PERSPECTIVE
Celebrating Traditions. Embracing Tomorrow.
TV he fall issue of Profile is dedicated to our many supporters among our
alumni, students, faculty, staff, and other college friends. Appropriately
so! You are the people that play such a huge role in giving back to
Lenoir-Rhyne in a way that allows us to achieve the excellence that has
long been our heritage. You will find in these pages a list of our donors, a list
that includes 30 percent of our alumni and 97 percent of our faculty. Both num-
bers are ones of which we should all be proud. The alumni giving rate of 30
percent is up from 8 percent 10 years ago, and it places Lenoir-Rhyne in a class
with the truly distinguished liberal arts colleges in the country. But more than
that, it signifies the commitment you have to ensuring that the College will
continue to provide the best possible learning experience in educating the next
generation of leaders.
These are tough economic times, especially in this region of North Carolina. Most
colleges are experiencing a decline in financial support from alumni and commu-
nity leaders. Lenoir-Rhyne, however, is continuing to receive the critical support
necessary to improve its facilities. The first phase of the campaign to fund the
conversion of Mauney and Schaeffer Halls into academic buildings is nearing
completion. On Nov. 1, a one-year renovation project begins on these buildings,
with the end result being state-of-the-art conference facilities, a career center,
offices and classrooms for three academic schools, space for outreach programs
to the community, and computer laboratories. The entire community is looking
forward to the unveiling of the new facility at Homecoming 2004.
We are especially excited about our enrollment this fall. The total enrollment
reached 1550, up from 1486 last year. The incoming class of freshmen and
transfers is a record size, and our retention rate rose to a 10-year high.
Our students and faculty continue to work together in the classroom, in the
laboratories, on community service projects, and in addressing the problems
&
of tomorrow. It is not surprising that "U.S. News World Report" once again
ranked us number one in North Carolina in our Carnegie classification.
We have a busy year ahead of us, and we hope you will join with us as we work
to implement our goals of excellence. A Master Land Plan is under develop-
ment and will outline the plans for our campus' physical structure over the
next decade. We have a task force working to design new marketing projects
for the College. Our evening and graduate programs are undergoing review so
that they can provide maximum benefits to this community. But, most exciting
of all will be the continued successes of our students as they grow and mature
in their personal and spiritual lives. That is the highlight of every year at
Lenoir-Rhyne. I thank all of you who help make this possible.
Sincerely,
Wayne B. Powell, Ph.D.
President ofthe College
