In 1900 when the university was first established, an initial investment was made. The leaders 

who established Southwestern Louisiana Industrial Institute may not have known exactly what 

kind of impact that investment would have, but they did envision what they hoped the university 

would become. Today, nearly 17,000 students attend UL Lafayette and the university is in a position 

for tremendous growth. A growth that would not be possible without the generosity of our donors. 

Our donors recognize the importance of investing in higher education. An investment to UL Lafayette 

involves much more than a dollar figure. It is an investment in the students who attend the university 

today and in the future. It’s an investment in the faculty, to ensure top tier educators and researchers 

come to Lafayette and stay. It’s an investment in athletics and the coaches who will take our teams 

to the next level. 

No matter what the investment is, it has an impact. Whether the degree of the impact is small or 

large, it has a far reaching effect. An effect that allows us to envision a university with thousands 

of new students, professors recognized for their breakthrough research and an athletic program 

with national rankings and conference titles. 

110 years ago, there were only 100 students and eight faculty on campus. It is amazing to see the 

impact an investment can have.

PRESIDENT - UNIVERSITY OF LOUISIANA LAFAYETTE 

Dr. E. Joseph Savoie 

President - University of Louisiana Lafayette 

The University of Louisiana Lafayette has embarked on an aggressive 

$148 million construction initiative that will reenergize a section 

of campus over the next few years. Student residences will be built 

and existing dormitories will be renovated. A parking garage will be 

constructed and the Student Union will be renovated and expanded to 

better suit students’ needs. 

A project of this magnitude may seem like a bold step, since higher 

education in Louisiana has experienced state budget cuts that have 

totaled about 20 percent in the past two years. It is a bold step. But 

it is needed to enable UL Lafayette to achieve its goals of increasing 

enrollment and improving its graduation rate. 

Along with new campus housing, the university will introduce 

living-learning communities, which will bring together students with 

common interests. For example, freshman who are enrolled in firstyear 

seminar and have some of the same classes may live in the same 

section. Research shows that living-learning communities improve 

student retention rates and academic achievement. 

Most of the existing Student Union will be demolished, with the 

exception of the section that now houses the bookstore, Bayou Bijou 

and ballroom. The new energy efficient facility will incorporate those 

areas and wrap around Cypress Lake. There will be an inviting new 

entrance from McKinley Street and most of the dining and public 

areas will face the lake. 

This substantial construction initiative is possible because it 

is funded through room rental and self-assessed student fees through 

Ragin’ Cajun Facilities Inc., a separately incorporated nonprofit 

organization established to assist the university with its building 

plans. That means that donors’ contributions are as crucial as ever 

for UL Lafayette’s continued advancement. 

With this Report on Philanthropy, we express our gratitude to all 

alumni and friends who entrusted their gifts to UL Lafayette in the 

past year. 

that values higher education and is willing to express 

its appreciation in a tangible way. 

UL Lafayette could not have reached its status as a significant 

research institution, and the second-largest university in Louisiana, 

without the help of donors, such as the ones whose names are 

listed in this Report on Philanthropy. 

We are grateful for all gifts and will continue to use them wisely. 

BARRY BERTHELOT 

PRESIDENT - UL LAFAYETTE FOUNDATION 

This ever changing world continues to bring new challenges to each 

of us individually as well as the institutions which we serve. We have 

seen a continuation of a weakened local and national economy which 

has impacted funding to the University from all sources. Throughout 

this time period, we remain viable and strong. Our strength comes 

from the generosity of our donors, alumni and volunteers. 

Our donors truly transcend the current challenges and once again 

have demonstrated that they value UL Lafayette through their active 

support. We honored nine new contributors of $50,000 or more at 

this year’s successful Distinguished Donors event. This brings the 

number of plaques in the Hall of Honor at Martin Hall to 299 and 

builds the Foundation’s endowments to a value of over $103 million 

and a total asset value of $119.5 million. 

Each year we ask the Trustees of the UL Lafayette Foundation to 

serve as leaders to affect positive change for the benefit of the 

organization. These volunteers have dedicated their time and talent 

in many areas. Most notably, we were able to revamp our asset 

management programs and policies to reflect the demands of today’s 

investing environment. Because of their work, our portfolio has 

recovered significant value and is achieving market returns through 

appropriate investment strategies. I am honored to serve with them 

for the good of our university. 

Barry Berthelot 

President - UL Lafayette Foundation 

All gifts – large or small – support the University of Louisiana 

Lafayette. Collectively, they reflect a generous community

Over the past 50 years, philanthropic support to the University of 

Louisiana Lafayette Foundation has grown considerably. This year 

was no exception. Our donors are dedicated in their generosity to the 

university, even throughout the uncertainty of the U.S. economy. 

We are truly grateful for that commitment. 

We are constantly striving to provide maximum return on our 

investments with minimal risk. And while we’ve had some significant 

market fluctuations, we faired better than other university 

endowments. We are optimistic about our new direction, and I am 

confident this will allow us to be more resilient than ever. 

The Foundation currently manages approximately 1,700 active 

funds, with assets totaling $119.5 million. In 2010, we made 

several changes to our investment strategy including selecting a 

new investment advisory firm. With their guidance, the Foundation 

investment team has implemented new strategies working toward 

a more diversified asset allocation with greater return potential. 

By diversifying our investment portfolio, we are on target for an 

allocation of approximately 55% global equities, 29% global 

fixed income and 16% real assets and diversifying strategies. To 

view complete financial information, please visit our website at 

ullafayettefoundation.org. 

We have also modified how funds for endowed accounts are spent 

each fiscal year. In the past, we have allowed up to 5% of the 

endowment principal to be awarded for a fund. However, in order 

to preserve the fund’s sustainability, we have revised our payout 

percentage to a more reasonable range of 4-4.5%. The amount is 

calculated by analyzing earnings over a three year rolling average. 

Many universities have already incorporated this trend. According to 

the NACUBO-Commonfund Study of Endowments (NCSE) one in four 

universities have adjusted their spending rate. 

The Foundation takes additional steps to increasing the endowment 

principal on all endowed accounts. Each year, as long as funds are 

available, a percentage of earnings is transferred into the principal 

portion of the account. By increasing the amount of the endowment 

principal in the account, over time, this will also increase the amount 

available each year. 

It is my honor and privilege to serve the UL Lafayette Foundation 

and Board of Trustees. I want to personally thank you for your 

continued support and dedication to the University of Louisiana 

Lafayette. Your donation impacts the lives of students and faculty 

today and in the future. 

Sincerely, 

Julie Bolton Falgout, M.B.A. 

Executive Director, UL Lafayette Foundation 


UL LAFAYETTE FOUNDATION & ACADEMICS 


Donors can create a lasting 

legacy through the 

establishment of an endowed or 

non-endowed scholarship 

UL LAFAYETTE ACADEMICS 

LOUISIANA.EDU/ACADEMIC/ | 337.482.0000 

Scholarships can change a student’s life and open doors that may 

have never been available. With the creation of a scholarship, donors 

can ensure that higher education remains available to exceptional 

and deserving students regardless of their financial circumstances. 

Although the university has been able to avoid tuition increases 

for many years, that will change in 2011. Previously, approval from 

Legislature was needed to raise tuition. However, with the passing of 

the GRAD act (Granting Resources and Autonomy for Diplomas), state 

universities now have limited authority to raise tuition in exchange 

for improved performance in key areas, including graduation rates. 

With tuition increasing, giving to and creating scholarships has 

become even more important. 

earnings is added back into the principal for perpetual growth. This 

ensures a donors legacy continues well into the future.” 

Another option is a non-endowed scholarship. Donors who wish to 

make a non-endowed gift for student scholarships may do so on a 

one-time, periodic or annual basis with a gift of $500 or more. These 

funds are fully expendable and available for immediate use. 

Many companies offer matching gift programs to employees, retirees 

and employee spouses. To see if your company takes part, visit with 

your human resources office or call the Foundation at 337.482.0700. 


A student without the financial 

resources may now be able to 

achieve their educational goals 

In early 2010 the university began the silent phase of a scholarship 

campaign. The goal is to raise $4.5 million and create 120 new 

scholarships. This is a first campaign of its kind at the university. 

When Dr. Savoie announced he wanted to increase enrollment at 

the university, the Development Office took action. They wanted to 

establish a scholarship campaign to keep the number of scholarships 

available in line with the increasing number of students on campus. 


The scholarship campaign carries two objectives: to invest in the 

future and transform lives. Scholarship endowments are permanent 

investments in UL students. With a gift of $10,000 or more, a donor 

may select a particular college and/or department they wish to 

dedicate their endowment. Each year, the Foundation makes available 

a portion of the endowment earnings for the purpose the donor 

selected when the endowment fund was established. 

“Funding an endowment allows a donor to make a permanent mark on 

the university,” said Julie Bolton Falgout, Executive Director of the 

Foundation. “We are constantly striving to protect that endowment 

and help it grow. As a result, each year, part of the endowment 

The Foundation currently has over 700 scholarship funds. Some 

carry a small balance while others carry a balance of over $1 million. 

Regardless of size, every individual fund has the capability to make 

a student’s educational dreams come true. We are truly grateful for 

your generosity and support.

Lafayette Office of Development at 482-0922.

UL LAFAYETTE FOUNDATION & RESEARCH 


Providing the resources and

compete with other universities 

for research dollars 


Researchers and professors 

are recognized on an international 

stage for their work

Carnegie Classifications from “High

Research Activity” with over 

$100 million in research dollars 

UL LAFAYETTE RESEARCH 

RESEARCH.LOUISIANA.EDU | 337.482.6541 

On April 20, 2010, the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig exploded in the 

Gulf of Mexico, approximately 50 miles off the Louisiana coastline, 

causing the largest oil spill in U.S. history. As oil began gushing into 

the Gulf, faculty and staff at UL Lafayette were quickly assessing how 

they could help in the recovery and response. 

The state quickly realized they needed access to university 

expertise. They created a 20 person panel entitled ‘Horizon Science 

and Engineering Review Team’ (HSERT) to provide technical input. 

Four researchers from the university including the Dean of the 

College of Engineering Dr. Mark Zappi, Engineering Professors 

Dr. Don Hayes and Dr. Ehab Meselhe and Associate Professor of 

Renewable Resources Dr. Jenneke Visser served on the panel making 

recommendations and sharing knowledge on response, remediation, 

and restoration. 

UL Lafayette’s Vice President for Research, Dr. Robert Twilley led 

the panel of university experts and Dean Zappi worked with the 

cleanup subcommittee. Zappi made recommendations, reviewed work 

plans, offered suggestions on meeting with federal officials and met 

with companies on behalf of the governor’s office. “At UL Lafayette, 

we have been studying the coastline for so long, our expertise 

was so valuable to everyone,” Zappi said. “Our role in the recovery 

and cleanup shows we are key players and that UL Lafayette is a 

top research institution.” 

When Governor Bobby Jindal activated the Louisiana Business 

Emergency Operation Center (BEOC), Ramesh Kolluru and the UL 

Lafayette National Incident Management Systems and Advanced 

Technologies (NIMSAT) Institute got to work. They were tasked with 

presenting ideas on how to cap the well and remediate the coastal 

wetlands. They solicited ideas from the private sector and presented 

the best solutions to the appropriate agencies. “Often the individuals 

in the private sector are the ones directly impacted by the disaster,” 

Dr. Ramesh Kolluru, Executive Director of NIMSAT said. “By allowing 

them to contribute their ideas and solutions, we are helping them 

provide their services to government and as a result, may be helping 

them stay in business.” NIMSAT also is providing statistical analysis 

of the economic impact of the disaster itself and the deepwater 

drilling moratorium. 

The input of these faculty was just a small part of research being 

done by UL Lafayette employees. Researchers at the university 

received three National Science Foundation (NSF) grants to study the 

effects of the oil spill. Dr. Darryl Felder and Dr. Suzanne Fredericq 

received an $185,608 Rapid Response Research (RAPID) grant 

to visit banks and pinnacles where offshore seaweeds and macro 

crustaceans have previously been documented. Dr. Azmy Ackleh, Dr. 

Nabendu Pal and Dr. Natalia Sidorovskaia received a $912,197 RAPID 

grant to assess the immediate impact of the Deepwater Horizon oil 

spill on near by resident populations of endangered whale species. 

In addition, Dr. Bob Grambling of the Sociology Department is 

collaborating as a Co-Principal Investigator on a $57,306 NSF grant 

to study the impact of the media stories on the oil spill by 

completing a content analysis of the media accounting and designing 

and implementing a survey to measure residents’ understanding 

of the event. 

Shortly after the oil spill, BP announced a commitment of up to 

$600 million for the Gulf of Mexico Research Initiative (GRI) to study 

the impact of the Deepwater Horizon incident and its effects on the 

environment; as well as developing new technology in deepwater 

oil exploration. Dr. Twilley along with three other Louisiana university 

Vice Presidents/Vice Chancellors joined to develop an initiative 

named the Gulf Research Institute for a Resilient Louisiana (GRI- 

RL). GRI-RL will compete for the BP dollars to perform research. 

“We are excited about our universities working collaboratively to 

secure funding for research that will yield immediate short-term and 

medium-term solutions for the on-going remediation and recovery 

effort,” Twilley said. “We believe this will position Louisiana on 

a roadmap for strategic and long-term sustainable development. 

Obtaining even just a portion of these research dollars could make 

a huge impact on our university.”

Taking an active interest in current 

students through scholarship 

UL LAFAYETTE ALUMNI 

LOUISIANAALUMNI.ORG | 337.482.0900 

In 1984, the Alumni Association established its first endowed 

scholarship. Today, they have 11 endowed scholarships; one for each 

of the nine colleges, one for a Student Alumni Association member 

and one for a first generation student in honor of Dr. and Mrs. Ray 

Authement. This commitment to philanthropy comes with a desire to 

build a relationship with the students. 

the Washington D.C. area has one of the most active alumni groups 

outside of Lafayette. The group hosts two fundraisers a year with the 

money raised going toward the UL Lafayette Baltimore/Washington 

D.C. Ragin’ Cajun Club Scholarship. The club is currently working on 

raising enough funds to endow their scholarship at the $10,000 level. 

“We want to connect with students while they are still here,” 

said Dan Hare, Executive Director of the Alumni Association. “If 

we connect with them through a scholarship, hopefully they will 

remember that and pay it forward by creating their own scholarship 

after they have graduated and are in a position to do so. We want 

them to become more than just a member of the Alumni Association. 

We want to encourage them to become stewards for the university.” 


Graduates become active stewards 

and give back to the university. 

Now that they have met their initial goal of establishing a scholarship 

for each college on campus, the Alumni Association has taken 

their endowments to the next level. “When we initially created our 

scholarships, they were endowed at the $10,000 level,” Hare said. 

“Since then, we have tripled the endowed funds to increase the value 

of each award so the impact is stronger.” 

If you would like more information on the Alumni Association, 

please visit www.LouisianaAlumni.org 

In 2010, the Alumni Association gave over $100,000 in scholarship 

dollars to the Foundation and was inducted into the Distinguished 

Donor Hall of Honor. The funds were raised through a variety of 

sources including the Alumni Annual Fund and the UL License Plate 

affinity program. 

Nearly ten different clubs and chapters of the Alumni Association 

have established additional scholarships for students and these 

constituent groups host their own fundraising events to maintain and 

increase their respective funds. With a roster of over 1000 members,

Become a RCAF 

member and watch our 

student athletes soar 


The university is able to hire high 

profile coaches with a proven history 

of winning and renovate and build 

new athletic facilities 

UL LAFAYETTE ATHLETICS 

RAGINCAJUNS.COM | 337.482.5393 

In the spring of 2009, the Ragin’ Cajun Athletic Foundation officially 

kicked off and since then, Ragin’ Cajun Athletics has not been the 

same. From the hiring of new coaches to the improvements of athletic 

facilities, nearly every sport is feeling the positive effects 

of RCAF. 

Before RCAF was officially launched, it took a lot of time and 

research to set up the Foundation correctly. Board members and 

stakeholders met with other universities to determine best practices 

on building a successful program. “We thought it would be humble 

beginnings,” said John Bordelon, RCAF Board Chairman. “We just 

really want to put the message out there and encourage as many 

people as possible to get involved.” 

Since its inception, the RCAF annual fund has raised over one million 

dollars. In 2010 alone, approximately 580 individuals contributed 

to the fund. Considering there are over 100,000 alumni of UL 

Lafayette, there is plenty of room for growth. “The number of people 

contributing is as important as the amount being contributed,” 

Bordelon said. “If 30-40,000 alumni give $100 a year that could 

make a significant difference. People in the Cajun community are not 

used to giving to athletics on an annual basis. We need to change 

that mindset.” 

cuts,” he said. “Working together, we can concentrate on the 

university’s core mission of academic excellence while continuing 

to move our athletics program forward.” 

One way RCAF has been able to make an impact is through the hiring 

of top tier coaches like basketball coach Bob Marlin, football coach 

Mark Hudspeth, and women’s tennis coach Greg Harkins. “A benefit 

of RCAF is that funds are available to supplement in addition to what 

the university is able to offer, making a salary package much more 

attractive” Bordelon said. 

Scott Farmer agrees. “Two years ago we would not have been able to 

do this,” Farmer said. “When we are talking to potential coaches and 

we share our budget and our resources with them compared to their 

peers in the Sunbelt, it’s impressive. RCAF helped us achieve that.” 


First class athletic facilities, 

conference titles and 

national rankings 

Although the athletic department has been fund raising for years, an 

annual fund drive is a much different approach. Previously, money 

was raised as a need arose, but now, it is raised on a continual basis. 

As a result, the annual fund drive provides dollars to supplement 

the athletic budget and its programs while providing a sustainable 

revenue source year after year. “With RCAF, we can plan ahead,” 

Interim Director of Athletics Scott Farmer said. “It allows us to plan 

and let the Athletic Director do what he needs to do to advance the 

department. The faster the annual fund grows, the faster the athletic 

department can grow.” 

Dr. Joseph Savoie, UL Lafayette’s President, supports the strategic 

approach to raising funds needed for athletics. “The RCAF’s 

involvement is especially important in light of recent state budget 

Other ways RCAF has made an impact is assisting in the overhaul 

of the softball, baseball and track facilities and setting up a new 

infrastructure in the athletic department. New operational positions 

in football and basketball have taken over day to day administrative 

tasks to allow the coaches to focus on coaching. 

“Athletics is the face of many universities and we can have 

successful athletic programs that will bring attention to 

our university,” Bordelon said. “If we attract high caliber faculty 

and students to the university because of athletic recognition, 

it’s a win-win.”
