Honor Roll of Donors
a message from the
Chairman of the Board
Dear Friends,
Michael L. Pate
Chairman of the Board
What a pleasure it is to introduce the third issue of our annual report,
Momentum. I hope you will enjoy looking back at highlights of the year
just completed and reading the vignettes of some of the great people who
personify Schreiner University.
As chairman, I really enjoy working with President Tim Summerlin.
His leadership is defined not only by a congenial personality and
immense energy, but also by his skill at building a team with a distinct
and shared vision. He works well with the senior administration, the
board of trustees, faculty, staff, the local community and—most
importantly—our students.
I think we are in a unique time in the history of Schreiner where we
are close to accomplishing several of our goals: a student body of 1,200
students, an increasing endowment, a physical plant that is necessary to
attract our students and provide them what they need to be successful.
We could not do any of these things without you, our donors! Thank
you for being partners in this exciting and important work!
Sincerely,
Michael Pate ’71, Washington, D.C.

Beautifying the Campus
South-Texas Style
“Everybody needs beauty as well
as bread, places to play in and
places to pray in, where nature
may heal and cheer and give
strength to body and soul.”
— John Muir
P
resident Tim Summerlin
has a tr adition he tries
to observe every year. That
is, he likes to greet students each fall with
a visible campus improvement completed
during the summer. And, thanks to the
continued generosity and encouragement of
Donna and Royce (’49) Faulkner, this year’s
improvement is a major transformation,
principally accomplished over the summer.
Ravaged by the South Texas drought,
the spacious area in the center of campus,
“the Quad” has resembled an abandoned
soccer field in recent years, but no
longer. It is now a welcoming outdoor
sanctuary envisioned three years ago after
months of study and discussion with
Terra Design Group of San Antonio.
Representatives of faculty, staff, students,
alumni and townspeople all contributed
suggestions for improving the campus
ambience. High on the list was pedestrian
circulation and Dr. David Smith, dean
of the Cailloux School of Professional
Studies, contributed concepts he derived
from studying students’ walking patterns
in the area. The group also suggested
landscaping and lighting that could provide
a sense of unity that might become the
“Schreiner style” motif throughout the
campus, completed one zone at a time.
The project needed, however, to honor a
long-standing tradition from the Schreiner
Institute days. When Schreiner was a
military school, rule-breakers could work
off their demerits by marching the threeacre “Bull Ring.” Hardly a former student
returns to campus without mentioning
the Bull Ring, and school officials did not
want the legend to be forgotten even if the
dusty grounds could become a shady park.

beds and trees. Faulkner Plaza also provides outdoor
Internet access, a must in public areas today.
Summerlin is pleased with the results.
“A part of the campus rich in history is now rich
aesthetically and functionally as a place of easy
transit and natural gathering locations,” he said.
Local contractor Zack Derese of Kerrville Landscaping
and project manager Alonzo Navarro worked on
the design all spring and started construction the
minute students left for summer. Beauty, efficiency
and conservation were foremost priorities. With a
little fear, they accepted the mandate that the entire
project—from subsurface drip irrigation to plantings
to lighting—be completed by August 1, no easy feat.
The Donna and Royce Faulkner Plaza at the Quad
includes wide, meandering sidewalks of stamped
and stained concrete, flagstone patios, brick and
rock seating walls, pergolas, LED lighting, natural
pathways with boulder seating, drip irrigation, shrub
A modern dormitory near the campus entry
bears the Faulkner name, but for years the Austin
couple has assisted with essential needs less visible,
as well—from scholarships and gifts for general
operations to a variety of deferred maintenance and
beautification projects throughout the campus.
As visitors amble through the grounds, they
will find a limestone ledge honoring the Faulkner
family’s generous commitment and a bronze plaque
telling the legend of the Bull Ring. The central
pergola includes a paving stone honoring a gift
from the Student Senate, and a large University seal
is set in the floor. Nearby, a paving stone names
the first 12 men who graduated from Schreiner in
1926…some of whom, no doubt, learned patience
and perspective walking the Bull Ring. n

outside the classroom.”
“It makes the campus seem softer
and gives our students cool places

A Beautiful Campus
O
ne hopes that disaster will
never strike Schreiner
University, but Campus
Security is ready to respond if
such misfortune occurs. From natural
disasters to terrorist threats, college campuses today
must know how to respond and do so quickly.
According to director of security Danny Flores,
the campus is set up to respond immediately—
from activating a campus lock-down to providing
tornado shelters. Handicap evacuation plans include
designated exit routes in multi-story buildings, and
an all-campus electronic alert system automatically
activates on every university-owned computer. Also,
a live audio system is ready to provide specific
instructions if the community is under threat.
“We have trained an emergency response team and
have preparedness plans with the Kerrville Police
is a Safe Campus
Department and the Department of Homeland
Security,” said security supervisor Michael Friederich.
“All members of our Command Center and
Emergency Response Teams have completed FEMA
(Federal Emergency Response Team) classes, as well.”
Flores hopes the best defense is a good offense
and no disaster of any kind will hurt Schreiner. “But
we are prepared. We have a rapid response trailer
ready to go at all times,” adds Flores. “We also have a
behavioral assessment team and protocol to identify
possible threatening behavior in the rare event that
a student, staff person or visitor manifests dangerous
behavior. But let’s hope that never ever happens.” n

$11 million Athletic & Event Center
Approaching Final Fund-Raising
J.E. and L.E. Mabee Foundation of Tulsa
Issues $1 Million Challenge Grant

ark Tuschak, vice president for advancement and
public affairs, is thrilled that Schreiner’s friends
in Tulsa said “yes.” He’s also aware that turning a positive
response into a completed building still requires a lot of work and a lot of generous
support from Schreiner’s friends, old and new.
“The J.E. and L.E. Mabee Foundation of Tulsa, OK, has extended a milliondollar challenge grant for the construction portion if and only if Schreiner’s other
friends contribute substantial new money,” Tuschak explains. “We are excited to
have received the challenge in July and are eager to beat Mabee’s one year deadline
to match their gift with new contributions of $2.7 million—a challenging task.”
Tuschak happily announces that positive word from Mabee immediately generated
one gift of $1 million, leaving $1.7 yet to raise for construction. Mabee Foundation
officers are prepared to mail their million-dollar check as soon as they receive
notice that the remaining funds have been raised, but they do not permit any
construction to begin in the interim. When the challenge is met, SU will have
$7.3 million for construction and be close to readiness to turn the first spade.
Endowment and non-construction line items bring the project total to $11,063,405.

Athletes are Ambassadors
on the road and energizers at home
To complement the Mountaineer Fitness Center
that opened in 2009, this 35,000 square foot
Athletic & Event Center will make a substantial
impact both for student athletes and campus life.
Equally important, the new facility will enable
Schreiner to have full standing in the prestigious
athletic conference SU has just entered.
According to Ron Macosko, athletic director,
many consider the Southern Collegiate Athletic
Conference the premier NCAA Division III
conference in the West. It includes Trinity,
Southwestern, Austin College, University of Dallas,
Texas Lutheran, Colorado College and Centenary.
“SCAC officials have said that SU will not be
considered for conference basketball tournaments
until facilities are seriously upgraded,” Macosko said.
In addition, Edington Center, the existing gym,
was built 35 years ago for a campus community of
less than half Schreiner’s current size. Providing
practice space for more than 300 athletes at any
given time places an enormous strain on the existing
space. Practice schedules often start at 6 a.m. for
team sports, and intramural practices typically take
place from 9 to 11 p.m. to accommodate everyone.
Though team sports are seasonal, athletes train
continuously. Softball, baseball and soccer teams
often practice inside in early spring and late fall when
the weather no longer permits outdoor practice. n

Claiming Meaningful
Lives and Purposeful Work
“Reaching
for the stars”
A
May ’13 gr ad, Colby Adolph moved to
Indiana last summer and started her
next chapter toward pursuing an
ambitious career in the sciences. Backed by
full financial support from Purdue University, Colby
worked, for the summer, in an analytical/organic
chemistry lab and will continue teaching undergrads
throughout her own academic trek.
Her goal? To earn a doctorate in chemistry and secure
a position as a synthetic organic chemist in a major
company such as Pfizer or Eli Lilly.
While she is realistic about the challenges that await
her, setting high goals is nothing new for Colby. She
arrived at SU in 2009 determined to be the first in her
family to graduate from college. Not only did she earn
her B.S. in Biochemistry, Colby won the coveted Elmore
Whitehurst Award for Excellence in Learning. She was
also a star athlete all four years, gave campus tours in
Spanish and English, and worked as an intern in the
pharmacy of the Kerrville State Hospital.
At Purdue, she will balance study, research and
teaching until she is ready to declare a specialty for her
doctoral thesis. In four or five years, Colby will defend
her dissertation, presenting it “to a group of professors
who will decide whether my work is worthy of a degree.”
The Houston native is grateful for the experiences that
have brought her this far.
“The opportunity I have to pursue a Ph.D. in
chemistry is a dream come true. I greatly appreciate my
Schreiner academic advisor, Dr. Kiley Miller, and an
amazing Schreiner professor, Dr. Danette Vines, for
pushing me to look into graduate studies and to reach for
the stars with my goals. Their coupled efforts and
Schreiner’s four years of support have always encouraged
me to go beyond what’s expected and never to limit
myself. In Kerrville, I discovered a deep love of learning.
Everyone—from teachers in all disciplines to coaches to
deans—inspired me during my time at Schreiner.
“And—while my major was in the sciences—what I
learned and experienced at SU went well beyond the
periodic table.” n

claim high goals
M
y father once told me that
a goal without a plan is a
wish,” said Manny Longoria
as he discusses his past, present
and future. The scholar athlete came to
Schreiner to play basketball and to pursue a
rigorous academic plan that eventually will lead to
his career dream of becoming a corporate
accountant. Manny won the San Antonio CPA
Chapter’s Accounting Excellence Award last May
and started his MBA at UT El Paso this fall. He
will then take the CPA exam.
“
Longoria credits Schreiner with helping him
move out of his comfort zone.
“One thing that I never actually thought I’d learn
was the ability to interact and communicate easily
with people. I did more of that at SU than
I have my whole life. Schreiner is definitely unlike
any other school.”
Retired accounting professor Peter Huey “helped
me remember that complexity is part of life. At times
it was very difficult to balance school and basketball,
especially when our team competed on the road. Mr.
Huey was always telling us not to get stressed and
overwhelmed—just to embrace our challenges and
thank God for them. So that is what I tried to do”
“
Jamie Burns
Manny Longoria
Looking back at his Schreiner chapter, Manny
says he always held himself accountable for his
performance in the classroom and on the court.
He believes he inherited the attributes necessary for
success: “hard work, optimism, resiliency and the
ability to pay attention to details.” n
W
hen I started looking at prospective
colleges, I was bombarded by options.
I knew I wanted to play volleyball, and my high school
coach suggested Schreiner University. When my parents and I made
the campus tour, I knew that this was the school for me. Because I
came from a small high school, I really liked the idea of the small
class sizes, and the fact that I might actually get to know my classmates
and professors.
“But now, as I think about graduation, I realize that I have received
so much more than that. Everyone offers the best experience possible—
from the teachers, the financial aid office, the administration, other
students. And at how many schools can you pass by the President of
the university and have him not only know who you are, but also have
a nice conversation? This is a very special place, and I am so grateful
that I have had the chance to experience it.”
Before she graduates in 2014, Jamie is completing an internship
experience in out-patient therapy at Guadalupe Regional Hospital in
Seguin. She hopes to be accepted into physical therapy school right
after graduation. n

Dr. David Smith (pictured to

Diana Comuzzie (center) and Dr.
William Woods (far right) share
McCormick’s position that higher
education is in a pivotal time.
(Many in our nation assert, in fact,
that traditional higher educational
delivery systems are ineffective and
cannot justify their cost anymore.)
“If higher education is facing a
pivotal time then we must pivot,”
McCormick said. “We must plant
one foot in the values that have
made Schreiner a cherished place
for 90 years. At the same time, we
must use the other foot to step out
boldly into an amazing universe of
teaching and learning opportunities.”
McCormick’s face lights up
when he describes all of the ways
Schreiner can create learning
Not a word one normally uses every day, provost finds its home in
academic settings. At Columbia University, the provost was chief academic
officer as early as 1811 (30 years before Texas even had a college). At
Schreiner, Charlie McCormick not only supervises the work of the three
academic deans, but also the dean of students, registrar, campus minister,
institutional research officer and the associate vice president for academic
affairs and student success. From residence life to the library to study
abroad, McCormick is discerning, encouraging, assessing.
“By living in community, Schreiner students
are learning to listen, share, articulate,
reflect, take risks and exercise initiative.”
— Dr. Charlie McCormick
Mission Statement:
Schreiner University, a liberal arts institution affiliated
by choice and covenant with the Presbyterian Church
(U.S.A.), is committed to educating students holistically.
Primarily undergraduate, the university offers a
personalized, integrated education that prepares its
students for meaningful work and purposeful lives in
a changing global society.
environments that equip graduates
to fulfill Schreiner’s mission.
Preparing students today moves
far beyond the traditional classroom
setting, where an expert professes in
a lecture format. In fact, the role of
the professoriate undergoes almost
daily change, responding to a world
that recreates itself with lightning
speed. Schreiner’s students can
already take Mandarin Chinese, for
example, through a distance learning
connection with Concordia College
in Austin. They can share a science
or humanities research project
with mentors across the globe and
engage in case studies about business
ethics with their counterparts at
other universities. And—thanks to
technology—students can do these
things in real time, instantly.
A liberal arts college teacher
today, suggests McCormick, is
more like a life coach—starting a
relationship with students from
the summer before they arrive
on campus and maintaining an
encouraging and assisting role even
as graduates enter the job market
or enroll in graduate school.
“Our faculty is learning to see itself
as a group of enthusiastic mentors
who walk alongside their students
in a variety of learning settings, who
help them discern and own their
futures, who help them connect
and synthesize otherwise disparate
skills, knowledge, and dispositions,
and who are totally committed to
their success,” McCormick said.
Using Educational
Psychology
Creating environments for exciting
and abundant learning means
understanding how the current
generation of young people learns.
Today’s students are technologically
savvy long before they arrive on
campus but they may not have
given much thought to how
they want to invest themselves
in purposeful work and life
beyond work. They are whizzes
on computers and smart phones
but may bring limited experience
working with people from differing
backgrounds and world views.
Having faculty advisors who help
students assess where their talents
intersect the world’s needs gives
direction to their studies from
the first day students begin their
freshmen coursework. They learn
they are building a college resumé
that reflects more than mastering
course content. By living in
community, Schreiner students are
learning to listen, share, articulate,
reflect, take risks and exercise
initiative. McCormick said it is a
pleasure to talk with graduating
seniors who can articulate how
they have experienced Schreiner’s
motto: “Learning by Heart.”
In addition, all who work at
Schreiner are a part of the teachinglearning team, said McCormick.
Personnel in student services and
career counseling share the vision
of helping students understand
themselves, their community and
the needs of the larger world.

Busing Leads Campus
Assessment Efforts
I
like leading our institutional
effectiveness pr actices,” said
Dr. Kyle Busing. While the assistant
professor of exercise science and sport management
came to SU to use his love of teaching, Busing
now splits his time between helping students and
helping his colleagues throughout the campus.
“Our goal is to make sure Schreiner is providing
the services we believe we are providing.”
“Like other good schools, Schreiner wants to have
consistent methods for assessing our effectiveness
throughout the campus—in classrooms and offices,
in laboratories and dormitories,” said Busing.
The Colorado native has extra reason to be happy
this fall. After completing her doctorate, his wife,
Dr. Carrie West, has joined SU as a full-time
faculty member in communications studies. n
“
“Assessing institutional effectiveness is logical
and I like logic,” he said. “It’s fun to help people
see how consistent self-evaluation and reflection
can help them improve in their own jobs and help
Schreiner improve every year, too,” Busing said.

and Purposeful Work
chreiner is one of 33 universities in the
nation to win a prestigious Lilly Endowment
gr ant to participate in NetVUE, the
Network for Vocation in Undergr aduate
Education. The purpose of NetVUE is to foster the intellectual
and theological exploration of vocation in campus communities.
In other words, NetVUE assists in helping students sharpen their
zeal to make a difference in the world when they graduate. Six
universities in Texas are participating, including Baylor and Trinity.
According to The Rev. Gini Norris-Lane, campus minister,
Schreiner is using the grant funds to expand vocational exploration

What new academic ventures does
McCormick see on the horizon?
Responding to the nation’s needs,
Schreiner is considering more healthrelated degrees (see page 21).
Frequently discussed is a completion
program for registered nurses to earn
Bachelor of Science degrees. It is
even possible that a Master of Arts in
public health might develop.
After completing a pilot research
project with senior citizen volunteers,
faculty from exercise science and
nursing are exploring gerontology as a
fertile opportunity for study and
research. Likewise, the liberal arts and
professional studies faculty are
considering a degree in arts
management. And, with so many
Texas music organizations and
festivals nearby, a master of fine arts
degree in song writing may develop in
the future.
Global Awareness
Academic leaders also are taking
seriously Schreiner’s commitment
to provide students with global
awareness. Summer study abroad
opportunities have long been a
Schreiner staple. For instance,
a group of students and faculty
traveled to Florence, Italy—
studying courses from Renaissance
Art to The European Union.
Likewise, nursing director Dr. Lena
Rippstein led a service learning
class to Costa Rica last summer.
Under exploration are formal
agreements for exchange campuses
where students spend a semester
or a year immersing themselves
culturally and intellectually.
Hannam University, a highly-ranked
Presbyterian college in Daejeon,
South Korea, may be the first
exchange site, and the busy academic
leader is working on others, as well.
Schreiner is still one of the
nation’s youngest baccalaureate
colleges, having graduated its first
seniors in 1984. At the same time,
Schreiner will celebrate its 100th
birthday in 2023. Does McCormick
know what the academic program
will look like 10 years from now?
“Not entirely,” he said. “I do know
many in our state and nation will
recognize the Hill Country as the
proud home of a premier place of
learning… one that is brave and
adventurous enough to change
and improve every year and that
makes good on its promise to
prepare students for meaningful
work and purposeful lives in a
changing global society.” n

T
he national Association of
Schools of Public Health
(ASPH) predicts 250,000 more
public health workers will be
needed by 2020—just seven years
away. This shortage is due in part to the
anticipated retirement of 23 percent of the
current work force-about 110,000 workers.
This means schools of public health will have
to train three times the current number of
graduates this decade.
The effects of toxic wastes, environmental
pollutants and unsafe water are only partially
responsible for the acute need. In the United
States, at least, unbalanced diets, inadequate
exercise and substance abuse also contribute
heavily to the the nation’s health crisis.
Texas only has two public health programs in
development, so Schreiner has received strong
encouragement to request approval from our
accrediting agency, Southern Association for
College and Schools. Dr. Ruth Grubesic of
SU’s nursing faculty has a doctorate in public
health and is working with an interdisciplinary
team to create an effective degree.
Schreiner will learn if the program has
received accreditation by the end of the fall
semester, 2013. When approved, Schreiner
will be in the forefront of the public health
movement with a degree that complements
our existing programs and extends our reach
in the field. n

Schreiner Grows MBA’S?
You bet!
“Tony has always possessed great people skills, and now with
his work in the Schreiner MBA program, he approaches
issues with a greater understanding of the big picture!”
– Mike Allen, President
Union State Bank
T
ony Parinello, vice president and
cashier at Kerrville’s Union State
Bank, had considered graduate
school for a long time. When SU was ready to
Mike Allen and Tony Parinello
22
launch its Master of Business Administration degree,
Tony was first in line. And—two years and a lot of work
later—he is a member of the charter class of MBA grads.
“When Tammy and I had our little girl, Taryn, in
2011, I realized life was only going to get busier. If ever
I was going to accomplish this goal, I better start!” said
the happy family man. “My wife and my boss, Mike
Allen, gave me their full support, knowing that this
new commitment would be challenging for all of us.”
Tony appreciated the faculty’s genuine concern and the
open atmosphere that existed among his professors and
classmates. He enjoyed using his work experience to shed
light on his studies and vice versa. He found the classes in
accounting, ethics and communications especially helpful.
The banker credits his MBA studies with other lasting
benefits, as well.
“I would say the program definitely helped build
my confidence. I feel that my decision- making
processes have become more dynamic and wellrounded. All of us in the class grew in self-awareness
and understanding, with more clarity about our own
tendencies and habits,” he said. In addition, the new
MBA believes he developed lifelong friendships.
Some of Tony’s most important lessons, however,
probably came from taking on the obligation
rather than from the courses themselves.
“I sure did learn a lot about time management and
setting priorities!” he said, thankful the two-year journey
is behind him.
Would Tony recommend the program to others?
“It was one of the hardest things I have ever
attempted,” Parinello said. “But if others ask me whether
they should consider SU’s MBA, I would tell them to
go for it! There will always be something to get in the
way, but there is no better time than the present!” n

looked at several music degree
programs in the greater San Antonio
area before choosing Schreiner, said
Mark Nugent. “I also did a very detailed cost analysis,
“
and to my surprise SU turned out to be the least
expensive for a commuter student like myself—even when
I compared Schreiner to state schools in the region.
“My education at Schreiner University is working out
well. I appreciate the faculty, who get involved with the
community and that means a lot to me. The curriculum
is well rounded and I particularly enjoy the one-on-one
relationship I have with my instructors. As a result of
my involvement here, I have more exposure to the
professional music community in the area and see more
opportunities to do so in the future. As an older adult,
I find the young traditional students to be very engaging
and accepting of me as one of their peers.
graduation nearing
“After I graduate, I intend to audition for other regional
symphonies in Texas and grow my private cello teaching
studio. I want to be more active with professional chamber
music performances, as well. I have already been asked to
join the board of directors of a local music group and I
hope to be active in some area amateur music groups as a
conductor and artistic director.
“Retirement and an education are what you make
them and it’s never too late to be whatever you want to
be! You just have to try and pick the right academic
setting to make that goal a reality. Schreiner University
IS that place for me.”
Mark Nugent plans to graduate with a degree in music in
2014. He was a Chicago-area policeman and in the financial
services industry in his “previous” lives. A gifted cellist, Mark
is a regular with the Symphony of the Hills and the volunteer
leader and coach of the Schreiner String Quartet. n

embarked on
a new and satisfying educational
adventure last spring
when business professor and
international businessman
Warren Ferguson teamed up
with regional development officer Sue Steele to launch the
Schreiner Study Club. The
kind folks at Hunt Methodist Church and other good
friends in West Kerr County helped with the logistics
for two continuing ed courses that took place in the
church’s fellowship hall.
What are those guys thinking?
Ferguson taught two multi-week courses, the first as a
geopolitical update focusing on Mexico, China and the
United States. The second series extended international
studies with “Understanding a Rapidly Changing
Culture.” His courses were so well received that Warren
will facilitate another short course beginning next March.
“Who Is Most Likely To Rule the World: Global
Geopolitics Today and Tomorrow” will begin at Hunt
United Methodist Church on Feb. 19.
What is
an ideal
society?
This fall, English professor
and liberal arts dean, Dr.
William Woods, offered
“Utopian and Dystopian
Literature and Film.” These
morning classes took place at
Hunt Methodist, October 1, 8,
15 and 22. Dr. Woods commented that as long as
philosophers and poets have put word to paper, they
have debated the notion of the truly fair and just
community. When do individual rights outweigh the
rights of citizens? How will the ideal society be
governed? Through classic and modern literature and
cinema, the class explored those themes.
As an added treat, “Movie at the Mansion” was
offered class participants a showing of Ridley Scott’s
masterpiece of a dystopian society on October 10.
Woods showed and discussed Bladerunner, and the
novel which inspired the film, Do Androids Dream of
Electric Sheep? n

Schreiner ranks in top 200
For Financial Fitness Among Independent Colleges
Schreiner ranked 155 out of 925 independent universities in the money
magazine’s August issue.
Criteria for assessing America’s private universities included balance sheet
health, instructional investments per full-time student, and return on assets.
Schreiner earned a “B,” with a number grade point of 3.3—slightly higher
than McMurry University in Abilene and Queens College of Charlotte, N.C.
First on the list was…can you guess? Princeton, with Rice weighing in at
12th. (Both received A+ report cards.)

Thanks for a Great Year!
T
hanks to our donors, Schreiner
enjoyed a banner year in fundraising in the fiscal year which
finished May 31. Counting current and planned
gifts, Schreiner’s friends pledged $15,494,979!
Schreiner’s board of trustees and their families led
the way with generous support in the first year of the
“Fulfilling the Promise” comprehensive campaign.
Gifts for operations—predominantly to support student
financial aid—totaled $1,405.011. Largest contributor to
this good result was the Hill Country College Fund,
providing tuition grants for students in Kerr and
contiguous counties.
The largest piece of the fund-raising pie came from
planned gift pledges, principally for long-term endowment.
These surpassed $10 million, including bequests with
a named value and other deferred vehicles—such as
insurance policies, charitable trusts and charitable gift
annuities. While some of these life income gifts have
specified terms, most planned gifts will be realized
after a donor’s death. Nevertheless, they give the
administration enormous confidence in Schreiner’s future.
Schreiner booked close to 2,000 gifts for all purposes.
These included support for the Athletic and Event Center
(see page 10), campus landscaping (see pages 4-7), current
and endowed program support and technology. These gifts
represent a 78 percent increase over the previous year!
We thank every person—faculty and staff, former
students, parents, neighbors, trustees, businesses and
charitable foundations—for a satisfying year! n
So Much Fun the
First Time…
Local realtor Harold Crocker is now
in his second year as Hill Country
College Fund chairman—a very

to $600,000 for this year.

a message from the
President
Fall 2013
Dear Friends,
You cannot spend any time on
the Schreiner campus without
sensing the momentum which gives
this report its title. It is evident in
physical changes, in the presence of
new faces among faculty and staff,
and in the vitality of a growing
group of students. Yes, it is even
present in the expectancy one
encounters in discussions of new
programs or uses for technology.
In all of these expressions
of the university’s energy, I see
evidence of you, the donors who
are so essential to Schreiner.
• In that growing student body,
we recognize your generous
scholarship support.
• In new or renovated facilities
and landscaping improvements,
your hand is present.
• In the capacity to deliver
German classes to our
students and those of other
colleges simultaneously, you
make yourselves known,
as well as in our ability to
attract bright new faculty.
To paraphrase the old ballad,
“I’ll be seeing you in all… the ways
that Schreiner makes progress
toward its commitment to being a
premier place of learning.” And I
will be full of gratitude as well.
All the best,
Mary Ellen and Tim Summerlin,
Schreiner’s “First Family,” enjoy R&R in their back yard.

A Lively “Oak”
“
W
e moved to Kerrville in 1984
and Schreiner captured
our attention right away,”
said Clyde Day. “My late wife, Rachel, and I
attended the baccalaureate service for Schreiner’s first
four-year graduates and I don’t think I have ever
missed one year.
“Right now, I am grateful that my granddaughter,
Rachel Day, is a Schreiner student. I am awed
watching how she is maturing and gaining confidence,
thanks to this school’s atmosphere and philosophy.
“We have been members of the Schreiner Oaks
Society for decades! Rachel and I have used charitable
gift annuities from the Texas Presbyterian Foundation
to create a win/win plan. We have received life income
and Schreiner and other important organizations have
the knowledge that they will receive some assistance
from us when we are both gone. Since I am 93, I guess
they have learned to be patient.” n

praises Schreiner
Clyde Day, owner of Clyde’s Clocks in Kerrville,
stays busy every day helping people in the Hill
Country maintain their prized clocks. In addition
to his planned gift, Day enjoys supporting the
nursing program and thinks it is “an excellent
example of the city and the college engaged
in a mutually supportive relationship.”

From Schreiner
to a high calling
“After graduating from Schreiner in
2006, I spent two years as a young adult
volunteer through the Presbyterian
Church (USA). I felt my first call to
ministry when I was sent to serve as a
hospital chaplain in New Orleans. That
sense of calling became even more clear
when I worked my second year in a
hunger relief organization in Denver.
I am now happily beginning my
second year at Union Presbyterian
Seminary in Richmond, VA. And expect
to earn a master of divinity and a master
of Christian Education. My time at
Schreiner taught me time management
study skills that have been invaluable in
grad school. In addition, I was blessed
last summer to work at MoRanch
Conference Center as a camp chaplain.
I hope to become a youth pastor in Texas
after I graduate in 2016.”

Connecting to our
Alsatian Roots
Alsatian André Hagel welcomed Dr. Mayfield to his city.
S
chreiner alumnus and trustee
Demmie Mayfield, ’50 represented
our Hill Country learning
community across the ocean last
summer…right back to Charles
Armand Schreiner’s birthplace.
Schreiner’s founder was born in 1838 in Riquewihr,
France, the fourth of five children, to Dr. Gustave
Adolph and Charlotte (Bippert) Schreiner. Immigrating to San Antonio while still a teenager, Schreiner
never returned to his homeland.
Amazing as it is, the city of his birth knows of
him and of the little college he dreamed of starting
in his new home. When Dr. Mayfield traveled there
last summer, he met André Hugel, director of the
Riquewihr Historical Society, and Hugel knew that a
small college in Texas bore the name of their Alsatian
ancestor. He knew exactly where the Schreiner
family had lived in their village, in fact. Hugel also
reported that his own son had even visited the
campus when he toured America a few years ago.
As the two men chatted, Dr. Mayfield stumbled
upon another intriguing fact. Hugel himself was 15
years old when he witnessed this terrifying event.
During World War II, the U.S. Army successfully
repelled a vicious German invasion just before the
36
war ended in December, 1944. Who were those
brave soldiers? None other than the Second
Battalion, 141st Infantry Regiment—called the 36th
Texas Military Division.
So this is what our own investigative reporter now
wants to know. Were there any “Schreiner boys” in
the Texas Division? One place to begin looking is in
Schreiner’s new war memorial in The Commons. But
there might be others who did not lose their lives
and returned to Texas to live as the greatest
generation. Who might know them?
Mayfield is hoping some history buffs at Schreiner
will find the answers. n

Schreiner Appreciates
Tribute Gifts
S
chreiner appreciates gifts made
as tributes or as memorial
recognition. In most instances, these
gifts support general scholarships—always Schreiner’s
greatest need. However, we also welcome gifts for other
purposes: an academic or co-curricular program, the
library, campus ministry, buildings and grounds, general
endowment, etc.
The families of those being remembered receive a
tasteful card that informs them of the gift and its
purpose. Donation amounts are not disclosed. n
If you would like more information about memorial
or tribute giving, please call 830-792-7430.

The King and I
“Art is science made clear.”
— Wilson Mizne
American Playwright
A
couple of Schreiner’s scientists
and their families certainly
contributed to the dr amatic
arts life of the Hill Country last
summer. Staged at the Kathleen C. Cailloux City
Center for the Performing Arts, “The King and I”
entertained enthusiastic audiences and earned high
praise. Singing and dancing, biology assistant
professor Dr. Chris Distel in the title role, but he
was not the only Schreiner person who made the
show a hit.
Distel’s wife, Sarah, coached the large cadre of
children and all three of their kids took part. Distel’s
colleague, Dr. Kiley Miller, chemistry associate
42
professor, and his entire family also brought their
enthusiasm and gifts to the cast. Schreiner’s director
of choral music, Michael Kahl, served as music
director and recruited several adjunct faculty to fill
the orchestra. n
Pictured are: Front row, from left: Michael Kahl, Kiley
Miller, Dylan Miller, Tish Miller, Sarah Distel, Sophie
Distel, Heather Cunningham, Jeff Cunningham, George
Eychner. Back Row, Left to Right: Jim Abiettello,
Bonnie Rocky, Beth Cunningham, Lucy Cunningham,
Nora Distel, Chris Distel, Phoenix Miller, Bhodey Miller,
Theo Distel, Brad Lee, Pat Lee and Jessica Lee.
J
ewelry designer Jill Reno Smetek thought
she would earn her M.B.A. and then become
an attorney. However, during college Jill learned the
importance of following one’s passion, and she became an artist
instead… an artist with a solid business background.
Today Smetek travels the globe in pursuit of interesting gemstones
for her works of art and celebrities and people around the world
wear her custom jewelry.
“At Schreiner I learned the importance of giving back,” she said.
“Now 10 percent of all revenues that the Jill Reno Collection makes
goes directly to feeding the poor and taking care of orphans,” said
Smetek—granddaughter of the famed Western sculptor, Jim Reno.
The business administration major from Kerrville also learned
invaluable marketing and business skills and to think outside the box.
“I cannot tell you how many times I relied on my Schreiner education
to make wise business decisions,” said the young entrepreneur. n

Back Cover: The first time new Schreiner Mountaineers are invited to leave
their mark on Schreiner it’s symbolic. During Mountaineer Days, they have their “paws”
painted and make a print. However, as they progress academically, spiritually and
physically, that invitation takes on deeper meaning as they consider how they will leave
their alma mater better than they found it.
