In his role as MARBL campaign chairman, Morgan is helping raise $27 million

in funding to build a new facility, strengthen the library’s collections, increase its

endowment, add new tools to its arsenal of digital technologies, and support its annual

fund. Through the rare and unique materials in its special collections, he says, MARBL

invites the greater community into the heart of Emory, sharing with the world its

cultural and historical treasures.

John Morgan, who loves to read and has a particular fondness for Southern classics, is leading the campaign for Emory Libraries.

The Campaign Chronicle is moving to Emory Magazine! In

partnership with the Emory Alumni Association, the Chronicle

will become a regular feature of Emory’s award-winning alumni

magazine beginning with the fall 2009 issue. Everyone who has

been receiving the campaign newsletter will continue to receive

it as a permanent section of the quarterly magazine for the

duration of the campaign. The move is designed to make better

use of Emory’s resources and share with all constituents Emory

Magazine’s thoughtful take on the University’s people, places,

and programs, as well as Campaign Emory’s impact.
