Letter from the Chancellor

Welcome to our 2010 Annual Report. this has been another historic year for Antioch university in a series of transformations since 2008. In 2009, we built and convened campus Boards of trustees. this past year, we have launched additional initiatives to bring our academic offerings into greater focus, we have introduced new programs across several campuses, and continue to streamline our administration for the greater good of our students and the campuses they attend.

these changes and innovations are par for the course here at Antioch university. Our mission is rooted in a historic commitment to experimentation and innovation in the delivery of transformational education. Antioch university exists to develop students and graduates who grow in their commitment to improving the human condition. In this regard, you’ll read about some of our new programs and accomplishments around Sustainability. You’ll also note our continued commitment to Social Justice through several campus programs.

through responsible leadership, Antiochians foster productive, democratic change in the institutions and communities in which they live and work. Indeed, our programs do more than teach subject matter expertise. Our faculty is committed to whole person education – from the classroom experience itself to a holistic view of how we apply our knowledge in a global society. Antioch encourages students to integrate work and study, to incorporate experience with academic study and reflection, and to address issues within a social and political context.

On behalf of our Board of Governors, I am proud to present this year’s Annual Report – our people and programs are a testament to the very best of what Antioch university aspires to be and delivers to the world.

TuLLisse (Toni) A. MurdoCk ChAnCeLLor

At the close of 2008, the Antioch university board of Trustees voted to approve new bylaws, creating an entirely new governance structure for the university and its constituent campuses. This action culminated nearly two years of study and analysis, launching an exciting new future for Antioch university.

The current Trustees adopted two new sets of bylaws for the university: one set was for the new boards of Trustees that would be created for each individual campus, to govern and oversee the work of each campus; and another set created a new board of governors for the university as a whole, to approve the work of the campus boards of Trustees and set overall policy for the university.

in this new structure, the local boards of Trustees became the operating boards, and the university board of governors is free to lead as a strategic board while maintaining ultimate fiduciary responsibility for all university assets.

in doing so, we created a structure that has resulted in more effective governance of a single, coherent and integrated university. Antioch university’s five campuses are located in geographically dispersed locations each with its own constituencies, needs, and aspirations that will enable them and the university as a whole to be more efficient, effective, entrepreneurial, competitive, and responsive to new opportunities.

Always known for innovation in higher education, Antioch continues its storied tradition with the implementation of this unprecedented governance structure. We are a stronger and more vibrant institution today with this local network of notable advocates in place who comprise each campus' board of Trustees.

Antioch’s commitment to bold innovation will continue forward with us; it is in our dnA and at the very core of our institution.

Arthur J. Zucker Chair, board of governors, Antioch university

CoMMiTMenT To The CoMMon goodStudents logged over 126,300 hours of community service in 2009, with similar numbers the year before. In 2009, AuNE was awarded the President’s Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll with Distinction, the highest federal recognition for a commitment to volunteering, service learning, and civic engagement. the award resulted from faculty and student efforts on four projects: the Antioch Psychological Services Center, an outpatient counseling/mental health center that provides diagnostic and therapeutic services to at-risk youth; Cool Monadnock, a three-year project to introduce a model for reducing greenhouse gases in the region; the Monadnock Ecological Research and Education project, an ongoing venture that includes research, monitoring, and educational outreach on Mount Monadnock; and the

2009 Monadnock Earth Festival, a week-long celebration of environment and community.

rooTed in exPerienCeAuNE focuses on practice-based learning. Students in all nine master’s degree programs and three doctoral programs must complete as many as 600 hours of practical experience related to their fields.

A diverse CoMMuniTyAuNE draws students from around the united States and across the globe, including Israel, Africa, Canada, Haiti, China, India, England, and elsewhere. An institution that is continually expanding its world view, AuNE educates students with all types of backgrounds and opinions to become leaders of change.

Committed to sustainability, social justice and innovative academic excellence, Antioch university new england (Aune) helps students integrate practice with theory. All of Aune’s graduate programs in education, environmental studies, psychology and management require that students put their classroom-based learning to work

solving real-world problems. founded in 1964, Aune provides certificate, master’s and doctoral programs for approximately 1,000 students.

seAsoned And ATTenTive fACuLTyDr. George tremblay and Dr. Jim Fauth, of the Center for Research on Psychological Practice received a three-year, $225,000 contract from the New Hampshire Chapter of the National Alliance on Mental Illness to evaluate a new statewide suicide prevention program. the Center, which concentrates on new and emerging aspects of clinical psychology, focuses on practice-based participatory mental health research collaborations with agencies and caregivers throughout the region, including underserved populations.

Faculty member tom Wessels, MA, founding director of the Master’s degree program in Conservation Biology, has been an ecologist and educator for more than 30 years. Wessels is the author of The Myth of Progress: Toward a Sustainable Future, Reading the Forested Landscape, and other successful books.

Susan Loman, MA, is a professor and associate chair of the Department of Applied Psychology. A Kestenberg Movement Profile analyst, she is considered an expert in this method of describing, assessing, and interpreting nonverbal behavior.

Polly Chandler, MEd, is a lifelong environmental educator. As program director of AuNE’s MBA In Sustainability, she has joined other faculty to educate future community leaders in the areas of sustainable business practices and social responsibility.

ALuMni AChieveMenTWhen it comes to helping others, AuNE alumni exhibit extraordinary courage and ingenuity. A therapist for the nonprofit Maniilaq Association, Osnat Kaspi, MA ’93 braves frigid temperatures in Northwest Alaska, hopping aboard a bush plane or commuting via snowmobile to visit Inupiat Eskimo clients in tiny, remote villages located in the Arctic Circle. Once there, she provides services ranging from recovery support groups to individual counseling. “the area has the highest rate of suicide in the u.S. and alcoholism is rampant,” she says.

“AuNE cares about the world and people. We’re an agent of change.”

David Wiley, Ph.D. ’01, research coordinator for the Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary in Scituate, Massachusetts, received the u.S. Commerce Department’s Gold Medal for his work with whale migration, ocean, and shipping patterns. Although he had been studying whales for nearly 30 years, his experience studying conflict resolution at AUNE helped him persuade the fishing industry to adopt a smaller shipping lane into and out of Boston Harbor that would be safer for whales, reducing the risk of accidents by a mammoth 81 percent.

”The quality of the faculty drove me to the interview and from the interview it was obvious that i‘d gain a broad perspective not only from the faculty, but from other students. To have such a faculty so close to me, i would have been crazy not to take advantage of it.“

Liz MacDonald AUNE Certificate program in Autism Spectrum Disorders ‘07

“i laugh when people refer to this as an ‘alternative’ kind of MbA. This program teaches the standard for what people should know – the triple bottom line should be common.everything you hear about saving our planet, about finite resources and accounting for them – this program reconciles that with good business.”

commitment,” said Kim Horton, AuM Director of Development and Alumni Relations.

Fueled by a second consecutive Ohio Campus Compact grant, AuM continues its successful Pay It Forward student philanthropy project that gives the students the authority to award grants to deserving not-for-profit agencies. While countless families benefit from these efforts, the students learn in a powerfully experiential way what philanthropy really requires.

healthcare advocacy, sustainability, and a new focus on integral studies mark the evolution at the yellow springs campus.

PersonALWhen Dr. Fishbein was inaugurated as AuM’s second president in June 2010 with a commitment to social justice, he featured three regional not-for-profit organizations. His team arranged to proclaim Community Service Awareness Day to be observed on the June 12 anniversary. “Antioch embraces social justice and CSAD adds a permanent marker to that

MidWesT

on the western gateway of yellow springs, ohio, Antioch university Midwest serves critical needs and emerging social demands. its program in special needs supplies qualified teachers to serve our most

vulnerable students. A distinctive program in sustainability is regionally unique at the baccalaureate level. And a new professional development program in health Care Advocacy will help both patients and doctors navigate the complex interactions of choice and cost.

“Completing my degree at Antioch university Midwest is the single greatest thing i have accomplished for myself, those i care about, and ultimately humanity. i learned that by following my life‘s passion that i actually could make a difference in my work, community, and life.”

Lana Rotellini

AuM’s newest undergraduate major in Sustainability is the work of Dr. Joseph Cronin. While the concept of a program in Sustainability is not unique, the personal commitment that drives Dr. Cronin is very much a part of what he brings to his students, in and out of the classroom. “Sustainability will be a passionate program, because Joe is passionate; grounded in fascination and an abiding concern for our future because Joe is fascinated and concerned about the human future,” said Fishbein.

ProfessionALProf. Michele Nobel and her colleagues in teacher education at AUM serve more than a quarter of the AuM student body in the deeply challenging and often very personal field of working with children with physical and mental disabilities. this Master’s program offers students a choice between Mild to Moderate and Moderate to Severe concentrations. Most of all, it teaches its students and graduates a special humility in the face of the lively and persevering children in their charge.

PoWerfuLBarbara Feind is a student in AUM’s Conflict Analysis and Engagement program. She liked what she saw – so much so that she has invested in the financial support of the Feind Institute for Research into Integral Conflict at AuM. Institute director and program chair Richard McGuigan, who worked with Feind to make it happen, notes, “It’s exceptional for us; for the first time we can support original papers and projects to develop a whole new theory of conflict.”

Some conflicts are of ideas, sometimes the conflicts put us at war with injuries, infections, or life-threatening diseases. Modern medicine and the modern health care industry now offer a staggering array of options and choices, far beyond the capacity of most people to select wisely. Healthcare Consumer Advocacy will prepare professionals to help patients make wise choices and health care facilities to optimize their service. Jane Brown, head of the program, is committed to the service that she can provide to her students and those whose lives they will touch.

seAsoned And ATTenTive fACuLTyJim Malarkey recently spoke on the mysteries and challenges of Islam. Julie Biddle continues her research into Reggio Emilia, an approach to preschool and primary education. McGuigan is also involved in the evolution of the graduate management program into a leadership curriculum that can serve multiple fields. Diane Nelson is working to bring the 4/5 school endorsement to the Dayton region.

Ausb focuses on the Antioch tradition of requiring all students to accomplish an internship before graduation.

nancy Leffert ⁄ President

CoMMiTMenT To The CoMMon goodAll candidates for bachelor’s degrees at AuSB participate in a Service-Learning Internship Program that involves working with community service agencies, such as the Nuclear Peace Foundation, Habitat for Humanity, Family Service, and dozens of others. “Not only do they practice and learn about community service, but they bring it back into the classroom,” says Steve Weir, Director of Enrollment and Financial Aid. Established in 1977, AuSB has grown deep roots, both in terms of

the classes it offers and outreach into the community. Its unique Bridge Program allows qualifying community college transfer students additional course units toward their bachelor’s degrees, greatly reducing the cost of their education. the Bridge Program also works for those who may have been out of school for an extended period and want to finish their degrees. Students from Santa Barbara City College attend the Santa Barbara campus, but others enroll through the Allan Hancock Community College campus about an hour away.

Located within walking distance of the area’s restaurants, shops, and galleries – and close to its beautiful beaches and mountain ranges – Antioch university

santa barbara focuses on local residents and an increasing number of commuters from nearby communities.

“Ausb is an educational adventure your heart will fully miss after you have graduated.”

“The bA Program prepared me to achieve a personal potential i never dreamed existed.”

“i have grown personally and immeasurably as a student practitioner in psychology.”

“i enjoy the small classes and caring faculty.”

rooTed in exPerienCeAt AuSB, academic programs are designed with real world applications in mind. In response to the growing demand for bilingual mental health professionals in southern California, AuSB introduced a clinical concentration in Latino Mental Health in the Masters in Clinical Psychology program. In addition to the courses required for licensure, students take classes focused on the needs of the Latino population.

A diverse CoMMuniTy“Overall, we strive to reach students who would not otherwise have access to higher education,” observes Weir. With a student population of about 400, it is the smallest of AU’s five campuses and more than 70 percent of AUSB students receive financial aid. “Our goal for the campus is to mirror the diversity of our community,” adds Weir. Most students are working adults seeking new careers or upward mobility that is facilitated by advanced degrees. Students range in age from 23 to 70, with the average being 35.

seAsoned And ATTenTive fACuLTyAfter 23 years of teaching, Dick Morrow, chair of the undergraduate program, recently retired. He and other AuSB faculty have been instrumental in the campus’s growth and development. “Being able to teach motivated students in small classes in a school that values the learning experience ... it’s like being in teacher’s heaven,” he observes.

ALuMni AChieveMenTAuSB has a vital, varied, and committed group of alumni. they include Carol Fornhan, MBA, who is a member of the Academy of Health and has devoted her career to creating information systems for mental health, Medicaid and substance abuse. Chair of the Pierson-Lovelace Foundation, Lillian Pierson Lovelace, BA ’89, received an honorary Doctorate from Antioch Los Angeles. She is on the governing boards of the Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art, the Georgia O’Keefe Museum, and many others. Dee Dee Barrett, BA, is a self-made business woman who, inspired by her daughter, returned to college to complete her degree in Liberal and Communication Studies. She is a philanthropist devoted to nonprofit work. Rodney Gustafson, MA ’01, spent most of his performing career with the American Ballet theatre. In 1994, he founded State Street Ballet in Santa Barbara, which today performs throughout the world.

“i believe we can serve the santa barbara and central coast communities by using three strategies summarized by these words: ACCess, engAge, and CoLLAborATe.“

CoMMiTMenT To The CoMMon goodLocally, the campus actively participates in the Los Angeles PRIDE Parade, AIDS Walk LA, Earth Day events, and the South Central Farmers’ organic vegetable cooperative, which increases public access to locally grown food.

the Bridge Program, AuLA’s humanities education program for low-income adults, celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2009 and continues to provide a nine-month interdisciplinary curriculum, granting up to

12 units of college credit upon completion. Many Bridge graduates go on to earn degrees, launch businesses, and inspire family members and friends to attend college.

the Education Department bestows the Horace Mann upstanders Children’s Literature Award each year to a piece of children’s fiction which reinforces the importance of encouraging young readers to recognize injustice and take a stand against it. this year’s award was presented to Paul Fleischman on June 28 at the campus’s 3rd annual Children's Literature Conference.

Los AngeLes

Antioch university Los Angeles (AuLA) continues to build upon its 38-year history of service to the diverse communities of greater Los Angeles. examples abound which illustrate the Los Angeles campus community living the Antioch university mission of fostering social engagement, global citizenship and leadership.

gLobAL CiTiZensAuLA was invited to attend the Clinton Global Initiative university for the second consecutive year – a meeting for students, national youth organizations, and university officials to discuss solutions to pressing global issues. the campus was named to the President’s Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll for the third year in a row. the keynote address at the October 2009 Presidential Retreat of the North American chapter of the International Association of university Presidents (IAuP) cited AuLA’s LGBt specialization in the Psychology program as “an innovative and replicable example of an effective avenue for addressing sensitive and ‘little understood’ LGBt issues and concerns internationally.”

ALuMni AChieveMenTsthe newly formed Alumni and Community Advisory Board is a group of volunteers from each AuLA program dedicated to creating an active alumni association. AULA’s award-winning magazine, AULA Connection, and the bi-annual alumni receptions help to strengthen this growing community.

AuLA alumni achievements are vast and impressive. One recent accomplishment of note: MFA in Creative Writing alumna Naomi Benaron won the 2010 Bellwether Prize in Fiction for her novel Running the Rift. The Bellwether Prize advocates serious literary fiction that addresses issues of social justice and the impact of culture and politics on human relationships, and is the largest monetary prize – $25,000 – given for unpublished literature in North America.

orgAniC groWThAuLA’s new Master of Arts in urban Sustainability grew organically in response to the increasing awareness of interconnectivity among environmental, economic and social issues. the innovative new interdisciplinary graduate and certificate programs offer a unique structure to prepare well-informed scholars, community leaders and activists to advocate for sustainable urban policy and social change in the face of the growing global environmental crisis.

the 36 credit graduate program is a low-residency model that will immerse students in a place-based context, foster a systems-thinking approach, and promote community engagement throughout the course of study. The program launched with its first cohort of students in fall 2010.

Looking AheAdNew programs scheduled to launch in the coming year include a Trauma Specialization in the Psychology program, and a “Writing for Young People” concentration in the Creative Writing program. Mission-consistent activities will continue to be a daily part of campus life, and AuLA graduates will join over 6,000 distinguished alumni when they commence on June 26, 2011. the campus’s 40th anniversary, in 2012, promises to be a monumental celebration of AuLA’s enduring presence in the greater Los Angeles community.

Antioch university Seattle continues to introduce many innovations to the Pacific Northwest and is true to its roots in social justice and equality.

CoMMiTMenT To The CoMMon goodthe King County Drug Diversion Court awarded Antioch university Seattle $198,000 to provide mental health services to individuals struggling with mental health issues, addictions and legal difficulties. AUS psychology students and faculty members will assist referred individuals in acquiring skills to resolve mental health issues in their day to day lives through counseling

in the on-campus Counseling and Psychology Clinic. In addition, a new partnership with Seattle’s First Place School, a nonprofit agency that provides education and social services to homeless children, has involved AuS Psy.D. students in a variety of clinical, advocacy and research roles.

rooTed in exPerienCethe AuS School of Education formed a partnership with the Children’s Institute for Learning Differences, a specialized school serving children of all ages with emotional, behavioral, sensory, and neurological learning disorders. the partnership allows students to obtain a master’s with special education endorsement in five quarters and valuable hands-on experience.

Antioch university seattle continues to introduce many innovations to the Pacific northwest and is true to its roots in social justice and equality.

A diverse CoMMuniTyIn 2002, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation selected Antioch university Seattle’s Center for Native Education to develop early college high schools for Native American and other underserved students in the state of Washington. these schools built partnerships with tribal communities, high schools and higher education institutions so students could concurrently earn high school diplomas and up to two years of college credit. the Center received additional funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the Kellogg Foundation, the Lumina Foundation for Education and College Spark Washington to develop early college high schools nationwide. As a result of the Center’s work, high school graduation rates for Native students have increased by 61 percent with the majority of graduates continuing on to college.

seAsoned And ATTenTive fACuLTyCenter for Creative Change faculty Dr. Jonathan Scherch’s focus on bioregionalism and related social, economic, and environmental contexts have led him into tibetan refugee settlements in India. He was invited by the Prime Minister of the tibetan Government-in-Exile, Samdhong Rinpoche, for a third engagement to work with farmers and officials. Jonathan directs Pacific Bamboo Resources, an institute with regional teams and international partners focusing on bamboo agroforestry, advancing food security, eco-restoration, and sustainable livelihoods.

Students learned the importance of community organizing and nonviolence when they accompanied B.A. faculty Mary Lou Finley on her 2010 ‘Civil Rights tour’ of the south. Students meet with 1960’s activists, many of whom are still working in their communities to bring improvements today. Dr. Finley worked as the secretary to the project director of Dr. King’s Chicago Project from 1965-66 and is currently co-editing a book on the social consequences of the Chicago movement’s impact. the Chicago Freedom Movement is best known for its work on housing discrimination, tenant unions, and economic justice issues.

Andrzej bloch ⁄ dean of international education & director of AeA

AEA has been a mainstay of Antioch since it started in the 1950s. AEA has continued to develop and offer high-quality study abroad opportunities in Brazil, Germany, Japan, India, Mali, and multiple countries of Europe. these innovative programs add academic and cultural enhancements to students’ undergraduate experiences.

AEA addresses the university’s core values by providing a commitment to the common good, offering programs rooted in experience, creating diverse communities, employing seasoned and attentive faculty, and offering rich experiences to participating students as they graduate and become productive alumni.

While adjusting to its new position with Antioch university, AEA administrators have explored collab- orative programming with all campuses. AEA and Antioch university Seattle undertook a pilot initiative to develop a bachelor’s degree in Liberal Studies that

allows students to complete their degree requirements during two semesters of study abroad and three quarters on the AuS campus. If successful, this collaborative program will be replicated as an option on all Antioch university campuses. AEA is also exploring the possibility of developing short-term study abroad programs for graduate students.

unfortunately, in spring 2009, the continuing recession showed substantial impact on the recruit- ment of students for the academic year 2009-10. General enrollment of 78 students for 09-10 was lower than anticipated, but budgetary adjustments allowed AEA to maintain programming without any major modifications. When compared with other providers of international education programming in the united States, AEA’s ability to sustain opportunities during the recession is considered an accomplishment.

Through AeA, Antioch university students can take life-changing trips to brazil, germany, Japan, india, Mali, and multiple countries in europe.

AnTioCh eduCATion AbroAd

in today’s world, the experience of studying and living abroad is vital in preparing oneself for successful completion of an undergraduate degree, a graduate program, or a career in the professional world. Antioch education Abroad has smoothly transitioned to become part of Antioch

university with an added focus on the recruitment of students from universities around the united states.

One major unrelated adjustment, however, had to be made. In the early summer of 2009, due to increased terrorist activities in Mali and travel warnings issued by the u.S. Department of State, AEA suspended the Fall 2009 Mali program. AEA continued to recruit for the 2010-11 program, since the State Department modified its travel warning by the end of 2009.

CoMMuniCATing The CAuseWhile recruiting students, AEA has emphasized its organizational change and affiliation with Antioch university by redesigning its publications, website, and recruitment materials, as well as enhancing its search engine optimization efforts.

Plans for the future enhancement of AEA programs continue regarding the initial work with the Seattle campus on a bachelor’s degree, with the goal of enrolling

a small class of students in Fall 2010. Also, in early summer 2010, AEA began consulting with Antioch university New England regarding a short-term study abroad option in either Sweden or Brazil.

In addition, in 09-10, AEA explored the possibilities for two new programs. AEA began collaborating with Northwestern university in Xi’an City, China, and with the university of Buea in Cameroon. Recruitment for both programs will start during the 2010-11 academic year.

Antioch Education Abroad allows students to study in Mali, Brazil, Germany, Japan, India, and multiple countries in Europe. In Mali, students live with local families to further explore the culture and to create stronger bonds.

“somewhere near the end of the semester, i was sitting in class with a very schwäbisch teacher who speaks reALLy fast. And it hit me, ‘i totally understand what he’s saying,’ and it reminded me how far i’ve come.”

Todd Sprinkel Northwestern University, Antioch in Germany program

“i have developed more intellectually/spiritually over the course of this semester than any other three-month period of my life. As challenging as it was, i‘ve come out wiser.” Timothy Martin

DePauw University, Buddhist Studies in India program

“This program offers incredible access to conservation biologists and other brazilians working in the environmental field, and the opportunity to really delve into environmental and social issues important to brazil.“

an array of diverse occupations as evident from the breadth of dissertation topics researched by graduates of the Program. Recent alumni dissertations explored subject matter ranging from public service employees’ experiences in communities of practice, the leadership self-identity of women college presidents, analysis of the experience of engaging undergraduate students in service-learning curriculum and expressive arts, and leadership and change in social justice teacher education.

The Phd in Leadership and Change Program produces lifelong learners who are socially engaged as global citizens and stewards.

Antioch university’s PhD in Leadership and Change Program continues to contribute to the historic mission of the university by producing lifelong learners who are socially engaged as global citizens and stewards.

the PhD in Leadership and Change Program aims to prepare students to be effective scholar-practitioners in order to apply their research to leading change in the organizations and communities in which they live and work. this integration of theory and practice spans

Antioch university’s Phd in Leadership and Change Program combines faculty-mentored, individualized learning with a challenging, interdisciplinary core curriculum. The Program is focused on understanding and leading organizational change within the context of each individual student’s professional experience. The goal of the

Program is to educate professionals from various occupational sectors to be reflective practitioners, principled leaders and engaged researchers.

Phd in LeAdershiP & ChAnge ProgrAM

“The value of critical scholarship lies in its potential to educate, disturb, liberate, uplift and inspire others to take more just action on behalf of humanity. Leading for and through change in education must be a mission of teaching freedom, hope and critical consciousness ... i owe a great deal of my personal conscientiousness to the extraordinary Antioch Program and faculty.”

Dr. Lillian Drakeford, Program Graduate

In April 2010, the Program celebrated the positive conclusion of an extensive external review in which the reviewers concluded that “the PhD Program is serving as a national model to inform the continuing discussion of the nature of doctoral education in the united States and around the world.” the reviewers noted many areas of Program strength that echo the core values that are central to the university as a whole. In particular, the Program was acclaimed for its national recognition, innovative design, strong retention and graduation rates that exceed national averages, as well as, the core faculty commitment to facilitating student development through collaborative learning paradigms and intensive faculty-student mentoring.

the Program’s success is evident in many ways. the PhD Program has a steady 70% graduation rate for the first several cohorts, which exceeds the national average for doctoral completion rates by over 20% percent. Recently gathered data also shows that of those students that do graduate from the PhD in Leadership and Change Program, approximately one-third do

so in four years, with another third after five years. Another aspect of the success of the PhD in Leadership and Change Program is student research. As of June 2010, five student dissertations have been awarded the Ohio Electronic theses and Dissertation Association’s Outstanding Scholarship Award and the Networked Digital Library of theses and Dissertation Innovative Electronic theses and Dissertations Award (EtD), which recognizes student efforts to transform the genre of the print dissertation through the use of innovative software to create cutting edge EtDs.

In accordance with Antioch university’s mission to foster innovative experiential learning, the Program plans to increasingly build upon this strong record of alumni achievement with the incorporation of additional technological enhancements in the coming years. Specifically, the Program looks forward to transitioning to new, more robust technologies to increasingly improve the learning and communication within the university as a whole.

During the 2008-09 fiscal year, membership for WYSO expanded by 14 percent. that number grew even larger during the Fall 2009 membership drive, when 600 new enrollees were added.

General Manager Neenah Ellis, who has 30 years of public radio experience, joined the staff at the end of 2008. She works closely with other staff members to sustain the growth in fundraising and memberships that began before her arrival.

In Spring 2009, WYSO received two major grants from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. the American Archive Pilot Project will allow us to begin to catalog and digitize our vast audio tape collection, which dates back to WYSO’s first broadcast in 1958. the other grant is for a comprehensive reporting project called “Facing the Mortgage Crisis,” which will allow us to engage with many Miami Valley organizations to present many programs and web resources related to the mortgage foreclosure crisis.

In Spring 2010, WYSO collaborated with StoryCorps, a national oral history project, to collect oral history interviews in the Miami Valley. this partnership resulted in a year’s worth of program- ming on WYSO called “Miami Valley StoryCorps.”

WYSO is now planning for more locally produced programming, continued upgrades to its online presence and collaboration with Antioch university campuses. In addition, administrators presented the Antioch university Board of Governors in June 2010 with a feasibility study for financing and creating a new, state-of-the-art broadcast facility for WYSO.

the station continues contributing toward Antioch University’s five core values, providing an ongoing commitment to the common good, staying rooted in experiences, bringing together a diverse community, providing attentive management, and offering a vehicle of communication for Antioch university alumni.

With the success of a growing membership and obtaining federal grants, WYSO is focused on the following goals:• Further engaging listeners with public events, and

programs.

• Enhancing the support, and engagement with WYSO volunteer music hosts.

• Increasing Web site, program streaming, and social media capabilities.

• Increasing volunteer engagement in day-to-day operations.

• Creating new, locally produced programs, and program segments.

• Continued reporting on mortgage foreclosure, and consumer finances with additional grant money.

• Collaborating with StoryCorps, a national oral history project that visited the Miami Valley during 2010.

• Continuing the American Archive Pilot Project.

• Bringing more local voices to the air with the beginning of “Community Voices” a radio production training project.

• Revitalizing WYSO internships, and Federal Work Study programs.

Wyso continues to grow its membership as programs are strengthened and additional partnerships formed.
