Vision 2011 Home
Dear Alumni & Friends:
Chadron State was founded by pioneers. It is their pioneering spirit that Chadron State seeks to capture as it approaches its 100th birthday.
In 2005 I was privileged to be selected as the 10th president of Chadron State College. Over the past two years the College and the Foundation have worked to develop a strategic plan for Chadron State’s second century of service to Nebraska and the Nation.
This plan has resulted in Chadron State’s first ever comprehensive campaign designated “The Vision 2011 Campaign.” Our goal over five years is to secure gifts and pledges from alumni and friends, government, businesses and foundations to help with three goals: capital funds, endowment funds and annual funds.
As Chadron State approaches its centennial celebration in 2011, the help of alumni and friends cannot be overstated. While enrollment remains steady, state and federal support as part of the annual operating budget continues on a 30 year decline. For Chadron State College to build on its history of success it must have new resources to build for future success.
In the spirit of our pioneering founders, I ask for your time, energy and generosity. With your unselfish participation, the Vision 2011 Campaign will raise charitable gifts, increase the profile of the College across the Nation and involve more people in the life of our great College.
Sincerely,
Janie C. Park, Ph.D.
President
