A Message f ro m t h e Chair With the completion of this spring’s National Advisory Council meeting in April, I will be concluding my service as chair of the National Advisory Council. Needless to say, it has been a wonderful and meaningful experience! Working with both Dr. Frances Kochan and Dean Betty Lou Whitford during their respective times as dean, as well as the college’s faculty, staff and Student Ambassadors, has been a highlight. Thanks to each of you for your support, help, encouragement and friendship. You have certainly been a large part of my life the past five years while serving as your chair. You will certainly not be forgotten! Blessings to each of you. To our alumni and friends who make so much of what is achieved by the college possible, thanks to you as well. It has been an extreme honor working on the behalf of you and our thousands of Education alumni in serving the college in this manner. You have much to be proud of in the tireless efforts of our faculty and staff, and amazing achievements of our students and your fellow alumni. Warmest regards, and War Eagle! James “Jim” Manley ’60 Chair, National Advisory Council Celebrating a legacy As part of the celebration of the deanship of Dr. Frances Kochan, National Advisory Council chair Jim Manley presented Kochan with a plaque to commemorate a new fund for excellence established in her honor. The fully funded Frances K. Kochan Endowed Fund for Excellence, which will provide financial support for College of Education students, was created through personal gifts by council members, then expanded to include support from faculty, staff, students, alumni and friends to honor Kochan. To learn how to make additional gifts to the fund, contact the college’s Development Office at 334.844.5793. Council taps ‘sustainers’ to help support student-led advocacy, outreach Since the inception of the college’s National Advisory Council in the late 1980s, more than 100 alumni and friends of the college have served, or are currently serving, the college through this volunteer capacity. To reconnect past members, the council recently created a “sustaining member” status available to council members who have “retired” from the council in previous years. Just as current council members contribute each year to provide seed funding for faculty research “mini-grants,’’ sustaining members have been invited to assist with funding new grant efforts — with student leaders being the ones seeking the use of these funds. Through the efforts of Internal Relations Committee chair Susan McIntosh Housel ’73, the council has established funding opportunities for projects that develop student leadership and create opportunities for service learning. These projects further the commitment to volunteer service fostered through academic coursework and student organization service. Such a commitment leads students to opportunities for advocacy and outreach on behalf of schools and community organizations for which this type of support is critical. The council’s advocacy and outreach focus is built on the foundation created by the college’s AuburnVoices program (see page 27). Auburn- Voices’ framework for developing advocacy in action also creates a structure for the college’s students and faculty to receive training in leadership, mentoring and grant-writing. Leaders in the college’s 15 student organizations and specific classes can pursue these “mini-grants” as they seek to assist schools, community agencies and organizations.
