MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR
It’s no secret that higher edu-cation in Western New York and across the nation is in transi-tion. Demographics are shifting, curriculums are evolving and the ways education itself is delivered are increasing. At the same time, local economies have yet to fully recover from the 2008 recession.
As my two-year term as board chairman draws to a close, I am pleased to report that the Fredonia College Foundation is meeting these challeng-es head-on, working collaboratively with the university and its top-level administrators, while capitalizing on Fredonia’s strengths and assets.
Our outstanding Science Center, which has already boosted enrollment in the STEM disciplines and generated significant donations from alumni and friends to support science education through naming opportunities, is a fine example of university-foundation collaboration. This same type of campaign is already in place for the Rockefeller Arts Center (RAC) expansion/renovation that will enhance the performing arts.
Like the Science Center, the RAC project will serve as another opportunity for the university — which already has an excellent reputation for its teacher preparation and music programs — to further distinguish itself in an already competi-tive market.
We continue to recognize the importance of the division of Engagement and Economic Development, headed by Dr. Kevin Kearns, and support its mission to facilitate university-community collaborations to achieve cultural, intellectual and economic growth in the region. Additionally, the board is working with all university vice presidents to plan for pending changes in the ways higher education is accessed.
The Franklin Properties office building (the former Cliff-star Corp. headquarters that was given to the foundation)
and the StartUP NY initiative that provides tax incentives for businesses to increase jobs and stimulate economic vitality have tremendous potential to benefit the region. This building, located in downtown Dunkirk, is a modern facility ready for occupancy.
The Fredonia Technology Incubator, also located in Dunkirk, is adopting a greater entrepreneurial focus that includes the relationship between arts and technology companies, spe-cifically playing off the university’s strengths in visual and performing arts. It’s yet another asset that distinguishes Fre-donia and is benefitting our students through internships and other experiences as well as the region’s economy.
The ability to fund student scholarships – our primary mis-sion for more than 40 years – continues to grow. Even though overall investment gains were not as robust as in the prior year, the market value of the foundation’s endowment increased to $28.9 million at the end of 2014. The 2.6 percent increase means an additional $33,000 will be made available to stu-dents during the 2015-16 academic year. Just over $960,000 was spent on scholarships, awards and academic program-ming in 2014-15, a substantial increase from the $737,325 that was spent in the prior year.
The number of endowments managed by the foundation grew by a healthy 14, and now stands at 433. Again, students are the beneficiaries.
I also take this opportunity to welcome three members to the foundation board. They are: Karl Holz, ’73, president of New Vacation Operations and Disney Cruise Line; Elizabeth Star, a former Dunkirk resident; and Michael Schiavone, ’73, a senior partner in a Buffalo, N.Y., law firm and a former board member. Also, a generous “thank you” is extended to outgoing member David Foley for his service.
The board, which meets three times each year, is at its full complement of 35 members and continues to provide strong support for the professional staff led by Dr. David Tiffany.

President Virginia Horvath and Senior Class President Anthony Mercedes, a Bronx, N.Y., native, display a photo-graph of the new outdoor granite fountain, the Class of 2015's gift to the university. Senior class members raised about $12,000 for the fountain that was placed adjacent to the Williams Center patio. A plaque mounted on the fountain was donated by A.D. Titus Monuments owner Ken Haas.

ANNUAL REPORT 2014
Since I became President at Fredonia in 2012, the campus has been in the midst of tremendous trans-formation, reflecting changes in higher education at state and national levels. Simultaneously, the Fredonia College Foundation has been implementing a sound financial strategy to increase giving levels and market value so that additional funds can provide student scholarships and programming.
This is a challenging — and exciting — time for Fredonia and its students, and I am glad to work with the dedicated faculty and staff who are together writing the next chapter of Fredonia’s history.
Last year, the Fredonia College Foundation’s endowment grew by 2.6 percent, to $28.9 million, thus mak-ing it possible to increase the total value of available scholarships by $33,000. Total giving exceeded $3.3 million during 2014, while receipts during the first half of 2015 totaled nearly $900,000. That’s more than $390,000 over the corresponding period in 2014.
The number of endowments grew from 420 to 433 in 2014. You can read about one of these new endow-ments, the Tom Everett Memorial Scholarship, as well as how the Class of 1959 is continuing its longstanding support of the College Lodge, in this annual report.
The new Science Center is in its second year of operation, with students thrilled with the opportunities to work in its laboratories and study in its classrooms and other learning spaces. Fredonia is in the midst of another transformational construction project, the expansion and renovation of the Rockefeller Arts Center. The first floor of the addition, which will house sculpture, ceramics, and scenery painting, should be ready for students in December. The second floor of the addition, to be used by dance and acting students, is to be finished by April 2016. Renovation of spaces in the original building will start as spaces in the addition become occupied. When completed by August 2016, the $39 million project will produce nearly 40,000 more square feet of teaching and learning space for the arts, as well as a connector to Mason Hall and a more accessible, single entrance for arts events.
The Rockefeller Arts Center addition offers new opportunities for alumni and friends to connect with Fredonia through naming opportunities that support scholarships, programs, and department necessities. Pledges totaling $400,000 have been made for spaces in Rockefeller to date. A wide range of giving levels has been established for naming spaces, beginning as low as $5,000.
Some naming opportunities in the Science Center are still available to support science education, re-search, and scholarship. Please contact any member of Fredonia’s development team to learn how you can become part of these exciting projects too!
Fredonia, identified as a major player in the Western New York economy within a recent study by the University at Buffalo’s Regional Institute, continues to raise its standing as an economic generator through its Division of Engagement and Economic Development. I am truly excited about the prospects that have been generated by the StartUp NY initiative and the roles that the university, Technology Incubator, and foundation can play to strengthen our region.
This annual report highlights many ways Fredonia alumni and friends — acting individually or collec-tively — can make it possible to build upon this university’s strengths. Financial contributions made through endowments and scholarships help to counter the impact of ever-declining state support. Today, less than 12 percent of our consolidated operating budget is funded by New York. Fortunately, our foundation team has just made giving to Fredonia easier than ever before, with the launch of a new online tool that now makes giving (including smaller, manageable recurring gifts) possible right from your phone or other mobile device. Just visit www.fredonia.edu/giving.
Alumni and friends can also support Fredonia by serving on advisory committees and boards, giving guest lectures and even assisting with student recruitment.
Fredonia has made great strides to strengthen its position as one of New York’s leading universities. With your support, I have no doubt that we will all continue to make a difference in the lives of its students for generations to come.

The Dallas K. Beal Legacy Society recognizes alumni and friends who have included the State University of New York at Fredonia in their estate plans. Their gifts come in many forms, including bequests by will, charitable gift annuities, charitable trusts, beneficiary designation of retirement plans, life insurance and bequest savings bonds. All are greatly appreciated and help to ensure the tradition of excellence for generations to come.
DALLAS K. BEAL LEGACY SOCIETY
MEMBER PROFILE
Dr. Beal came to the Fredonia Normal School in 1958 as Director of Education. He advanced to Dean of Professional Studies and then in 1969 to Vice President for Academic Affairs. In 1970, he was named Interim President of Fredonia and became the university’s 10th President in 1972, serving until 1984, when he became Acting Executive Vice Chancellor of the SUNY system.
In 1985, Dr. Beal was named President of the Connecticut State University system, overseeing the state’s four colleges and over 37,000 students, and served in that position for nearly 10 years. Upon his retirement, he and his wife, Elizabeth “Kris,” returned to Fredonia, and in 1996 he again served as Interim President of Fredonia. In 1997, the SUNY Board of Trustees honored him with the title of President Emeritus.
In light of Dr. Beal’s unparalleled service, it seemed only fitting to rename the Heritage Society, established in 1988, to the Dallas
K. Beal Legacy Society. Dr. and Mrs. Beal had been consistent and generous donors to the college foundation. They also created the Dr. Dallas K. and Elizabeth W. Beal Award, given to an undergraduate who demonstrates unusually strong and notable leadership in student government and/or service to the broader university or local community. In addition, the Beals named the Fredonia College Foundation as a beneficiary of a bequest in their estate plans.
When Dr. Beal passed away in 2002, Fredonia lost a marvelous friend, tremendous advocate and great leader. But his legacy lives on in perpetuity. What a wonderful memory it is and will continue to be for all of us.
Planned gifts play a critical role in the future of Fredonia. We are forever grateful for this commitment, and honor those who have become members of the Dallas K. Beal Legacy Society.
Designating Communication majors as recipients of a scholar-ship they created through the Fredonia College Foundation was a “no-brainer” for Rich and Pam (Chase) Ryan.
Both graduates, from the classes of ’86 and ’87, respectively, majored in Communication. And upon reflecting on their lives over the last two decades, Rich and Pam credit their Fredonia education for career success that ultimately led both to become entrepreneurs.
Not to be overlooked, of course, Fredonia is where they met.“We feel very strongly about giving back to Fredonia because
we wouldn’t be where we are today without the educational foundation that we both received there,” the couple attest. “We appreciate how hard students and their families work to obtain a quality education and we wanted to play a small part to help ease financial obligations.”
The Richard G. and Pamela C. Ryan Endowment Scholarship Fund, launched in 2014 with an initial $10,000 gift, is designed to benefit talented sophomore or junior Communication majors with a financial need, with preference to New York State residents.
Rich, who has a minor in English, worked for industry trade associations for over 12 years before starting RGR Services in 2001. He handles advertising, exhibit sales and event planning for small-business clients, and relishes the freedom and flexibility to be an agile problem solver that owning his own firm affords.
“The well-rounded education that I received at Fredonia gave me the background I needed to be a viable candidate in a com-petitive market,” added the Farmingdale, N.Y., native who gained hands-on experience in TV production at WNYF on campus.
Pam held various administrative roles in the corporate world for nearly 20 years before she launched Virtual Ringmaster LLC in 2008 to provide long-term administrative services to small busi-ness owners. And like her husband, Pam also minored in English and worked at WNYF, Fredonia Radio Systems and The Leader.
An internship in Washington, D.C. during her senior year con-vinced Pam to move to the nation’s capital following graduation.
The Aurora, N.Y., native echoes Rich’s sentiments about Fredo-nia, saying a well-rounded education helped her to adapt to the numerous corporate positions.
Both praise the influence that several faculty members had on them.
Rich says Drs. John Malcolm and Ted Schwalbe taught with a passion for the industry that was contagious, and reports that he still draws upon the knowledge that both shared.
Pam “fell in love” with Fredonia during a campus visit led by Dr. Malcolm, who, sadly, passed away earlier this year, and added that the staff and students were friendly and “made me feel right at home.”
The couple, who now reside in Port Clinton, Ohio, met at Erie Dining Hall, started dating a year later and married a year after Pam graduated.
They attended the Communication department awards re-ception in the spring of 2015 and were gratified to meet Sara Fuller and Rachel Fisher, their first two scholarship recipients.

ANNUAL REPORT 2014
*Deceased
REMEMBERING FREDONIAIn addition to annual giving, making a planned gift to Fredonia allows donors to assist the university in its growth and at the same time help to achieve personal goals. The following gift plans often offer tax savings and other advantages to donors.
Bequests: Leave Fredonia a percentage of your estate. Or, make a bequest of money or a particular piece of property.
Securities: Give stocks that have increased greatly in value, particularly those producing a low yield. If you have owned them longer than one year, you will pay no capital gains tax on the transaction, and you can deduct the full fair market value.
Bank Accounts and CDs: Name Fredonia as the “payable-on-death beneficiary” of your bank account or certificates of deposit. You own the assets for your lifetime and have them available for your use. Upon your death, the assets pass directly to us without going through probate.
Retirement Plan Assets: Your most efficient estate planning option may be leaving all or a portion of your retirement plan to charity, because tax laws often subject these assets to the highest combined income and estate taxes upon death. Many techniques can be used to avoid combined tax rates of nearly 65 percent. At the same time, you can pass more tax-favored assets to your family.
Charitable Gift Annuity: This is a simple contract between you and Fredonia that pays you a fixed dollar amount for your lifetime. The older you are, the higher your annuity rate. If you use appreciated property to fund the gift annuity, you will escape the capital gains tax on the gift portion of the
transaction. Plus, you are able to spread the remaining capital gains tax over your lifetime. You also receive a partial income tax deduction.
Charitable Remainder Trust: A charitable remainder trust pays a fixed or variable income to the donor. The payments are made either for life or a period of time not to exceed 20 years. At the end of the trust’s term, the balance in the trust supports our mission. You’ll also receive a partial income tax deduction.
Charitable Lead Trust: This type of charitable trust pays income to one or more charitable organizations, typically for a period of years, after which the remaining trust assets pass to family members.
Real Estate: This is a simple donation if you own property that is not mortgaged, has appreciated in value, and you no longer need or use. You can deduct the fair market value of your gift and avoid all capital gains taxes. Plus, you have removed that asset from your taxable estate.
Life Insurance: Rather than cancel policies you no longer need, you could name Fredonia as the beneficiary, or simply donate the policies outright.
Note: All gifts are subject to the Fredonia College Foundation’s Gift Acceptance Policies.

Phil Frankino is, in the words of one of his biology professors, “driven” to succeed as a re-search scientist.
The senior Biochemistry major from Derby, N.Y., spent the summer of 2014 in the molecu-lar genetics lab of Biology Associate Professor Scott Ferguson, and he’s back there this fall. He has practically lived at the Science Center since it opened a year ago.
But he wasn’t there this past summer. Phil was in La Jolla, Calif., completing an internship at the Scripps Research Institute, a pioneer in biomedical research, thanks to the generosity of Dr. Jeffery Kelly, a 1982 Fredonia graduate who chairs its Department of Molecular and Experimental Medicine.
Phil owes his internship to an endowment established by Dr. Kelly through the Fredonia College Foundation. It covered his housing ex-penses and provided a weekly stipend, pushing total endowment support to nearly $8,000. He also benefitted from a Dr. Robert Maytum Scholarship.
Phil's roadmap to Scripps began last fall. He attended a research presentation that Kelly gave during the Science Center’s grand opening and knew that Scott Gergelis, a fellow Biology major, had completed a Scripps intern-ship. After enlisting support from Biochemistry Professor Matthew Fountain and Biology Department Chair Patricia Astry, Phil con-nected with Kelly through Dr. David Tiffany, executive director of the Fredonia College Foundation.
For a riveting 12 weeks, Phil compiled research in a two-laboratory collaboration fo-cusing on a model of Transthyretin Amyloidosis
disease, in which a protein present in the blood and cerebral spinal fluid can contain a muta-tion that ultimately causes neuronal death in the peripheral nervous system.
Phil had the opportunity to interact fre-quently with Kelly, who provided support on the project’s direction and held individual meetings with Phil to help him prepare for the rigorous graduate school application process.
The internship may open doors at schools across the nation, including Scripps. He also plans to share his Scripps experience with Fredonia classmates and faculty, and apply new laboratory experience in Dr. Ferguson’s lab.
“All of this will, without a doubt, help propel me into the next step to ultimately accomplish my career goal of obtaining a Ph.D. and con-tinuing higher level research,” Phil explained, in either academia or industry.
Ferguson said Phil “is one of the most mo-tivated and driven students that I have had the pleasure to work with. He stays up at night thinking about his research project, the next steps, and potential hypotheses.” Phil’s 'talents at the bench,' (that’s lab-speak for the ability to plan and manipulate experimental variables), are second to none, Ferguson adds.
Financial support through gifts made to the foundation helps place talented stu-dents such as Phil on the road for success.

Endowment spurs journey into scientific research
FREDONIA COLLEGE FOUNDATION

They may have graduated from Fredonia more than five decades ago, but members of the Class of 1959 have proven to be forward-thinkers. They have raised, and continue to raise, significant dollars to support sustainability projects that benefit the College Lodge.
It was at their 50-year reunion that class members launched a visionary campaign to generate ongoing funding for green energy initiatives at the lodge.
“We wanted to do something for the college, and we felt that green energy was the thing to do because it was costing the lodge money for electricity,” said Senior Class President Ed Buseck. Class members cherished the lodge, which was an ideal setting for camping, nature walks and skiing.
The Class of 1959 wanted to show current and future students that they had a vision for the lodge, and the environment in general, and they wanted to leave their mark at the College Lodge with alternative energy sources in operation.
“Rather than building an endowment the class decided to have all of its funds directed immediately to support alternative energy initiatives at the lodge,” explained Karen West, senior director of Development with the Fredonia College Foundation.
Starting in 2009, class members made annual contributions through the Fredonia College Foundation to support green initiatives. The ongoing funding campaign was led by Diane Coville, Ronald Harrington and Mr. Buseck.
Their donations helped to finance two wind turbines that were installed in 2011 and remained in operation until this past year, when one was struck by lightning and the other was beset by mechanical failure.
But class members had no intention of abandoning their commitment to the lodge. Funds that they continue to raise were combined with the insurance reimbursement, proceeds from
the sale of scrap medal from the idled turbines, and grants obtained by the Faculty Student Association (FSA), which owns and operates the lodge, to purchase a new solar-energy panel system that was put into operation in July.
“They work pretty well; they get a good amount of sun, and solar panels have evolved to be more sensitive to sun,” explained Buseck, who taught biology and conservation at Cassadaga Valley High School and happens to live on the same ridge just four miles from the lodge.
Also this past summer, the class established its own pooled fund within the Doors to Opportunity Pooled Fund to provide a mechanism to channel, in perpetuity, financial support into new green energy projects at the lodge. Class members can donate gifts of cash, securities, real estate, life insurance and bequests at any time. When the fund reaches $10,000, the foundation will allocate a percentage of earnings, currently at 4.5 percent, to support green initiatives.
“Without Karen West we would not have made it,” Buseck said, explaining that she thought it was a fabulous idea and worked diligently to make it happen.
Though he transferred to Syracuse University to study pre-law (Fredonia offered only elementary education, speech education and music education in the 1950s), Mr. Harrington remains connected to Fredonia. He attended the 25- and 50-year reunions of the Class of 1959 and makes it a point to visit the campus and foundation staff every year. He was very active on campus during his one year at Fredonia and was freshman class president.
“I have nothing but fond memories of Fredonia,” said Harrington, who earned a law degree in 1967 and continues to practice law in Ventura, Calif. “Fredonia has a unique and special place in my heart.”

With strong academic credentials at a private high school in Rochester, N.Y., Charlotte Passero had considerable latitude to choose a college or university. But it took only one campus visit, an informal meeting with a School of Business professor and a Keeper of the Dream scholarship to make Fredonia her first choice.
“The first time I visited Fredonia, I knew it was the right college for me,” Charlotte explained. She found Dr. Linda Hall, who teaches accounting, to be “helpful, kind and inviting.” The school’s smaller enrollment and location were appealing as well.
The Our Lady of Mercy High School graduate underscores the value of the Keeper of the Dream Scholarship, citing it as the “most influential” factor that led to her decision to enroll at Fredonia. The sizeable monetary benefit – a $4,000 renewable scholarship issued to four incoming first-year students – helps make college a reality for many academically talented students.
A wide range of donors that encompasses businesses, alumni and friends of the university have funded Keeper of the Dream scholarships since the program was established by Fredonia’s Division of Student Affairs in 2002.
Just as significant to Charlotte are the intangibles of scholarship, leadership, and service that accompany the award, such as participation in multicultural activities and the Advanced Leadership Development Program. She also volunteers and works as a teacher aide in the Campus and Community Children’s Center in the before-school program.
The Keeper of the Dream program builds leaders, promotes multiculturalism throughout the
community and offers what Charlotte describes as “amazing opportunities.” For her, that meant a 2015 fall internship in the Office of Student Affairs, where she’s working on an accounting project with Vice President David Herman and Associate Vice President Monica White.
Charlotte, a junior majoring in Accounting and Finance, has immersed herself in a wide range of programs and activities, including many that are career related. As special events chair of the Accounting Society e-board, she plans and organizes several events each semester, including two that she established: the "International Accounting Day Jeopardy Tournament" and the "Fredonia Feud Tournament."
As part of the Advanced Leadership Development Program, she and six fellow students created Seniors of Dunkirk, an event held at the Chautauqua Adult Day Care Center that connected students to clients of the center.
“It was incredibly rewarding to meet and get to know the clients at the day care center,” Charlotte recalled. “All of our hard work paid off when we saw how the clients appreciated our event.”
In a community service project through the Council for Exceptional Children, Charlotte and other students helped teach socialization skills to children with exceptionalities.
She has also served as an accounting clerk, assisting with day-to-day accounting practices of the accounts payable department at a Rochester optical business during a summer internship.
After graduation, Charlotte plans to earn a master’s degree in Public Accountancy at St. Bonaventure University and take the CPA exam.

“He wanted to be remembered in some way, not just for who he was, but for what he could do for others.”
That’s how Diane Everett frames the Tom Everett Memorial Scholarship that she created through the Fredonia College Foundation in honor of her late husband, who passed away last October following a heroic battle with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), or Lou Gehrig’s Disease.
“Before he died, he spoke to me at length about what sort of legacy he would be leaving behind,” Diane recalled. “When he died, after seven years of fighting hard against this terrible disease, I decided that a scholarship at the school he loved so much would be the perfect legacy for this incredible man and teacher.”
This new scholarship will support Education majors — ideally with a middle school concentration — who exemplify what Tom stood for as an educator.
Teaching was Tom’s life calling. Diane remembers that he loved the job and going to school every day, and colleagues and students alike loved him because of his warmth, kindness and generous personality.
Students enrolled in today's College of Education would be hard-pressed to be connected to a more gifted teacher than this 1968 alumnus.
Tom was 10 years old when his family moved to Fredonia. After earning his bachelor’s degree, he taught high school history in Bemus Point and, after his position was eliminated, relocated to Wilton, Conn., where two of his former Fredonia High School teachers were working. He became a middle school social studies teacher at Middlebrook School.
Tom, who earned a master’s degree in Education from Western Connecticut State University, was an integral part of his school’s heart and soul. He was a department chair, engaged in extra-
curricular activities, performed in faculty plays and wrote and performed original songs for faculty gatherings. He also wrote and performed songs about American history to engage students.
At Wilton High School, Tom, who played baseball at Fredonia, coached baseball and softball and played basketball every week with fellow teachers and community members.
Diane reports that his “claim to fame” at Fredonia was being the lead singer of “The Heard,” which performed at college dances and area clubs and also opened for Sly and the Family Stone in their Buffalo television appearance.
Teaching — and Fredonia, for that matter — are part of the Everett family makeup.
Family visits to Western New York and the campus convinced their son, Jonathan, to bypass Connecticut schools and enroll at Fredonia to earn an education degree.
“His father and I never dreamed our son would think of going to school here since most of his friends were going to UConn, but we were thrilled,” Diane explained. Today, he’s a fifth-grade teacher in North Carolina, and credits Fredonia for giving him quality teacher preparation.
While in Connecticut, Diane taught foreign languages at two schools, including her husband’s.
Retirement enabled the couple to relocate to Fredonia. Tom, who taught for 40 years, envisioned auditing classes and teaching part-time, but the ALS diagnosis changed everything. Diane joined her husband’s alma mater as an adjunct faculty member in the World Languages and Cultures department in 2009.
Everett family support of Fredonia goes back many years to an award established in honor of Tom’s sister, a secretary for over 40 years. The Barbara Saletta Meritorious Service Award recognizes secretarial or clerical employees for outstanding service attitude.

<– America’s favorite stand-up scientist, Bill Nye, delivered the keynote address of the annual Convocation Series to a capacity crowd in Steele Hall Arena in September 2014. “The Science Guy” was a perfect fit for the “Joy of Discovery” theme that commemorated the opening of Fredonia’s new Science Center. His talk—as informative as it was entertaining—was peppered by the “change the world” challenge that Nye has issued to a generation of children that include today’s college students. The Convocation Keynote Address is funded by the Maytum Lecture Endowment and the Williams Visiting Professorship Endowment through the Fredonia College Foundation.

"SUSANNAH" / HILLMAN OPERAThe Hillman Opera presented “Susannah,” a masterpiece of 20th century American music and theatre, in November 2014. The age-old morality tale, highlighted by stunning Appalachian folk music themes framed in great operatic drama, is the third-most-often performed American opera. The two sets of principals in Fredonia’s production — Margaret Van Norden and Michael Hawk, and Danielle Beckvermit and Colin Mann—were among more than 100 students from the School of Music and Department of Theatre and Dance that participated in the production. –>

SCIENCE CENTER <– The dedication of the new Science Center highlighted Homecoming Weekend in October. The $60 million facility serves over 500 students enrolled in the STEM disciplines. Even before it opened last fall, Fredonia saw increases in the numbers of applications, acceptances and enrolled students in its natural sciences programs. To date, donors have made contributions and pledges totaling more than $2 million in support of science learning and student-faculty research, through more than 30 naming opportunities in the facility.
Dr. Jeffery Kelly, ’82 (with scissors), Chairman of Molecular and Experimental Medicine at Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla, Calif, received his B.S. in Chemistry from Fredonia. At Scripps, he led a team in the discovery of a drug that cures a rare amyloid liver disease — part of a class of diseases that includes Alzheimer’s. He honored his family by naming the Science Center’s new auditorium, to thank them for their support.

Fredonia student jazz vocalists Lovely Philema, Gabby Carr, Alex Behrens, Vaughn Faison, Jimmy Hartmann, Nathan Guarnere, Katelyn Dietz and Kate Gratson sang with the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra at its “Glorious Gershwin” concert at Klein-hans Music Hall in November 2014. They were guests of featured artist and guest conductor Matt Catingub. Bruce Johnstone, Fredonia’s director of Curricular Jazz, considered the vocal ensemble, comprised of just one senior, to be the “absolute cream of the crop,” and praised their singing style as a perfect match for the unique Gershwin arrangements. –>

The School of Music entered into an agreement in October 2014 with the world-renowned Pescara Conservatory in Italy to create educational exchang-es between the two institutions. Up to three students will study abroad on an alternating basis under the agree-ment, which is Pescara’s first with an American university. Faculty will also teach master classes. The initiative will enable Fredonia students to learn under some of the finest composers and music educators in Italy, home of opera and much of Western musical culture. –>

<– Author Brian Castner shared his experiences and observations with students in Rosch Recital Hall. His book, “The Long Walk: A Story of War and the Life that Follows,” chronicles his experiences as the leader of a military bomb disposal unit in Iraq and his struggles upon returning home. Now living in Buffalo, Castner served in the U.S. Air Force from 1999 to 2007 before becoming an independent civilian contractor to train soldiers and Marines on bomb-disposal procedures prior to their tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. His talk in November 2014, part of the 2014-2015 Convocation Series, was sponsored by the Williams Visiting Professor Endowment and Maytum Lecture Endowment.

<– Tracy Martin, father of Trayvon Martin, whose shooting by a neighborhood watch captain in Florida spurred a national discussion and debate on race relations, addressed students in King Concert Hall in February. In remarks given around the country, Martin promotes proper conflict resolution techniques and calls on parents to let their children know how much they are loved and valued. Fredonia's Black Student Union hosted his talk, which was part of the campus observance of Black History Month.

<– Highlights – and high notes – filled the School of Music in March with the return of Professor Emeritus Robert Jordan. The internationally renowned pianist joined a celebration recital at Rosch Recital Hall that featured Fredonia alumni pianists and drew an audience of several hundred alumni, faculty, current students and community members. In large group photo, Jordan (center) is joined by fellow musicians (from left): Kathryn Meyer Toolan, ’04, teacher, Mount Sinai, N.Y.; Anne Denis, ’04, Hoffman Academy, Portland, Ore.; Maryanne Kotylo, ’06, financial analyst, Fort Worth, Texas; Brian Usifer, ’03, Broadway music director, New York City; Sean Lane, ’85, music therapist, pianist, Wash-ington, D.C., Maryland; David Curtin, ’91, professor, Lock Haven University; Justin Pomietlarz, ’98, teacher, Amherst, N.Y.; and James Welch, ’03, adjunct lecturer, staff accompanest, Fredonia. Jordan, who retired from the School of Music in 2004, also con-ducted master classes for select piano majors and connected with students who received Jordan scholarships. He was among the first faculty members at Fredonia to create their own schol-arship to assist students. (Right, bottom) The Mamie and Ira
Jordan Minority Scholarship and Scholastic Achievement Award, created in 1998 in honor of Jordan’s parents, was awarded to: (front row, Antonio Regulier; (back row): Justin Cunningham, Dominique Kempf and Cedric Wilson. (Right, top) Jordan also appears with recipients of the Robert Jordan Piano Scholarship and Distinguished Lectureship (from left): Johnny Shaw, Julianna Grabowski and Colton Garifi, along with Cedric Wilson. The Rob-ert Jordan Piano Scholarship and Distinguished Lectureship was established through the Fredonia College Foundation by alum-ni and friends of Jordan to provide scholarships to promising piano students and to enrich learning opportunities for students. Jordan had a reputation for demanding much of his students and clearly brought out the best in them, and he had a keen sense to recognize talent. Jordan earned a bachelor’s degree from Eastman School of Music and a master’s from Julliard. He received the SUNY Chancellor’s Award for Excellence in Teaching in 1983 and was the Kasling Memorial lecturer in 1996.

<– Pioneering research conducted by Environmental Sciences Professor Sherri “Sam” Mason into the hazards of plastic microbeads found in the Great Lakes and other waterways was released in April by New York State Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman. In the state-funded study, Dr. Mason concluded that tiny plastic abrasives found in hundreds of cosmetics products are passing through a majority of wastewater treatment plants and reaching the Great Lakes and its tributaries. Plastic microbeads absorb toxins and are the same size as fish eggs, so scientists fear they are being consumed by fish. Several states have already banned plastic microbeads, and Schneiderman’s report was expected to renew a push in New York State to do the same.

<– History students “interviewed” Civil War reenactors who are members of the 9th New York Cavalry, based in Westfield, N.Y., and 4th South Carolina regiment at their encampment, near "Three Man Hill," in April. During the three-day visit, students learned about how Union and Confederate soldiers camped and prepared food and were also introduced to examples of weapons and battlefield strategy.

President Horvath interrupted the May 16 afternoon Commencement ceremony — with a sports update. Her surprise announcement to a packed Steele Hall Field House was that Fredonia’s women’s lacrosse team had just defeated Washington & Lee in the third round of the NCAA Division III Tournament. Its 9-5 victory over the No. 10 team in the nation meant the team would advance to the Elite 8 round, ensuring 2015 would be the best in the team’s 20-year history. In her inaugural season, Head Coach Amy Simon, ’12, led the Blue Devils to their first appearance in the NCAA quarterfinals, ending the stellar season with a No. 11 national ranking — the highest in program history. Fredonia racked up 17 wins — four more than its previous high — to finish with a 17-4 mark. Three of those four losses were to teams that advanced to the NCAA Final Four. A 16-9 loss to Franklin and Marshall, the two-time national champion which was ranked No. 3, ended Fredonia’s season May 17. –> WOMEN’S LACROSSE REACHES ELITE 8

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
FINANCIAL POSITION 12-YEAR REVIEW
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Fredonia College Foundation of the State University of New York, Inc., (a New York nonprofit organization) which comprise the statement of financial position as of December 31, 2014, and the related statements of activities and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair pre-sentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting policies generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and main-tenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these finan-cial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in
the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to ob-tain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors' judgment, including the assessment of the risks of ma-terial misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditors consider internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant

STATEMENTS OF ACTIVITIES
accounting estimates made by management, as well as eval-uating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Fredonia College Foundation of the State University of New York, Inc. as of December 31, 2014, and the changes in its net assets and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformi-ty with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial statements of Fredonia College Foundation of the State University of New York, Inc. as of De-cember 31, 2013, were audited by other auditors whose report dated March 27, 2014, expressed an unmodified opinion on those statements. Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements as a whole. The sched-ules of administrative and Franklin Properties, LLC expenses for the year ended December 31, 2014 are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of manage-ment and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying
accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconcil-ing such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or the fi-nancial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial state-ments as a whole. The schedule of administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2013 was subjected to the audit-ing procedures applied in the 2013 audit of the basic financial statements by other auditors, whose report on such information stated that is was fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the 2013 financial statements as a whole.
