CAMPUS

Surplus funds generated by all Cal Poly Pomona Foun-dation operations go back to the University to provide

financial and facility resources to benefit

students, faculty and staff.

2012-2013 United Way CampaignThe Foundation has been invited to join with the University to support the United Way.

In our own community, we have all seen homeless people

on the street begging for help and young students truant from school. There have been times when many of us have probably questioned our own safety in parking lots or even in our own homes. Here is an opportunity for you to do something about supporting programs that help correct these situations.

We are kicking off our United Way campaign for 2012-13. The money that we raise will help support health and human service agencies in this area. Agencies that help the homeless get a fresh start, offer diversion programs for youth to keep them on the positive track, and provide drug prevention programs and counseling for people who might otherwise resort to crime.

Last year, we pledged a yearly gift of $1,212.00. Your generosity has helped people down on their luck. Let’s make it our goal to out-do ourselves and help even more individuals this year.

Contributions can be made one-time or by payroll deductions. Our campaign begins November 5, 2012 and ends November 16, 2012.

If you are currently contributing to United Way, your deduction will continue at the same rate unless a new pledge form is submitted.

I want to emphasize that no one is required to make a donation. Charitable giving is a personal choice. This is an opportunity for you to provide support to a specifi c United Way program, or to their general programming pool.

Thank you for your support,

Paul Storey

Information About Open Enrollment and CalPERS

Greetings from Employment Services! This month we have two items for you. The fi rst item on our list is our Annual Benefi ts Open Enrollment. Open Enrollment is the time of year when our full-time employees are able to make changes to their health benefi ts programs. The period of Open Enrollment is November 5th through November 16th and all benefi t changes will be conducted electronically using Kronos Self-Service—which is fast and convenient for everyone. This year we are using a rollover policy, which means if you have no changes to your healthcare plans, you do not need to do anything at all. However, if you are enrolled in the Flex Spending Plan, you must re-enroll each year since IRS does not allow a “rollover” for these types of benefi ts. Please look for additional information that will be sent to all full-time employees.

The second item on the list, which also applies mainly to employees who receive benefi ts, is important information regarding your CalPERS retirement benefi ts. Pension reform provisions were put into place by the governor of California that could affect your retirement benefi ts or plans. While we strongly encourage all Foundation employees to visit the CalPERS website to personally read the changes and determine how or if the changes apply to their situation, there is one important CalPERS benefi t provision that we will discuss briefl y in this newsletter—which is “purchasing service credit.”

If you have ever considered purchasing service credit, which is also referred to as purchasing “air time,” you will not be able to present a request after January 1, 2013, since this benefi t has been eliminated effective on that date. What this means is you need to take action immediately—complete and submit your request to CalPERS prior to the last day of this year. For planning purposes, it takes CalPERS 4 to 6 months to approve a request to purchase service credit, although once approved, it is retroactive to your request date.

Purchasing service credit is the benefi t which allows you to purchase up to 5 years of “air time,” and whatever time you purchase (in one year increments) is then added to the years you actually worked for Foundation. This approach results in you receiving higher pension benefi ts once you retire. For example, let’s say you have worked for Foundation for 7 years and you decided you wanted to purchase an additional 5 years of service credit. In this situation, your pension benefi ts would be based on 12 years of service—the 7 years you worked and the 5 years you purchased. The CalPERS website has a tool that will provide you an estimate of how much it would cost to purchase service credit, and also shows you several options to pay it.

One fi nal note on purchasing service credit—for Foundation employees enrolled in our PARS 457 plan, it is completely permissible to directly rollover funds from the PARS 457 plan for the purpose of purchasing service credit with CalPERS while still working for Foundation (even if you have no plans to retire in the near future).

Innovation Village’s Infl uence

Innovation Village has grown into an area of immense opportunity for the Cal Poly Pomona campus community. The numerous jobs and internships that are offered truly benefi t those looking to enrich their work experience and advance their careers. Here is just one example of how Innovation Village has helped shape Cal Poly Pomona students and their futures…

After spending three years in Nigeria and four years in Texas, Cal Poly Pomona student Christopher Osuala returned to his California homeland to obtain a Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering and a minor in Business Marketing. While acquiring his education, Christopher has taken on various roles on campus including President of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc., Vice President of National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE), Welcome Week Leader, and Black History Month Committee Chair. While he is busy “serving the students” as Associated Students, Inc. (ASI) President, Christopher also directs his assiduous disposition to his Southern California Edison internship.

For the past two years, Christopher has been interning as a Professional Trainee 1 at the Southern California Edison in Innovation Village. More specifi cally, he works for a group

called Compliance and Quality, which is under the Transmission and Distribution Business Unit. While his internship holds numerous tasks, his primary responsibility is to keep track of the relay misoperations. (Relays are instruments on electrical lines that enable power.)

“This internship has helped me tremendously,” expresses Christopher.

First, his experiences at Southern California Edison have strengthened his confi dence and professional character. “[One of the challenges] is having the courage to speak to those in higher positions. I must have the confi dence to approach them and speak of deadlines [and other signifi cant matters],” confesses Christopher.

Even the way he is required to dress has assisted with his professional growth. After wearing slacks and buttoned-down shirts to his internship for the fi rst time, Christopher quickly realized he favored his new attire.

“These clothes put me in a business mindset and I now carry that mentality and professionalism into the classroom,” comments Christopher.

Second, he has developed a better understanding for the correlation

between his education and his work at Southern California Edison.

“[This internship] has helped me see the purpose of the classes I’m taking and value the things I am learning,” discloses Christopher.

Lastly, interning at Southern California Edison has helped mold his future goals. Christopher hopes to someday convert to full-time and eventually become a manager at Southern California Edison after he acquires his Master of Business Administration degree. He ultimately hopes to become Chief Executive Offi cer of a company like Southern California Edison or own a nonprofi t organization.

Christopher remains confi dent and determined when considering his future goals.

“Being president of ASI is like a warm-up for me,” states Christopher while pondering his aspirations.

Now in his fi nal year at Cal Poly Pomona, Christopher has made a solid imprint on campus with his distinguished titles, notable accomplishments, and diligent demeanor. His ambitious nature has helped him achieve prominent positions that will benefi t his future, like ASI president, and of course, Professional Trainee 1 at Southern California Edison in Innovation Village.

Cal Poly Pomona Foundation, Inc. offers convenient and affordable housing programs to those affi l-iated with Cal Poly Pomona. Residents have the option to select property in Fair Oaks Walk, a lovely community of townhomes just below the scenic San Gabriel Mountains, or in the Kellogg Tract neigh-borhood, a charming area of recently renovated single-family homes adjacent to Cal Poly Pomona.

Over the past summer, minor to moderate renovation took place on several properties located in both areas. After refurbishment, eight of the homes were leased to faculty and staff—four new-hires and four existing affi liates. Half of these tenants moved into Fair Oaks Walk, while the remaining new residents settled in the Kellogg Tract neighborhood.

Cal Poly Pomona Foundation, Inc. now offers a rent-to-own program, where a portion of the monthly rent is saved and applied toward the purchase of the property within three years. This new option has been widely accepted, as most of the new tenants have decided to enroll in the program.

With affordable housing opportunities and the addition of eight new residents, each property in Fair Oaks Walk and the Kellogg Tract neighborhood is nearly full with only two homes available in Fair Oaks Walk.

Big Debate, Big Birds cialageBy: Lily Ly & Darren Isomoto

During and immediately after the fi rst presidential debate, the top words used on Facebook were: “Romney,” “Obama,” and “Debate.” What came in at the number four spot? “Taxes?” “Education?” “Insurance?”

None of the above. The number four spot was claimed by yours truly, “Big Bird.”

That’s right. The name of Sesame Street’s beloved character beat out debate topics such as taxes, education, insurance, Obamacare, and Medicare. This was all a result of Presidential Candidate Mitt Romney stating that while he likes Big Bird, he would cut funding to PBS. It was at this time fi ngers started twitching and the social media universe exploded with comments about everyone’s favorite childhood icon.

This is another example of how social media can really elevate the presence of a brand, celebrity, or political fi gure. The storm of Big Bird tweets (no pun intended), Facebook postings, and internet memes (funny viral images/phrases) further accelerated the trend when it transitioned from social media fame to mass media fame.

The weekend following the fi rst debate, Big Bird himself appeared in the Weekend Update segment on Saturday Night Live and Costumecraze.com reported a 500% increase in sales for their Big Bird Halloween costume.

The Obama Administration continued to stir the controversy by creating an internet video displaying Romney’s distaste for Big Bird. Additionally, Big Bird’s name was mentioned by President Obama two weeks later during the second debate. Oddly enough, it was the fi rst time “Big Bird” was used in the same sentence as “Planned Parenthood.”

In what’s considered to be our most social Presidential Election yet, both administrations are utilizing social media to grab the attention of the voters in order to communicate their ideas, policies, and plan. Words like “Taxes,” “Education,” and “Insurance” are commonly heard during the presidential debates as they have been for decades. However, when we log onto Facebook and see “Elmo better hide because Mitt Romney is going after Big Bird,” you’ve got our attention.

Self-Checkout at Pony Express in CBAWhy Self-Checkout? With more than $192 Billion in sales through self-checkout stations in 2009, this ever-growing technology is becoming more than a trend and has evolved into a service customers expect in growing numbers. Students in a hurry will appreciate the ease-of-use and fast transaction speed in their purchase transactions. The compact intuitive design fi ts comfortably in smaller footprint stores with advanced features like touch screens and a bilingual interface. In addition, implementing self-checkout lanes can free up cashiers to provide better customer service while keeping operating costs down. This automated service could be the fi rst of its kind on a university campus in the nation. As ever, the Foundation is committed to implementing cutting edge solutions to provide the best customer service possible to the Cal Poly Pomona campus community.

Health Fest 2012

On Thursday, October 25, Cal Poly Pomona’s Student Health Services hosted the annual Health Fest, which was once again partnered with the annual alcohol and other drug awareness fair, B.E. S.M.A.R.T. (Better Educated Students Managing Alcohol Responsibilities Together).

The Foundation booth, which was managed by Executive Assistant Anne McLoughlin, Marketing Assistant Amanda Mattox, Vista Market employee Yvette Frausto, and representatives from Hansen Beverage Company and Sempio Food Services, Inc., provided the campus community with important dietary information and giveaways.

Because this event promotes a healthy lifestyle, nutritious food items were handed out to attendees, like raisins, Somersaults sesame snacks, PopCorners snacks, and Mission round yellow corn tortilla chips. Likewise, free beverages included Hansen lemonade and Sempio Korean pomegranate and black rice vinegar drinks.

In addition, the Foundation booth had a prize wheel that awarded participants with coupons to various campus dining venues. Prize wheel spinners received rewards like a free lunch at Los Olivos, a free six inch sandwich from Subway, buy-one-get-one-free Carl’s Jr. salad, and more. Visitors were also handed nutritional fl yers and a Dining Services brochure that features the numerous healthy food choices that are offered throughout campus.

The Foundation table at this year’s Health Fest was an overall success; the free snacks and prize wheel generated a lot of excitement and drew a considerable crowd. For this reason, numerous informational fl yers and brochures were distributed, which ultimately fulfi lled the Foundation’s goal: to offer nutritional details and bring general awareness about the easy, healthful choices available on the Cal Poly Pomona campus.

Pumpkin PrideOn Saturday and Sunday, October 20th and 21st, over 53,000 people attended the 20th Annual Pumpkin Festival—the largest number of attendees to date.

From 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., thousands of visitors had the opportunity to travel through a fi eld of more than 50,000 pumpkins and specially select the ones they want to take home.

Furthermore, guests had the chance to journey through a corn maze, attend a petting zoo, ride a horse, play carnival games, visit around 52 vendors, and eat a variety of food. Early-risers even had the option to enjoy a delicious pancake breakfast hosted by the Collins College.

Thanks to Farm Store manager and Pumpkin Festival coordinator Dawn Taccone and around a hundred volunteers each day, the 20th Annual Pumpkin Festival was a successful, festive occasion.

Welcome to the 2012-2013 school year at Cal Poly Pomona Foundation. I hope you all are as excited and energized as I am about the start of the new school year! Working with the high energy of a University campus can certainly keep you feeling young.

Our challenge is to continue to do everything in our power to give all the students an amazing college experience and all employees of the Foundation play an important role in providing that experience.

I am extremely proud of what the Foundation accomplishes. With all of your efforts we provide quality services, products and much needed fi nancial support for Cal Poly Pomona and our campus community.

Many of you know about your individual departments; Foundation Housing Services, Administration, Bronco Bookstore, Kellogg West Conference Center and Hotel, Real Estate Development and Dining Services, but the Foundation does much more for the University.

Did you know we are also involved with the College of the Extended University non-credit classes, Agriculture Aid to Instruction, Grants and Contracts Post Awards, Endowments and Fund Raising, and Campus Program Accounts including the Theater, The Poly Post, the Ranch at Collins College, student activities and staff activities?

The Foundation is governed by a 24 member Board of Directors which includes faculty, staff, students, community members and administration of Cal Poly Pomona. For a list of Board Members please visit our website http://foundation.csupomona.edu/. While you are at our website, take a look and see all the things and events the Foundation is involved with.

The Foundation is extremely transparent which is clearly displayed on our website. You can fi nd out about our Board and Committee meetings, agendas, minutes, budgets, business plans, etc. I encourage you to review that information and if you have any issues or questions you can always come see me.

We have a sound budget that we should be able to meet. The budget could be affected in the future if Proposition 30 does not pass. Even if state funding is further decreased, we have proven we can react quickly to the situation and adjust.

I feel comfortable that with your support and our supportive Board of Directors, we can accomplish much and meet any challenge. Over the past four years, this has been proven. We have been challenged and emerged as a strong leader in how to do things. Our President, Dr. J. Michael Ortiz, is one of our biggest supporters!

My hope is that you are all proud of what you do, what your department does, and you can stand up with pride and tell anyone what the Foundation does for Cal Poly Pomona University!

Thank you,

Paul Storey
