Office of Institutional Advancement
Narrative Report
October — December, 2006
Submitted by: Tom Wamsley, VP of Institutional Advancement
Activities in the Office of Institutional – Advancement during the months of October
through December, 2006 focused on filling open IA staff positions, completing the
conversion of our alumni/donor database, conducting individual donor visits and
increasing alumni engagement. Specific initiatives included:
Raiser’s Edge went live on 10/2/2006. Since that time, we have updated
approximately over 10,000 alumni/donor records via Alumni Finder and continue
the process of correctly re-entering hundreds of multi-year pledges for purposes
of accurate cash flow reporting.
The final vacant IA staff position, Gift Recorder, was filled by Karen Beyer on
11/13/06. This is first time the IA department as been fully staffed in over two
years.
New Alumni Chapter meetings were held in Yellow Springs, Chicago, Santa Fe,
Washington, DC attracting 173 alumni attendees. The Alumni Relations staff
assisted the Boston Chapter with creating a Peace Panel discussion in October
which attracted 46 alumni. A guest speaker was featured at each of the events.
Speakers included: Steve Lawry, Tom Haugsby and Dan Gediman.
Chapter events have been scheduled for Seattle (Jan. 28″) and New York City
(Mar. 21″). Our plan to establish eight new chapters is on track and will be
completed by the end of the fiscal year as seven chapters have been launched or
have launch schedules. The last chapter site is Los Angeles and we are in the
process of identifying leadership.
The Alumni Board Meeting was held on October 19-21″ which was attended by
22 of the 28 board members. Highlights of the weekend were: (1) The
presentation of the Rebecca Rice Award to Cliff Robertson. The award ceremony
was opened up to the community and there were 54 people in attendance. (2) A
strategic planning session, during which the following goals were established:
Increase the number of chapters;
Recruit and train class representatives;
Create communication tools between the board and alumni;
Plan and assist with an annual reunion

Reunion Weekend has been scheduled for June 21 — 24, 2007. Save the Date
postcards were mailed the second week of December.
Over 40 cultivation and solicitation donor contacts were made by the IA VP and
President Lawry. There are over $700k in asks currently being considered. Over
$300k in planned/estate gifts in the process of being closed. The Director of
Alumni Relations submitted and was awarded a $160k matching grant request to
the Morgan Family Foundation for Glen Helen. A $25k gift was secured as a
result of our IRA distribution letter from Art Zucker.
Major Gift officers conducted over 60 personal visits and significant donor
contacts.
The alumni directory process was conducted, and the printed version will be
distributed in March, 2007. Approximately 5,000 alumni participated in the
process and will be included in the directory.
