CENTRAL PIEDMONT COMMUNITY COLLEGE |
Serving our community for 50 years—and counting.
Graduation Day, 2011
Message from the President
Dr. Tony Zeiss
“While CPCC
remembers and
celebrates its first
50 years, in no way
do we consider
our first
half-century to be
the College’s
golden years.”
When Central Piedmont Community
College opened its doors in 1963, we and
other community colleges across the nation
were breaking new ground. Community
colleges were asked to be innovative in
finding new ways to educate and train
adults from ages 18 to 60 for careers in
manufacturing, the trades and emerging
technologies, such as computers. CPCC
has never ceased being innovative and
entrepreneurial. The College always has
endeavored to meet the ever-changing
needs of Mecklenburg County residents,
businesses and industries.
Given this history, it’s fitting that during
CPCC’s 50th year the College has taken
the lead in fostering discussion and
action in driving the Charlotte region to
develop a new, global economic vision. On
February 21, 2013, business, education
and community leaders participated in the
second Global Competitiveness Summit
hosted by CPCC. Building on the success
of our August 2012 global summit, the
second event focused on what competitive
advantages are needed by the region to
increase global trade and prosper in the
world market.
UNC Charlotte and key employers in
emerging business and manufacturing
sectors. CPCC’s Small Business Center
will maintain our focus on cultivating
the entrepreneurial community and
stimulating local jobs by implementing
strategies that meet the needs of aspiring
entrepreneurs and existing businesses. The
College will continue to develop advanced
manufacturing training programs certified
by industry. Finally, CPCC will ensure
international companies know we welcome
them, and we are prepared to meet their
specific workforce needs.
The summit participants responded to a
series of survey questions and agreed our
region needs strategic and decisive action in
the following areas:
While CPCC remembers and celebrates
our first 50 years, in no way do we consider
our first half-century to be the College’s
golden years. We know CPCC’s most
important work lies before us. Our efforts
to make the Charlotte region a center
for advanced manufacturing and global
commerce will resonate throughout the
next 50 years and beyond.
• Workforce development and education;
• Entrepreneurship and small business
development;
• Advanced manufacturing;
• Transportation and logistics; and
• Research in all of the above areas.
There is no time to waste. We must
move our vision into plans for action
that increase the region’s global presence
and make it a hub of global commerce.
We must measure our success by the
development of people and jobs. The
creation and recruitment of new,
sustainable jobs is our goal and greatest
indicator of success.
Thank you for your continued support
of CPCC. Together we’re making
Mecklenburg County an even better place
to live, work and follow one’s dreams.
Sincerely,
Dr. Tony Zeiss
President
How will we create and attract these jobs?
We’ll succeed by providing and preparing
the best-skilled workers in the nation,
helping businesses and entrepreneurs
become successful in global trade, and
integrating manufacturing and logistics.
CPCC will play an important role
in making this region the center of
global commerce. CPCC will create a
collaborative workforce development plan
with Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools,

CPCC expands
Harper Campus
CPCC completed a $9-million
construction and renovation project
at its Harper Campus in October. The
College added 34,422 square feet of new
construction and renovated 20,752 square
feet of existing space at this southwest
campus location.
CPCC used restored funds originally
earmarked under a 2005 Mecklenburg
County bond referendum to grow its
Harper Campus.
Following 12 months of construction,
led by Rodgers, the Harper Campus is
now home to 11 new classrooms needed
to grow the campus’s general education
offerings; a new carpentry, masonry,
and blueprint reading classroom, to
enhance the capabilities of its Crowder
Construction Institute; and a new walk-in
bookstore and expanded parking area, to
keep pace with the campus’s expanding
student body.
Dr. Tony Zeiss and wife Beth attend an open house event at Harper Campus with Katherine Harper.
The campus renovated several other spaces
as well. The Non-Destructive Examination,
Welding Technology, Electrical Systems
Technology and Air Conditioning,
Heating and Refrigeration programs
received equipment upgrades to help
instructors better train students on today’s
emerging technologies.
In addition, the campus expanded its
Graphic Arts and Imaging Technology
program to accommodate new graphic arts
equipment, printing rooms and classroom
space. The changes significantly increase
the program’s student capacity. d
CPCC hosts two Global Competitiveness Summits
The opening of a major intermodal facility
at Charlotte-Douglas International
Airport, combined with the expansion
of the Panama Canal in 2014, will
significantly affect trade routes across
the globe and present significant
entrepreneurial, manufacturing and
transportation opportunities for the
Charlotte
region.
Ships from
Asia will be
able to reach
the east coast
of the United
States more
quickly and
directly. This
change to the
world’s shipping

center and leader in global commerce and
manufacturing.
To prepare the region’s key decision
makers for this global shift, CPCC hosted
two Global Competitiveness Summits,
in August 2012 and in February 2013, to
discuss what opportunities exist for the
region to create, make and move products
across the global marketplace.
In attendance were Seth D. Harris,
acting U.S. secretary of labor; Charlotte
Mayor Anthony Foxx; Sharon Decker,
N.C. commerce secretary; Peter Ammon
German ambassador to the United States;
Bob Morgan, president and CEO of the
Charlotte Chamber of Commerce; and
others.
Both events successfully engaged Charlottearea stakeholders in developing strategies
and partnerships that will allow the region
to grow a robust and resilient advanced
manufacturing economy, workforce pipeline
and transportation infrastructure. d
CPCC, Siemens
receive Distinguished
Partners in
Excellence award
In February 2013, the State Board of
Community Colleges awarded CPCC
and Siemens Energy of Charlotte, N.C.,
its Distinguished Partners in Excellence
Award.
The award honors an exemplary
employer, business or industry group
that has demonstrated a commitment
to the professional development of its
employees and/or the development of
North Carolina’s workforce through its
partnership efforts with one or more of the
state’s 58 community colleges.
CPCC, IHK Karlsruhe honor first class of
German industry certification programs
During a special ceremony on May 8,
CPCC and IHK Karlsruhe, a German
regional chamber of industry and
commerce, recognized the first students
nearing completion of CPCC’s IHKcertified job-training programs.
The program was created as the result of a
cooperative education agreement between
CPCC and IHK Karlsruhe that made
CPCC the first U.S. community college to
offer IHK-certified job-training programs.
The partnership between CPCC and
Siemens began more than 12 years ago
and has evolved to include many levels
of each organization. Over the years,
Siemens has collaborated with CPCC on
a variety of customized training projects –
administered by the College – to train its
workforce in the areas of pre-employment,
new employee orientation and specialized
classes.
As a result of the partnership’s success,
CPCC has extended services to Siemens
Global, the company’s parent company in
Germany.
CPCC recently collaborated with the
company’s global offices to become certified
as the first N.C. community college to
offer the Siemens Mechatronic Systems
Certification program. The curriculum
associated with this specialized track is
being integrated into the College’s current
Mechatronics Engineering Technology
program, allowing CPCC to offer the
certification to local companies, students
and apprentices. d
Prof. Hans-Peter Mengele
The program’s curriculum gives CPCC
students the opportunity to take classes
that lead to IHK-endorsed certificates.
These German certifications will make
CPCC students and the Charlotte region
more attractive to German and other
European companies.
“As President Obama has repeatedly
emphasized, a well-educated, well-trained
workforce is a fundamental requirement
for success in the global economy of the
21st century,” said Prof. Hans-Peter
Mengele, CEO, IHK Karlsruhe. “In this
spirit, our collaboration with CPCC in
Charlotte will support and strengthen the
many German companies already located
in the Carolinas and will further prepare
American workers to take full advantage of
new opportunities in the job market.”
Currently, there are 58 German companies
based in or near Karlsruhe that have
Charlotte-area operations. Overall, there
are approximately 200 German companies
with facilities in the Charlotte region
and about 500 in the Carolinas. The 200
German companies in the Charlotte region
employ approximately 2,800 people. d
CPCC student receives 2013 Robert W. Scott
Student Leadership Award
Zaman Rashid,
a student
at CPCC,
received the
prestigious
2013 Robert
W. Scott
Student
Leadership
Award. The
recognition
is the highest honor given for student
leadership by the North Carolina
Community College System. Rashid
received the award and a check for $1,000
during a special Academic Excellence
Award ceremony at CPCC in May.
Sponsored by the North Carolina
Association of Community College
Presidents, the award honors students who
demonstrate leadership on a statewide
level. Rashid currently serves as president
of CPCC’s academic honor society – Phi
Theta Kappa – and has received accolades
for his service work as a translator and
mentor with Solace for the Children, an
organization that provides medical care,
education and leadership development
opportunities for children in war-torn
countries. Rashid first came to the U.S. as a
patient with Solace.
“Zaman embodies the qualities of a great
student leader,” adds Dr. Tony Zeiss,
president of CPCC. “He expects the best
from himself, he encourages others to be
at their best, he works to serve the larger
community and he is well-respected among
peers and faculty.” d

CPCC student named 2013 Coca-Cola
New Century Scholar
Riyam Al Ghrary, a student at CPCC,
has been named a 2013 Coca-Cola New
Century Scholar. The program, sponsored
by The Coca-Cola Foundation, CocaCola Scholars Foundation, Phi Theta
Kappa and the American Association
of Community Colleges, honors
outstanding community college students
for their academic excellence and
outstanding achievements outside the
classroom.
Riyam Al Ghrary
Fifty community college students were
chosen to be a Coca-Cola New Century
Scholar; Al Ghrary was selected as the
highest scoring student in North Carolina.
As a result, CPCC was recognized at the
American Association of Community
Colleges Convention and Al Ghrary will
receive a $2,000 scholarship.
“Riyam draws from her love of learning
and her innate intelligence to succeed,”
said Amanda Capobianchi, associate dean
of Student Life at CPCC. “She is among
our most active students on campus and
is an excellent student who sets very high
standards for herself. Her self-discipline is
unmatched and I am extremely confident
in her success for the future.”
In addition to being a member of
CPCC’s PTK Chapter, Al Ghrary is vice
president of the Student Government
Association; has completed the College’s
Student Leadership Academy; is an active
participant in a number of CPCC servicelearning projects; and is a dedicated tutor,
helping fellow students in math. d
CPCC students participate in Service-Learning
During 2012, approximately 2,500 students
donated 28,185 hours of service to the
greater Charlotte-Mecklenburg area through
CPCC’s Service-Learning initiative.
CPCC’s Service-Learning Center’s efforts
are highly valued by community agencies,
non-profits, public schools, retirement
homes and local government. Examples of
these partnerships include:
• Habitat for Humanity Critical Home
Repair: Students in the Sustainable
Technologies program conducted energy
audits and helped weatherize the homes
of low-income homeowners served by
Habitat.
• Charlotte Public Tree Fund and
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Storm Water:
Students in geology courses researched
the importance of planting trees along the
waterways and recruited volunteers for the
annual Creek ReLeaf event, during which
more than 2,000 trees were planted.

CPCC students giving back to the community
• Project Life: Students from the Health
Science Division provided educational
programs on bone marrow transplants and
conducted a Project Life bone marrow
drive, during which more than 300
individuals signed up to become part of the
National Bone Marrow Registry.
Data collected and analyzed by the CPCC
Planning and Research department indicate
that Service-Learning students are more
likely to earn better grades, return to school
in subsequent semesters and graduate with a
degree or diploma. d
CMS, CPCC student
graduates with two
degrees
Sierra Easter, a senior at Cato Middle
College High School (CMCHS) on
CPCC’s Cato Campus, graduated in May
2013 with two degrees – a high school
diploma from Charlotte-Mecklenburg
Schools (CMS) and an associate degree
from CPCC.
Sierra Easter
CMCHS is the first and only CMS
middle-college program that provides CMS
high school juniors and seniors with the
opportunity to earn college credit hours
while still in high school, at no cost to
them or their families. It is also part of the
Career & College Promise program which
provides free dual enrollment opportunities
for eligible N.C. high school students.
Sierra graduated from CMCHS in May
2013 with 64 college credit hours, making
her the only graduating Mecklenburg
County high school senior in 2013 to
accomplish this goal.
As a result, she enrolled at UNC-Chapel
Hill this fall as a college junior, with no
college debt, a jump-start on her continued
education and a passion to succeed in
future challenges. d
In memoriam
As CPCC celebrates its 50th anniversary
year, it seems appropriate to remember one
of the College’s founding fathers – the late
Dr. Richard Hagemeyer who passed away
on December 26, 2012.
And while more than 25 years have passed
since Dr. Hagemeyer’s retirement from
CPCC in 1986, his impact on the College
can still be found within its walls and
performance venues.
Dr. Hagemeyer was CPCC’s first president,
leading Mecklenburg County’s community
college from 1963 to 1986. During his
tenure, the
College
expanded its
footprint from
a single building
on Elizabeth
Avenue
serving 1,600
students, to a
thriving higher
education
institution
with 33 acres,
24 buildings
and 54,000
students.
That’s because many of the programs
launched during his presidency continue
to thrive today. These include the College’s
Small Business
Center,
Corporate and
Continuing
Education,
eLearning
classes, CPCC
Summer
Theatre and
literacy courses.
And, so,
the College
celebrates
its golden
anniversary

CPCC launches Career Coach
Earlier this year, CPCC launched Career
Coach, a free online tool that allows local
residents and CPCC students to explore
potential careers. The tool may be accessed
by visiting www.cpcc.edu/careercoach.
By conducting a simple keyword search,
visitors are able to learn about the
employment prospects of a variety of career
fields. The tool provides local employment
statistics in real-time and is customized to
CPCC’s geographic region.
Site visitors can view detailed wage estimates
and up-to-date job postings associated with
careers, connect to CPCC programs that
match their specific job search, search for
similar jobs, and identify skills gaps they
need to fill in order to transition into a new
career. Users can also search for careers based
on the College’s training programs or by the
program or major that interests them most.
In addition to the many features mentioned
above, the Career Coach tool also includes a
built-in résumé builder that can help students
and job seekers quickly and efficiently create
an up-to-date résumé that highlights their key
skills and job experience. d

Health program grads
score well on
national exams
In 2012, CPCC graduates in Cardiovascular
Technology, Dental Hygiene, Dental
Assisting, Medical Assisting, Physical
Therapist Assistant, Cytotechnology,
Respiratory Therapy, and Substance
Abuse earned 100-percent passing rates on
their national certification examinations.
Students completing these health care
programs must earn passing scores on
specific certification exams to start their
careers in their chosen fields.
Cardiovascular Technology
These 100-percent scores reflect the rigor
of CPCC’s health programs and the
effort put forth by CPCC faculty and
students. Graduates from all of CPCC’s
health care programs bring knowledge,
skills and professionalism to their careers,
helping ensure high-quality health care for
Mecklenburg County residents. d
CPCC creates Apprenticeship Charlotte
CPCC announced the launch of
Apprenticeship Charlotte in 2012, a
new career-training program CPCC will
customize to meet the specific needs of
individual companies.
CPCC created Apprenticeship Charlotte by
drawing on its experience with the successful
Apprenticeship 2000 program, which
focuses on high school students and serves
about a dozen European manufacturing
companies in the Charlotte region. Through
Apprenticeship Charlotte, CPCC offers
multiple apprenticeship models, including
associate degree, diploma and certificate
options with multiple entry points. The goal
is to make apprenticeships more flexible to
meet employer needs.
“For centuries, apprenticeships have been an
excellent way for employers to build a talent
pipeline,” explained Richard Zollinger,
CPCC vice president for learning and
workforce development. “Apprenticeships
can be invaluable when permanent positions
are available but skilled talent is difficult to
find, when a company has plans for future
expansion, when current employees need
retraining and skills upgrades, and when
goals for diversity have been hard to achieve.”
Two local and national workforce
development trends solidified CPCC’s
decision to develop Apprenticeship
Charlotte. First, there is a well-documented
skills gap or shortage of trained workers for
high-tech manufacturing jobs and other
technical fields. Second, most companies
Representatives from the N.C. Department of Labor
recognize HAWE North America, Inc., as an official Apprenticeship
Charlotte employer. HAWE is one of the first companies
to connect to CPCC’s Apprenticeship Charlotte program.
want job candidates who already have some
level of experience.
“CPCC, through Apprenticeship Charlotte,
will work with individual companies
to create an apprenticeship model that
meets their needs,” Zollinger said. “Some
employers might be interested in training
high school students; others might want
traditional age college students in associate
degree or diploma programs. There could
be other companies that want people with
previous experience or incumbent workers
who can be trained quickly in a new process
or to use a new technology.” d
CPCC launches Corporate Learning Center
Mecklenburg County businesses and
industries looking for help with employee
learning and development now have a
single point of contact at CPCC. The
College, in 2012, established its Corporate
Learning Center, with staff based at the
Harris Campus.
“The Corporate Learning Center is
CPCC’s gateway for serving the wide
range of learning and development
needs of businesses and organizations in
Mecklenburg County,” explained Mary
Vickers-Koch, CPCC dean of business
and industry learning. “The College’s great
span of learning, expertise and experience
8
make CPCC a uniquely positioned
workforce development resource to meet
the performance and organizational needs
of companies.”
Based on these and other discussions, the
Corporate Learning Center will develop a
customized program to meet the business
or organization’s specific needs. d
CPCC’s Corporate Learning Center
partners with businesses and organizations
to identify and understand their specific
employee learning and development needs.
The process poses a number of assessment
questions, including:
• What are your business plans?
• What improvements in employee
competencies do you want to achieve?
• What behaviors do you want to impact?

CPCC’s Culinary Arts program
earns “exemplary” grade
The American Culinary Federation
Education Foundation (ACFEF)
Accrediting Commission identified
CPCC’s associate degree program in
Culinary Arts as “exemplary” in 2012. The
CPCC Culinary Arts program is the only
associate degree program in North Carolina
and one of just 60 in the nation to earn the
exemplary designation.
The Culinary Arts program at CPCC
qualified as an exemplary program after
undergoing the process of renewing its
accreditation. CPCC met or exceeded
nationally recognized ACFEF standards
for eligibility, program mission and goals,
organization and administration, faculty and
staff, curriculum, facilities, student services,
and internal assessments.
“Being declared an exemplary program by
the American Culinary Federation is a clear
indication of the quality of culinary arts at
CPCC and the hard work and devotion of
our faculty and staff,” said Bob Boll, director
of CPCC’s Hospitality Education Division.
“Our primary goal is student success and
preparing students for great careers in the
restaurant and hospitality industry.” d
CPCC creates
The Center for
Energy Training
Companies within the Charlotte region’s
energy cluster now have a partner in
developing and enhancing their talent
pipelines to meet their current and future
workforce needs. CPCC established The
Center for Energy Training in 2013 to
help ensure workforce development needs
are met in this important economic and
employment sector.
CPCC created The Center for Energy
Training with in-depth input from several
employers in the energy sector, including
Siemens, CB&I, Duke Energy, Piedmont
Natural Gas, 02 Energies, Celgard, ABB,
Carotek, Coalogix, Areva, Parsons, URS,
Westinghouse, Zachary, Lime Energy,
Toshiba, Abundant Power, Crowder
Construction, and Balfour Beatty
Construction.
“The ability and success of the Charlotte
region’s economy to sustain and grow its
energy sector will depend, in large part,
on how well we develop talent pipelines
to ensure employers have a reliable source
of qualified and highly skilled workers,”
explained Richard Zollinger, vice president
for learning and workforce development at
CPCC. “Through the partnerships we seek
to establish with The Center for Energy
Training, we can help secure the viability of
energy-sector employers for years to come.”
Bill Heitman, director of The Center for Energy Training
Bill Heitman has returned to CPCC to
serve as the College’s executive energy
advisor and director of The Center for
Energy Training. Prior to retiring from
CPCC in 2009, Heitman served as
executive director of learning services,
representing the College to the business
community. d
CPCC adds AAS program in
pharmacy technology
CPCC welcomed the first students to its
new, two-year associate degree Pharmacy
Technology program in August 2012.
The new program is training students to
become pharmacy technicians who work
closely with pharmacists in hospitals,
drug and grocery stores and other medical
facilities. Pharmacy technicians help
prepare and distribute medications. In
pharmacy settings, pharm techs screen
prescription orders for accuracy, prepare
and sometimes mix medications, perform
various calculations and use technology to
maintain patient records. The program will
help meet a growing need for pharm techs
in the Mecklenburg County area. d

College returns WTVI to full-PBS programming,
hires new GM
In October 2012, CPCC returned newly
acquired public TV station WTVI to a full
weekday and prime time schedule of PBS
programming. The move marked CPCC’s
relaunch of the station and its rebranding
as PBS Charlotte. Prior to CPCC taking
over WTVI’s FCC license, the station
for several years had shown only a partial
schedule of PBS shows. CPCC announced
the programming change and new PBS
Charlotte name at a news conference
and through a multi-media advertising
campaign.
In May 2013, CPCC hired TV veteran
Amy Burkett to be the new PBS Charlotte
general manager. Burkett came to
Charlotte from Bethlehem, Pa., where she
was executive vice president and station
manager of WLVT-TV PBS39. During
her tenure at PBS39, Burkett and her team
earned four national public television
awards, eight Pennsylvania Association of
Broadcasters Awards, 28 regional Emmy
nominations, six Emmys, and one regional
Edward R. Murrow Award. d
CPCC turns 50
CPCC officially kicked off its 50th
anniversary celebration in January. The
College has evolved from a one-building
higher education institution on Elizabeth
Ave., offering about a dozen programs to
1,600 students, to one of the Southeast’s
largest community colleges that serves
more than 70,000 students a year and offers
more than 300 academic degree, corporate
and business training and personal interest
programs on six campuses.

Dr. Tony Zeiss travels to Germany to build
business connections
CPCC President Dr. Tony Zeiss spent a
week in Germany in June 2013 to strengthen
the College’s and
Charlotte region’s
connections with
German corporate and
government leaders.
Dr. Zeiss’ primary mission was to support
the U.S. Embassy’s Strategic Speakers
Program through presentations and personal
10
participation in a number of events in Berlin
and southern Germany. He was invited by
the U.S. Embassy as a nationally recognized
U.S. community college leader on workforce
development and training issues and
CPCC’s pioneering role in the adaptation
and integration of German models and best
practices.
The theme of Dr. Zeiss’ formal presentations
in Germany was “Global Competitiveness
and the Importance of Skilled Workers.” He
also used the opportunity to meet personally
with CPCC’s key educational, training
and business partners. These included the
Siemens Academy in Berlin, Karlsruhe
Chamber of Industry and Commerce in
Karlsruhe, and FESTO AG and FESTO
Didactic in Esslingen and Denkendorf. d

gratitude for your support of the College and its students. In the 2012-13 fiscal year, donors
such as you made gifts totaling more than $6.9 million. We are most grateful to individuals,
corporations and foundations for their generosity. As public funding for the College
continues to decrease, your contributions enable the College to fulfill its mission of providing
outstanding education and career-training opportunities to the citizens of our region. Your support comes at an important time in the history of CPCC. In 2013-14, the College
is celebrating its 50th year of service to Charlotte-Mecklenburg. In conjunction with this
milestone, we are conducting the “Legacy and Promise” campaign to position the College to
embark on its second 50 years. With a goal of $30 million, it is the largest fundraising effort
in the College’s history. With your assistance, more than $24.9 million has been raised. Your
continued support will help us achieve the campaign’s ambitious goal.
Many thanks for all you have done for CPCC and for all you will do in the future.
Sincerely,
Thomas E. Norman

CPCC names building, institute for
James R. Worrell Sr.
In recognition of the generosity shown
by James R. Worrell Sr., retired managing
partner with Northwestern Mutual, CPCC
has named a building and its Financial
Services Institute in his honor.
A Charlotte civic leader and philanthropist,
Worrell is a long-time supporter of CPCC.
He has served on the CPCC Foundation
board of directors for more than 20 years,
the Foundation’s planned giving committee
since 2007, and the “Legacy and Promise”
campaign steering committee, which is
leading efforts to raise $30 million for the
College.
CPCC has named a newly renovated and
expanded Central Campus building for
Worrell. The 70,417 square-foot facility,
located on Elizabeth Avenue, is used by
more than 2,000 students a day. The
Worrell Building houses a gymnasium,
fitness center, 17 classrooms and seven
faculty/staff offices. The gym provides a large
flexible venue for meetings, conferences,
receptions and special events and is available
to College and external groups.
The College has also honored Worrell by
naming the James R. Worrell Sr. Financial
12
Services Institute based at the Harris
Campus. The institute serves as a platform
for CPCC’s CFP® Certification Education
Program and the many business and
financial services courses offered through
Corporate and Continuing Education.
In addition, at Worrell’s request, CPCC
will use a portion of his gift to provide
scholarships for students who represent
first-generation college students.
CPCC President Dr. Tony Zeiss says,
“CPCC is fortunate to have supporters like
Jim, his wife Nancy, and their family.
“The naming of the Worrell Building and
the Worrell Financial Services Institute is
a lasting legacy and permanent recognition
of Jim Worrell’s many business
accomplishments, his civic leadership
and service to CPCC. CPCC is honored
to have the name of such a prominent
Charlotte-Mecklenburg citizen and
outstanding CPCC Foundation board
member among the named buildings and
programs at the College. The generosity
of the Worrell family has moved CPCC
significantly closer to its ‘Legacy and
Promise’ campaign goal.”
James R. Worrell Sr. receives the Distinguished
Service Award, CPCC’s highest honor; May 16, 2013.
Jim’s son, Richard, now at the helm of
Northwestern Mutual, will continue his
father’s legacy of service and philanthropy at
CPCC. Richard was recently elected to the
CPCC President’s Advisory Council. d
Howard R. Levine
Foundation gives
$500,000 to CPCC
In 2012, the Howard R. Levine
Foundation of Charlotte, N.C., made two
grants totaling $500,000 to CPCC.
The first, a $100,000-grant, enabled the
College to hire additional part-time faculty
members to meet the need for expanded
class offerings created by enrollment
growth.
“Thanks to the Howard R. Levine
Foundation’s generous support, the
College has been able to add classes in highdemand core courses, which are needed by
students to advance their academic progress
and career training,” said Dr. Tony Zeiss,
CPCC president. “The Foundation’s grant
has helped CPCC address a pressing need
and ensure opportunities and access for our
students.”
The Foundation’s second grant of
$400,000 established the Howard R.
Levine Veterans Scholarship Fund and
the Howard R. Levine Veterans Resource
Center at CPCC’s Levine Campus in
Matthews. The scholarship fund will
provide much-needed financial assistance
to U.S. military veterans who lack GI Bill
benefits or whose benefits are inadequate
to meet their educational costs. The Levine
Veterans Resource Center will provide
counseling, academic advising and other
Fonville endowment
receives second gift
The Charles L. & Doris M. Fonville
Foundation made a gift this year to the
Fonville Scholarship at CPCC, doubling
the size of this permanent endowment
established in 2008 to provide assistance to
CPCC students with financial need who are
enrolled at the College on a full-time basis.
Tiffanie Briggs, 18, a Fonville Scholar
this year, said, “To be a Fonville Scholar
is someone who puts in a lot of work . . .
someone who studies night and day. I plan
to receive my associate degree in Arts and
then transfer to a four-year college. I want to
teach music education at the K-12 level.

Levine Campus.
“Providing access to education and
resources is crucial to ensuring that
returning service men and women receive
the training and support they need,” said
Howard Levine. “Words alone cannot
express my sincere appreciation for what
our military members have
endured to serve our country.
It’s my hope that through
these grants, CPCC will
continue to be a trusted
resource for our veterans,
giving them the tools they
need to ensure their future
success.”
individuals who have served their country.
“CPCC and the Charlotte-Mecklenburg
community are fortunate to have
supporters and friends like the Howard
R. Levine Foundation. We certainly
appreciate these meaningful grants and the
immediate and positive impact these will
make,” Zeiss said. d
According to Dr. Zeiss,
the Howard R. Levine
Foundation grants come at a
good time and meet growing
needs of the College.
“Over the past five years,
CPCC has experienced a
dramatic increase in its U.S.
veteran enrollment, as service
members return from duty
in Iraq and Afghanistan,”
Zeiss explained. “The
Howard R. Levine
Foundation’s compassion
and magnanimous support
will help the College meet
the needs of these deserving
Howard R. Levine discusses his foundation’s gift
to the Veterans Resource Center
alongside Nicholas Riggins (l) and Ralph Pitts (r).
“Without this award, it would be
challenging to pay for college. The Fonville
Scholarship helps me focus on my studies so
I can work hard to keep the scholarship and
have the funds to pay for tuition and books.
A total of 4,888 students at CPCC received
scholarships in the 2012–2013 academic
year. Scholarships continue to be among the
College’s greatest need. d
“To Mr. and Mrs. Fonville, I would like to
say thank you so much. I really appreciate all
you have done so students like me can get an
education at CPCC; you make it easier for
us to attend school.”
“It’s a hand-up,” said Mr. Fonville, president
of Fonville and Company and a member of
the CPCC Foundation board of directors.
“I want to help deserving individuals.”

(L to R) Ralph Pitts, Beth Zeiss, Dr. Tony Zeiss, Bob Moss
Alumnus makes gift
to name Engineering
Technology program
Bob Moss, a CPCC alumnus and
construction management executive in Fort
Lauderdale, Fla., made a gift to CPCC in
February to support CPCC’s Engineering
Technology program. In recognition of
Moss’ gift, the College named the Bob
L. Moss Civil Engineering Technology
Program. Moss’ contribution marks the
largest gift commitment by a CPCC
graduate in the College’s 50-year history. He
earned an associate degree in Construction
Technology from CPCC in 1968.
“It is a tremendous privilege
for me to support and honor
this College,” Moss said. “I
am proud to have my name
on the Civil Engineering
Technology program. If
this College had not been
available to me in 1966,
along with the affordable
education it provided, I
would have missed out
on a wonderful, exciting,
rewarding and successful
construction career.”
Upon graduating from CPCC, Moss
embarked on a highly successful career.
He held several positions of increasing
responsibility within the construction
field before becoming president of Centex
Construction Companies, the largest
domestic builder in the United States, in
1980.
There, Moss oversaw projects ranging
in size from $5 million to $500 million;
managed more than 400 active projects
across 25 states and 20 geographic locations;
and constructed commercial structures to
serve clients representing industries such as
health care, education, hospitality and more.
His professional efforts garnered national
recognition – Fortune Magazine named
the company one of the “Most Admired
Engineering Construction Firms in the
Nation” for 2000, 2001 and 2003.
In 2004, he founded Moss & Associates,
a firm that provides design-build, general
construction, construction management
and pre-construction consulting services to
clients throughout the U.S., Bahamas and
Caribbean. Within three years of opening,
the organization was named the “Fastest
Growing Company” by South Florida
Business Journal and was ranked among the
largest contractors in southeastern Florida.
While the company is headquartered in Fort
Lauderdale, Fla., it is expanding its presence
in the Carolinas, operating offices in both
Raleigh, N.C., and Greenville, S.C.
“We are most grateful to Bob for his
generous support of CPCC and proud of
his many accomplishments as a CPCC
alumnus,” said Dr. Tony Zeiss, president
of CPCC. “Thanks to his gift, our Civil
Engineering Technology program students
will receive a quality education that equips
them with the latest industry advances
and techniques, giving them a competitive
advantage in today’s workforce.” d
Bank of America supports Pathways program
and U.S. military veterans
In May 2013, Bank of America Foundation
announced a grant of $100,000 to support
the College’s Pathways to Careers Program
and assist U. S. military veterans.
Pathways to Careers
Grant funds for the Pathways program will
assist the College in providing academic,
social and occupational training to prepare
chronically unemployed and underemployed
individuals to enter the workforce. Program
participants are categorized as low-income
students challenged by multiple educational
and career-development barriers. The
program is intended to prepare students for
employment and to lead self-sufficient lives.
U.S. military veterans
Bank of America grant funds will also assist
U. S. military veterans pursuing educational
and career-preparation opportunities at
14
CPCC. In 2010, the College established its
first Veterans Resource Center to respond to
a significant increase in veteran enrollment.
The Center provides veterans with support
services, including individual and group
counseling and advising. Specifically, grant
funds will help employ a counselor for
the Center to assist veterans in choosing
programs of study and training that lead to
meaningful career paths; the counselor also
assists veterans in identifying employment
opportunities, writing résumés and
preparing for interviews. A college-wide
survey of veterans indicates that expedited
preparation for employment is the primary
reason veterans enroll at CPCC. d

WTVI PBS Charlotte
and Sporting
Clays Classic
Where can someone glean an in-depth look
at legendary broadcasters such as Doug
Mayes, Ty Boyd and Hattie Leeper; the
Mallard Creek barbecue; Charlotte textiles;
Revolutionary War hero Captain Jack;
Charlotte’s retail history; and more? The
answer: WTVI PBS Charlotte’s “Trail of
History” series.
In April 2013, Bragg Financial Advisors
became an underwriter of the station’s
“Trail of History” with a portion of its
$100,000 gift to CPCC. Acknowledging this
gift, College President Dr. Tony Zeiss said,
“PBS Charlotte is an essential community
resource that connects people in the heart
of the Carolinas through educational
programming, community outreach and
production services. The ‘Trail of History’
consistently ranks as a favorite program, and
we are grateful to Bragg Financial for helping
underwrite this series. It’s a valuable gift to
the community.”
A portion of Bragg Financial Advisors’
gift will also provide a multi-year
presenting sponsorship of the
College’s annual Sporting Clays
Classic. One of the premier shooting
events in the region, the Classic
marked its 10th anniversary this year.
Cumulatively, this event has raised
more than $1 million in cash and
in-kind support for CPCC.
The Sporting Clays Classic supports
CPCC Veteran Services, helping
military veterans enrolled at the
College transition to civilian life by
providing them with the resources
they need to achieve academic and
vocational goals. Proceeds also support
the College’s Public Safety Department,
providing basic training, skills maintenance
and advanced training to Charlotte’s
community of first responders.
This year’s Sporting Clays Classic enjoyed
record levels of participation; 256 shooters
competed in two rounds. The Sporting
Clays featured the Gnat, a fast-flying, radiocontrolled drone that emits a puff of smoke
when hit by a lucky or skilled shooter. The
CPCC Sporting Clays Classic is the first
sporting clays event in the region to host
the Gnat.
“There is a need in each one of us to give
back something to those who take care
of us. To the men and women coming
back from overseas who gave by putting
their lives on the line. And to those first
responders who give to us each and every
day, we want to help them in any way we
can. The proceeds from this Shoot help
us do that,” said Tod Thorne, chair of the
Sporting Clays Classic committee.
Benton Bragg, principal at Bragg Financial

Giving Back: A core value of Wilton Parr
The involvement of Wilton Parr in the life
of CPCC is widespread. While a college
graduate and retired executive of Piedmont
Natural Gas, Parr has taken numerous
courses at CPCC. He says, “I’ve taken a lot
of the liberal arts courses the College offers.”
Parr is a life-long learner. “CPCC has
so much to offer,” continues Parr. “You
can prepare for a career or simply learn
about a subject of interest or a hobby. It is
an innovative environment for everyone
involved.”
In December, right before the holidays, Parr
began talking about setting up a gift annuity
for his wife, Mary Dee, as a Christmas
present for her. He would establish the
annuity with a gift to the College, the
CPCC Foundation would invest the gift,
and his wife would receive a guaranteed
income for life. Parr would receive a tax
deduction at the time of the gift, and a
portion of his wife’s income each year
would be tax-deductible. At the end of her
life, the funds in the annuity would revert
Parr is a volunteer who
gives countless hours to the
community. Previously,
he was a Stephen minister
at Providence United
Methodist Church. He drives
the elderly and others to
doctor appointments; and for
almost 12 years, he tutored
students in CPCC’s ABLE
Program. In the midst of this,
Parr has given 350 donations
of blood and platelets
through the American Red
Cross.
Over the years, Parr and his wife have
provided scholarships for students attending
CPCC, and in 2006, they established

leaders from a variety of
professions and fields. In
addition, the Fund will
provide a scholarship to a
CPCC female student who
demonstrates leadership
abilities.
In a written statement,
current CPCC President
Dr. Tony Zeiss said, “This
is exciting and will be a
tremendous addition to
the life of the College
and the community. It is
a wonderful way to link
Ruth’s outstanding career
with current students at
CPCC.” d
A smart, witty and lovely young woman with
an amazing commitment to caring for others,
Vickie was passionate about her volunteer
work at Levine Children’s Hospital, MakeA-Wish, Special Olympics/Camp SOAR,
the homeless shelter, senior citizens Bingo,
and Kids First. In addition to her volunteer
commitments, Vickie enjoyed horseback
riding, golf, tennis and working out, finding
joy in everything she did.
Many friends of Vickie’s and her family have
generously supported this scholarship.
In memory of CPCC administrator Gay
Dr. Melvin L. Gay Jr. began working for
CPCC in 1969 as a counselor, advising
students on their career objectives and
goals. Since that time, he held a variety of
leadership roles at the College, including
associate vice president for enrollment and
student services, a role he held until his
passing on February 3, 2012, at age 67. At Dr.
Gay’s request, memorial gifts were directed
to the CPCC Foundation. The Dr. Mel
Gay Scholarship was established this year for
deserving students attending CPCC at its
Levine Campus located in Matthews, where
Dr. Gay spent the last years of his career.
During Dr. Gay’s 43-year tenure at CPCC,
he took every opportunity to demonstrate
his commitment to students, staff and
returning military veterans, making
significant contributions to their success.
His colleagues appreciated Dr. Gay’s quiet
Dr. Ruth Shaw and Dr. Tony Zeiss
leadership, calming disposition and generous
support. Dr. Gay had the ability to make
everyone around him feel as though they
could accomplish anything.
In 2013, Dr. Gay was posthumously awarded
the Order of the Long Leaf Pine, the most
prestigious award presented by the Governor
of North Carolina to individuals who have a
proven record of extraordinary service to the
state and their communities.

“Legacy and Promise” $30-million goal in sight
When Dr. Tony Zeiss became president
in 1992, he boldly proclaimed that CPCC
can be the national leader in workforce
development . . . and he has persuaded the
Charlotte-Mecklenburg community, state
and national leaders that a clear vision,
framed with a solid strategy and armed
with consistent execution, can do the job.
Quickly. Effectively.
The transformation is incredible. Students,
faculty and staff, friends and supporters
marvel at what is today one of the most
extraordinary community colleges in the
country—a place where 70,000 students
each year receive career training on six
campuses throughout Mecklenburg County.
The College’s growth couldn’t happen
without significant financial support from
generous benefactors. The College has raised
almost $25 million toward its $30-million
1
“Legacy and Promise” campaign, launched
in January 2012. The campaign is believed
to be the largest campaign ever for a
community college and is scheduled to
culminate in June 2014 when the College
celebrates its 50th anniversary of service.
Throughout this annual report you
have read about the campaign’s donors.
Collectively, these individuals, families,
corporations, foundations and many other
donors have helped CPCC with significant
resources toward the College’s “Legacy
and Promise” campaign for scholarships,
additional faculty positions, workforce
development initiatives and other programs.
These gifts help the College achieve its
goals of becoming the national leader in
workforce development and providing
generations of students with an outstanding
education and extraordinary career training
in an innovative environment with
remarkable people.
“I’m optimistic our 50th anniversary
campaign will be successful,” said Dr. Tony
Zeiss, president of CPCC. “The future of
CPCC is brighter than ever!”
We are grateful to those who hosted
a reception in their homes as a part of
CPCC’s $30-million “Legacy and Promise”
campaign.
These receptions help raise awareness
of CPCC’s campaign and the College’s
extensive offerings.

Sensoria features Ron Rash
Sensoria, CPCC’s annual celebration of
arts, brought a number of distinguished
guests to campus April 13-20. More than
85 events were held on four of the College’s
six campuses during the eight-day festival.
Guests included Ron Rash, poet, author
and winner of CPCC’s Irene B. Honeycutt
Distinguished Lecturer Award.
Students and members of the public
attended Rash’s presentations at no cost.
Rash, author of the 2008 novel and New
York Times bestseller, “Serena,” read from
his latest work, a short story collection,
“Nothing Gold Can Stay.”
Sensoria and CPCC also welcomed
inspirational poet Li-Young Lee; young
adult historical fiction writer, Alan
Armstrong; artists Amy Bagwell and Kit
Kube; Charlotte’s Jewish Film Festival;
Mothering Across Continents; Digital Film
People; and Tosco Music Party. The festival
featured the College’s Bechtler on Campus
– a symphonic concert pairing visual art and
music of the 20th and 21st centuries that
partners CPCC with the Bechtler Museum
of Modern Art; CPCC Opera Theatre’s
“Dialogues of the Carmelites;” CPCC
Theatre’s “Fences;” and an exhibit of the
Joe Bonham Project, a showcase of artwork
by seasoned combat artists, well-known
illustrators and college students who are
committed to sharing the experiences of
veterans. d
Sensoria would not be possible without the
support of donors and sponsors. CPCC
appreciates each one’s help in bringing this
event to our community:

Northwestern Mutual sponsors 18th annual skyline run
Once again, the popular CPCC Charlotte
Skyline Run generated critical funding to
provide scholarships to many deserving
students; and for the second year in a
row, Skyline’s presenting sponsor was
Northwestern Mutual.
The Bank of North Carolina and American
Apparel joined Northwestern Mutual
as two major sponsors. Dozens of other
civic-minded businesses and organizations
provided additional sponsorship support,
raising $93,916 that will be used by students
needing financial assistance to achieve their
academic and vocational goals.
20
Chaired by Kaye McGarry, the CPCC
Charlotte Skyline Run has grown to become
one of the most popular races in the region
for runners, walkers and baby joggers. Many
more enjoy the family festival atmosphere
with health and fitness activities, food, games
and dozens of door prize opportunities.
“Events like this are becoming more and
more important as the College strives
to meet the financial needs of a growing
number of students at a time when taxbased funding sources are diminishing,”said
McGarry.
Long considered one of the region’s best 5K
runs, this year’s race was even better thanks
to the amazing level of support received
from the community. Special thanks go
to the hundreds of volunteers and to the
generous sponsors who helped. Skyline Run
committee members were Kaye McGarry,
chair; Chuck Spencer and Joe Denneny,
co-race directors; Tom Bass, Adam Brooks,
Fay Foster, Sambou Kamiss, Jenn Mertz,
Mitchell Hagler, Mark Helms, Tobie
Holberton, Dick Pahle, Paul Santos, Karen
Streppa, Crystal Thomann and Melissa
Warlick.

CPCC Arts creates Sustainers Society
As CPCC’s 50th and CPCC Summer Theatre’s 40th anniversaries approached, the College’s Foundation wanted to recognize its most
faithful, generous and consistent donors of arts programs through the creation of the CPCC Arts Sustainers Society.
“Sustainers are the lifeblood and backbone of our arts programs. Without their gifts, years of loyal support, and attendance at theatre
productions, musicals, operas, exhibits, and special performances, CPCC Arts would not be the program it is today,” said Vanessa Stolen,
director of development, CPCC Foundation.
To be a member of the CPCC Arts Sustainers Society is to be a part of something special – a group of people who sees CPCC Arts as a vital
aspect of and resource for our community. Workforce development is a key focus for CPCC, and its artists and musicians in training wish to
make a living entertaining and showcasing their talents. Donations and patronage go a long way in making this possible.
The College looks forward to the special times ahead with this group as it celebrates all that CPCC Arts offers the community. d

CPCC Legacy Society
CPCC Legacy Society members have
named the CPCC Foundation as a
recipient of a planned gift. William
Claytor, chair of the Foundation’s Planned
Giving Committee, says, “CPCC describes
a planned gift as a gift received as part of
a thoughtful plan. It is a gift that often
involves two components of benefit: one
for the College and one for the donor.”
Legacy Society members have given to
CPCC in their wills or trusts, through
life insurance, a charitable gift annuity
or individual retirement account (IRA)
designation, or with a gift of real property
or other planned gift option. Legacy
members assure CPCC will remain a vital
resource in the Charlotte-Mecklenburg
region for many years to come.
To learn more about planned giving and
the Legacy Society, please contact Brenda
Lea, executive director, Institutional
Advancement, at 704.330.6869 or via
email at brenda.lea@cpcc.edu. d

Turner Family Foundation supports sustainability program
The Turner Family Foundation notified the
CPCC Foundation in October 2012 of two
gifts to support the College’s sustainability
program. A portion of the commitment will
allow the program to address equipment
needed for sustainability laboratories and
student scholarships. The remainder will be
used to establish a permanent endowment
to benefit the Program.
In 2001, the Foundation named the James
A. Turner Center for Welding Technology
at CPCC in memory of the founder of
National Welders Supply.
CPCC President Dr. Tony Zeiss said, “We
are humbled to receive such a thoughtful
gift. It will assure the College will continue
building a pipeline of workers for highdemand occupations that require welding
and sustainability skills. It is especially
meaningful to have the Turner family as an
integral part of the College.” d

A Leader in The Arts
Performing Arts Society
CPCC’s Performing Arts Program depends on the generosity of donors and on ticket sales to provide quality family entertainment at
affordable prices. The Performing Arts Society was established in 2010 to simplify the giving process for donors who are interested in
supporting the College’s three major performing arts programs – CPCC Theatre, Opera Theatre and Summer Theatre. Performing Arts
Society members can sustain all of these programs with their annual gift.
Performing Arts Society contributors also enjoy priority ticket sales and other donor benefits. For more information about the Performing
Arts Society, please contact the CPCC Foundation at 704.330.6869.
The CPCC Performing Arts Program is most grateful to the following society contributors:

Pease Auditorium benefactors
Pease Auditorium is located off Pease Lane on CPCC’s Central Campus near Center City Charlotte. Named for Colonel J. Norman
Pease, head of the architectural firm that developed the College’s first master plan and an avid supporter of CPCC during its early years,
Pease Auditorium was home to the College’s first drama productions (1970-1994).
Colonel Pease died in 1987, and the College remains grateful for his vision, leadership and guidance. It is with a historical and
appreciative nod that the College recognizes our Pease Auditorium benefactors, donors who made our 2009-10 renovation possible and
who help to maintain this piece of Charlotte history.
Today, Pease Auditorium, a beautiful, elliptical-shaped auditorium, plays host to performances for audiences of 400.
For a gift of $500 or more, seat benefactors have their names or the name of a family member or friend inscribed on a Pease Auditorium
plaque permanently displayed in the building. To become a Pease Auditorium benefactor, please contact the CPCC Foundation at
704.330.6869. d

Memorial and
Honor Gifts
Memorial and honor gifts are
a special way to thoughtfully
remember family and friends. Some
CPCC donors make a provision
for gifts to be made to the College
at their passing, or their families
make the request. Other donors
make gifts of appreciation in honor
of someone who has been a vital
part of their lives, for a birthday,
anniversary, holiday or other
notable occasion. Memorial and
honor gifts are often an especially
meaningful tribute.
