We continue to be one of the most diverse universities in the country. It is important to note that average SAT scores and grade point averages are both up dramatically the past several years. Our retention and graduation rates have been on the upswing, and given the many a message from Board chair Ken Bernhardt As Georgia State University gets ready to begin its 100th birthday, I have been reflecting on the incredible changes that have taken place during my many years on the faculty of the J.

Some just need a little help.” “What I value the most is honesty, integrity and looking out for the best interests of other people.” Today, she is helping remove financial obstacles for students similar to herself. The Phyllis L. Parker Scholarship will support a first-generation student in the J. Mack Robinson College of Business who has at least one parent from another country. Students like that “are at a whole different level with navigating college and the business world,” said Parker, whose husband, R. Keith Cox (B.B.A., 1993) attended night classes at GSU with her and was also a first-generation student. “I hope that this scholarship can be an essential tool for students to grow, learn and strive.

Their support is the equivalent of applause turned into dollars, highlighting offered to each student — is second to none, and the resulting excellence in performance and community impact by our students and faculty is laudable,” said school director W. Dwight Coleman. “As we strategize to continue and expand the quality of instruction and programs in the School of Music, the significance of their gift cannot be underestimated.” Aileen and Chris Valianos said that their gift represents how “we have been inspired by the enthusiasm of the faculty, students and the practice and commitment that goes into the education of a musician. Not only are we gifting back to GSU, but we are also demonstrating our appreciation to the School of Music for all the productions we have enjoyed.” a chorus of GSU experiences that had enriched their lives. “We are also demonstrating our appreciation to the School of Music for all the productions we have enjoyed.” 7 Beth and Mike Kenny: bridging generations Family issues brought Beth Kenny to GSU, and now she “Her parents were able to see her graduate summa cum laude,” recalled her husband, Mike Kenny, and her husband, Mike, invest in today’s students.

The new Kenny funding will allow students who are most in need to “I only hope that some day I am in a position where I am able to provide funding to GSU universitywide scholarships and make a difference in a student’s life in the same way the Kennys have made a difference in mine,” said Caitlin Myers, one of the first Kenny Scholars, who expects to graduate in 2014 with a degree in social work. “I would like to make a difference in my community and one’s own life with meaning.” would be satisfied with any career where I am able to make a positive impact in somebody’s life.” Among her fellow students at GSU, Kenny found diverse Finances — not grades or academic issues — are what most determine whether a GSU student motivations and backgrounds. She was particularly impressed how so many juggled jobs, children and classes. Many were first in their families to attend college. Her mindset of helping began to stretch to her classmates’ pursuit of education. What could she do? That question would linger well after her emotional graduation in 1999, attended by three generations of her family. 8 To help address the greatest financial need of current students, the Kennys made a $500,000 gift for remains enrolled and on track. Their stories today echo those that Kenny saw unfold among her classmates. “I marveled at their stories because they were so committed to getting their degrees,” she said. “Funding a scholarship had always been in the back of my mind, and now I’m in the position where I can give back.” “I marveled at [my classmates’] stories because they were so committed to getting their degrees… now I’m in the position where I can give back.” Suzan and Steven Zoukis: Paying forward the generosity of a stranger Everything changed for Suzan M.

How could the couple pay him back? the university,” said Arts and Sciences Dean William J. Long. “It’s a gift. Just pass it on,” their benefactor said. “We didn’t come from a background of philanthropy, or ever have money for extras for giving, and we never dreamed we would be in “If you have the brains and will to get an education, how much money you have shouldn’t detain or hold you back,” Suzan Zoukis said, with conviction borne of receiving that help when it was needed most. the position we are financially today to give back,” said Suzan Zoukis (B.A., ‘84), who supported her husband’s success in law and real estate. “That gift was something that changed everything for us. And now we are doing things that can be game changing for others.” Her recent $1 million bequest will fund unrestricted university-wide scholarships at Georgia State University’s College of Arts and Sciences, where Suzan Zoukis’ sociology degree profoundly impacted her daily life. “Read any front page and opinion page of a newspaper, and you will cover what a sociologist would address,” she said. “That’s what I think about all the time.” 10 “That gift was something that changed everything for us. And now we are doing things that can be game changing for others.” “The Zoukis Endowment is helping Georgia State scholars answer important questions about the effectiveness of mandatory minimums in reducing crime and recidivism rates. The Zoukis’ gift is absolutely vital to our faculty and graduate student researchers.” – Bill Downs, GSU Professor of Political Science (pictured left to right with fellow researchers Lesley Reid, Mike Fix and Mike Evans) The Goizueta Foundation: strengthening Latino leadership “There are many baby steps to being a leader, and all it takes is the right person to Georgia State is uniquely poised to ensure this program’s help others on their paths. If I can help at least one other person to make their success. Latinos represent the fastest growing student life better in some form or fashion, then that will help me to be successful as well.” the Coca-Cola foundation: developing a new generation of leadership Studies have shown that first-generation college students are more likely to succeed when supported by specialized resources.To this end,The Coca-Cola Foundation has committed $1.3 million to GSU to establish two scholarship programs and a selection of student success initiatives.The award supports Coca-Cola First Generation Scholarships, the Coca-Cola Global Ambassadors Scholarship program for first generation students, the Coca-Cola Scholars First Generation Freshmen Learning Community Program and the Keep Hope Alive program.The Coca-Cola Global Ambassador Scholarship Program in the J.

Chrystal Ferreira wrote that in her successful application for Georgia State University’s new Latino Leadership Pipeline Scholarship, funded through a $4.998 million gift from The Goizueta Foundation. Her words also summed up the aim of the entire program, which is to prepare a generation to lead the next generation in a chain of academic success. The funding will reach 100 promising Latino high school students with $10,000 annual scholarships, academic support and internships designed to launch them as successful business leaders. These recipients will give back through service learning and mentoring the next generation of leaders. “As Latinos, we must encourage one another to strive for academic excellence while still in grade school and to seek higher education in college,” said Adrian Gonzalez, another scholarship recipient. “An education provides endless possibilities. More Latinos with an education will result in more influential and successful Latino leaders within society.” population in U.S. colleges, according to the Education Trust. In Georgia, GSU leads all universities in Latino student enrollment. The graduation rates for GSU’s Latino students have improved dramatically from 38 percent in 2000 to 59 percent in 2010. The $4.998 million follows gifts of more than $2.5 million that helped with successful pilots of each Latino Leadership Pipeline program. “Leaders use anything in their power to improve the lives of others, especially through education,” pointed out Melissa Ramirez, another Latino Leadership Scholar. “As a Latina, I proudly embrace my heritage and believe in our potential.” “More Latinos with an education will result in more influential and successful Latinos within society.” 13 financial highlights georgia state university foundation New Endowments fiscal year 2012 With gratitude, Georgia State relies on the invaluable support provided by the following new endowments: Anne Deeley Easterly Endowment Anne Deeley Easterly and Michael D.

To have the opportunity for their names to be deleted from mailing lists that an organization may intend to share. • To be assured their gifts will be used for the purposes for which they were given. • To feel free to ask questions when making a donation and to receive prompt, truthful and forthright answers. • To receive appropriate acknowledgement and recognition. • To be assured that information about their donations is handled with respect and with confidentiality to the extent provided by law. * Deceased 30 31 G e o rgia S tate U n i v e r sit y F o u n dati o n P.
