The Fort Wayne Children’s Zoo is ranked as one of the top 10 in the country by Child Magazine, and both children

and adults marvel at the wonders to see and experience at Science Central.

Fort Wayne was been named America’s No. 1 minor league sports city, in the 2007 Street & Smith’s Sports Business Journal, and is home to the league-

winning Fort Wayne TinCaps (single A affiliate of the San Diego Padres), Fort Wayne Komets hockey team, and the Fort Wayne Mad Ants of the NBA-D

League.

Some of Fort Wayne’s best attractions are in its wide array of places in which to eat—from single counter diners to elegant restaurants. And if retail therapy is for you, Fort Wayne boasts the largest shopping mall in

the state, Glenbrook Square Mall.

Fort Wayne is Indiana’s second largest city, boasting a population of more than 250,000 people. Nicknamed The Summit City because it’s one of the highest spots in the region, Fort Wayne is a family-friendly city that offers something for everyone.

Visitors can trace their ancestors in the largest public genealogy department in the country at the Fort Wayne-Allen County Public Library.

The city is the birthplace of inventions such as the washing machine, baking powder, calculator, juke box, televi-sion, breathalyzer, and refrigerator. It is also the city where stereo sound, the garbage disposal, magnetic wire, streetlights, and the gasoline pump were first created and manufactured.

Fort Wayne is also the site of the first night baseball game played under the lights, the birthplace of the NBA Detroit Pistons, and the home of the Fort Wayne Daisies - the professional women’s baseball team featured in the movie, “A League of Their Own.”

Fort Wayne was been named America’s No. 1 minor league sports city, in the 2007 Street & Smith’s Sports Business Journal, and is home to the league-

winning Fort Wayne TinCaps (single A affiliate of the San Diego Padres), Fort Wayne Komets hockey team, and the Fort Wayne Mad Ants of the NBA-D

League.

The arts are alive and well with the Fort Wayne Philharmonic, Fort Wayne Ballet, Fort Wayne Museum

of Art, Fort Wayne Performing Arts Center, touring shows at the historic Embassy Theatre, and much

more.

The Gates Sports Center has been home to Mastodon basketball and volleyball since its opening in the 1980’s. Renovated in the summer of 2011, the Gates Center now features lower-bowel seats with backs and arm rests, and a new molded-seat upper section. The gym also had additions to the heating and cooling systems to help temperature-control the facility year round, and will feature a state-of-the-art sound system.

A part of the greater student-services building renovations, the overall renovation includes a 90,000 square foot athletics center with an indoor track that features the Mondo Super X Surface, the same surface as used in the beijing olympics.

The facility will also include offices for the ipfw coaching staff, updated exercise equipment, free weight and nautilus machines, cardio equipment and fitness assistants.

It all started about 10,000 years ago…That’s when mastodons roamed the southern Great Lakes region of North America. These stocky versions of mod-ern elephants reached heights of about ten feet at the shoulder, with tusks that curved upward that were six feet or more in length. Mastodons were browsers who fed mostly on leaves and twigs from small trees and shrubs. One such mastodon found its final rest-ing place about two miles south of Angola, Indiana, on land that would eventually be-come part of Orsie Routsong’s farm. In the fall of 1968, Routsong decided to expand a small pond on his property. An excavator was hired and instructed to pile the ex-cavated material around the edge of the pond. Several days after the excavation was finished a heavy rain storm pounded the piles of dirt. The next day, a young neighbor boy of Routsong’s discovered a large bone in one of the dirt piles. Rout-song knew it was something out of the ordinary, so he called Jack Sunderman, chair of the IPFW Geology Department, to identify the bone, and to ask for advice on what to do with it. Sunderman says his first question was, “How big is the bone,” with Routsong’s answer being “pretty big, maybe 3 or 4 feet long.” When Sunderman got to the farm, he identified the bone as a leg bone of a mastodon. He told Routsong a skeleton like this would have scientific and instruc-tional value if a large portion of it could be located. Routsong agreed, and also agreed to have the IPFW Geology Depart-ment do the excavation. Sunderman got two more faculty members, Geoffrey Mat-thews and Bernd Erdtmann, and several geology students to help in the project. Using metal rods to probe through the sticky clay around the pond, the team lo-cated quite a number of rib bones, ver-tebrae, and leg bones; but the skull and tusks were missing. After they finished going through the clay piles around the

pond, the team decided to venture further out, into undisturbed ground, eventually striking a large, solid object. Sunderman says they were all amazed when they dis-covered the skull of the mastodon, includ-ing the cranium, the upper jaw, and both tusks. He recalled, The skull had been buried about four feet beneath the surface, and was upside down. The two tusks, about five feet long, were still in place—projecting from the skull! The team completed its excavation, still missing several leg and toe bones. At this point, they got help from an un-expected source: the Student Government Association. That group provided funds for an additional machine excavation that would double the size of the pond. Rout-song agreed with the proposition and the machine excavation continued for a few more weeks. However, only a few small scraps of bones were found. After the original contracted time for the machine excavation ended, the opera-tor independently decided to “go fishing” for bones for a few more hours. Sunder-man picks up the story, Imagine our excitement when we, the Geology Department team, learned the excavator had uncovered a second mast-odon! With one of his last scoops, the ex-cavator had pulled up the skull of a baby mastodon!Unfortunately, Sunderman says that skull was not well preserved and had parts missing due to decay. After all the mastodon bones were col-lected, cleaned, and preserved, Routsong agreed to have the adult mastodon skel-eton placed on permanent display at IPFW (pictured below); the skull of the baby mastodon is now on loan to Science Cen-tral. So that’s how the mastodon bones came to be encased in Kettler Hall; but how did the mastodon become IPFW’s mascot?

In the spring of 1970, The Communica-tor began a drive to come up with a mascot for IPFW. Some of the suggested choices included the Boiler-Hoosiers, Warhawks, Marauders, Frontiersmen, Pioneers, Elfs, and Hobbits. Those names and others came from student suggestions. The orig-inal plan was that students would vote on ballots published in The Communicator. At the same time the newspaper was run-ning sample ballots, Steve Pettyjohn, who served as the student body president in 1968-69, wrote a letter to the editor about the school mascot. In his letter, Pettyjohn extolled the virtues of choosing the mast-odon as IPFW’s mascot: “It sounds different, strange, and even icky (as one female student put it). That’s exactly why. It’s different and yes, even strange. I’m tired of slavishly copy-ing what Bloomington, West Lafayette, and other big schools do. And I’m tired of these high school attitudes and high school nicknames…For God’s Sakes, let’s have the courage to be a little different.” In the meantime, former Indiana Con-gressman Mark Souder, who served as student body president in 1969-70, re-calls being lobbied by the Geology Club to choose the mastodon: “…a group from the Geology Club burst into the Student Government office, led by Dr. Erdtmann and Dr. Sunderman. I know Mike Nusbaumer was involved both

as a student government leader and a ge-ology club member.” According to Nusbaumer,“Souder appointed a committee in stu-dent government to select a name (I was a member of that committee) although he was lobbying hard for the mastodon.” Souder says he’s not sure who else was on the committee, but he does recall that the majority of the committee mem-bers favored the mastodon. After some discussion on the subject, Souder says a vote was taken by the committee and the mastodon came out the winner. Souder finished his recollection with these thoughts. “History shows that the advocacy of the geology club was correct. The fast, decisive action of the elected student government—though it did not please ev-eryone and was not a precedent that the University desired to see—has also been upheld by history as IPFW regularly scores high in any list of unique university nick-names; even in this era when everybody strives to be different. We did it decades ago.”

Indiana native Vicky Carwein is in the first year of her tenure as the University’s ninth chancellor.

Carwein was born and raised in Gwynneville in Shelby County, and said coming to IPFW is, in a sense, returning to her roots. “This is just an incredible opportunity. I was so impressed with the passion and dedication of the search committee. They were very inspiring in passing along the commitment of the campus and the community in building on the successes that IPFW has experienced in its past, and I am very excited to be a part of its future.” Carol Sternberger, associate vice chancellor for academic programs and co-chair of the Chancellor Search Committee, said, “I speak for the committee in saying that we’re very happy and thrilled to welcome Chancellor Carwein and look forward to the next chapter in IPFW’s continued growth and success in serving the higher education needs of Fort Wayne and northeast Indiana.”

Most recently, Carwein served as the chancellor of Washington State University Tri-Cities in Richland, Wash. Prior to that, she served as president of Westfield State College in Westfield, Mass., and chancellor of the University of Washington Tacoma.

Under her leadership at all three institutions, research opportunities for students and faculty continued to grow, as did scholarships, external collaborations and support, and programs for freshmen.

At Westfield State College in Massachusetts, Carwein led the development of collaborations resulting in federal appropriations and the creation of an environmental center.

As chancellor of UW Tacoma, Carwein helped change the economic landscape of that region, cultivating public–private partnerships that supported scholarships, accessibility and diversity, economic vitality and sustainability, as well as the arts.

Carwein began her distinguished academic career at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas as an instructor, leaving 23 years later as dean of the College of Health Sciences.

She received a bachelor’s and D.N.S./Ph.D. in nursing from Indiana University. Her master’s degree in nursing is from the University of California, San Francisco.

Carwein’s husband, Bill Andrews, works for Battelle Memorial Institute, headquartered in Columbus, Ohio. Their two daughters and three grandchildren live in North Carolina.

Entering his sixth year as the Director of Athletics at IPFW, Tommy Bell has left a lasting impression in his short tenure at the helm of the department.

Under Bell’s guidance, the Arnie Ball Legacy Fund Campaign was established and completed. The campaign now fully funds all scholarships for men’s volleyball. Bell also established the Mastodon Athletic Scholarship Fund (MASF) which raises money for scholarship dollars for IPFW’s student-athletes. Also under the tutelage of Bell, the school established the Mastodon Wheel Club

Bell is in his second of a four-year term on the NCAA’s Amateurism Committee, and is in his second year of serving as Chairman of the Summit League Baseball Committee, after serving four seasons as the Chairman of The Summit League Tennis Committee.

One of the first projects Bell tackled upon his arrival was increasing the department’s marketing and profitability by entering into a marketing rights agreement with Nelligan Sports Marketing. He also teamed with the National Association of College Directors of Athletics (NACDA) to perform a consulting benchmark study to streamline and improve departmental operations.

Over the past two years, Bell has led facility upgrades that included a new multi-million dollar indoor student-services facility, improvements at Hefner Fields, the IPFW softball field and a total locker room renovation for IPFW’s basketball and volleyball programs.

Under Bell’s watch, IPFW student-athletes continue to excel in the classroom. Mastodon student-athletes just completed their 18th consecutive semester with a departmental grade point average (GPA) of 3.0 or better, and hundreds of Mastodon athletes have been named to Summit League All-Academic teams.

Before coming to IPFW, Bell was the Director of Development for Southern Illinois’ Department of Athletics from October 2001 to June 2007. As the Director of Athletic Development, Bell oversaw a staff of two that managed all fundraising efforts within the department. He established the Saluki Athletic Scholarship Fund in the Fall of 2002 and increased that fund by over 500%.

Bell also led the SIU Athletic Department’s comprehensive capital campaign efforts for The Opportunity Through Excellence: The Campaign For Southern. This project facilitated the first phases of the proposed “Saluki Way” master facility plan.

Bell received his undergraduate degree from Virginia Tech in 1979 and his Master of Science in Education from Radford University in 1987.

Tommy and his wife Laurie have two children; Joey and Courtney, both SIU grads, and one granddaughter.

On November 19, 2006, the inaugural class of honorees was inducted into the IPFW Athletics Hall of Fame (pictured below). The Hall of Fame was been established to celebrate the accomplishments of IPFW student-athletes, coaches, teams and supporters who have enhanced and reinforced the college’s commitment to excellence, and five years later now contains 47 members, including four honored this past December, pictured below from left to right: Ashley (Ritchey) Ade, Kristin Macdonald Simpson, Fabiana Shields, and Ryan Steinbach.
