A MESSAGE FROM THE

PRESIDENT“Find your calling” is a powerful slogan, representing many of our students’ transformations. We also hear “Life change happens here.”

Allow me to lean on the “life change” theme to share a few Campbellsvillian highlights of extraordinary people who are influencing the next generation of servant leaders.

First, our thanks to Brig. Gen. Scott Campbell of the Kentucky National Guard, who led our Homecoming Day, honoring our veterans, protectors of our country.

Two local school superintendents are both Campbellsville grads. Kirby Smith (’94) of Campbellsville Independent School District, and Dr. Charles “Junior” Higdon (’98) with Taylor County School System strive daily to improve the futures of their students.

Connie Wilson (’97) retired after making change for 42 years, serving in academic affairs. Her sweet spirit reflects her colleagues’ dedication.

Ginny Flanagan (’65), my special assistant, has fulfilled many roles at CU. Our Technology Training Center is named in her honor for her bringing work-ready programs to the region.

Russ Mobley, who died Oct. 26, was a remarkably talented and gifted theater professor. His teaching and leadership were admired across the Commonwealth and beyond.

Oscar Vaughn, Leonard VanMeter and Jim Bright received the President’s Senior Service Award. These three, in their post-retirement years, help change students in a subtle manner through encouragement and illustration of work ethic.

Deborah Thomas, our assistant director for the Louisville Education Center, represents well our faculty and staff who worked to make students into graduates for our first summer commencement. Deborah was among those graduates.

I urged the 273 graduates in the Ransdell Chapel to follow the CU example and make a positive change in the world.

And, one of our coaches making a big difference is Miranda “Hootie” Denney, women’s assistant basketball coach. Catch the article on this real game changer.

YOU, as alumni and friends of CU, are making change around the world. We honor you and thank you for making Campbellsville University the strong academic institution she is.

Thank you for your financial support, carrying our capital campaign “Our Time, This Place” beyond its $61.1 million goal! You are helping Campbellsville University to change lives.

We appreciate you.

Most cordially,

Michael V. Carter

“Education and leadership provide me with a platform to serve and make a difference in the lives of others,” Dr. Charles “Junior” Higdon Jr., a 1998 alumnus of Campbellsville University and superintendent of the Taylor County School System, said.

Higdon was recently promoted to superintendent, where he previously served as assistant superintendent of the Taylor County School System and director of various state-wide programs since 2014.

Higdon was the principal of Taylor County High School from 2007 to 2014.

Higdon’s journey, however, began far before, at Campbellsville University.

Higdon was recruited by Haywood Riner, retired Campbellsville University football coach, to play football for the Tigers, and it was his time on the football team that shaped him into the man he is today.

“Coach Ron Finley and Haywood Riner had the most powerful effect on me,” Higdon said.

“They taught me how a man should carry himself correctly. They cared for us, prayed for us, and in turn, gained our respect. Their Christian actions and spirit were the model set for me, and I still strive to be like them today.”

Upon graduating from Campbellsville University, Higdon met his wife, April, and after marrying, they chose to stay in Campbellsville, Ky., and serve the community.

Higdon didn’t always plan to be superintendent.

“I aspired to be a concrete man and a farmer like my father,” Higdon said. “However, due to my parents' encouragement, I decided to give college a try.”

Higdon said education provided him the perfect career path.

“I have a spirit to serve others,” Higdon said.

And as a superintendent, Higdon will do just that.

“The board of education hired me to lead and serve the educational stakeholders of Taylor County.”

Higdon, in a story in the Central Kentucky News-Journal, said he has committed to giving 100 percent each day that he is on the job.

“I’ll tell you, I’m giving you my commitment that I will do my best every single day,” Higdon said.

“I never saw myself doing anything with teaching, but God has a way of putting you where He wants you,” Kirby Smith, superintendent of Campbellsville Independent Schools and ’94 alumnus of Campbellsville University, said.

Smith began working for Campbellsville Independent Schools as a special education teacher in 2004, returning to Campbellsville, Ky., after working for the Spencer County School system since 1994. He became assistant principal of Campbellsville High School in 2008. A year later, he became principal and remained in that position until his promotion to superintendent in 2016.

While at Campbellsville High School, he was also the head baseball coach.

“I had no intention of pursuing a career in education. My degree from Campbellsville College was in psychology and sociology,” Smith said.

“I am a firm believer that God has led me down this career path of education to make a difference in the lives of children.”

Smith said that much of what he learned began at Campbellsville University, then Campbellsville College.

Smith came to Campbellsville University for a number for reasons.

“It [Campbellsville University] was close to home. I received a scholarship to play baseball and I wanted to attend a small college,” Smith said.

While at Campbellsville University, Smith was heavily influenced by his professors.

“I had some amazing professors and got to become really close with the faculty,” Smith said.

“I had a front row seat in watching how the folks at Campbellsville College were truly servant leaders. I have never and will never forget how special Campbellsville College made me feel.”

Smith is entering his second year as superintendent at Campbellsville Independent Schools.

“As superintendent, I am the executive officer of the school system, responsible for carrying out all policies, rules and regulations established by the board,” Smith said.

“As superintendent, I do not get to interact as much with the students as I did as principal, but, at the same time, I have been able to spend more time at our other schools, getting to know our students and staff.”

In a letter he wrote to all students and parents on the Campbellsville Independent Schools’ website, he states it is his mission to make sure all of his students are successful.

“It is my goal for every student to graduate from our school system as college or career ready, with the

skills necessary to pursue opportunities of their choosing after high school.

“It is our belief that our small, caring atmosphere creates a learning environment

second to none that allows all students the opportunity to be successful,” Smith said.

Smith is married to Andrea Deaton Smith, a 1995 alumna, who was a CU Lady Tiger basketball star.

After four decades of working at Campbellsville University, Connie Wilson, academic coordinator, is writing a new chapter of her life – one of retirement.

Wilson has worked in the Office of Academic Affairs (with a short stint in the former Office of Public Relations and Marketing, now University Communications) for more than 40 years.

She was honored Aug. 29 with a reception where many people expressed their appreciation for her.

Dr. Donna Hedgepath, provost and vice president for academic affairs, with whom Wilson has worked for the last three years, said, “Proverbs 31 really reminds me of Connie. She is a representation of a servant leader. She has a heart for Campbellsville

and has been a part of its growth. She is just a good person.”

Throughout her 42-year-career at Campbellsville University, Wilson also worked under Dr. Frank Cheatham who said, “I couldn’t have done my job without her support. She is a valuable treasure who will be missed.”

She also worked under the late Dr. Robert S. Clark and David Jester.

Her public relations work was under Ginny Flanagan, who now serves as special assistant to the president.

Dr. Michael V. Carter, who is beginning his 20th year as president, said the first time he met Wilson was when he wanted to understand how classrooms were assigned. “Connie put the jigsaw together, and I have admired her ever since,” he said.

“She’s just been one of the hardest working and professional people I’ve ever known.”

Others described Wilson in various ways, including Amanda Smith, secretary to Otto Tennant, vice president for finance and administration, who said Wilson was “a leader.”

To Dr. Milton Rogers, who retired in May as professor of biology, Wilson was “the glue that held the school together.”

Dr. Donna Wise, chair of the department of human performance and assistant professor of physical education and athletics, described Wilson as “the problem solver.” And Steve Skaggs, director of the Cheatham Center for Teaching and Learning, called Wilson “the go-to person.”

Teresa Elmore, director of career services at Campbellsville University, has worked at the university for 37 years and said, “Connie’s been my friend for more than 37 years — even before working here at CU. I will miss seeing her on campus. She has been a vital part of helping thousands of students.”

Wilson received the Campbellsville University Staff Servant Leadership

Award in 2011. This award is given to someone who consistently demonstrates a servant’s heart of leadership on campus and the greater community.

Wilson graduated cum laude from Campbellsville College in December 1996. She earned her bachelor’s degree while working full time at the university.

In 2004, she received her Master of Arts in Education from Western Kentucky University taking classes at night and on weekends while also working full time.

She is the daughter of the late W.G. and Marian Weatherford Perkins. Her mother was a CU alumna as are her two daughters, Heather Wilson Cole and Holly Lynn Wilson. She has two grandsons, Will Cole and Kash Pisciotti, and is married to Danny Wilson. She belongs to Eastside Baptist Church in Campbellsville.

When Wilson doesn’t come into the office each day, Venita Hooper will be one of the people who will miss her.

Hooper, secretary for the Office of Academic Affairs, said she’s been with Wilson for 10 years. “I’ve learned a lot from her,” she said. “I’m going to miss in the mornings her saying ‘Good morning.’”

At the conclusion of the speeches, a very loved Connie Wilson spoke and gave her few final thoughts, “I’m lost for words, I have enjoyed every moment of working at the university.”

What is next for Wilson?

“I plan to spend more time with my family, especially my two grandsons. I would also like more time to read, and I’ve always had the desire to refresh my skills and practice playing the piano. It’s a good stress reliever. I’ll also travel with my husband a little.”

“These postcards are more valuable than any baseball card. They are one of a kind, and no one else has them,” Carl Howell, (’61) student and baseball player at Campbellsville University, and practicing lawyer of 45 years of Hodgenville, Ky., said.

Howell and his baseball card collection have recently been the subject of an article in Kentucky Living, which mentions his ownership of a baseball card collection reaching back to the 1950s.

Despite the many years since his collection began, when Howell was only 10 years old, he has managed to keep a number of baseball cards and baseball memorabilia, including a signed baseball by Joe Adcock, power hitter of the Milwaukee Braves, various signed postcards which resembled a large version of the player’s baseball cards, a photo and letter from the father of

all-star, Wally Moon of the St. Louis Cardinals, and many others.

Yet, despite his unique and, what some would assume, valuable baseball card and memento collection, Howell was more excited by his vast collection of vintage Kentucky postcards, which he estimates numbers anywhere between 20,000 and 30,000 and began in 1991.

His collection has garnered national attention as he owns 20,000 pre-1920 Kentucky postcards.

Howell would be considered an authority on the matter of deltiology, or the study and collection of postcards, as he believes he has the largest collection in the Commonwealth of Kentucky and has written around 28 or more contributing articles in “Kentucky Explorer” on the matter of postcards and other historical interests.

Deltiology is the third largest collectable hobby, only behind coins and stamps.

Howell has even put together a book titled “Kentucky in the early 1900s: a postcard tribute.”

He also plans to coordinate with other postcard collectors to co-author another book featuring postcards from every county of Kentucky. This project is to be titled “Kentucky’s 120 counties: (1900-1925)—A postcard album.”

“Between the years of 1905 and 1950, billions of postcards were sent around the United States,” Howell said.

“This was considered the golden age for postcards.”

Of course, after the mass production and use of the telephone, postcards became less useful, and began to decline, according to Howell.

Howell would also call himself a bit of a history buff, having written and published a small book on Abraham Lincoln’s early years, titled “Lincoln’s Kentucky Years.”

Howell also owns an extensive collection of Abraham Lincoln memorabilia and has furnished his study with the collection, coming to refer to this room as his “Lincoln room.”

He was also invited to speak at the Lincoln Days Celebration, Inc. annual luncheon in commemoration of Hodgenville’s bicentennial celebration in February, where he spoke on the history of Hodgenville, Ky.

In 2000, he was honored with the Richard Burks Lincoln Heritage Award for his significant contributions, which have added to the understanding of the heritage of LaRue County, and for perpetuating the ideals Abraham Lincoln had at the Lincoln Day Celebration.

Bane’s dreams come true from football to fi lm

BY HOLLY JO EVANS, STUDENT NEWS WRITER

Everyone has a dream of what they want to be when they grow up. Some dream to be doctors or lawyers, others dream to be a barber or a professional athlete. Campbellsville University alumnus, James Bane ('02) had a dream he didn’t believe he could accomplish, but now is proving his doubts wrong.

As a boy, Bane dreamed of being an actor. The epiphany occurred during a 4th grade talent show when he made his class laugh by getting pied in the face. He realized then he could bring joy to others’ lives. That desire planted itself inside him, but as he grew up, he never thought he had what it took.

Bane visited Campbellsville University as a football recruit. During his visit he went to a show and loved what he saw and knew then that he wanted to be part of it.

While attending CU, Bane was in many shows, as well as being a part of other clubs and groups. Bane was on the football team, cheerleading team, a member of FCA and was president of his class. He was also voted Mr. Campbellsville University, as well. He majored in communications with an emphasis in theater.

Bane joined the military reserves his junior and senior year. He served in the Marines for three years after school. Later he worked with men who were overcoming their physical disabilities. They inspired him

because if they could overcome their disabilities, he could give acting a chance. He landed a job as a stunt actor at Disney in 2005. Six months later, he went back to active duty.

After, he spent a month traveling until he ended up in L.A., where he decided to give his acting dream a chance. He was accepted into the University of Southern California where he began working on his master’s in fine arts. He was in a few roles here and there and never turned anything down. He’s been in several TV commercials; the most well known one being a Super Bowl commercial where he played an astronaut.

He was an extra in The Young and the Restless and NCIS where he had

lines, that were later cut in editing. Bane is a member of the Actor’s Gang and works with Tim Robbins, actor and founder of the group. They are a non-profit theater group that goes into prisons and schools to teach people about acting. They play acting games that help with stress and allows them to be themselves. They’re not just teaching acting, but they are teaching life techniques as well.

Bane continues to act in movies, and also works on sets as a military advisor. He enjoys being in film but he says, “TV acting feeds me, it pays the bills, but theater feeds my soul.” Bane is grateful that he has a career doing what he loves, and he credits his success to his time at Campbellsville University and the Marines.

“CU is and will always be a part of who and what we are, whether we are a student, faculty, staff or alumni. So, embrace your heritage and history as you make your mark,” Ginny Flanagan, part-time special assistant to the president of Campbellsville University, said.

Flanagan, a 1965 alumna who served as director of the Virginia Ponser Flanagan Technology Training Center and director of alumni, public relations and TV, was the Heritage Day chapel guest speaker Sept. 5.

Flanagan welcomed the students back from their summer filled with mission trips, work and athletic

practice. She spoke about how heritage is important to who we are and how heritage can mean a lot to people.

“We need to understand our heritage in order to understand who and what we are,” Flanagan said. “Heritage can mean a lot of things. It can include dates, major events and people,” she said. Flanagan said that those who came before us helped to shape the world we live in today, including Campbellsville University.

She talked about how we cannot forget that the heritage we have today has been passed down to us and what we create will be handed down as well.

When Flanagan thinks about the heritage of CU and what she has given to the world, many things come to mind. The academics provided by the university have allowed people to become doctors, lawyers, teachers, theologians, musicians, civic and industrial leaders, photographers, artists and journalists.

“There is another aspect to our heritage, one that is really not proclaimed on the college brochures or admission advertisements,” Flanagan said. She called it Christ-like humanity and said it also plays a role in the heritage of CU.

Flanagan shared stories from her time at CU where she, or another faculty or staff members, helped a student in some way. Flanagan told 12 stories during the service. She said, “They are about Campbellsville University and college students and about how these people got to be here and what some of them are doing today.”

One story talked about a man who worked a minimum wage job in another country but knew he could do better. He came to CU, disowned by his family and without financial or emotional support. He was able to complete his degrees and is practicing medicine. By coming to CU, he was able to receive support and guidance.

Another young man came to CU and met the Lord. He came from a troubled background but decided he wanted to become a Christian. He now says he wants to raise his family in a place like Campbellsville.

When Fruit of the Loom closed in Campbellsville, around 3,500 people lost their jobs. CU was able to put dislocated worker funds into place that were supplied by the state. A two-year degree and computer training were offered to those unemployed workers who wanted it.

A World War II vet came home and was unsuccessful in enrolling in various colleges. Campbellsville Junior College welcomed him, and he not only graduated but went on for advanced degrees. Flanagan said he became a university president and to this day is a strong supporter of the university.

Flanagan told another story of a woman who recently enrolled and was blind. The Baptist Student Union organized a group of people to walk with her to and from her residence hall and class. “She is now a successful teacher,” Flanagan said.

“These stories have helped form our heritage here at Campbellsville University,” Flanagan said. “The stories don’t fully encompass the support our faculty and staff has given through the years,” she said.

“Most of the time this was done in secret and only God knows how much has been given to students over the years.”

Flanagan said the university’s academics, sports and campus are all amazing but what is truly important is the “loving, compassionate and accepting community.”

“It is this heritage that has enabled us to say that CU is truly the place to ‘find your calling.’”

Flanagan served as alumni director and in many other positions. She is married to the Rev. Dan Flanagan, Campbellsville College alumnus and former campus minister.

They have two sons, Will, a veterinarian in Elizabethtown, Ky., and Matt, pastor of discipleship at Parkway Baptist Church in Bardstown, Ky., and four grandchildren.

“CU is and will always be a part of who and what we are, whether we are a student, faculty, staff or alumni. So, embrace your heritage and history as you make your mark,” Ginny Flanagan, (’65), part-time

special assistant to the president, said during her Heritage Day address. (CU Photo by Joshua Williams)

Oscar Vaughn wakes up every morning, goes into work an hour early, fixes his coffee and gets his priorities in order before most students at Campbellsville University have awakened.

He does this every day with the same mind set — “If you respect what you do, it will make what you do easy and more enjoyable.”

Vaughn, 67, serves as a member of the custodial staff at CU and can usually be found in Powell Athletic Center with a smile on his face and a skip in his step. Vaughn began working at CU in 2008 and during the last decade he has been teaching the same lesson to everyone he comes into contact with — “Respect yourself because if you don’t, you won’t respect others.”

Respect is a quality Vaughn takes seriously, and he shows it through how he maintains his building. Darius Clement, assistant men’s basketball coach, said, “When Oscar isn’t here you can always tell. He fills a void. He’s here at 7 a.m. and on game days he mops and hand dries the floors. We appreciate what he does.”

Before every home basketball and volleyball game, you can

find Vaughn in the gym of Powell getting his floor ready. He begins by dust mopping and then uses a chemical and water mixture to clean it. Vaughn uses his drag mop and snakes around the entire floor to ensure it all gets clean. “I take pride in it,” Vaughn said. When game days roll around, he said the athletes know to stay out of the gym because he’s preparing the floor for his Tigers.

Along with keeping his floor in top-notch shape, Vaughn also maintains the bleachers, locker rooms, training rooms, classrooms and offices within Powell. When it comes to the locker rooms, Vaughn said he has a system worked out between himself and the student athletes. The teams do their part in making sure all their equipment, jerseys and other items are off of the floor because “if it’s not, it belongs to me and my trash can.” Vaughn said the system works and it allows him to stay on schedule throughout the day.

Bob Stotts, director of custodial services, said, “I think he loves people, and he likes doing a

good job.” Stotts said Vaughn loves interaction with the players, coaches and students.

When a new recruit comes through with a coach and their parents, Vaughn said he always tries to make them feel welcome. “I think the coaches enjoy it.”

The typical work day for Vaughn is from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. On game days you can find him in Powell making sure everything runs smoothly. There are times when Vaughn

Oscar Vaughn concentrates as he mops the center of the basketball court.

will branch out from his typical location and cover other buildings when someone isn’t at work. It isn’t uncommon to find him in Hawkins Athletic Center, Gosser Gym or the wrestling building.

In 2013, Vaughn found himself in a situation where he was restricted to how much he could work and receive pay. Instead of accepting the situation and going home, Vaughn began volunteering.

“I did it because I respect what I do,” Vaughn said. He would come in and work games or other events without giving a second thought to not receiving any pay. This continued until January 2017 when Vaughn was finally granted permission to work and receive other government benefits.

“Oscar brings so much to the athletics department on a daily basis; from cleaning the building and making sure our student athletes have a top-notch facility, to bringing in a bright smile each and every day. He goes above and beyond with his janitorial duties by interacting with our student athletes, coaches and staff throughout Powell Athletic Center,” Jordan Alves, sports information director, said.

Along with maintaining the athletic facility, Vaughn is also known for having a green thumb. The plants located in Powell lobby all came to Vaughn when they were on their last leg. He takes them in and brings them back to life. He said he grew up watching his mother work with plants, and it’s something he picked up from her.

Vaughn is the recipient of two awards from the university, one of them

being the Servant Leadership Award in 2014-15 and another is the recent President’s Senior Service Award.

Before coming to CU, Vaughn lived in various places and held many different jobs. He was the head custodian in the Batavia School District in Batavia, Ill., for 15 years and served as union president for the school district for eight years. He graduated high school in Omaha, Neb., in 1968, where he also worked for the Pepsi Cola bottling company, and immediately enlisted with the Air Force. He was stationed in Japan for a time before coming home in 1971.

Vaughn’s step-father, the late Thaddeus M. Sweatte, was a military man, and Vaughn spent a lot of his teenage life in other countries. He lived in Germany and Europe and from 1963 to 1966 he attended school in Germany. Vaughn said he can remember playing football in West Berlin and seeing the Berlin Wall.

After everything he’s experienced in his life, Vaughn is still living and loving what he does. At the age of 67, Vaughn said, “As long as I can put a smirk on my face then I’ll be here.”

Vaughn is the son of the late Edna Mae Vaughn and has two children, Ashley of Indianapolis, Ind., and Nate of Minneapolis, Minn.

Fieldhouse expected to be open by beginning of summer 2019

BY ARIEL C. EMBERTON, STUDENT NEWS WRITER

features | news | athletics | updates

Campbellsville University’s students, faculty, coaches and staff have two major additions to look forward to in the coming months.

In February 2017, CU’s H&W Sport Shop Ronnie Hord Fieldhouse caught fire and a few athletic teams have been making do without a facility for more than a year.

In January 2018, a crew began construction on a new facility to replace the former building.

The layout of the building will allow for the football team to enter and exit the field quickly for both games and practice, due to the lower level entrance being on the side next to the football field.

The Fighting Tiger football team, as well as the Tiger and Lady Tiger soccer teams, will be housed in the bottom portion of the field house.

“They can personalize it and call it home,” Otto Tennant, vice president for finance and administration, said.

The upper level entrance will face Underwood Street.

Offices, training rooms and extra space will be located upstairs. The additional space will be used for conference purposes, to watch game film and any other needs the athletic department might have.

For the first time in months, the teams will have a place they can be

together and have access to their own facilities.

Tennant also said the building will add to CU’s recruiting process in the coming years.

To be known as the Athletic Fieldhouse, the facility will be approximately 20,000 square feet, whereas the previous

fieldhouse was only 4,000 square feet, Tennant said.

As of the first week of September, the construction crew began placing cement blocks for the walls.

It is expected that the building will be finished by February 2019, weather permitting.

While football and soccer players await the opening of the fieldhouse, other CU students, coaches, faculty and staff also have something to look forward to in the coming months.

The Betty Dobbins Heilman Wellness Center is also being added to the campus.

Ground was broken for the Wellness Center on April 24 and construction began shortly thereafter.

The facility is located on the edge of campus with Meader Street, North Hoskins Avenue and North Columbia Avenue bordering it on three sides.

Similar to the fieldhouse, the wellness center will also be structured with two levels.

The upper level, accessible from North Hoskins Avenue, will include exercise equipment, a lounge area and snack bar.

According to Tennant, “Top-of-the line equipment” is being placed in the wellness center and has already been purchased. It is in use at N2 Fitness and will remain at that location until the wellness center is finished.

In addition to the equipment, the upper level will also have a walking track that will circle the basketball court located on the lower level.

When a student, coach, faculty or staff member is using the walking track, they will be able to look down into the lower level and see the basketball court.

The lower level, accessible from North Columbia Avenue, will contain a basketball court and exercise rooms.

The basketball court will be set up to where a barrier can be placed in the middle to create two separate spaces.

The exercise rooms will be available for various purposes as they are needed. A few shower stalls will be available in the restrooms for those who wish to shower after working out.

The center will not be open 24 hours a day, but it is expected to be open later than other buildings on campus.

The facility will be open to CU students, coaches, faculty and staff only.

At this time, the plan is for someone to be at a front desk checking IDs to ensure safety and monitor usage.

During the summer, there will be a possibility of allowing summer camps, taking place on campus, to use the facility for a variety of activities.

There is also a possibility of intramural sports using the center as well.

Tennant said the facility “will be an attractive building. We try to

keep a consistent look and make everything versatile.”

Due to the building’s placement being in a neutral part of campus, Tennant is looking forward to students using the center as well as the addition it will bring to the campus.

Bradley Crawford, a sophomore of Brownville, Ky., said, “The wellness center will be a great addition to campus, especially for students who don’t have cars but are still interested in using the university’s facilities and maintaining health and wellness.”

The facility is dedicated to Betty Dobbins Heilman, the late wife of Dr. E. Bruce Heilman, Campbellsville Junior College 1949 alumnus and Campbellsville University Board of Trustees member as well as chancellor at the University of Richmond.

The more than 20,000 square foot wellness center is expected to be open by the beginning of the 2019 fall semester, weather permitting.

Campbellsville University graduates first August class; 1,286 for academic year

BY JOAN C. MCKINNEY, DIRECTOR OF UNIVERSITY COMMUNICATIONS

Campbellsville University made history Aug. 17 with her first August commencement and the first one with the majority of students graduating online and from off-campus centers.

Dr. Michael V. Carter, president of Campbellsville University, and Dr. Donna Hedgepath, provost and vice president for academic affairs, conferred degrees and presented the graduates, respectively, to 273 students in Ransdell Chapel.

Carter encouraged the graduates to be responsible for good and positive change as they join about 15,000 Campbellsville University alumni.

“Today,” Carter said, “we will enroll slightly more than 10,000 students,

a record number on the main campus and at our five regional centers and extended sites. We want our graduates to make positive social change through Christian leadership and a mission of service.”

Carter charged the graduates to make a difference in their sphere of influence. “In our hearts we all want to make a difference, and you are one step closer by mastering your discipline.

Reach across the barriers and have the heart of Jesus Christ. We are very proud of you,” he told the graduates.

He spoke of the three components of the university’s seal – leadership, fellowship and scholarship.

“A leader takes others to levels of attainment they never thought possible,” he said. He told the graduates to encourage others to be scholars and to learn to live life in fellowship that is needed like never before.”

Deborah Thomas, assistant director of the Louisville Education Center, received her master of theology degree and said the graduate students have received a hunger to know more about their discipline and will continue learning.

She said the graduates will impact others with their sphere of influence and will continue to apply the seal of Campbellsville University to their hearts to walk in the fellowship of life.

“We will apply the truth and allow our influence in the support of others and perform to a higher level and be able to find solutions in our complex world,” she said.

Darryl Peavler, director of alumni relations, who is a two-time graduate of Campbellsville University, acknowledged the graduates and their accomplishments and said

Campbellsville University is now a more diverse family.

He urged them to take time to enjoy the moment and thank those who have supported them, share the Campbellsville University experience and to stay connected with their alma mater with their prayers, thoughts and giving in order to keep Christian higher education affordable to see the dreams and wishes of the next generation come true.

Chris Allen was selected for the George W. and Myrtle Howell Endowed Scholarship. This scholarship is for students in the theology program. There is an application process and the student sends a letter to the Howells, and then a student is selected for the scholarship. Allen is working on his Master’s in

Theology. He is a part-time student at CU. Allen said, “Scholarships are extremely important to his education.” He said knowing the financial burden is lighter is relieving. His wife just had a baby and

this scholarship gives him more freedom to spend time at home with them instead of having to work all of the time to pay for school. He said thank you to his donors for giving because they are helping students like himself get an education.

Mikayla Runner is the recipient of the Shanae Netherland Thompson Swimming Scholarship. She is a junior on Campbellsville University’s women’s swim team. This scholarship was created by Mr. and Mrs. Bobby

Thompson. Mrs. Thompson was a swimmer at CU and was passionate for other students and wanted to help make it possible for other swimmers to receive an education. To be eligible for this scholarship

the student must be a second-year swimmer on the men’s or women’s team. The swim coaches decide who gets the scholarship. The Thompsons have a football scholarship as well, called the Fighting Tiger Football Scholarship, for football players.

Andrew Coy is the recipient of the Hardin-LaRue County Alumni Chapter scholarship. This scholarship is specifically awarded to students from Hardin or LaRue County. The Hardin-LaRue Alumni Chapter created this scholarship in 2009 to encourage students from these counties to come to Campbellsville University. This scholarship is awarded based on financial need, and in the next year this scholarship will be awarded to two students.

Andrew is a junior and plans to graduate in spring 2020 with a major in elementary education. He believes scholarships are extremely important. “Every bit of money helps when you are going to school,” he said. He is thankful to the donors for giving because they are investing in the future generations like himself.

Bernard Crayton is the recipient of the H.E. Coker Scholarship. This scholarship is awarded to Christian ministers who need the help. Dr. and Mrs. H.E. Coker both graduated from CU. Mrs. Coker graduated from Campbellsville College in 1970, and Dr. Coker was a minister and a professor at the university. Together they wanted to help Christian ministers continue their education, so they created the Coker scholarship.

Bernard Crayton said thank you to the donors for making this scholarship available for ministers like himself. He was an undergraduate at CU and is returning for his master’s degree. He said this scholarship is a blessing to him, and he prays for the donors for making it possible for an older student to go back to school for ministry. Crayton has a

year left until he receives his master’s degree.

Cody Jones is the recipient of the Harlie White Math Scholarship. He is a math education major. He was selected for this scholarship based off his major and need.

Jones is grateful for this scholarship because it helps take a burden off his plate. He was recently married and plans to work with his wife doing international mission work. Jones said this scholarship helps him not have to work 40 hours a week to pay for school, so he can be more involved on campus and with his wife.

country team, tennis and others.

T’Ziah Conley is a first-year graduate student. He is majoring in sport management and is a football player at CU. Conley said this scholarship is “a huge blessing,” and it helps to not have to use as many student loans. He is an out-of-state student, so he is grateful for any other help he can receive in paying for college. Conley thinks all students should be able to receive scholarships, and he

appreciates his donors for creating this scholarship to help him further his education.

“Homecoming 2018 was wonderful,” Peavler said. “It was a great weekend as many alumni returned home to reconnect, reminisce and reunite with classmates, teammates and their alma mater. Even though the weather felt like July, the atmosphere was live with the feel of Homecoming.”

“Everyone mark your calendars now,” Peavler said, “Homecoming 2019 will be Oct. 19 as the Fighting Tigers prepare to take on University of Pikeville!”

Lawsons honored as Distinguished Alumni at Homecoming

BY JOAN C. MCKINNEY, EDITOR

When his name was announced, Dr. Paul Lawson bent his head and held it in his hands for a long time. He was overwhelmed.

Lawson ('55) and his wife, Shirley Strader Lawson ('54), who have dedicated their lives to the ministry, were named Campbellsville University’s Distinguished Alumni at Homecoming.

Lawson has served in the ministry 31 years with his wife as his helpmate in music ministry in piano and organ. Lawson also served his country as a United States Marine.

Presenting the award, Darryl Peavler, director of alumni relations, said, “Paul and Shirley exemplify the qualities and morals that Campbellsville University represents. It is a great honor to be a member of the CU alumni family beside individuals like Paul and Shirley.”

The Lawsons, now residents of Virginia Beach, Va., have been married 61 years. They met at Campbellsville Junior College in 1953, where both were active in Baptist Student Union, ultimately becoming prayer partners. They were described as a “dynamic” ministry team.

“Have you ever heard of a preacher being speechless?”, Lawson said upon receiving the Distinguished Alumnus honor. He said he was drawn to the school by the late Rev. Ferrell Gardner and credits it with changing his life. Later, both men became CU trustees.

Lawson said, “God has a plan, and God will show you that plan. The only way to find peace in life is to do what God wants.”

Lawson endowed a CU church music scholarship in his wife’s honor as he wanted to honor her while she was

living. He said they enjoy the blessing of giving to students.

Mrs. Lawson acknowledged President Michael V. Carter's leadership of her alma mater, saying he "loves the Lord and leads the university in a spiritual way.”

A legend of theater, Russ Mobley, dies at 84

BY JOAN C. MCKINNEY, EDITOR

On Sept. 11, 2003 Greg Mobley wrote of his dad: “professor, sportscaster, legislator, chess master, choir director, leading man, carpenter and tree planter.”

On Oct. 29, 2018 Greg Mobley wrote his father’s obituary, remembering him as “gifted in the arts, athletics, public service and church life, tall and handsome, possessed of a commanding voice and physical presence, yet kind and generous, he naturally assumed the role of ‘leading man’ in the eyes of his family and many others.”

Russ Mobley, a professor and director of the Campbellsville University theater program from 1971 until his 2005 retirement, left a legacy at the theater bearing his name. He was a mentor to students, director of more than 100 plays, and the “Voice of the Tigers." He was also a state representative for the 51st District, which includes Taylor and Adair counties.

In recognition of his contributions, CU awarded him an honorary Doctor of Humane Lettersin 2015.

Mobley, 84, died Oct. 26 of complications from Parkinson’s disease at the Willows at Hamburg in Lexington.

Rob Collins, a community member, recalls being a 16-year-old member of a group that went to New York with Mobley to see Broadway plays. The experience was “one of the biggest highlights of my life” and began Collins’ love of performing.

Mobley also had a “huge impact” on Jan and T.K. Sapp. Sapp said, “He became a dear friend and mentor to Jan when she got involved in community theater at CU. Russ was a great encourager.”

To Dr. Frank Cheatham, Mobley was a friend and fellow professor.

“He spent many hours outside the classroom working with students; directing many plays; participating in onstage productions; and serving as faculty athletic representative. He was a strong advocate representing student and faculty concerns to the administration. It was his determination that resulted in a two-day fall break at CU. Many students came to believe they could be successful from spending time with Russ and participating in theater productions.”

Dr. Michael V. Carter, CU president, said, “Russ Mobley was a remarkably talented and gifted faculty member. His teaching and his leadership of our

theater arts program was admired across the Commonwealth and beyond. We will greatly miss him.”

Tiger baseball gives back to local Kid SpOt organization

and proves it ’s More Than A GameBY BRETT PIERCE, CAMPBELLSVILLE UNIVERSITY ATHLETICS

HIG Field was filled with a group of champions on Oct. 8, and this time it wasn’t the Tiger baseball team who were the champions.

Head coach Beauford Sanders and Tiger baseball hosted the Kid SpOt Center kids to a night of fun on the diamond. Sanders’ crew invited 25 children to come out with their families to have a baseball game that included being with the current Tiger baseball team.

Children and their parents began to show up at sunset and the night began with a warm up session with the players in left field. Players threw ground balls to the children as well as hit a couple balls towards them to get ready for the game.

The game format for the night was that each player from each team got the chance to hit and round the bases and touch home plate.

“It means an opportunity to be able to give back to a community that fully embraces the university. We were going to go over and have a practice session

with the kids at their field,” Sanders said about the evening. “We decided it would be a better experience for the kids as well as the parents to be able to see their kids on a bigger baseball field than what they are used to. Turn the lights on and really make these kids feel like they are the stars of the night.”

As the night ended, the team and children started to sing “Take me out to the ball game” and had a medal presentation for everyone who participated in the night.

For the children, the game was more than a game for them. It will be something that the children and parents will remember for a long time. The players on the other hand, they had more fun than the children that they hosted. From running around the bases, to dancing, to teaching the children how to properly play the game that they have come to know and love, the Tigers proved that at Campbellsville University, it’s More Than a Game.

If someone compiled a list of ten things that make for an effective assistant basketball coach, Ginger Colvin thinks she could check off 12 of them for Miranda Denney.

In marriage it has been said, “Behind every successful man, there is a strong, wise and hardworking woman. Insert “successful head coach” and the same could be true for Lady Tiger Basketball.

“There are assistant coaches and then there is Miranda Denney. There are a lot of dedicated assistant coaches across the country,” offered Colvin, Campbellsville women’s head basketball coach. “I will argue at length with any coach who thinks they have anyone any better.”

Better known as “Hootie” to Lady Tiger Nation, Denney has been with Colvin for her 11 seasons as head coach, undertaking a job description that qualifies her — in addition to curator of Xs and Os — as a tutor, travel agent, counselor, ship captain and short-order cook.

Denney’s path to the assistant’s job took a circuitous route. She knew in high school that she eventually wanted to be a coach. When she was nominated for homecoming queen at Somerset High School (SHS) in 2001, she jotted down a script about her aspirations for the future. That’s when a gym full of Briar Jumpers would hear she wanted to eventually be head coach of her old high school team.

It’s just fitting that she was inducted into the Somerset High School Hall of Fame on Oct. 14.

Denney first caught Colvin’s eye when she was playing in the KHSAA All “A” Classic against Colvin’s then high school team — Campbellsville. After Denney dropped 20 points on the Lady Eagles and eliminated them from the tourney, Colvin raced off to a pay phone to contact then Lady Tiger Coach Donna Wise to initiate the recruiting process that eventually landed Denney at Campbellsville University.

Hootie was named to the 12th Region All-A Tournament team all four years at Somerset, and the All-A State Tournament team three of those four. Other all-tournament team accolades included the 48th District and 12th Region her sophomore, junior and senior seasons.

The Lady Jumpers were three-time district champions during Hootie’s SHS career. She was named Honorable Mention All-State her sophomore and junior years, 3rd Team All State her senior year, and was a member of the Kentucky All-Star team prior to her junior season.

'Hootie' is the gluethat holds Lady Tiger Basketball together

56 CAMPBELLSVILLIAN

When at CU, Denney gained distinction on and off the court — hauling in degrees in mathematics and secondary education. Oh, and by the way, she was also valedictorian of her graduating class. She was a two-time NAIA and Mid-South Conference Scholar Athlete with a free throw accuracy of 88 percent.

Denney was teaching high school math at Somerset when she heard of Wise’s intention to retire. But landing a coaching job at CU was harder than she thought. When she learned that Colvin would be taking over the program, she called her every day for about four months.

“I guess I finally broke her down,” Denney said smiling. “I knew when she got the job, she’d be someone I’d really like working with.”

“Hootie is overqualified for her job,” continued Colvin. “She is efficient. Her organization, preparation and dedication are incredible. She is the ultimate assistant.”

It was a match made in basketball heaven, because the new coach and the new assistant were eaten up with basketball, all that the sport embraces and the Lady Tiger legacy.

“We felt the connection right off the bat,” said Denney.

Denney says she felt relatively prepared for the on-the-court aspects of the job because she watched and learned how her old coach ran her program and she and Colvin had both survived their Lady Tiger playing careers under Wise.

“The on-the-floor stuff I think I was prepared for,” said Denney. “As a player you see the practices and the games, but all the other stuff — the game plans, the scouting reports, eating at the right time — kind of set me back at first.

“Coach Wise was so competitive. She wanted the best out of you no matter what you were doing and we’ve continued to try and command that standard today.”

Denney admits she gets warm and fuzzy when she knows she has made a difference in one of her player’s lives.

The achievements of the program can’t be measured simply in wins and losses, but the success certainly constitutes itself in numbers and the raw math of a 302-79 record to date pretty much says it all. And with success comes added pressure to continue that kind of tradition, according to Denney.

“If you weren’t feeling it (the pressure), then you wouldn’t have been to those places (like the national tournament) and done what you did. There are lots of teams that would like to trade places with us.

Breaking down teams and their tendencies is one of the most important and rewarding things about my job,” admitted Denney. “We’re not crazy athletic so we have to outthink our opponents. Preparation is important because it dictates our performance.”

“She would be a great head coach for any program and I am sure she knows that,” continued Colvin. “Her love and commitment to Campbellsville University and our athletes is unmatched. We are all so blessed. She isn’t looking to ‘make it big’ somewhere else. She is looking to make where she is big. She is doing just that. No one works harder, cares more or does a better job.

“Hootie is the glue that holds our program together. I am so thankful to her and her love for this program.”

Alumni Greetingsfrom Darryl Peavler (BS ’03, MBA ’05), Director of Alumni Relations

COMPILED AND WRITTEN BY JOAN C. MCKINNEY, EDITOR, AND AMBER MEADE (’18), ASSISTANT EDITOREditor’s Note: Years of graduation or attendance at Campbellsville College or Campbellsville University are determined by the last year of attendance. For example, (’65) is a 1965 bachelor’s graduate; (A ’65) is a 1965 associate degree graduate; (a ’65) is for someone who attended his or her last year in 1965; and (’65, M ’69) is someone who graduated with a bachelor’s degree in 1965 and a master’s degree in 1969.

It is difficult to imagine that 2018 is drawing to a close. So much has happened at CU this year,

including record enrollment of more than 13,000 students, expansion of regional centers, numerous athletic championships, mission trips around the world and hundreds of decisions for Christ.

While there are bigger and better things brewing every day, I’m glad to say CU still has the same mission: to help students “Find Their Calling!”

How many of you found your calling at Campbellsville University, Campbellsville College or Campbellsville Junior College? It is safe to say that we each have been impacted greatly by the love and support we were given at CU.

Through the years, many great faculty and staff members have given their all to ensure students the best experience possible. People like Donna Wise and the late Dr. Bill Bennett, Dr. Paul Horner, Lou Cunningham, Ron Finley, Don Bishop and others have made CU what it is today.

As students, we also shaped this great institution. As alumni, we have an even greater opportunity to do so. The alumni giving percentage is a critical data point when looking at the health of any college or university. The higher the number, the better. Giving any amount every year will ripple through generations of future Tigers. So much was poured into us during our time as students, let’s do the same for the current students and future members of our alumni family.

During this special time of year, I pray that your days are filled with family and friends. Merry Christmas to you and yours from Campbellsville University!

Forever Maroon and Gray,

Director of Alumni Relations

Support the Scholarship Fund With a CU License Plate

CU alumni and friends residing in the Commonwealth of Kentucky have the opportunity to show their CU pride and support the Scholarship Fund through the purchase of a Campbellsville University License Plate from their local County Clerk’s Office during the annual renewal or initial registration of their motor vehicle.

Ten dollars of the registration or renewal fee goes to support the Campbellsville University Scholarship Fund.

The Association of Independent Kentucky Colleges and Universities hosts the “Battle of the Bumpers” contest each year. It’s a friendly contest between AIKCU’s 18 members to see which institution’s supporters can put the most college-branded license plates on Kentucky highways in a calendar year.

Darryl Peavler, director of alumni relations, said, “Purchasing the Campbellsville University license plate is a great way to show your support for your alma mater. And the best thing about it is that $10 of the registration or renewal fee goes to support the Scholarship Fund. You can support your alma mater in two ways. Won’t you join us in supporting your alma mater?”

Maddox, Board of Trustee member, dies at 86BY GRACYNE HASH, INTERN NEWS WRITER

Dr. J. Cordell Maddox of Jefferson City, Tenn., a member of Campbellsville University’s Board of Trustees from 2006

until 2015, died July 22, 2018. He was 86.

Dr. Michael V. Carter, president of Campbellsville University, first worked with Maddox at Carson-Newman University and called him a “very close and trusted colleague and friend.”

“Dr. Maddox was insightful, careful, thoughtful and discerning as a model leader in Christian higher education,” Carter said.

“His service to Campbellsville University resulted in helping to build two of our new buildings, and he opened doors in new directions for our university. His ability to be analytical and yet empathetic was remarkable. He helped thousands of students over the course of his distinguished career. We will miss him greatly.”

Maddox attended Furman University on an athletic scholarship after high school and chose to study religion and English to prepare for ministry. He went on to a long career of Christian service.

Throughout college he lettered in three sports, football, tennis and baseball. In

1986, he was inducted into the Furman University Athletic Hall of Fame, where he is affectionately remembered as “Iron Man Maddox” because he was involved in many college sports.

After receiving his master’s degree from The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Maddox served as South Carolina director for the Royal Ambassadors, vice president for development at Furman University and president of Anderson College.

In 1977, Maddox became the president of Carson-Newman University and served the institution 22 years.

Throughout his life and ministry, he received numerous honorary degrees and awards for his work in Christian higher education and touched many lives through his college leadership.

Maddox was preceded in death by his wife, Brona Maddox. He is survived by his four children: Cordell Maddox Jr. (Donna), Mike Maddox (Julie), Brian Maddox (Ericka) and Gayle Maddox Beaudet (Bob), and his 13 grandchildren, and two great-grandchildren (Ian, Jess, Whit, Chris, Brett, Caitlin, Matt, Hunter, Steven, Will, Garland, Alec, Molly, Jackson and Henry).

Donations may be made to the Maddox Scholarship at Carson-Newman University or to First Baptist Church, Jefferson City, Tenn.

He leaves to continue his legacy four daughters: Johnnette (Malcolm) Richmond-Fox; Della Willis, Angela (William) Clark-Milan and Tiffany Mason; two sons, Cedric Clark and Kenyon Milton and many relatives and friends.
