SU Today Spring 2008
(Volume 13, Number 1)

Cover Story: Philanthropic traditions that serve others must be taught and passed from generation to generation. Shenandoah University is fortunate to count among its supporters more than 70 families who share a legacy of giving. Read about three of these families: the Wilkinses, the Dearings and the Hesters.

Also in this issue: Words, words, words. Life in the 21st century seems dominated by verbal communication. Messages come at us fast and furious from every direction. Maybe it’s time to stop, look at a painting and consider why art matters.
SU Today Fall 2007
(Volume 12, Number 3)

Cover Story:Through medical mission trips, Shenandoah is building on its tradition of faith-based mission work and reaffirming its dedication to citizenship, professional service and global outreach. For the individuals who go to the remote towns and villages, the trips are much more personal.

Also in this issue: They may not get to the major leagues, but Division III student-athletes are getting something great: a solid education, the respect of their peers and the skills to succeed in life no matter where they go. And, call it “planned programmatic adjustments” or “a realignment of programs,” the goal is to simply do what we say it do — only better.
SU Today Summer 2007

Cover Story: The Davis family moved to Winchester in 1982 when 37-year-old James A. Davis became the 15th president of Shenandoah. He and his wife Janet Copple Davis along with their three children have watched the institution grow up as the family grew up.

Also in this issue: May Commencement speaker Alma J. Powell reminded the Class of 2007 of lessons they learned in kindergarten and shared one of her favorite Dr. Seuss books. And, endowments and scholarships provide the financial assistance that make college educations possible for most students. Katie Kjellman ’07 shares her story, which is unique — but not at all uncommon.

Also in this issue: Dr. Laurence Kaptain began his new career as dean of Shenandoah Conservatory in 2006, and he jumped in with unbridled enthusiasm, making a big splash with a major event at the Music Center at Strathmore. And, the university’s cable television station now shares a state-of-the-art communication center with an ABC affiliate, making Shenandoah one of only two college campuses in the country with a commercial TV station on its campus.
